MISSION CHILDREN.
Papers Read at a Meeting Held Last
Saturday Night.

There was a rather small attend
ance at the meeting of the Hawaiian
Mission children's society held in Ka-
waiahao seminary Saturday evening
Professor Theo. Richards was not
present, so the matter of libraries for
country towns went over to the next
meeting.
One of the papers read was an essay
of an Indian woman who had been
Christianized in England. declaring
that Theosophy is a corruption of the
religions of India as she knew them all
her life
second paper was part of the
diary of William Richards. who was
sent from Honolulu some fifty years
ago to represent the Hawaiian govern
ment in Paris. 1t contained an account
of his meeting with daughters of La
tayette, an interesting historical rem
iniscence. w. f. Rowell read the pa

ton.
ton.

At meeting of the temperance
committee of the Y. NJ. c. \. together
with the additional members from the
outside appointed some days ago,
held at 4:30 yesterday afternoon, a
petition, or rather a set of resolutions,
received unanimous endorsement and
will not go before general meeting
to be held one week from tomorrow
evening.
The resolutions are short and COM
bine but one idea or purpose. The pc
tition to Congress is that in forming
new laws for Hawaii that liquor and
gambling in all forms be prohibited.
The present situation in both matters
is briefly stated.
This document. coming from the Y.
NJ. c. A.. must necessarily have the
full endorsement of that organization.
For the reason that it is subject to
revision by the general meeting it is
not yet to be given out for publica-
ton When finally passed it will be
addressed to some member of Con-
gress, with the request that it be pre-
scented at the proper time.
The Million club, which began the
agitation for prohibition in the Ha-
waiian Islands, is combination of
the |. o. G. T. and other temperance
organizations of the mainland. The
head of it is in Chicago. Its principal
scheme for work is to secure 1000. 900
votes in the United States by the next
election and make an effort to swing
the polls.
When the expansion policy of the
United States came out this organiza-
ton began Immediately to plan pro-
hibition for the territories. Hawaii
was the first considered. Letters re-
celved here explaining the platform
or the Million club set the forces to
work.

HIGHLAND CANE.

Captain l.. Ahlborn has made "A COM
plete success of his highland cane on
the Lahaina plantation. When he
planted it he was laughed at by sew
eral planters. They said the land
would not hold water and the cane
would dry up. There will be a har-
vest in January. \ report comes from
Lahaina that the yield will equal that
of the best Eva lands.
This cane is planted in the rocks at
a height of nearly 700 feet. 1t is face
tiously remarked that it was planted
with a pick and crowbar, which by
the way is not far from the truth.
The experiment has been watched
by all Maui for several months. No
one except Captain Ahlborn ever be-
lived it would prove a success.

much like the proceedings in police
courts all over the English speaking

the principal causes of arrest. There
are assaults, and one case for counter

been brought before one of the courts.

BOtkin VS.. BurtOn-Who Liesp

On Saturday night, Oct %, ]. R. Bur-
ton made speech in Topeka in which he
made avicious attack upon my son Ralph,
and declared that l had showed true pop-
ulistic ingratitude by abusing President
Mckinley after he had extended great
kindness to me. Accordingly l address,
ed the following note to the Kansas CITY
Star which had published a report of the
speech:
The above is a portion of the Stars
report OF ]. R. Burtons speech in Topeka
last Saturday night When he charges
me with having abused President Nc
hlnley he tells deliberate falsehood as
every one knows who has heard nv
references to the president in reunion
speeches, campaign speeches, and in pri-
vate conversations. In his attack upon
my son, Ralph, he is perfectly safe, as
the boy is but little past sixteen wears
old, and now lies at Winfield a mere
skeleton of his former self, not able even
to turn himself in bed. Mr.. Burton has
had ample opportunity to meet ATTORNEY
General Boyle and Assistant ATTORNEY
General Smelling, both full grown men
and IN fairly good health. He would
show himself less coward by accepting
their challenges than by his inhuman at,
tack upon my helpless boy, whose regi-
mental and company officers have sent
me unsolicited declaring that he per-
formed all the duties of true soldier
although the Presidents order was not
fully obeyed by the mastering officer"

lowing card to the Kansas City Journal

The magnificent building at the corner
of Eighteenth and Arch streets, Philadel-
phia, is a monument that tells what a
great charity is the Women's Christian
Association of the Quaker City.
The superintendent of the W. c. A.
home is the accomplished woman whose
portrait is printed here, Miss Katherine
Kennedy. What she has done and what
she is doing for the benefit of other
women commands the highest respect and
admiration.
In all other institutions of this kind
more attention is given every year to
teaching the laws of health and right
living, physically as we'll as morally.
The health of communities is more and
more frequently a subject of attention
from clergymen and teachers. An all

more difficult to be hopeful and cheerful
