New Zealand Colored Race Is Fast Sue
cnmhing Before the Whites,

v
The Maorls of New Zealand seem to
be doomed to extinction In spite of tho
fact that all the conditions surrounding
them appear to be favorable to their
survival. The quarrel between the
races is ended, and large tracts OF land
are reserved for them. The young men
are educated, 80 per cent. of them being
able to read and write. Their chiefs in
many cases derive large incomes from
rents of land, and are represented in
the legislature. A great Maori college
stands at Te Auti, Hawkes. Bay, and
not few Of the cleverer Maori youths
have passed through the classes Of the
New Zealand university. And yet the
Maoris, under that mysterious law
which makes q colored race vanish be.
fore the breath Of the all-conquering
whites, are passing away.
A conference Of educated Maoris was
held short time ago, and papers were
read on the condition and prospects OF
the race. These are now published in
pamphlet form, and make q very mel.
ancholy bit of literature 1T is declared
that 30 per cent. Of educated Maoris 60
back from their schools to mere saw
agery. The race, these representative
Maoris declare, is lower both In morals
and In vitality than 1t has ever yet
been, and threatens to perish. Yet ply

session Thurday, September 22, at
4 p. m in the parlor of Cosmopoli-

Vice President, in the chair. The
advisibility of holding the usual

tail and the decision reached by the
ladies', was that owing to clrcum-
stances of which the members were
all fully cognizant, the fifth annual
fair should be postponed until 1899.
The matter was put before the
house in due form and unanimously
carried. A vote of thanks was
rendered Mrs. Anna Mccartney for
her ever cordial reception and use
of the parlor as meeting place for
the Society, Also a vote of thanks
to Mr.. Frank Whitley for his kind
ness in offering the ladies the free
use of the park auditorium in which
to hold their exhibit. The ladies
desire to thank their friends in
general who have always responded
so literally by their attendance and
otherwise, and the city editors
especially remembered for their
many kind responses to the calls
upon them. After many express
sions of regret upon their inability
to make their usual exhibit the
Floral Society adjourned to meet
