HAWAIIAN RELIEF BALkS
DOES NOT FAVOR IDEA OF THE
ASSOCIATED CHARITIES.
Meeting Ends without Action-Mem-
bers Fail to See the Benefit to be
Derived from Consolidation.

After two hours debate this MORN
ing on whether or not to enter the AS
sociated Charities organization the Ha-
waiian Relief society broke up in a row.
to use a little French.
The meeting, which was called for
the purpose of electing permanent del
egates to the central body, was pres
sided over by Mrs S. @. Allen. Mrs;
George G. Beckley officiated as secre7e.
tary. Work was hardly begun when
numerous objections to the proposal
were raised. Discussion lasted until
noon when adjournment was taken to
next Thursday morning.
The ladies at the meeting were at a
loss to see the benefit to be derived
from joining the association. Their
work is strictly among Hawaiians.
They claim to have investigating com
mittees which are doing perfect work.
TO them it appeared that the system
would Complicate matters somewhat,
and at the same time prove of no saw
ing or benefit Said an officer
We cover our whole field now. Our
system is so thoroughly organized that
we are seldom, if ever, imposed upon.
We distribute no money. Our scheme
of charitable work is precisely that
proposed by the association. In other
words, we give tickets for supplies and
pay for what other assistance Is re-
quired. We also visit and supply flow
ers or such other small things when
deemed best"
During the meeting an officer of the
proposed association was telephoned to
and asked the question: "If the Ha-
waiian Relief society should eXpend all
of it's funds would the association take
up and carry on it's present work."
The answer was: Under our pres
ent plan | am afraid not"
A bolt of the Hawaiian Relief socte-
ty would be a serious matter This Is
the second richest charitable assocIa-
tion in the city. The Strangers Friend
is first with a bank account of $500.
A large bank account is also kept by
the Hawaiian Relief. 1t is feared that
| if these societies fail to join some of
| the smaller ones may do the same.
From all that can be gathered, howev-
| er, the Strangers Friend is favorable
| to joining the association. There was
| not a quorum present for the meeting
of this society yesterday morning.

MURRAY ISLANDS.
Backward Condition of Aboriginal In
habitants of the Group.

An expedition recently sent out from
England to the Murray Islands has
brought some interesting information
about the islanders. These primitive
people, it appears, cannot count high
er than two. Netat is their word for
one, and nets for two. When they
want to say three they say one-two
(netats-nets), and when they want to
say four they say two-two (nets-nets)
Higher figures than these they eX
press by means of their bodies. Thus,
they began to count from the little fin
ger of the left hand and preceding then
to the other fingers they successfully
reach the wrist, the arm the shoulder,
the collar bone, the chest, the right
shoulder, the right arm, the right wrist,
and finally the fingers of the right
hand. In this way they can count as
high as thirty-one.
When they want to express a high
er number than this they can only use
the word gaire, which signifies many.
This ancient method of counting how
ever is fast disappearing, thanks to
the strenuous efforts which the Eng
lish are making to teach the Islanders
the ordinary rules of arithemetic. Eth
nologists therefore are especially glad
that information about this ancient
method of counting has come to them
just as it was on the point of disap-
pearing forever.

CREM NATION.
Islanders Desire to Use Crematory if
Established.

Editor Star: The crematory in Homo
lulu has become q live issue" evil
IDENTIFY Would 1t not be well to inter-
est the people living on the other Is
lands? How many of those who live
on the other Islands own land enough
to even bury their loved one, and how
many like to think of putting them to
their final rest in a plantation lot that
some day may be put into cane or be-
come lost to sight?
| think that you will find a great
many, especially on the other Islands,
who would favor crematory at Homo
lulu to which the earthly remains of
loved ones could be sent and disposed
of as all remains should be-by fire. l
think you will find many HawaiianS
in favor of a crematory instead of be-
ing against It, and certainly a crema-
tory properly constructed is the cheap
est mode of funeral. One casket can
be used over and over again, or loan
ed by the crematory to those who can
not afford to transport the remains
from the house to the crematory.
Why not interest the Island people
in such a scheme and see how much
stock could be subscribed I will be
willing to contribute $500 toward n
fund that will be used In honest en-
deavor to establish a crematory at

the effect that we have twenty-five

make room for a carload of '99 Sterl-

sary to order them in carload lots in

Such IL tho Report From Strike Nsar
Ashiand-S2O.OO 900 This season.

Ashland, Sept. 23.--One thousand
dollars in gold was secured in two pans
Of rock pounded up and washed out
one day last week at the Angle and
Brown strike on Mount Sterling, about
20 miles south Of Ashland, and Just
over the California line. An ashland
man who has just returned from the
scene is responsible for the statement,
which Is not doubted by those who are
acquainted with the richness OF the
lead, which is known as the Klondike.
This claim is located near the summit
Of Mount Sterling, at an elevation OF
nearly 5000 feet above sea level, and
was accidentally discovered about a
year ago by Messrs. Angle and Brown,
the latter being pocket hunter" OF
experience. small piece OF rich float
was found, and in tracing it up almost
the first srtoke of the pick into the
ground uncovered streak OF very rich
quartz and located the claim for them.
They took out several thousand dollars
in gold last year before the SHOWS of

gold being pounded out in hand NOR
tar. This season it is estimated that
the lucky miners have taken out not
less than $50, 900 in like manner. and
how long their lead will last no one
pretends to know.
They have run cut into the noun
tain for short distance and have only
followed the pay streak thus far TO
depth OF 90 feet. The gold is found in
a porphyry formation or ledge which
lies on the bedrock and pitches into
the mountain at a considerable angle.
The find has led to q large number of
prospectors trying to duplicate it in
the same section, but as yet without
success.

STRUCK A REEF.
Transport Leelenaw Kept Ahoat by
working Her Pumps Steadily.

Transport Leelenaw Kept Ahoat by
Working Her Pumps Steadily.
San Francisco, Sept. 26.-The United
States transport Leelenaw came into
port today with the pumps steadily at
work to overcome the effect of hole
in the ships bottom. The Leelenaw
sailed for Manila September 2, with
cargo of commissary stores and 200
horses for army use. After leaving this
port distemper was developed among
the horses, and so many OF the animals
died that the Leelenaw put into Homo
lulu and landed there the commissary
storse and the surviving horses. The
transport then started on the return
trip to this city.
During the three days prior to reach
ing this port, so thick and constant was
the fog that no observations could be
taken, and, having lost her bearings,
the Leelenaw struck reef near Mon
tara, 30 miles south of this port, last
evening She was for five hours stuck
fast ON the rocks, and when she finally
fioated off at high tide it was found that
the jagged rock had torn hole in her
bottom.
1t will be necessary for the Leelenaw
to go in drydock for a considerable
overhauling. In addition to the leak,
the vessel was badly straiaed by her
experience ON the reef.

Edmonton Relief Expedition.

Seattle, Sept. 25.-Moved at last by
the appeals of the relatives and friends
of the misguided men, so many OF
whom met death or encountered hard
ships and sufferings almost beyond hui
man endurance, Canadian officials have
dispatched relief expedition over the
Edmonton trail route. The rescuers
left Dawson early in September. 1t is
a splendidly equipped body, led by
Corporal Kerving and Constable Boke.
The voyage will probably require seven
months. The expedition left Dawson,
going down the Yukon to the mouth OF
Porcupine river. Thence the voyagers
go up the Porcupine to the portage OF
Bell and West Rat rivers, where they
cross the mountains to the Pelly river,
thence portage to the Mackenzie and
down that stream to Fort Mcpherson.
