Mr. Leadingham says: "Heathanism also is
a foe which Christianity must still encoun-

a recent trip to the Island of Hawaii, Mr..
Leadingham saw on one side of the road a

Two Overdue Stenmers.

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-Considerable COM
ment is being made among shipping men as
to the whereabouts of the British freight
steamer Almida, which has been out thirty
five days from Shields, for New York. She
sailed from Shields on Dec. 10, having called
there for coal on her way from Hamburg
for New York with a general cargo and
crew of twenty-five men, and was reported
passing Dunnet Head Scotland, on Dec. q.
Since then nothing mas been heard of her.
The weather on the Atlantic has been so bad
that there was good reason to believe she
may have gone to the bottom, but when the
steamer Britannia came into pore last week
thirty-six days out from Shields it aroused
the hope that the Amida had a chance yet.
The Almida is a staunch steel vessel of 1,542
tons.
The Kentigern, another vessel that sailed
from Shields is also a cause of anxiety by
reason of her long time out. She left
Shields on Dec. q in command of Captain
Fairweather. She has not yet been sighted.
She should have done the voyage in much
less than the thirty-two days she has been
at sea. She was coming over in ballast and
had on board thirty officers and men when
she left Shields.
