amend the charter of the South Caro-
lima Extension Railroad company was

out the enacting words of the bill.
Senator Archer said that the SEN
ate and the people of South Carolina

several months. Under the present
law the board of control had the
right to put dispensary in every
county in this State save in those
counties that had prohibition before
1898.
There was no provision for coun-
ties to be relieved of the dispensary
if four ffths of that county desired
it. This was the point at which his
amendment was aimed The people
of any county should have the op.
portunity to get rid of the dispensary

A WARM WELCOME
Hawaiian Ministers Greet
Venerable kekeIa.
A Scene of Touching EnthusiaSm-The Aged
Warrior Tells Of His Doings-Still
Full of Vigor.

The Hawaiian ministers of the Oahu
Association met at 9 O'Clock Thursday
for their second meeting of this semi
annual session. The business of the
meeting was the matter of Sunday
schools, but 1t was evident that some
thing of unusual Importance was likely
TO happen. for several besides the del
egates were seated in the large audi
ence room of the Kaumakapili church.
There were several of the kamaainas
present, including Judge Judd, Profess
sor Alexander, DR.. Bishop and several
ladies, besides three of the pastors of
the foreign churches of the city
All at once the regular business was
suspended, as the bent form OF the aged
Kekela came up the aisle. The song
that broke forth was one of welcome,
and it was sung as few such bodies of
ministers could.
The good old man, who has not heard
Hawaiian song sung in that way for
twenty years, was SO much affected
that he could not control his voice to
speak at once. And many others found
themselves choking in sympathy.
Forty-six years in the service and then
to hear the language and song of the
home land!
When he spoke, though, it was with
clear ringing voice that told of con-
siderable vitality still left That fact
would have been developed by the
frequent insistence in his remarks upon
his desire TO return to the MarQuesas
Islands,; not to rest and die in peace,
but to continue his work.
Warm words of welcome came from
DR.. Bishop in eulOgy and felicitatiOn,
which left no doubt in the minds of
any of his sincerity.
Rev. Mr.. Kincaid spoke for the Cen
trail Union church, as did Mr.. Gardner
and DR.. Harris for other bodies here.
Hawaiian he gets as near to the hearts
of the native as a "haOle" may, and
his "reminiscences and words of encour-
agement followed close upon the greet
ing of the aged Rev. Waiaman, which
had left a large number of the SYM
pathetic audience with streaming eyes.
When the aged warrior finally retired
after stirring song, and the business
of the morning was finally resumed,
there was manifest mellowness in the
attitude of the delegates. which lasted
| through the session.

Out of the numerous good stories
that have come to light of the incidents
in the life of the aged missionary, Ke-
kela, who returned on the Tahitienne
Wednesday from the Marquesas, there
is one that has proven most interest
ing.
When Kekela arrived on the Mar
quesas, in the early sos, he found a
ing the islands. Their native savagery
had been added to by the white trad
ers. who came and took away to far off
plantations in Hawaii, Mexico and Aus
tralia their brothers and fathers by
means disgraceful and cowardly. These
traders. known as "blackbirders, came
Quesans.
Some years after the arrival of Ke-
kela vessel in this traffic had
swooped down upon the island and
taken off a large number of men and
women and many young children,
whom their parents had refused to de-
sert. Then had the king of the tribe
sworn a dreadful oath that no longer
should traders be allowed to land up
on the island. Its coast was to be tabu
to any white man. And he published
TO all the people that should any for
eigner be found upon the land of his
people that that man should die. The
manner of his execution should be the
pot. Whether fricasseed, fried or
boiled that man would be the piece de
resistance of luau nui.
Sad, indeed. was Kekela when he
heard OF this cruel verdict on the part
of the monarch OF his adopted coun-
try. Sadder yet was his heart next
week, when, going into the village on
his tour of salvation, he saw bound be-
side the matched throne room of the
King a poor shipwrecked mariner, the
last of an entire crew who had per-
ished miserably on a reef near the
island. Detected and forlorn the sailor
had given up all hope and he despaired
of any end but that of furnishing a
dejeuner for the savages who danced
about him.
Kekela, even in the short time that
had elapsed since his arrival in the
land, had great influence with the King
and he determined without a moments
hesitation TO use it for the benefit of
the unfortunate castaway. In the aud
fence which was granted him, the King
refused absolutely to grant pardon to
the man. He must suffer for the cruel
and inhuman practices of his race and
be a warning to others. Kekela plead
ed with the obdurate monarch Upon
his knees the powerful young mission
airy, then in the prime of manhood,
spoke of the lessons which he had al
ready set before the Marquesans: of
mercy, charity and forbearance. These
We're of no avail. H'gher and higher
rose the chant of destruction from the
natives outside. More earnest yet
grew the prayers and entreaties of Ke-
kela. One after another the faithful
Hawaiian offered the goods and dear
chattels he had brought from his home
IN the Oahu valley. All were refused.
Kekela began to lose hope. Suddenly
thought came to him. He had
noticed the envious looks of the mon
arch when the fine whale boat had
