confusion.
A school girl named Dollie Mitchell
screamed and fell to the sidewalk.

the undersigned, being uesirous OF pro-
Viding FOR their sons thorough and
comprehensive education In English,
raised In pledges, from August to De-
cember, sufficient funds to Justify them
In undertaking to erect commodious
buildings for this purpose In Kamakeia.
The contract was let and the main
building partially completed, when the
plague broke out and interrupted the
work. AS you well know. our country
men have been the greatest sufferers
from this epidemic and the fires con-
nected with 1t. Consequently, those
who generously subscribed toward the
school enterprise, being called upon to
donate large sums for the relief of their
fellow-countrymen who have, suffered
severely from the fire, find themselves
unable to fulfill their pledges at pres
ent. The main building Is now On the
point Of completion, and the contractor,
himself homeless is in great need of his
money.
In this emergency, ana because we
believe you recognize that our motives
In undertaking this enterprise were
philanthropic, our object a commend
able one, and that we are in no wise at
fault for the straits in which we now
find ourselves; We therefore solicit such
contributions to our present needs as
your benificence will allow. Send ali
