Rev. DIR. McGIynn.

however, and until Saturday night appeared
TO be holding his own and gradually re-
salhed strength. He was able to sit by his
bedside for a few minutes each day, but
was never able to leave his room.
Dr, McGlynn was siXty-tWo years old last
september: When he was stricken he was
greatly emaciated by his long Illness
Archbishop Corrigan arrived at $40 and
proceeded at once to st. Mary's rectory.
He expressed deep regret at DR.. McGlynn's
death. and said that he was especially
sorry that he had not arrived before the
end came. He was much moved when he
entered the chamber of death and looked
on the face of the dead, and commented
sadly on the dead priests emacfated ap-
pearance He knelt, with other clergy, and
Salo prayers. No arrangements have yet
been made for the funeral
Rev. Edward McGlynn was born in New
York city September 81, 1897. His primary
education he received in the public schools
of that city. From 1851 until 1860 he
studied theology at the College of the Prop
uganda in Rome. After a public examina-
ton there he received his doctorate. He
was ordained to the priesthood In 1860.
When he returned to the United States he
came hospital chaplain. In 1866 Father
Cummings, the pastor of st. Stephens
Church in New York city, died, and DR..
McGlynn was appointed to succeed him.
While In charge here he won the heartiest
sympathy of the people by his eloquence
and sympathy.
During the spring of 1887 DR.. McGlynn
helped to found and became the president
of the Anti-Poverty Society, and was
conspicuous figure by his Sunday evening
N,ctures before that body in the Academy
of Music in New York
DR.. McGlynn was brought into disfavor
with the church authorities because of his
unwilingness to establish parochial school
in connection with his church. He claimed
that the public schools were safe for the
children Of the Roman Catholics. During
the mayoralty canvass of 1886 he supported
Henry George. His remarks in favor of
Mr.. Georges land theories from public
platforms resulted in his being censured by
the archbishop of the diocese. In spite of
this action he persisted in making his views
public. and the case was referred to Rome
for action. In the meanwhile he was re-
moved by the archbishop from the charge

of st. Stephens He was summoned to ap-
pear at the Vatican. He ignored the papal
demands. and was accordingly eXcommuui-
Gated The sentiment in his favor was very
strong, as many of his parishioners shared
his views. Dr. McGlynn lectured in many
cities of the United States upon the SUBJ
ject of his economic opinions He also pub
lished. articles in support of the principles
that he so eloquently advocated. About
five years ago he was restored to the
church. although he steadily declined to
repudiate the doctrine the advocacy Of
which led to his accommodation.

STAR ENTERTAINED NEwsBoYs.
Crowd Enjoyed Thanksgiving Dinner
and Witnessed Football.

Three score and nearly a dozen more
Star newsboys and carriers were the
guests of the paper yesterday at
Thanksgiving dinner. 1t was the fifth
annual event of the kind and was prob
ably one of the livliest and most COM
pletely successful affairs since it's in
auguration. The boys gathered at The
Star office long before noon and waited
for the arrival of the representatives
of the business and editorial depart
ments who were to superintend the
feast.
Shortly before / o'clock the crowd
formed in line, and numerous. valiant,
and hungry they started up Fort street
for Loves Bakery where they proposed
to take from turkey indemnity for
whatever hunger they mi~ht have eX-
peTienced since the last Star dinner.
Turkey, cranberry sauce, vegetables,
pie, candy and sode water composed
the menu. 1t was probably the speed
les attack on record and within re-
markably short space of time every
vestige of edibles had disappeared. The
crowd overlooked nothing. They seem
ed hollow from the ends of their hair
to the tips of their toes. Seniority or
size seemed to make no difference. The
little fellows ate as much as the big
ones and the force was kept busy re-
newing the plates, for young Hawaiis
appetite was as devastating as a
Galveston storm.
After dinner the crowd was photo
graphed and again forming in line
marched back Nuuanu street to King
to Fort to the Star office where the
boys were given fish horns. Into two
of Pains four horse busses' they We're
bundled and then, to the noise of
never firing lungs and far reaching
toots. they were driven about the city
winding up at the Punahou grounds at
8 o'clock in time for the foot ball game.
The crowd were driven back to the
Star office at the conclusion of the
game from where, after giving three
cheers for the Star, the youngsters dis
persed to their homes. The Bulletin
also treated it's corps of newsboys and
carriers to dinner and a drive.

ANOTHER FIRE BOX PULLING.

Fire box pulling has become a very
great nuisance in Madison At +
o'clock Monday night, an irrespons' =
bic person pulled box "a, corner of
University avenue and Mary street,
and sent the department on a mile
and-a-half wild-goose chase. When
the men arrived with the apparatus,
after the dangerous ride over slippery
streets, the guilty person had, of
course, disappeared. This sort of
thing may seem joke to the young
men but it is not a jokefor the firemen,
who risk life and limb, nor to the city.
which has, beside her firemen's safety,
the cost of expensive horses and APP
paratus risked in these very cheap
Jokes.
