If a strike is decided upon, it is likely to in

IS UNDER ROOF
Salvation Army Has a
Hall Now.
Preparing for the Week Of Self
Denial Which Begins Next
Sunday.

The Salvation Army and its friends
were rejoicing last night. After spend
ing some three weeks or more, home
less, in the open air, with no roof to
cover their heads and no hall to which
they could bid their hearers come, they
took possession of Tim Murray's quar-
ters on King street last evening
Major Wood, who had charge of the
meeting, expressed the feeling of the
gathering when he said in his opening
remarks, how glad he was to- see the
Honolulu corps in hall again. He con-
graduated the members on the splendid
way they had kept together during that
time, on the large attendances in the
open air services and commented on the
fact that although without hall some
twenty-five conversions had been re-
corded. the majority of whom had knelt
down in the street and there found
Christ as their Saviour"
He noted the fact that during this
time the brass band had been reorgan-
lied and IA string band formed, both of
which organizations would undoubted-
ly be big help in furthering the work.
He predicted a bright future of useful
ness for the Salvation Army in this
city.
lt was announced that a series of a
weeks special meetings would be held
commencing on Sunday next These
meetings will not only form a suitable
opening to- the new hall but will also be
part of the army's annual self-denial
effort which takes place this year from
April Sth to 18th.
The Salvation Army stands foremost
as a powerful spiritual and social factor
amongst the Christian nations of the
earth. With characteristic energy and
thOroughness they are extending year
by year their work into territories as
yet untouched. They settle embarras-
sing financial questions by voluntarily
depriving themselves not only of com
forts, but even of necessaries, in what
is known as the week of self-denial.
The Army is the recognized friend
and comforter of the poorest and low
liest, and their efforts In behalf of the
millions of submerged" are deserving
of the highest praise and the liberal
support on the part OF those who are
free from worry about daily bread.
May every one who belongs to this
fortunate class help To swell the Saliva
ton Army Relief Fund during their
annual week of prayer and self-denial.
