the Moiliili Church with the aid of 9TH
er ladies of Kawaihao, had charge of
the decorations for the Easter services.
Following is a part of the sermon
preached by Rev. w. D. Westervelt in
Kawaiahao Church in the evening Eas-
ter service.
"Go your way; make it as sure you
can" The dead body of Christ was in
the hands of his enemies. They had
failed to prove that he had ever spoken
falsely. while He was on trial before
them. Could they compel His lips, mar
BILE like in death, to refrain from still
speaking the truth? Was it possible for
them to keep Him from rising again on
the third day? They asked PLATE to
keep the door of that tomb closed. He
turned the responsibility back upon
them. Make it as sure as you can"
They went out to the grave in the gar
den to do what they could. AS far as
was in their power they would prove
that He was still in the grave on the
third day.
1t is impossible to imprison truth and
make it stay behind the bars when its
appointed time has come. Gods hand
is behind all truth and will push 1t out
TO do its work. It is no wonder that

should have been raked into prominence.
A company OF the National Guard was
on duty at that time for about two days
and the expense was considered small.
Another large bill of expense was incur
red during the plague visitation. At the
time no one thought of questioning the
amount. 1t was case in which extra
culinary chances were being taken by
the volunteers, and the utmost diligence
and promptness was required, both by
the necessities of the moment and by
popular clamor At times, notably i'm
mediately before and after the burning
of Chinatown, extraordinary expendi-
lures were necessary.
AS for the expenditures for dress uni
forms, etc.,i is purely a custom of States
or Territories. In most of the States the
entire equipment is paid for by the State;
in some of them, 1 believe, it is not. but
devolves upon the purses of staff officers.
In Hawaii the custom has always been
for the Government to supply uniforms,
swords and other equipment to field,
line and staff An extraordinary expense
was occasioned at this. particular period
by the change from the Hawaiian to
the American military system, which
called for additional uniforms for the
line, and for new uniforms for the
staff AS for the gold helmets" etc,
referred to, they are duplicates of those
used by the Governors staff and regi-
ment heads in every State and territory
of the Union. Some years ago this para
phernalia was supplied by the central
Government, but, although the uniform
ity is kept up, such is no longer the
case, and each State has now to look
out for the proper equipment of its off,
GERS in times of peace.
There has been no waste Of military
money. None has gone to other than
military uses, save perhaps, the item
for guards on the Capitol grounds. Fol-
lowing the disarmament of the regulars
on September l, 1898, II was thought nee
essary to have a guard on the grounds
al night to protect the Treasury and
fallen to the police, but 1t was found
insufficient and that the appropriation
| bill would not stand it. It was then de-
| cided to supply the guards from the mil
| itary until the Legislature had conVen-
/ ed and made proper provision for the
/ guarding OF the Capitol and court house

/ penses for maintenance, etc, 1t must ne

ment had to be supplied to the men from
the military fund None of the money
came from the Board of Health. Ihi'
ran up the bill to a considerable sum
but It was at least kept from the &c
count of the Board of Health. which wa
probably none too small anyway. n

Honolulu, II. T, April I, 1901
Hon. Sanford B. Dole, Governor Terri
tory o. Hawaii.
Sir: ! herewith submit the following
special report of the Health Department
OF this Territory. From this statement
of facts and the careful scientific inves-
tigation as carried out by this Depart
ment there can be no other conclusion
than that the case referred to is one of
bupOnic plague.
Since the visitation of the epidemic Of
last year this Department has exercised
every precaution practicable and direct
ed its energy towards the possible pre-
venuon of a recurrence of the disease
An efficient corps of inspectors have been
at work in all parts of the City and
most excellent results have been at
tanned in the abatement OF nuisances,
especially in such parts as by reason of
population and environment would nat
urally cause the Department to be ap-
prehensive of danger.
No body has been permitted to be in
tered where a reputable physician has
not been in attendance without a post
mortem examinati ton in the City morgue
under the direction and by the physi-
clan OF the Department; thus it may be
seen that diligent search and most care
ful management of the Department to
safeguard the public health has been it's
only aim.
1t is my belief that no serious trouble
viii be experienced with the disease here
in the future, as IL is a well-known fact
that sporadic cases are usually found
following every epidemic in any country
and that We have not met with them
earlier is greater surprise than is the
occurrence of this case at this time.
These views are shared by DR.. Car
michael Chief Quarantine Officer of the
Federal Government with whom 1 have
been in close touch in this case and
whose policy In behalf of the Federal
authorities Is in harmony with that OF
this Department.
The case referred to we class as spo-

all articles OF clothing, furniture, place

When Christianity came and melted
away their old life, frozen by sin and
self-love, and gave TO them knowledge
of the Resurrection of the Redeemer,
they felt the 10y unspeakable and full
of glory" To the spirit world 1t was
springtime coming in marvellous power.
They felt the force of their Easter
month as they found it so closely con-
nected with the Crucifixion and Resur-
rection. Lovers of nature as well as
lovers of Christ, they made Easter-time
the frame in which each year they could
place the thought of the living Christ
Thus Easter became natures word for
the blessed truth that no earthly power
could hold fast" the Christ and His in
vincible love for men.

For several weeks the family Of
Judge Washburn, on Capitol Hill,
have been in a state of uneasiness
and excitement over the peculiar
sounds heard about the premises at
different times. At first it was
thought to be q burglar prowling
about on one porch and then on an.
other. Sometimes the family would
be startled by the sounds Of q
stealthy step at the window Of the
bedroom and instantly the sound
would shift to the corner Of the
room, where the chimney Is locat.
ed. Searches were made time and
again 10 locate the would he vii.
lain, which always came at night,
hut all to no purpose. until one
night recently Mrs. Campbell. the
daughter Of Judge Washburn, was
awakened by the sound as Of some
one stepping on the roof. and. after
watching carefully. she had the
satisfaction Of seeing his royal high.
ness descend with much Ease and
go directly to the coop in the yard.
where small chickens are kept, and
finding the coop had been securely
fastened. he visited the next door
neiahbors, where he killed three OF
the chickens. which had reached
frying size, showing that he was a
Judge Of the good things to eat.
The burglar proved to Ike a large
fat coop and on Sunday afternoon
the neighbors collected at the home
Of Judge Washburn to locate the
hiding place Of the coon. !, having
succeeded in killing eleven fine
chickens, and after sucking the
blood from their threats and head.
would leave them to seek other vic.
tins. The old fellow was found
to he in the chimney, and by put
ting a lantern on the end of a rope
and dropping 1t into the chimney
he was heard to growl severely
but he would not bulge, not ever
when a coal Of fire was sent down,
So the coon was allowed to rest. bu,
a large steel trap was set in the
yard. which succeeded in capturing
him the first night. and so putting
an end to the destruction Of fowls

roof.
