WOMENS'
GUILDS
WORK
Rev. Sidney Heoksr Speaks Be-
fore St. Andrews
Brotherhood.

The annual meeting of the Brotherhood
of st. Andrew was held last evening in
the Anglican Cathedral schoolroom, in
drew and the Second Congregation. The
joint meeting was for the purpose of
listening to an address on guild work by
Rev. Sidney Hooker. of Dillon, Montana,
who is making short visit in Honolulu.
He was introduced by Rev. Alex. Mack
intosh, who spoke of the origin and
work of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew.
themselves known In church work. and
then gave an outline of it's history. He
sad the members of the Brotherhood
did much for the church by visiting ho-
tells, lodging houses, ships and other
places, where they urged men to attend
church services and otherwise bring them
within the influence of the church. One
of the pleasant features of the organiza-
ton had been an address by one of the
five founders of the Brotherhood of st.
Andrew in the United States. the result
of which was to renew activity in the To-
cal Brotherhood.
to bring message from the Episcopal
Church In the United States to the
church in Hawaii, and especially from
his own church In Montana. Speaking of
guilds and why they should exist, he
said II was because when the spirit of
Christ comes into the hearts of people
they want to show their faith and love
in practical way. Religion was not
simply a thing of sentiment or words,
but a thing for action. The rector of
parish needs others to assist him in his
work and Christians feel that they can
do something for him. They want to
show that Christianity means something
to them practically. In order to accom-
plish anything there must be organiza-
ton, as in business or politics. and there
fore guilds have been organized. The
Brotherhood of St. Andrew was a splen>
did organization and helped a great deal
to interest men in the church. He prais
ed the Daughters of the King, the par
ish guilds, and laid especial stress on the
value of the Woman's Auxiliary which
did much for missions, branch of which
he said would be established here under
the regime of the new American bishop.
The guilds were for making people &C
quainted with each other, and to raise
funds for church work by the giving OF
socials and bazaars. He hoped to learn
of the Woman's Auxiliary here creating
an interest in the Sunday Schools to
raise a mission fund during Lent to be
presented to the next convention of the
House of Bishops, as Alaska, Liberia,
China, Japan, and other missionary dis
tricts, had done recently. His own State
had given the largest amount per capita,
and the town of Dillon the largest
amount per capita in the State.
At the conclusion of his address the
Brotherhood of st. Andrew passed vote
of thanks to Mr.. Hooker. Rev Mr..
Macintosh made some brief remarks
about church work in general, and made
plea for more active interest in eccle-
siastical affairs.

WHAT WE OUGHT NOT TO KNOW

No one ought to know they have a
have a liver. No one ought to know
that they have any internal machin-
cry. They wont know 1t If the ma
chinery is working properly. The first
time that the liver or heart, stomach
or kidneys force themselves on the at
tention, it is sign that there is some
thing wrong with the machinery. What
gish. Perhaps the blood is impure. It
may be the stomach needs toning up
or the bowels need regulating. What
ever the trouble is, there is sure
remedy in Sagwa. Sagwa will search
the trouble out and straighten 1t out.
That's what Sagwa is made for. The
Indian found that however many Varie-
ties of diseases there were, there were
few causes of disease, and that a few
simple remedies, properly compounded,
were provided by Nature, to eradicate
these very causes. One disease may
have twenty symptoms. 1t is useless
to treat the symptoms. The Indian
remedy goes to the root, and eradicateS
the cause. That is the reason for Its
success, where other remedies fail. 1t
is purely vegetable, and while power
full in its result it is yet gentle in its
action. 1t is Natures remedy, and it
works quietly and easily as Nature
works. Have you tried Sagwa? Begin
on it at once. You will begin to be
cured with the first does, and gradual y
recover that strength and energy that
you have lost in the past years. No
other remedy operates so surely or SO
speedily as Sagwa-

NEW GLYcERINE PRoJEcTILE.
A Cniifornian's Invention that Is he
Ing Considered By the Ord
nance Department

Oakland, Cal, Jan. 6.-B. Pettingill,
of this city, has invented a glycerine
projectile, which, if the claims of the
inventor hold good, will prove of
great Importance. The mechanism
of the invention is a secret. and Pet
tingill is now negotiating with the
United States government for The
sale of the device. The matter will
be considered by the ordnance de-
partment The invention, Pettingill
says, is a shell that will carry, with
out the least concussion. from 80 to
200 pounds of glycerine oil as far as
the ordinary shell can be carried by
ordinary modern ordnance. The con
oussion necessary to project this
shell, he says. is. by his device, re-
fected back to the sides of the shell
so that the glycerine oil is not dis
turbed in the least.

A BADLY DAMAGED VESSEL.
The French Bark Max, Which Sank
the Steamer Walla Walla,
Towed TO Port.
HER NOSE is PRETTY BADLY SMASHED.
Capt. Benoist Denies the statement
of the Captain of the NaliR wal
la That the Max's Lights WEI"
Not burning, aud Blames the
Steamers Errntic Actions.

San Francisco, Jan. 6.-The French
bark Max. Capt Benoist, which was
in collision with aud sank the steam
er Walla Nalla, causing the loss of
about 40 lives, and which was towed
10 this port Sunday night. WAS badly
damaged in the accident. Her Jib-
boom, made of hollow steel, was
broken and twisted, and the tip OF IL
trailed in the water on the port side
of the vessel and at about right an
giles with the line of the hull. Her
stem was twisted and great gaping
holes had been torn in her bow.
There was one almost Rt the water
line, and another a few feet above.
Only her water tight compartments
kept her from sinking.
The French vessel left glasgow ~
days ago, bound for this port. She
was in ballast and consigned To Fred
erick Henry. Her captain had little
to say regarding the disaster except
that his vessel was closely following
the rules OF the road when the
steamer came under the bows of his
bark. He declared that the lights OF
the Max were properly burning and
displayed and that the men of his
crew saw the steamer for Il long time
before the collision. lie said.
I'VE could think of no reason why
the meu on the steamer did not see
us, and as the vessels approached We
became anxious Then il was too
late. The steamer had tried to cross
our bows, but had failed. just be-
fore the crash came the steamer
swung slightly to port as though an
effort was being made TO pass to our
stern. but the change in her course
had been made too late. The bark
struck the steamer almost amidships
on the port side. For moment they
hung together and then drifted apart.
Our vessel was SO badly damaged
that we thought she would sink, ana
under the circumstances were had all
we could do to take care of our
selves. BY daylight we had beaten
well out toward the sea and were
safe from the breakers, but our ves-
sci was TO a great extent unmanage-
able.
"On Saturday morning we accept
ed a tow from the steam schooner
Acme, which later was aided by the
cutter McCulloeh."
The captain added that he thought
the lookout on the Walla Walla was
intoxicated, but this charge is em-
phatically denied by Capt. Hall, OF
that vessel, who says there were
three men on watch at the time.
The second officer, LeCheyalier, of the
Max, told substantially the same
story as the captain.

AERIAL NAVIGATION.
FER substantial Inducements
For Its Development.

St Louis. Jan. 6.-The Louisiana
Purchase Exposition CO. viii offer a
prize of not less than 100000. and
possibly amounting To $500. .ooo. for a
successful airship TO be exhibited at
the exposition in 1903. This announce
ment vas made after members of the
committee had determined upon the
feasibility and attractiveness of the
idea. \ tournament of airships Is the
eorollarY of the offer of the prize.
Tests of the various airships COM
peting for the prize will be made on
the site of the exposition, and il is
expected that all the scientists of the
world that have undertaken To solve
the problem of aerial navigation will
be present with their latest devices.
While no special effort will be made
to encourage any particular inventor,
it is thought by the executive com
mittee that Santos-Dumont. who has
attained the greatest amount of sue
cess up to the present, will be n
prominent figure in the contest. and
that, with the inducement offered. he
will bring great energy to bear dur
ing the intermediate time SO that his
Eiffel tower fight may be repeated
here with more certainty, and the
journey greatly heightened.
From the first drafting of the class
ification of the exposition exhibits
those things which have to do with
aerial navigation have been given a
prominent place. The decision of the
committee will result in an aero
nautie congress, which will be at
tended by men who have been at
.raeting public attention for years
past, each bringing with him his
strongest claim of solving the next
scientific feat the world is looking
forward to. 1t was thought adyisa-
BILE to offer a large prize, in order to
make the competition as inclusive as
possible. While the honor of taking
the first place in sucha contest would
be regarded as sufficient inducement
by some others who are less able
financially to enter the race may find
financial backing with so generous a
prize in sight. In this way it is be-
lieyed that every man with an inven-
tion the plausibility of which he can
demonstrate will be among the con-
testants.
