Hon. c. 2. Lincoln in a recent ad-
dress expressed himself as follows on
the woman question as a result Of
modern civilization:
Woman suffrage is the inevitable
result Of the logic of the situation Of
modern society. Il must come. We
cannot stop it. II universal suffrage
is a mistake that mistake was made
ages ago; because II women are not
to have all the rights which the logic
Of the situation gives to them. then
we ought to have kept women in sub

which the Roman woman was kept in
the early days Of Rome when she
surrendered her person and her prop

OPENED AN C-LD CRAVE.

Bald Knob, June 25.-On what is known as the old Woodland farm, three miles north of Bald Knob, some unknown parties last week ore away the stone curbing of a grave in which young girl was buried during the war, dug down about three feet, and it is supposed took out pot of treas ure, as the impression of vessel was left in the bottom of the opening made. The parties must have been frightened away as they left without filling up the grave. A great deal of excitement was caused in that neigh borhood by the ghoulish work.

TRAGEDY AT SEARCY.

Searcy, June 25.--Fletcher Judge instantly killed Sid Sowell today shooting him twice with a shotgun, one shot tearing his heart out and the other one side of his face. Judge came to town and gave himself up.
 A family feud of long standing was the cause. Judge stated that Sowell had been living with his stepmother for six years as man of the house, and had often insulted him and his brothers and sister. Today as Judge was going home he passed Sowell and some words were exchanged. Judge went home and procured his gun and returned, emptying both barrels into Sowell's body.

THE PROBLEM OF PAIN.

There is no person who has grown
to mature years and experience who
has not suffered aches and pains,
which raised the question: why is
pain permitted?" Generation after
generation has asked that same ques-
ton, sometimes in doubt often in re-
bellion. But all specula ton on the
problem is valueless. The fact that
faces US is that pain is here, ever
present, ever powerful The great
question is not why pain IS permitted.
but how can pain be stopped. And it
is at this point the savage steps in

vice by Rev. G. L.
Pearson.

The new Japanese Methodist Episcopal
4, church at A.ea was dedicated Sunday
afternoon by Rev. George L. Pearson of
the Methodist church. He was assisted
by the pastor, Rev. T. Takahashi, and
Rev. Komuro.
Several people from the city went down
to Aiea and assisted, among them be-
Ing Mr. r. H. Trent and Miss Bots.
There was a good sized attendance and
the services were interesting. The SUM-
day School, composed Of about thirty
children, sang a number of hymns and
showed their proficiency in church mat
tiers in many ways. The credit for their
splendid training is due to Mrs. Taxa
hashi, wife of the pastor. who is a valu-
able assistant to him in his reig Gus
work
The new church is a small affair, cost
ing about $500, all of which is paid and
the church starts upon its career free
from debt. The building IS 2ix40 feet.

DANES WILL NOE CONE

NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-Instead of sail
ing for the United States the day after
Christmas, planned, the Danish man
of-war Valkyr,en remains at anchor in
the harbor of st. Thomas, D. W. l.. I'M
der orders from the government at CO.
penhagen.
The visit of the Valkyrien was planned
several months ago, and the announce
ment that it has been postponed has been
conveyed in cablegrams just received
The cablegrams give no information be
yond saying that the postponement is to
an indefinite time. The Valkyrien was to
have touched at Norfolk ard visited the
ports OF New York and Perth Amboy. n.
j. Preparations are under way ct
Perth Amboy and in New York to enter
tain the officers and crew, and the people
OF Danish birth and parentage at these
places are disappointed by the cancella-
ton OF the orders under which the cru s.
er was proceeding. The Vaikyrien has
been at St. Thomas nearly n month and
II is about three months since she left
Copenhagen. II is believed here that tho
decision not TO allow the ship to come to
anchor at present Is wholly due to the
feeling engendered In the Danish islands
by the negotiations for their sale to the
United States government.

BRITISH TRADE OUTLOOK.
How the Old Country Begins the
New Year.

NEW YORK, Dec. 2S-Great Britain's
iron trade seems to be on the down
grade, according to the Tribunes London
representative. The production of pig
iron in 1901 is estimated a about $500 900
tons, as compared with 100000 tons in
1900 and 3,251 900 tons in 1899; and although
the production of steel should come near
ly up to the standard of 1900. when It
totailed $4,000 tons of ingots of all
kinds, the total quantity of manufacture
ed iron will show a big falling off. The
shipments of pigiron will be raised by
the end of the year to 100000 tons, or
within &C, 900 tons of the quantity shipped
In 1900.
NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-There has been
an Improvement IN the coasting trade.
but the foreign shipments will show
large reduction and the prospects for 1902
are not of a rosy character, says a dis
patch TO the Tribune from London.
NEW YORK, Dec. 2S.-The British con-
sui at Marseilies. in a long report on the
competition of American coal with British
coal IN Mediterranean ports, arrived at
the conclusion that American competi-
ton will only become dangerous to the
British trade if high prices continue to
rule in England, and ii American ship
ping interests succeed in securing the
passage of a bounty bill, cables the Lon>
don correspondent of the Tribune.
