GEAR GIVES
HIS REASONS
For Not Appointing a
Successor to W. h.
Wright.

In denying the petition for the re-
movaI of w. H. Wright as one of the
executors of the estate of the late
John Wright, Judge Gear slater that
at a former hearing he considered that
it was his duty to appoint person
in place of w. H. Wright, who, the
court found had abdicated his office
and was a fugitive from justice, but
that after consideration the court found
himself without Jurisdiction to appoint
an administrator with the will annex
ed He found the cases holding that
such an administrator could MT be
appointed where there was an executor
acting.
There are here two executors act
ing, who are given discusionetaoinshr
ing, who are given discretionary pow
ers," the court said in an oral decision,
land either one of them has a right
to take any action that all of them
would have a right to take
While concluding that he had no
right to appoint Fred. Wundenberg in
place of the missing executor, the
court did not think a sufficient show
ing was made against his appointment
and would appoint him if it had the
power. Finally he says:
Where executors are given discre-
ton. and are given property which is
in the nature of trust, and given dis
erection such as given here, an admin
istrator with the will annexed, if he
take the office, could not act with that
discretion. Such discretion would not
pass to an administrator with the will
annexed, but 1 am convinced in any
case that an administrator with the
will annexed could not be appointed;
1 would not have jurisdiction, and the
appointment would be void. 1t is so
stated in Williams on Executors.
Therefore, the petition will have to be
denied on those grounds

and Helen Keller as those who had
shown what one person can do with
Christ's help. In conclusion Mrs.
Hdye said, 1T is as you spend your
self that you will be enriched. 1t is
as you pour out your life that the en-
plying will fill it higher. Christ &C
cents and blesses all the offerings of
loyal hearts and silent love the world
over, and we can do for Him in pro-
portion as He lives in us.
My dear friends as 1 speak to you
for the last time as President of this
Board 1 would impress upon you your
responsibility for the best service.
Whatever your pound of spikenard
may be. what greater joy that than to
devote it to Christ's service. To do
all that we can, means the consecra-
ton of every power, every affection,
every hour, if service is required give
that, if endurance accept that, only re-
Numbering that Christ's service de-
mands the best,-demands all, to the
last drop of oil or the breaking of the
alabaster box, your most costly sacri-
fee"
Following Mrs. Hyde's address Mrs
Siemson sang and then the Rev. J. C.
Meserve of San Francisco was called
upon for a few remarks. He empha-
sized the need of the work that the
women were doing and complimentcd
the woman's Board on the program of
the day. Mrs. Meserve was also called
upon and said she was a little sur
prised to see the same sort of mis-
sionary gatherings here as she had
seen in Boston and London. ITO para
phrase an old saying" she said, lit is
one touch of missionary that makes
the whole world kim
Mrs. DR.. Scudder talked of mis-
sionary work in Japan. and there were
remarks also by Mr.. Hill of Hilo, Rev.
o. H. GuIick and others.

among the Hawaiians was also read

THE WORD OF HONOUR.

The men who do as they say;
the things that prove to be what
at they were said to be,-how
cheering it is to come upon them.
We all hate to be deceived; es-
pecially when the deception is in
territorial. But all men are not
liars, even if David did say so in
his haste. If they were society
would be impossible. Everybody
knows that business is based
on credit, on faith. Millions are
bought and sold daily on nothing
more solid than the pledged pro-
misses of men,-not written, mere
" verbal. The Stock Exchanges
are often called nests of gamblers,
yet nowhere is a promise held
in greater honour. Therefore
when we say that the tried and
effective modern remedy called
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
never deceives any who resort to
it in hope of benefit and cure, we
may expect to be believed. For
this assurance is given on what it
has done in the past in countless
cases,-on its record. 1t is only
recommended to accomplish what
it was made to accomplish. Its
action in Chlorosis, Anemia, La
Grippe, General Debility, Throat
and Lung Troubles, Blood I'm
purities, etc. is convincing. 1t is
palatable as honey and contains
the nutritive and curative pro-
perties of Pure Cod Liver Oil,
extracted by US from fresh cod
livers, combined with the Com
pound Syrup of Hypophosphites
and the Extracts of Malt and
Wild Cherry. DR.. Austin D. Ir-
vine, of Canada, says: 81 have
used it in cases where cod liver
oil was indicated but could not
be taken by the patient, and the
results following were very graft
flying" 1t is effective from the
first dose and agrees with the
most sensitive and nervous stom-
achs. 1t cannot deceive or disap-
point you, and comes to the res
cue of those who have received
no benefit from any other treat
ment. 1t stands for the medical
triumphs of the age. At chemists.
