HAWAIIAN FAITH CURySTS.
Not Followers OF Mrs. Eddy, and VIII Take
Metl cine When It's Necessary.

HONOLULU. Aug. 1A.--Older even than
Mother Eddy and her Christian Science
Is the faith cure Of the Hawaiians They
have just finished the celebration of its
semi-centennial, and at this observance
some remarkable stories OF cures by faith,
prayer ard fasting were told From one
extreme the natives have gone to the other.
The old kahunas believed, and the natives
with them. that they could pray a person
to death. The belief of the "Hoomano
Naauao," as it Is called in the vernacular,
Is that with prayer life may be prolonged
and by faith in God all evil may be cured.
There are no frils to the native Christian
Science Church, though they do not call
themselves by that name. They say they
have beliefs somewhat similar to Mother
Eddy, but that they antedate her by many
years. They believe in the Bible every
word OF 1t, and that governs oil their actions.
Those at the head Of the Church believe
sincerely that cures may he effected by
faith and cite some wonderful cures One
of the alleged cases is that of Delegate
Wilcox, who came home from Washington
in dying condition The doctors could
do nothing for him and said he had only a
few weeks to live. Two men always nc
comranied him when he went out. TT en-
the faith curists took him In charge. and
now they say he is getting well and strorg
Wilcox himself denies the story that ne
joined the faith cure Church. File is Il
Catholic now.
These natives differ from the Christ ian
Scientists In at least one particular they
do not object 10 any of the faith calling
in doctor or using medicine In case Of
necessity. BY this means they also manage
to keep out of the clut ches of the law. They
say that II a man hasn't sufficient faith
to depend upon God alone for cure, he
can call In physician. But they say
and the material and that God Furnishes
the spirit, not the body When the spirit
weakens the body weakens. They say
that it is God Furnishing those who are I'M
well, and that doctors cannot effect cure,
il must come from God. To those that
are without sufficient faith they will give
treatment for five days, during which time
doctors and medicines are eschewed. If
the faith cure doesn't have any effect in
that time the medicines may be resumed
or course, there is no telling what may
happen during the five days that medical
treatment has been stopped.
sour religion is for the poor and the
sick-for the poor that have no money
for medicine says the Rev. }, Kekipi,
the leader OF the sect I'VE can cure all
that have faith, Leprosy, tumors, broken
legs. consumption, everything may be
cured without medicine. MANY lepers

threw her arms around the youths neck
and kissed him several times, and as the
balloon rose and the bar with her husband
on It swept out into the air she trembled
visibly. The balloon became hardly more
than speck, and the girl stood motionless,
gazing upward with hands closed tightly.
Suddenly something shot downward, and
then expanded and came more slowly,
and in a moment disappeared behind the
trees of a piece of woods But still the
girl breathed quickly and kept her hands
clenched. 1t was not until crowd of ex-
cited and awe-struck small boys appeared
at the park gate, with the triumphant
aeronaut in the van, returning like con-
quering hero, that the girl smiled and
noticed those about her.
All OF which indicates that while the para
chute leaper may grow accustomed to
and forget the dangers OF his calling, it Is
no fun to be his wife.

As Result Of the Republican Conven-
ton at Cumberland.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
CUMBERLAND. Md, August 12.-It
looks as If the MsComas people will control
the legislative ticket named at yesterdays
republican convention. Messrs. Richmond
and Pearre, the McComas leaders. say
their legislative slate was carried out. -Four
of the nominees were ON the anti-McComas
slate also, and for that reason the latter
say they have won. The McComas people
say Wellington slated their men. not know
ing that he was playing into their hands.
The McComas people say that William J.
Feaga, one of the nominees and former pri-
waite secretary to Senator Wellington. VINO
though heralded as an anti-McComaS man,
has given assurances that he will be with
them.
There seems to be considerable dissatis-
faction among many republicans on ac-
count of the riotous proceedings, for which
each faction Is equally responsible. IL Is
feared by some the effect on the ticket VIII
be bad. Much Is blamed on the primary
system in vogue. 1t IS suggested by many
that the Crawford county system would be
a solution. The democrats are jubilant. as
they think the republican troubles will help
them they did two and four years ago.
The republicans, however, say their ticket
is strong. 1t is geographically well distrib-
uted, with the exception that Frostburg,
the republican stronghold. id not get all 1t
wanted. Frestburg republicans have made
trouble at the polls in the past for this rea-
son.
1t is predicted that the whole ticket will
go through. Two years ago the democrats
had an advantage that is not generally
known. They struck off the names OF 100,
republicans in this county from the poll
books by aid of lists obtained through the
German census. These men have since been

IRRIGATION IN WASHINGTON.
Length of Main bitches Operated Was
Over LOGO Miles. So

Chief Statistician L. G. Powers has trans
mitted to the director of the census a re-
port of irrigation in the state of WASH
ington for 1902 The report was prepared
under his direction by Mr.. Clarence j.
Blanchard. and is based upon information
obtained by correspondence and by the
field work of Mr.. Blanchard and Mr.. Harry
L. Holgate. The report will not appear in
bulletin form until the latter part of the
year, when 1t will be included in the vol
ume of irrigation statistics for the United
States. The report indicates that there has
been material development in irrigation
since the census year 1899.
Irrigation in Washington is confined prac-
tically to the territory east of the Cascade
mountains. which, ranging north and south,
divide the state into two parts dissimilar
in topography, soil and climate. The CO.
iumbia river drains all of the eastern ter
ritory.
There has been considerable increase
since 1899 in the irrigated area of the state
and in the number OF irrigated farms. Be
sides the bitches actually operated in 1902
there are a number of bitches, some Of
them covering an extensive area, which did
not carry water until 1903.
In 1899 the number of irrigators in Wash
ington was 3513, and the number of acres
irrigated 135,47O. The figures for 1902 are
respectively, 1855 and 154.962. The cost
of irrigation systems in operation was in
1899 81, $40 ,319 and in 1902 $3.50, 1853. The
total length of main bitches operated in
1902 was 1,Oa5 miles.

1t is stated that Mr.. Cobb's administra-

He has been regarded as too slow. The

Mr. Cobb was selected as architect under

Mr. Cobb for a long time had an Office in
