A NATIVE OE HOLMES COUNTY
Win Roosevelt Close the Lexington
Postoffice?

Albany, N. Y, Jan. l6.-A man
who calls himself Samuel Sanders and
is reputed to reside in Lexington,
Miss, has been flooding the local
postotfice with money orders for 5
cents and upward made payable to
President Roosevelt, Senator Platt,
Senator Depew, Senator Murphy,
Ex-Gov. Hill, Birds s. Coler, Richard
Croker, the late President Mckinley
and the late Speaker Thomas B Reed.
The amount of each order was 5
cents, with the exception of one sent
to David B. Hill for one dollar, inten-
ded as d retainer in a legal case and
received by Mr.. Hill yesterday. Mr..
Hill and the other recipients ignored
the order.
The postoflice officials have been an
noyed by this man for the past two
or three years, and several months
ago Postmaster Argersinger notified
the postmaster at Lexington, Miss,
to stop issuing money orders for such
small amounts to Sanders. This had
the desired effect until few days
ago, when a money order sent by
Sanders and issued to Bird S. Coler
was received in this city from Pick
ems, Miss.
1t is believed that Sanders must
have had some trouble with the auth
oritiesat the above-named postoffice in
Mississippi, about forty miles distant
from the other places mentioned, to
send the latest orders. -Scimitar.

SAVINGS BANKS IN SCHOOLS.
Mrs. H. W. Rietow. superintendent
of the department of school savings
banks. made the following report of
the work in the city:
Your superintendent has not been
able to do justice to this department
as press OF other business has occu-
pied her time, but Mrs. Brown. her
assistant. has done good work: visited
many schools and felt much encouraged
by the interest taken, but owing to i'll
health was obliged to retire.
Since the opening OF the fall schools
have had the pleasure of visiting the
Royal School. and found the Rev. Mr..
Macintosh, the principal, much inter-
ested in the Banking System. 1t has
been carried on in this school for a
number of years and though not using
our system the results have been the
same, and he finds that it requires but
very little of his school time. AT pres
ent he has about fifty (50) boys who are
depositing in the bank. Some of his
old pupils now have homes of their
own, and attribute their success to the
early teachings received at the Royal
School. But a few weeks ago, one of
his old pupils stopped him on the
street to say that he had made the
last payment on his home We have
now placed few supplies in this school
and hereafter the boys will use our
Scholars Copyright Cards.
A visit to the Kaahumanu School.
Miss Felker principal, found her doing
good work among her pupils. In their
paper, Male Lehua," of June we find
the names of twenty (20) of her pupils
who have commenced to deposit money
in the Savings Bank, while the same
paper of this month gives list of fifty
(5O), an increase of thirty 600 over last
years work. One of the boys is now
paying his way through Punahou Pre-
paratory with the money saved last
year, and another expects to enter the
same school and pay his expenses with
money he has saved.
AS good work commenced is sure
to grow, we are hoping for grand re-
suits this coming year.
Respectfully submitted,

THE GENEVA MEETING.

Mrs Elizabeth Waterhouse who at
tended the international meeting of
the W. c. 7. U. in Geneva, Switzer-
land, gave an interesting and highly

paper read by her took the place of the
annual report of the president. Mrs
Waterhouse told in her paper of the
trip from England to Switzerland in
company with hundreds of delegates
Delegates were in attendance from al
most every civilized nation. One of
the interesting discussions was over
the change of the name of the Round

White Ribbon Missionaries" There
was also change made in the bylaws
Mrs. Waterhouse stated that she was
much interested in the campaign in
Switzerland against sin and misery,
giving in detail some of the organized
efforts of the women. An address from
Lady Henry Somerset, president of the
society, was read by the vice president.
Mrs. Waterhouse stated that an ap-
peal had been made by the convention
for contribution of fifty cents from
each member, outside of the usual
contributions. the money to be used
in special mission work. Forty-four
delegates had complied with the ap-
peal and promised to collect the fund,
and she was one of them. The ladies
of the Hawaiian society are also ask
ed to contribute at the next meeting.
CHANGE IN NAME.
Upon motion of Mrs. Coan it was de-
cided to change the name of the So
ciety to the ''Woman's Christian Tenn
peranee Union of Hawaii
An appeal was made also for sub
scriptions to the Union Signal" which
has now been taken over by the ma
tional organization.

TEMPERANCE LITERATURE.

Miss Johnson presented Mrs. w. D.
WesterVelts report on temperance lit
erature, the latter being too i'll to at
tend. The committee had distributed
several thousand pamphlets on tenn
perance during the year. "a History
of the Temperance Movement in
the Hawaiian Islands, by Mrs.
Whitney had also been distributed,
being printed in the Advertiser
and later translated for the Ku-
okoa by the Anti Saloon League.
The report was to the effect that the
history would be widely circulated, es-
pecially among the natives, as it was
stated the Kuokoa is widely read by
the best class of Hawaiians. Mrs.
Westervelt also favored enlisting the
aid of the press to an even greater ex-
tent than in the past.
Mrs. Gulick reported that the COM
ittee on "Unfermented Wine in
Churches" found nothing to do, but she
was ready to go for any church that
did use fermented wine in communion
service.
