Talks on, Samoans.

| Miss Valesca Schultze, a recently re-
turned missionary from Samoa, lee
tured last evening in the German Luz
theran church on Samoa and Samoan
Missions" The audience was not as
large as it should have been, but quite
sum was realized for the fund which
| will be used to establish a German
Home on Molokai.
| Miss Schultze Is an entertaining
| talker and she also had a most inter-
esting subject. The history of Samoa
| from the first arrival of the English
missionary in 1880 was detailed by the
speaker, who also threw much light on
the habits and characteristics of the
native Samoan. Miss Schultze said
that the missionaries met with early
success and that marvellous progress
was made in converting the Samoans
and that in a comparatively short time
the natives were Christanized.
The evangelistic work assumed such
large proportions that a German mis-
sion was established to aid in the work.
This has been a great success, not only
in Samoa but elsewhere in the South
Seas as well. Miss Schultze said that
in the many villages of Samoa, each
had church and a native pastor. The
pastor was also the school teacher.
She told also of the establishment of
a Boys High School where carpentry,
blacksmithing and agricultural pur-
suits were taught. 1.-THE Samoans are
lazy" said the speaker, but the mis-
cin ~
make them Industrious"
Miss Schultze said that the education
of women in Samoa was one of the
greatest problems the missionaries had
to contend with. She was sent out
by the German society in 1890 to teach
higher education to them. The chiefs
had discouraged the project as well
as the missionaries already resident
there.
The chiefs shook their heads and
asked why educate the women, they
can't become pastors?" The women
were free and independent, like the
birds of the air, said Miss Schultze.
but as soon as they are married they
lose all their liberty. They go about
unkempt and untidy and give up all
the finery they enjoyed before their
I asked one of them, Why
don't you dress neatly now as before?
1t is all right for you, but see when a
girl gets married and she still wears
all her finery she is pointed out as n
woman for whom one husband is not
enough and who wants to attract 9TH
ers, too #"
Miss Schultze said the school estab-
lished had been a splendid success.
At first the girls were shy but now
they see that their brothers are getting
superior ways, and they want to try
the same thing. Miss Schultze said
she was surprised somewhat at the civ
iliZation shown in Hawaii.

MEHEULA'S
TRIAL SET

The japanese peonage case went to
the jury, with Judge Dole's charge,
about six o'clock yesterday evening. ].
W. Cathcart had made closing adj
dress of considerable length for the
defendant, District Attorney r. w.
Breckons speaking more briefly for the
prosecution. At o:3o the jury had not
returned from dinner at one OF the
hotels.
AT II:a5 p. m. the jury brought in a
verdict on both counts, Guilty as
charged in the indictment. y
Judge Dole yesterday morning SEN
fenced Kingo Ueda, under his plea of
guilty to indictment for perjury, to
Imprisonment at hard labor for twelve
months and payment of one dollar fine.
The offense consisted in giving wrong
name to the immigration officials and
swearing that he was the husband of
woman arrived from Japan.
Solomon Meheula, clerk of the House
of Representatives, pleaded not guilty to
indictment for destroying public docu-
ments, he being a public officer. His
trial was set for April IS, being at
next term of the Federal court. Mr..
Ashford, counsel for Meheula, offered
to waive reading of indictment, but Mr..
Breckons successfully objected that, the
offense being a felony, the Formally
could not be waived

The Kansas 100000.

They talk about the Kansas hoo
doo-that bird of i'll omen that
rests with one claw in the quiver-
ing body of that dlsgraced senator,
Ralph Burton, and the other in the
grave of James II. Lane, the first
senator from Kansas.
1t is not pleasant story, that
tale from Kansas, bat it contains a
moral, and one that tells that fame
without honesty is nothing, and
that position backed by mediocrity
is oblivion.
When a man wants to be Gro ked,
why hasn't he brains enough to
look back over the trail and see
what becomes of other men who
were tempted and fell?
James II. Lane and Samuel G.
Pomeroy were elected to the United
States SGiiate at the first session OF
the Kansas legislature. Lane let
hatred govern him. He intrigued
for the downfall of Gov. Charles
Robinson, and even his best friends
turned against him. SO Lane put &
Revolver to his mouth and blew out
his life.
What 81 Senator Pomcry?
Imagine the scene at joint ses
sion of the Kansas Legislature, wher
Alexander NJ. Yorke walked into
the hall threw down on the speak
er's desk $1,000 in bills and said

'ey for my vote in this body to-day

no man so mean and low as to cast
Il single vote.
Senator Edmund G. Ross vote
saved President Johnson from inn
parchment. Kansas said his mo-
tive was graft and calls HIM a skunk.
He died, politically.
And there came Alexander Cad
we'll, who resigned under charges
Of bribery and corruption; and
Robert Crozier, who was a cipher;
and James NJ. Harvey, who left not
one act to show that he was Il SER
want of the people.
There was Preston B. Plumb, of
whom Mary Ellen Lease said: Il
will hound him to the gates Of hell" )"
and Bishop K. Perkins, who admit
ted that his only political asset was
good clothes.
Pfeffer, he of the whiskers, retir-
cd to obscurity, shorn ofpower and
influence; and Senators Baker and
Harris won no fame in the halls al
Washington.
Then came Burton, and the meas
ure of Kansas humiliation was
complete.
| There never was nor will there
ever be any element in the makeup
of mankind that can take the place
Of brains and integrity.

the history Of Kansas in the United
