Especial Correspondence

WASHINGTON, D. c., April a.
The amazing, rapid, and high promi.
| nence, women are now taking in pub
lie affairs, is illustrated in the recent
meeting OF the Daughters OF the Rev
olution in this city. Here seven hun
dred refined women, dressed in the
fashions, many of them large owners
of wealth, many of them college grad
yates, assembled in a Memorial Hall
of their own which is nearly compier-
ed, at cost of $150,000. It is state
lv edifice, well designed, and with a
capacity of holding 2300 persons. Now
contrast this imposing building and its
assembly of women with the insig-
nificant quarters for womenss meetings
thirty years ago and the character OF
the assemblies. Men then, rather apol-
ogized for permitting their wives to
frequent such places, and the social
leaders blacklisted women who were
forward in proclaiming their rights.
In those davs women were absurdly
ignorant of public affairs, because they
took no interest in them, and while
they were patriotic, they hardly
comprehended the nature of the
institutions under which they
lived. With the larger culture of mod
ern davs their condition has entirely
changed owing largely to the fact that
the pressure of material interests on
men has given the opportunity to
women to develop a higher culture.
Here in this city the hotels We're
filed with women who needed little
in business affairs, and
their combined wealth is in the mil
ions. Here is an illustration of the
splendid evolution of democracy in the
distribution OF wealth among the wives
md daughters of the citizens without
discrimination in favor of the sons.
The parliamentary business Of this
convention of 700 women was well
managed Occasionally it became for
he moment hvsterical, but at no time
we're there such violations of rules as
axe place every wear in Congress. In
he voting for president there was Wig

has been called, seem to be even more

men in the rank and file to make up

more coy. 1t is all due, there is little
doubt to the fact that most men who
have studied the subject and who have
no selfish interest to serve have about

So far. the attorneys employed to at

orous lobbying, and after the election
, the victors fell to kissing each other
and the new president quite after the
manner of Frenchmen in the French
Chambers. On the whole, it appears
that the members were rather more
impressienable than the members of
male convention. But it is singular
how rapidly the women of these later
days have acquired good business hab-
it's in conducting public meetings.
At the close of an exciting election,
the friends of the defeated candidate
did not sulk or cry out How meani'
but they took their medicine, made the
choice unanimous and the leaders, like
good politicians, were determined at
all hazards to preserve harmony. One
of the delegates, charming woman
and the mother of many children, said
that for while ''there was a power
full undercurrent of silent profanity
but the bad feeling went off into thin
air. Altogether the convention had
the advantage of the Irishmen's con-
vention where the delegates "fought
each other for reconciliation, and
hated each other for the love of God.''
AS an incident of the proceedings,
the delegates voted to adjourn over
Good Friday. The large majority of
the delegates were not observers of the
day, but the liberation and sympathy
which prevails in these days governed
the convention.
The spirit of liberation was so
strong that even Jefferson g Bible'
was sold at the door of Memorial
building without protest. This book
which has been bitterly denounced in
the past as ''garbled Bible" by the
stricter sort, was allowed to be sold by
these seven hundred women, who are
the mothers of many hundred children.
This was evidence, one delegate said,
Of the great advance of women in the
higher criticism.
The women here have also under
taken another great task, and they
earnestly invite the assistance of the
women of Hawaii. General Washing
-on desired that there should be "A
prominent place of learning in this
,apital of the nation, and he made
,ome provision for 1t in his will. The
sation has paid no attention to his
wishes, while the religious denomina-
ions have seen the advantages Of
building prominent institutions here.

ar sight, have secured large tract

HILO, May 10.-The seismic dis
turbances that commenced Wednesday
afternoon of last week and lasted
through the night and early morn, are
the hardest shakes given Hilo since
the early eighties. While no crack
opened through the town as in 1886,
yet the vibrations seemed more vio-
lent. The first shock at 3:1S and the
second at 4;10 In, the afternoon caused
considerable damage to furniture,

were shakes and jolts during the night

stomachs. The Hilo Drug Store, which

intervals seemed to portend something
ominous, and it was this feeling that
aroused the inhabitants more than the
damage to personal belongings. The
shocks were felt at the Volcano House,
causing the breaking up of the sulphur
banks. No apparent difference has
been noted in Madam PeIes continuous
performance so there was apparently
no connection between the Volcano and
the subterranean rush of, gas, lava and
steam, which sent the molecules of the
earth tumbling over each other in the
violent seismic waves of last Wednes-
day. On Friday evening Hilo received
another visitation on small scale.
There were two shocks about p. m,
another at $50. one at 7.15 and another
at 500. On Sunday evening at 7:20 p.

KAU FACTION FIGHT.
There promises to be a lively contest
in the county convention growing out
of the fight between the two Repub-
liean factions in Kau. 1t is likely Kau
will have two sets of delegates claim
ing seats in the convention, and the
threat is even made to test in the
courts the legality of the election of
officials whose nominations were Sc
cured by the votes of the other fac
ton. AT the precinct club meeting held
at Waiohinu last Saturday night the

a pride of Americans that people sud-
denly and spontaneously discover that
they love each other. A general is OF
little worth if he cannot make sudden
resolutions. and the same is true of a
business man.
Surely it does not take God long to
say Peace be unto you You can set
tie the question on a sudden resolution,
but a good one. 1t is noticeable that
the penitent thief not only made a
sudden change but thorough one. He
did thing that is very hard. He ad-
mitted that he was receiving a just
punishment. The hardest man to do
anything with is the man who has al
ways been SO good. And when you
ask him to become a Christian he says,
Never saw any need of it. I'll be
saved if any one is. The more one
understands the Bible and God, the
more he comes to realize the greatness
of his sin and the need of a merciful
Savior. When man is ready, frankly
to acknowledge his sins, it is great
moment. 1t is a pity if man should
deceive himself and say, I have no
need of a Savior
Another thing about the man on
, the cross is that he came right out
and said a good word for Jesus. He
said to the other thief Jesus hath done
nothing while we are justly condemn
ed 1 think it is a great thing in this
age of temptation for men to stand up
and say good word for Jesus. There
is no greater privilege than for man
to stand up in the worlds court room
and witness for his Savior. We must
both live and talk our religion. If we
do the one and not the other we are
like a man rowing with one oar.
Another notable thing in the thor
oughness of this mans conversion is
that he tried to save the other man.
To be sure he could not get down from
that rude cross upon which he must
hang and die but he felt that he could
not leave this world till he had tried
to save another. Why should a man
who has been thrilled with the love
of Calvary wish to lock it up in his
breast and not give it to others?
"Once more, this man gets a COM
forting hope, Jesus says, Today thou
shalt be with me in Paradise In this
world where death is so prevalent it
is a great thing to have a Christians
hope. Ny soul, hope thou only in God,
and I shall yet praise him. This man
had it. Have you it? Hope hope,

it. Thank God, in the Christ that man

The meeting last night opened with
the usual song service led by Mr.. Hill
lis. This brief fifteen minute period
of song is proving one of the most
helpful parts of the service DR.. Kin
.caid led in prayer and DR.. Ostrom read
the 2Sth Psalm, emphasizing especial
1y the portion from the sixth verse to
, the end. The evangelist then spoke
lof the work of the press in aiding the
work of the revival and urged that
people buy copies of the papers and
send them to friends all over the is
lands. The news of victory here would
encourage and rejoice the hearts of
workers in the other islands. DR.. Os-
from said that the press had been in
a large part responsible for the sue
cess of the campaign that has been
going on for year or more and that
two newspapers had from the first
helped carry the great Welsh revival
to victory.
Following the singing of He Lead
eth Me-" announcements for the week
were made. Mr. Butler then sang the
beautiful hymn, More Like Thee"
Or. Ostrom then offered prayer and the
hymn Jesus Sought Me" was sung.
The evangelist took as his text Jesus
said unto him, Today shalt. thou be
with me in paradise In substance
he said:
1T is very evident that there was
some reason why the incident of the
penitent thief should be given so much
at length. All the four gospels, look
ing at events from different stand
points, give prominence to this incl
dent. This man hanging UP between
life and death makes a personal re-
Quest for help and gets it. There comes
a time in every mans life when things
cease to be done for him. Then the
consciousness of obligation comes TO
him. A man comes to an hour when
he becomes responsible. Then he must
answer for himself.
is there any teaching more monor-
