THE OVERFLOW MEETING.

After the service in the main audi
toriun last night had begun singing
was heard in the chapel. Mr.. Wadman
went out and found the chapel full of
people who could not get into the au-
ditorium. A song service was held and
Mr.. Wadman addressed the meeting.
At the close seven made decisions to
accept Christ, one man going home with
the speaker and wrestling with the
question till he saw the light.

is a class for Chinese girls and one for
Hawaiian girls. under Mrs. Chin and
Miss Potwine. The work of the Sunday
School is one of our problems to
be solved except along the lines of
the Chinese mems Bible class of which
we have tgyc numbering between thir-
ty and forty members. We have num-
bers of Hawaiian and doubtless of
Chinese boys and girls VINO should be
in the Sunday School, and with few
more as good teachers as we already
have. and earnest work in the way of
calling in the homes, ST. EliZabeth'S
might have a large Sunday School. This
1 am confident will come about in the
near future.
CONCERNING MEMS WORK.
We have classes for Chinese men
on four evenings of the week. Monday,
Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, at
which about seventy earnest students
are enrolled. On Wednesday even
ings, the service in church is followed
by the gathering OF the Hawaiian boys
in one part of the House, the Chinese
in another, for games, music, reading,
etc. On Saturday evenings the Ha-
waiian boys meet again-there are
about thirty on the roll.
Religious instruction is given all
Chinese men who wish to enter the
class. and there are many Thurs
day and Friday evenings during the
latter part of the school session. A
brief service is held in the church at
8 at the close of class work each night.
Two large classes of Chinese men re-
ceive instruction in the Sunday School
The work is most inspiring and full of

CRIMINAL IGNORANCE

one Hendricks, superintendent of in
surance for New York, is Just now
affording shining example of how
little of his duties a sworn state official
may know or care about, and still hold
his job.
Hendricks has been grilled by the
insurance investigating committee in
New York city. He gave a most re-
markable exhibition of ignorance, and
at the conclusion of his testimony II
was easy to understand how the big
insurance companies were able to
manipulate, bullyrag and handle affairs
In Gotham which eventuated in the
present unsavory mess.
What Hendricks said he knew about
the facts OF insurance in New York
state and city may be summed up in
one word: Nothing. On every point
asked him, he was ignorant. He had
no knowledge whatever of any of the
inside workings of the company, the
handling of the business, its manipula-
tions, the juggling of figures, assets,
securities, etc. He knew no more about
the dummy directors, bond-signing
office boys, syndicate complications and
campaign payments than if he had
been dead. At stated intervals he de-
manded and secured from the COM
panies statements of their business
checked these statements with the
books they were drawn from, certified
that they were correct, and left the
details to imagination, taking the state
ments ION faith"
Such insurance departments are not
only farcical but criminal. The people
depend on the insurance commissioner
for definite reports on companies in
which they intend to become interested.
If the insurance commissioner neglect
his duty in handling his office, he vlo-
lates his oath, whether it be through
intentional fraud, carelessness or
ignorance. superintendent Hendricks
possibly belongs to the latter class
but in none is he a fit holder of that
office, and the sooner he gets out the
better.

THE SPIRIT OF GIVING

pie because of the abuses which have
grown up around it and which they
themselves have helped to establish.
These abuses consist chiefly i'm eXtrav-
agant and indiscriminate giving. 1t
has come to pass that men and women
make gifts on this occasion through
a sense of compulsion, because for one
reason and another, apart from the af-
fection which might prompt such to-
kens, they feel themselves under OBJ
LEGATIONS to the individual. and that.
one person sent them a gift last year,

CONTRAST OF FATHER AND SON

From the Kansas City Star:
Contrast if you please the attitude
Of the president of the United States
Steel corporation with that of his
father. The old gentleman asserts that
if the reports are true his relations
with his son are ended. And then he
gives his opinion of the man who, when
fortune came, would desert the wife
who had done the housework and sew
ing and had reared the children when
her husband was earning $40 a month.
The elder Corey, who at 70 is still tax
collector of a Pennsylvania town, may
never have had $1,000 in his life, but he
is not blinded by the glitter of his
sons millions. by the side of his
father doesn't the head of the steel
trust, with all his wealth, appear lit
tie and cheap? Aren't the old mans
sound sense and appreciation of right
and wrong worth infinitely more than
his sons money? In short, has there
been Il more striking contrast recently
between the material and the ideal
than that implied in Alfred Corey's
comment on the divorce scandal which
has diSgraced his son?

MUSIC AND
THE DRAMA
"The Messiah"

The finishing touches have been
placed on the preparatory work by
Prof. jain and the Los Angeles Cho-
raj society for the presentation of "The
Messiah" at the Mason theater tomor-
row afternoon. Mrs. Lyon, the So
prano, who received her musical edu-
cation in Boston, has proven very sat
isfactory to the musical director. Her
experience in singing the soprano role
in "rThe Messiah" throughout New
Hampshire and the New England
states fitted her for the work.
Russo. by the assistance of his Amer
lean wife and Director jain, has thor
oughly mastered the difficulties of
English pronunciation, while his great
ability as a singer has allowed him
to fit into the work of oratorio in II
most artistic manner. The chorus is
exceedingly enthusiastic in the work
and the last rehearsal yesterday dis
closed their ability to present THE
Messiah in a most effective manner.
Arnold Krauss, In charge of the Sym
phony orchestra members, guarantee
their part Of the work to be in perfect
condition.

Inc question OF department marks
on reports was then taken up and any
boy who had received an "Fo for fair

While good marks were at a pre-
MUM.
What did you get on your report?"
asked the judge of one negro

continued with hopeful grin.
Ihen came u slight lull while Judge
wilbur talked with Superintendent
Foshay and some Of the directors. Left
10 themselves, the boys began planning
nlschief, and after a brief argument
between two youngsters which began
with them sticking out their tongues
at one another the two lads attempted
to clinch but they were seized by their
mothers. Then came whispering
sound, and boys in various parts of the
court room and men and women began
to move about unpleasantly and give
sudden jumps. The boys were using a
cannonade of spit balls and everyone
was uneasy until the judge started the
examinations again.
One boy admitted that sleeping at
home was preferable to sleeping in a
barn. although he thought that an un-
necessary amount of lace washing was
required.
Then came the start of the day. One
of the board of examiners attempted
a private examination among some of
the little boys, and the first he met
were the Gold Dust twins" Frost and
Jumbo, two little pickaninny waits.
Have you been going to school
regularly, boys?" inquired the exam
iner.
The boys looked at one another in ap-
pareAt confusion and rolled their eyes.

The examiner discontinued the exam
nation.
Finally, after one of the boys had
presented holly to the Judge and all
the boys had been examined and given
candy, the most successful examination
in the history of the juvenile court was
completed and the boys were dismissed.
All had received kind words from the
Judge and everyone had been remem-
| bered.

the concert is composed of the Chi
