al of the minutes of Tuesdays session,
the Synod proceeded with the regular
business before it.
Rev. 4. o. Brown. of Brownwood,

and the society to the attention and sup.
port Of the church.
SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES.
The report of the committee on
Schools and Colleges excited quite
little debating and there were several
amendments before the report was
adopted
This report reciteS the action of the
General Assembly with reference to the
general cause OF Christian Education
and its endeavor, through an executive
committee, to unity the schools and col
leges throughout the church. 1t also

introduce mission studies as a part OF
their work.

ISLAND BOATS ARRIVE.

Four boats of the Inter-Island S. N.
Co. made port yesterday morning. At
1920 the Likelike, Captain Naopala,
arrived from Nahiku, Maui, with those
who left here Friday on the excursion
to view the rubber plantations on
Maui. At 3:16 a. m. the Iwalani, Cap
tain Self, came in from Maui and Mo-
lokai ports with few passengers and
assorted freight, including 80 head of
cattle, 25 calves, scrap iron, pigs, eggs,
chickens and sundries. She also
brought one bag of mail. which for
some reason was not called for all day
yesterday. The Maui made port from
Kauai, taking the run of the w. G.
Hail.. at 2:40 a. m. She reported the
ship Governor Robe discharging coal
at Eleele, the steamer Mikahala load
ing 1900 bags of sugar at Waimea, and
good weather on Kauai. The Niihau
arrived from Ahukini at 2:15 a. m,
having made two trips to that port
within three days with COAL The Maui
will probably go out to Kauai on the
W. G. Halls run again tomorrow.

SERMONON SIN

GA bachelor is an outlaw because
he defes the greatest of our social in
stitutions, viz, matrimony.
"An old maid is not an outlaw, she
has not defied, she is a victim of cir
cumstances and can not take the posi-
tion of the aggressor.
cit is better to be sinned against
than to SIM
-Pecta in "The Lantern
Don't be bachelor, it is a sin. There
are other kinds of sins, too. It is a
sin not to buy furniture now when it
can be had so cheap from j. HoPP &
CO., the King street establishment
which is having such big sale of
furniture this month at such little
prices.
Wallach has tackled the hook worm
sin and common report has it that he is
curing it. But Wal1ach has not yet
furniture. It is sin, however, to have
worm eaten furniture in your home.
The worm eaten pieces are contagious.
Borers go from one piece to another.
Stop SHINING. Sell your worm eaten
stuff to the secondhand man-that is
a sin, also, but he won't mind it. Any
way he will pass the sin along.
After SHINING, come to us, buy new
furniture-and sin no more.
A final sin. 1t is sin to be decietful
The man who buys soft wood rubbish
and stains it to resemble weathered
oak furniture is like the old maid who |
wears switch-married women some |
times have switches also-she deceives
no one except herself. But it is a sin |
20 deceive yourself.

Honolulu People Inspect Cruiser
Catinat at the Naval
Wharf.

Music, dancing and gymnastics were
| informally the entertaining events on
the French cruiser Catinat, forward,
yesterday afternoon, and these inno-
| cent diversions very much delighted
many Honolulu people who took advan-
tage of the man-of-war being thrown
open for public inspection between l
and 5 o'clock
Forward the sailors amused them
selves and their visitors. Aft Commo-
dore Buchard, his officers and a few
Honolulu friends passed a pleasant aft
ernoon.
The jackies are handy with musical
instruments and the mandolin and
guitar furnished inspiration for the
foot, bare and otherwise, of man-of- war
men who danced together around the
capstan. Between the dances some of
the men had wrestling matches, stood
on their hands and walked the deck
in that manner, provoking laughter;
others turned somersaults and engaged
in other feats of dexterity and nimble-
ness.
On the gun deck there were scores
of men engaged in playing cards or
writing letters. Most of them appear
ed to be wonderfully well supplied with
picture postal cards which they kindly
allowed visitors to examine. Many of
the cards were from relatives and
friends of the jackies at home in
France. Some of the crew were sleep
ing, while others, as was necessary,
were engaged in various everlasting
duties for some one to perform about
the vessel.
A huge tri-color foated aft. Much
interest was excited by the side-board
searchlights extended by the drop of
a hinged port and, when not ready for
use, shut back in the manner in which
a folding camera is closed.
Particular notice was given the quar-
ter7gallery. the comfortable balcony
running around the Catinat s stern for
the use of the chief naval representa-
tive aboard, in this case Commodore
Buchard, and his staff, the principal s
quarters opening directly on to this
railed-in "lanai'

principals.
For some time the two young people
have been lovers and desired TO get

his son should secure a college educa-
tion was the ambition of the father OF
young Morton, and the lad appeared
TO agree TO this
According to a story which is in cir
culatiou here, the father, short time
before the disappearance, gave his
son $780, which was to be used to pay
his expenses at college. The lad, how
ever, appears to have planned ether
wise
He departed ostensibly for the pur-
pose OF arranging to attend college
at Chicago but with him, 1t has since
developed, went the young Olson girl
At the time Of her disappearance the
girl was employed at local candy
manufacturing institution

message was sent TO her home ana
this elected the information that She
had left home with the avoWed inten-
tion of going TO work as usual How
ever she never appeared az the place
where she was employed, and later a
note was found which had been writ
ter by her TO her sister.
In this she announced that she was
going TO run away 10 Chicago with

married i'm that city Since their de-
parture not a word has been received

Do You Wear a Soup strainer

The pretty glfi lroWned.
Suppose" she said, that the
waiter had spilled that plate Of soup
over your head. Would you have
scooped the remnants off with your
hand and eaten them?"
mo, certainly not" he answered,
and with an air of disgust he looked
from the window out at the bathers,
the white sand and the sunlit sea.
Then, for goodness sake" she
cried, stop sucking them off your mus
tache. Ii Is hideous to see you. After
every spoonful you open your mouth,
and slowly and complacently, as IL you
were doing something laudable, YOU
take your mustache between your lips
and suck the soup remnants from OFF:
the hairs If you wouldn't eat soup
that had been among the hair on your
scalp, why should you eat II after ii
has been among the hair on your upper
lip?"
He flushed.
Many young man has been

eating soup out of his mustache."
