THIS EVENING
ON CHRISTIAN SCIENCE

The lecture this evening on Christian
Science by DR.. Francis G. Fluno at
the Hawaiian opera House at o'clock.
will give those interested an opportu-
nifty to learn something of the truth
about Christian science, what it has to
offer as practical religion for the So
luton of today's problems and the
meeting of today's needs. The lecturer
will be introduced by Judge Sanford
B. Dole. The nature and purpose. of
Christian Science have sometimes been
misinterpreted and its methods misrep-
resented. 1t has frequently been con-
founded with systems to which it has
no resemblance whatever and for this
reason many have been turned away
from its study and ministrations. It
is for the purpose of correcting such
false impressions that these public lee
lures are given.
IF the teaching of Christian Science
seems hard to believe because of it's
radical departure from oldtirne theories
it should be examined in the light of
what is being accomplished through
the practise of this teaching. Full JUS
tice cannot be done Christian Science
in any other way. Does it alleviate
suffering when other means fail? Does
it make men better morally? Does it
bring freedom from the perplexitfes.
worries and fears of human existence?
Does it make men purer, kinder, more
Just. less selfish? If it does these
things one can well afford to suspend
the Judgment of the criticisms which
may be prompted by a. mere cursory
examination. and look more deeply into
that which brings peace and strength
to others. Indeed experience is the
only satisfactory test of the worth of
any teaching.
DIR. Fluno's lecture viii afford an op-
portunity for unprejudiced fnvestiga-
ton of the subject. and all who are
are invited 10 be present.

CANADIAN RULING On
JAPANESE IMMIGRATION

What will probably prove a damp
ener on the schemes Of those who ex-
pect to make a cleanup in shipping
Japanese laborers from here to Can
ada is the announcement of the
Canadian government that no foreign
Immigrant would be allowed a landing
unless he or she had fifty dollars in
coin over and above whatever neces-
sary money was required to take him
10 his destination. This is intended to
apply more especially to the Hindus
going to Canada. but it includes all
immigrants.
The announcement was printed yes
terday in the japanese papers of Ho-
nolulu at the request Of Consul Cen
eral Saito, who received it is an off,
cial communication from the Japanese
consulate at Vancouver. The new ruI-
ing of the Canadian government goes
into effect from December 2S. tomor-

FRED CARTER'S
BLOODED STOCK
Brings a Large Assortment of
Fine Animals by
Hil0nian.

Fred W. Carter returned by the Hilo-
nian yesterday bringing a large num-
Der of bIooded animals which he went
to the mainland to select and purchase
for various ranches The stock he
brought consists among others, of six
teen bulls, for various ranches; ten
thoroughbred shorthorn cows which are
to be the beginning of thoroughbred
herd on the Parker ranch Of thirty
five head of Shropshire and Southdown
sheep. twelve are for the Parker ranch
and thirty-two for various plantations.
Six stations are in the consignment
These will go to various ranches.
Mr.. Garter also brought four large
jacks, the beginning of an effort to raise
in the Islands some of the mules need
ed on the plantations. Mr.. Garter went
to Kentucky to look for jacks, the
Board of Agriculture and Forestry
having had considerable correspond
ence in regard to animals of this char
acter. But Mr. Carter found better
animals in California than in Ken
lucky and so selected those he brought
from the former state.
The Hilonian was given a great send
off on her departure from San Francis
co. A large part of the Hawaiian coll
ony of San Francisco was down to see
the steamer off and a Hawaiian quin-
tet played first on the vessel and after
wards on the wharf until the vessel
was well out in the stream.

CANON MACINTOSH
IN A RACE AGAINST TIME
It Is Believed He Is Making Post-Haste to Reach
Here Before the Beginning of
the New Year.

Canon Macintosh is believed to be
hurrying across two oceans and a
continent to get back to Honolulu by
January 1.
His school job depends on it,
He is expected by the Siberia, which
is scheduled to arrive here December
80.
When Canon Macintosh left here
last September to attend the General
Convention of the Protestant Episco-
pal Church at Richmond, he had been
given leave of absence for the fall
term. After the convention, he went
to England, where he was married,
and from there he wrote to the Board
of Education asking for an extension
of his leave of absence until next Sep
tember. This the board short time ago
declined to grant. This action meant
that if Canon Macintosh We're not
back in time for the beginning of
school for the winter term, he was out
of a job.
Some good friend, so the legend runs,
hit the cable, and in a few words at
about dollar a word told him what
had happened. The report is that ne

.ONOMEA PAYS NO
MORE DIVIDENDS
Profits OF Present Season Have
All Been Paid Out
to Investors.

The announcement was made yes
terday that the dividends of the Ono
mea Sugar Company would be sus-
pended till further notice. This COM
pany has been paying a dividend Of
one per cent. a month recently and be-
fore that time was paying two and a
half per cent. The stock is listed at
80 on the local exchange and has
varied from that price to 80. There
has been a constant bid for the stock
from San Francisco at 2S.75.
When asked for the reason of the
stopping of the dividend on the stock,
f. Faxon Bishop, of Brewer & Co.,
the local agents of the concern, said:
Eyes, you are correct. Dividends
have been suspended for the present.
I can not say when they viii be re-
sulmed. What is the reason that they
have been suspended? Why, 1t is the
end of the year and we have paid out
all the profits of the past season. There
is no more money with which to pay
further dividends"

Canon Macintosh by the America
Maru on Monday. He was then about
to go to Birmingham and expected to
engage in work for the Society for
the Propagation of the Gospel until
time for his return next September.
While this was the latest Mr.. Won
Holt had heard from him, he thought
it altogether probable that when he
heard of the action of the school board
he would return to Honolulu to take
up active work here.
There was a report that Canon
Macintosh had resigned his connee-
tion with st. Andrews cathedral But
this seems altogether improbable.
Neither the wardens nor vestrymen,
nor Rev. w. E. Potwine, the bishops
commissioner, had heard of it, 1t is
inconceivable that they would not have
heard if he had resigned.
Superintendent Babbitt said he had
not heard that Canon Macintosh was
returning at this time but said that

PARADE
MAY Be DROPPED
The Promotion Committee Will
Decide at a Special
Meeting.

The Grand Floral Parade of 1906
| came within an ace of being definitely
| abandoned by the Promotion Commit.
| tee yesterday, At the meeting of that
body yesterday afternoon, in fact, 6
motion to throw up the fiesta was made
| and carried and the situation was saved
only by J. A. McCandless appearing
and announcing that there was a good
prospect of a suitable person being
found to become chairman of the
parade committee and pushing the thing
through to successful conclusion. Then
the motion to abandon was withdrawn
for the time being and the mat
ter remains in statu quo until the
calling of special meeting within the
next two or three days. At this meet
ing it viii be announced whether the
proper person has been found to as
sumo charge of the affair or not and
upon the announcements rests the fate
of the third annual floral parade.
There is possibility of the Automo-
bile Club taking up the affair and hav-
ing an automobile floral parade Will
lard g. Brown stated at the meeting
that in the event of the committee hav-
ing to give up the affair he would
make an effort to bring the matter up
before the Automobile Club, not wish
ing to have the parade fall through.
There was a feeling of general re-
gret expressed by all the promotionists
at having to become pessimistie over
the prospects for the parade, it being
generally felt that TO abandon it alto
gether for this year would be a dis
to nearly everyone in Ho-
nolulu.
The Floral Parade matter was the
only question discussed at any length
at yesterdays meeting, being first
brought up by the reading of COM
from Mrs. w. M. Graham,
who suggested various things that
might be done this year to make the
parade a success. Her suggestions
were on an elaborate SCALE. being to
have the affair extend over a period
of several days, beginning with a his
toric pageant and concluding ten days
later with the Mardi Gras bal masque
of the Kilohana Art League. Many of
the suggestions were favorably regard |
ed by the committee although great |
doubts were expressed as to the prac
ticability of the program outlined. No
action was taken on the letter, pend |
ing the result of the special meeting |
to be called.
Secretary Fl. p. Wood wrote from |
suggesting the desirability |
Of having a Hawaiian headquarters at
the Capitol during the Congressional
session and transferring it to New
York city between sessions. At this
headquarters he thought a general |
agency for Hawaiian products could be
successfully and the profits
from the commercial side of the bust
ness practically maintain it, while Ha
waiian promotion literature could be
distributed there and a Hawaiian |
bureau of information thus maintain
I'd at slight expense.
The possibilities of such an Office
we're favorably considered but it was
.hought best to take no definite steps |
n the matter pending further details /
