QUARTER OF
A CENTURY
Anniversary Celebration of
HonuluIu's Lusty
Y. M. C.. A.

The twenty-fifth anniversary Of the
founding of the Y. NJ. c. A. in Homo
lulu was celebrated yesterday. Tive
separate meetings, led by the same
committee which had the dedication
of the then new building in charge,
were the features of the day; one at
noon, a praise service led by w. W.
Hall, and a night meeting which was
largely attended.
The speakers at the noon meeting
were Capt. Isaiah Bray, who spoke
feelingly of the early days of the Y.
NJ. C. A. of which he was the first
general secretary, and Rev. ]. w.
Wadman. Mr.. wadman was not one
of the charter members but in his in
PRODUCTION Mr.. Hall spoke of him as
a man who had the interests of the as
ISOLATION at heart AT the close of his
well delivered speech, Mr.. Wadman
expressed the wish that he might be
present at the fiftieth anniversary eel
ebration, twenty-five years from now.
1t was the night service which drew
the public. The directors were in line
to receive the visitors and made them
all welcome.
P. c. Jones was the first speaker on
the program. He told of the first
meetings held to form the Y. NJ. C. A.
and gave interesting accounts of the
early days. The lease, he said, was
drawn up by him. When it was COM
pleted he showed it to a lawyer who.
after glancing over it, said he could
not make out whether Mr.. Jones had
leased the land from Mr.. Waterhouse
or whether Mr. Waterhouse had leased
it from him.
The building when completed cost

s265.57-the first time, Mr. Jones said,
he had ever known of money being
left over where an enterprise of this
sort was in hand.
The speaker went on to say that
there was some talk of erecting a new
building. He was opposed to the plan,
and said that he thought all of the

Anti-SaIOon League Leader Replies to
Speakers Cannon's Letter.

Harrisburg, Nov. Rev. S. f. Mich
olson, state superintendent OF the anti
saloon league, has made public a let
ter in reply to Speaker Cannon, who
had referred to DR.. Nicholson in the
course of his letter from Danvllle, ILL.,,
to Bishop Bristol as misrepresenting
the speakers attitude on the Littlef1eld
bill.
DR.. Nicholson says in part:
II note that you excuse responsible
ity on the ground that the first session
of the Sixtieth congress did not re-
port the Littlefield bill. and that you
had no power to compel the committee
to report 1t. That is not the question
at all. So far as the last session is
concerned. the question is one rather of
the makeup of the committees. Just
why it could have simply happened
that the judiciary committee, the COM
mittee on the alcoholic traffic, and the
committee on the District of Columbia,
whose makeup concerned important
temperance measures so Vitaly were
temperance bill will continue to be a
query by thousands of people
THE facts in brief are that you in
terested yourself at the close of the
first session of the Fifty-ninth con-
gress in seeing that a report on the
Littlefeld bill went over until the next
session: that when that session arrived
you and the committee of which you
are chairman failed to make any pro
vision for consideration of the bill. al
though the temperance people of the
country were clamoring for considera-
tion; that the committee on judiciary
which had reported the bill in the pre-
vious congress was so changed that as
q matter of fact a report could not be
secured from II on this measure during
the first half Of the Sixtieth congress
and that when the delegation from the
Methodist conference was In session
you took the responsibility OF practi-
cally saying the bill was unconstitu-
tional"

BIG NEW PUMP
MORE THAN DOUBLE CAPACITY
OF OLD MAcHINE-2,o0o YARDS
PER DAY.
Arrived Yesterday and Will Be Set to
Work Next Week On River
Plant-Much Work In

The new pump for the Cairo Con
tracing and Dredging Company arriy
ed yesteiay and will be put on the
boat at once. II weighs 24.S00
pounds. has six-inch shaft, and 80
inch runner; the pump is rectangular,
lined with p inch sheet steel and will
stand great deal more wear than the
old machine, But the most import,
ant point of advantage of this new
machine over the old lies in its ca.
.pacity which at a very low estimate
is more than double. The old pump
has brought in an average of 600 cubic
yards OF solid material per day; the
new pump at a low estimate as stated
will bring in 2,O00 cubic yards per day
of 20 hours.
The company's boat lies on the
Ohio side OF the city where John T.
Rennie will place the new machine
upon her, after which she will be tow.
ed to her moorings in the Mississippi
to resume operations. President Ma
gee expects that the new machine will
be ready for work next week and will
begin at once if the river shall be low
