known one by Concone. At the eleva-
tion OF the host P. K. Tallet rendered
a selection from Bohm's Lilies OF the
Valley" as a violin obligato in most
excellent way
Bishop Da Silva came within the
chancei robed in a cassock Of a rich
light violet color with biretta and
ehalotte Of the same hue and richly
embossed slippers Two little acolytes
bore the train OF the cassock Follow
ing the ceremonial OF robing. as he

In this he said that he had come es-
peciaily To minister to his eountrymen;
that he had been in this ministry in
San Francisco and other parts of the
United States and that he expected TO
visit all parts Of these islands. He

ner Of speaking. In iatoning the ser
vice his voice IS musical and well
modulate6. and his enunciation OF the
sonorous Latin delightful 10 the ear

METHODIST WORK
GROWING GREAT
Final Conference Appointments
We're Announced
Yesterday.

What is always the final business
Of a Methodist conference, the an
nouncement of the appointments, was
completed yesterday. following the
morning service at the First Method
ist church. Rev. J. W. Wadman read
the appointments. Both in the Japa-
nese and the Korean work there are
a great many changes in the field of
labor, in conformity with the itfnerant
system of the church. In the an
nouncements Of work, and of appoint
ments TO the work, there were a num-
Der of pulpits and other posts ''to be
supplied" In most of these cases the
hope is to secure additional workers.
For instance, the posts of mission
aries TO the Japanese and to the ko-
reans in Honolulu are both ito be
supplied In the case of the Korean
work it is the expectation that the
Rev. W. c. swearer win be secured.
He speaks the Korean language and
has evidenced great fitness for the
work. For the japanese work it is
hoped that a suitable worker win be
secured.
Thirteen years ago one lone Meth
odist pastor arrived in Hawaii and
began to organize the work. A few
later a self-constituted and
self-supporting Japanese Methodist
arrived. Today there are
forty-five mission stations or centers,
eighteen organized churches, a mem
bership of 1856, with an increase dur
ing the past year OF 24s. There is
property valued at 100000 without in
cumbrance, twenty-three evangelists
under supervision. and two Advocates
published, one in japanese, the other
in Korean, with 1900 subscribers.
The appointments of the Hawaiian
Mission of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, 190s-Oe. John w. wadman, su-
are as follows:

PREMIUMS FOR GOOD ROADS

The use OF the split log drag as the
cheapest and most effective method
of making good roads is becoming
popular all over the state. The
Pierce County Fair Board recently
decided to offer a list of four sub
stantial prizes, the smallest Of which
is $S, for the best split log drag eX
hibited at their fair. In awarding
the prizes the judges are instructed
to take into consideration the a
mount of improvement which each
drag has accomplished on stretch
of road during the summer. Tie
Board is going to hold a meeting at
which q member of the Highway
Division of the State Geological Sur
vey at Madison will instruct the con
testants on how to make their drilg-,
and how to use them. A pamphlet
on the drag issued 10y the Highway
Division, will be distributed at. the
same time.
The Fair Board is urging the town
officers to grade up the roads which
are to be in the contest, and to credit
the contestants on their road taxes
for the time put in dragging.
This progressive board has worked
out scheme that cannot fail to be
of very great benefit to the roads OF
their county. Every farmer and
farmers boy within miles Of the fair
grounds will either learn the useful
ness of the drag by taking part in
the contest or by seeing and driving
over roads which his neighbors have
made with it in the contest.
1t is to be hoped that many other
organizations will adopt this plan
With about u third OF the money
now spent on clay or loan roads OF
the state, they could be kept in first
class condition by using the drag.
There ought to be such drag on
every mile of clay or loan road in
the state, and the farmers paid by
the town for using 1t after every rain.
If this were the case the improvement
of such roads would be almost be-
yond belief. If any OF our readers
are interested they can get a pamph-
let telling how to make and use the
drag by writing to the Highway
Division of the State Geologicsl Sur
vey at Madison. They distribute
them free to any who isinterested
enough to drop them card asking
for one.

"Wantin' to trim up the meetin'-

on Tobias grave than to hev 'em a

spairing look coming into her eyes. Il
won't stay, mother. I'll jest take 'em
over to the meetin' house an give 'em
to Mrs. Lackey, and then I'll come
right back"
Mrs. Toon rested her head against
the hard brown back of the old rock
er and closed her eyes as if the
sight of the woman before her was
more than she could endure.
Her face was as homely and brown
as the old rocker itself Hard, I'M
yielding lines had formed network
around the mouth and between the
cold, pale eyes that had never looked
with anything but suspicion and Sc
verify upon her daughter-in-law, who
had married her stupid son Tobia out
of gratitude fol the home he had
creature the hard old woman had
ever loved and whose grave lay COW
cred with winding sheet of snow this
Easter-tide.
The younger woman stood silently
before this august presence, nervously
clasping and unclasping her thin
white hands, from which she had re-
moved her wedding ring a few hours
previously. She felt as she stood
there that she would gladly lay down
her life if she might stay just five min
utes in the little church that lay like
black patch in silver flood far
down the road.
She must see-her heart beat so
loud she was afraid the statue in the
motionless chair would hear it. She
took several steps toward the door.
Mrs. Toon suddenly opened her eyes
and sat bolt upright.
$50 you air goin', Sarepty?" she
said, raising her hard old voice till it
cracked in her throat and brought on
a coughing fit. Sarepty suddenly knelt
by her side and took the hard old
hands caressingly between her own.

think I'd better go? l promised, an

fast speeding down the road, waited
along by the wind like thistle, she
was so slight thing.
She seemed in her somber dress like
a wrath as she sped along the desert
ed road that lay like silver ribbon
in the gathering gloom When she
had gone about quarter of a mile,
she put her hand into her bosom and
drew out bit of looking-glass wrapped
in piece of paper She let her shawl
slip from her head onto her shoulders
and. turning her face toward the set
ting sun, held up the glass.
The wind caught her rich brown
hair that seemed too heavy for her
small head and blew it into little ring
let's around her pale face. Her wide,
brown eyes had hungry, frightened
look and seemed full of unshed tears.
She gazed into the glass for several
minutes with a questioning, imploring
look. then with a sudden, desperate
movement, she flung it far from her
and sped along.
The Enclosed windows of the church,
sending rich, warm radiance out into
the gloom, seemed to Sarepty like the
gateway of heaven. Some of the beams
fell on the graves that clustered
around the old church, and flooded
with gold one far removed from all
the rest.
Sarepty opened the gate and almost
flew toward that golden grave. She
fell on her knees in the snow and
placed L lily on the snow-covered
grave ct the sleeper. A moment later
she haG entered the church.
Here's Sarepty with the lilies" eX-
claimed Mrs Lackey, as Sarepty glided
in and stood tremblingly by the old
sheetiron stove. The lights blinded
her at first, then with returning vision
two figures alone became visible to
her. A man was standing on STEP
ladder looking down into the eyes Of
a beautiful girl who was reaching
trailing vine toward him.
The man, attracted by Sarepty's
burning gaze. turned suddenly and
