PAPAYAS, PEARS AND MANGOES
The crop of mangoes is the largest
ever seen in Kona, and is accompanied
by little or no blight. It will rot by
the ton, although the Kona mango is
a particularly fine article. for the local
population cannot consume one per
cent of the crop and as to shipping it
to Honolulu-well. we have troubles
enough already without trying to in
vent any new ones. AS TO papayas,
they are half a cent apiece for your
piek-and alligator pears are a cent
each. In Honolulu the same kind of
papayas sell for ten cents each and
pears are two or three for a quarter.
Why don't we ship them to Honolulu?

MISS Boards ORPHANAGE.
We hear that Miss Beard has offered
her land and buildings, recently used
as the Kona Orphanage, to the govern
nent, as Boys Home for the use
of the boys from Molokai. The price
named by Miss Beard is understood to
be $4,000. The property is a bargain
at that price. There are nine or ten
building in good condition besides
sheds, stables and outhouses and
number of water tanks ample for the
use of the institution. In addition
there is a good area of rich land, most
of which is cleared and available for
cultivation of all the varieties of fruit
and vegetables which grow so well in
Kona. The bulk of the food used by
the home could be raised on the prem
ises. 1t is the feeling here that the
boys would be infinitely better off in
Kona than they will be cooped up on
the hot coral fiat at Kalihi, where, we
are informed, the Board of Health con-
locating them.

available engine on the Cumberland

the coal east. as well as to rush for

them in shape and give everything
very prompt movement at all points.
This ought to mean a lot more of
work in the shops as the railroad
people are always complaining that
they haven't the business to justify
any expenditures in repairs. This
coal will require over two hundred
car loads and must be in Baltimore
before the 18th. less than ten days

SECOND DAY OF
THE CHAUTAU UQUA
Dean SouthWick, of Boston,
viii Be the Speaker at
Sundays Sessions.

Saturday afternoons program Of
the Clarksburg chautauqua opened
at 2 o'clock with musical number
by Saws orchestra, after which "A.
by Shaw's orchestra, after which A.
from Ohio, began an address on the
subject, The Greatest People on
Earth"
The attendance for the afternoon
was about 500.
Mr.. Riggs expressed his disbelief
in the theory of mans evolution from
the. monkey tribe averring that e at
least, was not thus descended, and
declared that physical man had not
changed from the form In which he
was first created. YETI said he,
some credence might be attached to
the theory that some put forth, OF
mans descending from a. fish, judg-
ing from the number of suckers in
the world"
The remainder Of his talk was
continuation of his afternoon lecture
Musical Fits and Misfts''-which
he had not been able to finish, owing
to lack of time. and he began another
division of his lecture, relating 10
church music.
Along this line Mr.. Riggs said in
part:
Music and Christianity are closely
allied. 1t Is true that one could take
from the worlds collection of liter
ature all those books tina. did not
pertain to religion, and. literature
would suffer no great loss. hut 1t is
equally true that one could take from
the worlds collection Of music all
that portion that did not belong to
church music. and you could never
miss the part that had beea taken
away.
THE progress Of music has been
parallel with the progress of Chris
tlanity. The heather tribes of to-
day have no conception of music.
Even the negro race would have had
no talent for music, had they not
been brought under the Influence of
Christianity"
With an amusing description Of an
old time church service, interspersed
with realistic limitations Of the village
choir, and n few whistlins selections,
which held the audience cntranced
with their liquid melody. Mr. Riggs
The attendance at Friday evenings
session was slightly in advance over
that of the afternoon, and the audi
ence was even more appreciative.
After the rendition of several selee-
tIons by shaw's orchestra, President
Duncan in introducing the speaker to
the audience stated that although
last years chautauqua had come out
somewhat in the hole he hoped to
come out even this year and thus
secure to the people OF Clarksburg
the Chautauqua Assembly. as a per-
maRent institution.
spillman Riggs. of Chicago, then
began his lecture, which he said
would be pot pourrl of stories, wit,
humor, and philosophy. He enter
tanned the assembly with several
amusing stories connected with the
evolution theory.
At tonight's session there will be
an entertainment by s. 81. spedon, of
New York, cartoonist.
The Mozart Concert Company will
appear the first time tomorrow af-
ternoon at o'clock and Congress
man Weber will deliver a lecture at
$3.50 o'clock.
The evening lecture at s:45 will be
in the nature Of recital and will be
given by Dean Henry L. southwick,
Of Boston.
