Makes Men of Bad Boys.

Superintendent Gibson is achieving
wonders with the bad boys sent to the
Bows Reform School at Waialee. The
field and manual labor required of the
boys is resulting in documentary train
ing which gives the young fellows
something at least of trade on which
to commence to earn their livelihood
when they leave the institution. With
the majority of the boys leaving the
place they regret that thev can not re-
main longer in order to yet a better
knowledge of the trade they have been
acquiring knowledge of since their in
generation. A young fellow came up
Sunday with Court Officer Fred Weed,
and to the latter he expressed the re-
greet that he did not have a year
longer to serve in order that he might
become more proficient in blacksmith
ing and engineroom work. Many of
them, on returning to town, have ex-
pressed their firm resolve to mingle
no more with the associates of former
days, with whom they got into trouble,
and thus ran afoul of the police.

Burglars Busy Again.

Following closely upon. the heels OF
the daylight burglary in College Hills
on Sunday morning bold burglary
was committed Monday night at the
residence of Tom Birmingham, travel
ing representative of E. o. Hall & Son,
at the corner of Lunalilo and Piik0i
streets, the intruders getting away
with some valuable rings, a gold pin,
some small trinkets and $l3 in cash.
The burglary was committed between
8 and 10 o clock while the Burning
hams were absent. On returning home
about 10 they found the front door
open and they found their home had
been ransacked. Mr.. Birmingham mott
fed the police department. The police
learned that the burglar had gained
entrance by means of ladder laid
against a window. On leaving the
house the burglar went out the front
door.
The specials of the police department
were at once massed in the Makiki dis
trict and instructions given to bring
in suspicious-looking characters. No
body was brought in and the burglars
made good their escape.
There are many other cases of petty
thievery reported in the Makiki dis
trict and skeleton keys are said to
have been the means of entrance to

Chief of Detectives Kalakiela has
partially solved the query of when an
engagement to marry may not altogeth-

the case of the pair of Chinese SWANS
who wooed and thought they had won
the affections of pair of Hawaiian
damsels Yesterday the girls decided
they would not marry either of the
Chinese who had complained to the
chief, but one said that she had de-
cided to wed a former Chinese admirer,
and so that is one case where an en-

THE ILLINOIS ISSUE

ALL they stood open there day and night to youth
easy schools Of habit, with entrance requirements
and minimum fees sanctioned by us, apparently.
And now a year without them-and what Of it? Well,
one disputes that the gross quantity Of alcoholics
consumed in the COMMUNICATIONS and quarres and
allis greatly diminished; definite physiological gain,
anyway. The confirmed drinkers have drunk less and
been drunk times The doctors tell that's bet
for them Some have shown considerable periods Of
sobriety. The wives generally, with Mrs. Hurd prefer
the "spreed'' Variety in pusanimity, is
worth something. Hard cider has been in increased
demand, and thoughtful tourist sent to his dis
gruntled and dyspeptic father full hogshead OF ia
maica Only the stomach pump saved some Of them
after this. But to young with habits forming
(and girls are Of course equally nvoved with too
much ye and blood to sneak for drinks,
who going to the bar because the ahead went
to these we and find such year record Of adj
vancement and social good living Of increased town
pride and athletic and right marrying, that for
these alone ready, with the farmers wife, to go
down in the dirt to keep the saloon from reestabish

Solid Against the Saloon

Reference made in these columns last week to the
great Federal Council of the Churches of Christ in
America which met in Philadelphia in the early part Of
December This important convention composed of
$50 delegates from thrtytwo denominations, having
membership of eighteen millions and fifty millions
of adherents.
Readers Of the Illinois Issue will be especially inter
ested in the attitude Of this great representative Chris
tan body toward the drink problem.
Besides refusing to listen to sanderer of the Anti
Saloon League, the council recommended the education
of the young by temperance lessons in the Sunday
Schools and the introduction into secular schools of
primary and secondary grades Of such books shall
make plain the effect of alcoholic ndug upon body
and mind and the effect Of the traffic upon and
social conditions
It recommended the Of every organiza
ton enterprise which strengthens sentiment against
the and sale of alcohol beverages the re-epoy
ment of the old methods Of gospel temperance with the
public and private declaration that men and women
should be- and by the grace Of God may be delivered
from the thrall Of strong drink.
It recommended campaign Of temperance pledge
signing by young and DID, and the appeal to citizenship
that prohibtory laws already upon the statute books of
the several states shall be enforced and that oppor
tunity presents, these shall be supplemented by
adequate provisions until the rule of the state shall be
the standard Of conviction.
The following recommendation concerning Judge Taft,
President-eect, received with loud applause
eve also recommend the appointment by the
president Of the council of committee Of seven, of
which committee he shall be chairman to wait upon
the Presdent-eect Of the United States, in the
Of the council, offering to him our hearty
gratulations upon the attitude which he has person
ally assumed toward the of strong drink, and
couraged by his word and act, praying him to give
the influence Of his high Office God shall lead him,
to the promotion Of sobriety throughout the nation
which he has been called to rule and present
ing to him likewise the action Of this council in
which the Federated Churches Of America declare
their convictions upon this great issue.
eve commend the action of Congress for the
abolition Of the beer selling caneen in military
establishment and national soldiers homes and also
the appropriation to this date Of nearly 100000
for the erection, equipment and maintenance Of
recreation buildings for the benefit of the enlisted
men; and urge the membership of our churches

Nancy accepted all these indignites with such scrip

OF his broad back as he knelt his bunk But Nancy
always had one cheek ready to turn when the other
smltten, and even their dersion of his faith did
provoke him to violence But he did not grin as
