The members of the Honolulu HUI
name Society held their first annual
meeting yesterday morning in the
lounging room of the Alexander Young
hotel, elected officers for the ensuing
year, discussed new plans, and outlined
the work for the year, among the inn
portant things discussed being an invi-
tation to the California society to come
here, and a discussion of the cruel
methods of handling cattle shipped to
market.
The meeting was most enthusiastic
one, and the officers and members were
delighted with the results for the past
year, as shown by the various reports
submitted There were several places
kindly offered to the society for their
place of meeting this year, but after
due discussion it was decided to ac-
! cept the offer of the Alexander Young
and use the lounging room of the hotel.
The time of the meetings this year viii
be the first Friday morning of every
month at $50 o'clock. Lack of time
prevented the definite settlement of
any plan for an entertainment this year,
but this matter will be taken up at
the meeting. The membership dues for
the year will remain the same, namely,
fifty dollars for a life membership, or
one dollar per year, and anyone wish
ing to join is requested to send his or
her name to the president.
California Society May Come.
During the session, Allan Herbert
gave a most interesting account Of his
attendance, during his recent visit to
the Coast, at the annual meeting of the
California Humane Society. At this
meeting Mr.. Herbert was selected an
honorary member of that branch of the
society and took advantage of the oc-
casion to invite the Calif6rnians to
hold their next annual meeting in Ho-
nolulu. The suggestion was received
with enthusiasm, and Mr.. Herbert ex-
poets soon to receive a letter formally
announcing this city as the next annual
meeting place of the California HUI
name Society.
President s Report.
The report read by Mrs. Sanford B,
Dole, the president of the society, in
part, was;
The first year of the Hawaiian HUI
mane Society has ended, and it be-
> hooves us to ask what has been accom-
plisheds During this year only four
cases of cruelty to children have come
to my personal notice-few enough
and none of these aggravated cases
with one exception. There have been
ten cases of cruelty to animals brought
to me. In one case-of dog-a veter-
mary surgeon was employed and paid
!. by the society. A force of twenty
J volunteer humane officers were given
badges and commissions, these com
missions giving power TO arrest IN case
of necessity. / sent out notices to
these officers-many of whom l am sure
were very much interested in the work
