The week of prayer was ob- served by the school this year in the same way as has been the custom for several years. The pastor or one of the teachers gave an address each evening dealing in as simple and practi- cal way as possible with the Christian Life. This was either proceeded or followed by pray CT service.

Four of the teachers in the Training school brought letters from their home churches, One adult receiv- ed christian baptism and four in fants were brought to. the altar to be received as children of the covenant. The last week in Dec ember was set aside as the week of prayer. The meetings closed on Friday evening when we had two meetings: one il the church at the regular hour and another held in the home of MT. Jackson in the village. This latter service was continued until midnight. During the meeting many earnest testimonies were given and a spirit ot consecration prevailed. The meeting was so helpful that it is thought best to continue the practise at the beginning of each new year.

FACTS ABOUT KILLISNOO

Killisnoo is village of about three hundred and fifty people some seventy miles from Sitka.
 The steam ship, "Geolgia" from Juneau to Sitka calls at this port. In this island village is located a guano factory.
 During the summer months a large number of white men from the states are employed in the factory but during the wintera watchman at the factory and a public school teacher are the only white people left.
 Some fifteen years ago we had a missionary stationed there and a church services were held in the public school building. The work however was discon- tinued when the building was destroyed by fire and the field has not been occupied by our church since then.
 At the present time the people are asking for a missionary and church. Presbytery feels that these people should have at least a native worker stationed there. As it is, drunkenness and i'm morality are having full sway. The whole village is being de- graded morally through the in fluence of bad men. Besides this they are still living in heath en darkness, old custom feasts are held and many believe in witchcraft. Che such field un- occupied weakens materially the work in other places because the people travel from place to place continually and many are brought under their influence. It is one of the places that must be occu- pied before Presbytery can feel that the people under their care are being reached by the Gospel message.

LAME DUCK OFF
THIS AFTERNOON

Unless something unforeseen hap
pens between now and three O'Clock
the collier Prometheus, with the cruis-
er Chattanooga in tow and the Cleve-
land as convoy, will sail for San Fran
cisco. Final preparations for the de-
parture of the special squadron were
being made on all three ships this
morning, the decks of the ships show
ing a good deal of activity.
The trial trip of the Prometheus
yesterday afternoon proved satisfact-
ory to the members of the board of
survey, who were ordered to see that
the engines of the big auxiliary were
in condition to stand the tedious trip
to Bremerton with the disabled man
of-war in tow The engines which
caused so much trouble on the trip
from San Francisco worked much
better than the engineers expected,
the result being that the collier did
not come into port last night but lay
at anchor outside the harbor
On account of the poor condition of
the Cleveland's boilers and engines, it
is doubtful if more than eight knots
an hour will be made between here
and San Francisco, as Captain Rod
man does not intend to take any
chances with his SHIP, and considers
that an eight-knot speed will be all
that is necessary.
The Prometheus and Chattanooga
will keep company with the Cleve-
land as far as the Farallones, when
they will change their course and
proceed directly to the Bremerton
navy yard near Seattle unless orders
are received by wireless to the con-
trary on the way up.

PROBE FAILS TO
ELICIT EVIDENCE

All efforts so far to get any infor
nation about the murder of Chun Ton
from the five Chinese who were
brought up from Kahuku yesterday
have proved fruitless.
Unless they decide to give some
light on the terrible crime, the police
are up against it very badly. Ton was
supposed to have been inpossession of
large amount of opium at the time
of his, death and it is quite possible
that the desire on the part of some of
his friends to steal the precious pop
py juice led to the murder of the un-
fortunate man by person or persons
unknown to the police.
Before in the history of crime the
police have always been able to OBJ
tain some clue that would result in
the running down of the suspected
persons, but in this case they are en-
tirely at sea and will probably re-
main so, unless some of the five de-
eide to confess everything that they
know which seems to be very unlike
ly at present.
