ARMY USING
ISLAND HORSES
Forty From the Parker Ranch
Brought Here for Fifth
Cavalry.

Forty horses reared on the Parker
ranch, Island of Hawaii, arrived here
yesterday on the steamer Likelike from
Kawaihae and the majority of them
will be sent out to Schofield Barracks,
Leilehua, and assigned to various troops
Of the Fifth Cavalry.
This is the first large batch of Island
bred horses that has been purchased by
the war department for the cavalry
arm of the service. When the Fifth
Cavalry arrived here about a year ago
it was stated by one of the ranking
officers that the government would prob
ably give authority for the purchase.
of Island-bred horses to fill up vacan-
cies. Last year army officers went over
to Hawaii and looked over the horses
on various ranches and gave a favor
able report on the mounts.
Captain Forsythe and Lieutenant
Morrison of the Fifth Cavalry, accom-
panied by Doctor Edwards, veterinarian
of the Fifth, acting as commission,
have been on Hawaii for some time
selecting mounts, and the result of their
choice arrived yesterday. Captain For
sythe has stated that there will be no
tronble in obtaining horses from the
Island of Hawaii to fill the require
ments of the service.

have torn away all the rigging and
the yards would have collapsed upon

The captain and crew realized this.
for in the dead of night the forward

for launching into the sea. In the

the damage to the foot of the mast.
the ship would have foundered in O
few minutes after the mast had torn a
hole through the bottom of the ship.
Captain Trip, assistant harbormas-
ter, and other waterfronters are in
elined to the belief that possibly a
similar accident befell the Arthur Sew

and that the mast, plunging through
he hull, sent her 10 the bottom. Since
the day OF her disappearance not a sign
of her has appeared on any coast as far
as known, No ONE, apparently, sur
yived the disaster. The Arthur SewalI

Russian Paper Publishes ALLEGED
Text of Proposed Chinese
Agreement.
AIMED AT THE JAPANESE
Should Any Power Attack China,
America Would Go to
the Rescue.

ST. PETERSBURG, March 2s.-
What purports to be the text of a
proposed treaty between the United
States and China was published yester.
day in the Rech, leading paper of
this city and is attracting a great
amount of attention from the govern
ment officials and others. The text
shows that the United States is willing
to assume defensive alliance with
China and is taken to confirm the
many rumors of late in diplomatic cir.
cles to the effect that America stood
ready to back China against Japan and
Russia.
The treaty announces that America
stands for the principle of the open
door, without allowing any nation to
impose commercial treaty obligations
upon China not shared in equally by
all the nations of the world. 1t affirms
the confidence of the American gov
eminent in the power of the Chinese
government to regulate its internal af.
fairs and pledges the army and navy
forces of the United States to assist
China in the event of her fleet being
attacked by the feet of any other
power.
The Rech report has been sent
throughout the world and is said to be
receiving considerable attention in all
the capitals of Europe.

EASTER OFFERINGS
NEARLY $4,000
A Gift Of $4,000 for Foreign
Missions Was Announced
Yesterday.

"It would be hard to find happier
minister within the confines of our
great country this resurrection morning
than your minister said Pastor Scud-
der in commencing his special Easter
announcement yesterday morning. Then
ne went on to tell how the trustees
had just completed the purchase of the
most centrally located lot in College
Hills, containing one and half acres
of land, as site for Central Union
Church's extension in that section of
town. He followed this by adding that
one of the families of the church had
decided to help make the Easter offer
ing to the American Board worthy of
the grand work accomplished through
the missionaries sent to Hawaii by that
historic organization in this its centen-
NAL year.
The members Of this family present
ed as their share of the collection a
contribution of $4,000 to the trustees
of the church, the income to be devoted
every year to extending the work of
foreign missions under the auspices of
the American Board. The donors we're
willing to have this annual donation 90
through the channel of Central Union
Church so as to include the needy fields
aided in the foreign parish of the
church and to rally in its support the.
prayer and sympathy of its members.
The church was crowded to the doors
at morning worship where this an
nouncement was made.
After the sermon the annual Offering
for the American Board was taken and
amounted to $4366.50, by many times
the largest collection for foreign mis-
sions ever made by the church. More
than 500 separate donors joined in this
centennial contribution.

NO MORE FLOWERS
At commandments
School Trustees Put Ban on
Offerings TO High School
Graduates.

That no more flowers or other gifts
are TO be made TO the graduates oil
the Newport News High school at the
commandments of the institution is
the decree of the board of school trus-
tees. This matter was brought up at
a recent meeting OF the board and
the trustees decided that IL would be
best not to allow any of the graduates
TO receive gifts or flowers at the COM
mencement because of the fact that
some OF the graduates receive more
flowers than others and this neces-
sarily causes some embarrassment
The announcement that the board
has nut the ban on flowers VIII come
as a disappointment 10 some o! TINS
years graduates and their friends In
previous commandments the presen-
tation of the flowers has been a feat
ure OF the program and the flowers
banked around the footiights OF the
stage have lent to the attraetiveness
of the scene
The question of whether or not the
plan of having two comnencements
each session shall be contin-
ued is to be taken up at the
regular meeting OF the board next
month. Some of the trustees are in
favor of having only one commence
ment each year for the classes that
graduates in February and in June
instead OF having two commence
ments-one for each class. II Is prob
able that the advocates OF the one
commencement plan will win out, but
IL such is the case the new plan will
not be put into operation until next
sesS ion.
