down on the bed with Wilson. | was
too nervous to lay down, and was still

This completed the story of Thorne,
and he again began to study the chief.
the sergeant and the detectives. Chief
Barlow made draft of the confession,
combining it to the direct facts fur
nished by Thorne. He read it to
ThOrne, and then Thorne graVely read
it several times. He nodded his head
and said that il was about right to the
best of his understanding. When the
chief handed him a pen he signed 1t
willingly.
Hayes was later taken before the
chief. He had but slightly changed
his severe expression of determination.
When the chief told him that Thorne
had confessed murder and implicated
him in the plan of the robbery he
seemed surprised. The chief showed
him the confession and the signature
of ThOrne. Then, after a moment of
hesitation he began to unravel the
story of the burglary that resulted in
the killing of Fassell. In practically
every detail it coincided with the con-
fessiOn of ThOrne. Some of his state
ments were merely bare admissions to
questions asked by Chief of Police Bar

were therefore, much honored. Ma
uru has no fetish houses. Sacri-
fees to their gods were offered on
large stones. These gods were in
troduced by the Gilbert Islanders.
The principal god was Tabuarik, the
god of thunder. ~.
The great event of last year on
Nauru was the dedication Of the
rev church. The total cost of this
building amounted to 1928 of which
sum the natives themselves contribu-
ted 1871. When II is understood
that no rain had fallen on this ISL
and for nearly two years, and the
cocoanut harvest was in consequence
almost ruined. 1t speaks we'll for the
spirit of giving which prompted
these simple folk to subscribe so
generously.
The population Of Nauru has
dwindled down to 1850 souls, but OF
these some 92O are adherents of the
mission. The Sunday School which
is In charge of Mrs. Delaporte, has
an enrolment of nearly one hundred
children under IA years of age. Mrs.
Delaporte In addition to her regu-
ar duties looks after the dispen-
sary.
Since its establishment In 1906.
the mission press has turned out
433, S25 printed pages. During the
past year more than 500 copies OF
the new hymn book were printed.
The Psalms. Genesis and Exodus are
ibout ready for the press and. II Is
hoped that the printing Of these will
be begun In a few weeks.
In July last. the Pacific Phosphate
Company's new steamer ocean

had on board Mr.. John T.. Arundel.

was accompanied by Miss whitley
and the Misses Arundel. As the
Ocean Queen" was to make round
trip from Nauru to this city, Mr..
Arundel very kindly offered to take
any goods Honolulu friends might
want to ship to Nauru. Some $500
worth of goods were shipped from
his city. Early In September how
ever, the ocean Queen" struck a
reef at Makatea and seven hours lat
sr went down in 200 fathoms of wa

who has lived and worked In these
Islands, I have felt that I ought to
do missionary work amongst these
people. I was married in Karlsruhe,
Germany, and have helped my hus-
band with his mission work on
Nauru ever since"
The mission of Nauru, which Is
principally supported by the MEM
bers of Central Union church, was
organized November 9, 1899. In
1906, however, the work was taken
over definitely by the American
Board of Commissioners for Foreign
Missions.
The present missionary, Rev. Phi.
A. Delaporte. and his family sailed
from Honolulu on April Z, 1899, on
board the Morning Star. They were
landed on their chosen field nearly
seven months later. The first SER
vice was held on the, following Sab
bath in an old native hut. About
fifty people attended. =
The first native church building
was completed and dedicated July
Ia, 1901. Eleven persons were bap-
tized and the Evangelical Protes-
tant Church" OF Nauru was organ.
lied. In 1902 two mission stations
were started b.. the, Roman Catholic
Church with stan of eight work.
ers.. During 1903 y part of the
Nauru New Testament was publish
ed at Kusaie. In 1906 the Pacific
Phosphate Co. Ltd. began operations
on the island. During 1906 the boys
of the Nauru training school print
ed the entire New Testament on a
press donated by the, Hawaiian Mis-
sion Childrens Society.
In 1908 1t was found necessary
to rebuild the entire mission sta
ton. On March IS. 1909, new
church .Aeating 100 persons was
dedicated.
Nauru is an isolated island of vol
canic origin situated In the Pacific
Ocean west of the Gilbert Islands.
II has a circumference of about II
English miles. A coral reef from
300-450 feet wide eBcircles the ISL
and. In the center OF the island
is large lagoon surrounded with
a layer of phosphate, several feet
thick.
In 1883 the island was put under
German Protection. the natives were
disarmed and an end was made to
strife. The inhabitants OF Nauru
are composed Of GilbeIt, Marshall
and Caroline Islanders who drifted
away from their own groups in ages
gone by. There are twelve tribes
on Nauru. as follows: Eamwit, iru-
wa, deboe. emea, ranibok, emanum,
eano. eamwidara. eoaru. irutsi, iwi.
eamwitumwit.
In the matter OF burial the people
OF this island practice very pecu-
liar custom. Ordinary corpses were
buried inside the huts. A near
relative slept oil the grave. Later
the grave was opened and the skull
and teeth of the deceased were ex.
humed. The teeth were then work.
ed into bracelets and worn by the
relatives. Common people were usu-
ally thrown into caves or taken out
to sea, without any covering. as a
mat might hinder the soul from en-
tering the Spirit Land.
The people Of Nauru believed that
the Spirits have influence over their
actions. The skulls of ancecors
