Those Pesky Oxen.

FSom the st. Louis Post Dispatch.
In Buchanan, Mich, a young lady
wearing a hobble tripped, fell, and fright
ened a team of oxen into running away.
The oxen broke the glass fronts of three
stores. A constable arrested the girl for
disturbing the peace. The town board
held special meeting and passed an
ordinance prohibiting hobbies and harem
skirts. There is no end to the trouble
that can be caused by sensitive yoke
of oxen.

CURIOUS BITS OF HISTORY
By A. w. MACY.
PUNISHING ANIMALS AS
CRIMINALS.

There were some queer doings
in the Middle Ages. For instance.
criminal laws were sometimes en-
forced against offending animals.
II is a matter of record that in
1866, at Fontenay, near Paris, a
pig was publicly burned for hav-
ing devoured a child. In 1886 a
Judge at Falaise condemned a
SOW to be mutilated in her legs
and head. and then hanged, for
having lacerated and killed a
child. She was executed In. the
public square, dressed in mans
clothing. In 1889 a horse was
tried at Dijon and condemned to
death for having killed a man.
In 1899 bull was condemned to
death at Canroy for killing boy.
In Ireland. in 1888. a cock was
convicted of having laid an egg

General Notes.


WAILUKU, September 23.-The in
FAINT son of Rev. L. B. Kaumeheiwa
died last Sunday morning at o'clock,
and was buried at o'clock in the
afternoon. The little fellow had been
ailing for some time. He was thought
out of serious danger until Saturday
night when his condition suddenly
changed for the worse. Rev. D. w. K.
White of Lahaina and Rev. Mr.. Dodge
conducted the services at the home,
and Rev. D. K Kaaiakamanu of Kipa-
hulu officiated at the grave.
Letters have been received from
Rev. Edward B. Turner pastor of the
Paia Union church. He and his fam
lily had a very pleasant trip on sea
and across the States and are now at
Corning, Ia, where they will spend
a few weeks with Mr.. Turner's par
ents. About the first of October Mr.
Turner will be in New York City doing
some special studying in Biblical
literature. He expects to spend some
months in this work and will return
in the early part of the coming year
to Maui.

Maui Churches.


WAILUKU, September 23.-The
Maui Association of Churches, which
closed it's semi-annual session at the
Kaahumanu church last Tuesday even
ing, was well attended by pastors and
delegates from Maui and Molokai. The
series of addresses upon the general
topic Religion in the Home" were ex-
cellent and were eagerly listened to
by those fortunate enough to hear
them. Rev. w. B. blossoms description
of the World in Boston" was one OF
the best hours of the meetings. He
spent some time telling his hearers
of the great hall in Boston where the
exhibition was held, the procession
of many thousands who opened the
greatest missionary exhibit America
has ever seen, and of the wonderful
pageant in which Hawaii with her
Princess Kapiolani took such an i'm
portant part. 1t is hoped that some
time that portion of the great exhibit
ton may be repeated in Honolulu.
Mr.. Oleson described the presentation
of Kilauea on the stage as very

churches will be held at the Kaluaaha
Church, Molokai.

schools throughout the island opened
their doors yesterday morning and
the tinkle, tinkle of the bells signaliz-

in which, let us hope, much more will
be accomplished than in any previous
year. Parents should awaken to the
fact that much of the success in the
child's studies depends on the interest
taken in his daily work by the parents.
They should find time to visit the
school, to meet the teacher, and to ia
miliarize themselves with school con.
