FORTY YEARS OF MISSION WORK
REVIEWED IN INTERESTING MANNER
BY ORIGINAL LEADERS IN THE FIELD

lands. and later none was found ready
to CO. For ten years these cherished
plans we're deferred. Mrs. Andrews
characterized this as the decade, Of
waiting.
In the meantime the Society found
doors Of usefulness open to them by
the prayer key. In the first year a
branch society was organized in Hilo,
and the following year one each on
Maui and Kauai. Part of the money
raised was sent to support teacher
in Japan and part to pay salaries Of
teachers at Makawao seminary, Maui.
Very soon Mrs Bingham, the nominal
president of the society, went with
her husband to Apaiang, and became
the recipient of its offerings and
prayers.
In the fourth year the Cleaners
Society was formed among the young
people. Then followed in the order
named, the Hawaiian Ministers Tea
party, the donation of furniture to the
Kohala Girls Boarding school, money
to the Maunaloa school, the organiza-
ton of the Bible Readers work, and so
on along the years Mrs. Snow was
sent out under the expense Of the
Board in 1881, but that lady's falling
health necessitated her return to Ho-
Holulu. In 1883 the great need in
Honolulu seemed to be City Mission
airy. Miss Breeze was appointed. She
met with wonderful success, but her
health failed within the year. The fol
lowing year the Woman's Christian
Temperance Union joined with the
Board in paying Mary Green as City
Missionary. This lady followed this
work up for sixteen years, and during
that time she did lot of excellent
work in the way of founding Bands of
Hope, prison visiting, encouraging Ha-
waiians, and other laudable acts. The
Micronesian missions were also helped
by the Board.
Miss Palmer in Ponape.
In July 1884 Miss Palmer arrived,
and is referred to as "our own mis-
sionary." She went on to Ponape to
work at the first girls school on the
islands. Miss Palmer worked there
for eight years, and remained through
the troublous times that Spain had
possession. She was the only white
woman on the island. She returned
to the mainland in 1891 for we'll
earned rest, and during her absence
the school was broken up. The home
work was crowding in. The Chinese
were receiving aid, and calls to chris
tianize the Portuguese and japanese

who has taken the place of Judge
Wise, in the local district court for
the past few days. Three arrests
were made, E. ]. Lord, DR.. Fred Irwin
and c. c. Kennedy.
Lord entered a plea of guilty, stat
ing that he was at fault and knew it
and thereby lost $500, a fve-dollar
fine and three dollars in costs, but al
though the evidence in the other two
cases was extremely clear, both DR..
Irwin and Kennedy were found not
guilty by Second Judge Smith. The
reason given for this was that they
should be allowed warning. Mr.. Ken
nedy protested that he might blow
his horn so that some people
would hear him and others would not
and that If he should get a loud horn
he would be arrested for making too
much noise. 1t is expected that the
arrests will be kept up until a general
observance of the law providing some
measure of public safety has been
forced and with the return of Judge
Wise, who has been defending a MUIR
derer in Olaa, it is expected that a
different attitude in the cases will be
taken.

Especial Correspondence of The Starr
HILO, Hawaii, June 5.-The news of
the appointment of Robert Forrest,
who is in charge of the Punaluu land
ing for the Pahala plantation, as tax
assessor of the island of Hawaii, which
was announced by wireless, was ex-
pected on this island 1t was under
stood that a number of the strongest
influences which could be brought to
bear, both on this island and in Homo
lulu, had endorsed Forests name and
that his qualifications had been shown
in such a manner that no one else had
much chance to win against him.
The people here are interested to
see how the appointment will work
out when the next assessments are
made. It is definitely stated here that
Mr.. Willfong's resignation did not

Has A Very Tough Job

come anywhere nearly as much from
his inclination to leave the position
as it did from the fact that during
the session of the Legislature atten-
ton was called to the fact that while
a much greater amount of sugar was
raised on this island than on any of
the others, the taxes from this indus
try we're not in proportion. In fact, it
has been stated here and in Honolulu,
again and again, that the taxes on Ha-
wall are far lower than in the other
taxation districts. Forrest will be up
against a hard proposition here, &C
cording to common talk, as the govern
ment will expect him to raise more
money, while if he raises assessments
to any great extent he will run foul OF
the very people who endorsed him for
the position.

THE COTTON MARKET.

NEW YORK. Feb. 24.-The cotton
market opened steady at a decline of
7@11 points. and sold s to 10 points net
lower during the early trading under
scattered liquidation and bear pressure,
inspired by lower cables than expected
and weakness In the stock market.
Selling seemed to be promoted also by
the circulation of notices against March
contracts estimated at about $4,000
bales. but there was a good demand for
that month around 10. 70, and several
houses were said to be taking cotton
up as fast as the notices reached them.
Prices during the middle of the morn
ing showed rallies of 3 or 4 points from
the lowest.
It was reported that while a good deal
of the cotton being taken up on O n
tract is for the account of leading bull
interests considerable of II Is being
taken BY Southern spot people. who
would sort it over and ship VI part Of
1t to I'LL their March engagements. The
apparent demand for the local stock
and bullish Southern spot advices
helped the market during the fore
and prices at one time worked up
to within 8 to 6 points of last nights
Subsequent fiuctuat ions were
irregular. however, and the
market still seemed to be without any
general supports

II CHICAGO MARKET.

CHICAGO, Feb. 24.-Signs that world
shipments would show a smaller total
this week helped rally wheat prices to-
day. Liverpool reported also that the
market there displayed unexpected
strength, owing to a better mi ling in
quiry and because of an improved de-
mand from the continent. 1t was a
fact, too, that Minneapolis stocks had
decreased 275,000 bushels for the week
against an increase of the same
amount a year ago. Moreover, -four
shipments from that city appeared to
be gaining in volume. Opening quota
tions here were ~ higher to a shade
lower. May started at 1878 10 90A, a
rise of A@3s to q sixteenth Off. but re-
acted to SeH.
