JAPANESE Will
HOLD SERVICES
FOR LATE ruler
Frank E. Scudder Suggests At
tendance on Part OF People
as Courtesy

The Japanese churches of this city
will unite in celebrating the memory
OF the late Emperor of Japan on Fri
day, September 18th, at D. m in the
Nuuanu street church.
In relation to the above, Frank s.
Scudder makes the following sugges-
ton: III :. +.
Our Government has sent Secre-
tary Knox to convey to Japan the
sympathy Of the American people.
Would not this official courtesy be
greatly emphasized by the unofficial
courtesy which the people of Homo
lulu might show by attending the To-
cal memorial services? While the
greater part of such services must
necessarily be unintelligible to most
Americans, there will be at least one
tribute to the late Emperor by the
Rev. o. HI. Gulick, who was for many
years resident of Japan.
1t may be that some who are un-
able to attend might be glad to ex-
press their sympathy by means of a
note addressed in care of Rev. Gu.

Hughes, sustained a loss OF at least
three thousand dollars last week
through the act of some unknown
enemy who cut a hole in the wire
netting of Mr.. Moreland's fox yard,
which permitted three black foxes
aud several red ones to escape.
About two years ago, Mr.. More
land, who followed UP the business
of trapping more or less in connec-
ton with farm work, trapped three
black foxes aud succeeded in taking
them alive. Although black fox
pelts are worth all the way from
$4,000 to $1,000 they were worth
much more than that alive for
breeding purposes.
