Transvaal Gold.

The value of the gold output of the
Transvaal for the year 1911 has been
reckoned at $170.00O.000 This was an
Increase in value over the previous
year OF more than s140,000,000. 1t is
estimated that the gold output of the
Transvaal for the year mentioned con-
stitutes almost, If not quite, 3S per
cent. of the output of the whole world
for the same year. In 1910 the pro-
portion was SO per cent, so 1t will be
seen that the South African gold mines
are steadily improving. The dividend
distributed from the 1911 output reach
ed the princely sum of s37.779,057.

BOARD
HEARS OF BROAD
MISSION WORK

The Woman's Board of Missions of
Central Union Church held the second
meeting of the year at, the Church
parlors yesterday afternoon at half aft
er two O'Clock The meeting was open
ed by the president, Mrs. Theodore
Richards. She was followed by Mis-
EITHER Erickson of the Y. w. G. A.
who read a scriptural, selection. Tie
report of the preceding meeting was
then read by Miss Sheely the record
ing secretary. e..
Miss Agnes Judd read two letters
from miss ionaries who had visited in
Honolulu. The first was from Mrs.
Jenkins of Pomona College California
who is now in Japan, Her letter told
of the interesting experiences she is
having in the east. Mrs. Jenkins is
10 make her home in Toxic. The Sec
ond letter read by Miss Judd was from
Mrs. Charmon who is in Ocean Island.
This letter told of the islands, of the
wonderful surf there and of the pic
turesque beauty. Miss Judd was fol-
lowed by Mrs. L. L. Moore who read
the treasurer's report. =..
One of the interesting features of
ii afternoon was the talk given by
Mrs Mckenzie, the mission worker
among the Chinese. Mrs. Mckenzie
has recently returned from Canada
and San Francisco where she has
spent a ten weeks vacation visiting
among the Chinese. Mrs. Mckenzie
says that there are great many Chi
nese in Canada and that they are all
anxious not only to learn the English
language but are also eager to imbibe
the Chris tan religion. =,
The Chinese work in Vancouver Is
progressing. says Mrs. Mckenzie, al
though she was not able to see much
Of the work in progress for as 1t was
vacation time the schools were dis
organized. In San Francisco Mrs Nc
KenZie found many interesting things
in China Town. The women there are
closely shut in and all are earger to
learn the ways of the more advanced
nations, where they have made their
home.
The Congregational mission in San
Francisco was ideal Miss Green who
is very we'll known in Honolulu is now
at the head of the Congregational
work there The Chinese who are in
the mission live in large buildings and
the conditions existing among them
ere fairly good and steadily impror
ing. Mrs. Mckenzie was also very
much impressed with the Episcopal
mission in San Francisco. At the time
she visited that mission the cooking
class was preparing for picnic. She
said that when she saw the woman
and children so happy in their little
frilled caps and making such dainty
edihles she could not help but wis n
that something on that order mi&it
be introduced in Honolulu. Miss Grant,
who was formerly connected with the
work in this city, is in
charge of the work there. One of the
features in the Chinese
work in the Bay City was the school
for boys conducted by the Presbyter-
ians. These boys were brought over
from China to be educated and are
learning American ways rapidly. A
thing about the Chinese is
that all of them say that education is
helping them and will help their coun-
t'y hut they also firmly believe that re-
ligion will do a great deal towards bet
tering the conditions in China.
Mrs. Mckenzie enjoyed a perfect
