BUDDHIST SAYS
ONE truth IN
ALL RELIGIONS

The Hawaii Shinpo, one of the
local Japanese daily newspapers. re-
Gently published In its columns a
story based on an interview which 81.
SlIeba, the editor. had with Rev. y,
Imamura. head of the HongWaDji
Mission, IN which the latter set forth
his views on the relationship of Bud
.dhism and Christianity. The trans.
.lation of the article follows;
Il believe that the Christian and
Buddhist workers should come into
d closer contact with each other with
the view that there is but one truth;
the truth which all religions should
strive for in their efforts to elevate
the human race. I further believe
that these so-called religious conflicts,
if there be any, should be done away
with once and for all. If these con-
flicts are done away with then many
ways may be found In which the
Christian and the Buddhist workers,
as well as those of other religions,
can work together and secure cooper
alton from others. =
The doctrines of Buddhism teach
that the believers should no nothing
which might harm or cause to harm
those of other faiths, and that 1t Is
not right for any Buddhist to speak
wrongly of one who Is a believer in
Christianity. The same spirit of love
which Is the fundamental of the Chris
tian religion prevails throughout the
Buddhist faith; therefore, the Bud
dhists and the Christians are net en-
,eInies, but are co-workers for the well
fare of man. :. = s-sss..s1

At BIGGATHER|NGIN KANSASC|TY

I'm Hawaii. This has been reduced to
$4,000 and DR.. Ebersole pleaded tina;
becaaes. OF the impending financial
stress in the islands, It should be in.
creased to $4,000.
The chief Cause for anxiety with
u.s. he said, and the most urgent
reason we bring for giving US a larger
appropriation next year is the finan.
eisI depression which we are just now
facing in Hawaii. The large coltri-
but'cn Ct funds from cur island givers
is not likely to continue. In fact, a
large number already have served no
tice that they win have to discontinue.
g Whatever we may think as to the
mearits Of the new tariff bill just en-
acted by the Democratic Congress,
and am not here TO discuss that ques-
tion, the fact is the Hawaiian islands
will suffer a serious setback when
sugar Is put on the free list.
The large expense of labor, which
must be imported: at cost of thou
sands or dollars each year excessive
freight rates on supplies shipped into
Hawaii because of the ccastwise ship
ping law. which operates greatly TO
our disadvantage and finally. the cost
OF shipping raw sugar to New York
refineries, thousands Of miles away,

compete in open market with Cuba
and other nearby sugar producing
countries. Even the rs per cent re-
duction which goes into effect March

FORMER MAGNATE.
DIES IN POVERTY

st. Louis, June 5.-Chris Won Der Abe,
owner of the old st. Louis champion ball
team Of lSS5-SS. and years ago one of the
best known baseball magnates in the
country. died at his home here late this
afternoon Won Der Abe has been seri-
ously ill for two months. Death was
caused by crrohisis of the liver and
dropsy. He 81 years old, was born
i'm Germany and came to this country in
1870
The eccentric German sprang into fame
in 1881, when he bought a majority of the
stock in the st. Louis Baseball association
for $500. In the following years he made
$oo0,000 off the investment When the st.
Louis club joined the old American as
soeiation Won Der Ahe's Browns became
the famous four time pennant winners of
1SS5-S6-S7-SS. His luck lasted for eight
years, his last winning club being that of
1891. which finished second In the Amer
lean association. ain 1892 he entered the
Il club National league, but his teams
invariably finished last or next to last un-
til 1892 when Sportsmans park was sold
to satisfy the demands of his creditors
The last few years have been poor for
the one time wealthy man. The saloon he
maintained hardly brought in enough to
