LATTER DAY SAINTS
OBSERVE ANNIVERSARY

In celebration of its eighty-third
anniversary, the church of Jesus
Christ of Later Day Saints held spe-
oial services yesterday, the occasion
being observed by the two local
branches of that denomination
The church was first founded by
Joseph Smith and five of his follow
ers at Fayette, New York, on April 6,
1880. In its laws the church embodied
temperance, social purity, obedience,
civil law and spiritual development.
Following the death of Joseph Smith,
who was killed by a mob at Carthage
in 1874, disruption commenced in the
church and various leaders arose
Brigham Young, one of the strongest
CT these, gathered band Of followers
and emigrated to Utah. The church
then took the name of the Reorganized
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day
Saints. Besides being the eighty.
third anniversary of the founding OF
the church yesterday was also the
fifty-third anniversary of the leader
ship of Joseph Smith of Missouri, who
visited Honolulu in 1907 and while
here dedicated the church on King
street near Thomas square. Joseph
f. Smith of Utah visited Honolulu
many times, coming here for the first
time as a missionary. Both the Utah
Mormons and the Reorganized Church
are largely represented in the islands

BOARD To WINFIELD.
Plans for Erection of New Administra-
ton Building.

Members of the board of control will
leave tonight for Winfield, where they
will meet Thursday with Governor
Hodges and discuss plans for the i'm
mediate erection of a new administra-
ton building at the state hospital. This
building was destroyed by fire nearly a
year ago and since that time the hos
pital has been overcrOwded.
During the last session of the legisla-
ture an appropriation of $55,O00 was
made for the erection of a new admin
istration building. The members of
the board of control VIII meet Govern
or Hodges in Winfield tomorrow and
discuss the needs of the institution
and plans for the new building.
1.-The Winfield institution is already
overcrowded," said Secretary J. w.
Howe today. "At present there are 40
or so more inmates of the institution
than should be cared for under ordi-
nary circumstances. Then, too, there
are applica tions pending for the admis-
sion of about 125 more persons: None
of these new cases can be cared for
until the new administration building
is cOmpleted''
