Engli sh Pleased With Sue
cess of Air Raid---Russian
Retreat in Galicia to Avoid
| Being Cut Off.

London, Dec. 2S-The battle lines in
the east and west have undergone only
infinitesimal changes during the past
day. French and German reports
agree that the Germans have captured
section of the trenches near Holle-
Deke, in South Ypres. The French as
sert that the Germans gave UP their
trenches on the first line to the extent
of about 900 yards in the Lens region
further east, while unsuccessful DEM
onstrat tions were made from both sides
on various points along the extended
lines. Reports of the number wounded
both armies are sending back from the
lines in Belgium seem to show that the
fighting on Christmas day in that coun-
try was the fiercest of the month.
According to Russian reports, Ger
man attempts to capture Warsaw have
failed, while Berlin says there is gen,
eral confidence that the Austro-Hun-

great front.
English papers are enthusiastic over
the raid by their cruisers and sea-
planes made on Cuxhaven. They de-
cline to accept without reservation the
German statement that ships at CCux-
haven and gas works were hit by the
bombs without damage and consider
this improbable. The only damage to
the British expedition was the loss of
several hydroplanes, costing $45.000.
Commander Hewlett was the only per-
son killed.
The investment by the Russians of
the Austrian fortress at Cracow again
has been raised, Petrograd dispatch
says. Following the discovery that an
attempt was being made by the Aus
trians to divide the Russian forces in
Galicia, the Russians have retreated
eastward for distance of so miles.
1t is stated that wild birds are more
plentiful this winter than for years.

Mayville youths, John Coleman, Peter
Strom, Lawrence Larson and Carl
Nordtvedt, who were arrested for
breaking in the depot at Mayville and

The hotels of the city all celebrated
Christmas in festive style and very
unique and elaborate programs were
gotten out for the occasion. We are
in receipt of one of those from the
Kindred Hotel and are pleased to read
of the goodly array of good things to
eat which were to be had for Christ

was a thing of beauty and must surely
have delighted the eyes of the guests
of this hospitable place on Christmas

Strong Note Sent to London
That Can Leave No Doubt
AS To What Is Expected
of Johnny Bull.

Washington, Dec. %. - The United
States government today dispatched a
long note to Great Britain insisting up
on an early Improvement in the treat
ment of American commerce by the
British fleet. This note gave warning
that much feeling has been aroused in
this country, and that public criticism
is general over the unwarranted inter-
ference with legitimate foreign trade
of the United States.
The document, constituting the
strongest representation this subject
made by the United States to any of
the beligerents since the outbreak Of
the war, was cabled to Ambassador
Page to be formally presented to Sir
Edward Gray, the British foreign Sec
retary. It's preparation was begun a
month ago, as detailed point of view
of the United States in numerous spe
cific cases of seizure and detentions OF
cargoes, has been set forth in a series
of emphatic protests, most of which
have gone unheeded.

HIS CREDENTIALS

A fellow was in town this morning
claiming to be on a hike from a point
in the west to Chicago on a wager of
$4,000. He also claimed that $1,000 of
this amount was to go to the Red
Cross in case he won. The investiga-
ton made by this Office failed to dis
close that the fellow had made any
deposit, in fact, he refused to discuss
the matter of where the funds were
deposited at all. The only conclusion
that could be reached is that there are
no such funds and so the above facts
are given as received.

Mr.. Peters spoke at the entire series

He proved so popular among the men
attending the meetings that the com

plan of having different men speak
and asked Mr.. Peters to continue. The
tact that the attendance held up dur

butte to Mr.. Peters ability to interest
men. Large audiences usually go to
hear visiting speakers, but it is sell
dom that a local speaker can attract
men for such a long period.
So anxious was the committee in

Peters for the meeting tomorrow

Vaughan MacCaughey, Now
on Mainland. Attends Con-
Vention and Cites Results

Vaughan MacCaughey, superintend.
ent CT the Bible school OF Central Tn
ion church. now visiting on the main
land for the summer. has written an
interesting letter TO the members OF
the church in which he tells not only
something of the work of the great
Sunday school convention now being
held in Chicago. but of new expert.
ences gained along many lines OF re.
ligious work.
Newspaper reports sent by Mr.. Mac
Caughey indicate that participation in
the fight for national prohibition. pu-
rity and aggressive reforms affecting
citizenship is to occupy the attention
of the organized Sunday schools dur
ing the next three years as never be-
fore. His letter follows:
Greeting and aloha from Chicago
to Honolulu! II has been my good
fortune TO arrive in Chicago in time
to attend some of the meetings OF the
great Sunday school convention here.
There are between four and five thou
sand delegates in the city. The meet
ings are attracting much attention, be-
cause of their progressive nature, and
because they inaugurate a new era in
Sunday school work.
ut has been a great pleasure to me
to discover that many of the policies
and ideals that are being recommend
ed and urged at these convention
meetings. are already in operation in
Central Union Bible school work.
Il learned from the registrar that
Rev. Fl. p. Judd is also attending the
convention, and made several efforts
to see him, but like myself in this
busy city, he's always out One of
the most inspiring addresses OF the
convention was given this morning
by that virile christian, Fred B. Smith,
now well-known TO Honolulu. He
spoke for men, and for red-blooded
Sunday school.
The convention Is working on fun
damental problems In very thorough
going way, and is making real pro-
gress mot merely inspirationai en-
thusiasm There is a mighty spirit
of prayer in the work onsacration
and deep spiritual purpose-and from
the breeding win come forth great la
borsI for the Master
All over the country, from Califor-
MIA to the east, came into daily
contact with a new moral and reli-
gious awakening of the people-the
whole people-an awakening that
manifests itself in a thousand ways,
but is always of the Master and to-
ward the light And IL seems as
though the simplest utterances OF the
Lowly Nazarene are becoming surely
the heart-words of the nation.
May the summer be as glad on
the kiames of Honolulu as 1t Is on
the shimmering waves of Lake Michi-
gan. and may the sunlight of the King
dom come daily into our lives

which make up the daily round at

of required language work in Chinese
finished, also the study OF the gospels
of Mark and Luke and lessons in Ma

He has ALREADY given five lectures in

porte's health has not been at all good

the 10 books Of the Old Testament

The second meeting of the social
work committee of the Y. M. c. A.
was held at the association building
and the reports read. The figures are
self-explanatory and speak for them
selves. The committee has shown
much vigor in the new work and has
well pushed its plans for meeting the
newcomer and making him at home
in the Paradise of the Pacific One
of the significant things that the new
committee diseHsseA&Swas- the pro-
posed articles for the coast papers
and thoso of Australia and Canada.
This article will tell of the acco5lmo-
dations of the Honolulu Association
and of tho steps that it has taken so
far to make the new conner at home
and help him to get off of the steam
er that brings him here with the
right foot first" HI T.. ~. - 49,.
The boarding house register is one
of the finest things that the new
committee has to offer to the new
man. Through its agency, which is
of course, at, the mans disposal free
of charge. he is assured good, clean
place to room and immunity from I'M
scrupulous boarding house keepers.
Men of the U. s. S. Milwaukee took
advantage of it to the extent of 49,,
and got good, reasonable place to
sleep and clean one. Many of the
houses that were formerly on the list
of the association were found to be
altogether unfit places for a young
man to room and after investiga-
tion were not further recommended.
On the other hand many boarding
house keepers are very grateful for
the service that the association is
rendering them by sending them the
new Corners. Probably no other Y.
M. c. A. has such systematic regis
ter of its recommendations in this
line. 1t includes all of the informa-
tion that newcomer asks upon ar
rival, collected after a long series of
such questions asked at the office. 1t
also has photograph of the build
ing and as much of the grounds as is
possible to include. -. .=

work of the committee aside from the
ordinary details that are of little in
