done. however, in 1894. as after the

people had begun TO gradually drift;
that way. The public buildings also
went one by one. the Office, the shops,
the stores, etc. Therefore, il was
wisely determined that in the interest

the government should own and con

accomplished.
Tribute to Father Damien
But We must not forget Father Da-
mien. He came TO the Molokai settle
ment to remain, May IL, 1873. Good
order in the settlement was Il tenn
porary condition merely. The fathers
determined character and robust body
proved to be of great value Besides
his priestly Offices there was oppor-
tunity for his efforts at every turn.
With hungry zeal for work he threw
himself into it everywhere and really
accomplished many things for the
good of the place.
Ten years later-in 1883-the Fran
ciscan sisters came TO Honolulu from
Syracuse. n. Y, having been engaged
by the Hawaiian government. They
expected coming to the settlement at
once, but the authorities concluded
that conditions there were unsuitable,
that better order must be secured and
some improvements made in build
ings, etc. So the sisters remained at
Kakaako branch hospital, near Homo
lulu, for about six years, certain mum
Der of newly gathered lepers being
retained there. This hospital was
given up NISu TIC SlSISTS CdlIO "

Kalihi was continued. Also Kapio-

cisean sisters
Grave Sisters Come
At the settlement conditions were
indeed rather rough for the sisters in
1883. In 1886, when the writer joined
Father Damien, the same was true,
but matters had greatly improved and
the Improvement was continued.
Finally three sisters came to Kalau- |
papa, Nov. Is, 1888. Bishop Home for
girls and women had been built Two
mere came May 6, 1889 Mr.. r. L. !
Stevenson came by the same boat for !
q visit.
Father Damien died April 10, 1889. |
This death after such life arrested |
the worlds attention. A spontaneous
outburst of applause from everywhere /
at once followed The sixteen years |
of labor on Molokai made record that !
was unique. The world knew very
little about lepers. This was a revela-
ton and was recognized as heroic self
sacrifice
Acknowledged Apostle of Lepers
Father Damien is the acknowledged |
Apostle of the lepers and justly so.
What others may do in the same field
will help to perpetuate his fame and

The annual meeting of the Old Set
tiers of Barnes county Thursday eve
ming was one of the most enjoyable
ever held. There was a big attendance
and to Judge from the enthusiasm OF
those present the evening was one
round of unallOyed pleasure.
The meeting was called to order in
the Armory at $3.50 by President Sim
Mason. After few well-chosen words
of greeting from Mr.. Mason, Secretary
Noes report was presented and &C.
copied. Mr.. Moe was able to present
figures showing the growth and pros
poets Of the association.
Following the secretary's sugges-
ton that the officers be named from
the ranks Of the younger Old Settlers,
the following were chosen to look aft
er the associations affairs for the CON-
ing year: President, T.. Melvin Lee;
vice president, James w. Nelson; Sec
rotary, l. J. Moe; treasurer, A. c..
Thorkelson. That there will be some
thing doing by the association the COM
ing year is evident from the choice of
officers.
Business being thus disposed Of,
Hon. Robt. E. Kee, of Sanborn, an old
soldier as we'll as an Old Settler,
amused and instructed the gathering
by his "reminiscences Of the early days
of Barnes county. His intimate
knowledge Of affairs, political and 9TH
erwise, makes him always an interest
ing speaker, but on this occasion he
outdid himself.

Litchvine Democrats
Had Big Election Feed

Litchville Bulletin: The most elaID-
crate political banquet ever staged in
Litchville was given Tuesday evening
by our local democrats at the Imman-
uel hall. The banquet was held fn
celebration of Wilson's reelection to
the presidency.
The room was decorated with a
prOfusion of American flags, bunting
and several large pictures Of Mr.. WI.
son. Beginning at $50 a bounteouE
dinner was served to about 100 peo-
pie. About dozen of the most prons-
inent republicans Of the village, with
their wives, were also invited.
c. j. Hansen acted as master Of
ceremonies and Hon. w. C. Mcdowell
Of Marion, was the speaker of the eve
ming. He made an eloquent and en-
tertaining address of half an hour's
duration, touching lightly on the IT,
sues Of the campaign, as seen from a
democratic point Of view. Talks by
local men were also on the program,
but had to be dispensed with, owing
to the lateness Of the hour.
Miss Martha Hanson did the cater.
ing in highly efficient and satisfaS.
tory manner.

Musical Clarks Feature
Of Old Settlers Meeting

The big feature was the appearance
of the Musical Clarks. Everybody
known that the Clarks are talen6e6
but not everybody knows how varied
their talents are. They appeared first
as a brass band, then as mandolin
quintet, and finally charmed the audi
ence on their Sweet potatoes" or
ocarinas. TO cap the climax H. W.,
himself an Old Settler, did buck ana
, wing dance that would put many 4 pre~
fessional dancer to shame. The NUM-
cal Clarks are composed of Mr.. ana
Mrs. Clark, Mrs. Marguerite Van
Praag, Louis, Howard and Bryan
Clark.
Always favorite, Mrs. w. T. CxaE.
we'll gained new laurels in her singing
of Little Old Sod Shanty ON the
Claim" After singing it beaut fully
herself she led the audience in gDias
over it several times, until we venture
that today it is the popular song in tho
county.
Messrs. Hunt and Buckwalter favor
ed the gathering with finely rendered
duet, after which Hearings orchestra,
in the overture, Sounds fYo1n the
Sunny South" gave the signal tNr
dancing to begin. For several huurE
old as we'll as young joined in the mer-
riment. everything conspiring to make
the event most pleasant.
Taking everything into considers
ton it was the best meeting the Old
Settlers have ever had. We hope It 10
