"A MESSAGE"

AS the old year has passed away,
and another year enters, this vision
above Still presses upon me. The
vision cut above this message I shall
explain it as God sent it to me. The
picture drew to illustrate why Gods
power compelled me to press on. The
man on this hill represents the U. 5.
This vision God gave to me two
months before the U. S. went into this
war. I sent this vision to a colored
paper and $4.OO, The Richmond Plan
ct. Richmond, Va. Whether it was
printed or received with love or not
that I never knew, as 1 have not
received up to this date one line OF
writing from Mr.. John Mitchell, edl-

When was in Honolulu, while my
husband was in Des Moines IN train

the whereabouts of the colored paper.

AMENDMENT.

No amendment will be made in the
present city Sunday closing ordnance,
nor will It be repealed. That is the
result of meeting of the board of
mayor and aldermen Wednesday after
noon held for the purpose of consider
ing the matter upon petition signed
by AIS persons asking that the ordi-
nance be repealed or amended so as
to require certain lines of business
now prohibited to be closed only dur-
ing specified hours of the day.
A delegation of citizens represent
ing various churches cf the city and
other individuals appeared before the

amendment of the ordinance. A me-
mortal from the pastors association,
petition from two garages and a
petition from four drug stores that
