It is hoped that the next issue of ThS Fkiknd will contain a full account of the exercises as well as of the building itself. Our brethren there seem to be worthily keeping up their church work abreast of the rapid growth of their town. With the arrival of annexation, no place in these islands is likely to feel the impulse given by the new order of things mote than Hilo, the magnificent coffee lands of whose back country ate sure to attract American Settlers more rapidly than any other locality. On the noble roads and among the beautiful homes that are soon to civilize and adorn that present luxuriant wilderness, not only schools but churches are to spring up for the higher needs ol the new population. Abundant work is before our Christian people. The Diamond Jubilee. It has been the unprecedented priviege of English-speaking men, the world around, to rejoice in sympathy with their great mother country in the attaintheir venerable sovereign of a of her reign longer than that of her monarch at least in European Etiy 51 Number 7 history. On the 20th-of June Victoria character has always been Such as to towards paths of honor and had been Queen lor sixty years, and th«- lead all men of justice, as well as of pure life. rejoicings and acclamation went around And this rare excellence has, as we the world. A day of celebration, the 23d, for this event, was observed in Honolulu, with the utmost cordiality and enthusiasm The government declared it a holiday, and placed a Saluting battery at the service of the British residents, in the absence of any British warship. The two American warships and the Japanese Naniwa, all lit'ed salutes at noon. There was a general turnout to regattaa• and athletic contests and sports. Why do those of us who are not British, so heartily and admiringly rejoice in this unique honor of seniority attained by England's Queen, now become Dean, not only of all living aover eigns, but of all monarchs m modern History ? We all sympathise with her, and tender her most heartfelt and loving greeting, with profoundest honor and reverence. It certainly is not foi any intellectual qualities in this exalted woman that might be called great. Mentally she has never shown brilliance, and might easily be reckoned But she has been common place. soundly and steadfastly good. There has always and consistently shone in her a purity of intention, a justice of action, a calmness and considetateness of deliberation, a moderation of judgment, a complete integrity and righteousness, which have been so undeviating, as to have accumulated through these long decades an ever growing weight of character and exalted repute. She has not sought to exercise personal government, but with the wisest moderation has carefully avoided interfering with or opposing her great ministers. Yet on fit occasion, where public policy was doubtful, her influence has determined the balance, and always in the way most worthy. Without special genius or eminence of knowledge, Victoria's strong and excellent purity of character has reaiatlessly moulded the motives and opinions of her ministers. No minister, however unscrupulous, as were occasionally some of her ablest ministers, coultl comfortably place before his Queen any measure or proposition which would seem dis honorable. Her personal weight of know, been the fruit of a sincere and profound piety tow.nils (rod. Victoria has always been a devout Christian, walking carefully in the feat of God. and seeking His Divine approval iii all the acts of her life. In this steadfast conscientious piety, is the secret of hei wise and pure conduct. It has been the privilege of Victoria to reign over a race of men. who by inheritance and culture, have become the foremost of European nations in moral worth, justice, and social purity, as well as m Valor and capacity to administer and rule tit pendant races and colonies. It has also been her privilege to reign in a century when the principles ol justice, purity, benevol ence, and civil lbcrty have become im- inen.M-ly advanced over previous centuries. And it has been the happiness of England and ol the world that this good and illustrious woman has worthily occupied the throne in such a century and over such a people, (rod has marvellously blessed Victoria, and through her, England and the win Id. All people of English blood praise God for and are proud of this excellent and long lived Queen. Rev. William H. Sallmon. This gentleman is making a ten days sojourn in Honolulu, to sail on July Ist lor Australia fur the purpose of aiding and superintending in the conduct ol twenty-five Student Christian Unions in Australia. Mr. Sallmon is a Vale graduate of'94, and has had chief charge of the Y. M. C. A, now numbering 1,300 students in that University. His chief woik has been in building up the Bible study department of the College Associations. He has been prominent in the inter-collegiate work of the Y. M. C. A. especially in Canada, his native land, touring and speaking also in the principal colleges in the Middle and Kastern States, and taking charge of Bible study work at the Student aumniei schools at Xorthlield and knoxville. Mr. Sallmon held for forty minutes a deeply interested audience it the Central Union Church last Sunday evening, upon the topic of V M. C. A. work and its success. He pointed out that the day is past since the Y. M. C. A. has been suspected of being a rival or other than the servant of the Church of Christ �THE FRIEND. 52 Hawaiian Evangelical Association. This important representative body of the Hawaiian Churches, .opened its annual meeting in Kawaiahao Church on Tuesday, June Ist. It ia composed of all pastors of Hawaiian Churches, and delegates from the island associations, together with ordained ministers and missionaries. Key. L.

Prom committf es of these associations reports were also read of the state of religion in the vari ous parishes. '1 he Work of the yeai seemed to have been characterized by general activity and harmony, without very marked enthusiasm or unusual progress. There had been a Blighl increase in contributions lo the Hawaii an Board. There was still great lack "I exertion to pay to the pastors theii very narrow stipends. Social evils are still active in man)' of the parishes. The Island of Kauai has been especi ally favored through the work ol the Rev. J. M. Lydgate, in personal visit,i tion of the different parishes, and in gathering all the pastors quarter!) foi special Bible study, and conference upon pastoral work. Wednesday morning was occupied with the closing exercises of Kawaiahao Girls' School. Hearing and discussion of statistical reports was continued in the afternoon.

He invited the Association to visit tile huge and flourishing Mills Institute fi u ('hinese youth. Rev Mi. Il.isug.iwa spoke for the M. 1.. workers associated with bun in the M. E. Japanese Mission.

Church parlors, where the wives of pastors and delegates were also enter lamed, and where an animated seiies ol short addresses by representatives of man) nationalities and lines of work enlivened the gathering. This is always to most persons, the most interesting occasion of the anniversary week. The forenoon ol Friday the -ith was spent by the association in listening to thi innual examination of the Theologial students ol the North Pacific Mission Institute. Fifteen students have been in attendance during the year, three of tin in \ oung Chinese who hope to preach to theii countrymen. The class were examined by Key. H. H.

Without this liberal aid, the withdrawal of the former government subsidy would have worked disaster. The two schools for boys, at Lihue and at Hilo, are prospering. Incorporated were reports from the X. I'. M. Institute, from Rev. A. Y. Snares of the Portuguese mission; from Key. (). H. Gulick of the Japanese mission; and from Mr. F. W. Damon of the Chinese mission. The last was of superior interest, showing remarkable growth and progress in the work for the Chinese, especially in education. On Saturday, exercises were held in the church, by the usual convention of the Sabbath Schools of this island, with a very large attendance Three hours having been thus occupied with deep interest, the people were invited to the basement, where an ample Hawaiian least was .spread upon sixteen long tables, one of which was especially arranged and supplied for foreigners. In the afternoon by invitation of Admiral Beardslee, the S. S. convention visited the U. S. S Philadelphia. On Sunday afternoon, the Fvangelical Association observed the Lord's Supper together at Kawaiahao Church, many ( hinese and Japanese pastors and dele gates participating. A final session to finish up business was held on Monday forenoon, June 7th, when the Association adjourned till another year, most of the members returning home early in the week. This meeting ol the H. E. Association has been, on the whole, gratifying and satisfactory. A spirit of devout prayerfulness has been manifest. Harmony has prevailed. The pastors have returned to their fields refreshed and strengthened in spirit by their mutual conference, and the blessing of the Divine presence. Report of Treasurer of Hawaiian Board.

According to usual custom, and in order to keep the Sunday Schools from the demoralizing atmosphere of the horse races, ample provision was made by benevolent friends for picnics. The Central Union S. S. held its outing, as usual, on tha campus of Oahu College, where a large tent covered the refreshment tables, and various games were played on the ample grounds. Nearly a thousand persons, old and young, Were fed. Coffee and iced lemonade were free as water. Bread and butter, ham, tongue,doughnuts, cake, rolls and salads were in profusion. The Christian Church S. S. were similarly entertained on the grounds of Mr. Allan Herbert at Kalihi, where some 400 were present.

Hawaiian Secretary of Legation at Washington, died in that city May 20. He had been seriously ill but a few days, although for some time ailing with kidney trouble. He fainted the week before at a President's reception, and never rallied. Mr. Hastings has served for four years in his office with great acceptance to both governments, having had an early training in the U. S. Consular service. He had married into a leading family in these islands. It will be difficult to find any available man to take his place satisfactorily at this critical juncture.

The news came on the 33d, as an entire surprise, that President McKinley, was about to send to the Senate a treaty of annexation of Hawaii. It had quite ceased to be hoped that the administration would act upon the matter at the present extra session, although known to be in favor of the measure. The government and Minister Sevvail however were aware that such a move was contemplated. It was probably hastened by the aggressive and menacing attitude of Japan towards Hawaii. It was believed that the necessary two thirds vote of the Senate would promptly be given to the Treaty. Should this be done, it is certain of speedy ratification by the Hawaiian Senate, and therefore it is quite probable that the American Flag will be (lying over our public build ings at an early date. We have long expected and advocated this event. No thing in the world is plainer than the impossibility of maintaining Hawaii as an independent state amid the clashiugs of political and commercial strife in the Pacific. Stability of government is indispensable to Hawaii, which also naturally gravitates to America as its shelter and support, while it is necessary to the Union as its strategic outpost and naval nefense.

The antniitl meeting of the Hawaiian Kvangelical Association held in Kaw.n-. ahao Church, occupied live working days, opening on Tuesday, June Ist, and adjourned Monday, June 7th, to meet there again the first Tuesday ol June (the 7th), I8»8. There were present 29 pastors, II lay delegates; Other clergy. men missionaries and associate members, numbering seventeen were in attendance. The first two days were chielly spent in reading the statistical tables of the churches and the report! of the local island associations. Although there has been a slight shrinkage in their contri butions to the Board, there is manifest more harmony and an increase ol inter est in church work. S. W. Kawewtln. chairman of the Kailua Church committee for the repair of its venerable meeting bouse, reported the completion of repairs so long needed on the steeple. Rev. B. M, Han una, pastor of the church at liana, Maui, laid before the Association a request that, a committee of that church be permitted to solicit funds on the different islands for the completion of the repairs on their meeting house, they having already spent several thousand dollarsand being in need of if-joou more. The request was granted with the condition that only $1000 outside aid be asked. Pour subscription papers have been issued, one for each island, and tlie signature of the secretary is on each. It was voted that the Hawaiian Board should take into consideration the matter of securing the right men and providing them with funds for evangelistic work, such as was done with such good results on Kauai two years ago. Wednesday morning the members of the Association were in attendance at the closingexercises of Kawaiahao Girls' School. Wednesday evening all were invited to the Hawaiian Christian Endeavor Convention held at Kawaiahao Church. Thursday morning the Association received the delegates of the different churches and missions, after which the Secretary and Treasurer read their Annual Reports. At 4 p.m. the ladies of the Woman's Hoard of Missions entertained the members of the Associa tion and their families at the annual tea party in the parlors of the Central Union Church. Year by year this event holds its remarkable interest. On this day a vote was passed urging the Hawaiian Hoard to continue its support of ministers with specially limited resources such as may be com mended to its consideration by the local island associations. The Association also voted to ask the native churches to raise $2000 for the foreign mission work this year. Friday morning the Association attended the annual examination ot the students of the N.
