Subscribers of The Friend are respectfully requested to send to the manager their P. < ). as well as street number to facilitate its delivery. We shall be glad also if any subscriber who does not receive his copy promptly will notify US tn that effect. The Friend suggests that some better institution might try the expedient of the saloons and offer a free stand like the one. corner Bethel and Hotel streets, to be used for all political parties. A crowd around one's place of business should be worth considerable: the insidious character of the saloon's venture is perfectly apparent. It is but fair to the police of our Territo state their side of the failure to convict illicit sellers of liquor. They claim that many' carefully prepared cases have resulted merely in being nolle prossctl on account either of the peculiar law of evidence, or else because of arbitrary rules of court. It appears, they say. that Circuit Courts have refused to accept evidence obtained through spies, and one tory conceive ofevidence against liquor sellers obtained in any other way. It looks as though the law, or rules of particular courts, make conviction impossible. cannot The special edition of The Friend on the occasion of its fust birthday, and in honor of the work of the American Board in these Islands, is an assured thing. The American Board have promised the editors of THE FRIEND their hearty support and their wish to send a large number "I the copies to their constituents.

In the face of the overwhelming logic of the above, we state it as our belief that Theodore Roosevelt is no trimmer, and we are absolutely positive that "the most useful citizen in New York, Jacob A. Riis," doesn't know the first principle of trimming. Perhaps trimming is too firmly intrenched in the public mind as a hit of political wisdom to attack, but we venture this suggestion as at least a danger, viz: that the trimmer is as likely to undershoot the mark as the reformer is to overshoot it. More specifically, one can have faith enough in the people to believe them capable of appreciating and electing the best candidates possible: or so underrate the people as to believe them incapahle of electing anyone but "heelers." Tt looks as though a "reformer" might stand comparison with a "trimmer." REV. WILLIAM MORRIS KINCATD Rev. William Morris Kincaid, pastor of Central Union Church, Honolulu, was born in Utica, New York. His father was George Kincaid, a Scotsman from Inverness; his mother a French Hugcnot. This combination of Scotch tenacity of purpose and incisivcness of thought with French delicacy of feeling and quickness of intuition was a priceless inheritance. His boyhood was passed in Utica, where he prepared for college in the public schools of the city. After four years collegiate training at Williams College under that great educator, Mark Hopkins, he graduated with honors in '72. His theological course he obtained at the Baptist Seminary in Rochester, N. Y.. Mr. Kincaid's first pastorate was at Cortland, N. Y. from 1875-78. He then ministered to the church at Roundout, N. V., until 1881. when he accepted a call to the First Baptist Church of San Francisco, Cal. Here he labored until 1800. Tn that year he accepted a call to the pastorate of the Andrew Presbyterian Church of Minneapolis, where be remained until coming to Honolulu. In 1898 he accepted the call of the Central Union Church and arriving in the city in September, was installed as most effective, the membership having nearly doubled during the four years of his pastorate, and the work of the church having developed along many lines. I lis preaching is earnest and thoughtful, strong and spiritual. By his eloquent sermons and by his kindly sympathy he has endeared himself to the hearts of the people. /. P. P.. VOLCANIC ACTIVITIES. The gigantic and disastrous eruptions of volcanoes in Martinique and St. Vincent in the Lesser Antilles, continue to create the most serious apprehensions of not improbable greater explosions to follow their repeated activity. Here in Honolulu, we are vividly reminded of those terrific explosions by the brilliant skyglows at daybreak and dusk, which proceed from the minute dust which they have sent far aloft into the upper currents of the atmosphere. Our group is undoubtedly as safe as any other country from volcanic eruptions, with the exception of the southern part of the island of Hawaii, where two active volcanoes conduct frequent displays, usually of a very harmless character. No explosive eruptions have occurred there for over a century. The very tame volcano of Kilattea, which is 200 miles from Honolulu, has recently resumed a very quiet sort of activity, after several years of quiescence. The lake of lava is slowly welling ui> into the bottom of the inner crater of TTaleaniau man. Tt promises to renew the magnificent spectacles enjoyed by visitors during so many past years. The fine hotel on the brink of the great crater is likely now to become a place of crowded resort. S. P.. n. HAWAIIAN STUDENTS ON THE MAINLAND. Dave we Americanism in Hawaii? This question has recently heen raised in this community. Some say it is here: others deplore its absence. With this question in mind it is of interest to note how many of our young people are having the opportunity of continuing their studies on the mainland and especially in the eastern States. Surely they will not he without influence upon this community upon their return. The following list comprises only those in the East and is not considered complete: At Harvard University, Charles A.

Caylord Wilcox has just returned to Baton Rouge. Louisiana, to complete his studies in the chemistry of soils and sugars. At Miss Porter's School at Fanningttm. Conn., there will be three girls this year, Dorothy Hartwell, Lottie Baldwin and Sophie Jtuld, the last in her second year. At Dana Hall in Wcllcslcy, Mass., is another trio, Nora Sturgeon, Mina Ahrens and one of the Richardson girls, while at Smith College in Northampton, Mass., Edith Bond begins her junior and Charlotte Dodge, her freshman year. Of the doctors, Dr. W. D. Baldwin is continuing bis studies in one of the Baltimore hospitals, and Dr. A. M. Atherton is at Saranac, N. V., recuperating from sickness. Roth of these took their degrees at Johns Hopkins and have given careful preparation to medicine, while Dr. T. R.

At the instance of a friend, the present writer has given some special attention to the religious and political attitude of the noted Russian, Count Lyof N. Tolstoi, as contained in his latest manifesto in a small volume entitled "What is Religion." Tolstoi is manifestly sincere in his opinions, and intensely in earnest. I hit both as to religion anil politics, he evinces an utterly ill-balanced mind, and an incapacity for finding a middle path between extremes. This is shown most clearly in respect to politics, which occupy a large part of the volume. Ile is profoundly detcstful of the abuses of government which prevail in Russia, hut instead of pointing out and urging the needed reforms, he goes to the extreme of opposing all forcible authority over men. He denounces with utmost passion all use of force in controlling the evil dispositions of men, with all use of police or military. All use of force is contrary to the law of Love and Brotherhood as enjoined by Jesus, and militarism is organized murder. He fails to allow for the necessary limitations to every precept, or to see that society can exist only hy the exercise of law and ordered control, to he maintained by force. His only remedy for the abuses of tyranny is the entire abolition of Government. Such is Tolstoi's absence of discriminating judgment. He is an absolute crank, devoid of sound guidance of thought. Equally erratic is Tolstoi on the subject of Religion. He has strong religious feeling, being by no means atheistic or impious. But having heen all his life wonted to the religious abuses of the powerful Orthodox Greek Church, and having renounced that erroneous and usurped authority, he has with it renounced all Divine Revelation, and all authority of the Holy Scriptures. He retains much reverence for the teaching of the man Jesus, as he chooses to select it out of the recorded words in the Gospel, but rejects all Divine authority thereof. He denounces with violence as false and absurd the Christianity of the Apostles and especially of Paul, equally with the corruptions and priestcraft of later centuries. Of what he retains of reverence for the moral teachings of the merely man Jesus, he reduces to two elements, the Brotherhool of Man, and the sacred duty of doing to others as you would have them do to you. All else of Christianity is false and pernicious accretion. There are no Miracles. There is no Divine Revelation. Jesus was neither born of a virgin nor rose from the dead, nor was more divine than any other man. There is no Holy Spirit. The Supreme Deity is something dim and remote from thought. Prayer is allowed under narrow limitations, exclud- ing all supplication for mercies, hut admitting a species of communion with God as the infinite fountain of being and law. Thus is this great and sincere soul adrift in mazes of error. One prays that this aged martyr to his beliefs may in the hereafter emerge into a blessed light of the Truth of the Son of God, and into the Kingdom of the Redeemer which is to S. E. B. endure forever. EVOLUTION BY NATURAL SELECTION DISPROVED. All persons acquainted with Science believe that all living beings came into existence by descent from earlier and simpler forms. Rut this does not necessarily mean that, as Darwin and Spencer held, the process of development was the slow one of gradual changes by merely natural process, and the "survival of the fittest." in the ContemporJames B. Johnston impugns that vigorously ary Review theory. He appears to produce the most positive and cumulative evidence from the fossil remains unearthed from the ancient rocks, that evolution came by great leaps and sudden bounds. During the halfcentury since Darwin wrote, the "Testimony of the Rocks" has enormously accumulated. It brings overwhelming proof of the great and sudden development of new organs and new families. Evidence is totally wanting of the numerous intermediate links attending gradual change hy natural selection. The new tribes and new organs appear at their very beginning in great completeness and perfection. There were no intermediate stages of evolution whatever. For example, the great order of the Vertebrates appears to have arisen suddenly and in great perfection. The very earliest organ of vision found was a very perfect and complex eye. The earliest bird, successor to pterodactyls in the samestrata, had perfect feathers, and could fly as well as birds now. When Darwin wrote, the rocks bad been but slightly explored, and the gaps in the evidence were immense. He could plausibly assume that the intermediate links in his fancied gradual evolution lay overlooked in the unexplored strata. But in the lapse of fifty years those gaps in the exploration have been sufficiently searched to prove that his theory was wholly untenable. The results of this genuinely scientific test of Darwin and Spencer's a priori theorizing are of the utmost importance. With these falls to the ground a largepart of Herbert Spencer's revolutionizing conclusions. Most of his naturalistic and agnostic theorizing loses its strongest support It breaks down the current opposition to teleological reasoning or Evi-j deuces of Design in Nature, for all that depends upon the validity of the doctrine that all living forms with their marvellous and intricate adaptation to their environment were evolved solely by gradual natural processes, and no Designer bad any hand in so fitting them. Now the Rocks prove that their evolution was sudden and not gradual. This writer, Johnston, writes with a quiet confidence and an evidently wide reach of geological and palaeontological facts which give great plausibility to his assertions. We shall wait to see what rehuttal is made of them. Such refuting will of course be attempted. The Christian's fullest faith in the Personal God and Father is, however, built upon inward spiritual experience, and not upon the disputed reasonings of Physical Science or of Philosophy. S. E. B. THE KAONITES OF KONA, HAWAII A Curious Hit of Hawaiian History John Kaona, the leader of the sect called Kaonites, came to Kona, Hawaii, from Honolulu when he had the reputation of being a kahuna, and a record not altogether reputable, some time during the year 1867. He first appeared there at one Thursday afternoon prayer meeting in the native stone church on the hill, called the Popopiia Church. Rev. J. D. Paris was conducting the services, and Kaona entered carrying a large number of Hawaiian Bibles, which he asked the privilege of storing in the church. As there seined to be no objection, he was allowed to place them there for safe keqiing. He soon began to distribute these Bibles among the people, ostensibly to help in the Christian work of the district, and thus secured an influence and a hearing, for "a man's gift maketh room for him." It was two or three months before the heresy which Kaona had come to promote became apparent, when he had secured a hearing and a following from a large number of the native Christians of the district. He claimed to be an inspired leader like Moses; that he had special revelations from heaven. He denied some of the teachings of the Bible, but the particulars of his doctrine have not been preserved. He seems to have modeled them somewhat after the tenets of the Millerites, who flourished in the United States during the early forties. He claimed that it had been revealed to him that the world was soon coming to an end, and that he was commissioned to withdraw from the churches a people who should be specially prepared to welcome the Lord when He �THE FRIEND 6 should appear. Recalling the "ascension robes" of the Millcritca, they all dressed in white, men, women and children, and each carried a white, hag containing a Bible. They inarched much in processions chanting psalms, held a meeting every evening and lived in tents and booths in community style, for a while at least. They claimed from Mr. Paris the use of the l.anakila church in North Kona for their meetings, as they had assisted in building it. Though this was true, Mr. Parts did not feel that it would he righl to seem to fay ir thcni to that extent, ami refused. They then withdrew entirely from the native churches of the district, several hundred of them, who were thereafter known as Kaniiitts. Kaona had meantime secured to himself a large number of (lie homes ami kulcanas of the natives, giving them in return a written promise to care for them as long as they should live, "A like pu inc. ka niea l.iki," "the best of my ability" was the ambigll tuts term lie used m promising them his care in exchange fur their property. After they had withdrawn from the churches ani given Up their homes to a larg. t\ tent. Kaona found ii was necessary to havi some place where he could Collecl the people antl where they could culti vate the land for food. So he applied to the old chief Kanaina. father of Lunalilo, for the lease of a large tract of unoccupied land in S. Kona called Honua-ino, a mile or so below the road, extending tt the sea. Kanaina refused to give them a formal lease, but said in writing thai they could occupy the land as long as they wished without rent, ami assured tliein that they would never he disturbed SBV ing that his word was good is Ins bond. They accordingly took possession, built some houses and a temporary church, over which floated a tlag inscribed "Jehovah our Planner.'' ami began the erection of a large stone church, the walls of which four or live feet high were still standing a few years ago—antl may he yet. They started schools, cultivated the lands near the bead) where they could obtain water, and seemed to promise to become a thriving and harmless community. Bat they were nut long allowed to remain thus, for a neighbor who owned much land mauka <>f the settlement applied for and obtained from Kanaina a lease of this, same land, Honua-ino, ami at once gave notice to Kamia anil his I'ollowers to leave the place. This they naturally refused to do, claiming that though they hail no lease, they hail Kanaina's written assurance that they should not he of the Kaonitcs. Both Rev. Mr. Paris and Mr. Grccnwdl, who lived in the district, warned Mr. Neville that the people in Honua-ino were in a slate of great excitement and that he ought to use the greatest wisdom or a riot would occur, and his own life might be in danger. Hut he thought he could man age il, and Oct. i<), 1868, securing some native policemen, he l'tiile down to I lo nua-iiio lo his death. When the people refused to leave their homes ami church and cultivated lands, at his demand, he foolishly fired a pistol into the air to inmint timidate them. This was enough to enrage the already excited natives, antl they began to use freely the only weapons they hail at hand, stones. A stone Struck Mr. Neville ami knocked him off his horse, when he was speedily stoned to death. Moses Barritt, a half-white in Neville's company, was chased by the natives ami barely escaped with his life, while a. native, Kaniai, was lassoed antl dragged to death by the infuriated Kaonitcs, who were described as acting like wild ani- mals. The rest of the invaders were obliged to return without having accomplished anything, and the greatest alarm spread throughout X ma. It was reported that the Kaonitcs were about lo burn the houses anil murder every white man in ihe district. Patrols were established, and call for help was at once sent to Honolulu. Messengers were dispatched to Sheriff Coney at Hilo and Deputy Sheriff Chillingworth at Kawaihac ami others who came to the scene of trouble as soon as possible. They held a meeting with ihe residents of Kona, and securing other officers and residents of the place, went down to Honua-ino, The natives were told that any man who threw a stone or showed any insubordination would be shot at once. They held a long conference with Kaona, who showed them his letters from Kanaina. Many fell that if they had not made themselves outlaws by the murder of Mr- Neville, they might have heen held to have sonic claim to the land. While they were still parleying, the old steamer Kilauca came in sight around the point of Kailua. and when the Kaonaitcs saw that all hope of resistance was over, they yielded and were taken prisoners. Some three hundred, men, women and children, were marched up the hill to the residence of Mr. Todd in S. Kona, where they were kept in the yard all night in the rain, ami ihe next morning were put on hoard the Kilauca ami brought to Honolulu. Here they were tried antl a woman named Kaolama turned slate's evidence disturbed. man who held the lease then ap- and told what Kaona had ordered, and lo Mr. Neville, the deputy sheriff who killed Neville. Five of the conspirdistrict, for assistance in the eject- ators, including Kaona, were imprisoned. ■ After serving his term in prison Kaona returned to Kona with some of his followers, when he again secured some of the lands which had formerly been given him. But he was never able to reorganize his scattered ranks, and after a few years lie died in Kona. A few of the people returned to the church, but many remained in Honolulu, and thus the sect of the Kaonitcs became extinct. Mary S. Whitney. KAENOMKEKELA.

W. D. WESTERVELT The action of Mrs. Roosevelt in refusing to speak to. or see, the Grand Duke Itoris because of his outrageously immoral life, will be a strong influence helping pure minded women in high positions to make known that the laws of morality arc superior to the customs of society. It will he much easier for ladies to refuse greeting to men whose lives are notoriously had. While Mrs. I laves was in the White House her influence in regard to the use of intoxicants prepared the way for a continued improvement over former years in White I louse etiquette. When society has once taken a step upward it is not easy to sink clear hack to the low level again. The Republican party in its Territoral Convention, Sept. i, put itself on record as opposed to any Dispensary Legislation by the following plank: "13. We do not favor legislation ending toward the conducting of the iquor business by the Territorial Gov- ernment." This is apparently a harmless statement of an excellent purpose. It is true that it is not desirable to have the liquor business conducted by the Territorial Government. It is also true that the liquor business is not desirable no matter by whom it may he conducted. There is a sense of degradation which can never be removed from any one conducting a saloon, whether it is handled by a government or by an individual. Nevertheless it was not the purpose of the liquor men to bring out the low status of the liquor traffic. They simply meant to check any movement toward inaugurating a Dispensary or Gothenberg system of handling intoxicants in these islands. The real desire was to check any interference with their money making. Again we note that it was only owing to the steadfast earnestness of a few men that the Republican party was kept from appearing before the American public as an out and out whiskey party. It is an open secret that a much stronger pro-saloon plank was desired in the platform. A few level-headed men checked the committal of the Republicans to a pledge against all temperance legislation. This would have compelled the organization of a third party and the nomination of men of good character and influence for the responsible positions subject to the vote of the people. still, my soul, in the sih-tit dark I would question thee .Mime in the shallow drear anil stark With God ami me.

Do you not think that Elisha kept a sharp watch on Elijah? Then suddenly there swept down that chariot of fire; Elijah stepped into his Father's carriage, which had come to take him home, and was swept away up to heaven. As Elisha watched him, Elijah seems to have suddenly thought be would not want the old mantle up there, that he would get a new white robe ; so he threw the old one down at Elisha's feet. Then Elisha took it up reverently, and said to himself, "I have seen him go, and I have what he promised." 1 doubt not the devil said to him, "Ah, you are a fool! You have nothing but an old mantle that is not worth your carrying." "Yes," said Pllisha, "I have something more than that —I have his power." "You do not feel it, do you?" "No, but that makes no difference ; I have it for all that. I saw him go, and I have it though I do not feel it." When he reached the Jordan there were a number of young students watching him. I think the devil said, "Now see those shrewd young fellows looking at you; if you make a failure, they will never forget it; and you are bound to fail. Wait until they have gone home to supper, and when it is a bit dusk you can practice with your old mantle." "No," he said, "I am not going to practice with it; I do not need to; I have my master's power, and I am going to act in faith." And he struck the waters in faith; in the act of faith he found he received that for which he trusted God. The landscape is very much affected by the glass through which you regard it. If that glass is yellow, everything looks yellow. If it is blue, everything looks blue. If it is somber, everything looks somber. Now, the man who is living a life of love looks out upon his life through the love of God, and the love of God has such a mysterious property in it that it takes away from terrible things their terror, from dreadful things their dread, and from the malignity of man his spite; and the soul looks with a calm serenity upon all the circumstances of life and finds itself hushed and calm. plunge in and follow the captain, and he Mr. Beers resigned his position at the Boarding School in order that he might accept will soon have the bullets flying about the position which had been left vacant by the of a him.

The ten spies differed from Caleb and Joshua in their report of the land of Canaan. There are three words here beginning with G—the word "God," the word "giant" and the word "grasshopper."." Now, note, these spies made a great mistake as to the position of these three words; they compared themselves with the people of the land and said, "And in their sight we were as grasshoppers." If they had compared the people of the land with God, they would have come back, as Caleb and Joshua did, who said in effect, "We have compared the giants with God, and the giants are as grasshoppers." If we were to believe in the survival of the fittest there would not be much chance for some of us. But the glory of the gospel is this, that God comes to the unfit, to the marred and spoiled, to those who have thwarted and resisted him, and that he is prepared to make them over again; and if you will let him he will make you too.

After which, he served as manager of the Boarding Scnool Ice Plant under Mr. Terry and in later years as superintendent of the farm work. The plans for the Hilo Boarding School are progressing. About $19,000 have been subscribed for the purpose. Mr. H. M.

Others are expected and when all are returned there will probably be about sixty; which is as many as the Seminary buildings can accommodate. The teaching of lace making.—which is a new department in the school—is meeting with a great interest ; quite a number having forty-six joined the class, while others are intending to do so in a short time. The girls are taught to do very good work- in the tlress making and native weaving departments —and already they have commenced to prepare for the Christmas sale.

The new teachers come with the best of recommendations. Miss Calwell. who takes the work in English, and other branches, is a graduate of Acadia, a university whose graduates enter the senior year at Harvard, a normal graduate and an experienced teacher. She resigns the principalship of a Canadian High School to engage in Hawaiian mission work. Miss Seong. of the primary department, is a graduate of the city Normal School, and a kindergarten teacher of several years' experience. She conies highly recommended by all under whom she has studied and taught. The matron's position is held by Mrs. Watson, formerly of Maunaolu Seminary, in which she filled the same position for eight years. The industrial department is to be made a prominent feature of the school. In the sewing department, under Miss Van Anglen. plain sewing for ladies and children will be done, and articles of Hawaiian weaving may be obtained, at reasonable rates. Four of the more advanced pupils of the sewing department are assisting Mrs. Wilcox in her weekly sewing classes in connection with Kawaiahao church. The seminary is this year open to Normal students as a boarding home. A number have already entered and others are expected. It is hoped that the financial stringency so generally predicted for the coming year, will not be so severe as to cripple the efforts being made for the improvement of the school.

While to he sure we are thankful that life is given to us in little bits and are, in one sense of the word, wise if we live but a day, hut an hour, at a time, still in another sense we are most unwise if we look no further than the nearest duty, the next step to be taken. A purpose for life must we have? Yes, and why not a particular purpose for each .year, each winter, each month? Let as not be lotus eaters dreamily seeing all days glide by as summer days, but let us choose some course, make some plan, set ourselves to certain tasks to be done in certain times—then may we better grow, physically, intellectually, spiritually. Life is but a working day, Whose tasks are set aright A time to work, a time to pray, And then a quiet night. And then, please God, a quiet night, Whose palms are green and robes are white, A iong-drawn breath, a balm for sorrow, And all things lovely on the morrow. —C ROSSETTI. PORTUGUESE | the dwellings being built almost entirely of native stone with red tiled roofs and wide verandahs showing glimpses of cool, dim interiors through the overhanging masses of vines. Well kept parka break the monotonous lengths of streets solidly built up of business and dwelling houses. Beyond the mountains stretches the open country, almost the whole of it entailed estates of the nobility, but divided into small holdings given over to the peasants for cultivation. The lines of survey marked by stone walls or box hedges and not infrequently by solid hanks of nothing but fuschias in full bloom. Quaint little peasant cottages with high thatched roofs meet the eye as the traveler swings through the country in a cushioned and silk curtained palanquin suspended from the shoulders of two strong carriers. It has a semi-tropical climate and from the harbor of Funchal where the whitewinged vessels come and go, cargoes of tropical fruits and casks of wine of the famous 'old Madeira' vintage are sent to the markets of the world." It is a winter resort for invalids and tourists from the northern part of the continent. Since the islands are thickly populated and the land is owned by the nobility, it is difficult for the common people to gain a living. The wages of skilled mechanics in the city seldom exceeded eighty cents a day. The women do beautiful and dainty needlework. Their hand-made embroideries are HOMES IN HONOLULU. exported to England and parts of the Among the many representatives of European nations on these islands are the Portuguese, The majority of them came here as laborers from the middle and lower classes of the islands of Madeira and Azores. As their terms of contract expired, with inherent desire of owning homes, they bought or leased small tracts of land and began at once to improve them, and now they, with few exceptions, own their homes. They are noted for industry and thrift. The barren plots under Portuguese cultivation and care were soon converted into blooming gardens and fruitful vineyards. The Portuguese is most happy when he can dwell "under his vine and under his fig tree." Let us take a glance at their mother country. "The discovery of Madeira was the second achievement of the early Portuguese mariners," Columbus married a daughter of its first Governor. Funchal, the capital of Madeira, is a "white city;" matters of importance. The brothers are their sisters' keepers. The altars in the Catholic homes teach reverence for religion and the church. The children consider it a great favor to be allowed to kiss the priest's ring as he rides past them on the street and extends his hand to them. Here is a beautiful Catholic custom. When a child approaches his father in the morning off goes his cap and "pa* a sua benca" is reverently spoken ; the father lifts his hand and says, "The Lord bless you and keep you my child." This custom is still practised by the older families, but alas, it is vanishing. Among the Catholics the Sabbath day used to be like any other week day: only the feast days were kept sacred. Since the Protestant mission was established here its influence has permeated even Catholic homes and now one seldom sees a Portuguese going to the fish market on Sunday morning to do his marketing. The home life also has been lifted to a higher standard. The parsonage situated among them as it is has veritably been a college settlement. The kindergarten where seven hundred and twelve little souls have come in contact with the teachings of Froebcl withm the last eight years, lias heen an uplifting influence the result of which eternity alone can estimate. The Portuguese are a music-loving people and although the trotibador of the mother country was not transmigrated to these isles yet in almost every home is found the guitar or violin, the younger element taking to the piano and organ.

Gulick, was sent to the committee who had in charge last spring the plans and alterations that might he made in the working of the Society during the new half century. A few quotations are not out of place here, although the letter was not received in time to he acted upon before the Jubilee. "A suggestion of Cousin F. W. Damon's made some years ago, recurs frequently to my mind, with a very strong wish that it might he acted upon in some way. It was that 'the Cousins' Society might as an organization, take up the work (which our Cousin Frank Damon and his admirable wifehave done so many years) of giving a welcome, and a God-speed to the numerous missionaries of all these eastern lands who touch at Honolulu." She adds: "Not that there has been any lack of service— but I covet for the Society which represents all the descendants of the Hawaiian missionaries, a share in that good work." She suggests that a committee might be possibly appointed to work with Cousin F. W. Damon, and a purse be supplied to help entertain the welcome visitors as they come and go. This suggestion may well he considered in future, when the question of how our funds arc kept up, and our responsibilities of the past met, is decided. A letter from Father Edward Bailey from Alhambra, Los Angeles Co., S. Cal., dated Sept. 2nd, acknowledges from the hand of Mrs. Robert W. Andrews, the Jubilee number of the annual report "with thanks," corrects some small errors, and then says: "In the Missionary Album my going as a delegate to Micronesia was left out. Perhaps the fault was my own. I consider it a good piece of my life. In looking hack over my life I see things not as 1 would now do them. But my happiest missionary year was when I had a select boys' school at Wailuku. My hardest years were when I had the Kula Kaikamahine of Wailuku. But it was not in vain." "I regret that my hook on Micronesia has not heen printed. If it had~Ticen published that great blunder of the U. S. in regard to Ponape, would have been left out of its history.

We are happy to note that this Summer Miss Ruth Beckwith, the daughter of Rev. Frank A. and Mrs. Mary (Holmes) Beckwith, is visiting her grandparents, Rev. and Mrs. Edward G. Beckwith, of Paia, Maui. Miss Catharine W. Goodale, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. W. Goodale of Waialua Plantation, has lately left the Islands to finish her education at the East. Rev. Horace W. Chamberlain and wife have moved from Columbia City, Washington, to the state line between Washington and Idaho, where he supplies two churches, Newport, Wash., and Priest River, Idaho. Mrs. Frances L. Church reports in a late letter that she has removed her home from Lansing, Mich., to Oherlin, Ohio. Her daughter Louise, who is a most successful teacher of the blind and now connected with the State Asylum in Salem, Oregon, has been favored this summer to join two very unusual camping-out excursions with scientific parties, to the summit of the wonderful mountains of Oregon. * PERSONIFIED THE KNABE Among the Honolulu people Nearly seventy years of uninterrupted success in the manufacture of the KNABE PIANO insures the possessor of the Knabe of today, an instrument incomparable in the realm of pianos who have bought a KNABE are the following; in whose homes the pianos sing their own pra.ses:GOV.

All of them were thriving at the last date, and the smallest of them, who weighed but 4J lbs. at birth, had "almost caught up with his brothers." Their names are Donald, Chester Dean, and Dale Edward Christison. We have to record the death of Mr. Philip Weaver, Sr., husband of Mrs. Ellen (Armstrong) Weaver, (manager of the Lunalilo Home), on the 15th of September, 1902. His remains were cremated (at his own previously expressed request) and the urn was interred in the Armstrong plat in the Mission Cemetery of Kawaiahao. Mr. Weaver had been in Honolulu about fifteen months, having been an invalid for many months here. His suffering was borne with heroic patience and his end was perfect peace.
