They are just returning from a trip to the Hawailan Islands, for the past four months having spent a delightful trip through the paradise of the Pacific n “God might have made a more beautiful country,” as Bishop Berkley says, “but he dld not,” remarked the returning pilgrims to the famed islands of the mid-Pacific. The government of Hawall, Major Hig- ley says, I8 copled after that of the United States. “They have a thoroughly organized republic in every particular. But the intelligent realize that it Is provis- | fonal The sentiment in favor of annexation is strong. The most kindly feelings are cherished toward the United States among the natives, as well as the rest of the population. I predict that if the United States does not annex the islands Japan will.

Besides, the Japanese are restless under the Hawallan govrnment, because the government does not allow the orientals to participate in affalrs, The balance of the population, however, are allowed to vote. They are only placed under a property and educational qualification. Yes, I think that it the United States does not take control of the fslands during the course of the next ad- ministration Japan will. But I think that the Hawailans realize the complexity of the problem and are in favor of coming in as a territory, and not as a state. President Dole of the republic told me that he is in favor of annexation, and many of the most prominent royalists are also, including Cum- mings, the leader of the rebellion, who is now under $30,000 bonds, and the English guardian of Princess Kaulani, who has been a pronounced royalist, has lately expressed himself to the effect that annexation is the only salvation for the fslands. In the United States we have many Hawalian exiles. They are unanimously in favor of annexation, as it would result in the restoration of their rights.” more classes necessarily. is the allies PRESIDENT DOLE. ribed by Major Hig- ley as a ssuming gentleman of New England extraction, though born in the islands, In personal appearance he com- pares him to S, H. H. Clark of the Union Pacific. During the rebellion his bravery was severely tested. When the govern- ment house was bejng attacked President Dole boldly faced the crowd of insurgents. He is a man of broad views who realizes the Impossibility of the Hawalian islands | sustaining thelr independent position and consequently he favors annexation. Major Higley speaks in high terms of the popularity of Minister Willis, and states that he believes that he is winning the government friends. The Thurston affair he summed up by briefly stating that it was evident that Thurston and Gresham differed. Regarding the people of the fslands, it may be said of them that they are a docile and exccedingly © good natured, happy-go- easy race of brown-eyed, black-haired peo- ple, for the most part well developed phys- feally. © A fat matron s their ideal of beauty. The native has, like the North American Indian, been willing to sell his rights to the whites, and they have conse- quently obtained control of most of the land. The wants of the natives are sim- ple, and they are contented if they can get their fish and poy. On these two articles they can live contentedly. The poy is a fermented product made from the taro root, pasty in appearance, and holds the place in the islands that the potato does in Ireland. LIKELY TO EXCEL IN COFFEE. Major Higley speaks of a new industry springing up in the islands, which promises to eclipse the sugar industry. They raise a coffee berry called kona, which s today quoted 2 cents higher in the London mar. ket than the Java or Mocha grades. The soll of the islands is of a reddish color, and In the lower regions needs irri- gation. This has been followed up exten- sively.

In these two harbors all the vessels of the world could float. The im- portance to the United States of the Pearl harbor as a coaling station cannot be over- estimated, especially should the Nicaraguan canal be built, as it then would lie in a course line to Japan. The island Is very anxious to have a cable constructed, and a San Francisco company, under General W. H. Dimond, s organized and pushing the work. Honolulu fs described by the travelers as & place of about 25000 population. The buildings are low. The school facilities are excellent, a Mrs. Bishop of royal lineage having several years ago left $480,000 for the higher education of the native women. WANTS TO RETURN TO HAWAIL Clalms to Have Known Nothing About the Late Levo'ution, SAN FRANCISCO, June 2.—H. M. Rooney, who was exiled from Hawalii after the recent uprising, has made public his complaints to the United States. He says he s an Ameri- can citizen of New York, but has resided in Hawall since 1879, where he was successively chief overseer of Spreckels' sugar plantation and business manager of the Daily Holomu; the royalist paper. He states he was ar- rested by the Citizens' guard after the rebel- lion, and that he was absolutely ignorant of the ‘plans and purposes of the revolutionists He claims he was kept in an unhealthy prison for thirty-two days and given just enough f00d to iive on, finally being forced to con- sent to deportation In order to gain his lib- erty. His property in Honolulu has suffered by his absence. He desires to return to the islands and considers himselt damaged to the extent of $70,000. B World's Columbian FExposition.

WAS A YEAR OF GOOD WORK Anniversary of ths Young Men's Ohristian Association Oelebrated Yesterday, INCREASED ACTIVITY IN ALL LINES SHOWN Addresses by Rev. 8, K. Jessup of New York and Major Halford — Leading Facts as to the Endeavor in the Departments, The Sunday afternoon meeting at the Young Men's Christian assoclation rooms yesterday celebrated the anniversary of the association and aroused somewhat more than the usual interest on that account. The board of di- rectors occupied seats on the rostrum with the speakers, and the large auditorium was filled, in epite of the rain which preceded the opening hour. Secretary Ober presided K. Jessup of and introduced ew York, who spoke briefly on “Character.”” He took the ground that his hearers, like himself, were all day laborers in this world. They were all build- ing character. Upon how they built and the materials that they used depended whether the completed structure amounted to anyth Charac was a bundle of graces, If they wished to leave an influence in the community in which they lived and a name that should be honored and respected they &hould build th character that when trials came they should be able to bear them. The most Important essential in this work of character building was the material of which the foundation was constructed, Of these the most important were honesty, per- sonal purity, temperance and Christian man- liness. A man might have any one of these virtues and not be a Christian, but he could not be a Christlan unless he had them all The anniversary address was delivered by Major Halford, who briefly reviewed the work of the last year and outlined what was to be attempted in the future. At the end of the year the membership roll of the asso- ciation_contained 1 of which 45 were those of active me Financlally the association had more than held its own in spite of the hard times and the outlook was very encouraging. The athletic features of the organization had been much improved The new park at Twenty-eighth and Dodge streets was much more accessible than the old grounds, and an increa interest was manifested in this department One of the most encouraging features of the year w the increased interest in the junior department. About fifty boys were in at- tendance at the Sunday afternoon boys' meet- ing, and they were uniformly enthusiastic and devoted. The educational department improving. During the classes had included 817 members, and the directory was contemplating measures to broaden the scoj of this department. The religious work of the assoclation fully Kept pace with its other interests There had been an average attendance of over 300 at the Sunday afterncon meetings for young men, and these were becoming one of the most helpful features ‘of the work. The bible classes and consecration meetings had had vivifying influence on the religious atmosphere and were well supported. In the intervals between the addresses Mr. Thomas J. Pennell sang *“Come U Me,” and Mrs., Wilhelm sang “‘Come Over th Line. NEW on was_constantly year the various had PENTECOST SADLY NEIDED. Whit Sunday Sermon at the Church of the Good Shepherd Last Evening. Rev. J. P. D. Llwyd of the Church of the Good Shepherd took for the subject of his sermon last evening “The New Pentecost.” The substance of his remarks was as fol- lows: From one point of view tivals of the church, such Feast of Pentecost or Whit sent historic events which for all in ancient days in Palestine. From another point of view enshrining an equal truth these festivals are ever repeated, both in the progress of the church as a whole and in the soul life of individual Christians. Pentecost is thus the remembrance of a past event, and also the reminder that the same face which then descended upon the waiting disciples of Christ is forever being poured out into souls prepared for its en- trance. When ments of the the great fes as the present Sunday, repre- happened once we examine the spiritual attain- disciples. before Pentecost it is hard to see why any further equipment for their work was necessa TFor three vears they had been companions of Christ They had received from His lips the gospel | Their commission had been Within their souls His por- a mirror. Engraved upon s the impression of His mar- Scarcely any church fm Chris tendom today would ask a grander educa- tion for its candidates for the ministry. The main features of the kingdom’s organ- zation and the plan of campaign had .also been communicated to them by Christ. And yet He sentences them, in spite of all this, to walt for something further, some mys- terlous power from above, witheut which all else was inadequate. Not until the spirit was poured out from on high was the armor of the church of Christ complete, The present age shows a remarkable par- allel to this. Scientific discoveries have re olutionized our notions of the universe. The investigations of independent seekers after truth in every branch of learning have brought in a new knowledge. The church has been sometimes misguided enough to antago- nize such researches from fear least her truth might suffer, but experience has demon- strated the unwisdom of such policy. Far better to welcome these new truths and at- tempt the restatement of the old gospel in forms modified to meet the modern need. This attempt has been and is being made. The age of revision is upon us. The day of authorized versions is past. We have a revised and reinterpreted bib'e, a prayer beok enriched in elements of devotion; im- pessible creeds are being abandoned; the gospel is the same, yet stated in terms of present day thinking; salvation is no longer refined selfishness, but brotherhood. Every- thing in church life and church ways ex- emplifies the abiding presence of Him who is forever making all things new. This is a grand result, but not enough In itself a readjusted church will never rival the conversions under Peter's electric words on the day of Pentecost. The one thing yet lacking is a fresh communication of divine energy. All is useless without the touch of the soul of God upon the soul of man. For this we wait; for this we ought to pray. And when our preparation for it is complete it will come, bringing in its train creative force to turn every preacher into an inspired apostle and every layman into a steadfast helper of the kingdom of God. to be preached. issued by Him trait lay as in their h velous life. el CHASE FOR A BURGLAR. Found in & Hardware Store, 'ut Made flis Escape. Yesterday morning shortly before 4 o'clock a burglar was seen in the hardware store of Alexander M. McCrager, 410 North Sixteenth street, but he got away. Officer Bower was passing the store and noticed a man within busily filling a gunny- sack with knives, razors and other hardware articles. The officer went to the rear, but found the back door fastened. Thinking that the burglar had entered at the front door he returned to the front. By this time the man inside had become alarmed and he ran out of the back door. Bower ran through the alley after him and fired a couple of shots, but falled to hit him. Several passers-by joined in the chase, but the burglar escaped. It was later discovered that the burglar entered the store through the back door. He broke one of the panes of glass and then reaching in_unlocked the door. When he got in he closed the door and fastened it with a stick of wood. Two gunny-sacks were found on the floor, almost filled with goods. —— FUNEKAL DIKECTORS Mgeting Hot Sprin South Dakot 11 and 12, 1895, Speclal rates June 10th via the North- western line from all Nebraska stations.

That in determining whether rates are reasonable or unreasonable it is proper to take into account the amount of tariff charge the articles will bear, having regard not alone to the cost of transportation, but also the cost of producing such articles, and thei value to the consumer; so that the producer may have a margin of profit and the cost to the consumer be not made unreasonably ex- ork law T 1d the decree of the cir- rl hat, whereas, most of the defendant roads have received large government, state and municipal aid, on the theory that said roads are governmental age even though con- ducted by corporations, an{ whereas the regu- lation of rates is a governmental control for the benefit of trade and the peonle concerneld, it is proper to consider the amount of such vernment, state and municipal aid in de- termining what shall constitute reasonable rates to be charged by said respective roads. That, whercas, the Unlon Pacific is capi talized at four times its actual valu and the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolls & Omatia at twice its actual value, the St. Joseph & \Grmul Island at three times its actual value, and most of the other roads at double thelr actual value, the | owners and ho'ders of such fictitious | capitalization must be held to have taken the same subject to tho primary right of the state to regulate rates, anl hence the com- plainants have no right to insist that rates shall be adjudged unreasonable which do not yield a large profit on such fictitious capitali- zation. That a court of equity should not grant an injunction enjoining the enforcement of the law on the charge that the rates are unrea- sonable, for that there ls an adequate remedy |at law ‘in this: Section & of the Maximum judiclal procedure to determine whether the rates fixed thereby are unjust and unreason- able, and that if said rates are unjust and unreasonable, to have the same raised. Appellants’ deem it expedlent and highly desirable that this court shall hear this case, for the reason that if this court shall find the facts to be as contended by appellants, | said findings will practically dispose of all | questions of law in the case and entitle the | appellants to a dissolution of the pending in- junction. —_——— Epworth League, ( hattanooga.
