Maui for the past two weeks, leaves
for Honolulu today. He claims to
'have organized a dozen or more

Among the chief of his recruits,

Kane would not say now many
converts he has enrolled, but de
clared that Makawao club, with
seven members, is the smallest. He
says clubs are now regularly orga

Wailuku, Kahului, Makawao, Ia

The 02ndannual confcrcnccof the
Hawaiian Evangelical Association

luku. Its sessions will continue for
one week. According to the esti
mate of the conunitteo which has
the arrangement of the affair in
hand, there will ho between 350 and
100 delegates present.
Most of the delegate!-, are Hawaiian
ministers, though there will be a few
Chinese and Japanese, and some 30
or 40 English speaking members
present.
The problem of caring for this
largo concourse of people in Wailuku
is something of n problem, but the
committee claims to have solved it
satisfactorily. The Armory, the
Town Hall, the Wailuku Japanese
Home, and the old Parker place on
upper Main street have been secured
for sleeping quarters, while the
meals will be served to a consider
able extent out of doors, in picni
or luau style.
Tho opening event of the confer
ence will be the organ recital on
Wednesday evening at the Wailuku
Union Church. This will bo tho
third free recital which has been
given in the church since the Henry
Pcrrino Baldwin memorial organ
was installed.
Tho program is an elaborate one,
and marks out an exceedingly ac
tive week for tho delegates. Six
o clock sunrise prayer meetings arc
features of each day. The evening
meetings will all bo held in tho
Maui Theater, and a number of in
teresting features are arranged for
each evening.
On Saturday afternoon there will
bo an excursion lo Haiku, and on
Saturday evening, plans are made
so tho delegates can attend the
opening of the Wailuku Japanese
Girls' Home, and also tho sports
n ight at tho Gymnasium.
Tho Sunday School and Christian
Endeavor exhibitions on Sunday
will be big affairs, and the special
conference service on Sunday night
will also bo most attractive.
Tho Maui Aid Association oflico
will bo the headquarters of tho Ha
waiian Board and other vorker3
during the meetings.
Guests will be entertained by po o
pie in Wailuku and vicinity.
Special trains arc being arranged by
the Committees for tho whole of tho
Conference, and on these trains
delegates will bo allowed tickets
that will pass them. Also for the
opening Organ Recital at Union
Church any one desiring tickets for
cthc train to Wailuku or out from
Wailuku in order to attend the
Recital should send word to the
Rev. R. B. Dodge.

Up to last night there remained
still some seven or eight precincts
to bo heard front in connection with
ast Saturday's plebiscite election.
s a consequence the exact results
of the vote on the county bond issue
are not yct available. It was early
evident, however, that the measure
had failed to carry, owing to the
fact that probably not much more
than a third of the registered voters
in tho Uounty went to tlio polls.
Thero were probably less than
1000 votes cast out of a possible
2G20, and while thoso votes that
were cast were largely iu favor of
the bonds, tho measure fails, since
under the law at least a majority of
tho registered voters must voto
allirmativoly.

following results:

Hawaii in search of Fred L- Smith,
after failing to locate his man in
Honolulu, wirelessed on Wednes
day that his mission had been suc
cessful. Smith, as he gave his
name at the First National Bank,
where he passed a bogus check for

"senator Warren'sson" at Lahaina,
in an effort to get another check
cashed. Sheriff Crowell located
his party on the Kona coast of the
Big Island. He is expected back
with him today.
It has bepn learned that under
another name, Smith worked for a
time for the Lord-Young Company
in Honolulu. It is believed that
he is a professional crook and has
been hiding in the Islands.
The local bank was largely in
strumental in runningSinithdown,
and was prepared to have continu
ed the search on the mainland had
it been necessary.

Mrs. W. O. Aiken was hostess
on Tuesday to the Makawao Read
ing Club. The meeting was an
unusually interesting one. Dr. Le

nating talks sn psychology, which
