CastawaYs.

SAN FRANCISCO. April 22.-The Brit
ish bark Wandering Minstrel, which
sailed from Honolulu December 10, 1887,
has been heard from. She was wrecked
at the Midway island on January 8,
1888, and the crew found on the island
q man named Georgesen, who had be-
longed to the schooner Gen. Seigel,
which had been wrecked there some
time before. He had been left on the
island by his shipmates because they
suspected him of foul play in connec-
ton with the death of two of the crew.
On October IS the mate, John Cameron,
a Chinese boy, and G~eorgesen left in an
open boat for Honolulu. March II,
1888, the schooner Norma arrived at
Midway Island and took the rest of the
crew to Honolulu. During the fourteen
months sojourn on the island the casta-
ways subsisted on sea birds and fish and
they were almost starved when taken
off.

An v 9 ship.

WASHINGTON, April 22.-The non
arrival of the Monongahela at Samoa
has caused considerable uneasiness in
navy circles. The ship has now been
out v e sixty days and no word of her
| arrival has been received. The Mc4on-
gaheia left San Francisco February 10,
loaded with stores, and in addition car
riedta large deck load of coal for use of
the fleet now unfortunately destroyed.
The distance from San Francisco to
Apia is 4 200 miles. and with favorable
winds, such as prevail at this season,
she ought to make the voyage in eS least
forty days. Under date of April 16, a
~cablegram was received from Lieut..
Wilson at Auckland, announcing that
he had chartered q vessel to carry the
shipwrecked men to San Francisco, but
nothing was said about the Monon-
gahela. a number OF naval officers
were seen last night and they were of
the opinion that the ship, seeing the ap-
proach of the storm, stood off from the
land and went to sea. There can be no
question but the ship was in the track
of the hurricane. and when the gale
came on was in the vicinity of Samoa.
The condition of the Monongahela is
lone of the best, and it is this fact that
cause 30 much anxiety.

A Home for Young Workingwomen
In San Antonio.

The wages OF young workingwomeu,
are seldom equal to their necessities.
Sometimes relatives furnish board at
half rates, or present them with the
most expensive articles of clothing, or
give them second hand clothing
which they make over when others
are asleep. But hundreds of girls
have no relatives, and are among
strangers who manifest no interest
in their welfare. Then all girls are
under more or less of temptation from
frivolous, ignorant, and thoughtless
people with whom they must associ-
ate. For such girls, all the sweet in
fluences of judicious, intelligent
Christian motherhood should be pro-
vided. For twenty years past, such
homes have been provided in
various cities, thousands of noble
women, now trace their high
moral principle and pride in self-sup.
port and in supporting others, to the
spirit of these christian homes for
women. They are not charities.
Women of doubtful character are not
admitted.
An earnest but humble effort for
such home, has been made by Mrs.
Mary NJ. Clardy. She rented of Mr..
Fry an eight room dwelling, No. 62l
E. Houston street, the lot being
washed on the east by the Alamo
ditch. About twenty ladies, and two
gentlemen, assisted her, in paying
the rent, in renovating the premises,
in giving furniture, fuel and provis-
ions for the past month.
Miss Hattie Bell, formerly of
Gainesville, has been, an inspra-
ton and a discreet assistant, in con-
ducGing this Woman's Christian
Home.
Mrs. Clardy considered that God
bad owned the humble offering, when
the first guest presented herself. 1t
was Captain Reesi, of the Salvation
army, the same lady who is now con-
Quoting the meetings in Austin. She
arranged that Captain Narrowly and
Lieut.. Hoyt should abide under the
same roof. The incessant rain and
consequent rise in the Alamo ditch,
led to the falling of the walls, and
the dislodging of this little band of
Christian women. 1t is Mrs. Clardy's
wish to resume housekeeping for their
sake, and for other working women,
as soon as possible. She needs a
house, well located for tOiling women,
in a central part of the city. She
also needs the hearty support of a
"Woman's Christian Association"
representing every lover of our race,
and protector of the daughters of
Texas.
Mrs. Clardy and Miss Bell are the
guests of Mrs. Fry, No. Is, Avenue E.
