The Maternity Home.

One of the most useful institu-
tons in this community ia the
Maternity Home. It has often
been demonstrated that one of
the main reasons for the rapid
decrease of the Hawaiians was
the lack of eare shown 10 new
born children aud to birth giving
mothers At the Home the Ha-
waiian women find all the atten-
ton and proper treatment ueees-
sary aud the institution shows as
good results as it could be ex-
pected with the limited means at
its disposal. In all other COM
mnnities such Institutions are
Supported, if not altogether car
ried On at erublic' sexpense here
the Home is neary altogether
depending on individual charity.
The Home has felt the hard times
as well as other charitable insti-

raise funds by the G wing of a
grand luau which will take place
on the 3lst inst, mt tie Home on

The fact that bat less than one
hundred patents have been Issued
hy the Hawaiian Government
does not speak volumes for the
inventive ability of the residents
of this country. Nor are all the
patents to Hawaiians, many of
them. perhaps a majority, are
merely to people in the United
States who wish TO protect their
interests all over the world.
We have had patent issued
for the Jones Locked Fence,
because we saw that it was
good thing, and the people who
build fences believed it the best
thing they had ever seen. Certain
parties had IN contemplation
the manufacture of the articles
used in the Locked Fence, and
we did not think that an imitation
article would be half as good as
the original, hence, the patent
on Hawaii.
We have been selling the
Jones Locked Fence for a year
and its popularity is growing
every day. AS an evidence of
what the Fence is thought of by a
gentleman who is thoroughly
well posted in cattle and fences
we publish the following letter:

the Woman's Board of Foreign

Agitation Amongst Asiatics.

While the question Of fran
chise for the japanese has been
foremost in the minds Of our
politicians, the Chinese have not
been idle. There is no treaty
betw, en- China and Hawaii. but
the Chinese residents here who
pay nearly one fourth of all the
revenue of the country feel that
they must protect their interests,
and have right to be heard in
the Councils of the land. The
precipitation with which the P.
G. dropped the obnoxious license
act has shown the Chinese that
they have sufficient power to
dictate to the government, and
they are determined to have
their rights. This movement
has been anticipated for some
time which can been seen from
the following remarks that APP
peared in the Sun Francisco Ne,ys
Letter of March 10Th. 1t says:

But now that they have seen the

it is as springy az a wire mattress.

THE STEAMER ANNIE LAURIE

During the week we had the pleas
ure of making short trip on board
the steamer Annie Laurie, recently
bought by the Messrs. Mulholland to
take the place of the much regretted
steamer Chattahoochee. Once more
we had an opportunity to find out that
one should never judge from appear
ances. When the Steamer Annie
Laurie went down, we took her to be
small craft, much smaller than the
Ruth, and we thought her hardly the
boat that was needed in this trade,
and we felt confident that in spite OF
her reputation for speed which had
preceded her, she would not be able to
make the three trips week that the
trade demands. On going aboard OF
her, however, we found out that she
was q neat and roomy steamer OF
200 ton burden, that her cabin is wide
and spacious. with fine Brussels carpet
on the floor, lighted both with elegant
glass chandeliers and 16 candle power
electric lights, SO judiciously scattered
throughout the cabin, that one can
easily read anywhere on the evening,
which is rather difficult matter on
other steamers.
/ The ladies' cabin is furnished with
elegant rattan rocking chairs, a fine
piano, and especially has two comfor-
table hooks furnished with sofas
where ladies who so desire can sit
down out OF the public gaze.
| The Annie Laurie is new boat
built at Marietta, Ohio, only two years
| ago; she has 10 staterooms, all fitted
up with large, comfortable beds, out
side blinds, all staterooms having access
to wide guards, which are so Otter
!, lacking ON steamers of that kind.
AS to speed the Annie Laurie Away
, enjoyed the reputation of passing an.
boat that she met with between Mem
, phis and Cairo, where she piled befor
she came here. We were told by al
eyewitness that she proved it tn
other day when she passed the City 0
: Hickman, the fastest Anchor line boa
: in open river and kept ahead OF hel
!. making all her landings from Good
lrich's to Greenville. The officers as
sured us that, though not burning b
: half the quantity Of coal that the Rut
. requires, she is much faster than Lad
Ruth; and we ourselves noticed tha
instead of "a hours that it general
