THE ELECTION DISTRICTS AND PRECINCTS
A SUCCESSFUL LUAU.
The Maternity Home Clears a Large
Amount of Money.
Drawn from the official map by an ADVERTISER

The Maternity Home luau was a
grand success, both in social and
financial way. AS far as can be
estimated at present, the receipts
amounted to 5000, with more TO
come from some who have not yet
made returns for the tickets they
were seliing.g Out of this amount,
there are the'expenses yet to come,
but it is thought that at least $500
will be cleared for the Home. This
is great help, as the expenses of
running the Home have been large
of late. and it was in great need OF
money.
A large lanai had been built for
the occasion, in which the tables
were spread. Every conceivable
Hawaiian delicacy was served, and
for those who did not care for ma
tive dishes, there was haole
food. Eight or nine hundred peo-
ple must have sat down during the
afternoon.
The lanai was beautifully decor
ated. The ceiling was entirely
covered with flags, as were also the
walls. Large pots of ferns added
another beauty to the scene that
was made even more lively by the
many colored leis that adorned
nearly everyone present. In fact,
everyone had to have lei, and
often a number, or else refuse to
buy it when asked to do SO by
pretty girl, and, as the price of the
purchase went for sweet charity,
very few were hard-hearted enough
to refuse. The sales of the lels and
of button-hole bouquets went long
way toward swelling the total re-
ceipts of the day.
The Home itself was shown to
all who cared to inspect it, and a
great many took advantage of the
opportunity. The exhibit that at
tracted the greatest attention was
q tiny arrival, in the shape OF a
little girl, who put in her appear
ance the night before-just in time
for the luau.

The reaction from the squirt of few

The Drift Backward.
If the buying of the past week We're
taken as criterion it would be said
that the drift was backward From

the report comes of limited transactions
and disposition to wait and
feel the way. Pig iron stocks
accumulated somewhat in February,
and on foundry and forge stock,
the tendency is still in that direction.
Opinions differ as to the effect of the
low price Of ore outside the soft steel
market, but it is apparent that the new
basis will at least draw the line more
closely on Southern irons, and favoring
freights will not cut so large a figure in
marketing the product of that section.
