VOORHEES, OLD WOMEN.
Mime. Sorbier Says the Able Bodied
Ones Need No Help.

at is the women who are old that we
are especially trying to provide work for.
said Nine. Louise Sorbier yesterday, when
speaking TO a CALL reporter respecting
the combined efforts at present being made
by the Federation of Women aud the
Woman's Educational and Industrial In
ion to provide work for the destitute
women of this city.
1.-The women who can wash an0 iron are
not in any need" continued the president
of the union. ION the contrary. there is a
constant demand for able-bodied women.
The demand is greater than the supply.
But when l ask some good lady out OF
charity to take one of the old women or
one of the women who is not strong
enough to do manual labor into her
kitchen she lifts UP her hands in horror

NEED MORE FUNDS
The Unemployed" Pro-
ject Losing Ground.
The Force to Be Decreased Unless
Additional Funds are Sent In
Before Tomorrow.

| The rich people of San Francisco would
| send big checks 10 the citizens committee
| IL they could only realize the fearful suf-
! ferings of the thousands of worthy men
! now roaming the streets in a destitute
! condition unable TO secure either shelter,
nutriment or even the necessities of life.
Especially so il they could look into the
! scores of homes shrouded in misery and
sorrow, where in many cases the presence
! of food is unknown for days at a time, and
the half-starving. Improperly cared for.
| sallow-faced children Of poverty await the
coming of heartsickened father at night
fall, who. after tramping throughout the
day in search Of something, no matter
what it is, to brighten the threshold of a
once happy home, announces that twas
all in vain.
Such cases are of daily occurrence and
still the few phIlanthrOpic aiders in re-
lieving these miserable people IN their dis
tress have sacrificed time, business and
means in their endeavor to convince the
city millloDaires of the fact that the suf-
fering among their midst is frightful, 60
say the least, and with all their efforts
these few who compose the citizens relief
committee have only succeeded In accumu-
lating some S., 600.
If this feeling continues TO prevail much
longer the results will be felt with much
weight as has often been predicted. The
committee only need about $4,000 to COM
pete the good work now done at the park,
and to alleviate the suffering of the MANY
thousands who are so anxious to seek out a
miserable pittance of one doll ar day.
There were 968 men at work yesterday
and the committee will be obliged to de-
crease this number when giving out the
tickets tomorrow. unless the funds are
considerably increased before that time.

BLIGHT AND RATS.
Active Enemies to Coffee Culture in

that in South Kona, there was new

This account was laid before Mr..
Marsden at once Said he: "That
is simply ridiculous. There may be
a blight that resists certain kind of
lady bug, but blight feeds on leaves
and branches and fruit only. The
lady bug of certain varities has its
enemies but they have not yet been

disappear before some kind of

restoration of the ex-queen is now
explained. His own eloquent
mouth has opened and told the
tale of her wrongs to the American
people.
Mr.. Parker has published In the

ment, which is reproduced in this
mornings issue of the ADVERTISER.
This statement is moderate IN
tone. and contains great many
things that are true, with some
that are new. The paper is signed
by the ex-premier, but its author
ship mas not been ascertained. 1t
will not set the river on fire. With
out any intention to fatter Mr.
Parker we say in all sincerity that

AS TO MR.. MCCHESNEY.
His Nominator Says He Was Aware
Of His Action.

Mr.. EDITOR Il noticed In to-
nights Star an article stating that
Mr.. McChesney informed that pa
per that his name was used at the
mass meeting unauthorized by him.
Mr.. McChesney was present (Which
can be proven very easily, during
the whole proceedings and did not
make any objection to the use OF
his name as a candidate of the An
nexation Club.
Now, as matter of fact, Mr..
McChesney knew all about it, and
went so far as to have some OF his
Portuguese friends there to "pull''
for him at the drill shed that even
ing. I met him afterward and he
informed me that his men had vot-
ed for Smith by,,mistake, and were
quite disguised by their actions
This also can be proven.)

greatly oblige,

IDENTIFY an American of the right
sort, and it is gratifying thing TO
Americans to see their country In
a position to protect the rights OF
countrymen abroad by the display
of an adequate force. The princi-
pie of international law involved Is
not a complex one. The insur-
gents in Brazil have not the rights
of belligerents, and cannot, there
fore, interfere with the movements
of foreign trading vessels. The
action of Admiral Benham was
simply taken to protect American
shipping in the pursuance OF their
ordinary rights.

UNFIT TO RULE.
A Newspaper Mans Opinion of Elk
Queen Liliuokalani.

WASHINGTON, Jan. SIC. L.
Macarthur, editor of the Troy
On. W Budget, was before the
Senate Hawaiian Investigation
Committee today. He went to Ho-
nolulu in March for the purpose of
investigating the situation. He
told the committee he went there
prepossessed in favor of the queen,
but came away entirely convinced
that the revolution was justified
and that the queen was unfit to
rule the Islands. Macarthur was
on the Islands at the time Blount
was there and stopped at the same
hotel with him. He declared
Blount's report was perversion OF
facts as he had gathered them, and
also pronounced absurd the story
of the Stevens conspiracy. Mac
Arthur criticized Blount's method
of getting information and declared
that the most ordinary newspaper
man would have gone into the sub
ject far more thoroughly.
