SAILORS HOME.
Where Working Men
Have Good Livingand
Jack Has Solid
Comfort.

An INDEPENDENT reporter me
r. 1. Green, superintendent o
the Sailors Home, near that in
stitution and asked him how tb'
place was doing.
every WELL" he replied. lit ii
quite full There are seventeen
regular roomers and Esometime'
as many as ten or twelve sailors
in the wards. There are twenty
regular boarders in the restaurant
and about one hundred meals
served to others every day."
AS Mr. Green walked over the
grounds with the reporter, he
SAID that the dodgers were all re-
spectacle wage-earners in bust :
ness and trades. Although the
restaurant is conducted by All
Hee, the we'll known Chinese ca
terer, it is under the jurisdiction
Of Mr.. and Mrs. Green, who see
that the fare is of the best.
Mrs. Green is a worthy help
meet of her husband in conduct
ing the home. She keeps the
rooms scrupulously clean and
tidy, so that no hotel presents
more inviting apartments for rest
and sleep. They are furnished
with comfortable beds and chairs,
also with bureaus and tables, and
the furniture is of tasteful pat
terms and substantial. The cots
in the sailors wards have mat
tresses as soft as down and linen
Of snowy purity. Mr.. and Mrs.
Green testify to the almost inva-
riable good conduct of the sailors
who take lodgings in the house.
Bluejackets patronize the wards
lumerously and are always well
behaved.
Superintendent Green has done
/ great deal of work IN the
grounds. There is about as
handsome truof OH the lawn on the
tide next Alakea street as can be
cen in the city. A hedge of
hibiscus is coming up on the mar
gin which will greatly beautify
he grounds. Mr.. Green has
planted twelve alligator pear
rees, also bananas, guavas, etc.
Lrs, Green is cultivating all
,inds of ferns for decorating the
balconies, etc. The
Dad along the rear from Alakea
treet is being rebuilt by Mr..
ireen. He has removed the
lint rock filling, replaced it with
arth, raised the grade and will
ave it macadamized.
There was a fault in the speci-
cations for the building, where
hey omitted to require a lock
for outside stairways,
eranda supports, etc. AS the
ouse stands on newmade ground,
he underpinning OF these pro-
ections soon settled, requiring a
God deal of trouble and expense
0 have the constructions recti- |
ed.
There is reading room. a bill
lard and a game room, and
nrge open hall, all of which add |
realty to the enjoyment of the
odgers. The front rooms look |
ut upon the ocean, and the con-
truction of the house ensures
mple ventilation. The Sailors
lone is credit to Honolulu and
gill continue to be such while it
las the fortune of being managed
s we'll as at present.

Armenians throughout the Tur
kish Empire s)me time durin,
the month OK May. The leaders
promised the people in the east.
ern part Of Armenia that the chic
attack will be made in the city o
Constsntinople itself and that th,
brunt of the fighting will be don,
by the Armenian residents there
in, but this may be only sub
terfuge to encourage the faint
hearted at Van, Bills and Moush.
The Armenians have at least 400C
Martini Henry rifles hidden in
secret places in the mountains
not great distance from
Lake Van.
For a handful OF unframed
Armenians to deliberately begin
fight with the 100000 regular
troops of the Turkish empire
would seem TO be the utmost
folly, yet the purpose is not to
bring Turkey to terms by fighting
but to settle the quarrel by
Intervention of the European
powers. Before the revolution is
three months old the powers,
1t Is believed, will be compel
led to take Il hand in the CON
fict, for the cruelty, the
atrocity, the outrage, the blood,
lust and butchery Of the struggle
will be so horrible that Christian
humanity will interfere. Arme-
MIA, it is then hoped, may get her
freedom.
For the most part the revolu-
tionary leaders are of the younger
generation OF Armenians, who
argue that it is no worse that
few Thousand Armenians should
be killed at one time than that
they should be killed separately
during q period Of q few months
or years.
To what extent the plans of the
revolutionary leaders are approved
by the Armenians at large it is
difficult to tell. | seriously doubt
if these plans are known in detail
10 more than 5 per cent of the
Armenians. Still, there are genuine
patriots who believe that to free
Armenia from the dreadful posi-
lion in which she is sunk they
must surrender, some of their
fellow countrynien to torture,
outrage and death.
There is u belief in Europe that
Russia desires to make the
Armenians Russian subjects by
the eastern end of
Turkey. Curiously enough, this
belief is not shared by the
Russians of the Caucasian region.
The IGeorgians certainly would
'esent any further increase in the
Armenian population. The bust
less methods of the Armenians
re not generally approved by
deorgians and Russians. 1t is
therefore, believed not likely that
Russia wants the Armenians, but
whether or not she wants the
Turkish territory which the
Armenians inhabit is quite
mother matter.
For the most part, the average
Armenian is anxious to have some
ther man fight his battles, and
le is willing to believe that
England and Russia are only
for a chance to step in
nd dismember the Turkish
umpire.
The Armenian newspaper in
Russia and Persia contain no hint,
however remote, Of their prepare
ions, but contain only denuncia-
ions of Turkish tyranny and
demands for the enforcement of

and General Patrick Collins,
Consul General, and ON his left
Andrew Carnegie. Among others
present were the stats of the

On the wall behind Mr.. Bay

The dinner was very elaborate.

the evening-to the Queen Mr..
Bayord said: 1.-The manhood of
America responds to the manhood
OF Great Britain in this toast, as
Americans of every opinion and
party honor the British sovereign's
Sex"
The toast to the President of
the United States was then given
by the ambassador. He referred
to Cleveland's vigorous actions at
all times when the honor of the
country demanded decisive steps
and when Americas equal rights
in the counsels of nations were
involved.
"We echo the voice of our
chosen chief when he makes |
known our desires" he said "and
we stand behind his policy. The
organization of Americans in
European capitals doubtless will
mold public opinion to the advan-
tage of our country"

mild sensation with his response
20 the toast. "Our Guests" The
stirring Americanism which he
oreathed in every sntence was all

Advantages of Producing Our Own
Sugar.

A plant or beet sugar factory cost.
ing 100000 will use, say, 800 tons
of beets a day, during campaign"
of 100 days, each ton producing an
average of 165 pounds Of sugar or a
total output of 4,950,000 pounds.
This is probably considerably over the
average mark, because it has not re.
suited in the past 10 this country.
But even on this basis it would take
500 beet sugar factories to produce
the requisite 4,OO0,0O0,0OO pounds of
sugar for home consumption.
The average beet yield is proba.
bly, II tons to the acre, often more,
and sometimes less, but on this basis
it would take 25 acres of beets per
day, or 2500 acres, to supply one fac.
tory during "campaigu, say 2,000,.
QUO acres per annUm to give us sugar
enough for our own supply.
The labor in a factory on ton of
beets is from S1.50 to S157 per ton,
or, say, $3.50 per day; $4,000 in a
campaign in one factory, to say moth.
ing of the amount paid out for labor
in the field to grow the beets. In
800 factories it would be $50 900, ,000
The coal, coke, limestone, bags and
oil, per ton of beets worked cost
S1.37, OF SAIL per day; 41,100 10 a
Campaign" and in 800 factories s32,
$4,000.
The freight on the material is "a
cents per ton of heets, or S72 per day,
$1,000 in campaign" and for 800
factories our railways would receive
in transportation charges $780,.
900.
These are some of the considera.
tions which enter into the question Of
producing our own sugar, giving EN-.
ployment in our own country to la.
Dor in divers directions, and espec.
tally in the coal, coax and limestone
industries. American Economist.
