Work of Women Nurses.

women nurses. Until one has had cxper-

American warships Arrive at Para

LONDON, May 23.-Lloyd's agent at
Para, Brazil, under to.dsy's date,
cables that three American men Of.
war arrived there at 3 o'clock this
morning from Rio de Janeiro. The
only American warships known to
be on their way from Rio de Janeiro
are the Oregon, the Marietta and the
Nictheroy. The Oregon was last
reported officially by the Lloyds at
Bahia, Brazil, on May 9th, and she
is believed to have proceeded at
midnight the same date. The dis
tance from Bahia to Para is about
1900 miles, roughly speaking, and
if Lloyd's report is correct the
Oregon and her consorts have been
steaming very slowly. Other reports
have placed the Oregon at Barba-
does and even nearer still to the
United States.

Prince Cupid then handed the
flag to Captain Glass who, on re-
ceiving it, made the followi ng reply:
PRINCE DAVID AND PRINCE CUPID.
1t is with pleasure that / accept
for the Charleston the beautiful flag
which you present to her to-day and
| assure you that every officer and
man whose duty will be performed
under its bright stars appreciates
profoundly the kindly sentiments
you have expressed for our ship
and the nation which we serve. This
occasion is new proof OF the
friendship we'll understood by all
men Of our profession who have
visited the beautiful harbor of Ho-
nolulu and found here welcome as
warm as they could have expected
in a port of the United States.
The people Of our country have,
from the time the Islands first be-
came known them, felt a deep in
terest in the welfare and progress
OF the Hawaiians, and many Amer
leans have devoted their lives to
unselfish efforts to promote these
ends.
The service rendered to your
family by the "Charleston," on the
occasion to which you have referred,
and which have prompted your
beautiful gift at this time, was due
to the wish OF our people to show
their sympathy with your country
in it's bereavement and to draw
closer the bonds OF affection already
existing.
1t was doubly appropriate that
our people and the men of our
service should render all honor to
the name and memory OF Kalakaua,
whose efforts had been 80 markedly
successful in bringing about closer
relations between the two countries,
and whose kindness had endeared
him to all American Naval Officers.
| trust that | may be permitted to
say that the gift of our national
ensign to an American man-of-war
at the present time is of peculiar
interest, as indicating the sympathy
felt by Hawaiians with the cause in
which we are now engaged, and
should it be our good fortune to
carry that flag into action no man
who sees it waving over him will
fail to be encouraged in doing his
duty by thoughts OF the friends
who presented it and who may be
sure it will never be shown save in
the cause of justice and honor,
1t will be- my pleasant duty to
inform the Honorable Secretary of
the Navy Of my country of this gift
and Of the good wishes with which
1T is accompanied.
Executive officer Blocklinger
called for three cheers for the flag
which were given with hearty will,
as to the strains OF the American
National Anthem it slowly rose to
its place OF honor. Three still more
hearty cheers we're given for Hawaii

Kong and Short Haul Clause Abrogatetl
for the Benefit "f American Lines.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 23.-The inter-
state commerce commission has sus.
pended the operation OF the long and
short haul clause of the interstate com.
merce act inv favor of railroad lines in
the United States in competition with
tho Canadian Pacific railroad, as to
passenger business between points i'll
the province of Manitoba aud contlg.
uous territory and points upon the De.
troit and St. Clair rivers, and easterly
thereof in the Dominion of Canada and
in that portion OF the New England
states reached directly by the rails of
the Grand Trunk railroad. 1t is under.
stood that tho Canadian Pacific IS now
materially cutting passenger rates not
only between New ENGLAND and Can.
adian points but to St. Paul aud the
Pacific coast. In view of this fact it is
said that the American roads will ASK
the Interstate conn erce commission to
extend the scope Of this relief SO as to
take in these additional competing
points, conditions being similar.
