RED CROSS ROOMS.
Handwriting Ladies Attending to the
Wants of the Soldiers.

At the Red Cross headquarters on
Nuuanu street a busy scene is being
enacted. In one room scores of the
soldiers are writing letters and in ait
other scores are being provided with
hot tea, fresh bread and butter, bread
and jam, etc.
"We don't aim to give the men a
square meal" said Mrs. Jordan this
afternoon, "but just good hot cup of
tea and little lunch. We are just
rushed to death today. We have had
so many here that it has been hardly
possible to get water heated fast
enough to make tea, and how the men
enjoy good hot cup of tea.
"Oh, yes, we have plenty of help,
Mrs. II. M. Sewall has been here part
of the morning, as well as Mrs. S. NJ
Damon, Mrs. Fuller and Mrs. Hattie
Brown. Mrs. Wilkinson and the two
Misses Jordan are helping now, and
others will be along this afternoon.
do we need anything? Well, we
have bought a large quantity of tea,
but we would be glad to have fresh
butter, jams and iellies, sandwiches
and cakes. Cakes don't last long,
however. Anything will be acceptable
in the way of cooked food"

EXERCISING THE TROOPS.

The City of Puebla has been brought
over from the Oceanic wharf to the
wharf near the boat landing. All the
troops on her were brought off today
for drill and exercise. The Fourteenth
infantry came off i'm two divisions, the
first division drilling from 10 to II
o'clock. and the second division from
II to 10 o'clock. This did not give
much more than opportunity to bring
the men off the ship, form them in
companies and make a short march
through the streets and back again
The main purpose, however, was not
drill, but exercise.
