SUBSCRIPTION FOR HOME.
STAR RECEIVES $500 FOR THE
INCURABLES.
President Dole Tells What the Com
mittee Intends to Do-Will Again Try
to Get Kalihi Heights Lot.

Five hundred dollars for the home for
incurables has been promised to The
Star by one party, who believes in not
letting the right hand know what the
left doeth, and the name is therefore
Withheld, but the money is there on call.
This is a practical answer to the APP
peals made through The Star in favor
of the home. 1t is a good beginning,
and should be followed up.
1t is understood that other subscrip-
tions are available, as well as certain
special funds. Among the latter is a
part of the money subscribed for the
Victorian annex to the hospital.
President Dole, seen about the matter
this morning, gave out the following
facts concerning the project:
Another effort will be made by the
committee to secure from the Bishop
estate the tract of six or more acres on
the ridge back of the insane asylum.
If the minds of the trustees can be
changed, the plot would be more salts
factory to the committee than any other
in sight.
Failing there, the committee will ap-
ply to the Government for a small tract
on Nuuanu ridge, and will doubtless
get it. The disadvantage of this place
is that considerable valuable residence
property is contiguous to it.
The committee has lost none of its
! enthusiasm and determination in the
matter as a result of the refusal of the
Bishop estate to grant the lot first
chosen. On the other hand more deter
mined effort will be put forward.
1t is purposed to put up a main build
ing containing sixteen beds and ample
lanai arrangements. Cottages will be
added as they may be required. Doc
tors and nurses will be detailed to care
for the patients. The cost of fitting UP
the place will be something like $4,000
to $4,000. This win be paid by private
subscription. 1t is the purpose of the
committee to lay before the Legislature
at it's next session a proposal that the
Government pay the running expenses
of the institution by appropriation. In
view of popular feeling on the subject
it is believed that this idea will be en-

PREPARING FOR OBsEQUIEs OF
QUEEN DOwAGER.
Large Force of Ladies Fitting up the
Bier and Neighborhood-Bod to Lie
in State From Tomorrow.

About forty ladies and a retinue of
workmen are engaged today decorating
Kawaiahao church for the events of to-
morrow, Saturday and Sunday. Mrs.
s. G. Allen, Mrs Neumann, the Misses
Ward, the Misses Vida and others are
at the head of the COMMITTEES.
The church today is only partially
decorated. but an idea of how it will
look can be gathered. From the CEN
tral row of pews i'm the nave to the back
of the building is a dense forest of dec
oration, including floral pieces and ever
greens. At the immediate center. the
most conspicuous object in that quar-
ter, is the steel-gray casket. On either
side are rows of beautiful kahiis. Be
tween them and the casket are the ka-
hill bearers, four on each side going
through their solemn program.
The watches are changed every two
hours and are kept up day and night.
In regular time the kahils from either
side are brought together and are then
passed down in opposite directions.
This is so perfectly timed that every
kahili moves at once.
On the two sides of the casket and
at the head of 1t, are the royal tabu
sticks. At the head is crown worked
in yellow flowers and farther back is u
harp of the same material. Numerous
other beautiful flower pieces appear in
the same neighborhood set at various
elevations. The arches are set out on
eithed side, and not in front as was the
case on the occasion of the funeral of
the late Princess Kaiulanl
BY tomorrow potted palms and ferns
will be thckly distributed about the
walls of the building and the gallery
will be decorated. An immense lot of
flowers and evergreens are already on
hand and more is constantly pouring
in.
The body of the late queen dowager
will lie in state from noon tomorrow to
| IL O'Clock Saturday night

DESERTED HIS WIFE.

II. V. Arnold, formerly a draughts-
man for the Honolulu Iron Works, is
said to have slowed away on the Coptic,
leaving a wife in distressed circum-
stances, and number of creditors with
no prospect of getting their money. His
wife is a young woman, scarcely more
than a girl, part Portuguese, whom he
married only recently. Arnold was for
merly electrician at the opera house.
After he was discharged from the Ho-
nolulu Iron Works a short time ago he
got up hui which secured some con-
tracts for putting up 4th of July decora-
tions. From this source Arnold secur-
ed some money just before he left the
Islands.

RESCUED FROM soUALoR.
Three Chinese Children Taken by the
Iar Salvation Army.

WAIMEA, Kauai, June 27.-The Sal
walton Army people have rescued three
Chinese children from very squalid and
neglected circumstances. The eldest of
the three, is a girl twelve years old. The
other two are boys, considerably young
4er. Their father is said to be a con-
tirmed opium fiend and gambler, who
neglected his family. The mother, in
desperation, committed suicide some
months ago, by taking poison. Since
her death, the father sold the daughter
to another Chinaman for $35 it is said,
and after spending the money in opium
and gambling, tried to get the girl back.
Ensign Sharp of the Salvation Army,
learning of the matter, took the chill
dren, and they are being cared for at
the army headquarters in Waimea.
They were filthy and ragged from neg
lect when rescued, and the clothing
they wore was burned as a precaution-
airy measure, new clothing being pro-
vided through the kindness of the peo-
pie of the place, who fully sustained
Ensign Sharp in her proceedings.

BETTER THAN EVER.

The show at the Orpheum last night
was pronounced by those who attended
as being better than ever before. The
comedy sketch A Birthday Surprise is
a roaring farce, and the cake walk was
very good. A large audience encourag-
ed the actors to put forth their best
efforts. The new songs by Marion and
Barton called for big applause. The
same program tonight and all lovers of
fun should not miss attending.

MORE oF THEM USED.

There are probably more Singer sew
ing machines used in the United States
than of acy other one make. This Is a
very excellent guarantee that they are
one Of the very best machines. The
points of merit are strength, durabil-
ity, easy running and simple construc-
ton. Very little mechanism to get out
of order makes repair bills small.

CONTAINED NO OPIUM.
Suspected Imports Were Subjected to a
Chemical Analysis.

Some time ago it was reported to the
customs authorities from Maui that ten
barrels of some sort of molasses like
compound, had been received there,
which was regarded as suspicious, on
account of it's resemblance to opium
The matter was investigated. The
consignee was very frank with the GUS
toms officials and afforded full oppor-
tunity for investigation; but said it
was a compound used in boilers to pre-
vent them from scaling. 1t was made
to order, after an analysis of the water
used, had shown exactly what was re-
quired in the compound. The explana-
ton was satisfactory, but to put the
matter beyond doubt, samples were
sent here for analysis. Mr.. Shorey, the
chemist of the Board of Health has just
reported the result of his analysis,
showing that there is no opium or
compound of opium in the material.

An Unjust Decision.

The pension claim of John Erb, Sr.
now an inmate of the County Inflrm-
airy, has been rejected It was based
on the fact of the death of his son
John Erb, Jr., late of Co. II, 1st Ohio
Cavalry.
John Erb Jr., contracted disease OF
The lungs in the service. The partlcu-
lar service was ithe pursuit of JEFF Da-
Wis the ex-prcsident o fthe Confeder-
acy, in the spring of 1866, Two of the
comrades of his son testified to the
fact of his contracting the cold on his
lungs in that expedition. Their evl.
dence stands unimpeached and indeed
is unimpeachable, for they stand well
as truthful and honest citizens.
The doctor who attended the son
testified that the was a sound healthy
man when he enlisted, and when he
came back from the army in Septem-
ber 1865 he was uffering from lung
| trouble. He never was able to leave
the house after that and when they
wanted another doctor to see him had
to take him on a bed in wagon and
drive to the doctors house. The son
died four months after he was dis
charged from the army. The doctor
who waited on him testified that he
died of lung disease.
The physician, however died before
the case got into the hands of the
special examiner and his evidence was
set aside.
TIL law of 1890 was intended by Con-
gress to be literally construed so that
the reproach to the nation of veterans
of the War Of the Union being in
the poor houses of the country should
be removed. 1t was not intended that
a technicality of the law should allow
a dependent father of a soldier to re-
main in the poor house. A law can be
wholly abrogated in a department by
constituting it. One would rather have
the opportunity of constituting a law
than making it, either for purposes of
making it effective or of annuling it.
So with this dependant act so called
In some of its best features it has
been construed away and rendered non
effective. The old man Should have
been given the benefit of the doubt
and allowed the small pittance intend
ed for the relief of just such cases as
this. If allowed, the twelve dollars
per month would enable the old man
to live comfortably and in respectable
manner and not be compelled to un-
dergo the disgrace of being kept in the
County House the balance of his days.
The case has been appealed to the
Honorable Secretary of THE Interior.
