THE womEN's COMMITTEE.

The question Is asked occasionally
whether women can help In any way
in the work of the Young Mems Chris

affirmative. All well managed asso-

pointed by the president of the asso-

and continues for year. AT the end
of the year they can be reappointed
or others appointed in their stead in
accordance with their own wishes and
ability to serve. Usually the ladies

A. correspondent recently sent the
New York Sun the following inquiry:

sir-As one Of your regular readers
and occasional admirers beg to ask
you for a candid straightforward an
swer TO the following brief question:
DO you consider Funston's success

gerry and disguise. an action Of which
Americans can feel proud?
or is II an action 6ssgraceful and
oowardly, and one of which every
American must feel ashamedY
John A. saltwater.
To which the Sun promptly made
reply as follows.
ITO which we reply candidly and
straghtforwardly that in our opinion
no American need feel ashamed OF
Funston or OF Funstons achievement.
His methods we're legitimate and
within the rules OF war and consistent

stretch Of land in progress in a short
time The Oklahomans are earnestly
and eargerly pushing their claims to
statehood. and they confidently ex-

port Of their claim to admission, they
are certainly entitled to the boon.
The annals of Oklahoma are brief

formation began, ana siuce then Ok,
lahoma has grown into a aourishing,
enterprising up to date common
wealth of American citizens.
Oklahoma territory comprises 3S,-
$50 square miles. It is larger than
Massachusetts,, Rhode Islnnd, Con

than Pennsylvania. The population Of
the territory is now about 100000, and
It Is rapidly increasing It's climate

among the finest in America, and in

is Unsurpassed Among it's products
are wheat, cotton, fruits, corn. rye,

lands produce from rs to 40 bushels
per acre, oat lands from 50 TO llO

the Union can wheat, corn and cotton,

BIG PuRCHAsE OF LuMBER.

SEATTLE, Washington, January &c
Puget sound lumber men are greatly
interested in a contract which is tobe
let next week by Major Ruhlen, local
quartermaster of the United States
army, for the furnishing of 100000 feet
of lumber. The lumber, as has been
told in the Post-Intelligencer is requir-
ed for the use of the army in the con-
struction of barracks in the Philippines
and is to be shipped as soon as possible
to Manila.
The bids will be opened by Major
Ruhlen next Saturday at noon. 1t is
said that certain lumber mills at Port
land have asked for and rec aivei sLe-
cifications on the contract with view
of competing with Puget sound mills.
Inasmuch as the mills on the Sound
have heretofore furnished large quanti-
ties of lumber to the quartermaster's
department in competition with outside
concerns, little fear is entertained that
the contract will be taken away from
the Sound.
The material required is boards and
dimension stuff. 1t will probably be
shipped in two lots

Some Facts.

So Much Is Said

And done in advertising to mislead
the public that it is hard to pick out
the grain from the chaff, Everybody
says he's got the biggest stock-that
his goods are better made and that he
sells at the lowest prices.
Here are few facts that our brother
clothiers in Honolulu can't dispute:
This is the only store in Honolulu
that sells ready-to-wear clothing eX-
clusively. We MUST have variety and
sizes to fit you, because we have no
(big profit made-to-oPder department
to fall back on.
We have two stores-each filled to
overlooking with bright, new merchan-
discovery inch of space crowded. No
other stores in Honolulu use more than
one store for sale purposes.
We buy every stitch of our own
goods for spot cash. We certainly
ought to own our goods at bottom
figures, and we only grow bigger by
selling that way.
Nothing is too good for our trade.
Suits this season as fine as cloth can
be woven-up to $25.00.
This motto rules the business. If
you buy it here and it goes wrong, ii
is made right and your money back
! if you want it.
