WASHINGTON, April 1s.-Secretary
of the Navy Meyer has just announced
himself in favor of a fleet of battleships
on the Pacific. This COMFORTS entirely
with the view of President Taft. It
means that the influence of the admin
istration will be in that direction and
for construction program to that end.
1t means that the navy yards at Bre
merton and Mare Island must be fur
Their enlarged and improved, even with
the expeditions construction of the big
new naval station at Pearl Harbor. For
Bremerton and Mare Island and Pearl
Harbor must become as familiar to the
country in a navy connection as Ports
mouth, and Charleston and Brooklyn.
The emphasis that the Secretary Of
the Navy gives to this matter is par
tieularly significant at this time. It
goes without saying that the admins
tration will not divide the big feet
now in the North Atlantic The best
naval authorities have plainly shown
navy strength, unless the navy is SO
large that one division of it is stronger
than any probable opponent in a given
quarter. But the government is build
ing a number of new and especially
powerful ships and the prospect is that
enough of these can be assembled with
in couple of years to make very
formidable Pacific fleet. It viii be
maintained permanently upon the Pa
cific Ocean, visiting at San Francisco,
Los Angeles, Seattle and Honolulu with
the same frequency that ibattleships on
the North Atlantic now put in at Bos-
ton, Portland and New York, and go
ing to Bremerton, Mare Island and
Pearl Harbor for supplies and repairs
This means much for the army work
men and mechanics at those localities

NOTHING GIVEN
FOR CHARITIES
Local Society Is Neglected in
the Appropriation
Bill.

If the Associated Charities is going
to continue its work which has been
of undoubted benefit to the whole Ter
ritory, it will be only through contri
buttons secured from private sources.
The Legislature, in it's zeal for economy
in the administration of the govern
ment, dropped out the item for bien-
NAL appropriation of $4,000, and moth
ing will be received by the society
from the Territory safter June 80, the
last day of the current biennial period.
The fight against an appropriation
for the Associated Charities in the Leg
islature, was based partly on the idea
of economy and partly upon the belief
that the society was a county affair and
should be maintained by contributions
from the City and County of Homo
lulu.
1t was pointed out at that time that
Honolulu has been port of entry for
the destitute from all sections of the
Territory, and that the help that was
extended to people in need, in ma
jority of cases, went to those who were
recent arrivals from the other counties
and found themselves in Honolulu
without sufficient means of support.
Nothing for Charity.
The Legislature of 1907 was quite
generous in its appropriations for hos
pitfalls and charitable institutions, in
marked contrast to the spirit that pre-
vailed in the session of 1909, even with
allowances for the carrying out of the
plan for the placing of more revenue
and financial responsibility upon the
counties.
The Queen S Hospital received bien-
NAL appropriation of $4,000; the Ka-
piolani Maternity Home, 1920; the
Hilo Hospital, $4,000; the Malulani Hos
pital, Maui, $4,000; the Lihue Hospital,
Kauai, $4,000; the Waimea Hospital,
Kauai, $4,000; Eleele Hospital, Kauai,
$1,000, and the aid to the Associated
Charities, $2400-all of which does not
appear in the appropriation bill as pass
ed at the last session. The three ap-
preparations for the Queen s Hospital,
the Hilo Hospital and the Malulani Hos
pital were approved by the Legislature
but vetoed by Governor Frear.

Trouble has developed in the Chinese
Imperial School, which was opened
with much ceremony in San Francisco
two months ago by Leong Ching Kwai,
the delegate of the Imperial Board of
Education ut Picking. One of the teach
ers imported from China for the pur-
pose of instrneting the San Francisco
Chinese in the ancient forms and cere-
monies has been suspended for indulg-
ing in the modern American custom of
ciandestinely taking the young daugh-
ter of Chinese photographer buggy
riding. Investigation of the affair has
led to other expressions of dissatisfac-
ton and the methods of the local Con-
sui General in conducting the school
are being discredited.

The estate of the late Major Frank
Mclaughlin, who committed suicide by
shooting last year at his home at Santa
Cruz, is being assailed by Miss Anna
Bustreede, who claims to have loaned
him large sums of money. Much scan
dial has been injected into the case, by
the publication of many love letters
written to the plaintiff by Mclaughlin,
and the mention of number of promi-
nent men in connection with the case.

Manila Bay
Battlesmoke Impressions.
By Captain C. P. Rees, e. S. N.

At break of dawn Manila Bay
A sheet of Hmpid water lay,
Extending twenty miles away.
Twenty miles from shore to shore,
AS creeping on squadron bore,
AS squadron never moved before.
Majestic in its hidden might,
It passed Corregidor at night,
Inspired to battle for the right.
And grandly on tn Olympia led
Six ships--as grisly darkness fed
With battle flags at each masthead.
The Baltimore and Raleigh true,
The Petrol, Concord, Boston too,
Their flags of glory proudly flew.
AS early daylight broke upon
The bay-before the purpling sun
Was seen the flash Of opening gun!
Then every second heard the roar,
OF shell and shrapnel bursting DER
Our brave, undaunted Commodore!
s'Hold our fret" he calmly said,
AS from the bridge he bravely led
To death or glory on aheadl
And from his lips or from his hand
But one direction, one command
Follow the flagship by the land.''
Full twenty minutes slowly crept
Ere lightning from our turrets leapt,
And pent-up hell no longer slept!
For rang q voice that moment dire,
Triumphant valor to inspire,
When you are ready, Gridley, Firep
And rified reasoners, pointed fair,
Delivered instant Judgment there
In thunder thro' the riven air.
Montojo's fleet dozen strong,
Insatiate in naughty wrong,
Was swept by awful fire along.
Explosions wild destruction brought
Mid flames that mighty havoc wrought
AS either side in fury fought.
So back and forth, in angry might,
The Stars and Stripes waved on the figh'
Mid bursting shells in deadly fight.
The Spanish decks with dead were
strewn,
Their guns on shore were silenced soon
Their flags were down ere flush of noon
Their ships, their batteries on the shore
Were gone in flame and crimson gore
Their loss, a thousand men or morel
Damned on the fleet that Dewey led
A miracle, while Spaniards bled;
For on our side was not one deadi
The battle of Manila Bay
From mind shall never pass away
Nor deeds OF glory wrought that day;
For mid that battles awful roar
The Spanish pride, to rise no more,
Was humbled by Our Commodore.
And Freedom isles in Orient sea
Shall monuments eternal be
OF DEWEY DEATHLEsS VICTORY

too large, however, or the work OF
moving will be likely to be neglected.
A lawn is not hard to make. A little
work leveling and preparing fine
seed bed and liberal application Of
blue grass seed that will grow will
almost certainly result in good lawn.
Do not make the common mistake Of
planting trees too close to the house.
They detract from the appearance and
make the house close and stuffy. The
opposite extreme should be avoided
also. A few trees about the edges Of
the lawn furnish grateful shade and
provide a f1anking for the picture Of
which the house is the central figure.
The decorative value of shrubs is Of
ten not appreciated as much as it
should be. A climbing rosebush over
the porch or few dwarf varieties in
out Of the way corners will add to the
color and beauty Of the yard. There
are many other Towering shrubs, such
as snowballs, syringias and lilacs, that
can be used to fill in empty spaces and
corners.
A row or two Of hard naples or elms
along the driveway, with thick ever
green windbreak to the north, will fin
ish the supply Of necessary trees un.
less there are corners or bare spaces
about the yards that will b. better for
q tree or two.

FIGHTING THE LOSING FIGHT.
Moving Appeal to the Successful IN
Life from One Who Knows
the Underworld.

know woman who writes. She
writes gayly, blithely, helpfully. Thou
sands regard her as the apotheosis of
easy success and envy her position
and the happiness which must accom-
pany her supremacy. Yet I happen to
know that the one she loves best on
earth is dying lingering death of an
illness which neither money nor hui
man skill may even subdue the pain
thereof
She is both nurse and breadwinner,
and doing the work of two is robbing
her of health and strength, yet not
one complaint ever passes her lips.
With her back against the wall she
fights her losing fight, which, though
won each day, yet loses, loses to her
all that she loves best Such courage
as is in her little slender frame and
blaZes from her dauntless eyes! Yet
her success-even though she daily
wins her losing fght-brings tears to
my eyes.
The woman who scrubs for me,
earning her dollar and a half a day
on her knees, is kneeling, not only to
her work, but before an altar where
on lies the crippled child she address
He can never grow up-she must
know this in her heart, even though
we talk Of what he will do when he
grows srong and well-he is failing
though her lips will speak brave lies.
He will live, he is eating better, his
lips have more color, his eyes are
brighter! Yet as she lifts him in her
arms at night she feels that his little
frame is daily growing lighter and his
feeble clutch on life is nightly grow,
ing looser. She talks to me-this
poor mother! this brave, losing fight
er!-of the time when he will walk,
well knowing that the first step this
poor little crippled feet will take will
be in another world. Oh, the poor
souls on this earth who fight blindly
against the ever-dancing, grimly stalk
ing Death!
You who are successful in that you
are not fighting your battle of life
against hopeless disease or a nearby
approaching death; you whose wage
is equal to your necessities; you who
lay by a little each month for a rainy
day fund, or you who count your
wealth by millions, will you not give
the right hand of fellowship, share
your sympathy, or In some manner
cheer the heart of some proud, cour-
ageous, silent-lipped, losing fighter of
your acquaintance grip the hand Of
some man struggling with increasing
expense and dwindling wage-write
a note of gratitude to some one whose
work has inspired you?
Best of all, won't you pause long
enough each day to bestow helpful
thought on the great and noble army
of losing fighters in this world?-

Where Wasps Protect Birds.

There are birds in the swamps Of
Venezuela, known as caciques, that
build their nests in close proximity to
a dangerous species of wasp in order
to avail themselves of the insects pro.
lection from the constant menace Of
the jungle. G. William Beebe ex.
plored this region, and, with his wife,
has written his account of it for the
May number of Harper's Magazine.
He discovered the nests of the ca.
ciques close to the formidable wasps'
nests, the two creatures living in har.
mony. One sting from these wasps
would kill a bird, and several stings
throw man into severe fever.
Hence the insects are dreaded by man
and beast, and the caciques find their
neighborhood a safe one. Whether the
wasps cannot or will not sting their
neighbor birds is not known.

Most farm homes are very poorly
lighted. \ kerosene lamp is dirty,
smells bad and does not give very
much light. A gasoline lamp is much
better. Eest Of all is the acetylene gas
system. After this is once installed it
can be operated cheaply and will fur
nish an abundant supply of light.
The water system is another thing in
which f:ir:nhouses are behind those in
the city. There is scarcely house in
a town of any size but that is provid-
ed with water and sewage systems. In
the country these are the exception
rather than the rule, yet they can be
put in at a small cost.
An air tight tank in the cellar is
for farm water system, but is rather
expensive. The water can also be
drawn from the elevated tank at the
barn, if one is used there, the only dis
advantage in this case being that els
tern water cannot be used. On the
whole, the most satisfactory plan is to
have a small galvanized tank in the
attic. A little covering in the coolest
weather will keep it from freezing, and
a few minutes work with the cistern
pump each day will keep it filed.
BY having heater attached to the
furnace or to the kitchen stove and
making the proper connections hot and
cold water can be supplied to the bath
room, the wash room and anywhere
else that it is wanted.
The laundry room downstairs is the
place where the convenience Of such
a system will be appreciated most.
In this room the washing machine,
tubs, wringer and other utensils can
be kept. An opening in the floor con-
nected with the tile drain will carry
off the waste water, and hot and cold
water from upstairs will be always
on tap. Such a room, together with
the entire water system, can be fitted
up for less than 500.
Another convenience that can be in
stalled at small cost is a sewerage sys-
tenn. This can be connected with the
bathtub and sink, and with a small
additional expense another luxury that
is seldom found on the farm, an in
door closet, can be added. Drain
pipe we'll cemented at the joints
should be used in constructing the
sewer. The cheapest form of outlet
is the "septic tank" This is a small
underground tank divided into four
compartments, so arranged that when
the first Of these becomes full it will
overflow into the second, and so on
The tank should be covered and pro-
vided with a ventilator. The action
Of bacteria in the septic tank will de-
stroy all the solid matter, so that the
water which flows out the lower end
will be clear and have no objection
able odor. With an occasional clean
ing out such a tank will last forever
The house should be provided with
plenty of porcnes. These increase the
expense somewhat, but also add much
to the comfort and appearance of the
house. Vines trained up over them to
keep out the sun and screens to keep
out the flies make them still more
comfortable
Nothing adds more to the external
appearance of the house than a neat
lawn of ample size. Do not make it
