take place next month. Lieutenant
Powers is on duty at the new marine

HAWAIIAN WOMEN.

The native women of Hawaii have
always been prominent in affairs of
state, in latter days being limited by
circumstances to private influence, pu.
bile harangus, writing for the news
papers or lobbying, and this being con-
fined to limited number. In ancient
days rank of nobility descended from
the mother and the characters of many
chieftainesses shine out as beacon
lights in the history of the interesting
people. During the monarchy women
held most responsible positions, es-
pecially under the earlier kings, as re.
gents and premiers, and for some
years and until very lately a woman
versed in Hawaiian customs presided
as judge (and most dignified judge)
of the court of private ways and
water rights" What attitude the Ha-
waiian women as a whole would take
on the equal suffrage question cannot
be determined by vote; but l think
it fair to presume that they would
favor it.-Mrs Mary Dillingham; Frear,
wife of Gov. Frear Of Hawaii in the
Columbian.

REPORTS or DUN
AND BRADSTREET

Bradstreet New York; of July 81
contained the following:
Trade is still quiet as a whole, more
so indeed in some lines than was the
case last week and quieter even than
ordinarily at this midsummer period.
While conservatism still governs fu
ture operations by wholesalers and
jobbers, and retail or hnal distribution
is still disappointing, there are, how
ever, some movements which indicate
more optimistic outlook in leading
basic lines.
There are better reports as to the
demand for finished iron, and Steel
copper, some makes OF cotton goods,
based apparently on the advance in
raw materials and in raw wool,
Pig iron remains very quiet and
prices are still easy. Curtailment of
output does not appear to have gone
far enough to buoy quotations.
Business failures IN the United
States for the week ending July 2S
were 1913, against 215 lat week, 223 in

made it a success. 1t strengthened
the grip of popularity which those
jolly HawaiiaE have upon the resort
and its summer people. A striking fea-
ture of last nights entertainment was
the Americanism displayed at the
close of the fete.
The Hawaiians, with their instru-
ments, were seated in the grandstand
when the concert began. After several
selections they were rowed to the
stand in the lake where the concert
was continued Then they divided

There is no lack of evident that the
business situation is much better than
the recent depression in Wall street
would indicate. A notable improve
ment in business confidence took
place in the latter part of the week
due to the recovery in security prices
to advices that much needed rains
were falling in crop sections and to
the excellent quarterly report of the
leading steel producer.
Production is going on at a fair

not borne out by facts. Business is

from Mazatlan that the FL Dorado SUI.

The plantation is a large one, and the
mill thereon has a daily capacity of
800 or $50 tons of sugar. The South
