A WONDERFUL WOMAN ORATOR

The visit OF Rev. Anna Howard
Shaw TO this city on Eriday last was
an event which will long be remem-
bered by the people who met the lady
In person or heard her address at the
opera house in the evening. Her talk
was most pleasing and replete in
strong argument, noble sentiment
pathos. wit and sarcasm. II was
easy to discover that her long asso-
citation with the brightest minds in
the ranks OF woman suifragists in the
United States and in foreign coun-
tries has made her a shining light In
the cause she represents She may
be act down as being a philosopher
as well as an orator. She first made
a study OF conditions relating to wo-
men with a view Of promoting their
welfare and to this end she took up
the problem connected with the pres
ent and future conditions OF the
mothers and daughters OF America
In an article written for Harper's
Bazar published In the September
issue OF that journal she says that
with that purpose in view she enter
ed the ministry. And believing that
every great principle of life has a
spiritual basis and that justice and
equality must reach their flower and
perfection in the Christian religion
as exemplifled by Christ, In this she
was thoroughly disappointed, as she
says;
"l soon learned that the belief in
woman's sub-ordination had it's
source In religious dogmas, and that
the church, whose very existence de-
pended upon the LOYALTY OF woman.
must first be purged OF It's pagan
conception OF womans iuieriority
and mans Inherent right to usurp
the powers OF the Infinite as the
Master,
Though discouraged and disap-
pointed, per@vered through my
theological studies In the meantime
doing missionary work among less
fortunate and needy women In this
practical school Of active service I
cav that there was little that could

HURRY UP THE GOOD ROAD TO
THE SEA.

Josephine county people are thor
oughly in earnest in their efforts to
build a hard surface road from
Grants Pass to the California line on
the way to Crescent City They are
not only in earnest but have quite
few miles of the road completed.
II we can induce the California coun-
ty OF Del Norte to commence work
on Its end OF the road II will great
ly encourage our people to
push forward and do their part on
this important highway to the sea
Crescent City people have everything
to gain and nothing to lose by bullC-
ing their part Of the road and We
are glad to learn that steps have
been taken to commence the work in
the near future.
II should be understood that the
building OF this road to the sea also
means much to the Rogue river val
ley. II places us within few hours
OF Crescent City and enables us to
connect with both freight and pas
Benger steamers at that point eth
er south to San Francisco or north
to Portland and the Puget Sound
country This would open markets
to us which are now, on account OF
high freight rates, not within our
reach. Such highway would be Of
great advantage to every farmer and
business man In this county by add
Ing largely to their income. The
Grants Pass Commercial club can be
OF service II II will appoint a commit
tee on this subject so as to induce
our southern neighbors to push for
ward this important enterprise.

AUTOMOBILE AND
CAR IN SMASH UP

4 smash-up caused by q peculiar
accident on Nuuanu late last night, or
early this morning has been kept SO
carefully guarded that neither the po-
lice nor the street car company have
been able to. learn the names of those
concerned. 1t appears that an auto
mobile was running out Nuuanu street
and had reached that narrow portion
just below the cemetery, when it
turned out to avoid the car, which was
coming along at a rapid pace. In
turning, the driver struck the curb,
which is close to the rails. and the
wheels of his machine were thrown
back directly in the path of the troll
ley. The auto was badly damaged,
but managed to limp off without as
sistanee. The car, No. "a. was unin.
jured. although it was Jared off the
track. No one. so far as is now known
70 the police and Rapid Transit Com.
pany, was hurt. 49,.

IN Response to letter from the
superintendent Of the Fred Baldwin
Home fof Old Men. on Maui. il which
II was stated that the home could &C
commodhte about forty old white men
who had arrived at the age where
they could no longer work. and who
had no friends to look toward for aid,
the Associated Charities. of which
Mrs. A c. Jordan Is manager, has
started an active campaign 70 secure
such old men who live IN 8onolnln
who are in need OF home where they
may spend their last days.
The work has been very slow so
far, although last week there were
two men sent to the home, and this
week another. At present the case or
an old man Who has neither friends
or funds Is being Investigated. and he
will probably be sent to the home dur
Ing the early part OF next week.
Mrs. Jordan made the statement
that there was one more home needed
IN the Hawaiian Islands, and this to
be for old couples. Thsre are sew
eral cases In the city OF Old couples

Plan AF00I F|)R
new HOTEL
BUILDING HERE

Plans are now on foot for the build
ing Of new hotel for Honolulu On
the Cooke and Allen property. oppo-
site Thomas Square. providing the
site can be secured for this purpose.
At meeting Of the promotion com
mittee yesterday It was reported the
Allen homestead ID for sale and that Il
was being looked toward as an ideal
site for a hotel and much better II
the Cooke homestead. which adioins
Ift. could also be secured These two
properties extend from Beretania
street to Kinau. and practically occu-
py all the space bounded BY Victoria,
Kinau, KapioIani and BeFetgnia
streets. The price. as stated yester-
day, which is wanted for the Allen
property is $4,000. This. however,
is believed to be an error.
4 The promotion committee Is still
backing Its statement that by 1916 it
will be necessary for Honolulu to be
well equipped with boarding houses
and hotels, or else the tourist trade
will suffer severe blow, and the
COuuu1llbcc ID dfWoIo cAktuuotnotEE 2 ~
its support OF any project for 3 new
boarding house or hotel. 1t Is ex-
pected that Honolulu will receive the
greater number of tourists who will
90 20 see the big fair In 1915. and who
will travel farther. II Is also Of the
opinion that IN the next three years
the tourist trade will grow to unusu-
ally large proportions. and in order
to accommodate the increasing traf-
fie the Matson Navigation Company
will build two new lines, each of
which viii accommodate $50 first
class passengers.
1t is hoped that the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company will add another
boat, and that the plan for the five
day boat between San Francisco and
Honolulu, which was rumored some
time ago, win be put into effect How
ever, the latest official news from that
company is that the plans to add new
vessels to the line have been ADAM
doned.

lowing directly on the heels of the
recommendation made few days
ago to Governor Frear by DR.. ]. s. b.
Pratt, in his report on the big CON
yention of physicians at Washington,
I'D. c., are directly in line with the
opinion expressed by the president
of the board of health.
This is that If Honolulu is to have
a guaranty of immunity from the
black plague when the tide Of COM
merce reaches its full growth, follow
ing. the opening of the Panama Canal,
precaution must be taken at once to
establish quarantine against rats
along tue harbor front. that will be as
nearly perfect as It can be made.
Dr., Hobby president Of the soci-
ETY., made the opening address. and
papers were read by Dr.. e s. Good.
hue, on Mycetoma, and BY DR.. W. G.
