British bark Eudora, Captain Thomas
Atkinson, which has arrived in Ia
coma from Honolulu, approached Cape
Flattery before she finally effected
time she would be met by heavy
southeastern gales and forced back
to sea, until captain and crew were
weary and disguised.
I'VE made fine run of eighteen
days from Honolulu to within sight
of the cape said Captain Atkinson,
"and we were well inside the light
ship when the southeast gale struck
us with the suddenness of shot.
We were forced to put back to sea,
and every time we came back the
same thing would occur, until I got
sick and tired of turning the ship
about. 1t was twenty-four days after
we sighted Cape Flattery before we
finally got in. Off the coast we would
come into a west wind. then, when
the ship had turned about and was
again approaching Flattery, along
would come the southeast gale and
back we would go.

seas. We were fully thirty feet above
the water, but the seas were so high
that they came over us from one side
and then another After five at
stempts l held the ship off the coast

In spits of her experience with the
storms, Captain Atkinson brought the
Eudora through without the loss of
a stitch of canvas, nor was the vessel
damaged in any way from the seas.
The Eudora is under charter to the
Portland Mills Company and will load
at the Puget Sound mills. She will
load about 5000 tons of wheat for the
United Kingdom. ..... =
The schooners Alice Cooke, from
Honolulu, and II. d. Bendixsen, from
Kailui, entered the strait in company
with the Eudora.

PLAN A HOME
FOR YOUNGSTERS

At meeting of the Humane So
ciety held last Wednesday morning.
| it was proposed to erect a $50, 900
home for children, the proposal being
presented by Mrs, Sanford B. Dole
The idea is TO frame a bill for intro
duetion in the legislature, in which
the government will be asked to APP
propriate the sum necessary for the
construction of such a building. Such
building will fulfill longfelt want
in the way of suitable institution
for orphans or children who have par,
ents who are unfit to bring. them up
in proper manner.
At present, all other institutions
throughout the city for this purpose,
it was reported, are filled to their
capacity. The Salvation Home and
the Kafihi Orphanage cannot accom-
modate any more children, and the
Castle Home, at Waikiki, provides
only for children of certain nationali.
ties, and 1t is the opinion of the mem.
bers of the society that a new home
should be erected by the government.
Special humane officer. Miss Rose
Dawson, in the reading of her report.
stated that number of cases of
cruelty to animals had been attended
to during the past month. and also
the cases of seven children. She
also stated that she visited the dis
triets of Waialua and Wahiawa and
found conditions satisfactory in both
places.
A special report of the agent of
the society in regard to the dance
hall ordinance. who has made various
observations during the past month,
may be the result of these observa-
tions II is thought that the ordin-
|ance is not as yet well under way and
some changes in the ordinance may
be recommended

Mrs. Harry Stevens of Sabathis. a

waste, and the hens gobbled the lot
That was the answer.
The most staid and respectable of
the biddies were soon lettering
around as if on springs, making vain
stabs at imaginary worms, while the
ROSTERS strutted unsteady about
and crowed hilariously. One hen
died from the jag.
