Widowed HAWAIIAN MOTHER GIVEN
help in Fight AGAINST BIG ODDS

How she struggled for months
against poverty and the ravages Of
tuberculosis, how she labored with
failing strength in one Of the local
laundries to provide food and clothing
for her two little girls, and how she
was finally compelled to give up be-
cause of a total collapse this is the
pitiful case of a Hawaiian widow in
Kalihi, which the woman herself has
told to Miss Lucy f.. Ward, humane
officer.
Help has come to the woman
through the Humane Society, which
has had her placed in Leahi Home,
while the two little girls have also
been cared for. One Of them, eight
years of age, has been sent to Queens
hospital for treatment, while the
other is to be placed soon in the Sal
walton Army home IL the plans of the
society work out.
Only a minor disease of the knee
has afflicted the smaller girl, and she
is expected to be discharged from the
hospital soon, when she will join her
sister.
"This is one Of the most pitiful
cases that has come to us, said Miss
Ward this morning. THE woman,
who is about IS years or age, has
shown a wonderful spirit in struggling
on against her difficulties to care for
the two children, and it Is a pleasure
to report that she has been placed
where she will be cared for properly.
with prospects for her recovery. Her
husband has been dead about fvel
years"

other case of woman with four
small children, left alone, the husband
and father having been brought to the
receiving station in Honolulu as Q
leper suspect.
Help has been furnished the family
to some extent by the brother-in-law,
but It has been difficult to make both
ends meet, and the woman now
wishes to come to Honolulu to get
work. Her oldest child is but Ii years
of age; the youngest, one year.
I'VE have taken this case under con-
sideration also" says Miss Ward, "and
like many others that come to us 1t is
hard to decide upon. We will try to
do something for her, however"

In answer to questions by Senator
Cummins, Mr. Thorn submitted figures
showing the net earnings Of the roads

that during the five years from 1905

a.25 per cent OF the net capitalization
while for the five years from 1910 to
1915 the average. was only 4.56 per
cent. The total earnings on the stock,
computed by adding to the net oper-
ating income the income from the Sc

1914, 400 per cent: for 1915, 3.44 per

FOREIGN TRADE OF
UNITED STATES AT
HIGH WATER MARK

Norfolk, Va, Dec. 14.-Predicting
that the American manufacturer would
be able to compete on equal terms
with European manufacturers in the
foreign field after the war, Andrew j.
Peters, assistant secretary of the
treasury spoke today before the South
ern Commercial congress. "Our for
eign trade has reached heights hith-
erto undreamed Of" he said. ITO hold
it is the paramount idea of the hour"
The cost of production in Europe by
reason of war taxes would be much
higher than in the past, he said, off
setting the advantages in the nature
of commercial agreements, gigantic
combinations and governmental assist
ance, which European manufacturers
would have.
Mr. Peters declared the American
manufacturer would be further en-
couraged TO make a bold fight against
his competitors by the attitude of the
United States government which was
eager to cooperate with him in the
expansion of his foreign trade by pro-
viding the necessary legislative ma
chinery to enable him to compete on
equal terms.

CHANGE IN MILITIA
LAW NOW NECESSARY

Sacramento, Cal, Dec. 14.-Sweeping
changes in the laws relating to the
National Guard of California must be
made at the next session of the leg
islature, according to Colonel ]. j,
Borree, acting adjutant general since
the resignation of Adjutant General
Charles A. Thomas, now on the bor-
der. The federal law passed at the
last session of congress, which reor-
ganized the militia by placing 1t on a
pay basis and requiring that members
take the federal oath, made radical al
terations in the state laws necessary.
The federal law takes precedence over
state statutes, rendering them void.
Not only will the California laws
have to be remodeled, but large addi-
tional appropriations will be needed.
according to Colonel Borree, who has
not, however, prepared his estimates of
amounts which will be asked. Details
of legislation and appropriations re-
quired will be announced before the
convenes.

CHICAGO WOMAN DECLARES NEW

WILL NOT BE INFLUENCED BY
ROMANCE OR AFFECTION.

New York, Dec. 14.-A special dis
patch to the World from Chicago says:
The third SEX" according to DR.
Bertha Van Hoosen OF Chicago has
been evolved. 1t comes from the fem
mime half of the race.
"A great many girls are discover
ing that their natures are not at all
domestic and that they have no spark
of the normal desire to marry and rear
children" said DR.. Van Hoosen. THE
balance of power which in their sis
ters goes into the sex life in these girls
seems to have been added instead to
their mental makeup.
"The new individual. who will be of a
neuter gender, will have more time
to cultivate her-or its--brain than
with the woman who gives up part OF
her time to child bearing. She will be
less emotional. Romance and sex af-
fection will not influence her."
