OFPITTSBURGIS
VISITOR IN CITY
Smoky City War-Mad and the
Women Step Into Places
Vacated by Men, He Says

Samuel r. Kelly. of Pittsburg ar
rived in Honolulu last week and Is
staying at the PleasantOn hotel. .Mr.
Kelly is vice president of the George
A. Kelly Company, the oldest whole
sale drug concern west OF the Alle5hanE
mountains, having been established In
1929 He is also vice-president OF the
William Penn and Fort Pitt hotels.
Those who know consider the Will
lam Penn the finest hotel in the world.
II is not the largest, being only 20
stories high, and having only 1000
rooms, but every room is an outside
room, and has eithe. a bath or shower,
or both The imperial architect sent
out by the Mikado all over the world
to study hotels with view to building
the Imperial hotel. requested and re
ceiyed the blue prints of the William
Penn to take lack to the Emperor,
saying that although he had seen all
the famous hotels Of Europe and
Asia, he had seen nothing else SO
perfect.
All this is just by the way. If one
asks AR. Kelly what he is he will
tell you that he has been four years in
the workhouse. He is on the lnspec-
ton board of the Allegheny county
workhouse, and the work that is be-
ing done by this institution in the
reclamation of seemingly lost human
ity appears to interest him more than
anything else. The workhouse, which
is about ten miles from Pittsburg,
has in connection with it a thousand
acre farm, and it is out on this farm,
away from the smoke and noise OF
the city, that much of the reclamation
work is being accomplished. The in
ebriate asylum established in connec.
ton with the workhouse is effecting
some wonderful cures, according to
Mr.. Kelly, who says that it is a re-
grettable fact that there are as many
women as men inebriates in this place.
Questioned about war conditions in
Pittsburg, Mr.. Kelley said:
"Pittsburg is war-mad. We are
the worlds workshop just now, and
everything is war There is no lack
of patriotism, no worth mentioning
attempts to evade the draft, and more
than $4,500,000 was subscribed for the
first Liberty Loan in the city of Pitts
burg. - a..
IN the big foundries and iron and
steel manufactures women by the
hundreds have been employed to re-
place men who have volunteered or
been drafted for the war. They make
good workers, too, Just as good as the
men. In our hotels tit was just here
that he let it slip that he had any
connection with a hoteD we have al
most an entire clerical force of wo-
men. The cost of common labor is
very high. WheelbarTow pushers and
like laborers now demand, and easily
get, SIS a day as a minimum wage
against $1.75 a year ago" ....
Mr. Kelly had no thought of coming
to Honolulu when he left Pittsburg
He said it just happened one day in
San Francisco somebody asked him
why he didn't go to Honolulu, and he
answered by taking the next boat.

May Raise Sunken Ships.

An interesting paragraph in Ship.
ping says that many of the torpedoed
vessels that lie at the bottom Of the
sea may be salved after the war.
Neither ships nor cargoes," it affirms,
Except perishable materials and food.
stuffs, deteriorate very much under
water. When a vessel is being re-
1oated, barrel Of oil is poured on the
surface Of the water in order to leave
a deposit over the machinery. Re.
pairs are quickly effected, and sections
shattered by torpedo present no great
difficulties in the work Of salvage.
Valuable as are the ships themselves
that now lie at the bottom of the sea,
the cargoes Of cotton, rubber, wool,
machinery, etc., are considered to be
more valuable STILL" Parts of the
North sea and of the English channel
are shallow enough to permit of this
kind Of salvage work on a consider.
able scale, according to the authority
quoted.-Outlook Magazine.

Woman's After-War Work.

Mary Boazman writes as follows in
the Woman at Home, London:
"At the end of the war many women
will be engaged in vocatiOns once sa-
cred to men. Some of these are prob
ably unsuited to them. but in others
they will continue to the advantage
Of themselves and society. The time
is surely ripe for proper division Of
the various employments between the
two sexes to end the fierce compete
ton prevailing before the increase to
the army. For instance, waiting at
table and the teaching of young chill
dren are tasks more adapted to wom-
en- than to men, and might we'll be-
come their monopoly. 1t is clearly
wiser to prepare for the numbers Of
women who will have to be provided
for in the future in systematic fash
ion, than to leave the matter to settle
itself in the haphazard way which
breeds confusion and strife"

WAR MAKES HIS FARM PAY
Russians Ten-kcre Tract en- Iona
Island Now Bringing 100000
Yearly Rental.

When Meyer l. Shapiro, a hay and
feed dealer Of Wootlhaven exchanged
three two-family houses in Woodhaven
for q tcnacre farm near Yaplank.
l.. l., about four years ago, his
friends looked upon the transac-
tlon as anything but wise one.
The Woodhaven property represent.
ed value Of about s12,JOO, and Sha.
pros friends told him they doubted
II the farm he took in exchange
would be paying investment for 100
years to come. But Shapiro told
everybody that he had always want.
ed to acquire farm on Long Island.
and that he didn't care II it never did
eurn out paying investment. &C.
cretly, however. he had some mispiv.
tngs, and less than year ago, he ad.
mits, he would have been glad to sell
his ten acres with the comfortable
broom house thereon for mere
song. Then, along came the war and
the selection by the government OH.
Gals Of the Yaphank site for q can.
comment where the drafted men could
b trained. Shapiro's property hap
pened to be opposite the Camp UPTON
railroad station and the main entrance
to the camp. Immediately there was
y demand for Shapiro's land on the
part Of big and small business inter.
ests which saw the commercial posi-.
bilities and expressed an eagerness
to lease parcels for fabulous sums.
Now Shapiro expects to collect $780,.
600 yearly in rentals. When the gov.
eminent first decided on the camp site
several months ago Shapiro turned
down a 100000 cash offer for bis
property.
Shapiro is forty.two years old. He
was born in Kovno, Russia, and ha.
been somewhat Of a globe trotter. He
emigrated from Russia to Johannes.
burg, South Africa, in his twenties.
After the Boer war Shapiro Travelled
extensively. He came to this country
about IL years ago and settled In
Brooklyn, where he engaged ~ the
feed business. Five years IA he

superstItions About Salt,

It Is curious fact that, from the
earliest times, many superstitions have
chung about the use Of salt. There is
much evidence in Holy Writ for cere-
monial uses Of 1t. The Mosaic law
commands that every oblation Of meat
offered shall be seasoned with salt, a
command that is given, with varia-
tons, in various books Of the Bible,
such as Leviticus 2:18 and Ezekiel
1874. In the old days salt was put
into child's mouth in baptism, and
in some countries to this day the Gus.
tom is followed Of throwing a pinch Of
u into holy water to ward off the evil
spirit.

Which Means There Are Three
and Half Million Autos
in j, S, Now.

NEW YORK, Jan. LII you are a
seventh son or a seventh daughter, you
should have an automobile.
Every seventh family in the United
States owns one, according to figures
given on, today by the National Auto
mabiIe Chamber OF Commerce,
Its census, based on account OF auto
mobiles last June and the estimated
production since, that date, shows g.
10000 cars in the country today. The
population OF the United States (not
counting foreign possesSions) is lO2,-
100000 or 2S.000000 families on the
census bureaus basis OF four persons
TO a family. Figure out the car aver.
age yourself.
The production OF automobiles in the
United States for the first six months
of 1910 was 10000, according to fig
ureS OF the chamber OF commerce
The total number OF cars registered
in the country on July | was 2,952,454,
OF these New York had the greatest
number, 80 los, Ohio was second with
DS70S, followed by Illinois with 205,
7H, Pennsylvania 1909 and Calitor

1t is estimated that the distribution
Of cars produced during the last half
OF the year will give New York 10000
or total OF 100000. Other States will
show increases, according to II. w,
Perdy, of the chamber OF commerce.
