ditiOn.

New YORK, Jan. AN air of gloom
pervaded the headquarters ofthe Cuban
revolutionary party in this city and the
leaders who would not admit Tuesday
night that there had been any filibus-
tering expedition which had met with
disaster. now freely admitted that the
story Of the wreck of the steamer j. w.
Hawkins was correct. T. E. Palma,
who is the acknowledged head of the
revolutionary party in New York, said
that the story was undoubtedly true,
but he claimed that the amount of
money expended in the expedition had
been exaggerated, and that only about
500, had been expended in fitting
out the steamer J. w. Hawkins includ-
ing arms and ammunition.

THAT is" said Mr.. Palma, "always
presuming chat such an expedition was
fitted out | wish you would say for
me through the Associated Press, that

Thinks There Was Treachery.
One of the Cuban leaders made the
startling announcement that it was
evident there had been treachery in the
camp of the filibustering party.
You see.' said he. I'VE hired an
expert in this city to 60 to Baltimore tc
examine the steamer j. w. Hawkins
before we purchased her. This exper,
reported that the steamer was sea-
worthy. Now either the expert did not
do his duty properly and the steamer
was not fit to go to sea or else there wa:

scuttled the ship. The latter woulc
seem to be the case. Neither Genera
Garcia, who was in command of the

tory of mercantile transac-
tons in Honolulu have
the people had such a
a golden opportunity to Sc
lect "a lamp as today. A
manufacturer who had more
than he knew what to do
with, more than he had
space to put them, wrote US
of his troubles. We had
none kof our own SO we
listened to him. Our stock
of lamps is the result Of his
tale of woe and you get the
benefit.
A black lamp that will give
a bright light is not a fad,
but a style that will remain
until "NeW Hawaii shall
become old. Being sombre
in color they furnish with
any decorations you may
have in your room and any
color shade that suits your
fancy will look we'll on the

For a dinner table nothing
furnishes the table better
than black banquet lamps.
We have them, not cumber-
some, but of a height that
will BE- autify rather than de-
tract from the other features.
We have piano lamps, ball
lamps, boudoir lamps and
every other character of
lamp that ever was. made.
The prices are so low that it
would injure our business to
put them in this column.

has been formed with ample capital to
carry on the business.
The process requires a specially ruled
screen and specially ruled paper. A
multi-cOlOred screen, ruled by very fine
lines, formed of dots or small particles,
is employed Fundamental cOlors of the
spectrum are preferably used for these
Iines-say. orange red, a yellOwish
green and a violet blue.
The screen is ruled with lines in
these colors. about 300 to the inch. This
screen is placed in front of and in close
contact with an oTthchrOmatic plate,
which is then exposed in the camera to
the object TO be photographed. The
ordinary black and white negative is
thus obtained in lines corresponding
to the screen in register.
From this negative positive is made
in the ordinary way on the glass or
paper. If now the screen, or a similar
Iy ruled one, be laid on the positive and
moved until the positive and screen
are in register, the picture comes up in
original colors.
The color screens are easily and
cheaply prepared Inexpensive ma

no special manufacturing. Orthochro-
matte plates are only a trifie more eX-

1t is announced that photography in

The results of this long-awaited
achievement are not simply garish
reds, blues and yellows. Pictures have
been taken that show II distinct shades
of color. The process was hit upon
overnight. Years of time and thous-
and of dollars were spent before sue
cess was reached. For 80 years James
w. McDonough has been labOring in
Chicago to re produce photographs in
colors. Thousands of experiments were
performed till one day, 10 years ago,
he got upon the right track. Capital
then came to his aid, but the successful
end was not yet. Over in Dublin, Ire

working along the same line. Success
crowned his efforts a few months ago.
He sought letters patent in London and
in Washington. To his utter astOnish-

him in an application for an American
patent. Both men, thousands of miles
apart and working independently, had
hit upon the secret.
Soon the Patent once al WaShlng-

What Is
PURIFINE?

It Is the new disinfectant which
has superseded all other disinfect-
ants, being scientific compound,
having no odor, yet possessing the
qualities of a powerful disinfectant.
The automatic distributor should
be placed in every house in Homo
lulu where odors and germs of dis
ease exist. They are placed free
of charge, taken care of and kept
working day and night for $1.00
per month. It's an innovation, but
on scientific principles. and ap-
peals to everyone Of common sense.
The idea is this: The distributor
drops two drops minute, day and
night. Foul odors are killed, yet
no disagreeable smell Of carbolic
acid or crude disinfectants takes
it's place. You don't know that a
powerful disinfectant is being used
If you judge by the lack of odor.
But it's doing the duty-doing 1t
well. Can we show you the Ideal

THE PORTLAND VASE.
A Masterpiece That Long Puzzled tht
Antiquarisns of Europe.

A Masterpiece That Long Puzzled the
Antiquarisns of Europe.
The workmanship of the vase and the
material of which it is composed long
exercised the ingenuity of some of the
greatest antiquarians in Europe.
BrevaI believed it to be chalcedony;
Bartoli, Montfaucon and others, sar-
donix; Count Fezi, amethyst; De la
Chause and Nilsson, agate, while Venut-
ii decided that it was paste. Wedge
woods examination of the vase proved
the last opinion to be the correct one.
A layer of white glass had been fused
on dark blue body, the exquisite fig
ures being afterward produced in this
layer by cutting down to the blue by
the gem engraver, after the manner of
real canoes. Wedgewood also discov-
cred that the vase had at some time
been broken and repaired. 1t was his
opinion that the head which formed the
bottom of the vase was piece of some
other work that had been cut down and
inserted in the place of the original bot
tom, which had probably been de-
stroyed at the time the vase itself was
broken.
BY the autumn of 1889 Wedgewood,
after many failures, had succeeded in
his arduous undertaking, and the first
perfect copy, made in the famous jas
per ware, was finished. Several more
copies were subsequently made, though
the exact number does not seem at all
certain. These were of various de-
grees of perfection and varied in size
and color. Originally sold at from 30
to so guineas each, according to ex-
cellence of finish, time has, of course,
considerably enhanced their value, and
some years ago, at the sale of the Mar
tineau collection, one sold for 6 294.
In 1910 the duke of Portland placed
the vase in the British museum, where
some 35 years afterward it was wanton-
" broken to atoms by drunken Wis
itor. After being skillfully repaired,
it was placed for additional safety with
the gems.
Authorities are by no means agreed
as to the subject of the bas-relief,
though various explanations have been
offered. According to the museum cata-
logue, the composition represents OH
the diverse, Thetis consenting to be
the bride of Peleus in the presence of
Poseidon and Eros; on the reverse,
Peleus and Thetis on Mount Pelion, and
on the bottom of the vase (now de-
tached) a youthful bust of Paris.-Good

It Was Patented by Stevens and Is Now
I'm the National Museum.
There is no place in this country
where one can get so good an idea of
all kinds of boats as can be obtained
In the National museum. Here one
sees boats of bark, boats made out
of the skins of animals, with bone and
bamboo ribs; dugout, smooth bottom,
clinker built, fat, sharp and perfectly
round boats that resemble tub.
The highly decorated fiat-bottomed
Mississippi steamboat can be seen full
of fancy gingerbread work, with sa-
looms and staterooms piled above each
other, looking like a floating house
and suggestive of Life on the Missis-
sippi" as Mark Twain and others saw
it.
In strong contrast to the ark-like
Mississippian are the full-rigged and
polished ocean ships, the yachts and
beautiful models of war ships and
others. These claim the attention of
thousands of visitors; but there is
more real interest shown in a small
corner where a bust of Robert Fulton
looks down upon things which taxed
the inventive genius of men who in
augurated the reign of steam. Here,
with coat of black paint upon it to
check the tooth of time, which has
gnawed it almost through, is tubular
boiler. This boiler was patented by
John Stevens in the United States
in 1903 and in England in 1905.

These plates are to be inclosed at each

The first patents in America were
to Reade, Fitch, Rumsey and Stevens,
in August, 1871. Reade's was for a
portable furnace tubular boiler;
Fitch's was for driving a vessel by TAX
ing water in at the bow and forcing it
out at the stern. The principle of Rum

the same as Fitch's. Mechanical
