NEW YEAR NUMBER

The Express is indebted TO Miss Lena
Years number of the Pacific CONNER
cial Advertiser. This paper is publish
ed in Honolulu, where it was estab-
lished in 1856. There is nothing crude
it compares more than favorably with
anything we have ever seen gotten out
in the States in the way of special
editions The issue contains so pages
of four columns each. 1t is we'll print
ed on coated paper, which brings out
the half-tone illustrations to excellent
advantage. There is a colored cover
the front page of which pictures the
crater of an active volcano, making a
scene lurid enough for place in
Dante's Inferno. All the illustrations,
both half-tone and line drawings, were
made in the office of the Advertiser,
and the result reflects credit on the
equipment of the paper. The type mat
ter was set on linotype machines. The
advertising patronage is excellent and
the advertisements give one a fair idea
of the business of the islands. The edi-
ton serves as a handbook to Honolulu
and the islands, so complete is the in
formation contained therein. One of
the special articles with which the pa
per abounds was written by Roy H.
Chamberlain, a former Clarihtia boy.
who is now collector of internal rev.
enue at that place. The article is ac-
companied by a fine half-tone engrav-
ing of Mr.. Chamberlain. Altogether.

for such membership. Crabbe said
that there had been the same remark
made to him, and that the federation
had in mind one man who could fill
the vacancy in his precinct. The fact
that there had been no nominations
made by the federation made it neces-
Sary that the selections for the fourth
and seventh precincts be left open until
Monday. In the second precinct the
half votes of Brown and Andrews were
made whole ones, which filled the rep
resentation. The committee then adj

day with Postm aster General

United States Senators be elected.
The Addicks followers refused to

DOCKSTADERS

There can be no doubling the fact
that the program at Dockstader's
this week is pleasing the critics, for
evidence of their approval is seen
in the attendance at both matinee
and evening performances. And it
takes a good bill as rule to please
the critics. Mitchell & Warren, in
their minstrel speciality, Rastus &
& Banks, the colored entertainers;
John 4 Lillian Heever, and Eberly
G. Egbert, are all conspicuous in the
list of entertainers. One of the
best features of the program is the
musical act of the Carmen Sisters,
expert Banjoists. These young
ladies' are very proficient in the ma
nipulation of these instruments, and
contribute very large share Of the
pleasure of the bill, They have re-
sponded to encores innumberable
during the week. Another act that
has caused much comment in the
dancing Of the DeForrests. The
evolutions of this pair are something
marvellous and afterseeing them one
can understand why the act has
made such a hit in the metropoli-
tan houses.
