TOOK VIEW
OF WAIKIKI

Everybody was there to get his "pic-
ture took" yesterday. When the report
spread that photographer Arthur Rice
was to cake panoramic view of Waikiki
beach from the Young Hotel Annex to
Diamond Head all Honolulu made siren
uous efforts to get within those limits
At least the beach was we'll filled with
bathers and onlookers whose pictures
will, it is hoped, bring many to the Pa
radise of the Pacific after the Promotion
Committee spreads them abroad. After
being photographed himself in his bath
ing suit with his camera under his arm,
Mr.. Rice went in canoe to big tripod
which had been erected on the reef OPP
posite the Hawaiian Hotel Annex and
took the picture. 1t certainly ought to
be success, for there was something
doing in the water every moment. There
were upsets, duckings and the like to
furnish amusement for the crowd.

caught me by the leg. lifted me clean
from the floor and threw me over his

arm, struck him squarely on the left

out of time for over two minutes. The
limit under the rules, you know, was
half a minute. While Mcclellan was
being cared for by one of his seconds,
Arthur Chambers was frantically
claiming a foul, this being a ruse to
gain time and enable Mac to recover.
Thinking the referee ignorant of the
rules, l said to him:

FOR |RELANO'S CAUSE
UNITED LEAGUE OF AMERICA
BEGAN SESSION IN NEW
YORK TODAY.
ou,,;,ed Three Years Ago Has
Grown More Than Forty Per
Cent in Membership.

NEW YORK, Aug. 30.-After more
than a quarter of a century OF parlla-
mentary agitation the Irish cause IN
America is to be put on new foot
ing. The United Irish League or amer
lea. which began its convention IN
the Lexington Opera house in this city
today, intends to direct Its efforts IN
the future toward securing complete
autonomy for Ireland.
The United Irish League of America
was organized three years ago, and has
grown very rapidly since that time. In
the last two years there has been an
increase of more than forty per cent in
the number of branches located
throughout the country. It's purpose is
to act as auxiliary in America to the
national organization in Ireland, whose
primary declaration is: This society is
constituted for the purpose Of forward
ing a brotherhood of affection, a COM
among Irishmen.
The ends which the league strives to
attain are: Full national self-gOvern-
ment for Ireland; the abolition of land
lordism in Ireland by means of a uni
versal and compulsory system of land
purchase; putting an end to periodical
famine in the distressed districts of
Ireland; to insist upon the appropria-
ton to strictly Irish national uses Of
the $15,000,0OO at present annually ex-
ported from Ireland for the benefit Of
England in excess of the contribution
stipulated by the act of union: to Sc
cure the redistribution of the grazing
ranches of Connaught. and reinstate-
ment of the evicted tenants; to secure
complete educational equality for all
creeds in Ireland; to secure the COM
pusory extension throughout Ireland
of the law for providing agricultural
laborerS with cottages and Oneacre al
right of the crown to challenge jurors
III political cases except for cause
shown, and to work for the preserva-
ton of the Gaelic language as part of
the struggle for the recovery of Irish
national freedom.
The problems to be discussed by the
present convention are thus terSely set
forth in this declaration of principles,
but delegates are chary of expressing
able action of the convention. 1t is
generally conceded. however, that the
situation today is very similar to that
which confronted the Irish party in
America some thirty years or more ago,
when Messrs. Parnell and Biggar were
only beginning to be heard from as
dissentents in the party under the
leadership of Isaac Butt. Wien Lord
Beaconsfield was still Mr.. Disraeli,
when the Irish church was not yet dis
established, when Lord Randolph
Churchill had not yet been even heard
of and when the Irish agitation in
England was marked by the tragic in
cidents of Manchester and Clarken-
