TO CATCH
VOLCANOES
HiIo Man Orders Edison
Moving Picture
Machine.

A moving pieture-making machine
has been ordered from the Edison
| Manufacturing company by A. James,
of Hilo, who wants it in time to be
able to take a series of views of the
crater of Kilauea in action. As soon
as the Kahuku outbreak was reported
some weeks ago Mr.. James cabled to
r. K. Bonine, who visited these islands
recently for the Edison company, to
come Immediately and secure some
views of the lava flow. Mr.. Bonine
having secured promise from Mr..
James to let him know Immediately
of any extraordinary activity in the
Hawaii volcanoes. Unfortunately Mr..
Bonine was unable to come, but Mr..
James is determined that the oppor-
tunity of securing some unique views
is not to be lost.
The order he has forwarded to
Orange, New Jersey, is for complete
outfit of the very latest pattern. In
letter to H. P. Wood, of the Promo
tion Committee, telling him of his in
tentions, Mr.. James says that he ex-
poets the machine to be here and ready
as soon as the expected filing of the
pit of Halemaumau takes place, when
the pictures can be taken.
Ii this can be done successfully, and
there seems no reason why it can not,
the Hawaii Promotion Committee will
be able to send out a series of pictures
absolutely unique and giving the most
positive proof, that of ocular demon
stration, that the volcano is one of
the grandest sights in the world Of
fered to tourists and also enc of the
safest. The presentation of such pic
lures on the mainland ought to be one
of the best promotion advertising
projects ever accomplished, while there
should, at the same time, be a hand |
some profit in it for the man owning |
the copyright of the films. A moving |
picture of a volcano in full action |
would be a drawing card for any NOV
ing picture show and thousands of the /
films would be sold throughout the |
world. In the event of another lava /
low in the near future, Mr.. James
would also be on the spot and ready I
for the occasion.

At one time during the assault Tay-

by a blow on the base of the skull,
during which time his revolver, which
he was using as club, was wrested
away from him. Fortunately the police
have the two ringleaders in the assault
under arrest, one being the man who
struck the first blow and began the
affair, the other the man who had taken
the Chiefs revolver.
The affair occurred in the Porto
Rican part of the tenderloin shortly
after ten O'Clock. For the first time
Taylor was making the rounds of that
part of the city alone and had stepped
over to the yard of one of the houses
to caution the inmates regarding dis
turbance they were making. He ad-

men, who threw themselves upon Tay-
lor and began to rain blows upon him,

club his way out of the yard, in the
meantime calling upon the crowd for
assistance. Three or four responded,
while others joined the fight against

and young Macy. the latter being badly
