JAPANESE LAUNDRIES
THREATEN CHINESE.

The Chinese laundrymen have
commenced to sit up and take notice.
The cause of this move on the part
Of the washee gentlemen who claim
the fowery kingdom as their native
land is the fact that heavy inroads
are being made on their laundry bus
mess by the Japanese.
Small Japanese washing joints are
springing into existence all over the
city. This fact has been brought to
light by4 Plumbing Inspector Keen,
who, in his rounds, in the interest OF
the citys health, has discovered the
fact.
The Japanese are now negotiating
with the Board of Health for a site
on the Nuuanu stream near Vineyard
street, on which to erect laundry
claiming establishment of huge di'
mansions.
