To Entertain Lepers.

Honolulu, Sept. 4.-The lepers OF
the leper colony on the island of
Molokai, are to have a moving picture
show all of their own. The news OF
their desiring such a feature Of
amusement reached here a. few days
ago and within a few hours the $500
necessary for purchasing the outfit
had ben subscribed by Honolulu cit
liens. Aside from the necessary re-
straint imposed upon them, there is
little that other people in the terri
tory enjoy that the lepers do not get
also. The great Atlantic fleet even
went out of its course in order to pass
close to the shores of the settlement,
and reduced speed that the passage
OF Molokai might be made after
daylight.

walla Walla, Sept. Has Whit
nian been handed lemon instead OF
football coach for the coming
year?
The question IS one that is arous>
ing considerable interest in sporting
circles here and the general opinion
Is that Whitman will have neither
material nor coaching this fall. Mer-
ell Blanchard, for the past two years
coach at Washington university, ST.
Louis. has been employed to look
after the Missionary football interests
and from his recommendations It was
thought by the faculty he was a top
nctcher. Although no one had ever
heard Of him his recommendations
we're good and he claimed to be able
to coach football, basketball, base
ball. track and everything else. The
college authorities bit and he is to
coach the Whitman team.
But when the spaldlng football
guide for the season Of 1908 reached
the city. the first Of the week, it was
found that Washington university
ard Blanchard had been a football
joke, that the nearest he had come
to winning a game was the goose

University Of Missouri. team itself

More Is said in the guide on pages
65 and 81, concerning the poor work
done by him and his team, and the
feeling here is that the college au-
thorities have certainly made mis-
tske in picking their coach for the
coming year.

NO RUSH AT BANKS
THOSE WHO HOLD SCRIPT SEEM
 SATISFIED.
Banks Had Already Retired % Per Cent. of it When it Was
 Called In.


 Should the business at any of the banks in Montgomery be taken as a criterion it would seem that Montgom- erians are perfectly satisfied with the script that they now hold, for after 1t was announced that the new money would be retired as fast as 1t was pre- scented at any of the banks, no more than usual came in yesterday. That was small per cent, of the money handled. <
 The fact is that about 90 per cent. of the clearing house certificates have been retired without the association or any of the bankers letting the fact be generally known. As was stated in The Advertiser a month ago the bansk took up the money quietly in order that the Ignorant and suspicious would not make a rush to nave thelr new money changed toN the kind that they were accustomed to. Without the mat ter becoming generally known 90 per cent. of the money has been taken in so the small amount of 10 per cent. IS all that remains to be exchanged for United States money.
 It is thought that had the officers of the Clearing House Association stated a month ago that the script would he retired that there might have been aJrun on the banks to have the money changed so they have em- pIoyed the method of going about IL quietly with the result that the situa- tion is back once more to about nor nal. Those who have the new money are evidently overly anvious to have1t exchanged, for few of them appeared at the banks yesterday for that pur- pose alone. @
 Although closely pursued by Savan- nah, Montgomery was thS first city in the South to retire the certificates. The lead was only obtained by ter rible race at the wire, however, A Savannah a meeting of the CiearinE- house Association was hold Saturday and it was stated that on, Monday the banks would decide to retire the cer- tificates while in Montgomery at the meeting Saturday they were called In then. Montgomery was one of the last cities to inaugurate the plan and tho first to formally recall them
 'rWe feel that we have dealt with the situation in a most satisfactory man ner." stated Mir. Baldwin, President of the Clearing House Association to The Advertiser yesterday. We have got ten the most of this new money in the banks without making the fact gen. eraIly known that we were taking 1t in and after we have the most of 1t in we are still the first city to formally recall the certificates At present ev- cry bank Nn the city has plenty of money in the vaults to do business with The certificates will be redeem ed just as rapidly as they appear at the1 windows in the different banks so it will not be long until they will be forRoften,"

Neck rests used during last year by Montgomerians while watching the construction of he First National Bank Building will have to be again called into use.- said citizen yesterday as he gazed at tho new Belr B,riding on tho corner of Montgomsry and Lee Streets. This Is "a more retired spot. too. and there will be no Euying by any but those whe come to indulge themselyes .n the pleasure of seeing the speed and accuracy of the man who throws bolts across the building to be caught in a little hand bucket blythe riveter."
 Those who have had occAsion to pass the corIier on which the new building IS being construced have wondered how so much Work hAs been accomplished In such short while. Fosr stories of steel have already been put into place and the riveters are busy.
 Perhaps it would be well for the peopleT of Montgomery to know that the Construction company which has the contract for theN building, have made the Announcement that the Bell building Is to be their banner build ing. By this Is meant that a new record will have been established for quick work when the building is turn ed over to, the owner completed.
 The- First National Bank Building was constructed in hurry. and prob ably is one of the. banner buildings. But the Bell building. is to be,the ban ner building of the banner buildings.
 The construction company did not start their work until all of the lsnaterial was in sight. and new that It is coming to the city, it is being used as rapidly as it can be, unloaded from the freight cars The steel

TO STAND TOGETHER
LIBERALS DRAW NEARER TO THE
 PRUssIAN GOvERNMENT.
View oR Che Governfhent Coneerhing the Street Demonstrations of Last Week Are GiyenaOut for Puh-
 lication.

Berlin Jan. 1s--The Associated Press is epabled. through the courtesy of a parsonage who Is in close relations with Prime Minister yon Buelow. to set forth the views of the government concerning the street demonstrations of last Friday and yesterday, which resulted from the demand in the Prus sian Landtag for the .lpolition of >tne present plutoeratic system of suf- frage and the substitution therefor of manhood suffrage.
 The Socialist disturbances will re- suit in the Liberals drAwing closer to- gether In the support of the govern ment," this official said. '' The Liberals in Germany are composed largely of manufacturers, bankers, merchants and other property owning interests. These interests perceive that if aney are 10 avoid being devoured by the Socialists they must stand togetherkfor a strong government. Prince won eBuelow's de- claration was no more than the sim pie truth. The government will con- sent to no electoral changes which in- crease the power of these Socialists to agitate against the existing organisa- tion of society and all political parties excepting the Socialists willlfnake com mon cause with it.
 Both sides are disposed to minimize the character of the demonstration Of yesterday and each afflrms that the manifestants were composed in part Of rowdies who made use of this opportu- nity to endeavoF to create mischief. HerrSvon Berries, the chief commits sioner of police. says that the oerh- onstration was carefully planned and 'that the police took decisive action only when they knew the Sor !a1ists were determined upon unlawful pub lie demonstrations. The Socialists quite agree that the demonstrations were, prepared in advance, but they declare that they would have passed on in an orderly mannar if the police had not brutally charged inoffensiye paraderss
 Detached observers regard the events of the last four days as embittertng the masses and making the govern ment more determined than ever to keep the franchise oh limited scale. Nothing further is expegted to hap pen in the immediate future. except that. the Socialists. seeking a fresh weapon, probably will stir up the pas, sions of those who believe themselves denied adequate representation.

Contractors Will Make Record
 in Constructing Bell Building

framework Is never allowed to touch the ground after 1t leaves the mills of the North. A derrick has been erected at the railroad freight yards and trans fers the steel from the cars to the wagons which haul 1t to the site of the building -
 As soon as the wagon comes to a halt at the site of tho building. the derrfcks on the top of the structure im- mediatsIy set 1t up in place, and the riveters get busy with the preliminary bolts. IE
 The steel used in the construction has been remarked upon by many It is heavier than has ever before been used in the construction of a building in the city and possibly in the State, The weight of the foundation steel which fests on the concrete piers is enormous, and the steel beams and up- rights above compare equally.
 It has been rumored about the neigh horhood~of the building that the con- struction company wish to turn over their building at the same time that the Gay y-reague Hotel on Commerce Street. which was begun earlier. is turned over to- its owners. Whether this rumor be true or not ttNcertainIy looks as If something was doing In record lines when the first story was erected in one day. In the first week of the building. the foundation. cellar and first story and part of the second were erected. The other steel has been placed as fast as it arrives in the city.
