ELEVEN PLUMBERS HAVE
COMPLIED WITH LAW

Yesterday morning the new plumbing
ordinance went into effect, and eleven
pipe filters called on Plumbing Inspec
tor Miehlstein for the purpose of reg
istering. So far only one plumber has
submitted the $500 bond required by
the new law. but there doubtless will
be other bonds for approval a. the
next meeting of the Board of Super
visors.
The men who yesterday called on
the plumbing inspector in accordance
with the provisions of the ordinance,
are: F. Santos, NJ. Akimoto, John Mat
tos. Won Loui, F, Matsuichi, E. r. Bath,
James Mott, Jr., NJ. Tanaka, E. W.
Quinn, X. Oki and S. K. Aki.
Some of the japanese and Chinese
plumbers are taking exceptions to the
terms of the ordinance, and a meeting
was held Tuesday night to formulate
a plan Of action. The men have re-
tanned counsel and it is understood that
they intend to try and break the ordil
nance.
The building inspector has not been
as busy this month as last. However,
fifteen building permits have already
been issued since August l, and there
are now four more under consideration.
The inspector is having some little
difficulty forcing japanese to live up
to the requirements of the law concern
ing plumbing. The big party bathtubs
which they affect have good many
square feet of area, and the men are at
loss to understand why they cannot
battle in wooden boxes if they want to.
As there are no stock tubs manufac-
tured of a size such as agrees with the
Japanese idea of comfort, wooden boxes
are built and these, by the terms of the
ordinance, must be lined with metal.
But no haole can tell the difference
between japanese bathtub and a
grain bin, and some of the Japanese
builders take advantage of the fact.

DRUG F|END
On The CHINA
Woman Passenger Spoiled Voy-
age for Many of the
Travellers.

There was considerable Indignation
among a lot of the passengers of the
Pacific Mail steamship China who
travelled on the boat from Chinese ports
over the conduct of a woman passen-
ger from Shanghai, and quite group
expressed their opinions freely just be-
fore sailing hour Tuesday. The wo-
man is a drug fend, using any sort of
a drug she can procure. Ali the way
across the Pacific she made life miser-
able for the better class of passengers.
She disturbed all kinds Of social amuse-
ments and church services, and few
would venture near her stateroom.
While church services were under way
on Sunday last she broke into them
and cursed and carried on until the
meeting had to be discontinued. Her
language was foul. The passengers felt
that Captain Friele should have locked
her up, placed her under the care of
the surgeon or put her off the boat at
Nagasaki.
Many passengers stated that their
trip had been spoiled to some extent
by having to travel on the same
vessel with the woman. Some wen
finishing a world tour and happened to
arrive in the Chinese port when the
China was due to sail. It was their
misfortune, they say, that the Man
churia or Mongolia was not there then,
that they might have travelled on one
of them instead of the China, for be-
ing larger boats they could have got
ten away from the woman and Journey
ed in peace.

on january 10th, 1912.
His educational advantages were
confined to the common country
schools, the outbreak of the war
preventing him from securing a
collegiate education. Young Mr..
holland enlisted in the spring of
1861, in Capt. Gus SCOTS COM
pany which became officially

Rouge to Bowling Green, KY, in
the summer of 1861 and partici-
pated in all the skirmishing and
fighting in Kentucky and Ten
nessee. After the retreat from
Missionary Ridge it went to
Dalton, Ga, and was generally
on the advance lines. In the
early part Of 1864, the regiment
was transferred to Louisiana and
was in numbers of fights and
skirmishes in this state.

been formed among the Japanese a OF

The letters and reports found in the
