National Congress Enacts
Stringent Anti-!ug
Law.
Remnantsss Of Reconstruction Re.
moved From The Text OF Re-
slSed Statutes BY Both
Houses OF COndfeSS.

Washington, D. c., March 3.-The
penal code bill passed the Senate this
afternoon after the elimination of the
obnoxious sections which the Demo-
Gratis opposed as being remnants of
the reconstruction era. This bill con-
tains the anti-jug rider. It has final
ly run the gauntlet in both Houses
signature.
From the section which declares
that troops of the United States shall
not be used in any State except il
case of war or to keep peace at the
polls, the words, Ito keep peace at tie
polls" were stricken. The laws MAX
ing for reconstruction horrors will no
more fnG a place on the statute.
books.
Another section affecting the right
to serve on iuries, which provided that
no citizen of the United States should
be Disseminated against in the matter
Of selection for Jury duty because of
race, color or previous condition of
servitude, was eliminated from the
bill. This means that negroes may
be kept off juries in the South.
The anti-jug law was put on as an
amendment to the code bill by the
House. The Senate had adopted the
measure as an Independent bill, which
had been reported from the Judiciary
Committee by Senator Knox. It was
similar to the bill originally intro
duced in the House by Mr.. Brantly,
of Georgia. The amendment prohib-
it's any railroad or express company
seller in consignment Of liquor. The
carrier may transport the liquor, but
it must have nothing else to do with
the transaction. The bill is intended
to prohibit G. o. D. shipments of
liquor to fictitious persons and to
break up an arrangement by which
the express Offices have been made
branch Offices of the liquor houses.
The bill requires that every package
of liquor shipped in interstate com
merce shall be plainly marked on the
outside cover.
Violations are punishable by fines
of not more than $4,000, or imprison-
ment for two years, and there is an
alternative to the last provision that
the liquor seized may be destroyed.

SUICIDE CROWNED
DESPERATE DEED


Ossa Nakayama, the Japanese woman
who drank ant poison last week while
in fit of hysteria, died on Friday
evening at the japanese hospital. The
woman had been treated at her home
in Kakaako but becoming worse was
taken to the hospital.
Ossa was well known about town as
a woman who called at residences to
shampoo and massage and sew. She
was an industrious woman. 1t is be-
ieved that she drank the ant poison
while temporarily deranged. A couple
of years ago she fell from street ear
and was severely injured and since
then her health has been bad. She had
many friends around town. As she was
known as Ossa, and as her name APP
peared in the papers only as Mrs. Naka.

PROTEST AGAINST
INDECENT PICTURE

Two well-known gentleman called at
the Advertiser office last night to voice
protest against an obscene picture
displayed on the screen of the Art NOV.
ing picture theater during the evening.
The picture in question showed the in.
terror of bawdy house with all its
suggestive and debauehing indeeeney
and they were glad to leave the place.
No man would take his wife. or
mother, or sister, or daughter to a
bawdy house, - said one of the gentle,
men, "but here the entire audience
eomposd of people well known in social
circles, in business life, young girls and
boys, are conducted to a pawdy house.
First sedueer and his victim are
shown. The interior of the bawdy
house with the women inmates dressed
to I'LL the role, is shown. They are
drinking champagne. The sedueer and
his victim are shown entering the room
and the girl is brought amongst these
women. The next scene shows hel
dressed as the other fallen women are
and she is carousing and drinking
. Well, what is the use of saying
more. 1t is disgusting picture.
am glad the Advertiser is taking its
stand against immoral moving picture;
| being shown in Honolulu. There is NJ
necessity for them-there is no call fel
them and our girls and boys should mo-
see them. Many parents are refusing
to permit their children to go eveE tt
the matinees for fear they will see pic
lures which even we men might blusl

yesterday in the interests of Japan
ese woman, directing Raymond c.
Brown of the immigration Station to
bring her to the Federal Court on next
Tuesday morning. She has been de-
tanned at the immigration Station, ac-
eording to the writ, on report of In

Pineapple Outlook.
The most sanguine, two years ago,
never looked for the opening that the
past few months have made for Hawai-.
ian pineapples. Coupled with an i'm
mediate response from shrewd and able
advertising, which practically cleaned
out the reserved stocks of canned in
the local warehouses, comes the pros.
pect Of a falling off in the 1909 fruit
crop ON the mainland. Orders are be-
ing received and filed now for futures
and it appears probable that canned
will move almost as fast as it can be
handled, leaving no surplus any
where to count on. The Seattle fair
is proving a valuable advertising cen
ter for the fruit and the sales being
made in the Hawaiian building alone
Justify all the expense the pineapple
people have gone to to exhibit and
push their goods.
The Hawaiian Pineapple Company
last week paid one per cent. dividend
and the stock is quoted above par, with
a good demand. The Hiio cannery ex'
poets to turn out $4,000 eases and the
prospects have moved the stock in that
concern to par. offers to sell the control
at shade under that having been re-
fused.
Fresh pines are in demand on the
Coast and one shipment of three cars
has gone forward as far into the in
terror as Chicago. The market for fresh
fruit is opening up as widely as that
for canned.

In the first year of his practice,
Judge Royce of Vermont was called to
prosecute in a Justice suit, and, fresh
from Chitty, field plea in abatement,
which ne duly discussed. The justice,
in deciding the case, said: stThe young
lawyer has fled what he calls plea IN
abatement; now this plaintiff seems TO
be very ignorant man, and his law
yer about as ignorant as he is, and his
writ doesn It seem to be very good
writ, and doesn't resemble one mueh
more than it does hog yoke; but the
plaintiff seems to be an honest man,
and if he has just claim against this
defendant, he shall have judgment.
Whereupon, Judge Royce, elated at the
result, but somewhat disguised with
the remarks of the justice, arose, and,
making very profound bow, said to
the court: 81 much thank you, d--n
you.''

Grinding Reports Bright.
The reports from the plantations,
where the grinding season is about at
an end, indicate good yield, not as
great in total tonnage as that of last
year but showing quite as large an
acre tonnage. The big mills of the Ha-
waiian Commercial are closed down af-
ter a record run, in which 52,725 tons
of sugar were turned out from the
376,369 tons of cane harvested. The
grinding has been practically without
stopping since last November.
Weather reports continue to be favor
able and but for the dimming caused
by the temporary labor difficulty the
prospects for the coming season would
be the brightest the Islands have ever
had.
Business Good.
General business conditions are good
The first of the month brought into
availability Federal appropriations Of
two and half millions for military
and naval purposes, all to be spent on
Oahu and much of it in the immediate
neighborhood of and in Honolulu. Local
tradesmen announce a healthy business
for the opening six months of the year.
with collections good and prospects
bright There is some let up to the
Japanese business, the effects of the
strike hitting the japanese merchants
hardest. As matter of fact the main
burden of the strike is falling upon
them. in measure poetic justice, as it
was through them in a very large meas
ire that the strike became possible
Certainly it is through them that it
continues. So great has been the stress
among them that the Chiyo Maru. now
on her way here from Yokohama, is
bringing only FIVE hundred tons of
freight for this port. Importations from
| Japan have been reduced, as this will
indicate, almost to the vanishing point.
