tional ability is now open on
Hotel street, between Bethel and Fort

lighting facilities have been secured
by the manager of this new gallery and
he expects to be able to make portraits
that will excel any work now being
done in Honolulu. Besides doing reg

reputation among kodakers for de-

of this new concern announces that
contrary to the present practice among

for outside views without making any
extra charge. Another feature Of pho

billboard BLIGH1.

Los Angeles, Cal, is a city of beau
tiful homes. Great taste is displayed
by its citizens in planning their resi-
dences and laying out their grounds.
They have succeeded beyond the peo-
pie of most cities in making the en-
virons attractive. The artistic touch
Is everywhere observable, and IL is
real pleasure to stroll through the
charming avenues of the city. Or it
would be, were it not for one thing.
The billboard blight is upon Los An
geles. Whether it is due to a more
general invasion by the city desecra-
tor, or is only apparently more pro-
nounced by reason of the general
beauty of the community, IT would
be difficult to say, but at all events
Los Angeles appears to be suffering
more acutely from the billboard
eyesore than most other cities. It is
not surprising, therefore, to find one
of it's newspapers saying: ut is one
of the mysteries that in a city
that courts its beauty as one of
its chief assets, that spreads its
invitation far and wide, soliciting all
the world to come and taste the at
fractions of this paradise, public SEN
timent should be so inert, resolution
at so low an ebb and intelligence so
blind as to tolerate the billboards
and supinely suffer their multiplied
ton, that private greed may profit at
public cost"
This language may be applied with
great appropriateness to practically
all American communities. Many of
them, perhaps, have less than Los
Angeles to complain of on this score,
but it Is entirely a matter of degree.
There would be more beautiful cities
in America if the billboard blight
were eradicated.
One thing will do it. Municipal or
dinances and state laws have been
tried and found to be unequal to the
task. The rights of property" rise
up and invalidate them. Public opin-
ion, however, can remedy the evil,
and remedy it speedily, if it will. The
use of billboards that VIGOROUSLY
disfigure neighborhoods should be re-
garded as an offense against public
policy and public decency. The Of
fensive billboards will disappear the
moment patronage of them is aban-
doned, Patronage of them will be
abandoned the moment people brand
such patronage as disgraceful.

Cotton mill owners in New England,
to whom the trade with the Orient for
merly was an exceedingly important
and profitable feature of their business
annually, are interested in a despatch
from Washington today attributing the
decline in the export of United States
cotton goods to the far east to COM
petition from Japan.
That the inroads of Japan on the cot
ton market of the United States in
China are rapidly forcing the Cotton

goods to accept the Republican doc

ern cotton mills, one of which sold its
entire output at Hongkong, and the
other at Shanghai, China. A few years
ago these mills made a profit of from
20 to 70 per cent a year. If we had
not accumulated a large surplus in both
instances, the inroads of the Japanese
would have driven us into bankruptcy,
as has happened to nearly every south
ern cotton mill engaged in the Chinese
trade.
What happened? About eight years
ago the Japanese went into the cotton
manufacturing business. The japanese
government loaned capital at 8 per cent
while we paid per cent; it gave free
sites to cotton mills; it hauled supplies
free on government railroads. the Jap

JAPANESE COTTON GOODS
CROWD OUT AMERICAN MAKES

Chinese trade, and have had to turn
our attention to the manufacture of a
higher grade of cotton goods than the
Japanese now produce. TO do this
we had to dispose of S125,O00 worth OF
machinery as junk, for which we re-
ceived $4,000. This is the story be-
hind this socalled progress in the cot
ton mills of the South
These conditions, he added, we're
making the southern cotton manufac-
turers protectionists, regardless of po-
litics The only other alternative he
could see to help the American cotton
manufacturer against the inroads OF
the foreigner was to place an embargo
on the export of raw cotton, force
down railroad rates to inland points
where cotton manufacturers are To-
Gated, relax the labor laws so that
children of any age could be employed
for any length of working day at
wages equal to those paid in Japan,
which averages 20 cents less than in
the cotton mills of the United States,
and substitute steamers to carry the
goods.
The trade with China, which the
South had a few years ago with the
Orient in Iow-grade cotton goods,
amounted to more than $25,OOO,OOO a
year. For the first eight months OF
this year the trade with China was less
than $S,000,000, while with Japan it
amounted to only $1O14O.

In other words, he is tired of living
because he has to pay taxes on his
income, and he breads to die because
his son would have to pay taxes on
the inheritance.
Thus the duke.
What would John Churchill, the
smooth, willy founder of the house OF

descendant of his?

JEFF TAKES 100000 VOLTS OF
ELECTRICITY TO GET IN SHAPE

New York, Nov. 15.-Jim Jeffries de-
Glars that electricity is working won
ders with his crooked arm and in a
few months his massive paw will hang
naturally at his side. JEFF took the
treatement last night and DR.. De Kraft
sent 100000 volts swishing through his
body double the amount he received
a few nights ago.
First of all Jeffries rolled up the
sleeve of his right arm and placed
the barred elbow into a sort of cleo
trio bakeoven. The doctor explained
to Jeff that there was nothing the mat
ter with the tendons of his elbow.
but that the large inside muscle had
contracted when he allowed the arm to
get cold after pitching nine innings
OF a ball game in Los Angeles
1t became necessary therefore to
heat the elbow thoroughly, so that the
muscle would expand, before the cleo
tricity was sent through it. Jeffries
held the arm in the little oven fully
three-quarter of an hour. until the
perspiration ran down his face in
streams The arm properly heated the
doctor wired two thin metal plates and
then bent them around each elbow. the
plates in turn bound tightly with lone
cloth bandages.
Current Reaches 100000 volts.
Jeffries then took his seat in the
wicker rocking chair the wires were
attached to the batteries and the cur
rent was turned on. The force of the
voltage shook his entire frame and his
right arm throbbed violently and was
lifted into the air. The noise caused
by the spark was deafening The cur
rent was increased gradually until tbs
doctor turned and said:
-Four hundred thousand volts"
The writer meekly suggested to tht
doctor that there were six or sever
people in New York who were inclined
to pooh-pooh the idea OF Jeffries OIL
