Especial Dispatch 10 The Call

WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.-That the
deft hand of Japan took a part in
crushing in its incipiency the diplo-
matte career of Charles r. Crane in the
orient is now regarded as one of the
strongest probabilities in connection
with the mysterious affair.
The best that Crane and his friends
can make of the very precipitate con-
duct of Secretary Knox is that there
was deep political intrigue behind it,
In the calm that has ensued since
President Taft regretted" but con
Cured" a thoughtful analysis has led
to the conclusion in many important
circles that it was Japan that found
fault with public utterances and the
Chicago newspaper article in which
Crane had some responsibility
1t is thought that Tokyo, watching
the Manchurian situation with eagle
eyes, found occasion to call the atten-
ton of the state department to the dis
turbance that the Chicago publication
and the dinner addresses had made in
the empire and that was enough, for,
after all. handing out redhot speeches"
doesn't fit into the diplomatic game.

SUFFRAGETTE BANNER
FLIES ON PIXIES PEAK

COLORADO SPRINGS, December IA.
"A black flag, bearing the legend,
Votes for Women" is defying win
ter's blasts on the summit of. Pixies
Peak. 1t was placed on the top of
the peak shortly before the cog road
closed for the winter, by Mrs. Helen
Refine Baker, of Spokane, Washington,
the noted suffragette leader who was
one of the eight delegates to the inter
national convention of women held in
London last spring. The flag was sup
piled by Mrs. o. 2. H. Belmont of New
York, and its placing on Colorado s
most famous mountain is particularly
significant because this was one of the
first states to adopt equal suffrage.

A stringed instrument indigenous to
Hawaii is the ukulele. diminutive gui-
tar. often COMPOUNDED with the ''taro
patch fiddle" giving out strains of
music associated only with the moon
light nights, luaus and hulas of the
tropics. One is inseparable from the
other. for luau without the strains OF
this popular instrument would be as
void of pleasure as If served without
poi.
And a winning feature of this in
strument is the fact that any one can
learn to play it, and it can be used
for American music. Its inventor is NJ.
Nunes. whose portrait is shown above,
and he has been making ukuleles for
the trade almost continuously since he
invented it in 1879. They were in the
palace of the king and queen and homes
of chiefs That il has been success,
this invention, is proven by the display
in every music store and curio shop IN
the country.
The inventor now feels that he will
derive more profit from his labor by
establishing himself in store in town
where he can display his wares. He has
sons who have inherited from their
father the ability TO Judge sound and
the talent for music he possesses. Be
ginning January Ist he Will associate
his sons with him in business in one O.
the stores in the Kapiolani building on
Alakea street where a stock of superior
instruments of the string variety Will
be on sale It will include the celebrated
4" Nunes Ukulele," best of all instru-
ments under this name, as well as taro
patch fddles and guitars. The ukuleles
viii be made under the direct super
vision of the inventor and customers
may feel confident of getting the best
that IS built.
