RELATES TALE OF
 SMOOTH SPINDLE
Man Has Secured. Fully $25,000 On Forged Drafts and Is still
 At Largo

Reuben M. Ellis, general agent for the M. Melachrino company, was in Birming- ham yesterday looking out for the young s25,0O0 from various merchants in the country by giving them faked or forged drafts. He unfolded story of resource fitness that he claims is unparalleled in swindling annals.
 MT. Ellis was formerly with the Ala bama Great Southern railroad here. To number of his local friends he gave the following in regard to the unknown young man who has secured s250O0 from his company:
 ''The party who was last heard of in our customers. He started out in the west about St. Paul, worked his way across the continent forging our name and then made a short circuit down the Atlantic coast. He secured his last draft in Selma.
 Although We have notified every GUS toner of the house, every detective agency in the country, the hotel keeper I and all he still remains uncaptured | He is said to be one of the smoothest men ever operating in this criminal field He formerly worked for the American Snuff company. They found he was crooked and called him in to New York to discharge him. When he reached that city he asked for a consultation with the president. He secured it and ended up by borrowing s500 and retaining his job. He has fooled some of the best and most resourceful detectives in the country and they are bewildered over the case It is my opinion that he only missed Birming- | ham because MT. Cordson was quoted as saying that he would be captured soon. l think he was here at that time, saw the morning paper and realized if he tried any games here he would be cap tured. We have several clues as to his whereabouts and are chasing him now. '
 MT. Ellis left for Chicago last night

Airman Denounced
By Shocked BritOns

in some of the decadent orgies of the
Roman amphitheater.
AS to the practical use OF the aero
plane in war, he says there never will
be any. The risk is too excessive
and the chances of holocaust too
awful. He says that the swimming of
the English channel by Captain Webb
had about as much significance from a
military standpoint as the crossing of
the channel by Bleriot and other air
men.
There is not so much vehemence in
a letter from Admiral Fremantle. yIe
says that the chief danger in the mo-
dern displays of aviation is that men
are venturing into an element with
which they are entirely unacquainted,
and they are neglecting the factor of
safety in the effort to build a machine
light enough to fly at all. He says
that there ought to be a closer official
supervision both of the construction
of machines and their use by novices
in public exhibitions.

TAKING LIQUOR
OUT OF POLITICS
DEALERS SIGN AGREEMENT TO
SUPPORT PRESENT LAW AND
KEEP OUT OF POLITICS.

The following announcement was
made yesterday by liquor Dealers
To Whom 1t May Concern:
In order that no mistaken impress
sion exist as to the political attitude
of those engaged in the liquor tlisi-
ness in Honolulu, we, the undersigned
subscribed to the following statement:
We emphatically deny any attempt
on our part, either individually or col
lectively, to seek to influence either
directly or indirectly any political
party or faction.
We believe that the people of Ha-
wall by the last territorial legislature
and the plebiscite have signifed their
approval of the present liquor law.
| And we sincerely and unreservedly
pledge our support to the preservation
of that law
Whatever activity has been shown
in local politics by individuals imme-
diately or remotely connected with the
liquor business is simply the ordinary
interest of the private citizen in the
general party welfare.
And we earnestly request that all
organized political parties in Hawaii
at their next regular conventions
adopt in their respective platforms a
plank calling for the party support and
retention of the present liquor law.

A proposal was made short time /
ago to the Anti-Saloon League that it
agree to support the present liquor
law, while the liquor men, on their
part, would agree to do the same. The
matter was debated vigorously at a
meeting of the league and the pro
posal was turned down.

HILO, August 3O,-The long cherish.
ed dream that Hilo town might have a
rapid transit system is finally begin
ming to become a realization. At re-
cent meeting of the directors of the
Hilo Electric Company the matter of
starting street railway system was
discussed.
1t was pointed out that the com
pany, under an amendment made to its
original charter some time ago. had
been given the right to use the public
streets. The directors thereupon au-
thorized the president to obtain legal
advice to ascertain what steps should
be taken to make the building of a
street railway by the company feas.

In length of wheel base, type
of motor, spring comfort and
price, the CHALMERS 1911 re-
mains the same. In point of re-
finement, finish and luxury it is
much advanced-thus giving
more than ever before, for the
same price. Proved by every
test, practical and theoretical,
the CHALMERS Car today re-
mains the WoRTHIEsT car
built in America, for a moder-
ate price.
In the manufacture of auto
mobiles, BRAIN POWER
counts for more than HORSE
POWER. Designed by one Of
the greatest Of automobile en-
glneers, the 1911 CHALMERS,
detail for detail, is the result Of
far-sighted initiative, and exec
utive ability to the extent that
the CHALMERS HAS NEVER
COPIED COMPETITORS, while
THEY HAVE ALL COPIED
THE CHALMERS.
AS a marked tribute to fore
sight In construction, the
CHALMERS will not be "rad-
icaIIy changed" or practically
a new car" for 1911, as so many
of it's competitors are. To be
sure there will be changes, but
these are simply along advanced
lines Of refinement, efficiency
and luxury.
Many Of the principles initial
ed by CHALMERS BRAINS
two and three years ago are be-
ing adopted by competitors for
the FIRST TIME In 1911, but
here again the CHALMERS
leads because In the CHALM-
ERs these principles are proved
Because Of these things, and
besides these things, the 1911
CHALMERS will give added
grace Of line, beauty of finish
and luxury in equipment at the
same price. y
