the Coast and to use special equip
ment in Strengthening out the kinks.
Naturally this has caused delay, but
even under this handicap, which to a
layman surveying the heaps Of bent
steel would seem insurmountable, the
work is being carried on with speed.
Contractor Concannon has a $4,000
plant on the ground and over 100
highly skilled and highly paid work
men are employed in the construc,
ton
The buildings for the big plant
average 800 by rs feet, the machine
shop being the largest, with 700 tons
of steel required for its construction.
The administration building, which
will be constructed OF reinforced con
crete, will require 300, 1000 feet of lum-
Der for the forms, part of which has
already arrived.
While Concannon has returned to
the mainland to look after other con-
tracts there. the work here is under
the superintendent Of his chief lieu
tenant, Tim Shea, who assembled the
contractors plant at Pearl Harbor
and put his crews to work April 2.
The machinery to be installed in
the buildings has been ordered by the
government and it is probable that
Lieutenant ]. Ellis Lando, who en-
tered the naval academy from Homo
lulu, will be the engineer in charge Of
the installation.

BOWSER'S FLY EX7ERMINATOR


That preoccupied look as Mr.. Bow
ser assembled the steps wnen he came
from the office the other evening told
Mrs. Bowser the tale of the day.
He had new scheme on hand.
1t had been seven whole days since
he had a scheme and the time was
ripe. He had a package under his
arm and this he laid on the hall
tree with the observation that he
didn't want it meddled with. He threw
out several hints during dinner and
evidently desired to be questioned,
but Mrs. Bowser had no questions to
ask. He had smoked half his after
dinner cigar and hitched all over his
chair a dozen times before he said:
MRS. Bowser, how many flies do
you suppose there were around our
house last summer"
Good lands, but what a question:"
she replied.
well, give some sort of a guess"
Ten million"
"And how many in the city"
Fifty billions"
"And in the state"
"a thousand billions"
"And in the United States"
Five thousand trillions, and then
some more. Why do you ask such
foolish questions?"
5owser's Dissertation on Pests.
"They may not be SO foolish as you
think. You know, don't you, that flies
carry the germs of disease in their
feet?"
"And that the germs thus carried
are responsible for 100000 deaths per
year? Yes, ma'am-200,000 deaths
every year, to say nothing Of half a
million cases of sickness. Why. wo-
man, even the doctors concede that
but for the house fly the medical fra
ternity would not number one-half
what 1t does now"
"And all this is preparatory to an
nouncing that you have some new
scheme on hand" said Mrs. Bowser
Woman, I never scheme" he said
az plan and experiment. but there is
no scheming."
We'll, what Is it?"
Resides the fly pest there is the
mosquito. The malarlal mosquito
killed over 100000 people of the
United States last year"
"Yes?"

STEEL FOR PEARL HARBOR WORKS
NEEDS TO Be STRENGTHENED OUT

The great industrial plant which
w. N. Concannon is erecting for the
government at Pearl Harbor, and
which will consist of a group of nine
steel and concrete buildings, is fast
assuming form. The framework OF
three giant buildings is up and riv-
eted together and practically ready
for the corrugated iron which will be
used to enclose the structures.
While it was expected that the ma
jority of the buildings would be up by
August, Contractor Concannon may
meet with delays because of the con-
dition of the steel Orders and beams
on arriving here. The steel work or
dered from Pittsburg by the govern
ment has been loaded and unloaded
six times before reaching the islands.
AS result much of it looks like a
gigantic Chinese puzzle. The great
beams tossed haphazard into the
holds of vessels have been bent and
twisted in manner which would call
to mind the condition of steel build
ings in San Francisco following the
earthquake. Great floor Orders have
been twisted like rams horns and
lighter material stacked up on the
ground resembles a heap of big cork
screws.
In order to make this steel fit for
use Contractor Concannon has been
forced to import skilled workers from

BIG FEATURE PICTURES AT
HUBIN'S, THANKSGIVING.

For Thanksgiving Day afternoon
and evening, Mgr. Muldoon has ar
ranged to give one of the most popu-
lar dramas of the motion picture
world.
Pathe's Remarkable Four-Reel Fea-
ture is a dramatic picture of wonder
full power. Depicting the wild deeds
of a reckless son, whose foolish ex-
travagance and prodigality not only
beggars his father, but kills his moth
er and sister.
False love leads the young fellow
through the black sea of dissipation
and brings his family to ruin. His
trials and tribulations finally cause
him to see the light.
How he breaks the chains that hold
him enslaved and becomes a real man
after a struggle which makes him
worthy of the name, is story which
has all the requisites of peerless
drama.
An elaborate production, acted with
consummate skill.
The wonderful acting and startling
climaxes, the emotional scenes, the
clever conceptions and natural situa-
tions stamp this great four-reel pic
ture as the grandest dramatic tri-
umph of the age.

THE PRUDENTIAL
AT THE LAND SHOW.

One of the very interesting fea-
lures of the National Land and Irri-
cation Exposition at the list Regi-
ment Armory, New York City, is the
exhibit of The Prudential Insurance
Company Of America.
First to strike the eye of the visit
ors are two immense allegorical pain
tings entitled "The Farmer Produces
Wealth; Life Insurance Saves 1t for
the Family" They run the entire
width of the Armory and are suspen-
ded from the Armory ceiling, reach
ing to the balcony rail.
A beautiful detail of the Show is
an illuminated reproduction of The
Prudential's trade mark, the Rock of
Gibraltar, in stained glass.
The statistical feature of The Pru-
dential's exhibit is a series of -29
graphic charts showing various facts
of the Company's business and expert
ence.
A card informs visitors that The
Prudential has over SAT, 100000 loan
ed in farm mortgages and has paid
$233, 100000 to policyholders.
The Company is distributing souve-
mir postcards, series of health leaflets,
booklets descriptive of policies, and
its illustrated publication "The Pru-
dential"
The Exhibit is well worth visiting.

is MINsTRELsY DECLINING?

AL. J. Fitzpatrick's Minstrels play
ing at the Palace Theatre November
% and 29, matinees and evenings,
are lively refutation Of the state
ment that minstrelsy is declining.
Mr.. Fitzpatrick in an interview the
other day said: eff minstrelsy is
dead l should say that it is very
lively corpse, as my company has
played to crowded houses, where only
two days before musical comedies
failed to attract 'Corporal's guard.
In my opinion, a minstrel company
which presents good, clean show,
devoid Of objectional speech or action,
need never cease to please the public
through lack Of patronage"
Minstrelsy, according to cal j."
was never more prosperous than it
is today and this will doubtless be
evidenced by the multitudes that will
flock to the Palace to witness this
combination Of mirth, melody and
beautiful costumes.
