COVER BILLBOARD ! !. /
AND FRAZIER Is
AFTl|ERPl'AR n

A reward for information leading
to the arrest and conviction of the
persons who pasted brown wrapping
paper over posters advertising the
auto races last Saturday was offered
today by Charles R. Frazier Of the
Pioneer Advertising Company, who
declares t he will have the persons
arrested no matter who they are.
The matter has arisen over the anti
billboard fight being carried on in GER
tain quarters. Mr.. Frazier said this
morning that one of the promoters OF
the meet, after it had been represent
ed to them that if they kept the post
ers upon the billboards they could
not get all the press publicity they
wanted, came to him last Saturday
and asked him to have the posters
removed.
Il could not do it," said Frazier to-
day, because my force was quitting
for Saturday afternoon and it was
too late. | did not know, until this
morning that someone had gone
around. on Saturday presumably, and
had the posters covered with other
paper.
"This act is a tresspass on private
property and positive injury to le-
ultimate business and | shall spare
no pains to make it warm for the
people who did it."
Frazier says that the act was done
without authorization from him. He
regards it as the act probably of

CAPT. JOSSELYN TO
SPEAK AT Y. NJ. C. A.

Captain Josselyn of the bark Nuu-
anu, who has recently completed a
three hundred and forty-eight day
trip around the Horn, is making ar
engagements to deliver a lecture at
Cooke Hall in the Y. M. c. A. at which
he will narrate some of his expert
ences undergone during his recent
VOYAGES and will tell stories of his
travels.
AS a result of the many requests
that have come pouring in from all
sides that Captain Josselyn make a
public address, several churches and
societies in the city have been dis
cussing the idea of asking the old
sailor to make public address.
At present, negotiations are under
way between the Y. NJ. C. A. and the
Woman's Guild of the Episcopal
church at kaimuki and Captain JOS
selyn to persuade him to speak. This
morning he called on Secretary Super
and offered his services voluntarily
and has left further arrangements in
the hands of the association seCre-
tary.
According to Secretary Super, a
definite date for the lecture has not
been set as yet, but it will undoubt-
edly be held within the next two
weeks. If it is given under the aus
pieces OF the Episcopal church at kai-
muki, the proceeds will go to the
church. which will rent Cooke Hall
from the Y. NJ. c. A.
If tile Y. NJ. c. A. holds the lee
ture, the plan is to admit members

BuLCAR|ANS MARCH
UPON ADRIkNOPLE
Biz Battle Expected When Two
Opposing Armies Meet Be-
fore MosIem Fortress.

London-Half a million men. armed
with the deadliest of modern war Inn
Elements, are gathering around Adria-
nople. the old capital Of northern
Turkey, for what military men antici
pate will be a long, hard-fought and
bloody siege.
The Bulgarian army, estimated to
number 100000 men, reinforced by co.
900 Servians, as soon as war was de-
clared, began to fight it's way in three
columns through the mountain passes
which divide the Balkan states from
the territory of the Ottoman Empire,
and drove back the Turkish outposts,
including that at Mustapha Pasha,
only II miles from the fortress of
Adrianople.
The Turks already have 100000 men
in position, and thousands more are
arriving daily at the front. In num-
bers the two main forces when they
meet probably will be nearly equal.
A simultaneous advance is being
made by several Servian columns, and
they are making some progress, &C
cording to report. It is said in Bel,
grade that the Servians and Macedon-
fans have cut the communications be-
: tween Uskup and Saloniki, thus pre-
venting the transport of reinforce
ments for the Turkish troops at the
front.
The war is expected to develop into
q land campaign between Bulgaria
and Turkey and a naval struggle be-
tween Turkey and Greece. 1t is be-
lieved Turkey will concentrate her
strength and attack the Bulgarians
separately before the Servians come
to their aid. Much will depend on
whether Turkey gains command of
the sea, which would facilitate the
transportation of her Asiatic troops
to the theater Of war.
Little Is known as to how far the
allied Balkan states have concerted
their plans. The Independent action
of Montenegro seems to indicate that
a settled course is being followed.
