SEASON WILL OPEN SATURDAY
OF NEXT WEEK.
League Teams are Doing Faithful
Practice Work-Honolulus and Uni
ons Have the First Brush.

The schedule for the baseball games
arranged for the coming season has
finally been decided upon. a meet
ing of the representatives of the's sew
eral League teams was held this
noon. Captain James Thompson of
the Honolulus, Manager Fred Goudie
of the Unions and Captain German of
the Regiment club, were the official
delegates.
1t was the unanimous opinion that
the season should not open next Sat
urday. Besides the teams being out
of practice, it would seem unfair to
interfere with the race meet.
The first game of the season will
take place on April 10th, the Honolu-
lus and Unions competing. The other
games will be played according to the
following schedule:
April 23-Union VS. Regiment.
April 3O--Regiment VS. Honolulu.
May Honolulu VS.. Union

The Commerce Committee in the
Senate this morning reported favor
ably a substitute bill providing for Ii
censes to sell wine, ale and beer of low
alcoholic strength. The bill is aimed
at the Illicit selling of ''swipes" and
other vile compounds. 1t provides for
the issuance of not more than three
licenses in each judicial district, but
none shall be issued for place with
in three miles of the postotlice. These
licenses shall be for the sale at retail
of wines not exceeding twenty per
cent in alcoholic strength and beer
and ale not exceeding eleven per cent.
| Licenses shall be issued only on the
| endorsement of a majority of the re-
! sponsible residents of the district
! The license fee shall be 5000 Il year,
| Saloons are to be open only from 5
in the morning to at night on week
days. No sales are to be made to ha-
bitual drunkards. No other liquors
than those authorized to be sold shall
be kept on the premises. The license
shall be issued only to the person who
is to actually conduct the business.
The majority report is signed by
Senators Holstein and Schmidt. 1t
states that the bill is submitted after
'having the assistance of the jobbers
and retailers of spirituous liquors, as
well as the advice, suggestions and
the recommendation of the Attorney
| General.
'We pray that the original bill he
laid on the table. The report of the
Marshal and the respective sheritis
show that the Illicit selling of spiritu-
Gus liquors are being carried on with,
out being checked in the outer dis
tricts, and that some legislation GOV
ering the grounds mentioned in the
measure should be enacted.
"The free importation of California
wines, was temperance measure
and such licenses as these will insure
the masses in the outer districts
against the drinking of such stuff, as
now are illicitly sold. Moreover the
licensees will be the detectOrs of H.
Iicit sellers, who will as a matter OF
course protect themselves and the
Government from any infraction ot
, their rights"

ommending the bill, says in a sup

FARMERS CAN MAKE POULTRY
PAY.

There In no reason why the farmer
should not have something for sale
from his poultry yard every week in
the year, says q Dakota paper. There
are times when the hens will not lay
because they are in the moulting Gtage,
which takes away about three months
in the year, mostly during July, August
and September, OF perhaps beginning
and ending later. As eggs will then
not be plentiful the chicks should then
be made fat and sent to the markets.
The poultry buIineNS permits % some
thing coming in all the time, which
provides the capital for operating the
business After one has become eStab-
lished in the poultry business the re
ceipts should exceed the expenses every

It is suggested that each city estab-

occasional visits to the diaries when
not expected, and see that the COWS,
stables, attendants, vessels, ETC., are
kept clean, that only wholesome feed
is given and only healthy COWS kept.

It was found that a change from a dry
