The Fashionable Tennis Club
Decides to Take a New
Lease of Life.

A meeting of the Beretania Tennis
Club was held yesterday afternoon in
the parlor of the Young Mems Christian
Association, the following members be-
ing present: Messrs. Sam Woods, DON
aid Ross, Ernest Ross, E. H. Paris,
Beardmore, II. c. Austin and Noltanias.
The object of the meeting was to take
some action relative to obtaining a new
ground, the Board of Education having
notified the club to vacate their old
courts Immediately.
The committee appointed to secure a
new ground reported that their efforts
had SO far been unsuccessful.
1t was pointed out that the member
ship roll was comprised of a number
of persons who took no active part in
the existence of the club, and it was
to drop the names of non active MEM
bers from the list.
The question of whether the club
should be reorganized or disbanded was
discussed, and the former plan met with
most favor.
1t was estimated that it would cost
$500 to make a new court, this amount
included all extras, such as the erection
of back-nets, etc.
Permission will be asked from the
Board of Education to remain on the
old ground until arrangements for NOV
ing are concluded.
A meeting of the club will be held
next Thursday evening at the Young
Mems Christian Association at 7:3O
O'Clock for the purpose of recognizing.

LEGISLATURE MAY
PASS THE TAX LAW
Chief Justice Frear Says Con-
stitution of Republic
is Abrogated.

Chief Justice Frear gave some inter-
esting information yesterday with ref
erence to the question whether the
constitution of the Republic of Hawaii
had been intended to be kept in force
or abrogated by the Organic Act At
torney General Dole in an opinion on
the tax question published in the Adj
vertiser yesterday held that the consti-
tuition was no longer in force and Chief
Justice Frear states that that was the
intention of Congress.
When the Hawaiian Commission was
drafting the Organic Act" said he yes
terday, there was some doubt at first
as to the ACCESSIBILITY of keeping the
constitution in force. At first it was
thought best to continue it in force and
then as we went along it was decided
to abrogate the whole constitution and
insert such portions as we had formerly
thought of retaining in force into the
Organic Act. That is why Section
and 6 of the Organic Act seem to in
dictate an intention to retain the con-
stitution in force and explains the
seeming inconsistency of these sections
with Section Z.
"As to the matter of retrospective
legislation it may be said that in the
4 constitution of the Republic of Hawaii
there was a provision forbidding any
legislation of that kind. We had re-
tanned that section in the Organic Act
but when the Organic Act was being
discussed in the Senate committee 1t
was judged best to eliminate 1t. I was
before the committee at the time and I
stated that such provisions were to be
found in the constitutions of several of
the States, but 1t was stricken out new
ertheless In the House committee this
provision was retained, but when 1t
came to the final adoption of the Act
the provision was left out. So it is my
opinion that there is no doubt of the
right of the Legislature to pass retro
spective laws"

A GERMAN PASTIME.

An OK race Is held annually in many
of the provincial districts of Germany.
The entry fee for the race is very small,
but each OK entered must be ridden by
Its owner. Furthermore, the rider is
not allowed to have either whip or
spurs, and depends entirely upon his
voice to guide the beast 1t is here that
the skill of the rider comes into play,
as everything depends on the training
OF the OK and the ability of the owner
TO direct its movements. despite the
distracting noises of the other Compel
itors. As the oxen do not race on
track. to direct them is no easy mat
ter. The rider who can force his lum-
bering steed to go in a straight line is
certain to win.-Meat Trades Journal

Editor Advertiser: Listen, now, If you
want to hear what the housewives have

SO well what must often be laid at the
door of inefficient service, and all the
perplexities entailed thereby, that have
hao the very greatest sympathy with and
for Mr.. Cassidy, and that very sympathy
and regard for MIR. Cassidy, because of
the uniform courtesy with which he has
sought for years now to give the public
the best in his line it was possible for
him to give-this, 1 say, is why house
wives have held their peace so long.
On just his account have a host OF his
