According to the new constitution of
the club members must not be less

be approved by three members prior to

are now 81 a month.
V. Lemon, the baseballer has re-
signed from the club on account of
having resumed his studies at Kane
y, oh Doh,
has also resigned, having left for Ha-
wall, where he expects to remain for
a year.
A bin of 500 from the Hawaiian Elec-
trio Company was ordered tabled. The
account is for two lights at the clubs
headquarters, used once a month for
three months The bill caused animal
ed discussion, more especially as for
the last two months the club has had
the benefit of only one light The
company was notified to cut off the
light, and in future the club will use
oil. 1t is not a millionaire association,
and a few more such items of expense
would bankrupt the club.
S. Crook was appointed a committee
to report on proposed new headquar-
tiers in the Lincoln building. The
room is so X rs feet, and the rent want
ed is $50 a month, with lease of not
less IIlhn d year. IL lIlet pidCS lS ldh-
en- on these terms the proprietor guar
antees to spend $4,000 on suitable i'm
proVements. The idea of the Male
Ilimas is to secure the place and sub
let it for use on certain evenings in
the week to other clubs and fraternal
organizations. By this means the item
of rent will pe materially cut down.
