Once there was a CRATER who would

During this Season of Depression
the accomplished City CRATER decided
that ne would go out among the Jays

He had a Scheme for coaxing Money

SENATE GETS A MESSAGE
ACTING GOVERNOR ON PROPOSED
NEW LOAN.
Says That Under Law of 1896 The sum
of S199OO0 May be Borrowed--To Judi
ciary Committee.

Acting Governor Cooper yesterday ef-
ternoon submitted to the Senate a mes
sage in which he stated that it was
within the power Of he Legislature to
incorporate in the appropriation bill a
provision for a loan IF S1J9 900 to re-
imburse the current receipts account
During the last biennial period he loan
fund withdrew from the current re-
ceipts the amount indicsted under the
law of 1896. Under this same law it APP
pears that unless changed in the regu-
lar way the obligation between the
funds is perpetuated, and that the Loan
at this time has full legal effect.
There were motions and cou ltor mo
lions in regard to printing the message.
Cecil Brown was of the opinion that the
reasoning was sound and that bonds
could follow a mere admission into the
bill of a line providing therefor. There
was no question but that the law OF
1896 supplied complete authority fol
the bonds.
Senator Achi wanted to refer the mat
ter to the judiciary committee. The
principal reason for this was that the
whole question rested with the bank
ers Bankers were a Clannish set. Cecil
Brown and II. Z. Baldwin were on the
committee and if after investigation.
they said the scheme was all right the
money could be secured on the bonds,
IL tIcN ut'lutu dSdluI the DOnuS Jndl
would settle it, for every banker and
every investor in the city would follow
their lead.
There was disposition on both sides
of the house in favor of the message.
On the Independent side it was plainly
evident that there was a desire for a
haven from the crash that must follow
failure to provide some additional
means of revenue for the next two
years. The Republican side of the
house is easily unanimous on the side of
inserting the item IN the bill as sug-
gested.
The message was sent TO the Judi
ciary committee for legal analysis, the
committee stating that it would before
reporting, consult with the Attorney
General in regard to the matter.
The Senate will almost certainly in
sert the item, or items, as the case may
be. What the House may do is another
question. The judiciary committees or
both houses are satisfied, with the in
formation they now have in ha ID, that
the government may be given the power
TO borrow up to the sum indicated by
the Acting Governor.

SCHOOL MATTERS AGAIN.
The Senate Devotes Afternoon to the
Subject.


School matters again occupied the at
tention of the Senate again yesterday
afternoon. In the morning the commit
tee spent more than an hour at the Of
flee of the Department of education, in
curing infinitely into the matters refer
red to it. A majOriy and minority re-
port were prepared and both were sub
mitted in the afternoon. Neither was
adopted, some of the Senators wishing
another day TO think over the matter.
The principal hitch was in the mat
ter of the salaries of four normal in
spectors. DR.. Russell wished to make it
five, giving two to the island of Ha-
wall in place of one, on the plea that
the island is very large one and not
easily covered by one man. He also
wanted to make the inspectors school
agents as well, requiring them 10 look
after the business of the schools in
their respective districts. Cecil Brown
and Achi, for the majority of the COM
mitteee, wished to pass the item as in
the bill-four inspectors at $4,000 each,
$24 600. John r. Brown and Kaluoka-
lani favored striking out the item al
together and inserting another provid-
ing for only one inspector. The former
dilated upon the efficiency of the sys-
TEN in the old days when there was but
one Inspector.
Both sides of the committee agreed
that the Superintendent should be paid
$3,962.50 for back salary between June
IA, 1900 and April l, 1901. on motion
when the reports were being considered
the item passed as Indicated The en-
tire committee also agreed to a total
appropriation of 5000, 900 for support of
schools. They had gone carefully over
the departments plans and estimates
and found them to be as conservative
as possible. Achi, who had favored a
reduction to $685., 900, changed his mind
and agreed to the larger amount.

IT WAS TOUCHING.
A Rife Contest That Surprised a Crack
Shot.

Two Honolulu men recently had an
argument on rifle shooting which even
tuated in a challenge to shoot a match
for a bottle of Pomerey Sec.
The challenger being a member of
the team which lately won the Nc
Carthy trophy and defeated Company f
in a match, generously Offered his oppo-
nent a bonus of 4 points which was
accepted with much thanks. The other
party not being a member of Company
b and not knowing the difference be-
tween a Springfield and a Lee Reming-
ton, thought it best to make overtures
to the marker at the range which he
did with such success that the crack
rifle shot was defeated by 3 points. The
victim of the joke now walks round on
his heels and wonders how 1t happen
ed, and the victor tells all sorts of
yarns about the scores he has made
