Mr.. EMMELUTH ON
OFFICIAL BONDS

Editor Advertiser: The treasurer
must give $250,00O bonds the tax as
SCISSOR anywhere from $4,000 to double
that amount Such are some of the
vagaries of the freak bill enacted as
law for county government which,
on casual reading, develops similar
inconsistencies on nearly every page
of the pamphlet containing the enact
ment.
1 know of no State or Territory un-
der our flag that attempts the pre-
posterous conditions making it neces-
sary to bond two officers for practical
case 1t is hard to get away from the
environment of the past in paving the
way for the requirements of the future.
The routine duties of tax assessor
under conditions obtaining on the
mainland include assessment of the
properties in the county,-entering up
the assessments against each person
subject to taxation in an assessment
sbook--each assessment blank bearing
consecutive number corresponding to
the one on its stub and the totals car
ried forward from stub to stub so that
the total on the stub containing the
last entry is the sum total of the as
Sessments.
This done, the assessor turns over
this book to the treasurer who receipts
for the total assessment, charging
himself Herewith on his books.
The assessor turns in his receipt TO
the Board of Supervisors and it is filed
with the county clerk as a check
against the assessment list in the
treasurer's hands.
The treasurer collects the taxes and
is responsible at all times for the diff
ference between the total of assess
ments still on the roll and the sum
total as receipted for to the tax asses
sor. At the end of his term of office
he simply hands over to his successor
any residue of uncollected taxes and
balances his books with the incoming
treasurer's receipt.
By this method the assessor is re-
lieved of the onus of having to collect
the assessments that he makes and
incidentally of the necessity of giving
bonds.
We don't any of us know it all, Mr..
Editor, but a consistent putting to-
gether of heads with the intent of Gre
ating equitable conditions would help
US wonderfully in working out of the
perp;exities and vagaries, in the
mesaes of which we now seem to be
fioundering politically.
Yours for Equal Rights,
JOHN EMMELUTH.

TIE GAME NOT
YET DETERMINED

At present it is a question as to
whether the football championship of
this year will be settled. Affairs are
in rather an indefinite shape, especially
with the Punahous. The League de-
.cided that the Punahou-H. A. c. game
should be played off next Saturday.
The H. A. G. team has been practicing
constantly since the last game, but Pu-
nahou broke training and has not yet
resumed it. The Honolulus as a whole
are anxious to play and are very con-
f1dent as to the result of the next game,
but in some quarters there is a willing
ness TO let the tie stand and play it off
next year.
1t is practically up to Punahou to
decide what is to be done. The League
set the game for Saturday, and their
opponents are ready to play at that
time.
Whether Punahou can get into con-
ditfon again with four days practice
remains to be seen. Unless arrange
ments can be made whereby the tie
will not be played this year, it looks as
though Punahou must either forfeit or
play. A decision will probably be
reached today or tomorrow.

ENDEAvORER CLARK
WILL ARRIVE LATE

Much has been upset by the notice
/, that the Sierra will be behind her GUS
/ tomary schedule. Notice from Irwin
& Co. makes it clear that the distin-
guished Esndeavorer, Father Clark, will
not arrive here much before noon. In
that event all arrangements for the
day are off. In some respects, the
change will be beneficial to the inspira-
ton which the city may obtain from
Mr.. Clarks visit. There is much great
er probability of a large audience in the
evening than in the afternoon. All the
ministers of the city have cheerfully
acquiesced in the change in their pro-
gram for the Week of Prayer. The

Endeavor will have right of way OIL
"wednesday night at 73O o'clock The
plan so far is to have every society rep
resented, and the exercises will in
clude roll call in all probability
whereby DR.. Clark will have the OPP
portunity to note the strength of the
city union as well as the cosmopolitan
character of its membership.
The schools have been invited, the
boarding schools under management
friendly to the form of work represented
by Christian Endeavor. Much is ex-
pected in the way of singing from Tho
presence of the scholars of KamehaIne-
ha, whose glee club is to sing. OF
course the occasion will not be perfect
without the ''Chautauqua Salute so
every body is warned that the ceremony
consists of the waving of handkerchief
at the concerted signal. The people on
the platform are responsible for the
right time to salute" AS to the gath
ering on the wharf, much has already
been said in the papers, but emphasis
is laid on the Importance of wearing
the colors all day. Badges have been
provided and are distributed among the
various societies and it is hoped that Ill!
Endeavorers and their friends will come
out lin flying colors.''
The meeting is to be in the Central
Union Church and Mr.. Kincaid will
preside.

A DINNER AND
GIFTS OF SILVER

On Friday evening Mr.. and Mrs. F.
Meyer of Waianae were entertained to
dinner by the white employees of the
plantation.
The occasion was also used to per-
petuate in more lasting and tangible
form, the esteem in which they are held
by the employees. by the presenting
of two very handsome pieces of silver
plate suitably engraved.
DR.. Mcmillan, in a few well-chosen
remarks, voiced the sentiments of all
the subscribers in making the presenta-
ton to Mr.. Meyer of silver salver
and fruit dish.
Mr.. Meyer on behalf of himself and
wife returned thanks in a graceful
speech. A very pleasant evening was
spent with music and dancing.

A Well
Developed
Form

A good set of muscles is one of the
most excellent qualifications which any
person can possess. There is no posi-
ton in life for which they unfit one, and
there is none which they will not enable
one to fill to better advantage than he
otherwise could do. There are thous-
and and one emergencies in life in which
strong, vigorous, and well-trained mus
Giles are of enormous service, and in
which their use may be of incalcuable
value. Proper physical culture gives,
not only Increased physical strength, but
greater dexterity, suppleness, and grace
of movement. The person who walks
with ahuffling, swaying, and awkward
gait, does so, not on account of any
original defect in his physical makeup,
but through the weakness of certain
muscles which, by disuse, have become
unable to do their part in the act of
walking, and so render him unable to
perform it in an easy and graceful man
ner. The trained gynnast exhibits a
lightness and elasticity of movement inn
possible to an individual who has not
had the benefit of physical training at
the WOODS INSTITUTE.

ANOTHER MEET
OF BOYS BRIGADE

Two years ago there was most sue
cessfuI meet held under the auspices
of the Boys Brigade. It has been de-
cided to have another. this time on the
new grounds Of course the right sort
of track has to be arranged for, and
it is proposed to have a real fast
track" Some good Island records were
made two years ago and there is no
reason why some excellent results may
not be attained from time to time.
A company of gentlemen, known to
be interested in track athletics and field
events, We're called together to consult
with the authorities of they Boys Bri-
gade field: among those invited were
Allan Dunn, Jesse Woods, P. NJ Nc
Mahon and Clifton Tracy The prfn-
cipal matters under discussion were the
details of track construction. OF course
the materials must be cinders, the top
dressing at least. Then the width of
the track and the best size of the oval
We're discussed. 1t was thought best to
make the track a sixth of a mile which
is the length lit is understood) of the
celebrated Berkeley Oval-one of the
best in America. A prominent con-
structor has been interviewed and it is
believed that first rate track can be
constructed in month.
The management propose to offer
handsome cup as a trophy to be COM
peted for until the successful club have
won for three successive seasons. This
is to stimulate sustained effort and put
this fine form of athletics on a per-
manent basis. Letters of invitation
will be written to the prominent ath-
letic clubs though it is believed that
others than those receiving letters, and
some clubs not now in existence, will
enter men for the events. The date can
not be definitely settled upon, but it will
be ahead of the baseball season, and is
not likely to be much later than the
last of February. It therefore behooves
the various athletic clubs of the city
to take this as a notice and begin their
preparations. A permanent committee
will be chosen from among the repre-
sentative sportsmen of the city, to have
entire charge of the arrangements.
The character of the Field Day is as
sured by the personnel of the men who
have the interests of the boys of the
city at heart, as we'll as by the expert
ence of the leaders they have had no
difficulty hitherto in inducing to take
control.
announcements may be looked for
soon in the papers as to further par
ticulars.

UNIVERSITY EXTENSION
COURSE.
series Of Six Lectures on Plays of Shakes
peare IL Proposed.

\ meeting was held in the Wright
House parlors on Wednesday afternoon to
converse the question of the desirability
and possibility of sustaining a course of
six lectures on the plays of Shakespeare.
The value of such a course can hardly
be questioned, 1t would furnish a
stimulus 10 study and open up new
avenues of thought. The treatment of
the subject is popular rather than
technical. a study class is conducted
by the lecturer for the benefit of those
who have time and inclination for close
study. The lectures would be given
every two weeks. The fee for the course
of six lectures is 81. Sufficient encour-
agement has been given 10 the project
20 justify an earnest effort 20 realize it
and such an effort will be made during
the coming week. 1t is hoped that a
generous response will be made by all
interested in the matter 10 the end that
Alma may secure such course of
lectures.

us that it was invented by Charles

at the same time.
However, an English chemist had
made an ounce of the liquid in 1888 to
satisfy himself that it could be made,
he then set it upon the shelf and said
cost him $1,000
Mr.. Rockwell explained the process
