Again the residents of Vermont have
voted on the question as to whether
the saloon should be opened in their
town and the result indicates de-
crcusing popularity of the licensed sa
loon as Il Vermont institution. Re-
turns have been received from each
county but in some cases they are
very incomplete. These returns show
that total of SO towns and cities
voted to grant licenses to saloons the
coming year against a total of 4O
towns and cities last year. The towns
to he heard from are small ones and
will not materially affect the result
A study Of the figures will show that
in many places where license was
voted the majOrities for the saloon
are greatly reduced. n striking ex-
ample of this being Burlington which
reduced its majority of S45 last year
20 235 this year. The anti-saloon ad-
herents made stiff fight in Mont
pelier aud st. Adams but the license
forces won. Two of the greatest sur
prizes were the change Of Barre to no
license and Kutland's return to license
No license towns are reported in the
returns received from Caledonia, Or
leans and Orange counties. but the
figures for Orleans county are incom-
plcte.

MARINES
BEAT 10TH
The Soldiers Field Day
at Kapiolani
Park.

A rafting good game OF baseball was
played at Kapiolani Park yesterday
afternoon by the 10th Infantry and
Marines, following Immediately after
the field day sports Of Camp Mckinley.
It was an eleven-inning game and end
ed with the score of 10 to in favor Of
the Marines. The last three innings
were exciting, the rooters fairly crowd
ing upon the diamond to urge the
players on TO wonderful feats with the
sphere and willow.
Considering that the 10th Infantry
We're playing against a team which had
Desha in the box, the soldiers pat
themselves on the back. They believe
they are so entitled especially as in
the 9th inning when the score was 5
to in favor of the marines, they bat
ted Desha up in good shape and tied
the score But after that series OF
errors on the part OF the soldiers play
ed havoc with them and they went
down in defeat
The teams played the following n7er:

HEAL-ANI
OFFICERS
Election Was Held Last
Night at the
Clubhouse.

The annual meeting OF the Heaiani
Boat and Yacht Club took place last
night at the clubhouse, about thirty
members being present. President c.
l. Crabbe presided. The following off,
GERS were elected TO serve the ensuing
year:
President, c. L. Crabbe, vice presi-
dent. F. R. Damon: secretary. Robt.
McCorriston; treasurer, Carl c.
Rhodes; auditor. s. A. Walker: COM
u1odore. Merle Johnson: vice commo-
dore, Ben Clarke: captain, Bert He'll
hron: vice captain, Paul Jarrett.
The secretary reported thirty-two
new members joining during the past
year and eight designations.
The treasurer reported a lengthy list
of receipts and expenditures. Little
money is in the treasury, but the club
has the satisfaction OF knowing that
many of its ''dead-horse" bills are paid
of, besides a part of a large note held
by one Of the banks. The club. as a
whole, shows a healthy financial con-
dition. and nearly all debts will be ex-
plunged during the coming year.
| A bylaws was changed whereby the
junior age-limit is placed at twenty
years instead of sixteen. Heretofore q
boy on becoming sixteen, had to pay
adult dues. As many of the boys con-
tinue in school until they are twenty
years old, and do not earn anything in
that time. the payment of 81 a month
dues is rather heavy. They will now
pay so cents a month. That is, all new
members under twenty will pay that
amount.
Former Captain Walker reported that
the year had not been successful for
the Blues in the boating way. but fnan-
cially, it had been. \ new barge is
needed if anything is expected of the
Blues this season. The shells are in
splendid condition, except the English
shell which needs some repairs. A new
set of racing oars is needed at once.
The captain recommended a fresh
| men crew for the Pearl Harbor races.
President Crabbe thanked the MEM
bers for the honor of re-electing him.
He hoped to see a, steady advance in
interest the coming year. On behalf
of the club he thanked Messrs. Frank
Armstrong and sam Walker for their
excellent work in making the Water
Carnival and the benefit performance
| of The Serenade" so successful. He
also thanked Pete Barron, the former
janitor, for his fine work and willing
ness to help the boys at all times.

and McGlade brought him home. In the
third inning Fenner went 10 first on

Davis, as he is known in the marine
barracks, stole TO second and then
sneaked on 10 third, a performance
which brought him applause He was
brought home by a swatter to right
field. With three bases filled up Hag-
ner unfortunately popped fly to the
right fielder.
Again in the seventh the Marines
scored, McGlade coming home on Davis
hit over second-base. In the last in

view OF the situation and shouted
themselves hoarse-
In the eleventh inning Desha got to
first on a short hit and that filled the
bases A fly to right-field was caught
and then began a merry race home Of
the three men on bases. One got in
safely and then a grounder bounded
over Van Vliet's head at short-stop
ana that let in two more runs. Two
additional runs were rolled UP and
Fenner became disheartened and pitch
ed easy balls which were picked off by
the Marine willows every time.
