that the lligl, water mark IN pensions for

therefore, tho average will have exceeded

consIdered-there are the almost inevi-
table widow and children, and It Is shown
from the reports that seventy-f Tour per

children eligible for pensions. NO one can
say how long these may drag on. Tho

The principle OF paying the widows

and fidelity has In a shocking number

Congressional Record to see what an
enormous part OF the leg slatiye work
of that body Is taken up in passing laws
which confer pensions on individuals who
IRE not entitled 10 receive them under
the general stu tutes.
\ When the pension appropriation reached
s25, 200 900, we heard the glad tidings that
the high water mark had been reached.
Since that time pension appropriations
have run as high as sl6o 900 COG, and
though the present expenditure has
dropped to sla9 ,ooo, 900, there is vide
gulf and q long road between our present
appropriation and the high water mark
OF twenty. years ago. The simple truthi is
that the pensioner, like every one else.

GOLF CLUB
PASSES OUT
Manoa Valley Players
Perform Last Sad
Rites.

The Manoa Golf Club ceased to be
last night. being formally disbanded al
a meeting in the Young Hotel In his
final report the secretary. ". w
Thayer, recited the history of the club
since its inception in May, 1904 when
the number OF golfers in the Territory
was probably not more than fifty.
Nov" said Mr. Thayer. their num-
bers are well up in the hundreds. We
have all known that the life of the club
that its days are numbered we have
the satisfaction Of knowing that
worthy successor will take up its work
the Oahu Country Club. 1t should be
further a source of qualification TO US
that had il not been for the interest
in golf that the Manoa Golf Club has
stirred up the Country Club would not
be SO near a reality as it is at the pres
ent time. perhaps might never have
been a reality at all.
And so it is that, having passed
GA0 SCaAS VI SN~CNN~0AAA 49,
having stimulated widespread inter-
est in the game of golf and IN outdoor
sports generally, the Manoa Golf Club
passes out of existence but its works
live after it and il did not live in vain >
The report of the treasurer, j. ..
Young. shows a cash balance on hand
at the end Of May of s66.76, which will
be swelled by the addition of subse-

he has an even chance for 1906. In
1908, when the Honolulus lost to the
Kamehamehas, the loss of two games
in the ninth inning, after having big
lead, made the difference between win
ming and losing.
The Winter League begin their series
on July and it is likely that the sea,
son viii be extremely successful. The
teams are evenly matched and there is
much rivalry amongst the boys for the
coveted pennant. It is said that cup
will be put up, TO be paid for by local
subscription. Some of the teams
would require little strengthening to
play with the big fellows.

San Francisco remarked yesterday that
our local games are more interesting
