kAHULUI LADIES' AUXILIARY
e DINNER AND DANCE,

On the evening of July 14th, the
Kahului Ladies' Auxiliary gave a
dinner and dance on the Tennis
Court at Kahului, which was unani-
mously pronounced one of the fin
est and most successful affairs ever
given on Maui. The grounds were
lighted by hundreds of japanese
lanterns and the effect was delight
full, giving the whole scene a look
of Fairyland. No music is sweeter
than the native music of these Is
lands and the Paia Orchestra put
the finishing touch to it all and left
nothing to be desired.
The dinner was excellent and
well served by the charming ladies
of the Auxiliary and their assis.
tants. 1t was well managed af-
fair and showed the master hand
at the helm and we hope it will be
repeated soon. The object of the
entertainment was to raise funds
to be used in connection with the
proposed church to be erected in
Kahului.

COUNTY WINS MANDAMUS
CASE.

Oahu County, aided by Maui
has won its fight on the delinquent
tax proposition. Judge De Bolt
issued writ of mandamus order
ing Territorial Auditor Fisher to
issue q warrant in favor of the
County for $17,639.3S, being the
sum claimed by Oahu for collec-
tions of delinquent taxes, IN which
the Territory claimed that the
County had no share. The decision
of the Judge was lengthy one,
with much quotation of law.
In his final argument Deputy
Attorney General Prosser figured
that the County has an interest in
very big sum, if the .Countys
contententions are correct. The
delinquent taxes amount to about
$4,000 per year, and the Territory
has the right of collection for SIX
years after delinquency. Conse-
quently. allowing for sums collec7
ted. the delinquencies amount t2
about 100000, and if collections
are made the County has a right'to
half, or 100000. However, there
is not a great deal of chance OF any
such sum being collected, most OF
the old delinqencies being uncoi-
lectable.
Judge De Bolt refused to hear
testimony of legislators as to what
they had understood to be the in
tent of the law, holding that testi'
mony on the subject was not adj
missible. Three senators, it is un.
derstood, were ready to testify and
to produce memoranda to show
that the legislature did net near
what the act says in somewhat
plain terms, but their testimony
was not produced, the court hold
ing that the act could not be con
strued by such means.
The Judge said he had failed t(
discover anything in the act ex
cepting from its provisions taxes
which were delinquent before th'
County was organized. The open

MRS. MARY BORBA DIES AFTER
LONG SUFFERING.

Sunday evening, at six o'clock
the people of Wailuku were appris-
ed of the sad news of the death of
Mrs. Mary Borba, beloved wife of
Mr.. Antoine Borba, an old resident
and business man of Maui.
The deceased had been under
medical treatment during the past
year, and although very sick her
end was not so soon expected.
Hours before she was seen cheer
fully talking with her family and
friends, when at six o'clock she
died almost unexpectedly in the
arms of her husband who was at
the time assisting her about the
room.
Mrs. Borba was fifty years of age
and had been married little over
thirty years. She leaves besides
a husband, two sons and five
daughters, two of whom are now
married; one Mrs. Antoine Fernan-
des of Kahului, and the other Mrs.
Miguel Paresa of Wailuku.
The funeral was held on Monday
afternoon and interment took place
at the Catholic Cemetery. A large
number of friends followed the
hearse to the grave. A platoon Of
Wailuku police also accompanied
the body. - 30

New York, Feb. 13.-President John
Mitchell of the United Mine Workers
of America, who arrived here Sunday
night to prepare for the conference
on Thursday between the mine work
ers of the anthracite region and their
employers, spent the day arranging
his program for the meeting.
The miners president brought with
him from indianapolis a large trunk
filled with documents and statistics re,
lating to the hard coal industry in
Pennsylvania, which he will use at
the conference. He remained in his
room at the Ashland House practically
all day and had no visitors of any
prominence.
Mr.. Mitchell declined to discuss the
anthracite coal situation so far as it
related to the miners union in ad-
vance of the meeting with the opera

conditions in the West. He is keep

A SURPRISING SURPLUS.

For January the governments RI.
celpts have been 100000 more than

ing showing. January IL always u

paid on bonds In this month. Much
of the deferred payments on contracts
provided for by regular appropriations
by congress Is made In January. IL 10
the beginning OF the second half OF tho
fiscal year. and new OUTLAWS OF one
sort and an Their for tho governments
routine work are generally heavy In
this month, as they have been this
year. Yet there is balance OF ST..
100000 on the right side OF tho &C.
count.
With nearly seven months expired
Of the fiscal year, the treasury deficit
Is down to 100000. IL was $4,000,
900 for the corresponding period Of the
fiscal year which ended on June 30,
1905. There was a reduction OF 3d.
100000 in the shortage last year be-
tween this date and June 30. II 10 fair
70 presume that there will be falling
Off In tho next five months from the
81, 000, 900 shortage OF the present
time. In his recent annual report Sec.
rotary Shaw estimated that the deficit
for the complete fiscal year would be
about 100000. There Is an excel.
lent chance that the deficit will be
swept away altogether by June 30.
The Improvement In the financial
situation is due TO the large increase
in revenues. The outgo has made a
gain, az compared with the fiscal year
1905, but the increase In income ID sew.
eral times as great In customs the
growth has been particularly large. All
the records are being broken In our
imports Of merchandise these days.
The custom house Is making unusually
heavy contributions 10 the payment Of
the governments OUTLAWS. Az there IL
no reason to look for any diminutlon
in the imports at an early day, the
record at the end Of the year IL likely
10 be particularly encouraging. The
deficits which began In 1904, which
amounted TO S41,00O,0OO in that year
and to S23,000,000 in 1905, will drop
close to the vanishing point in 1906
and perhaps 20 below H. In the light
Of these facts, why revise the tariff?
