Chinese at Aala Park Decide
Quickly to Abolish the
Society.

The recent election of the Box On
Society is causing no little trouble.
The elections were held without the
old set of officers being present and
these, together with a number of ad-
herents, claim that this is not legal
and as the new officers refuse to re-
sign, the old ones decided to bring the
matter into the courts. The Consul
was appealed to and he advised that
the matter be arbitrated and suggested
that the old set employ Attorney Pc
ters, and the new set, Attorney Light
foot Upon consultation, the lawyers
decided that the only way to settle the
dispute was to appeal to the people
and let them decide whether or no
they wanted the society.
Yesterdays meeting at Aala Park
was for that purpose. The Chinese
Consul opened the meeting with
speech in which he said

A WOMAN 8 VIEW
Of HAWAIIAN LIFE
The College Club of Honolulu,
Churches. Schools and
Social Activity.

Mrs J. E. Cowles, who has just re-
turned from Hawaii, tells some inter
esting things concerning women's club
life in the islands. DR.. and Mrs.
Cowles, who accompanied the Chamber
of Commerce excursion to Hawaii,
were the guests during their ten days
stay, of Bishop H. b. Restarick and
family of Honolulu. DIR. Restarick,
who is now bishop of the Episcopal
diocese of Hawaii and the islands OF
the Pacific, was for twenty-five years
rector of st. Paul's church at San
Diego, hence he has hundreds OF
friends in Southern California. For
the past five years he has been resi-
dent of Hawaii.
"At Hilo 1 met Mrs. Siemsen, who
was a delegate from the Hawaiian
Womens Club to the biennial in Los
Angeles in 1902" said Mrs. Cowles. She
has since married and is now living in
HiIo, where she has established
branch club. The club women over
there devote their energies chiefly to
humanitarian work and are enabled In
this way to reach class of people

that others cannot. They have ac-
complished some wonderful things In
this line.
THE president of the Hawaiian club
is a graduate of the Kamehameha
School, which is so heavily endowed
by Mrs. Bishop, a descendant OF the
Kamehameha family. This club has
taken up district nursing among the
poor as its special work. one OF Its
prominent members is in charge OF the
Maternity Home I'm Honolulu.

was held for the benefit Of this home
and it happened that child was born
in the home that very day. To one or
our Los Angeles ladies was given the
honor of naming it. She called the
little girl Alice Los Angeles and the
mother was delighted with the name.

MAUI BILL
GOES DOWN
Discussing Another Veto
Local Option
Dead.
SENATE-FIFTY-THIRD DAY.

It seems evident that while the Gov
ernor may consent to an increase IN
the pav of the clerical force of the
Government he opposes any measure
that tends toward bringing the labor
ing classes to a position in the financial
world that viii permit their having
pie more than once week. And that
thought caused him to refuse to sign
House Bill No. 184, fixing the pay OF
laborers in Government employ at SIPS
a day. The consideration of the veto
is set for this morning and there IS
probability of the veto being sustained
The road to the burial ground of the
Local Option bill was by devious ways
and the sign boards are visible to but
few. It is whispered that there were
several bits of trading done TO ac-
complish the defeat of that excellent
measure but if the truth was known
that much of the desire to kill 1T was
nursed in the breasts of the men who
play politics as a business. In several
instances it was stated that it would
be impossible to secure election next
time if there was no booze in sight.
Again it was pointed out that In sec
tions where booze is not now sold 1t
would be as plentiful as tules in Cal1-
fornia, if it was left entirely to the
will of the people.
The feature of the killing OF the
bill in the Senate yesterday was the
clash between Smith, Makekau and
Coelho. The first named was anxious
that the bill pass and he was as strong
ly opposed by the other Senators named
Senator Smith intimated cowardlce IN
the act of Makekau springing his ses-
sion-worn move to reconsider and thus
effectually kill the measure. There were
flashes of fire for moment but the
senior Senator expressed no desire to
hurt the dignity of any member SO

were allowed from the Planters Asso-
citation for some time past the sum offs

plantations. but they. acting as spokes-
men, told the rest Of the hotels that they
we're allowed only $50 and pockcted
the difference. The truth was discov-
cred a few weeks ago by the rest OF
the hotelkeepers who are now accusing
them OF fraud and threatening 20 bring
suit against them.
IL is said the number OF men actually
sent to plantations by each OF the older
establishments fen short OF any OF tho
rest. and the trusted four have been
Just as treacherous as the rest during
the labor crisis.
For instance. Il has been charged
that one OF the financicrs of the hotel
association and one OF the trusted
four" has been practising quite a two
faced method during the labor
troubles. He had a heavy pecuniary
interest. Il is said. in the scheme by
which the steamer Hanalei was sent
TO the Coast with many laborers. and
has been also a partner IN the stanley
Dala scheme, and has later exacted a
large commission from the agents OF
the olympia and helped the now wei
known exodus OF the laborers ON that
steamer.
As a majority OF the japanese papers
OF the city are controlled by different
sections OF hotelkeepers. the tempest
now started may rage for some time
between the old and new establish
ments TO the wreck OF all.

Mr.. Schuyler finds that every recon-

THE failure of the Nuuanu dam by
oyertopping, due to floods exceeding
the capacity of the spillway cannot, IN
NV Judgment, be regarded as posi-

Board of Health, which has been seeth-
ing ever since the lesser branch OF
the Government told the greater that
it's resolution regarding J. Lor Wal
lach was not worth consideration, broke
forth in the House yesterday, Kalelo-

with it the hope that the next Legs
lature would show the saucy and in

came Just as the House was prepared
to take an afternoon off and conse-
quently was not generally spoken on
as would have been the case IT noon
had not been so near or if the dis
cussion could have been carried over
into the afternoon. The resolution
was:
'sWhereas. A communication has been
received from the Board of Health OF
the Territory of Hawaii refusing per-
emptorily and absolutely to comply

ouesting said Board of Health to per-

supervision and subject to the proper
regulation of said Board of Health,
"And Whereas, Said request was made
by this Legislature for the purpose OF

Forbid Boys to Smoke.

Ii bill passed by the lower house
of the Wisconsin legislature Monday
becomes a law, and there is every in
dication that it will, it will effectively
stop cigarette smoking by choolboys
and other youths in Wisconsin The
bill makes it an offense punishable
by a fine or imprisonment in the
county Jail for person under 16
years of age to smoke tobacco in any
form in public or for anyone to allow
such persons to smoke on premises
occupied by him.
Two years ago the legislature passed
a law prohibiting the sale of cigar
cites or cigarette papers in Wiscon-
sin, but this did not put stop to
the habit among the boys addicted 10
it. They bought the tobacco in their
home towns and sent out of the state
for the papers.
