WHAT AMATEUR ATHLETES
ARE DOING FOR SPORTS
By MANHATTAN.

NEW YORK, Feb. 9.-There Is a great
force quietly at work in our midst which
| IL may be doubted IS understood fully
even by ordinarily weil-infOrmed men,
which is destined to have a most I'm
portant influence on American amateur
sport, climbing our claims 10 world
supremacy in this line OF effort for a
long time TO come. It is the Public
School Athletic League
This organization Is IN fits infancy as
yet, but already II has developed some
fine men and has spread the athletic
spirit among thousands Of boys. from
among whom doubtless will come as the
years pass champions and record
breakers in all lines Of athletics.
Some Interesting Figures.
A report recently made by DR.. Luther
Halsey Gulick. director OF physical
training in the New York city public
schools. and president Of the National
Public School Athletic League. gives
some interesting figures concerning the
work Of the league in this city.
The number of schoOlboys taking part
in athletics during the past season has
been 1,S73. In etghty-three schools there
are branch leagues organized, with a
membership of l2.OlL
The boys Of 165 schools have grounds
or available parks for practice, and
ninety-twO schools have basketball
courts
DR.. Gulick says: Last year al
teachers did volunteer service in helping
the boys after school with their ath-
letics. If these men were paid for their
time at the same rate for which they
are compensated for their other work,
IT would have made a total contribution
Of something like $4,000.
A Splendid Endorsement.
This service on the part of class
teachers and principals is, as 1 am sure
you will agree. a most splendid indorse-
ment Of the Public Schools Athletic
League, for these men know the needs
and the difficulties as no other group
OF people does"
This simply shows what is done in
New York city The league has a foot
hold In a number of other cities in Yari-
GUS parts OF the country. Every city
and town in the country ought TO have
an organized branch of the league.
1t is a poor week when an amateur
record Is not lowered these days.
sc N4Ah WIZ mas Detn Playing havoc
with the figures now is c. NJ Daniel. the
wonderful New York Athletic Club
swimmer. He lowered six worlds rec
ords in the 5OO-yard handicap swim
Daniel started from scratch and covered
the first $50 yards in minutes l rs
seconds, eight seconds better than the
record. The 3oO-yard mark was passed
in 10 10 rs, the $50 yards in 4:29 3-5. the
400 yards in 5:15. $50 yards, 5:47 2-5. and
he finally crossed the finish in 6,55 As.

Wailuku, Maui, Aug. 2.--The Lie

Kimura last Monday by refusing to
grant his petition for a wholesale lie
ense Two years ago, Kimura con-
Quoted wholesale liquor business at
the old Lovejoy corner, Kepoikai
block, and last year he had a retail
liquor saloon at the same corner.
This year Kimura wanted wholesale
license but the Commissioners turned
him down, although Kimuras petit
tion was signed by all the property
permitted by the law Kimura was
told that the reason his petition was
turned down was that the Kindergar-
ten building stood on the opposite side
of the road, and it is generally be-
lieved by some that the proximity Of
a saloon to a school house demoralizes
the children. Kimura thinks other
wise, for he believes that the conduct
Of the children at the kindergarten on
some nights is worse than the average
behavior of his customers. Tanaka
the cashier, states that he will petit
ton the Board of Supervisors, pro-
testing against the behavior of the
children on the opposite side of the

from those in his saloon, he will not
tolerate any noise at all from the OPP

Wailuku, Maui, Aug. 2.-The reg
ular monthly meeting of the Waikiki
Improvement Association was held at
the Waikiki court house last even
ing, president r. w. Wadsworth pre-
siding. A large number of the active
members turned out but nothing of
great Importance TRANSFERRED.
The burning question of the hour,
at that meeting was, where to empty
the contents from the odorless exca-
vator cart recently obtained after
much corresponding and begging,
from the Honolulu officials. Exper-
fenced sugar men put very little value
on such contents SO will not accept
them even if given as a gift. J. n
S. Williams strongly opposed making
the waters of Kahului bay a dumping
ground for Wailuku cesspools, AMI
suggested converting the sand hills
as the proper place for receiving
such material. There are several OBJ
jections to the sand hills, first and
foremost being the matter of access
The Wailukans. Of course, favor a
sewer system emptying it's contents
into Kahului Bay at point near
Paukukalo, and the citizens of Kahu-
lui will then have no just ground for
their fight against having the clear
waters of their bay polluted by the
Objectionable waste material from
Wailuku Engineers, sanitarians and
humanitarians also favor this pro-
ject Who will finally succeed in
the fight will be the most burning
question of the hour for the next two
Ci three weeks.

"A CONTEST OVER
SETTLEMENT OF
JOHN ENA ESTATE

A controversy has arisen in regard to
the John Ena estate. There was filed
yesterday in the Supreme Court sub
mission of the controversy for the ar
bitration of that tribunal. The sub
mission is signed by Father yaientin
and the Hawaiian Trust Company. ex-
Eecutors and trustees of the estate under
the will of the late John Ena, and Mrs.
Maria K. Ena, the widow.
The submission recites that John Ena
died December u, 1906, leaving a will
which was admitted to probate by
Judge Lindsay January 81. 1907. By
the will the income of the estate is
left share and share alike to the widow
and seven children, with certain special
bequests and legacies, including an in
come of 5000 year for the widow and
the right to occupy the Pacific Heights
house as her residence. But on May
"a, 1907, she filed in writing her renun-
citation of the provisions of the will and
claimed her dover rights in the estate.
The time within which claims against
the estate can be filed has now expired
and the executors are DESTROYS of pay

and other personal property other than
leaseholds valued at $4,000 and lease
holds which have been appraised at
$1,000. The claims against the estate

THE MARRIAGE
LAWS Of KOREA

In the trial of T. S. Choy and No
Sang Bong for violation of the Ed
munds Act, in the United States Dis
trict Court yesterday the marriage
for evidence and discussion T. S.
Choy was formerly Korean interpre-
ter for the United States Court. He
is accused of having had unlawful re-
lations with No Sang Bong, married
woman, whose husband is a labor4r
on the Honolulu plantation. The
United States claims that she is
married woman. The defense claims
that she is not a married woman; that
she was not married by any form
which is recognized in Korea as a.
marriage, but that she was simply the
companion of her supposed husband
1t came out in the testimony that
marriage is entered into in Korea ac-
cording to two different formulas, so
to speak. If the parents bring about
the marriage, selecting the wife for
Tic huoOhhQ anu Tie nuSDduQ lOE the
wife, and then the wife proves un-
faithful, the husband may kill her.
But if the husband and wife select
each other, and the wife then goes
wrong, the husband may not kill her,
but the punishment must be left to
the law.
In the trial of this case yesterday,
one of the witnesses, Korean boy
twelve years of age, Ye Box Sui, was
examined as to his knowledge of the
obligation of an oath. He was asked
what would happen to him if he should
not tell the truth on the witness
stand.
Il go to hell" was his reply.
Judge Dole, who doesn't believe in
hell, smiled and ruled that he had
shown sufficient appreciation of the
obligation of an oath to entitle him to
testify.
