Geo. ". SMITH
SPEAKS HIS MIND
Says No Quorum at Merchants
Association Is Reflection
on Directors.

81 consider the lack of interest the
members have shown in our meetings
a reflection on the directorate of the
association said President George W.
Smith, of the Merchants Association,
yesterday afternoon, after he had
counted noses at the meeting called
and found that only ten out of a neces-
sary fifteen for quorum had appear
ed. The gentleman, who had asked
that the meeting be called, was not
among the ten, neither was the secre-
tary in evidence, although he had been
notified and although the faithful ten
had been sitting around waiting for
quorum for thirty-five long minutes
after the time for calling the meeting
to order had arrived.
81 do not consider it a reflection
on the directorate at all, said GEN.
eral Soper, "but | do consider it
reflection on the members who fail to
show an interest. I think that it
would be well to put notice in the
papers calling a meeting and stating
that the object of the meeting viii
be the question of the desirability of
winding up the association
81 should certainly deplore having
to do anything like that, answered
the President 'Since the organiza-
tion of the association in 1901 it has
been the means of doing much of bene-
fit to the mercantile interests of the
Territory, especially to the retail mer-
chant trade. 1t has been the means of
securing needed legislation and of many
other things. Of course the elections
will soon come on now and there will
be new Board of Directors, when
the new blood will possibly be able to
stir up more enthusiasm than is shown
now
The meeting of the Merchants As
cociation had been called by special re-
quest for yesterday afternoon, but fz-
zled out for lack of quorum. Another
meeting will be called for Thursday
afternoon of next week.

GENEROSITY OF DONORS
ENABLES OAHU COLLEGE
TO COMPLETE LIBRARY

with their plans, and no change in
the specifications was needed.
The building will contain a large
reading room, offices for the librarian
and his assistants on the main floor,
as well as the stack, that is, the
annex in which the books themselves
will be kept. There will also be a
basement, though this will be mostly
above the ground, as the land on
which the new building will be placed,
between Bingham and Science halls,
will be terraced, so the building will
In the basement will be rooms for
unpacking books as they come in, a
vault for the preservation of the ar
chives of the college, indexing rooms
and lavatories. The building will be
built of Hawaiian stone and should
present good appearance.
The library, as planned will have
rooms for many more books than there
are in the present collection. but the
plans are such that additions can be
made to the building, should the books
increase beyond its capacity.
Liberal contributions to the fund for
books and for furnishing the new
buildings have been made already, and
it is hoped that by the time the struc-
ture is completed the present collec-
ton of books will have been largely
added to.

Through the generosity of Mr.. and
Mrs c. NJ Cooke, who increased
their gift for building for the Oahu
College library from $4,000 to $4,000,
that institution will soon have a fine
structure. While not comparing with
the libraries of the mainland colleges
in size, it will be complete in every
way.
At meeting of the trustees of Oahu
College held yesterday afternoon, at
the office of P. c. Jones, the bids for
the building, which had been called
for from the different contractors of
the city, were taken up, and in all
probability, in case the requirements
in relation to bonds are fulfilled, the
contract will go to John OuderkirS.
the lowest bidder. His bid, for the
completion of the building, was $S4,-
79S. The other bids ranged as high as
$40 600.
The original gift for the building.
from Mr.. and Mrs. Cooke, was one of
S20. .00O, but after the specifications had
been prepared and the bids called for,
it was found that it would cost con-
siderably in advance of this sum. The
gift was then increased to $35.000
which enabled the trustees to go ahead

v. R. SIMS ARRESTED
AGAIN LAST NIGHT

w. r. Sims distinguished himself
again last night, raising another rum
pus that landed him in the tanks on
a charge of drunkenness for the second
time this week. The particular phase
of hilarity acquired last night induced
him to run amuck in a Chinese fruit
store at the corner of Hotel street and
Nuuanu avenue, where he proceeded
to throw the proprietor out into the
street and then mash in the papayas
in the window. After mussing around
in the various fruits, upsetting sew
ing machine and otherwise amusing
himself. he awaited the arrival of the
police, who had been summoned by
the Chinese fruit seller. The excite
ment of this Chtnaman at the station,
when he made mis- complaint, induced
the idea that there -as a full-fedged
riot in progress and the patrol wagon
was sent out fun of officers. This fact
amused Sims nightly. who inquired
if it was necessary to send the whole
department out to handle him. It
took three officers, just the same, to
keep him in the hurry-up wagon, and
he fought desperately during the run
down. Sims will face Judge Andrade
this morning.

venile of the Ellefords, who is play

questioned. last night concerning a
young man advertised for in the San
Francisco Examiner as lost. The ad-
vertisement stated that the young man
had recently disappeared. much to the
alarm of his mother, who feared that
he had gone on the stage or met with
some other kind of bad accident.
The handsome young actor certainly
did not look like fellow who could
not take care of himself in any old
place, and the other members of the
Elleford Company gave him a reputa-
ton that certainly established an alibi
for him. According to them, the junior

The lost young man, whose name is

work has already made him well

he has a leaning towards stage work

Gus CORDES GETS
HIS LICENSE BACK
Promises to Be Good in Future
and the Board Let's
Him Off.

The Board of License Commissioners
held meeting yesterday afternoon in
the Throne room of the Capitol One
of the principal matters of business was
the consideration of the charge against
Gus Cordes that he had attempted to
transfer his license for the River
Rhine saloon without the consent of
the Board. At previous meeting
Cordes had admitted that he had trans
ferred the largest interest in the place,
but he asked the Board to permit him
to secure a retransfer of this interest
to himself, and assured the Board that
he had the means to do it, and if al
lowed to do it would, and would then
comply strictly with the law. The
Board on these representations gave
him certain time to carry this out.
At yesterdays s meeting of the Board
Cordes was able to fully satisfy the
Board that this had been done and on
this showing the charges against him
will not be prosecuted farther.
Hamamura Kukumatsu, who has ap-
piled for license for the Togo saloon
near the Nuuanu stream, will be given
a public hearing on January 10.
Application No. 116 that of Y. Shi-
