boats light-heartedly enough, and took
his place cheerfully between two ma
rines with loaded rifles. But the
mournful hush of All about him, the
eyes that turned and would not meet
his own, the tenderness and sorrow
which was expressed in every move

whilom comrades, all stirred and
shook him with CONSERVATION. No

tickled the man next him, and nudged

SAVINGS
DEPOSITS
GOVERNOR FREAR HAD CONFER
ENCE TO ARRANGE TO SETTLE
THE OLD CLAIMS.

While in Washington lately, Cover
nor Frear took up the matter of clos
ing up the outstanding claims of de-
positors of the Hawaiian Savings
Bank, payment of which was assum-
ed by the Federal Government after
the annexation. AS a result Of a con-
ference with one of the assistant sec
retaries of the Treasury Department,
and the Comptroller of Currency, II
was decided to have a bill introduced
in Congress providing (D for the pay
ment of claims without the necessity
of having them prObated; (2) fixing a
period of limitation for the proving OF
claims; and CD proyidIng that any
balance Soil in the treasury at the ex-
piration of the period of limitation
shall be turned over to the Territorial
Government to be applied against the
public debt A bill cmbodying these
points has already been introduced IN
the House by Delegate KalanianaOle,
and will no doubt pass.
The amount of deposits of the old
Savings Bank not paid is only a trihe
over $4,000, and is made up of some 245
accounts, ranging from cents TO
about $175 or an average Of about $9,
Most of them are claims of heirs or
the original depositors, and some OF
them have been refused payment be-
cause of insufficient evidence of the
authority of the claimants to them.
The amounts have generally been too
small to pay to prove in a probate

WEST LAKE CLUB.
Steps Are Taken to Complete the
J Organization.

a meeting of those interested in the
West Lake club and the prospective
members of the club was held last
night in the rooms of the Commercial
club. The organization. however. was
deferred as there was but small at
tendance at the meeting, many of
those interesed attending the meeting
of the Topeka Southwestern.
The work of furthering the organi-
cation was turned over to a committee
composed of seven men who will talk
the matter over and devise plans for
organization. These men will call a
meeting soon and then the work of
organizing will be carried out Those
who are on the committee are Frank
S. Crane, c. E. Eldridge. Scott Hop
kins, E. L. ONeil, H. w. McAfee, S.
j. Hodgins and H. w. Seery.
The plans of those who are pushing
the matter provide for a club which
will have as their quarters West Lake
and the ground adjacent. This land
lies directly west of Gage park and
between the Sixth and Tenth avenue
roads. West Lake is artificial and is
the largest artificial lake in this sec
ton of the state. Ten people ac-
quired the ownership Of this land for
the purpose OF organizing a club.
They are N. H. Loomis, Mrs. S. A.
