School to Open Monday

Next Monday, September IA, the
schools of Yerington open. There will
be one more room than last year, neces-
stating the renting of an additional
room. The primary department will
hold its sessions in room at the M E.
church under the charge of Mrs. Bessie
Davis. The other rooms will hold their
sessions in the school building with f.
B. Howard as principal, and Miss Edith
Brake in charge of the intermediate
grades.
The school opens with an excellent
corps of teachers and the outlook for a
pleasant and prosperous term is of the
best. Our people are proud of their
school and are always ready to do all in
their power to build it up, and it is the
parent as much as the teacher or pupil
that makes the school.
Our school board, Messrs. Pilkington,
Samuel and Hironymous. have had ev-
erything arranged in a convenient and
businesslike manner for the work of the
school. When we consider that the men,
bers of the board do their work without
compensation, the least we can give them
is our thanks for their duties so we'll per-
formed

Not a Bonanza.

Last week, reports were rife of won
derful find at some indefinite point in
the neighborhood of Bodie, California,
and number of our people started for
the reported find, as meager as the re-
ports of its location were. There were
some who went in autos, some in buggies,
and some even started a-foot. when
they got to Bodie, the wonderful find was
still beyond. A goodly portion of the
seekers gave it up by then, but the
more determined went on.
1t was finally traced to the neighbor-
hood of Silver Lake in Mono county,
California, but the rich stuff did not ma
terialize. The man who is reported to
have made the discovery did not appear
either, although his partner, who did
not know where the rich stuff was to be
found was there. 1t was soon deter
mined that there was nothing doing
and most of the seekers who had not al
ready turned back were soon on their
way home. A few are still looking over
the country, but with no hope of locating
the reputed rich find.
Among the Yerington men who made
the trip, which would have. made them
big money had the report been true, were
w. d. Davidson, G. w. Knierim, F. O.
Stickney, Ed. Dyer and E. Litchenstein.
They all returned, Tuesday, satisfied
that there was no good foundation for
the report.

A Decided Change.
YERINcToN, New, Sept. IS, 1908.

YERINGToN, New, Sept. Is, 1908.
Beginning November 1st, 1908, our
business will be conducted as follows:
Mine, household and restaurant ac-
counts, 80 days; all others must pay
cash. Patrons allowing their accounts
to run over 80 days will be charged in
terest at the rate of s per cent from the
time the account becomes due until set
tlement is effected.
Customers who pay cash, or make set
month, need not be alarmed as your pat
ronage is duly appreciated and you will
be benefited, rather than injured, by this
change. While we buy goods on a cash
or 80 days basis, we shall be able to Sc
cure those goods at lower figure, take
advantage of every discount, and like
wise sell on closer margin than here
tofore.
Owing to the conditions now existing
no new accounts will be opened. Patrons
whose accounts are now long overdue are
requested to effect settlement in some
manner before October 1st, else they
will not be allowed further credit, and
all doubtful accounts will be placed in
hands of our attorney to collect.
We take this step as a matter of justice
to ourselves, as we'll as those who have
stayed by us and observed the above

accounts long past due, sending state
ment after statement of please remit"
etc., and cannot safely, nor proftably,
continue business under such system.
Yours for future cash business,

The board of county commissioners
granted the petition to submit to the tax
PAYERS at the next general election the
proposition to establish high school
and the matter is to be voted on Novem-
Der 8. The importance OF this question
cannot be over estimated, as everyone is
vitality interested in education. The fa-
cilities in the county to keep our girls
and boys at home during their high
school years is more than anything else
to the home with young folks of high
school age, when they are trying to give
them high school education.
Again, from a strictly commercial
view, it is business proposition, as peo-
pie will not locate permanently at point
where there are no proper high school
facilities If they have children OF high
school age or that shall soon arrive at
that age. 1t is good thing all the way
round and the taxpayers who signed the
petition, the men who labored to get 1t
up and through, and the county commits
sioners for their prompt action are all to
be highly commended.

CHICAGO AMERICANS
To PLAY On THE COAST

SAN FRANCISCO, December 90
Jack Gleason. representing Recreation
Park Baseball Association, closed a
deal last night by which the Chicago
White Stockings will play six games
with the San Francisco team in this
city. While it has been known all
along that Charles Comiskey, owner of
the team, was dickering to make the
Western trip, there was no definite ar
rangement until a dispatch was re-
ceived last night from Tip O'Neil, who
has been conducting negotiations from
the other end of the line.
According to the contract that has
been signed, the White Stockings viii
play Friday, Saturday and Sunday,
March 6. and s, and also Friday,
Saturday and Sunday, March 10. Ii
and is. There is a chance also that
two Sunday morning games will be
played in Oakland.
Comiskey will bring a party of about
fifty with him, including newspaper
men, and in all win have some thirty
two players. These players will be di-
vided into two teams, and while one
team is playing in the north against
the Seals, the other squad will be go
ing against the Angels. The following
week the teams can be changed so the
fans of both cities will see all the
men.
If it is possible there will be exhibit
ton games arranged at Bakersfield,
Visalia, Santa Barbara and Salinas.
McCredie is very anxious to have a
game arranged with the Beavers for
Salinas, as the fans of that city were
much disappointed last year when they
missed seeing the New York Giants.
Comiskey's motto is Work in the
shape of playing games and for that
reason he will not settle down in any
one spot for training, but get the men
into contests as much as possible. The
White Sox, who in 1906 beat the Cubs
for the worlds championship and put
up a good fight this last season, need
no introduction and the fans are lucky
to have a chance to see them go.

FAST BASEBALL
TEAM On MAUI
Morning Stars of Wailuku Hold
the Championship of
the Island.

While Honolulu and Hilo both claim
can be found in the islands, it should
not be forgotten that the Islard of
Maui also has q claim to put in for
the championship. On Maui there is
what is known as the Winter League,
in which the Kahuluis, Waikapus and
the Healanis take part. as well as the
Morning stars. The latter team, of
whom a photograph is reproduced on
this page. won the championship OF
the past season.
The Morning Stars started out bad
". but made a fine finish. In the
commencement of the season they
lost the two first games that they
played, but then followed this up by
winning the next seven. which gave
them the honors of the season. Be-
sides this, they had the honor of Win
ming the best game of ball seen on
Maui for a long time. This was
against the Waikapus, whom they de-
feated by a score of 1 to 0 after a
twelve-inning contest. Not a single
member of the losing team was able
to get as far as second base in the
entire game.
1t is just possible that at the end
of the coming baseball season a series
of games between the pick of the
teams from this island, from Hawaii
and from Maui. may contest for the
championship of the Territory. In
this case the Morning Stars will prob
ably be seen in action here.

TOURNEY
NEXT SUNDAY

The golf tournament which will take
place on Sunday at the links of the
Oahu Country Club should be very
largely attended and it is hoped that
himself of the chance to play. The
course which has been selected will be
a new one and the map, giving it's
full details, will be published in the
Advertiser on Sunday morning. All
those who expect to play are request
ed to cut this out and take it with
them for their guidance while in the
tourney.
The committee which has charge is
especially anxious that one feature
s. lould be called attention to. This is
the fact that the tournament, after an
entrance fee has been paid, is open to
all golf players in the islands. There
are many golfers among the tourists
at the local hotels and they win be
more than welcome at the Country
Club on Sunday, if they care to come
and take part in the play.
The course of eighteen holes is a
long one, and has been made up SO
that it will give the local men the
hardest time that they have ever
found on any of the local links. The
distance for the full eighteen holes is
a little over 5000 yards, not 1900 as
was stated by mistake last Sunday.
There will be three drawings. The
first will take place at $50 a. m, the
second at 10 o'clock and the third
a half hour later. The entrance fee
will be fifty cents. Lunch will be
served at the clubhouse, and, with
good weather. all should enjoy day
of the finest possible exercise.

NEW YEARS WEDDINGS.

Rev. H. NJ. Kaniho seems to hold
the record for marriages performed on
New Years day, at least so far as
the returns now show He has report
ed to the Registrar of vital statistics
four complies united by him on January
4-and no one else has reported any
thing like that number yet. His record
far exceeds even that of Rev G.. Mo
tokawa who performs most of the mar
rage ceremonies at the Immigrant
Station and who undoubtedly holds the
record for Honolulu for the past year.

services to the club, the musical part
of the program will be an exceptional
ly fine one.
The invitation to former Secretary
of Hawaii A. L. c. Atkinson to de-
liver an address to the members has
been accepted. Atkinson has always
taken an interest in the promotion of
clean sport in this community, and
his address should be of great benefit
to the club.
