NO CARDS
IN SALOON

The Board of Liquor Commissioners
held meeting yesterday afternoon at
which there was but little business
transacted. The only matter of general
importance that came up was a new
rule which was passed in regard to
card playing in saloons, restaurants
and hotel bars, which has been allow
ed in some places in the city $n the
future, or at any rate after the notifi-
cations have been sent out, this will
be prohibited This will hit at the
lower class of saloons, where card
games have taken place to some ex-
tent. 1t will also prevent the even
ing game of solitaire which has been
enjoyed every night by Manager John
Coffee at the Seaside Hotel.
The Board agreed to allow the trans
fer of license for the brewing of sake
from T. Sumida and 4. Iwanaka to
the Honolulu Sake Brewing Associa-
ton. The application of Mrs. Klemme
for the privilege of selling liquor in
the Aloha Alma restaurant on Sundays,
was ordered advertised and will come
up on Wednesday, October Z.

Frank o. Boyer received a nice send
off from the Rapid Transit Co.'s en-
ploy on the eve of his leaving for
position with the Dearborn Chemical
Co.'S establishment Hugh G. Davis
of the business department, on behalf
of Boyer's friends, in a pleasant speech
presented him with a gold watch fob
beautifully engraved with Elks EN-
blems. Cigars were handed round to
the gathering, which comprised most
of the men off duty.
w. B. Bolster and Herman Hamlin
entertained the party with a four
round boxing contest. Superintendent
Pratt acted as time-keeper and Davis
as gong-tapper. The first round was
Hamlin's. Next two the punchers
broke about even. AS both men were
standing, with trolleys in place, at
the end of the bout the contest was
declared a draw.

Land Commissioner Pratt, who re-
turned from Washington this morning
after a trip made for the purpose of
looking into the United States land
laws, brought back very strong state
ment in regard to the returning of De-
legate Kuhio to Washington. He says:
From information that l gathered,
and it came to me while in Washington
and was not sought, / am firmly of the
opinion that the very best thing that
this Territory can do is to send Kuhio
back to Congress as delegate from this
Territory. He is very highly thought
of in Washington and can always get

The Republican Territorial conven-

to Congress and adopt platform, will
meet next Monday morning at ten
o'clock, at the Orpheum theatre. One
part of it's programme,-th selection
of candidate for delegate,-is mat
ter Of form apparently, for Delegate
Kuhio is certain of denomination.
A scheme of opposition to Kuhio,
has however suddenly developed, with
W. G. Achi as a sponsor. Achi deeply
resents Kuhio's having taken part in
the mayoralty campaign to the extent
of supporting Lane, and he proposes to
give Kuhio lesson by making a fight
against him in his own convention
the Territorial convention which meets
on Monday. "There is new candidate
out for delegate to Congress-" he said
this morning, and when asked who was
the candidate he named A. L. c. At
kinson.

Judge A. S. Humphreys, who represent

A Federal officer may also hold
position under the Territory of Ha
waii without violation of any law, ac-
.cording to a decision received this
morning from the Secretary of the In
terror by Governor Frear. The letter
went still farther in the mater of DR..
Cofer, in which 1t was stated that it
was in many cases good for Federal
officer to work with the Territory but
particularly SO in the case of the local
head of the Marine Hospital Service.
The letter received from the Secre-
tory of the Interior through the acting
secretary Jesse E. Wilson. states that
every legal aspect of the matter has
been gone into very carefully and that
the decision has only been reached aft
,er mature deliberation.
When asked whether this meant that
DR.. Cofer would be reappointed as pre-
sident of the Board of Health Cover
nor Frear said:
