Graham went to San Francisco last
Friday on little trip, and while walk
ing toward the United States mint was
accosted by Harris. The alleged bunko
man is said to have enticed Graham to
a poolroom in Turk street.
Graham was invited to participate in
a game, which he did. He met with ap-
parent success and in due time won
$1,000. The money was won on credit,
however. The loser pretended to be
ready to pay over the coin when he
remarked:
How do I know whether you have
the money. If you'd have lost how
am I to know you would have paid
me?"
Graham thereupon produced his
handbook. This was satisfactory to
tlS DuIlhO man, VINO put up with the
game keeper $500 as good faith. He
told Graham to go back to Stockton
and return with his money as good
faith on his part.
Graham returned to this city, his
newly acquired friend with him. The
two were at the bank today preparing
to secure a certificate of deposit when
the officers interfered.
Even after Harris was arrested and

lfeved he had won $1,000.

BYRON. Nov. 15.-The growing eof
vetch in California will become a profit

tried on the c. P. Holt ranch at Holt.
Roberts island, should turn out sue

Frank A. Guernsey and A c. Nc
Cam of Stockton have just finished

1t is being grown for seed. Vetch
seed costs about s cents a pound and
is difficult to obtain even at that figure.
1t is grown mainly in Oregon.
Growing vetch for seed has never
before been attempted in California, but
Guernsey and McCann are confident
that the wonderfully fertile soil of the
island region will yield abundant
crops.
If successful hundreds of acres will
be planted to vetch next season, both
for fodder and seed purposes.
Vetch is one of the greatest fertilizers
known. 1t is a plant such as cow

SPECIAL FERTILIZATION
OF WHEAT LAND TRIED
Superphosphate Put Into Soil
With the Grain
Especial Dispatch 10 The CALI

lOPCNtdt A(tePdt(H ~ AHS (AfJ
BYRON, Nov. 15.-An experiment
which il is thought will be fraught
with wonderful results is being put
in operation by Frank A. Guernsey
and A. C. McCann of Stockton on a 80
acre tract near Tracy.
The land is TO be planted to wheat,
and with the planting will be used a
certain amount of superphosphate fer
tiliZer.
This fertilizer is a product of phos-
phate rock, which is manufactured into
a high grade water soluble phosphoric
acid fertilizer called superphosphate.
A recent bulletin issued by the agri-
culture department at Washington
highly recommended the use OF phos-
phate rock.
A special superior drill is to be used,
so that the fertilizer and the wheat
may be drilled in together.
The advantage of drilling over broad
cast sowing is that the fertilizer is
distributed into the ground in any de-
sired quantity and the possibility of
waste by being blown away is
avoided.

LAW AND FINANCE
TO MEET ON LINKS
I. 6. Coogan Will Play Golf
With F. L. Lipman for !.
Glory and Side Bet
Attorney and Bank Cashier
Have Sporting Blood
and $3.50 Up

L. c. Coogan, veteran of the law
courts, and F. L. Lipman. cashier of
the Wells Fargo Nevada bank, have
their sporting blood up. Notices of a
SO hole golf match for next Sunday on
the Claremont country club grounds
have been posted over the financial dis
trict and in the haunts of bench and
bar. A side bet of $3.50 has been put
UP by the principals and James B.
Smith has added to the excitement by
donating gold loving cup for the win
ner. The Pacific Union club and the
clearing house have promised Lipma n
large bunch of rooters, while the bar
association will be on hand in a body
to encourage its champion So that be-
yond the allurement of trophy and side
bets there is the far more important
question of skill to be determined and
honor upheld.
Until this summer Coogan did not
know more about a cleek or brassie
than did his caddie about habeas cor
pus or nunc pro tune. But he is now
one of the most earnest golfers in the
club Coogan was alone in the sport
until his skill began to stir the envy of
Lipman, who arranged for lessons on
now TO loft and put and made such
progress that a match with Coogan was
demanded by the Claremonters. Coogan
and Lipman were SO completely in a
class by themselves that no other ar
rangement appeared feasible
when 1T came to details, Coogan
sought to clinch his prestige by de-
manding handicap of eight strokes.
But the rest of the club came to the aid
of Lipman and presented him with the
eight strokes. Scorning to take such
advantage, Lipman said he would
waive the handicap.
Now all is ready, even to the wire
net screens. designed to protect the
spectators from flying turf and eccen-
trio balls. In club street and court
cash is being slipped into the hands of
disinterested third parties pending the
result
The start will be by a pistol shot
promptly at 10 o'clock Sunday morning
on the Claremont grounds.

Y.M.C.A. BROADENs
SCOPE OF ITS WORK

The directors of the Young Men s
Christian Association have voted to add
another man to the executive force, to
be known as the educational and mem
bershlp secretary. The educational
work has grown to such an extent that
this coming year it will require most
of one man S time to maintain it at the
proper state of efficiency. The direc-
tors have also enlarged their view of
the function of the institution and see
that it is possible to develop a large
and successful night school for working
young men in Honolulu. There are 120
students enrolled in classes this year,
and with one man giving a good part
of his time to the promotion of educa-
tional work, the enrolment should come
very near 200, which win be the aim of
next year policy Part of the duties
of the new man will be arranging for
popular free lectures to young men, on
subjects of general educational value.
The religious work of the Associa
ton has become so extensive and gives
promise of such future growth that
it now requires good deal of the time
of the general secretary. The Asso-
citation is doing the biggest work in it's
history, and with another man added
to the force this summer an organiza-
ton should be developed that the town
may well be proud of. The coming
of SO many young men to Honolulu,
most of them total strangers and living
in boarding houses, makes a strong and
efficient Y. NJ C. A. a civic necessity.
The directors are showing a shirt i'm
dicative of a desire to make the Asso-
citation the great institution it is in
many of the cities on the mainland.
