am looking forward to the Munsey tour
with a great deaf Of interest" said Mr.
McBurney, and I hope TO duplicate IN
this tour the string of wins already

out for the Munsey tour is sufficiently
hard to keep the drivers on the job all
the time. II IS through very inter-
esting section Of the country, and L am
sure all those who participate will long
remember it..
While the time for closing the entries
in the Munsey contest is still fourteen
days off. there have been enrolled
twenty-nine cars, embracing twenty-five
different makes Of machines. When it
is remembered that but seventeen diff

TANSAN PLAY IS
NEXT SUNDAY

Many of the golfers seem not to
realize that the Tansan tournament has
been dated forward one week and that
the next one viii be played at Haleiwa
next Sunday and not on March IA.
The reason for this action was that
St. Clair Bidgood is going to be full
up with the Marathon race on the date
first arranged and made a special re-
quest that it be changed.
The tournament will not start until
the afternoon. This is always the case
at Haleiwa as it gives the second train
arrivals plenty of time to get in and
the early birds open links for practise
before lunch.
Bidgood states that the links are in
excellent condition. Much work has
been done on the greens lately. During
a recent visit to Haleiwa Mr.. Bidgood
took an Advertiser representative over
the links and showed what improve
ments had been made. While not an
expert in golf he saw enough to show

SHEPARD GOOD
AT FIRST BASE

Here we have the score of the Sec
ond game between the Cavalry and In
fantry at Leilehua. Everybody in
town who has had the pleasure of meet
ing Shepard, the genial and whimsical
eavalryman, viii be glad to hear that
he made very good at first base.
Bateman, who has never received suf-
fcient credit for his mitt work, was
star behind the bat for the foot-pads
while Butler of the horsemen opened
the box and produced a fine, new set
of properly labeled curves with the
pure food act on every one of them.
The following is an account kindly
sent in by the official scorer:
Enclosed please find one of the
score cards of the ball game between
the 20th Infantry and the 5th Cavalry,
which 1 hope you viii find space in

a look-in, and but for bit Of stupid
playing on the part of the Cavalry
would have been shut out.
f'The. features of the game were the
batting of Shepard and the fielding of
Walters, who made several sensational
catches when it looked bad for the
horse soldiers, while Bateman played a
star game for the Infantry behind the
bat
f'There was also a game played be-
tween the Infantry and Cavalry on Sat
urday, which resulted in victory for
the Cavalry by the score of six to four,
there was also some sleeping on the
part of the Cavalry in this game of
the same variety as seen in the last.
Where the Cavalry should have had a
shut-out they allowed the Infantry
to roll up four runs. The feature of
this game was the pitching of Butler
for the Cavalry, who allowed only two
hits and struck out twelve men, and
had the Cavalry given him the support
they generally do ne would have had a
walkover.

question of the Mayors appointments,
Supervisor Logan at first declared that
road supervisor was not the head of
a department and therefore the Mayor
had no right to appoint such officer.
Later on, Mr.. Logan conceded that the
Mayors theory of his right to appoint
the official holding that Office was cor
rect, and that the road supervisor was
the head of department under exact
ly the same status as fire chief, engi-
neer, etc. This broke portion of the
threatened continuation of tiresome
deadlock, but the deadlock came again
when the board refused to confirm the
Mayors road supervisor appointee for
Honolulu. or for the outside districts,
save at Waianae and Waimanalo where
the road overseers serve without pay.
The Mayors Position.
When the meeting has finished with
routine business and the way was clear
to get down to the question of the
Mayors appointments, Supervisor Lo-
gan arose and said:
'fThe Supreme Court has decided the
Mayor has the appointment of heads
of departments with the approval of
che board. That is the way I take it after
reading between the lines of the court g
decision. 7 would like to ask your hon
or if you have any appointments to
lay before us to act upon
The Mayor replied that the board had
taken him somewhat by surprise with
this request, adding: 81 made the ap-
pointments I was advised the law re-
quired me to make. The Supreme Court
has decided that as TO some of them /
did have the power to make them. l
have been advised by counsel that these
appointments under the Municipal Act
do not require the approval of the
board. The board may disagree with
me on that The Supreme Court did
not decide that question. But the

prove, though it is known TO every
member of the board that they were
made and they have been in the hands
of your clerk ever since January t
The January 4th List.
Logan moved that the clerk procure
and produce such a list if be had it.
The clerk brought it before the board,
and there was a deep silence while he
opened it up, during which time Messrs.
Logan. Aylett and Quinn had their
heads together Kalauokalani began
reading the list which was headed with
the name of c. l. Rhodes as secretary
TO the Mayor Logan said it was not
necessary for the board TO consider
that appointment. The name Of Mr..
Gere as City Engineer was read, and

Sail Mayor Was Blocking.

The Mayor declined to put Logan s
motion. Logan came back with the re-
ioinder that the Mayor gave judicial
reason which he Logan) would not
admit the Mayor had right to do.
Under the board s rules, until they were
abolished by higher power, he would
therefore put the motion himself. Cox,
however, was not willing to vote with
out a thorough understanding of the
matter. He said the board had been
in trouble long enough.
Logan said it was up to the Mayor
now, and that it was the Mayor now
who was blocking the board on judi
eial decision which "he presumes to
make
Mr.. Mcclellan suggested that Logan
separate his motion. that is. TO include
all the officers up to the road super
visor in one motion. and put the road
supervisor in another separate motion.
Logan added that he had Withdrawn
that part of the motion to which Mr.
Mcclellan objected. owe are ad-
hitting the legality of the Mayor q

The motion TO approve all officers up
TO road supervisor was put and carried
unanimously, Mcclellan voting with
the others.

Question of Wilson.

fWilson is not the head of a depart
ment. and that office is not head Of
a department, said Mr.. Logan. He
said that matter could be taken up
later. He said he held that the dis
trict supervisors are not public officers
under the law.
"They are not heads of depart
ments,' continued Mr.. Logan. 81
don't even admit that the road super
visor of Honolulu is head of depart
ment. He is generally regarded as
head of a department, and therefore /
include him in my motion. Those other
names can be taken up later on. We
want to bring the heads of depart
ments matter to head and give your
honor an opportunity to present other
names. However, will withdraw that
part of the motion with reference TO
