HAWAIIAN GUN CLUB
WEEKLY SHOOT TODAY.

This afternoon at the Hawaiian
Gun Clubs traps the usual weekly
shoot will take place, and some fine
gun work is looked forward to by the
members of the club.
II will be the eighth shoot for the
present series, and as both Kirk
Porter and J. W. Harvey have two
legs in for the trophy, the interest
In the AFFAIR is very keen. These
two gunners are shooting In great
form at present, and It would sur
prise no one to see then, both grass
the possible number OF birds and
then have to shoot on to decide the
competition.
There is one gratifying feature in
the Hawaiian shoots, and that Is the
absence Of live birds. All the firing
is done at clay birds, and conse-
quently the sight of the slaughter OF
helpless pigeons Is not forced on a
man who likes to watch clever gun
work
The new Leggi,t trap which has
Just been installed by the Gun Club
is doing fine work and is right up to
the best style of trap in the world.
As soon as the trap Is well known to
the members no doubt there will be
rush every Wednesday afternoon
to have try for the birds. The Ha-
waiian0 Gun Club Is in fiourishing
condition at present, and everything
points to great future In trap
shooting In this city. There Is a lot
OF talk about a match against the
Maui gunners and such feature
would be leadin gevent of the year.
The Puunene Gun Club ha strong
muster roll, and some OF their shots
are as good as can be seen In these
Islands.
The weather is ideal for shooting
now, and every Wednesday, after
noon IA crowd OF the gun club menu
Lers turn out for the weekly shoot.
As soon as the present series Is pau
a new one will be started, and II Is
thought that larger number of men
will enter for the event than for any
previous shoot.

Yacht Hawaii
From Garden
Island

The Hawaii returned from her trip
to Kauai last night about 10 o'clock.
She was on the shore at about s
o'clock and could be plainly seen
from Waikiki. From the beach 1t
looked as IL she would not make the
harbor before the wind dropped, al
though she picked up a light breeze
and got in about 10 o'clock.
The Hawaii left Honolulu last
Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock and
was in charge of Chan. Wilder. The
crew was composed OF the following
yachtsmen: Harry Wilder, Tony
King. w. l.. Castle, c. W. C. Deerins.
Alex. Lundquist and Charlie Grenan
- the last two being professional
members of the crew.
The run down to Nawailiwili was
slow on account Of the light breeze,
and port was not reached until Sun
day afternoon. The party got a
warm greeting from the Rice broth.
ers and were made to feel at home.
After lunching at Mr.. Rice's home
an automobile party was made up
and the visitors were taken all over
the plantations. and were given Il
good idea Of the beauties OF the Gar
den Island. The party then return.

The night was spent at Mr.. Mr..
Rice's home, and on Monday morning
the party started out on a goat hunt.
No less than forty-six OF the agile
animals were shot and their skins
removed, some of the specimens be.
ing remarkably fine ones.
The Hawaii left Kauai at 0 o'clock
on Monday night, and. with the aid
of a fairly good breeze. slipped
through the water in great style till
daylight. On Tuesday morning the
breeze had died away lot, and II
was debated II the yacht should go
around the other side Of Oahu or
come up by BARRIERS point.
II took from $3.50 till after noon
for the yacht to make her way from
Kaena point round BARRIERS, but at
about o'clock a slight breeze was
picked up which carried the Hawaii
along to the entrance to the harbor.
II took full hour to beat up the
harbor and to maket fast alongside
the wharf.
The trip was a most enjoyable one
and everybody had q delightful time.
The lack Of wind was the only draw.
back, and that of course could not
be helped. Lundquist was huge
success as cook, and some or the
meals he provided were worthy OF
a first-class chef.
The Hawaii will remain In the
harbor for few days. and will prob
ably be put on the ways ror a gem
eral overhauling and cleaning In
preparation for the race to Kahului.
which takes place on June IL.

STATE TAX RATE
MAY BE RAISED
A BILL PROVIDES FOR TAX OF
SIX MILLS INSTEAD OF
FIVE

One OF the most important bills IN
troduced at the present session OF
the general assembly is that OF Sen
ator Womble, which provides for rails
ing the tax rate from five to six
mills.
The bill provides that the funds
derived from the added mill shall
be appropriated to the counties for
the maintenance OF the public roads.
The bill does not provide how the
funds shall be distributed, but this
feature will have to be taken care
of in a companion bill, which may be
introduced later.
Should the legislature pass the bill
1t will greatly aid the counties ia
pushing forward the road work un-
der the new convict system.
The bill is a constitutional amend
ment and will require a two-t thirds
vote of both houses to pass it.
Senator Womble believes that the
whites and negroes riding on street
cas- should be separated and to this
end he has introduced a bill requr-
ing street car companies to furnish
separate compartments.

BILL IS PASSED
BY THE SENATE
PROVIDING THAT COUNTIES CAN
ABOLISH COUNTY TREASURER
OFFICE IF THEY DESIRE.

In the senate Friday the bill Civ
ing every county in the state author
ity to abolish the office of county
treasurer was passed by a vote Of
80 to /. There has never been any
opposition 10 this BILL and il viii
surely pass the house when it comes
up for action and will become effec-
tive at once, so that those counties
which so desire can make the change
on January l.
Glynn county was one Of the first
to recommend the abolishment of the
office ol county treasurer Several
months ago a resolution was passed
by the board of county commission
ers, recommending such an action.
Later several counties followed the
action of the local board
The bill. however, does not provide
that the office of county treasurer
shall be abolished in all counties, bur
it leaves the r.atter entirely with the
various counties, and each can do
as it desires. The bill does provide
though that in any county where the
Office is abolished the county money
must be kept in the various county
banks
Whether or not Glynn county will
take immediate action after the bill
is finally made law is not known. i
hut inasmuch as this was one of the
first counties 10 recommend a change,
It is likely that il will be decided to
abolish the Office but not until the
present treasurer has served out his
term OF Office He was elected for
period Of two years and his term
will not expire until January J. 1911 /
At the end Of that year it is safe 10
predict that Glynn county will not
have a treasurer.

A STEAMER LINE

ONE PROPOSED FROM SAVANNAH
TO THAT CITY WILL STOP
AT BRUNSWICK.

| A steamer line between Savannah
and Sanford, Fla, WITH -.op at
Brunswick, is the latest scneme q
Savannah people. The Savannah Press
says On the subject:
The matter is now under consid-
Grafton by parties who are amply abe
to establish the line and maintain IL
until it becomes a paying investment.
! Such line as indicated by the cor
! respondence Oh the subject has lons
been needed and it is believed by
those who have given the matter some
thought that it would pay from the
very start.
The boat that it is proposed to
put on the run has guaranteed
speed Of twenty miles an hour, so
that it would easily he the fastest of
its kind in the south. 1t has a draft
of six feet, which would make it easy
to handle in the inland waters be-
tween here and Jacksonville; at the
same time it is understood it could
In making the trip.
An option has been secured on
the vessel, which is one hundred and
seventy five feet long and has eight
hundred horse power engines. 1t has
a capacity Of carrying about three
thousand packages OF fruit and from
three to five hundred day passengers.
1t would make the run between Sa-
yannah and Sanford in about eigh-
teen hours and would touch at land
ings ON the ST Johns, including Pa
latka, Astor and Jacksonville, as wall
as many others. After leaving Jack
sonville, Fernandina, St Marys,
Brunswick and Darien would be
touched. The plan o. the promoters
IS thai the vessel would make day

PROGRESS MADE
BY TROLLEY LINE
WORK ON NORWICH STREET TO
START THIS WEEK-AND
THEN NEWCASTLE.

-Four weeks ago tomorrow the firsr
active work started on the trolley
! line and a record has been made in
the amount of work which has been
accomplished. The grading has been
completed over three fourths Of the
route, rail has been laid over very
nearly half of it, and everything con-
nected with the construction of the
line is progressing as rapidly as pos
sible.
Probably by Tuesday morning the
work of grading Norwich street from
6 to \ viii begin and this will more
than likely be completed before the
end of the week, and then G street
VIII be reached, This is only a short
stretch, reaching from G to Newcas-
tie street and can be completed in
very short time.
AS has beer stated, Newcastle
street has been left to the last. but

as has been the case for the past
month, then cars will be in operation

POT-LEAD WINS
THE WREN RACE
GaIIoping Mary, With a Shiny
Coat, Slips in First
of Four.

The old pot-lead stuff surely did the
trick yesterday in the first wren race
to be held here. Never headed from
the start, in light but fairly steady
breeze, the wren with the black sides
and the shiny surface slipped ahead of
the whole bunch and came in winner
by just about a cable length.
Unfortunately, Expert Stone was I'M
able to sail the Dancing Sally. This
casting no aspersions on the excellent
sailing of Skipper Reilly, but Mr.. Stone
has shown himself such a great past
master in the art of small-hOat sail
ing that it would have been very in
telesting TO see if the pot-lead idea
would have been sufficient to counter
balance the difference in skill be-
tween the skipper of the Galloping
Mary and Mr.. Stone
There was light south wind at half
past ten, the time scheduled for the
boats TO start, but it showed signs of
freshening, and as Harry Wilder stated
that he had trouble with his peak
haliiards that needed adjustment from
aiott, 1t was decided to wait until he
had time to sail down alongside the
Hawaii and fix the stuck halliards from
the ratlines of the big yacht.
A Close Start.
By quarterpast eleven, Harry VIII
der, at the helm, with his brother, the
commodore, acting as live ballast,
brought his boat close enough to the
line to warrant the firing of the first
gun.
The wind was blowing dead at right
angles to the line at the start, and it
was mere question of choice wheth-
er to start off on the port or star
board tack. All of the wrens chose
the port tack. The Sally crossed first
to windward, then came the GalIoping
Mary, well to leeward, and the Wilder
boat and Roaring Gimlet, a trife later,
The Mary soon began to make lead
