BOY. JUMPED
FROM THE CARS
Fat Policeman Followed Him
and There Was Lots
of Pi!ikia.

The outbound train due at Kawaia-
loa, the station beyond Haleiwa, at II
'clock yesterday, carried a fat, cross
eyed policeman and small boy, whom
the officer was taking back to the re-
form school. At Kawaialoa there were
some pretty halfwhite girls on the
platform and the policeman ran his
head way out of the window, as the
train moved off at ten mile clip, to
watch them. Opposite him, across the
aisle, sat the young prisoner. As the
train ran along near sandy bottom,
Conductor Winder saw the lad jump
up, plunge out of the open window and
hit the sand like a bounding football.
In another moment he was making for
eanefeld like scared rabbit.
The policeman, aroused by the yell
the passengers raised, pulled in his
head, found out what the trouble was
and ran to the end of the car. With
a detective insight which he must have
learned from Kalakiela, he rubber
necked down the wrong side, the one he
himself had been sitting on, and saw
nothing. The conductor told him to
look the other way and then he saw
the boy bounding and leaping for the
cane, which was quite a distance off.
But the officer was game. Although
the speed of the train had been notched
up to twelve miles, the cross-eyed cop
gave a prodigious jump and, hitting

Representative Cohen had even his
when he was accosted in the lobby
of the House by fair delegate from
the Honolulu Teachers Association and
had the result of special meeting of
the members of that association laid
before him.
''Oh, Mr.. Cohen!" called the lobby
Est for the teachers, dashing after him
just as the House had risen for the day
and the members were streaming out.
The honorable member from the
Fourth tipped his panama, excused
himself to the other members with
whom he was walking and crossed the
lobby to where the reckoning dele
gate had taken up her position.
"And. what may have the pleas
ure of doing for you?'' he said, in
that tone of urbane politeness for
which the manager of the Orpheum is
famous
ooh, Mr.. Cohen, was sent up here
by the other girls. You know, we had
a meeting of the teachers today and
the men said: why don't you girls
so and see the members of the Legis-
fature? You know them all, and so
we girls thought out plan about taxes
and they asked me to come and see
YOU about it, not because / know any
thing about taxes, because I don t
know a thing except that that tax Mr..

asking you to just put an amendment
or whatever it is on your bill. -

WHY SPEAKER HOLSTElN
WANTS ANNUAL SESSIONS

''The matter of legislation on the
part of Congress to so amend the Or
ganie Act as to permit of annual ses-
sions of the Legislature is not an
attempt to increase the expense of
government, but straight business
proposition 10 expedite business and
bring the government into closer touch
with the people at the same cost, F"
said Speaker Holstein of the House of
Representatives, after he had had a
discussion of the matter with Presi-
dent Morgan of the Chamber of Com
nerce.
''In the first place." explained the
Speaker TO the press representatives in
the House. 'fthere is no intention of
asking that annual sixty-day sessions
be allowed, but two sessions of thirty
days each. This will not increase the
expenses for clerks, printing. officials
for the House or indemnity for the
members. The only increase there will
be, will be in the item of mileage. and

Mayors appointee, Paele, given the
Job. But when Mr.. Paele took the
horses and mules and started to put
them in the county s stable which hap
pens to be on Mr.. Peck's land, the lat
ter said FNay, nay!"
When Mr.. Paele insisted that the
stable was an asset of the government,
Mr.. Peck asked him to show him, as he
was from Missouri. Then Mr.. Paele
wrote to the Mayor and the Mayor
looked up the matter and then notified
the board that the county was up
against it, and that Mr.. Peek seemed
to have an undisputed right to the
stable.

verbal agreement, but the Mayor stat
ed to the board that there was prob
ably no legal right of the county to
take the stable off the land.
The supervisors admitted the force
of the Mayors statement and talked
about getting a long lease on some
property in the district where the new
stables could be erected and the coun-
tv could be sure that it really owned
them.
It is said also that many of the cor
rails erected on poundkeeper' property
with pau0+v money the
same sort of agreement had with Peck,
and that if the poundkeepers were
changed, new corrals would have to be
built.

PRESIDENT THANKS
THE BUCKEYE CLUB

The President has written as follows
to Judge S. B. Kingsbury, president of
the Buckeye Club:
The White House, March 6, 1909.
My Dear Sir; I beg to acknowledge
receipt of your favor of the 18th of.

the Buckeye Club of Hawaii for the
resolution of congratulation passed ON

troversy over road and bridge build
ing. Engineer Gere has fatty refused
to continue further work in Koolau liz
Road Overseer Paeie continues in his
present antagonistic attitude toward
him and his plans for repairing bridges
and roads. Mr. Gere told the Super
visors on Friday evening that Paele
was stubborn as mule and absolutely
refused to take orders or suggestions
from Gere, and that Paele intended re-
pairing Waiahole bridge in his own
way. which he said would only be to
squander the public funds Gere stat
ed that Paele was utterly incompetent
and should not be retained in Office.
Something was said during his re-
marks about a club holding meetings
at Waikane every Saturday night at
which the choice of lunas and work
men for the following week was made,
and IN response to a query as to wheth-
ed it was a political club, he replied
that it was Democratic club. This
caused the Mayor to rebuke the engi-
neer admonishing him to keep politics
out of the matter.
Tt is said that some of the differ
ences between Gere and Paele arose
from the fact that Paele recently d,A-
missed Mr.. Ceres brother as luna.
However, it is generally admitted that
Paele is incompetent.

Mr.. Cohen pulled down his vest,
added some to his inviting smile, and
waited.
Perhaps you IL think we're silly,
but I dom think you will, Mr.. Cohen,
because you know the horrid way they
are acting about our salaries and keep
ing back that 8 per cent, just as if
we always wanted to get marked down
checks the same as marked down things
at bargain counter, but we saw in
the paper that you were working for
bill to make people pay money on
the income they get from sugar stocks
and things-I think it is 2 per cent.
for everyone who has four thousand
aollars-and so we girls thought that
if I came down and asked you that
you would get up and tell the other
men here that you think they had bet
ter say per cent. and that will give
Mr. Babbitt lot more money and we
can get our per cent. Don't you
think that would be a good plan, Mr..
Cohen9 Say yes so that I can go
back and tell the other girls it will be
all right. -
Mr.. Cohen took some moments to
catch his breath.
"Oh, yes.' he stammered. sob,
yes, YES. indeed. But, you know, I
eouldn Il say SO right away. You see,
/ IN awfuliy busy right now, but I'll
speak to the members about it. oh,
I think it II be all right. Yes.
And, as the dainty lobbyist sailed
down the front steps of the Capitol
on her way back to tell the other girls
the good news, Cohen sat down on the
inside stairs and famed himself with
his panama.

the most any member receives now is
forty dollars.
''The annual sessions will be of ad-
vantage to the Territory in many
ways, as was pointed out by Governor
Carter, whose idea it is, and which was
also pointed out two years ago in an
editorial in the Advertiser. Matter of
legislation can be attended to more
promptly than at present, and the man
ner in which the wishes of the people
as expressed through the Legislature
viii be carried out by the Territorial
departments will be then as the people
desire.
As it is now, the heads of the de-
partments do not care the snap of the
finger for the Legislature from the
minute we adjourn until we convene
again. The departmental heads are
humble enough when the Legislature is
in session, but do not consider US in
the least at any other time. This is
not intended to be the case in a pop
Mar government. But these depart

House Concurs and Lifts
Dead Bill From the
Table to Serve as a
Substitute.

Governor veto message number
five came into the House as the last
order of business yesterday morning,
and, like every other veto message but
one, was kindly received and endorsed
by the members. The veto fell this
time ON Cohen's income tax amending
bill, which raises the limit of exemp-
ton to $500, the stated reasons being
that the bill had technical flaws in its
construction.
The Governor having suggested a
substitute bill, the House dug into the
pile on the table and produced Alton
SOS bill, which was near enough
like Cohen's to be pounded into the
same shape only better and which had
already got as far as second reading.
This bill was started on its way after
being fixed. >
The bin to provide for the appoint
ment of lunacy commission was
passed for the third time and sent up
to the Senate, where it will have to
be considerably amended before it can
be regarded as first-class legislation.
It provides for one thing for an appeal
from the findings of the commission
to circuit court jury.
Many Committee Reports.
A batch of committee reports were
presented when the House came to or
der yesterday morning, included among
these being the report of the Health
and Police Committee regarding Cor
rea 5 bill 20 make the Rapid Transit
company equip their cars with air
brakes. The committee, basing their
report on knowledge gained in practical
tests, stated that the Peacock brake,
now in use, was sufficient for all cars
under fourteen tons in weight. For
cars over that weight they recommend
ed emergency air brakes, amending Cor
rea s bill to that effect The report was
adopted
The same committee submitted SUBJ
stitute bill to that offered forbidding
the sale of iced fish except certain
named varieties. The bill as substitut-
ed very properly reverses things and
gives list of the fish which cannot
be iced for SALE The list includes
thirty-nine varieties. All small fish

Depository Bill.
The Finance Committee submitted a
substitute depository bill which pro-
vides that every public accountant
other than the Treasurer, receiving and
disbursing money belonging to the Ter
ritory may deposit to his official credit
and keen all moneys received by him
in such banks as may be designated by
the Treasurer with the approval of the
Governor until such moneys are re-
mitted to the Treasurer as required by
law, and such public accountants shall
not be responsible for such moneys

BILL RAISING INCOME
TAX EXEMPTION VETOED
ON TECHN|CAL|T|ES
The Publication Bill Is
Cuffed About by the
Senate and Finally
Postponed Again.

The receipt of veto message from
Governor Frear that lacked the Chief
Executives signature and considera-
tion of Senate Bill No. So on third
reading helped to enliven the proceed
ings in the upper house yesterda Y
morning. The discovery that the Gov
ernor IS signature was not appended
TO his veto of Cohen's income tax bill
amused the Senate, and although Pres
ident Smith was inclined to continue
with the consideration of the message
the objections of Senators Kalama,
Harvey, and Mccarthy finally caused
a recess of five minutes, during which
the message was regularly signed.
The Senate seems determined to pre-
vent the publication bill from either
being given decent interment or receiv-
ing Endorsement and being passed along
to the House. It was taken up on third
reading yesterday and although Senator
Moore IS motion to table it was lost, it
failed to pass third reading. But the
Senators, who apparently think that the
session laws ought to be published in
Timbuctoo or the Palmyra Islands, to
break the local monopoly" were not
content. Makekau made his usual mo-
tions to reconsider and then had the
bill deferred until next Monday.
Senator Robinson of Maui gave no
tice that Governor Frear's nominations
will be taken up next Friday. it being
necessary to give FIVE DAYS. notice

The bill to allow the present Board
of Supervisors of Hawaii to pay the
claims of officers under the act of 1908,
and declared void by the Supreme
Court, passed on its second reading
Asks for Appropriation.
Upon the converting of the Senate
yesterday morning Senator Harvey in
troduced a resolution asking that the
sum of $4,000 be inserted in the APP
preparation bill for the extension of
Kuakini street from Nuuanu to Punch
bowl
The bill amending the existing law
so as to extend the tax exemption
period for property used in tobacco
culture was considered on second read
ing.
Senator Mccarthy thought that the
bill should extend the period of exemp-
ton on all of the subjects dealt with
in the original bill so the date of
exemption expiration would be uni
form Coelho thought that rubber
should be included in the exemption
extension. The amendments offered
were accepted and the bill passed on
second reading.
Senate Bill No. IS, relating to Cir
cult Court terms, was considered on
third reading, but was deferred one
week on the motion of Baker. The
Senator from Hawaii stated that the
bill depended upon other measures that
were still in the hands of the special
committee of the delegation from Ha-
wall. Senator Chillingworth thought it
was about time that the committee re-

Bounty on Skunk Skins.

A copy of the resolutions recently adopted by the board of supervisors of Gila county announcing that no more skunk skins were to be brought into the court house of that county was received yesterday by the local board. This embargo on skunk skins was in consequence of an order by Judge Lewis of the district court en- joining all persons from taking these doud- smelling pelts into the court house. The order amounts almost. if mot in fact, to a repeal of the bounty Jaw as to skunk skins, for there is mo other place than the board of(su- pervisors where trappers can take the skins for the purpose of claiming the bounty, and that cannot be. claimed until the skins are presented.-Arizona Republican.
