Forty-Six Per Cent Income In
crease for HaWaii's Coun-
ties in Last Four Years.

The counties of this Territory have
taken in during the year ended June
80 last nearly half a million dollars
more than they took in during the 1907
period, or, to be exact, the increase Of
1910 income over that Of 1907 amounts
to $443, 111.07.
Honolulu S increase was nearly $780,
600; Hawaii's was over $4,000;
Maui S was over $105,000, and Kauai s
was over $37 900.
The percentage of increase of county
income throughout the Territory in 1910
over 1907 was 1856
The comparison is made between the
years 1910 and 1907 as normal years
For purposes of comparison the amounts
recorded below as receipts for 1906
should be considerably smaller, both be
cause that was the year in which the

half and because the amounts paid to

Hanson played his usual dashing game,
but was outridden good deal by the
Maui men, who shut him off from the
lead. This feat seemed to be Frank
Baldwin s particular function. Han
sons horse went down with him once
just as he was racing after the bali
with clear field before him, and he
lost a good chance for a long dash.
He stayed right with the pony, how
ever. and came up with him. In the
third period Hanson tried a serrel pony,
which attracted a lot of favorable COM
ment before the game, but the animal,
while good material, was not polo wise,
and after losing a good chance to get
away with the ball by the awkward
ness of his mount, he returned the horse
to the paddock. The sorrel was a Troop

The Maui and Fifth Cavalry tours
played gentle sort of polo match
at Moanalua Field yesterday afternoon,
and the hall played more of an elusive
game than heretofore during the tourna-
ment
The ex-champions piled up ? score of
twelve to the Cavalry three and three
quarters, although the Cavalry team
seemed to play better than they did
against the Oahu four and the Maui
team did not show up as strong as
against the Kauaians last Saturday.
The Cavalry had a good deal Of hard
luck. and then there was only about
one-quarter the crowd that turned out
on Saturday to wave the infuriating
colors before their eyes and make them
snort and 90 to it.
Furthermore, the Garden Islanders
have already captured the champion
ship, and the romp for second place
does not call for superhuman effort.
Some of the Maui players said, after
the game was finished, that their horses
were not even tired, whereas on last
Saturday they were pretty much ex-
hausted and some of them were Grip
pied.
There was good deal of hard riding
back and forth over the full length of
the field. but when it came to the scrlm-
mage everybody waited for everybody
else to take the initiative. Now and
then one would kind of paw the bali
over with his mallet to see if it was
alive. Then the elusive little thing
would try to creep out of harm s way
under horses feet, and sometimes 1t
looked as though it might get away
of itself and find a safe hiding place
from its tormentOrs. but after four or
five had waltzed around on top of It
someone. attracted by its feeble wabb!e
after extricating itself from under a
cruel hoof, would hook it out. Then,
after two or three had taken swipe
at il and missed, a lucky stroke would
send t whizzing over the field and the
whole bunch would race past the bail,
each one tanning at it as he dashed by.
About then it would stop. and all the
nursuers would come back and surround
The little fugitive again, and the same
neartreNuluS eteht "oti' Ut
Had Even nance.
Throughout good part of the game
both sides had an even chance 10 score
The ex-champions would carry tne
snbere to the Cavalry end of the fei'
and over the line outside the goal posts.
Then the Cavalry would get II on the
drive ont and rush it clean to the other
"a of tho fold After one or two
fn+i7e efforts there. Maui would get
the ball again and soon have aho'he'
chance for a goal stroke. ,.-.
The Cavalry punched up several Unit
when they had the ball in the LEAD, anu

CHINESE STUDENTS

for Purpose of Study on
the Mainland.

Seventy-eight Chinese students who
are to enter American schools are ex-
pected here next week on the Pacific
Mail liner China en- route to San Fran
cisco. They are to be educated at the
expense of their government, the funds
being derived from the boxer indem-
nifty money which the United States
RENTED to the Chinese government.
The students, according to a dis
patch from Washington, are expected
TO reach San Francisco On September
10, and the China is due there at that
time. although it is possible the young
men may be aboard the liner Siberia
due on Monday from the Orient. Local
Chinese have not. so far, made any
preparations for reception to them,
although they may be met by the Chi
nese consul and staff.
The Washington government has been
notified of the departure of the students
by the United States minister to China.

be to finish, he declared, and he would
neither accept nor give quarter.
