IN BUSINESS CIRCLES

Stock dividends by the million
have been dropped into the lap of
stockholders in three Hawaiian en-
terprises this week, and another IL
to be added next week. Yet the
week in the stoak market has been
the dullest OF the season.
Money Market.
No one seems to know Just when
the tide will turn. The shortage In
the money market continues. Some
say It is taxes. others that the banks
are combining to hold things down
In order to prevent speculation, and
still others that the practise OF the
sugar agencies in keeping their
money in the Mainland market in
stead OF bringing II to Hawaii, where
1t has been made. is responsible for
he state of affairs. Probably there
is more or less truth in what they all
say, and the condition can be charg'
ed up to no single cause exclu5lle e.
Ivy. 1t is stated that the sugar agen-
cies are transferring their balances
from New York TO San Francisco.
Bankers report most remarkable
nuctuation in the total amount OF
coin in the local banks. 1t goes up
and down in large amounts, but all
the while the number of depositors Is
increasing. Since the number of the
depositors Is the most accurate ba-
rometer of prosperity, II is safe to
say that the city Is going ahead all
the time. but apparently hasn't the
coin with which to make any great
show of It.

HIGH SCHOOL CLASS
HAS A DIFFICULTY
Seniors Split and Separate Or
CARNATIONS Are Formed and
Will Be Maintained.

There is dissension in the senior
class at the high school. A regula,
and an insurgent party have develop
ed and separate class meetings are be-
ing held. One faction will not rec
oSnize the election of the other fac
ton and vice versa.
The peculiar situation results from
the fact that there are but two mem
bers of the senior class and they re-
fuse to agree. Milo Hunt and Ralph
Darling have acquired the number of
credits necessary for graduation. The
rest of the fourth year students will
not complete them until the end of
the year. Therefore these boys met
and organized senior class When
the vote for officers was made II was
found that Ralph had voted for him
self for president, president, sec
rotary and treasurer. Milo had voted
for himself for the same offices. Mel
Their would yield. so Charles Westaby
was brought in as referee. He decid-
ed that Milo Hunt was entitled to all
the offices and the emoluments there
Of. This caused the split in the party.
Now each boy meets with himself
separately, puts motions and decides
them In the affirmative or negative
rs his fancy dictates. The whole
school is amused at the antics of
these precocious seniors.

MARRIED WOMEN ARE
GIVEN MANY RIGHTS
State of Washington Is Liberal in
Allowing Them Property
and Its Management.

Married women in Washington,
thanks to the principle of community
in operation. have legal priv
ileges that should make women folks
envious in other states where the COM
mon law idea entirely holds sway, says
the Pasco Reporter.
Under the dear old common law 1t
was sacrilegious to think that q wo-
man was capable of having any say in
the handling of her husbands prop
erty. Not until she became a widow
did her property rights become mat
ter of Importance and her interest in
most states even then is less than the
women of Washington enjoy during
their entire married life.
Spends Her Own Money.
All property earned after marriage,
in washington, by either party to the
marriage, belongs to the community.
The wife has an equal interest in 1t
with her husband. BY the will the bus
band can only bequeath half OF lie
property. He cannot dispose Of the
half that is the woman's- property.
Land or money given to the wife as
& gift, legacy or coming to her as an
Inheritance, is her own property. Fer
husband has no interest or control in
it. All money or property belonging
to her before marriage also remains
her own separate property and is le-
gally free from III Interference by the
husband.
Separate property the wife can han
die or dispose ,f with the same legal
CELEBRITY and freedom as if she were a
single woman.

TWO THOUSANR CARS
PROMISED SHIPPERS
For Use Within the Next Three
Weeks If They Then Have a
Need for Them.

Two thousand cars within the next
three weeks have been promised to
shippers in the Yakima valley If
they need them. This promise has
been made through representatives of
the railroad in the lower valley and
is accompanied by the statement that
the cars are now being held for ice
which the railroad is storing at this
time of the year throughout It's en-
tire length.
Hay men say that cars to be of any
use to them must come very soon now
as unless the hay is shipped during
the time it is needed 1t will not be
taken at all but will be allowed to re-
main in the valley. They say that at
no time since August last have they
been able to get a sufficiency of cars
for their purposes and that the ship
ping has dragged along from time to
time until now there is desire in
some quarters to cancel orders. They
are anxious to see the hay moved
out.
Some lower valley hay men say that
in their opinion there is not more
than enough hay In the valley to feed
the stock If the balance of the win
ter should prove severe. This is
probably true with regard to the
stocks left in the hands of the grow
ers
