A complaint was made before the

Not long ago the Mayor III
ructed the police to remove al
gambling devices from the city.

few slot machines were left il
which there was more or les

nat certain slot machines, wherl

assed as gambling devices.
G. w. Unruh spoke of these a.

CITY BUDGET
IS HELD UP
Principal Disagreement Over
Street and Alley Fund.-
Get More Data.
From Wednesdays Timesett.

From Wednesdays Ilmesett.
According to the budget of tn
city, the way it now stands, the cit,
tax levy will be $50 m,lls. Tn
commissioners do not like to rails
this but some of the department
have hardly enough money to. d
the work planned in them
Johnson said that he thought tn
budget was knlfed to the quick
that there might be some expense
come up and there would have beei
no fund provided to pay them with
Sans expressed himself as salts
fed with the tax levy and oppose'
to raising it. However, Johns"'
felt that his estimate for the STREE
and alleys, which was $1,000 wa
not too high and it had been cut tt
$74oo. He thought that mo-
funds should be provided in som
way and it was seen that the matte
of the city budget could not b
settled in that meeting, so befoi
another meeting Street Comml-
sioner Lofgren will be asked
make an itemized statement of It
probable expenditures, giving MOI
attention to detail than IN the rs
estimate. There have been a ft.
slight changes made in the bude'
but except for this one instance IT,
commissioners are pretty well agree
If it were possible to take tn
money in case more be needed f..
the streets and alleys from anothe
fund, the Com missioner Of Pubii
Utilities could manage all r;gn
even though his appropriation IT,
the streets be small. Under In
law however, he can use ontv t.
sum that is sum provided for IN Ia
annual budget.
The tax levy must be made TN
week and 1t is impossible to do III
definitely until the annual c."
budget has been accepted. Wna
ever changes may be made, If any
will be done within the next f-v
days. The commissioners adj.
iourned to meet at O'Clock Thar

WAHUKU SUGAR
CO. GIVES DANCE
Three Hundred People Enjoy
Hospitality Which Is to Be
Annual Feature
Especial star Bulletin Correspondent,

Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
WAILUKU, July 25.-The dai.cc
given by the management and staff OF
the Waikiki Sugar Company last Sat
urday evening at the Sugar Room at
the Wailulm Mill was a most pleasing
affair. The great room was fitted out
With an excellent dancing floor, upon
which nearly three hundred people en-
jcyed themselves until a late hour.
The music was the best on Maui, and
everyone said that they never enjoyed
q dance more thar this one given by
the WaiIuku Sugar Company.
The decorations were extremely ar
tistic. Two enormous American flags
were draped over the. front entrance.
Streamers Of flags of all descriptions
were flying across the sugar room.
The pretty sight reminded one of the
decorations of large ship on some
gala occasion. The music boys were
placed in the middle of the huge din
ing floor. Seats for those who did not
dance were arranged at either end.
AT the side was a. large number of
seats arranged for onlookers. These
were filed to over-fiowing with the
plantation laborers. who greatly en-
joyed the fun of the evening. Delicious
refreshments were served.
At the time the mill was new and
first opened the management gave q
dance to the public. Since then the
plantation has not given such a func-
ton until last Saturday. 1t is under
stood that the dance or similar form
of entertainment is now to be an an
nual feature, which will certainly be
looked forward to with great deal
of pleasure.
The invitation sent out this year
were much appreciated, for all Maui
turned out to the delightful affair,
which was a decided success.

plause coming from his wide circle
of admirers in this city. who have
not forgotten the inimitable Teddy. as

Teddy is the logical Mikado. in the
charming and ever green Mikado,
which is to follow next week. In

IN THE WOMAN'S WORLD
HONOLULU WOMEN SHOWING MUCH
INTEREST INPALAMA SETTLEMENT

Since the new gymnasium has been
built there have been basket ball con-
tests among teams composed OF girls
OF the settlement and as there IS
much splendid apparatus there the
girls who spend the day in a shop are
able TO receive a good bit Of physical
training. In this same building there
is a large bathing tank where the
aquatic sports are enjoyed. The work
that is done by the boys In Palama
along the line of athletics need not
be dwelt upon here for everyone
knows that they are continually com
peting with bays in other districts.
and that they always make q good
showing.
The work done among the younger
people in Palama naturally occupies
mEcn OF the time of the snperintend-
ent and the other workers lin the
settlement but sit is not the only
work done by them. There are many
families that are cared for by the
settlement, and the older people take
part in all the socia. functions plan
ned for the younger ones. Then. toe,
there are the mothers meetings where
the matrons gather and sew and talk
over the things that are interesting
to mothers. Although to outward APP
pearances the settlement is quite dur
ing the summer months, 1t Is during
that time that the program for the
whole year is planned.

BECKLEY CHlPMUNK
CAUGHT AT ST. FRANCIS

SAN FRANCISCO, July 20.-Just
where the little chipmunk that escap-
&c from Mrs. George Beckley's apart
ments in the ST. Francis month ago
has been hiding is a mystery, but the
politicians consulting with Colonel
Charles Mifflin Hammond on the best
way to elect President Taft were as
toDished to see the same animal jump
through the window and chase up the
curtain.
This little chipmunk created con-
sternation one month ago by sneaking
into Miss Florence Roberts apart,
ment, and rescuers found the actress
Perched on a writing table tossing
manuscripts at the intruder. The chip
munk showed yesterday that he was
still on the job. Colonel Hammond
reached for it in vain. Dan Sullivan
and Jack Boronda, two bellhoys, sue
ceeded in taking the animal into Gus
tody.
The chipmunk will not wander
again about the St Francis for he has
been sent to the pound.
