He is a tall, fast youth, who looks like a
real hitter. and Griffith is getting line
on him. Schaefer is SO much impressed
with Phillips showing that he has offered
to wager 500 that the youngster will be
in the major leagues just as soon as he
decides to quit school.
Shanks and Mcbride opened the second
inning of the afternoon game with dou-
bles, and these. together with a single by
Boehling and a put-out, netted the Ma
tionals their first two runs. They did
not score again. however, until the sixth,
when Shanks' hit and steal of second, fol-
lowed by an error gave them another
tally Matters were cinched in the ninth,
when hits by Moeller. Foster and Milan
were followed by a triple over first base
by Shanks which netted three runs. Clarke
pitched the entire game for Virginia,
while Boehling went five innings and
Gallia four. Both of the youngsters were
extremely effective. The score:

CARCAN WILL COACH

While on the Field
Next Year.

Frank Gargan will be at Georgetown
next fall to coach the foot ball team.
He announced this fact. His posi-
ton will be field coach, and 1t is under
stood that he will have an advisory
coach and one assistant.
For some time this matter has been
undergoing consideration on the hill
top. Walsh, graduate manager athletics
at the hilltop, was strongly in favor of
securing Gargan's services, but Gargan
would not accept Walsh's terms until

upon Saturday, and now Gargan has the
job.
Just who will be advisory coach is a
mystery. There are several men men
toned for this position, but their names
will not be decided upon until some
later date.
The assistant coach will be either Bill
Kelliher Of Pennsylvania or Mike Mad
den. the former captain of the Amherst
foot ball team. Both of these men
have been mentioned for the position as
assistant coach, and it is practically GER
tain that one of them will be given
the job.

A week of such games as the team play

the players take no interest, but they
have had it made plain to them that 1t

best efforts in the game here and they are
doing it. There Is no loaf1ng and when

Discipline in the camp is of the best.
No one is exempt from the rules and
Milan and Laporte learned this to their
sorrow yesterday. The regulars were or

teen minutes after that time when La

The explanation for the delay was that.

gle, which detained them. "All right; but
you've got to be punished" replied Grit

over you must both run around the entire
field five times and l stay to see that you
don't cut the corners"
The first men on the field before the
afternoon practice were Milan and La

Mcbride is playing wonderful ball here.
If such thing Is possible he is even bet

games yesterday WAS nothing short of
marvellous He had a lot OF chances and
accepted them all with that ease and

President DidNot See Neice
Open In Her New Play

Montreal, Dec 1.-THE opening o.
Omar, the Tsntmaker," with Mrs.
George Howe, of Columbia, S. c., a
niece Of President Wilson, in an i'm
portant part, in Montreal rather than
in New York, where it has been il
rehearsal this fall, has surprised
theatregoers. Since Mrs. Howe Is
said to have gone on the stage with
the good wishes of the president, t
seemed that she might have induced
him to attend the first performance
had the premier been in a city near
Washington. Yet the producer Rich
ard w. Tully, for some reason now
unknown, decided to bring the com
pany all the way to Canada for its
initial production
This is all the more surprising BE-
cause Mrs. Howe-who, by the way,
plays under the stage name of MAJ
garet Vale-was a guest at the re-
cent wedding of Miss Jessie Wilson
and Francis B. Sayre. In fact, she
had to stop rehearsais of the play in
New York for two days to give her
time to attend the wedding.
Mrs. Howe played small part
with Nine. Nazimore last year. and
she made good. Then she used her
own name. This year when she be-
san she sought an engagement with
MIR. Tully under the name of Mar
garet Vale. Mr.. Tully says he knew
nothing OF her relation to the presi-
dent till she asked permission whom
rehearsals were at their height to go
t Washington for the wedding. She
had to tell then.
Had the president attended a per-
fcrmance of the play in New York,
Philadelphia, or Baltimore, where it
might have been produced, as VOL

The WONDER STORY OF II
THE PANAMA CANAL

where it enters the Culebra cut The
channel through the lake is not a
straight line, but passed around a nd
between many islands. 1t is marked by
buoys which are to be lighted at night.
In fact, the entire length of the canal
will be so brilliantly lighted as to
make the passage by night almost as
save as by day. The Culebra cut, nine
miles long, through the mountains, was
the most difficult part of the canal
construction.

IA the southern end of, the Culebra
cut is the Pedro Migu8 lock, with
lift of 80 it. in. A ship passing
through this must proceed two miles
farther to Mirafores, through another
fresh water lake, almost two square
miles in area, with a surface SIS fl
above mean sea level. At the low-r
end of this lake are the Mirafores
locks, similar in every respect to those
at Gatun, except that they are of but
two steps, instead Of three. Dropping
down through these distance of "a it.

ocean. Here a challen 500 fit wide and

SOMETHING THE TAXPAYERS WILL APPRECIATE

If the Honolulu supervisors want tc try a lit
tie economy that will be much appreciated by ;Er
taxpayer, it would be a gGCd idea for thea to
tackle the taX-ratp, over which they we're given
considerable control by the last legislature The
supervisors of this county can cut the tax-rate,
according to figures worked out by the territor-
ial treasurer, five cents On every hundred dol
lars valuation by the simple method of reducing
their estimate some $4,000.
Maui county supervisors have already seen
the wisdom of holding down their estimate be-
low the full amount the law allows and will thus
save about eight cents on the hundred dollars.
1t is estimated that Oahu's tax-rate can be held
to approximately SLOT instead of SIP. If the
supervisors wish to take the full limit allowed by
law, they can do so, but they also have the very
valuable alternative of reducing their estimates
and thus holding down the tax-rate
The Taxpayers, it is perfectly safe to say, will
recognize and appreciate spirit of economy that
will prompt the supervisors to prune their esti-
mates some $4,000, which can be done if intel
ligently gone about. We hear something of sal
airy raises-the old story, indeed. How about a
little tax-rate revision downward?

MILITIA PAY BILL PROGRESS

In spite of some lively opposition to the mill
tia pay bill now before Congress, that measure
is progressing at good rate and will probably
be taken up by the House at the present session.
It's advocates hope that the bill will be passed
either before March or during the extraordinary
session. The Army and Navy Journal of Janu-
airy Is contains the following:
Hearings were held January II by the House
rules committee on the militia pay bill in order
to enter special rule for early consideration of
the measure Col William E. Harvey, com
handing the second infantry, N. G. D. c., and
member of the executive committee of the Ma
tional Guard Association, addressed the com
mittee Briefly, Colonel Harvey, after expound-
ing the constitutional idea of the militia, said
tOf course, the United States government cannot
make conscripts of us, and this passage of the
bill is only a contract. The government says to
all those who are already in the organized mill
tia, 'Let US pay you su much month, and then
if we need you we will transfer you to the
army would that leave state organizations
intact in time of peace? he was asked. I'm
doubtedly.' Others who made statements were
Gen. E. G. Young, of Illinois; General Chase,
Of Colorado; General Obar, of Georgia, and Gen
eral Fridge, of Mississippi. The committee will
hold further hearings"

THE RIGHT OF THE PUBLIC

The controversy between TIE I1.;tr-IsAnd
company ard the MaSteis' and Pilots Assoca
ton is daily growing in tension There is much
TO be said on both sides The Star Bulletin be-
lieves there is no reason for an open break
which means a strike or a walkOut,-until every
recourse of conference and consideration is ex-
hausted.
Irrespective of the points involved in the con-
troyersy, the letter of the Inter.Island company
TO the association yesterday declared an admir-
able principle for public service corporation to
follow: 1.. .~~. i
For injury either particular individual
the public generally, the company alone is held
sponsible. 1t must follow that wnen the company
valves its right to select agents by whom alone
its duty to both individuals and the public be
carried out, the public wo uld have righteous
FOR complaint.
This statement, we think, is about the only
attitude the corporation can assume. On the
other hand, the masters association quite natur
ally feels that unless it can protect, by arbitra
ton or agreement, its members from sudden dis
missal by the company, these members will be
at the mercy of their employers and very prob
ably marked for sacrifice by reason of their par
ticipation in the dispute 4
again in the clashes of powerful industry and
determined organized labcr. More and more,
however, these clashes are being ayerted by the
still more powerful and determined spirit of ar
bitraticn. The present controversy, we do not
believe has yet exhausted all the aids to har-
mony. II both sides would declare an armistice
for week or q month, pledging themselves
meanwhile to pfalf or sqgI Gpt no overt act, and
then talk the situation over again without heat
81 passion, something might be arrived at
The mterIsland's letter Of yesterday recog
nizes the paramount right OF the public in this
controversy the right to safe and speedy trans
portation of passengers and freight, the right to
get adequate public service from public service
Institution and the public, we feel quite GER
tain, does not believe strike or walkout at
this time is necessary to establish either justice
for the association or to affirm the stand of the
corporation.

OF the statement submitted to the SEN
ate from the territorial Democratic
committee. 1t was then urged that
great detriment would follow the con-
firmation of Governor Frear and his
administration would not be in tune
with the new Democratic regime after
March 4.
Up to this time there has been no
change in the attitude of the Demo-
Gratis toward President Taft's civil ap-
pointments. There is a firm DISPOSE
ton to refuse all of them confirma-
ton. only permitting military and dip
lomatic selections to receive action.
This position alone would preclude the
possibility of Governor Frear's confir-
nation. No protests were needed to
prevent him from being assured the
new tenure of office.
