Fine Present
ByEmplOyees
To u. n. S."

There was a very pleasant func-
ton last Thursday evening at Ka-
hului, when the employees of the
Kahului Railroad proceeded in a
body to the home of Mr.. J. N. S.
Williams and took him by surprise.
The crowd marched to the house
and at once proceeded to inform
Mr.. Williams as to their reason for
calling. Mr.. Williams was sur
prised, but was equal to the occa-
sion, and invited the deputation in
side.
AS soon as the house was enter
ed Mr.. w. S. Mountcastle, one of
the oldest employees of the COM
pany, presented Mr.. Williams, on
behalf of the railroad, with a mag
nificent gold repeater watch, which
was accompanied by a gold and
platinum chain with a gold knife
attached. Mr.. Williams initials
were engraved on the watch, and
the inscription also stated that the
watch was presented by the EN-
ployees of the Kahului Railroad
Company, as mark of esteem.
The presentation speech was as
follows:
Mr.. Williams,
l have been requested by the
employees of the Kahului Railroad
Company, partially assembled here,
to express to you our regret in
your severing your connection
withsthis company.
During the past six years that
you have been Superintendent, the
relationship between you and the
employees has been informally
pleasant and, when questions of
dispute arose, they have been set
tied in a fair and square manner.
During your incumbency of
Office you have accomplished
much to advance the interests of
this Company. l refer particularly
to the building up of Kahului, the
breakwater and your final effort,
the Haiku extension, the bridges
of which, will be a lasting monu-
ment to your memory. We are

Ends Life
In Despair

Last Tuesday Japanese contrac-
tor named Ishimoto committed
suicide by cutting his throat. The
man had resided at Lahaina, where
he was engaged in contract work.
His latest venture was tunnel,
and it is alleged that he lost money
on the contract. This fact preyed
on his mind so much that he de-
cided to shuttle off this mortal coil.
The unfortunate man was in debt,
it is said, and he could not face his
creditors. The body was discover
ed by some friends who went to
call him in the morning. The man
was then dead and the terrible
wound that he inflicted on himself
must have caused almost instant
death.
A coroner's jury was summoned,
and the full facts of the case were
then discovered. A verdict of sui
eide was returned.

I. B. N. Have
Good Fun

There was some good fun down
at the Wailuku Gymnasium on
Wednesday evening last, and about
twenty members of the 1T. B. M. +"
club turned up to see the sport.
Basketball, medicine ball and bowls,
were gone in for. Everybody was
out for fun and they certainly got it.
A bowling match between G. d.
Lufkin and R. A. Wadsworth was
the feature of the evening, and the
go was watched with interest.
Lufkin won for the first time, it is
said, and his victory over Wads-
worth was greeted with cheers.
There was much good natured josh
ing over the contest, and another
game is sure to be rolled soon.
D. H. Case, who has just return
ed from Honolulu, was beaten by E.
Vincent. The sea trip had evident

Especial Correspondence. ]

HONOLULU, April lS.-Inquiry
among the business men of this
city develops information of q
character that is not inspiring.
When the stock market is lively all
lines of business are good, for what
reason is not evident, but the peo-
pie seem to think that if stocks are
keeping UP in price and there is a
regular movement from one to an.
other of the investors there is money
in circulation and it circulates final
ly through the streets of the mer-
chants of Honolulu. Now stocks
are dull. The tariff agitation on
the mainland is reflected in every
line of trade represented in the ter
ritory, People will not let go OF
their money because of fear that the
plantations in which they have in
terests will be wiped out of existence,
as some of them surely will be, with
sugar free from anywhere on the
globe.

Club
Is Launched

At the meeting of the charter
members of the Maui Boat and
Country Club that was held on
Monday evening last at Kahului,
about thirty people attended and
showed the greatest interest in the
proceedings. There were many de-
tails settled, and the club was pro-
perly launched with everything
pointing to very successful issue.
The most important matter settled
was the capitalization of the club.
The capital stock was set at $4,000
and the shares are to be sold at a
par value of $40. 1t was the origi-
nal intention to place the value OF
the shares at $40. This was changed,
however, by the vote of the meet
ing, and the new scheme was put
through. Payment of shares may
be made in installments of $5 each,
at intervals of not more than thirty
days.
Each director was given list to
get filled with intending stock
holders and members. The lists ere
rapidly filling, and there should be
no trouble in disposing of the $50
shares.
The matter of site for the club
was also taken up, and it was prac-
tically decided that tract of land
40 acres in extend-be secured on
the beach, just beyond the Searby
beach house and before the Camp
one beach house is reached.
1t is planned to build a clubhouse
that will cost about $4,000. The
building will face out to sea and
will be q comfortable, commodious
one story structure. The main room
will be 40 by 60 feet, and will be
admirably adapted for the purpose
of holding dances or concerts. A
platform. ten feet deep, will run
along one end of the room. This
will do for an orchestra or for con-
cert purposes.
There will be two wings branch
ing out from the rear of the club
house, and between them will be an
open courtyard. The rooms fol
lockers, shower baths, etc, will be
located in the wings.

Took Five
Fine Cups

Yes, we did well, and it might
have been better" replied Frank
Baldwin to an expression of con-
graduation from a MAUI News
man. We took five cups out of
nine, and only for some bad luck,
the total might have been seven. l
was out of the game with the
Slashers for a while. l thought
they were ours, but it went the
other way.
The players we met are fine
lot of fellows, and l hope that they
will Journey to Hawaii next year.
Mr.. Baldwin looks i'll the pink
of condition and, to most people,
appears to be trife thinner than
when he left the islands. He, how
ever, says that there is little or no
difference in his weight at the pre-
sent time, and when he sailed for
California.
Some of the polo. fields in Cali
fornia are different to those in
Hawaii, says Mr.. Baldwin. While
there are some turf fields there are
others that are constructed of
earth. The ball travels differently
on the earth fields. In the estima-
ton of Mr.. Baldwin, Moanalua is
as good as some of the fields and
better than others. Still, in his
opinion, the best fields in, perhaps,
the whole world, are to be found
in California.
Trainer Hannon Eas paid high
compliment by Mr.. Baldwin, who
declared that the man who had
charge of the Hawaiian ponies is a
wizard at keeping the mounts III
good candition and ready for the
FRAY.
Mr.. Baldwin's leg that was in.
jured in the go against the Slash
ers, is still bothering him. 1t will
be some considerable time till it is
perfectly we'll again. The knee is
painful and will take some watch
ing.
Three of the Hawaiian ponies
have been loaned to the All-Amer'
lean team that is to go up against
England in the near future. The
island ponies were voted to be the
best in California.
Mr.. Baldwin said it was good tC
be back in Hawaii again and the
good rains have made him very
cheerful.

Very Close
Tennis Go

Headway is being made with the
Married VS.. Single tennis tournr-
ment at Kahului, but the recent
rains have prevented some matches
from being brought off.
The contest between the Batch
lors and the Benedicts is, so far, a
very close one. The Single men
lead by three games at present, and
that should be close enough to
please everybody. The Benedicts
declare that they will soon make
up the difference and, as there are
six sets more to be played, they
may do so.
The latest matches played were
as follow: +. ]. Walker and R.
Walker beat H. B. Weller and A.
c. Rattray, GA, GA, Then match
that resulted in one set each was
played. w. Walsh and Perry beat
H. B. Weller and A.C. Rattray, rs,
and then lost GA. The race for
the honors will be right up to the
wire and, as the end approaches,
the excitement is becoming more
intense.

Kula Pipe
Is Improving

Owing to pleasing change in
the administration of the Kula
pipe line affairs, there is good news
to report regarding the way in
which the line itself and the water
it conveys, is being now cared for.
During the month of March, the
the cost of the up-keep of the line,
was about $3.50. This amount in
cluded the salary of the superin-
tendent.
1t has been found that careless
turning on of water at the water
head i'll the past, was responsible
for lot of the troubles experienced.
The man who turned the water
on simply let it run till the 12-inch
wooden stave pipe was full to over
flowing. His idea was that the water
would somehow find its way into
the 6-inch pipe further down, and
be carried to where needed. What
really happened was that the pres
sure was SO great that the smaller
pipe simply broke in many places,
and the gang of men were kept
constantly on the job of repairing
the leaks. That all cost money and
the bills mounted up.
The plan now is to have Palaile.

on just sufficient water to keep the
pressure right. The trouble along
the pipe line is thus obviated and
the water flows we'll A gang OF
four men now work on the1 pipe
line, and most of their task is in
the burying of the pipe. By plac-
ing stones on the makai side of the
pipe, it is found that rain and wind
soon brings down enough soil to
bnry the pipe. Over one mile has
been already buried in the manner
outlined.

Bowling Is
Going Well

So far as the bowling tournament
at Puunene has gone, the full re-
suits are given below. The games
have attracted much attention, and
the bowlers of the whole group are
being kept in touch with the state
of the tournament. The high sound
ing titles of the teams have, alone,
made the sporting community sit
up and take notice. But, joking
aside, the struggle is a great one,
and the efforts made before the
start to get as nearly as possible
equal teams, has resulted in some
close contests.
J. The FIRST games of the series
showed that the All-Stars were the
better of the Champions, on the
day-or rather evening. The scores
went as follows: All-Stars-Dei-
merit, 4S0; Campbell, 422; Comes,
443. Total, 1345. Champions
Cramer, APT; Hansen, 3S3; Muir
ray, $50. Total, 1166.
The next lot that fought it out
were the All-Stars and the Cham
pions in their second game. The
scores were: All-Stars-Deinert,
SOP; Campbell, 431; Comes, Ali.
Total 1874. Champions-Cramer
400; Hansen, 433; Murray, 4S7,
Total 1920.
The Victors played the Invinci-
bles OH another evening and the
result, in the first game, was a win
for the latter team by a score OF
14O5 to 1912. Victors-Scholtz
511; Young, 3SS; Belts, 373. In
vincibles-Sa Savage, 514; Thomson,
424; Macleran, 467.
There is a possibility of match
being arranged later on between
the Married and Single employees
of the big plantation.

Old Resident
Is Missing

Just one week ago an old man
who originally came from the Gil
bert Islands, and whose name is
Viela, started out in an outrigger
canoe for an all night fishing ex-
pedition from Maalaea Bay. The
canoe sailed out about seven O. clock
in the evening, and no further
word or sign of the old South Sea
Islander has been had.
The old man, who was a retain
er of the Cornwell family, was well
known around Wailuku and the
rest of Maui. He had been on This
island for many years, and he never
expressed a wish to return to his
far away home south of the Equa-
tor.
Viela was in the habit of going
out fishing at odd times, Last Sat
urday the old man announced his
intention of going out on an eX-
cursion, and asked some friends to
meet him at McGregor,s IS Landing
on Sunday morning. The friends
kept their appointment, but saw
no sign of Viela.
Tic police were notifTd of the
disappearance of the old man, and
search was at once begun. A
party went over to Kahoolawe in
the hopes of finding the man there.
1t was thought that he might have
reached that island. However, nc
sign of Viela was seen and the po-
lice returned to Maui.
The fear is expressed that the
old man was blown out to sea and
that he could not manage to gel
back to land again. However, there
is still a hope that he may turn ur
again.

Gamblers Are
Being Caught

Gamblers are getting it in the
neck now-a-days, and during the
past week nc less thea % were
either fined in various amounts, or
forfeited bail in preference to ap-
pearing in court.
A bunch of 26 Filipinoes were
caught redhanded on a lot near
Market street on Sunday. They
were engaged in the facinat-
ing game of Monte" which is as
easy way to lose or win money,
as has ever been invented. The
police had a spy engagedin the game,
and when he gave the signal the
officers swooped down and surround
ed the bunch. The gamblers were
taken by surprise and although four
of them broke through the Gordon,
they were eventually captured and
taken with their countrymen to
court. Judge Mckay fined each of
the defendants So and costs.
At Kahului there was also a raid,
and 13 japanese who were having
the time of their lives playing one
of their national games, were arrest
ed. The whole bunch put up bail
money ranging from So to SO,
which they forfeited next morning
when their names were called in
court.

Is Accepted

Although the fact that Mr.. j. n.
S. William has resigned from his
position of Superintendent of the
Kahului Railroad has been known
for some time, the official act that
severed his connection with the big
company was only consummated
on Wednesday last. The directors
of the Kahului Railroad Company
formally accepted Mr.. Williams
resignation on that day, and a
letter to that effect reached him by
mail.
Mr.. Williams and his wife will
now start off for a trip to England
and Europe. They will travel all
over the continent, and will also
visit points of interest in the British
Isles.
Mr.. Williams has seen to a sue
cessful conclusion the task of ex-
tending the Kahului Railroad to
the Haiku district. His able ad-
ministration has brought the rail
road company up to high state OF
efficiency, and he leaves the COM
pany with the regret of all those
with whom he has been associated
for years past. Mr.. w. w. Walsh
will now assume the reins OF Office,
and will be superintendent of the
company.
