BY COMMISSION
But AaIa Saloon, One of Those
Strongly Protested, Gets
a Renewal

! Following an executive session last
night the board of liquor license com.
missioners reported that it has denied
license to The Macfarlane Company.
The Macfarlane Company was one
OF the nine liquor concerns against
which the Anti-Salocn League protest
| ed the renewal of their licenses The
protest charged "frenZied finance" in
carrying on the business of the CON-
pany. The financial affairs of the
/, concern were generously aired.
Comment was heard today on the
fact that the board granted renewal
of the license to the Aala saloon. 1t
was in the case of this saloon that thu
charges were made that $12 q week
office boy was the go-between for
Bartlett in getting an interest in the
. saloon. This was the first case prob
ed by the commission and one OF the
proprietors of the saloon displayed
much uncertainty as to his financial
dealings. ..,. .%..... 49,. ..

SEWER AND WATER RATES
UP FOR PUBLIC HEARING

At a public hearing to be held in
the supervisors chamber in the city
hall next Friday afternoon at O'Clock
the city board will consider a resolu-
ton introduced last night by Supervi-
sor Larsen which will, IL adopted,
cause a postponement of the going in
to effect OF the new water and sewer
rates.
The city has expended several thou.
sand dollars in accordance with a law
compelling the water works depart
ment to make complete survey of
the water and sewer works and to pre-.
pare new rates which, the law states,
must be made legal before July 1,
1915. Larsen's resolution proposes to
postpone the going into effect of the
new rates until some time after July
10, but it is question whether such
move would be within the law.

LeiIehua Beer Garden. -
The status OF the Leilehua Beer
Garden, operated by Clifford kimball,
came in for a hearing which was brief
because il was explained in a straight
forward, clear way and corroborated
so fully that the Anti-Saloon League
did not press its protest The protest
arose because Fields statements had
told of an authorization shown on the
minutes of brewery meeting for a
loan of $500 to. Kimball. Also, Field
had found an item of $3.50 in his brew
cry investigation charged to legal ex-
penses" concerning the Leilehua place.
Kimball testified before the commits
sion regarding the financial status OF
his business. HeAsaid he knew moth
ing about the note for $500, dated De-
cember %, 1915, and showing in Mr..
Fields report to have been authorized
for him by the brewery.
Il would like to know if that note
is paid" said Kimball. :<
81 assume it is paid" said Mr.. Field,
who was on the witness stand.
Then | guess that he (Bartlett)
paid it," laughed Kimball.
He knew nothing Of the other item
of $3.50. E..
walter F. Dillingham; and Harold
Dillingham; were called to the stand
and testified that they had no interest
in the Leilehua beer garden. The
land is leased from the Oahu
railroad, but that is the sole eonnec-
ton, they said. They said they have
never given Kimball any financial
backing in this place.
Kimball said there had been move
to form a corporation to run the beer
garden at Leilehua, but when it was
learned that this was against the prin-
ciples of the commission. Kimball
bought out the other stockholders and
started the business for himself. Kim
ball said he has no obligations out
standing.
Kimball's statements and the cor.
impressed the commission
at once with the genuineness of his
stand and no further objections were
voiced. 80.

Special Session Has
Satisfactory Ending
Money Was Well Invested

Atlanta, Ga, Dec. We'll, the
extra session of the Georgia legis-

be not Sc much of useless cat
and-dog fight comedy after all.
Quite a bit of serious work was
finally accomplished and the legis-
lators are now safely back at home
with plenty of time to prepare for
Christmas.
The prohibitionists succeeded in
passing set of measures which
give Georgia one of the strictest
prohibition laws in the world, a
law which will not merely prohibit
the sale of liquor in the saloons
and clubs and kill the beer saloons
but which will actually limit the
amount of liquor man can private
ly have IN his ~own home and will

Last and most important of all
the Western & Atlantic railroad
releasing commission, which Col.
Walter P. Andrews and the other
students of the situation have sat
up at night and studied for months
and which was in sense the most
important thing before the legis-
lature, was finally put in excellent
shape and the commission created
along what are believed to be the
proper lines. Col. Andrews, repre-
sentative from Fulton, has done
more work, perhaps, than any one
man, in working out the details of
the Western 6 Atlantic problem,
and he has received many congratu-
lations from all parts of the state
on the final happy outcome.

1.-THE Man From Mars

The date and the cast for the big
scenic production of "A Man From
Mars" given under the auspices of
the Woman's club will soon be an
nounced. The rehearsals are going
along smoothely and a real dramatic
treat is in Store for the amusement
lovers, Usually the public does not
expect much from local talant but
those who witness the performance
of "A Nan From Mars" will be
agreeably surprised None will realize
that it is an amature performance
The play is an unusually strong one
different in every way from anything
ever produced in this city. The
cast has been carefully selected.
Each of the 20 odd points has been
filled by those perfectly suited to
them and they are being drilled by
a competent director, bringing out
every little detail. Nothing is being
spared 70 make this the biggest.
most perfect and complete produc-
ton ever offered and those who
fail to secure seats will miss a real
dramatic treat. Don't 90 just because
you think you are assisting good
cause or because you have friends
fin the cast. But come to see some
thing that you will enjoy from an
artistic standpoint The play is
really an up to date love story, but
the situations are so unusual and at
times so intense that the audience
seem spellbound. Emogine a very
rich man, one that has been in the
habit of commanding, but who is
conceited and selfish, about mid
night seated before his fire is con-
fronted by a big man in heavy
armour. A mysterious man from
Mars. A man who has wonderful
powers and compells the man of
earth to do all he bids. The million
aire is lead from his beautiful COM
Portable home out into the cold
streets to see how the underworld
lives. The lesson that it teaches is
interesting gripping and convincing.
The scenic and electric effects are
perfect. The big snow scene in the
street of London, the m: sterious
electrical power of the wonderful
man from Mars and the beautiful
story of love and sacrifice that it
unfolds is well worth seeing. This is
not a charity performance but a
real dramatic treat.The receipts will
be turned over to the Woman's
Club and no doubt used for some
good cause.
