Braves 4, g.. Louis /

Punehbowl is in eruption again, but
the streams that flow down its age.
Scared slopes are Of Joy and qlndness,
not lava, for the Braves went home
late yesterday afternoon from Athletic
Park with the bacon, the game, the non.
nant Of the 1916 Pacific League series
and the goats of the Saints and
the hackers Of the Blue and Red.
The Braves deserved their victory
yesterday, for they played bali from
beginning to finish, not that the Saints
shirked. The Braves knew enoueh to
take advantage of the breaks that came
their way, while the Saints did not.
The one particular bright star Of the
game yesterday was Perry's mound
work. To him the Braves owe much,
Although hit seven times safely by tho
opposition, Perry wae at no time in
Danger, for his team mates backed him
up wonderfully well and on two or
three occasions held the Saints TO no
runs when II looked the other way TO
all the world.
Perry DOesn't Like Lai Sin
Perry famed Lai Sin just as often
as the latter came to bat Including
he previous game, Perry struck out Iai
Sin Just eigh times in succession. The
It. Louis management finally tumbled
to the fact that some one should take
Mr.. Lai s PLACE at bat and in the ninth
sent Hoke in for him. Hoke also struck
out, the last out Of the game, at that
The crowd, despite the waterfront
counter attractions, was a fairly good
one, but could have been better, for the
game was full of pep and vim during
the two hours and six minutes IL lasted
The umpiring was good, both Henry

strikes, and his brother "Bob, - on
bases, were ON the job.

Braves were Silva (3), Cordeiro and

When The finance committee of the
Young wohen's Christian Association
closed the campaign Office on Saturday
afternoon $16, 200.25 in cash and
pledges had been received for the
budget of che coming year and to re-
move the debt still standing on the

I year ago. S r., Eh. L..
That this WINS n most democratic
campaign and that the Association is
appreciated by all classes of the com
munity Is evidenced by the flct that
IT'S subscriptions have been. received
varying in am0nnt from Twenty-Five
cents to one thousand dollars.
At least a week more will elapse be.
fore the reports will be complete. The
amount of the subscriptions to be made
by several corporations is TO be deter
mined at directors meetings next
week, and replies from about fifty let.
tiers mailed to the other islands and
even TO the mainland are still to be re-
ceived. G.4h. 81 r.r- ..'a
Some few of the solicitors too have
not yet completed their work. When
all the returns are in, the Association is
confident that the entire 1900 needed
will. be in hand. ...N

ing the last two days are $3.50 from
the Alexander and Baldwin Company,

One of the most gratifying features
of the campaign report is the increase

HEAR new
Plan FOR PENSIONS
Referendum viii Be Taken To
Test Opinion Before Legis-
f. lative Action

NEW YORK, January 1.-THE pen
sion plan for teachers drawn up by rep
resentatives of the teachers associa'
tons and Henry Bruere, former city
Chamberlain, was announced yesterday
to the High School Teachers Associa-
ton in meeting az the High School of
Commerce. The plan will be supported
by most Of the teachers, II is believed,
but to make thisicertain referendum
among the teaehers will be taken. If
the teachers approve IL an attempt will
be made to have the Legislature pass
the laws necessary to put the plan into
effect.
Under the new plan the pension fund
would be conducted under the supervi'
sion of the State insurance department.
Teachers would be eligible for retire.
ment at the age Of sixty-f five years, or
after thirtylhve years Of service with.
out regard to age, or at the end of ten
years on the ground Of physical or men
tai disability.
Teachers are not to be forced to con,
tribute more than three per cent OF
their salary, but they may contribute
more If they want TO, in which case
their pensions would be larger. The
defeated pension plan required the
teachers to pay eight per cent of their
salaries into the pension fund.
The city, under the new plan, win
provide one fourth of the pension to the
pensioners and the teachers will pay
one-fourth. In addition, the city will
pay into the fund one-fourth of the
average salary for the past ten years
and ono thirty fifth Of the average sal.
airy for each year previous to sePtem.
Der, 1917. .
Upon resignation or dismissal or
upon teachers death the fund will re-
turn TO him OF to his. estate the full
amount he has paid into the fund, with
interest at six per cent.
