Dear Sir: Your letter of February 11th has been received, and the same has been discussed thoroughly by the Maui Athletic Association, also by the members of the Team to go t Honolulu. We regret very much that you have attached so many conditions to our trip, more parti cularly the proviso that in case it rained, you would pay iw $50.00 towards our expense. In discussing your letter, we feel that the trend of all your correspondence points mere ly to the question of making money for the "All Chinese Team." Whi'e our Association would have been pleased to assist you in realizing a nice sum towards your trip to the PEOPLE'S STORE Dressmaking Department NOW OPEN IN CHARGE OF Mrs. Maciiado and Mrs. Hurst COME AND INSPECT NOTICE. The Hoard of License Commis sioners for the County of Maui, will hold a meeting in the public room of the Masonic Temple, atKahului, on Thursday, the sixth day of March, 1913. at 10 a. in. to eon aider the application of The Katipa kalua Wine it Liquor Company for a First-Class License, Wholesale, to sell intoxicating liquors in a two story frame building to be erected on a lot on east side of government road at bottom of Waikina Gulch, I'auwela, Maui, mauka of concrete .bridge crossing the stream, under the provisions of Act 119, Session Laws of 1907.

ViKi!.ii!: lu-el lire n are cordially in ii I'd to at tend V. V. WESCOATT, R. V. M. t.f C. E. COPELAND, Secretary Mainland, wo of course cannot take the money-making part of it into consideration. We believe the least you could have done was to invito us to come to Honolulu to play one-two or three games, as best suited you, and pay merely the legitimate transportation and other expenses. When you begin to pro vide against rain, something over which wo can have absolutely no control, we feel that you desire to evade the invitation, and under the circumstances, we do not think it fair to our boys to accept your pro position. Furthermore when you mention that in case it rained you would pay us only 50.00. there 'would always be the question as to just what showers constitute a rain, or at what periods. In other words there would be plenty of room for questions to rise, and rather than have any argument over the mutter, we have declined your invitation, although we must say with much disappointment, as we had counted on coming down, and had already had good practise. You will remember that when the Chinese Team was invited to Maui there was never any question as to weather conditions or other contin gencies. The Chinese were treated liberally when they were here, just the same as all of the teams that have come to Maui during the past ten years. Just to show you that the Maui spirit is entirely different from that shown by you, we will now extend you an invitation to come to Maui anytime before you leave for the Mainland. All we ask you to do is to notify us well in advance as to the most convenient time. We would like a Saturday game and a Sunday game here. Now, as to ex penses, we will gladly pay your transportation, and other legitimate expenses. Furthermore, we will pay these expenses irrespective of weather conditions- If it rains, hails or snows, or if we are unfort unate enough to be visited with a fierce Kona, you can feel assured that your legitimate expense will be reimbursed by us. Aside from this fact, we believe we can realize enough from the games to make up your expense, even though we have no holiday attraction or an overabundance of tourists and visitors. I would like to hear from you again at first opportunity, and in the meantime remain, Very truly yours, J. GARCIA, Secretary Maui Athletic Ass'n. Princess Ready. All is arranged for the represen tation of Maui during Carnival week. The princess has been chosen, and she ist Mrs. Hannah Morton. The lady has accepted the "job" and now all she needs is a good horse and some Maui roses. This information was all given at the meeting of the Maui Chamber of Commerce on Thursday last. Wilder Sees Dust Storm "I've lived on Maui and know most of the island like a book," declared G. P. Wilder, to a Maui Nnws representative, "but I never remember seeing the Kula district looking so dry and forlorn, as it does now. The crops are in a fearful condition, and it is only in the gulches that one can see any thing at all growing." "The pipe line was the salvation of the Kula people, as regards water for domestic purposes, but there is still needed water for irrigation." Mr. Wilder went on to say that in 1884, when he was living on Maui, there was always a good crop of something or other grow ing in the Kula district, but that there is nothing much now. "I know that the cause of the small rainfall is the wav in which trees have, in the past, been des troyed. The only hope for the future, lies in the planting of trees that will, when mature, attract the rain bearing clouds. Mr. GilTard i is right in his fight for forest re serves, and the planting of trees," concluded the well known Hono lulu man. Mr. Wilder, while at Ulttpalakua Ranch, had an experience that made him think of the "desert route" in the United States. Dust was everywhere, and such a dust. Fine as powder, and the kind that chokes one. It all came about, when the "Kona" of last week came howling across Maui. The wind nicked un the sun-baked dust and drove it into houses and everything else. I There was no stopping the awful stuff and, even with the doors and windows closed, the dust found its way in In clouds. Wet bags and cloths were placed along the sills of the windows, and in the cracks at the bottoms of the doors. That was no use, as the dust found its way in through the smallest cracks. The house party heaved a sigh of relief when the "Kona" blew itself out, and then began the job of getting rid of the dust which, in some places, was fifteen inches deep. The latest is a device to mulct the te'epboiie company- It requires prearrangement between the parties concerned. A man in New York, for instance, wants to communicate quickly with another in Chicago, lie arranges that he will call his firm by name up on the 'long dis tance phone and ask for Jones, Smith or Robinson. Of course, neither Jones, Smith nor Robinson is connected with the Chicago firm, but if a long distance call comes in for either of this men it means a certain thing in accordance with a code that has been arranged pre viously. Since the person asked for was not found, and apparently as the call was in error, no charge is ninde. gwiinirwwwwwitrww wwrw www ltnirotwitrororjg InterIsIand Steam Navigation Co., Ltd.

Fine Musical This Afternoon This afternoon at two-thirty o'clock there will be a musical at the Alexander House, and a line program is to be rendered The affair is to be in charge of Mrs. L. F. Jones and Miss Huffman, and the program is one that will appeal to all lovers of Charles Gounod's well known works. There will be a talk about the famous French composer and two of his best known works "Faust" and "Romeo and Juliet.'' Selec tions from both works will be ren dered, and there should be a treat in store for those present. The musical promises to be some thing unique for Wniluku and all the ladies of the district are invited to attend. Kemps Will Visit Maui As soon as the Honolulu Carvinal week is over, Maui will be paid a visit by Mr. and Mrs. Kemp, the noted travelers and moving picture experts. The Kemps are going to take pictures of a party ascending Haleakala and of other interesting scenes on Maui. The first party to come to Maui under the new schedule of excur sions promoted by the Maui Hotel Company, will include the Kemps. All arrangements are being made for a party to ascend Haleakala and a number of local people will make the trip. Maui is going to have the big gest boost it ever had, and the Kemps will show the "movies" of this island all over the world. FOR SALE. No, 7 REMINGTON TYPEWRITER, in good order and repair.
