Lahaina Gaines End
With Honors Even
on Friday, August lfith, tlm Maui
:;,iskel Hall League gave the public
v hat everyone declared tho best yet.
This is not exaggerated, for tho qual
,! of games put up was number one.
The game between Kahului and SI.
nthony was very close throughout
,:id was won by the former team by
;. score of li to 10. SI. Anthonys
: ave Kahului a hard game, and should
another series be played, as is anti
(ipaled, St. Antohny will make a
neat showing for themselves.
The second game, between Wailuku
Cyninasium and the Cubs, was even
more exciting. Till the last two
minutes of the game Iho score was
1iil0, but the Wailukn Gym team
rallied, and made a total score of II.
These games were certainly worth
while. A while heat of excitement
prevailed and the basket ball fans
were busy telling the boys whal lo
do throughout.
Big Battle Tonight
The next game will be played at
the Kahului Community House this
evening. The public is inviled to al
ii'tul. The Kahului and Gymnasium
teams are now the cup contenders
and a hard battle is expected be
tween there two teams at the coming
meet.

Governor Makes Rules
In the advertising section of this
ii.me is a "by authority" publication
of the new rules and regulations just
approved by the Governor for the reg
ulation of such traffic in liquor as is
still permitted under the law. The
same boards of license commission
ers of the several counties are pre
set ed.
Here on Maui the commission con
sists of T. P. Lyons, D. C. Lindsay,
I) H. Ciise, C. I). Uifkin, and V. F.
Kaae. An informal meeting or two
of the members has been held but no
ciefinite action taken as yet.
Mav Have No Licensee Here
It is possible that the board will
not license any person on Maui to
sell the liquor needed here for medi
Inal. scientific, mechanical, or sacra
mental purposes, but will have such
upplies ordered from Honolulu as
neeile'1. 1 no ooara will appoint mi
insnectnr to nnnrove prescriptions of
doctors, o. k. orders of physicians ana
others entitled to have liquors, and
ihrck up the records of all such from
time to time.
Hut. this job, the commissioners be
lieve, will be a simple one. They do
not anticipate that there will be much
liquor dispensed on Maui for all pur
poses permitted, and this through a
very limited number of channels. o
one nas as yet Deen seiecieu lur wik
position of inspector, and there will
probably be no great race for the
job since the board thinks it will be
in nature of a sinecure ana as sucn
call for but a nominal salary. It is
even talked of not appointing an out
ider for the job, but having the
duties of inspector handled by one of
the members.
End Of The Demon Peaceful
There was little ceremony on Maui
to mark the passing of Demon Rum
The few liquor dealers still in bus!
ness had practically sold out their
stocks a day or two before, and there
was little booze available for the
wake had there been any such inclina
tion.
' The several hotels which had bars
are all preparing to install ice cream
and soft drink departments, and the
proprietors appear to all be cheerful
over the prospects. In fact they seem
to feel a sense of relief as though the
burden of an annoying and uncertain
responsibility had been lifted from
their shoulders.

' : T.-i"vM:in nor Wailuku be

plav another game this coming Sun
day at the Wailuku grounds. The
proceeds again are to be given to the
Hed Cross. The collection taken at
Lahaina amounted to $31.00.
The coining games should have a
large attendance.
Lahaina certainly did well last
Sunday in way of patronage, a very
large crowd seeing the games on the
new diamond that was recently filled
in opposite the Armory.
The chief drawback was the lack of
bleachers or seats of any kind.

"The Widow's Might"
Clever Julian Eltinge, the well
known Paramount, feminine imper
sonator, makes a very fascinating
widow indeed in his newest produc
tion, "The Widow's Might." As to
his gowns they are the very most
gorgeous and fashionable of that
well-dressed actor's feminine collec
tion. The Ftory begins with Dick Tavisli,
a young city chap, deciding to move
out West and establish himself as a
cow-puncher, because he has heard
that t hi-re Is money in cows.
It is as a rancher that he meets
and learns to appreciate Hed, Cob
and Pete, three fellow-ranchers. And
it is one of them, lied, who accom
panies Dick to Coronallo, the fashion
able resort when they find they are
being robbed of their money by Hor
ace'llaminer, a wealthy but unprinci
pled broker.
As it happens, Dick is more than
glad to get to Coronalto, for he has
leariW that pretty Irene Stuart, with
whose pictured face he has oddly fall
en in love during the long lonely
watches at the ranch, is there also,
and slopping at the same hotel as
Tinimer, the man they have come to
see.
How they viceeert in getting back
the deed to their land, and how Dick
finally marries Irene after numerous
excruciatingly humorous aaventures,
in which c baby figures prominently,
; Cil.'i in a charming manner; anil
irector William C. de Mille has
made "The Widow's Might" one of
h most popular of the clever star
enl ire repertoire.

,1. P. Lorknoy, considered by critics
o be one of the bo".t character men
on ihe screen, and Milton Ross
"Flare-Up Sal" is a typical Western
picture, and it has been given a regu
lar wild and woolly production by
Director Neil. He has taken his com
pany into giant redwood section of
California for the exterior scenes, and
the interior scenes including the
dance hall and gambling scenes are
marvels for their exactness in dupli
'ting similar scenes during the days
of the gold rush to California. Miss
Dalton has the title-role. The Red
Rider, a notorious outlaw, hears of
her. and his curiosity gets the better
of him, so be arranged himself in the
garb of a minister, and visits the
town and meets Sal. He lias impris
cued the minister on his way to take
charge of the parish of the mining
town, nnd he is welcomed as the new
minister. Sal plans to run him out

instead, and they both leave and are

outline of the story. There is action

His Awed Listeners
An English scientist was in the
habit of taking hunting trips in the
north of Scotland. Here, when night
came upon them, and he and his
guides were sitting around their camp,
he would become very communicative
on scientific marvels, even narrating
to his seemingly awed listeners things
'hat he never confided to lis col
leagues at home.
One night the distinguished Eng
lishman paused in his talk, and, turn
ing, to one of his guides, asked curi
ously:
'Sandy, what is it that you and your
companions keep taking out oi your
pockets and eating while I'm telling
you these things?"
'Salt," replied Sandy calmly; "a
grain at a time."
