PREPARING FOR THE RACES On
TUE FOURTH.
Ball at Spreckclsville Want an EN-
cursion-Loyal Men of Maui stand
by President Dole.

WMLuKU, June 23.-T The Claudine
on wednesday last brought string of
race horses from Honolulu, with which
their owners expect to gather fresh
laurels and perhaps sundry dollars at
the coming Kahului races. Dickey
Davis arrived here with Nevada and
Bert Lee, and Amarino, Queen H., Sarah
II. and Lolokalani were broul Int by c.
Leonard, connected with the Lahaina
Stables.
This years meeting of the Maui Rae
ing Association promises to be an excit.
ing one; all the races advertised have
been flied, and, with the exception of
Nevada and Bert Lee, none but Maui
horses have been entered. Owners of
Honolulu thorough-bre stock seem to
be unwilling TO compete at the Mani
races. Colonel Cornwell's Lord Brock
will still stand undefeated for the
reason that his owner forgot to enter
him,
The Corinthan race is exciting con-
siderable interest. Five horses have been
entered to be ridden by members OF the
association, and as Billy Cornwall has
entered his well-known racer and name
sake Billy c., he will undoubtedly ride
him to victory himself. This event
alone should insure packed grand
stand.
There will be Fourth Of July ball given
at Spreckelsville on the evening OF the
4th, under the auspices OF the Maui
Racing Association, the trains of the ka-
hului Il. r. Co. will convey the guests to
and from the ball.
1t is to be greatly hoped that one of
the steamship companies will run a
steamer to Kahului to return to Homo
lulu on the morning of the 9th. This
would certainly insure the attendance at
our races OF Il great number OF Honolulu
men who could not be spared by their
employers until the arrival OF the W. G..
Hall. We are informed by Honolulu
gentleman that at least Il hundred tick
cts could be sold, and $500 should GER
tainlv be sufficient inducement to run an
excursion boat. A list might be taken
around to insure sale of sufficient
number of excursion tickets beforehand.
Mauites will certainly take good care
of their Honolulu friends and if they
are endowed with good judgment and
guessing qualities they may further be
able to cut down their expenses con-
siderably.
Delegates II. p. Baldwin, j. W. Ka
lua and W. F. Pogue arrived by the
Kinau last night and returned to Homo
lulu to-day. We are informed that the
Hawaiian Republic will be declared on
the Fourth. A more appropriate day
could certainly not be chosen.
The Holomud in its issue OF the 2lst
inst, eloquently "presumes that then
Mr.. Dole will follow old customs and
make triumphant tour through his
empire and visit Maui and Hawaii, etc"
We sincerely trust that the HOlOmud'S
pTcSuinpll may Dc lulliilSh' IlNShh'lb
Dole is assured of cordial welcome on
Maui among loyal men, and we have
scores of them, who will be glad to
shake the hand OF the man who has so
noby led us out of the tolls of heathern
Monarchy into the road OF representa-
tive government pointing straight for
Annexation.
1t is reported that Commissioner II.
Dickinson has given his decision in the
water rights controversy of Pioneer
Hill Co. VS.. Makalua ct al. The de-
cision is essentially in favor of plaintiffs.
DR.. Geo. Herbert returned from Hon
olulu per Kinau last evening accom-
panied by DIR. Armtage. Dr. Herbert
intends to leave this district before long
to build up a practice in Honolulu. He
has been Government ply stefan and
physician at Malulani hospital for the
past six years, and has, through his
excellent qualities and careful attention
to his profession won the esteem of
everyone and gained an excellent
reputation His many friends here
will greatly miss the doctor and will at
all times be pleased to hear of his future
success.
