An Urban Panorama

The residence districts of the city are
very much hidden from the sea by the
exuberance of the foliage. You come round
Diamond Head in the steamer, and open
the city five miles away. with It's beautiful
suburb of Waikiki Wye-kee-kee) lying
along a near beach beyond the head. with
it's splendid groves of lofty coco palms.
Drawing near the harbor. there appears a
central unattractive mass of business edi-
fees, mostly brick, covering, say, nun
dred acres. The rest of the town. stretch
ing two miles each way. Is buried IN 1ol-
iage. with glimpses OF mansions ana COT,
tages mere and there between. Just behind
the center of the town rise the rugged but
tresses of the dark brown Punch Bowl
crater up whose lower flankS climb some
hundreds of neat white cottages, inhabited
by Portuguese laborers, and adorned with
little gardens Of grape vines and hg trees
on the steep hillsides. These are less than
a mile from the wharves. Behind them
tower the green buttresses of the crater:
You can drive up a winding road behind
the hill, coming Out on a summit exactly
500 feet above the sea. from which is a
splendid panoramic view of Honolulu seen
beneath you as from Eiffel tower built
by nature in the heart of the city.
The aigarobas and the lantana thickets
are slowly climbing the sides of Punch
Bowl, and threaten to clothe their stalwart
nakedness with foliage like ivy an old
castle wall. One hardly knows whether the
grand buttresSeS are not best as they now
are unadorned. On the summit is cup
like area of over hundred acres, with
the heights of the crater rim towering
around, hiding you from the outer world in
a close solitude though in the heart of the
city This is a park set apart by nature,
where human dwellings, will not intrude,
though some day human art will greatly
beaut!fy 1t.
Viewing the city again from the sea, there
stand though much among trees, yet some
hat conspicuous, at each end of the town. a

CONVENTION OF 80.
ommitteemen Tell What washin:

Committeeman Tell What washing
ton VIII Gain BY 1t.
The services at 1ke First Congregational
Church last evening were under the aus
pices of the District Eudeavorers and the
large congregation present listened atten-
lively to three addresses by members of the
committee OF 'o6 on What Washington
viii gain by the Christian Endeavor Con-
vention," which VIII be held in this city
next year.
The pastor, C1v. S. n. Newman, made
a few Introductory remarks.
Mr.. john b. Sleman, jr., was the first of
the committee heard from aud he spoke of
the convention in regard TO its relation to
the press. He said that without the aid OF
the press this great convention would be
looked upon as merely local affair He
spoke very highly Of the Washington papers,
in fact, he considered them as good as any
published in the land.
On the financial side OF the question
Mr.. Walter n. weston delivered a short
address. He explained that the Endeav-
orers would pay theirown personaIexp expenses,
but $50 ,00OO was required for the
auditorium, decorations and other necessary
outlay. This money is expected to come
from the hundreds of Washington Christian
EndeaTorers. church contributions and
from the business men of the city. Ten
tlpusand dollars is promised by the business
men alone.
AIR. W. II. H Smith, chairman OF the
committee of '96, spoke of the convention
from a spiritual standpoint. He explained
the principles OF the Christian Endeavorers
in educating the people for Christ. He
said that the fact of the devotion and love
of God was the source out of which all other
principles grew. He also spoke OF the
purpose OF these workers, their fellowship
and their interest in their work.

To say that the local fans are sore over
the three straight lost to Boston is TO put
it very mildly. They are simply wild.
True, every one in this city who saw
the beaneaters play ball put them down
as pennant winners. But the home showing
of the Senators led them TO believe that
Manager Schmelz's aggregation had a
fighting chance with the best of them.
After the first game, which was lost by
Abbey's ineXcusable muffs, the rooters
did not feel particularly blue, as they don't
expect the boys TO win all the time, but when
another, and still third had gone the way
of the first, they then commenced to kick.
The fielding has been OF the minor
league standard and Nicholson showed
that he has not yet got rid OF his swaddling
clothes. His playing seen in the nine
games demonstrates that he is an in and
outer, and not fast enough for the Senators.
He may improve, but unless he does Man
ager SchmelZ should see the necessity of
recalling last seasons shortstop, Schie-
beck, and send Nicholson away.
Nicholson was Eot the only man, how
ever, who played yellow ball. That
young man who covers center field, Abbey,i
has fallen far below his average. He
not only OIQ nOl stop grOunuefS, DuJ ne
made two miserable muffs, both of which
proved serious blunders. II is a recognized
fact that when fielder cannot get under
a fly ball, he does not earn his salary.
To-day the Senators open in Chicago,
and if they can manage to land two out
OF three, they will win much favor, but
il they should lose that many or more, OIL
what howl will be heard from the rooters.
There is one thing pleasing inthis connection,
however. No one heard Manager Schmelz
say what he intends TO do on the Western
trip.
All OF the Eastern teams left for the
Wooley West yesterday aud they each
and every one went with the deteTmina-
ton to bring back many scalp.
Boston and the Senators left together,
the former bound Tor st. Louis and the
latter to take fall out OF the Colts.
If Anson's pets. however put up a game
to day anything like that of yesterday the
Washngtons will have to get up very early
in the morning If they intend To take them
into camp. True, they were only play
ing the much -dcspised Colonels, but the
latter are putting up an article OF bail that
is easily 20 per cent. better than they did
last year.
There is lot OF young blood in the team
and they are coming cut in great shape.
This fact OF itself is an eyesore to the fans
OF Washington, as there is no reason in
the world why we should not have a team
that could play rings around the Louis

Lone Stars at River View.

A large and enthusiastic crowd OF merry
makers went down to River View yesterday
with the members of the Lone Star
Beneficial Association. Sunday was a
beautiful day anywhere round about
Washington. but at this lovely resort the
scene baffled description The dancing
pavilion was crowded all during the day,
while the merry go rounds and caroUsals
were taxed to their utmost capacity.
The Samuel j. Pentz made two trips and
each time carried a large number of persons.
The Lone Stars outings are very popular
and this, their seventeenth annual event,
far surpassed any they have yet given.
The members felt particularly pleased at
their success and this coupled with the
inspiration drawn from the beautiful day
and the music rendered by Chris. Arth,

fender-Footban Rules Not Likely
To BE Changed-Other Notes.

Tho racetrack war between the Haw-
thoTne and ROby tracks is liable TO be very
sweeping in its effect and involve the two
leading turf organizations-The Jockey
Club and Western Turf Congress-in a
complete rupture, if that has not already
been done by the withdrawal of the Turf
Cong ress from the reciprocal policy adopted
year ago by both associations for mutual
benefit
Roby did away with its foreign book yes
terday and declared war on Hawthorne
from a different basis. The officials
viii make application for a Jockey Club
license inorderto weanawav from the Haw-
thorne track some of the eastern horses
that are now there and those that may
come later
Well informed people state, however,
that this move to secure the eastern horses
is not altogether the reason why the Roby
officials did away with their foreign book.
They state that as long as Roby is in good
standing in the Western Turf Congress,
there is no rule prohibiting the eastern
horses from running over the Indiana
track.
The reason for the change as given out is
that the Roby track is fearful that CorTigan,
who is virtually the head and front OF the
Western Turf Congress. will have that or
ganization revoke Roby's license. In
order not to be without a license OF some
kind Roby has taken the initiative in the
matter and declared for the Jockey Club.
The officials hope by this move of abolish
ing the foreign book of their own accord
to win their ways into the good graces
of The Jockey Club and so get license
without delay.
