THE HAWAIIAN JOCKEY
CLUB.
The nth of June Races An
Assured Success.

The meeting of the Hawai-.
ian Jockey Club which took
place on Monday night, was
a grand success in more
than one way. 1t instilled
new blood into the association,
and the enthusiasm displayed
by the new members, proved
that the "hard" times are taking
q backseat, and that Honolulu
is going back into its former
golden days. The annual races
which win take place on the
glorious 18th of June, will this
/ year surpass anything expert
enced here. There will be more
horses, more owners and more
first.class jockeys than have ever
met on the track in the park. AS
the programme is not published
yet and arrangements for the en-
tries have not been completed,
it would be premature to state
with certainty how many herses
will appear on the associ alton s
grand day, and who they are. 1t

is safe though to whisper that
Halstead of Waialua will meet
with two runners, and his neigh
Dor Gay of Mokuleia with three.
Halstead has secured Dodd s
stable and the Mokuleia horses
will shortly be brought to town.
A well-known trainer from Cali
fornia is now having them in
hand at Mokuleia. Bob Ballen-
tyne will probably enter three
horses. Amarino and Silky are
among them, and will be hailed
with pleasure by the Honolulu
public. Duke Spencer who has
not appeared in public at the
last meetings is now being train
ed, and will undoubtedly make
it hot for his competitors. Colo
mel Cornwell will have three or
possibly four horses in readiness.
1t is rumored that he expects
race. horse and a jockey in the
Australia. If the rumor is cor
rect the race for the Rosita Chal-
lenge Cup will be contested hot
ter than ever. Besides these
there are number of trotters to
be entered and all now in train
ing, and it is safe to say that the
races will be attended by an
audience larger than ever. Six
teen new members were admitted
at the annual meeting, and the
following officers were elected:
H. A. Widemann, president; j.
A. Cummins, vice-pre sident; j.
G. Spencer, treasurer; s. G.. Will
