TESTS OF ENDURANCE

The Bawaiians Win ALI the Heats
at Ropo 1ugging.
The Tug-of War Pavilion had
plenty OF patronage last evening,
and the patrons we're all we'll salts
fed with the arrangements, and the
grand contests of strength and
courageous endurance of the rival
teams.
To keep ones muscles at such a
tension, that they feel as il the
strain must crack them in another
second or two, requires a grit and
nerve that honors the vanquished
almost as much as the victors. In
last nights contests, save that the
victors won, each team showed an
indomitable pluck that proved a
whole sized heart in a healthy and
vigorous frame.
Fortune frowned fercely on the
navy in both contests although the
boys in blue fought bravely In the
contest between the Marion and the
Makani Hoeo, 81 minutes we're con-
sumed before the victory was award
ed t. the Brisk Wind" boys Of
Hawaii nei.
In the pull between the Philadel-
phias aud the Pakakas, the struggle
was simply heroic in its test Of
energy and endurance and for at
least % minutes victory perched
tantallzingly on either side. Up to
this the Philadelphia had bravely
gained their six inches and held it
and even gained up to II, but by
supreme effort the Hawaiian boys
rallied and inch by inch crossed the
rubicon of the CIPHER, burned their
boats behind them aud VIGOROUSLY
rushed to their goal with cheers
that "'aised the roof" As a matter
OF incident the beam Indicator
marked only Aft. 9inch when the
pistol was fred but, it is said, the
floor indicator was true. The an
Choir man OF the Pakakas was over
come for few moments by the ex-
ertion. but in DR.. Murrsy's hands
quickly revived.
Prince Dsvid's Waikiki boys man
aged to CALAMITY hold their own for
no less than 40 minutes against the
stalwart Hawaiian found men aud
deserve credit for their courage.
