LAHAINA NOTES.

Last Tuesday John Richardson's 5
boys left two horses attached to II
brake, fastened in front of the Billiard
saloon in Lahaina. Three young men
came along and jumped into the
brake and started off for drive. The
horses took fright and ran away and
broke the pole. The young men now
have less money in their pockets, and
are sadder and wiser.
Deputy Sheriff Omstead has been III!

TEACHERS OF THE GARDEN
ISLAND At LIHUE.
Valuable Papers and Essays on School
ness, School Museums and English.

The Kauai Teachers Association
had Il very successful and enthusiastic
meeting at Lihue school house on last
Thursday and + riday, the 1th and sth
of October. There was IA very tull at
tendance, thirty-one in all. After
the reading of the minutes II. Il. Aus
tin intimated that he resigned the Of
flee of secretary. j. b. Alexander. Lii
hue, was appointed to act in his stead
Conversation Lessons" by j. c. Da-
Wis, of Hanalei, showed his method of
following out the new course of stu
dy by having the pupils describe ac-
tions taking place in the school room
j. X. Burkett followed with an inter
esting paper on School Museums. and
how to prepare and preserve speci-
mems. He exhibited selection from
his own museum. which was examined
carefully and admired by the mem.
bers.
a very methodical paper was read
by Miss Thronas. Lihue, on Language.
in which she emphasized the necessity
| of keeping good models ever before
| the pupils.
On Friday morning j. ii. Godfrey
read paper on Numbers. wherein
| from his experience he came to the
! conclusion that time should be devot-
ed to the concrete exposition of num-
bers, and that the abstract should be
| ignored.
Miss Sharp's paper on Supplemental
ry Work was a careful and evidently
resourceful treatment of the subject
| of busy work. Miss Joehnke in Miss
Sharp's absence, very kindly read the
| paper.
H. II. Brodie of Hanapepe present
| ed his scheme for the improvement of
playground English" In it he hop
| ed by means of competitive criticism
to make the children aware of errors,
| and therefore be more careful of their
| speech. The paper led to a good deal
of discussion. Several defects were
pointed out by the teachers who had
studied the subject in their own school
! yards. The essayist admitted the de
| fects, but hoped to improve his plan.
Miss Bush of Kilauea read IA very
thoughtful paper on Truthfulness,
and diverse remarks were made by the
members on the treatment of this diff
ficult subject.
j. +. Scott of Waimea read a very
spirited paper on School Management
and John b. Freittas gave an account
of his use of illustration in teaching
and of Vertical Writing.
On the subject of Devices, II. II. Bro
die showed his way of funding noon
on the playground and exhibited GER
tain, wind and weather charts made
by the pupils.
The following officials were elected
for the next year: President, j.. G.
Davis; first vice president. Miss
Smith; second vice president. Mrs. J
II. Godfrey; secretary and treasurer
j. +. Scott.
The Association was glad to notice
in attendance several ladies and gen.
tlement of the district who are inter
ested in education.
On the whole this has been one ot
the Associations most instructive
meetings and the papers were of such
kind as to call forth very general
discussion.

Secretary and Treasurer William C.
Parke of the Hawaiian Rowing Asso-
ciatior today issues financial report
of the Regatta committee receipts.
The statement shows that there is
no money in the Regatta Days fes-
tivities for the boat clubs. While
there was sufficient funds to cover the
expenses arising from prizes and the
committees incidentals. it did not
cover the training and open house ex-
penses.
\ balance of $62 left over from last
year was added to the sum of $100S.5C
which was collected from the mer-
chants by Thomas j. King, Captain
Campbell and James Boyd. making a
total of Sl07O.50.
In the disbursements the principal
item was the prizes awarded in cash
and trophies amounting to $685. the
committees expense was $2S3.25, and
an allowance of S125 to the Healani
and Myrtle clubs for keeping open
house, made total of S963.2j. This
left balance of S107.25.
At meeting of the Association held
on September 25, the question was
brought up as to the disposal of this
balance. Some members were in ia
vor of carrying it forward to next
years celebration, as the money was
subscribed for that purpose; others
that it should be equally divided
among the three clubs to help pay the
training expenses. After consulting
the principal subscribers to the fund
and finding that they had no obiec-
ton to the Association taking such n
course, the balance was equally divid
ed among the clubs. each receiving
the sum of $3575
While the exact amount of money
it cost the Myrtle oarsmen to train
for the races is not known yet, it is
quite probable that it will amount in
round figures to $3.50. 1t cost the
same club 1925 to keep open house on
Regatta Day, making total of $4s5.
The Ileilani clubs expenses are not
far behind this. while the Leiani boys
have contracted a debt in the neigh
borhood of $3.50. This club escaped
open house expenses.
If each of the three chtlas receives
$50 as its share from the union boat
club dance in Independence park
about a fortnight ago. they will be
very lucky. 1t is more probable that
the amount they will receive will be
nearer S25. The total receipts were
near $500 while the expenses amount
ed to 5000.
All in all. about one-third of the
training expenses and open house eN-
penses of the clubs will come from
outside sources.
The expenses this year were heav-
| Ter by $500 than last. There were a
good many more races too.

to pay pretty fair dividend

CHINESE FOUND HANGING IN 4
DESERTED BARN.
Looks Like Suicide-Identity of .he
Unfortunate Unknown-A Very
Puzzling Case.

Considerable excitement was occa-
stoned along the Waikiki beach This
morning by the discovery of the LoJy
of a Chinese hanging in an old barn
near w. G. Irwin's place. The body
was first seen by S. k. Jordan, who at
once telephoned to the Marshal's Ct
flee, and Captain Hookano was dis
patched to the place.
The body is that of Celestial about
45 years old, dressed in plain working
clothing, such as is usually worn hy
common laborers. The man was very
thin and emaciated. To all appear
ances he had been very i'll. Up TO
press time his identity has not been
| discovered, although the body las
been viewed by large number or
Chinese. A Chinese living in the Vi
cinity of the barn where the body was
found says that he saw the man walk
ing in the road yesterday afternoon,
about 80 o'clock.
Although the case looks like one Ct
plain suicide, there are some features
of it that make an official investigu-
! ton absolutely necessary. In the
first place some sixty Chinese in he
neighborhood who have viewed the
body deny any knowledge of the iden-
tity of the man. 1t would seem very
strange for the man to go into an en-
tirely strange neighborhood to take
his own life. The condition in which
the body was found will also bear a
close inquiry.
! When Captain Hookano arrived at
| the barn he found the body hanging
from beam, with the feet but few
inches from the floor. Some scantling
on the floor seemed to indicate that
the Chinese had piled it up, stood on
top of the pile, fastened the rope
around his neck and then kicked
away the improvised scaffolding, leav-
ing his body suspended in mid-air,
with his feet almost touching the floor
of the barn. The knees were bent, as
if the fellow, in his determination to
end his life, had drawn them up for
fear they would touch the floor.
The body was cut down and brought
to town. About sixty Chinese resid-
ing in the vicinity viewed the body.
but none of them could or would
identify it. Deputy Marshal Hitch
cock will hold an inquest this after
noon.
The theory is advanced that the
Chinese was sick and Respondent and
had wandered out TO the beach to end
his miserable existence in a lonely
place.
The affair caused great excitement
along the beach.

NEW PASTIAlE.
Bicycle Races to Commence Next Sat
urday.

The grand opening of Cyclomere
park will take place at 2 o'clock Sat
urday afternoon. The last few weeks
have Witnessed hard training on the
part of the racing men of Honolulu.
and the faithful work done nsures
the admirers of cycling some exciting
races.
The Moana, due Thursday. should
bring four, and perhaps five, crack ra-
cling men, whose reputation as fast
riders cannot be questioned. These
men will come under contract to
compete in the races with the riders
here and to establish Hawaiian rec
ords which will rank favorably with
the American. Australian and British
records. 1t is only on account of the
fact that the racing season is over In
the States that these men could be
engaged to come, but if the public
take sufficient interest in the races TO
patronize them the management will,
from time to time, introduce the very
best talent obtainable and guarantee
good. honest amusement.
In the last three weeks the Honolu-
lu boys have been doing some faithful
work training and all are in the pink
of condition.
Twentythree large arc lights OF
1000 candle power each, have been sl
placed around the track and grand
stand by the Hawaiian Electric Light
Company that the park will be as
light as day.
w. A. Wall has personally supervis.
ed the construction of the track
from plans of the latest and most uT
to date ideas, and from scientific
point it is perfect.
Cyclomere is patterned after the
famous Manhattan Beach track, at the
well known summer resort.
The convenience of the public has
been foremost in the minds of the
promoters, Messrs. Desky and Wee
don, but to avoid accident it has beer
deemed advisable to caution those
who attend in their private conveyan
ces against leaving their teams witt
any but Trustworthy attendants.
| Wall, Nichols Company have seats
on sale for the benefit of those wht
prefer to purchase them ahead o
| time.

ANOTHER SCHEDULE MADE.

The third, and very likely the last,
schedule of games for the foot ball
season, has just been completed.
When the first schedule was made
the Regiment, St. Louis and Town
teams were members of the League.
Then the Punahous came in, necessi-
tating another arrangement. The
dropping out of the st. Louis boys
then caused Encouragement.
There will be but three regular
games. The season will be formally
opened on November with the Regi-
ment and Punahous competing for the
honors. The losers of this match will
play the Town team on November 10.
The final game determining the cham
pionship is scheduled for Thanksgiv-
ing day. The winners of the game TO
be played on November 9th and 18th
will try conclusions.
The champions will issue chal-
lenge to the Baltimore officers in De-
