REMARKABLE HISTORY OF OLD
JOE DAKE.
Having Lived Twice His Allotted Time,
He Still Shows Great Speed at the
Last.

The end of Joe Dake, Capt. Clunie's
famous old horse, is fast approaching.
DR.. Rowat had done all in his power
to save the faithful animal, but the
ravages of old age can not be repaired
and the chances are that Joe Dake's
sufferings will be stopped with bull
let.
Joe Dake is looked up by his owner
as the most wonderful horse in his
tory. The average life of horse is
Is wears but Joe Dake has already
passed his saith mile post, and, until
few months ago, has always served
his master faithfully. Some idea of
Joe's wonderful vitality can be gained
from the fact that on his 3ith birth
day Capt. Clunie willingly posted
$1,000 to bet that the animal could go
mile in 2:4O or better. Within a
few days after that an $500 race horse
attempted to pass Joe on the Waikiki
road The old horse let out a link or
two, and, despite Capt. Clunie's efforts
to pull him up, beat the high priced
horse to town. without turning hair.
Joe Dake has quite a history. He
was foaled in 1863, in band of horses
crossing the plains to San Francisco,
led by the famous stallion Mcclellan.
Peter Dean of San Francisco bought
the colt for $250O, and owned and
drove him for fifteen years, during
which time he was never on race
track. Mr.. Dean refused an offer of
$4,000 for the animal at the age of
years.
In 1884, when Joe was 81 years old,
he was sold down here to a man by
the name of Porter, who disposed of
him to Capt. Clunie for considera-
tion of $625. At that time he had the
gait and bearing OF a colt. Can
Clunie put him on the track. and wit
in the next year won six speedy races.
the age of 25, he went his fifth mile
heat in a race in 2:34.
Capt. Clunie has sold old Joe twice.
but each time bought him back On
the last occasion he found Joe in the
hands Of a Chinese hack driver, and,
| apparently on his last legs. Out OF
pity the Captain paid him $44 for the
poor animal and took him home. That
was three years ago. Within fort
night Joe was himself again. and
Capt. Clunie has driven him for a
stylish road horse ever since, until his
recent illness.

t,e auspices of Minister Cooper did

t,rly. Some Of the prominent points
lvanced in correspondence by the
okio Government were either mca-

GOVERNMENT POSPONES HOTEL
SALE ONE MONTH
There Are No Prospective Buyers
Macfarlane Brothers and George
Lycurgus Want to Secure a Lease.

The President and his Cabinet con-
sidered the advisability of postponing
the public auction sale of the Ha-
waian Hotel another month, at the
regular session this morning
The sale is advertised to take place
on Wednesday noon. As yet no bid
ders have manifested themselves and
the Government is anxious TO give all
the time possible to those parties who
may contemplate the purchase of the
property.
The matter was turned over TO the
Minister of the Interior aud that Off
cial has decided to postpone the sale
for one month.
1t is known that should the sale he
abandoned and the premises again
leased. that at least two parties will
strive to secure the lease. They are
the Macfarlane brothers, the present
lessees, and George Lycurgus, who is
now managing Sans Souci at Waikiki.
The terms of the lease are not alto
gether satisfactory to prospective bid
ders. The Government is willing to
lease its property for a term of thirty
years at a rental of at least $4,000 or
more. The lessee is also obliged to
erect building to cost not less than
$4,000 within four years time. These
provisions require an outlay of $170,-
600 within the thirty years. The in
terest on the $4,000 during the life Of
the lease at 6 per cent would amount
to 100000, making total of $26O.OOO
which would practically be expended
during the thirty years.
Those who have given the matter
much attention say that it would be a
much better financial proposition 10
purchase the property outright tha6
to lease it.

4 SENSATIONAL STORY.
Mexico Alarmed About Concessions
Asked for japanese Colonists.

EL PASO, Ten. June 30.-A sensa-
tional statement is contained in pri-
vate letter from the City of Mexico,
written by an officer known to be
close confidant of Gen. DiaZ.
1t is to the effect that japanese
Government commissioner recently
visited Mexico for the ostensible pur-
pose of securing colonization rights,
which, had they been granted, would
have resulted in a great influx of Jap
anese into two of the eastern states
which are regarded as the richest in
natural resources in the Republic. The
rights asked for were so startlingly
broad and extensive that the scheme
was viewed with much suspicion, and
was believed to have for its ultimate
purpose an attempt to conquer the
States on some slight preteXt that
might arise.
| The officer says the Mexican EXecu-
tive and Cabinet are greatly interest
IN Watcnlng the outcome OF tne IA
waian controversy between Japan ard
the great Republic.
They believe the slightest delay on
the part of the United States will re-
suit in the Japanese gaining posses
sion of the islands. They think it will
be brought about by an insurrection
of Japanese now on the islands, with
the assistance of strong japanese
naval demonstration, which the United
States would be unable to prevent be-
cause of its weak naval strength in
Pacific waters. The Japanese were
regarded as bold, smart, and extreme
ly visionary, and afflicted with a
dream for Empire and greatness.

ARE LOATH TO ACCEPT.
japanese and Chinese viii Not Be
come Reconciled to Christianity.

Before large congregation of Ha-
waiians in Kawaiahao Church yester-
day morning, Senator Henry Water
house spoke most Interestingly of
Japan and China.
He told the natives of the peculiari-
ties of the Japanese, and spoke more
particularly of these little brown peo-
pie in their worship.
The Senator found the Japanese to
be exceedingly polite and shrewd.
They were in constant pursuit of
money. Even those of the race who
are disabled are given to work. The
blind are trained to administer the
"lomi-lomi" to the traveller who is
fatigued after a journey.
Tn speaking of his observations in
China Senator Waterhouse stated that
these people were as slow in accepting
Christianity as were the Japanese.
Delegate D. L. Naone to the Young
Peoples Christian Endeavor conven-
ton, occupied the pulpit in the same
church last evening. He related a
number of incidents that occurred at
the big convention.
