ICICLES ON
THE TALENT
AT OAKLAND
Five Sharp Favorites Showed
h-Owner and Rider Of
Loving Cup Suspended.

The shady condition OF the atmosphere
froze up five OF the six favorites at Cak-
land yesterday and they are no doubt
still undergoing the thawing cut process.
1t was a most disastrous running for the
talent and the majority OF the bookmak-
ers suffered from expansion OF the bank
roll, turf disease attended by no Ill after
effects.
Faversham, in the second, was the
first cinchy favorite to go by the board.
The ring held the black horse an IL 10 %
chance and after he had been jostled by
Bullman, on Stuttgart, opposite the pad
dock, ran unplaced. "Iceman" Spencer
made quiet sneak along the rail with
Whaleback. getting the decision from
Stuttgart by a neck. The rough house
tactics Of pullman were not appreciat ted
by the stand and his mount was disqual-
flied. which gave Anchored second and
the favorite third place.
Later on, in the fifth event, this was
followed by the downfall of Loving Cup,
another pipe" Four TO five was consid-
cred a good price by the smart ones. Dis
playing an Indifferent turn OF speed the
Eastern mare finished third. February,

Saturday was wedding day within
the precincts Of st. Andrews Cathedral.
In the morning at II o'clock, the Rev.
Kong Yin Tet, pastor Of the Chinese
Episcopal Church, was united in mar
riage to Miss Ching Nget Chin, who
recently arrived from China. The
Bishop of Honolulu performed the GER
emory in the presence of very large
Chinese congregation.
In the evening, at 1880 o'clock,

HIGH PROJECTILE VELOCITY.

A velocity of 5000 feet per second
was recently recorded in the late tests
at Indian Head of the new 45-caliber
six-inch United States naval gun
This is claimed to be the best record
made by a gun of this class. The
Krupp 15-cm (5.S7-inch) and the 10
en- (6.3-inch) use projectiies weighing
49, and 11O.2 pounds respectively. but
the highest muzzle velocity recorded
for these is 1886 feet seconds. These
guns are so calibers long. The Krupp
2l-cm (S24-inch uses projectile
weighing 23S.1 pounds, and is credited
with muzzle velocity OF 1922 feet Sec
onds; and the same velocity has been
obtained with Krupp 24-cm (9.45-
inch) gun, with projectile weighing
1927 pounds. The nearest French
gun in type is the Schneider-Canet
quick-fire, 5.9l-inch caliber, using a
projectile weighing $50 pounds. With
lengths OF As, SO and 60 calibers this
gun shows velocities OF 1925, 2756 and
1858 feet seconds respectively. The
6O-caliber length is an experiment,
and the 45-caliber is the one to be
compared with the American gun.
The six-inch Elswick guns OF 50-cali-
Der claim a velocity OF 2940 feet sec
onds, but the British naval authorities
say that the velocity is not desirable,
owing to the great wear on the gun.
The American full tests are not made
public; but 1t is claimed that the re-
suits were due to new smokeless
powder recently adopted by this Gov
eminent.

AN APT REPLY.
(Boston Globe.)

The story is told by the historian,
Sharon Turner, of an Italian Prince in
the middle ages who journeyed in gilt
ter and pomp to visit homely and
isolated Prince in the north of Ger
many. As the two Princes stood upon
a lofty hill one day. the Italian ven
tured to ask, as he surveyed the land
scape: where are your churches,
prisons and almshouses, Prince?
From a similar elevation in my prin-
cipality you could count score OF
churches"
The rude German hesitated mo-
ment and then said; Your Highness,
as for prisons, we need none. since
every man among us respects his
neighbours rights and property Aims

Big White Cruiser and Admiral
OF for Home.

(From Mondays Advertiser.)
The United States cruiser Philadel-
phia weighed anchor in naval row at
Z o'clock on Sunday morning, and two
hours later the smoke Of that familiar
man-o'-war had disappeared around
Diamond Head. All day Saturday the
Philadelphia was cleaning up after the
coaling, which hau begrimed her
decks for the past week, and upon her
departure was as neat and clean above
board as any of the fleet. The bottom
of the "Phillie." however, Is covered
with barnacles and sea slime, and no
steam will be wasted by Admiral
Kautz in trying to make speed to San
Francisco. There she will be put into
dry dock Immediately for thorough
cleaning. The Philadelphia carried
no mail, as the Australia, sailing for
San Francisco tomorrow will arrive In
that port probably day ahead of the
white cruiser.

MAUI, June 9.--The morning OF the
18th a most frightful accident occurred
on Hamakuapoko plantation. causing
the death of one Of the most promis-
ing young men of Makawao district,
and making sad the hearts of the en-
tire community.
While engaged in arranging troll
ley wire which conveyed cane from
the Kaluanui fields to Hamakuap0ko,
the anchor post, piece OF lumber
measuring six inches by six, which
held fast one end Of the wire cable,
pulled up, and with tremendous force
struck Herbert W. Dickey full in the
face. crushing in the bones OF the fore
head and nose. After being conveyed
to his home at Kaluanui three doctors
were summoned, Messrs. MeCOnkey,
Weddick and Raymond, who later In
the day performed an operation which,
however, proved futile. The accident
occurred at 1880 a. M, and death en-
sued at p. m. the same day.
Herbert w. Dickey was in charge OF
the Kaluanui section of hamakuapo-
ko plantation. and was the son of Mr..
and Mrs. c. II. Dickey, of Makawao,
and the brother Of Mr.. l.. A. Dickey,
Mr.. c. w. Dickey and Mrs. Harry Wa
terhouse. Jr., of Honolulu. and Of Miss
Belle Dickey. who is at present at
school in Oakland.
Mr.. Dickey was educated at Chicago
University, and was but "a years OF
age. Physically and mentally he was
type of noble manhood, giving every
promise of most brilliant future.
The funeral, conducted by DR.. f. g..
Beckwith, will take place today at IL
a. m.
Monday afternoon, the 9Th, Maka-
WAC teachers held their monthly meet
ing in the Makawao schoolhouse. Ex-
ercises in arithmetic and geography
were among the events on the pro-
gram.
On the 10th a fair will be held in
The Lahaina English Church.
1t is stated that DR.. Mouri;z has
sold his lands at Mapulehu, Molokai'
to Kamalo plantation for $3o,ooo.

ent in Hilo taking a course of lessons
in kindergarten teaching.
The Maui Board of Registration,
when stopped by orders fom Honolulu
had registered nearly 300 voters.
The closing exercises Of Maunaolu
Seminary, which will be held On tho

much as the rooms in the old Halea-

fresco entertainment includes drill
by the girls and other interesting
events.
