JUST HOW WE LOST THE RACE.

I'VE were unfortunate in going to
leeward instead of to windward. We
got out of sight of land during Satur-
day night. When we did strike in
toward land it was at Lanai where
We encountered a dead calm which
pretty nearly drifted us into the rocks
around the island. Had it not been
for these two features of the race, we
feel assured that the result would
have been entirely different. We kept
well in sight of each other until dark
OF Saturday night. On the way home
we were right along together. al
though the Dewey took the lead.
When we found ourselves In the calm
some one suggested that we tie up
on the equator and take 1t easy. We
did that to a certain extent, but the
next race won't have any equator in
1t at all. We are satisfied that another
race will be more interesting to both
sides at the finish"

JUST HOW WE WON THE RACE.

at was a fine race-only the Paloma
was too slow. After dark Saturday
night we couldn't find her. We thought
she had gotten so far behind us that
she had dropped out of sight. That
was partly true as we found when
we came together at Lahaina. We
were a little over 20 hours from Ho-
polulu to Lahaina, beating the Gladys
time Is minutes. We struck a clam
but passed through it all right. 1 am
sorry to say the Paloma got caught in
it for sometime and had splendid OPP
portunity to study the geological for
nation of the Island of Lanai. OF
course we attribute our time ard gen.
eral results of the race to good sea-
manship. Did you see the way we
came down the channel and rounded
the buoy? We showed them a clean
pair of heels all the way into the
mornings. / am ready for another race
and believe that the next one will be
closer. The entire trip was forty-eight
hours ofsyachting sport that have been
a pleasure to US ALL"

FORGET NOT THE FLAG.

I'm the exultation Of the hour let us
not forget the need of homage to the
flag that Is now floating serenely and
proudly ever this historic building by
our side-the capitol Of the Territory of
Hawaii. That flag has ever been the
symbol of liberty and equality; that
flag that has swept victorious in many
climes. and whose beautiful folds have
never dropped in ignominy of defeat:
that flag which is the heaven-born en-
sign of our own beloved country-God's
chosen land. May we all be ever loyal,
firm and true to that flag no matter
what foes may assail or what issues
arise.
Even as the sturdy yeomen of the
land have fought the battles of the
people-the men who bore the arms
that made the revolution blessed his
tory; who in the struggle of 1872 COM
PEELED the confirmation and recognition
OF the rights gained by the revolution;
who settled the question of the civiliZa-
ton of the Pacific Coast by the war of
1915; who by the conquest of the rebel
lion, struck the shackles of slavery
from five millions of backs, and estab-
iished unalterably the principle that
the United States compose an inde-
structible union; who rushed forth to
battle and so quickly avenged the per-
fidious insults of Spain and drove her
uepdSilS nag loreNeF -lroHi lHe Tdcilic
ocean and from the western shores of
the Atlantic ocean-even yet VIII the
yeomen of our land be ever ready to
repel assault or avenge insult; ever
ready to answer the call to arms, the
only condition being that the call shall
come from authority, determined as
Americans to proudly stand upon that
immortal sentiment offered by an early
hero, the unconquerable Decatur, Our
country! May she always be right; but,
right or wrong, our country!'"

The company of antiques of Bethel and Danbury, bearing sign ''The Forgotten Engine Co.,, 1795, 1915 and resurrected in 19OO," attracted everyone's attention. They wore straw hats, white duck pants and drew an ancient piece of fire appara. tus. They received lots of applause, and deservedly, too. Bethel also had good reason to be proud of the large and fine appearing body of men it sent up, the boys of the Alert Hose Co.,, Grassy Plain Hose Go. and Eureka Hook and Ladder Co.,, receiving lots of attention. They wore the regulation suit of blue and won all the girls' hearts. The Alert boys had ag mascot Master Carleton Bailey, riding on "Ed'' Andrews peculiarly marked pony.
 The Danbury firemen made splendid appearance, and won favorable comment by their soldierlv bearing. They were led by the Bethel drum corps, who got gene rous applause. One of the finest appearing companies in line were the Litchfield boys. They were finely costumed in suits of brown or buff color, and were led by the crack Amer

Ansonia. With their blue coats, white duck pa snts and leather legg' ms, they made a stunning appearance. They introduced some novelties, also, in their manner of marching. Their parade carriage was drawn by red ropes. The parade car riage was surmounted by 8 fine eagle. They were led by the famous Colts band of Hartford. The Sandy Hook drum corps, who were with one of the Bethel companies, made fine appear ance. They were the equals, if not su- perior, to any drum corps in line and re- ceived considerable attention along the lire of march.

 HOW THE BOYS WE'RE ENTERTAINED. In the way of entertainment the boys
 were furnished with lavish hand. At the
 south end of the green large tent had
 been erected and here the tables were
 filled again and again by the firemen and
 visiting friends. To Miss Adellne l..
 Buck, the talented chairman of the ladies' committee of arrangements, who presided over the tables, too much praise cannot
 be given. Her able assistants were Mrs John F. Addis, Mrs Frank E. soale,
 Mrs Mary Erwin, Mrs Philip Planz, Miss Eva Hoyt, Mrs J. J. Pickett, Mrs s. R.
 Hill, IT,, Mrs Hubert Thomas, Mrs Charles N. Hall and Mrs John B. Dun- can. The success of the parade of 1900 was in 8 large measure due to the kind assistance of the ladies, which will not soon be forgotten.
 To the officials of the New York and New Haven road praise is due for the ad. mirable manner in which they handled the crowd. Assistant Superintendent Lyon of the Berkshire division was on duty during the day at the station. Ann ple cars were provided and there was no friction or confusion. This added largely, also, to the success of the occasion.
 The editor of THE BEE desires to return special thanks to John B. Cox, former for courtesies extended. With Postmaster Duncombe Of Newtown he was pleasantly entertained at the home of MT and Hrs Cox on Whittlesey ave- nue,and kindly escorted by MT Cox about the village.
 On South Main street the committee of arrangements had placed large tubs of lemonade, 30 that when the boys passed that way they had chance to refresh themselves. While the line was resting near Mrs Sanford's house at the north end of the green, the firemen who hap pened to be at that point were generously treated to refreshing drinks.
 The 1900 Fireman's parade as com-
