James Campbell's Hotel.

The ST. James Hotel at San Jose
built by the late James Campbell OF
Honolulu has against changed hands.
The News Letter says: An important
hotel deal in San Jose of late has been
the purchase of the st. James Hotel by
George Nj. Murphy. for the sum OF
$3.50, 600. The ST. James is the leading
hostelry in the Garden City, and in
cludes $50 rooms in all, with 125 en-
suite with baths. The ST. James has a
thoroughly modern dining room, ca
pacious and pleasant, and the service
will be the very best to be had. The
location of the hotel makes it especial
ly desirable. since it's proximity TO St
James Square gives it at once a CEN
trail and a quiet situation. Mr. Muir
ply. the purchaser, has had charge OF
the Children's Playground since it open
ed in October, 1883, and those familiar
with the success of that enterprise feel
assured that the Hotel St. James is
opening on an era of unprecedented
prosperity

HAWAIIANS ARE
LOSING GROUND
Caucasians and Other Races
Adding to Their Num-
bers Here.

The Caucasian race in these islands
has increased in numbers since 1896 to
the extent of 2S,533, gain of 6,Os5 in
less than five years. The principal gain
comes from natural increase among the
Portuguese, the remainder being cred
tied both to natural increase and inn
migratio In 1896 the whole white
population was 22,4
According to the census bulletins just
received the number of Hawaiians in
these Islands is 29.S34. In 1896 the num-
Der was 31.019. The part Hawaiians
now number 1885. but in 1896 they num-
bered 8,4S5. The decrease in the num-
Der of Hawaiians is 1,1S5 and of part
Hawaiians $50.
The increase in the number of Chinese
since 1896 is $3.50. the present numbei
being 25,742. In 1896 there were 2,32!
Japanese; now there are 61,122 an In
crease of 3S,793.

FAST RACERS

Tom Ryder and Ayres P. Ar
rive Socialist Now on
the Way.

The following correspondence from
Maui, relative to the polo match to be
played next Saturday between the Oahu
and Maui clubs, was received yesterday:
Today. per Claudine. eight or ten ponies
belonging to members of the Makawao
Pelc Club will be shipped to Honolulu,
though the players themselves will not
go to the capital till next week. They
wish their animals to get well over the
stiffness incident to sea trip before the
contest takes place
The men who will contend against the
Oahu players are Messrs. l.. Won Temps
ky (captain), D. c. Lindsay, w. o. Al
ken and Harry Copp. This team Is an
excellent one, though 1t is not the best
THAI could be selected.
II. comparison with the Oahu four, they
are heavier, and weight Is of importance
VIXEN 1t comes to interference and scram-
bling for the ball; but on the other hand
the Oahu boys will probably be better
mounted as class and may score over
the Maui men by running away with the
ball. Then. too, the ground at Noanalua
is very smooth, while at Sunnyside, Pa
ia. the field is rough. This haudicaps
Makawao. However, the Oahu Club will
have to play good polo to win, for in the
last three practice games the Makawao
four have played fierce ana irresistible
game against their opponents.

OF Interest to the Bishop.

Churchmen in Honolulu are pretty
well of one opinion as to what they de-
sire. but they are slow of movement,
says the Anglican Church Chronicle.
They will be called upon at no very dis
tant date to give answers to questions
concerning their spiritual eds; it is
to be hoped that they Will be ready.
