II HE first cruise and regatta of the
Hawaii Yacht Club which began
on Saturday afternoon in Homo
lulu harbor with a fine run of eight
miles to Puuloa, Pearl Harbor, and 8
return race yesterday afternoon TO the
spar buoy, was a marked success
Everything favored the club. Fine
weather was experienced all the way
down to Pearl Harbor, the luau at the
old salt house, off which the yachts
were anchored, viii be long remember
ed; the evening was magnificent; the
breeze was just the kind to keep off the
longlegged mosquitoes, and yesterday
was an ideal day for racing around
Fords Island and the homeward course
Three races brought out several sur
prises in the management of the small
boats, the Vi-ke. Skip. Myrtle and
Shamrock. 1t was from the boats OF
this class, as we'll as the Swampscott
dory Oio and the yawI-rigged CIytie
that the most earnest work came. The
boats joclzeyed over the various courses
Wed with each other in tacking, and
made a most commendable exhibition
of seamanship. The rest of the boats
mixed up with the bunch on the long
runs and made affairs more interesting
for the little fellows. In the race down
to Pearl Harbor Saturday and on the
return race yesterday afternoon. the
small boats crossed the line first, fol-
lowed closely in each instance by the
first class yacht Gladys, the flagship
of the fleet. The time limit gave the
small boats twenty minutes start over
the first class boats, which was just
sufficient on an eight-mile course to
allow them to beat in first.
The prettiest exhibition was in the
race home yesterday afternoon when
the contest for supremacy dwindled
down to a duel between the Myrtle
owned and captained by c.. A. Crozfer,
and the Vi-ke owned and captained by
Prince David Kawananakoa, which sur
prised the yachtsmen by a splendid run
home. The Myrtle rounded the spar
buoy at 1853 p. m. and the Vi-ke one
minute later 1t was nip and tuck
between the two boats and until they
were upon the bell buoy, there was lit
tie apparent advantage in favor of eth
er one. Behind them the Gladys came
rushing down the channel from the
bell buoy, only two minutes behind the
Vi-ke, which was overhauled just in
side the lighthouse Commodore Hob
ron showed himself a master of sailing
on the return trip, and although the
Gladys started just ahead of her op-
ponent, the Mary L.. the last vessel to
leave Pearl Harbor and half an hour
behind those which responded to the
starters signal first, she almost over
hauled the entire fleet.
The yachts returned to Honolulu har-
Dor in the following order:

vessels made a pretty sight. AT 1928
the Marion, of the second class, went
over the line, followed by the Hawaii
and Dewey. The Sound schooner Fall
con was then being towed out, and she
almost blanketed the Hawaii and
Dewey. They got around into the
weather and went bowling down the
channel after the little fellows.
AS the Mary L did not go on the run,
the Gladys was without an opponent,
and merely went out the channel, with
out rounding the bell buoy. She dipped
sher eQmmodore's flag to the battleship
6 Wisconsin, and then slipped on after
the fast receding sails. The wind died
down somewhat. Two-thirds down the
ecourse the Abbie NJ and Clytie were
neck and neck. The Skipp kept close
in-shore. almost to the breaker line,
and Conkling was seen to have chosen
a wise course in many respects, as he
I1was able to round the Pearl Harbor
Fentrance flag ahead Of his opponents.
lat this time the Shamrock and the
isYi-ke were close together The Ha-
Waii was we'll ahead of the Marion and
Dewey. 1t was a steady even course all
the way down, the wind not blowing
Itself to any extent. The Oio went on
ahead of Hihimanu and the Clytie, and
was seen to be making a splendid fight
for the pennant in her class. When the
nag at Puuloa was reached, the ves-
tsels were in order, as follows: Clytie
Abbie NJ, Hihimanu, Skip, Maria, Vike
and Shamrock.
The Skip, when inside the channel.
made too close to the Puuloa shore,
and as the Gladys went past her, her
keel caught in a mud shoal, and the
little craft, which almost had the vic
tory, was compelled to nod to the 9TH
ers Of her class as they scudded by
III deep water to the finishing line not
100 yards away. The vessels arrived
off the salt house, which was the fin
ishing point, as follows. the time being
taken from the clock in the cabin OF
the Gladys:

alton is known. Its first officers in 63
were: President, DR.. c. P. judd Re
cording Secretary, E. w. Clark; Core
spending Secretary, L. D. Gulick; Treas
urer. &. o. Hall.
In II the North Pacific Institute was
founded for the training of preachers and
evangeIists, with DR. c. NJ. Hyde as prin-
cipal
In So the Chinese work was assumed
by the Board, and placed under the lead
ership of F. w. Damon.
Up to this time the Board was confined
almost entirely to foreign missions.
81 saw the Inauguration of the Japa-
nese work of the Board, in charge OF
Rev. o. II. Gulick.
80 witnessed the beginning of the Por-
tuguese mission, led by Rev. e. w. Ries

FINANCIAL EXHIBIT.
Since 1863, 1929, 0l7.08 has been spent by
the Hawaiian Board. OF this sum, 1854,
g0S.OO was used here on the Islands in
about this way:
For Hawaiian and general work .$4o7, ,52S
For Chinese and general work 1885
For Japanese and general work Si,6iS
For Portuguese and general work ,4o0
The amount used has not been taken
away. It is here yet. (Curiously enough,
the amount sent away to missions.
S344. 1879, is here too. This is not accord
ing to bookkeeping. but may be relied
upon Eco. 11:1)
This 1854, ,9OS takes no account of the
much larger sum spent in building and
maintaining churches.
In 1864 there was spent for home work
S96i; in 1901. $3S.54t.

lently and everyone is having good
time. The girls wagon arrived

The new Oklahoma country is on
the boom. Anadarko seems to
have the lead and will make the
best town in southern Oklahoma.
Town lots are averaging $40 apiece.
Sixty-three lots sold the other day,
the first lot selling for S165. There
are four wells, IS feet deep, on the
public square and furnish water for
5000 people. The Washita river
runs at the north edge of town.
There is lots of timber along the
river, and the hills are dotted
with black oak. Anadarko
has two railroads, one running south
and one from Chickasha to Mangum
west of here. There are two nation
al banks here on the public square,
and sixteen lumber yards with 200
loaded cars on side tracks. The
Rock Island is grading south out of
Enid. This road will intersect the
south branch from here thus making
cutoff for the passenger and
through freight trains. There is no
reason why Anadarko should not
make a good town. Capitalists rep
resenting every industry are here on
the ground. ~

A great many farmers and cattle
men are putting up bunch grass for
winter feed. Bunch grass grows in
punches in the sand hill country and
has hitherto been considered prac-
tically worthless and unfit for use,
Notwithstanding stock nibble at it
when the ground is covered with a
deep snow. Bunch grass, if the
truth were known, has saved many
thousands of cattle from starvation
in the sand hill districts of western
Kansas. But be that as it may, ev-
erything goes this year, and hun
dreds of tons of bunch grass hay
will be put up.-Cimarron Sentinel.
The Dodge City boys are consid-
erably incensed at the management
of the reunion because they were not
engaged to play at the reunion next
week. We understand that the man
agement desired them to furnish the
music, but the price asked for the
four days by the band manager was
$1oo which the reunion managers
could not see their way clear to pay
as they secured a band for $50
which they did. The management
has offered prize to be competed
for by the bands present at the re-
union. We notice that some of the
hardest kickers against the reunion
management for not hiring the home
band are those who never contribut.
led dollar toward defraying any OF
the expenses of this kind. We are
at all times in favor of patronizine
home talent and industry but not &c
the extent of bankrupting the treas

did what they thought was for the
best and for the interest of all con
cerned.-Dodge City Democrat.
