statement written for the Chronicle by a
chrchman from Honolulu says:
The people of Hawaii are strongly in
favor of their church being placed un-
der the jurisdiction of an American

Although the church in Honolulu has

AUTOMOBILE BULL FIGHT,
Horse RELOCATED to the Rear as 8
Mount for the Picador.

NEW YORK, Sept. 27.-The Biarritz.
France, correspondent of the Herald
says: Next Sunday there is to be bull
night in the Bayonne arena, but bull
night such as has never been seen before.
1t will be fight of an automobile against
a bull.
Mr.. Henry Deutsch, whose name is con-
nected with the prize for aerial naviga-
uon, will preside Mr.. Deutsch when
interviewed concerning this latest novel
plan for demonstrating the merits of the
automobile, said:
My opinion is that an automobile can
be used instead of a mounted picador,
and If the picador is placed on swiftly
revolving automobile the sport might be
immense.
II hold that with a capable chauffeur
the automobile could avoid the charges
of the bull. My idea in all this is that
as the revolving feature of bull fighting
is the mutilation Of the horse, this could
be avoided by the use of the automo-
bile
