WAIOHINU HAS
PRETTY TABLEAUX

The rural quiet of the lovely hill
bound village of Waiohinu was dis
turbed in a most agreeable manner on
Saturday evening, May 18TH The
treasury of the Kauahaao Church pre-
sided over by the Rev. James Kauia-
ne seemed to have caught the same
complaint as the treasury Of Hawaii.
and without resorting to an expensive
legislative experiment the members of
the church very properly decided to
sit hard down on the state Of affairs
in a most effective manner.
BY the determined efforts Of w. K.
Makakoa, assisted by w. NJ. Kauhane,
on behalf of the male members. and
Miss E. Kauhane, at the head OF the
female members, an entertainment was
decided on, and tableau taken from
that very pretty Hawaiian legend of
Kaala, was effectively presented with
all the necessary scenic effects. Mrs.
f. K. Pinao made charming princess,
and young Kainoa, a village boy, made
a veritable Hawaiian chieftain, and SO
forcibly did he tell the old, old story,
that he could not fail winning his lady
love and carried her off In his canoe
amid the applause Of a large and
appreciative audience. The net result
was $120 added to the treasury, very
much to the satisfaction of all con-
cerned. w. r. II.

is full of ex-Mauites and of course they
form a very desirable and altogether de-
lightful class of metropolitans.
The hotels of Honolulu are all full,
and more coming all the time. The Ha-
waiian is pre-eminently the business
mems hotel, and you meet everybody
worth knowing at the Hawaiian. he
Gently Manager Allen designed a lovely
crest for the hotel, and mad large de-
sign of 1t erected over the entrance. The
design is copied in part from the shield
on the Hawaiian half-dollar This de-
sign in mammoth size Twelve feet over
alp, and circular in shape, IS wrought in
colored glass, illuminated from the inte-
rior by electric lights. Above and on
either side of the shield are the initials
of the hotel, and underneath this the
word ALOHA" Three systems of
lights are attached, one of which lights
the interior, one the initials and lettering
and one the outer circumference. The
whole design is marvelously unique and
beautiful, and it is singular that 1t has
not attracted more notice from the Ho-
nolulu press. being merely alluded to by
some of them recently as "transpar-

GARTALENE
ON THE WAY

Rain fell at the track yesterday after
noon in about the quantity desired by
the speedmarkers. The going should be
good today.
Yesterday morning w. H. Rice, w. H.
Rice, Jr., and Tom King were present
at the track to witness the work done
by their horses which are now being
trained by ]. Garrison.
Albert covered a mile in 1:5S, the last
quarter being traversed in 80.

following it with another in 2:4S. The
horses showing was disappointment
to his connections, for not long ago he
was driven out in 2:3S, and great things
were naturally expected Of him. Since
then he seems to have gone back.
McManus logged Ayres R, but the old
horse was not in kindly mood and sulked
badly.
Word comes from Pleasanton, Cal,
that the PAGER known as the Honolulu
horse" has recently shown mile in
2:10
The horse referred to was shipped here
by W. Edmunds with a number of green
horses. John Ouderkirk bought the ami
NAL for s16O and gave him to McManus
to train.
McManus drove him a mile last year
! in 2:13 and he was afterwards sold to
A. Dortch for 81 600 and sent back to
the Coast.
| He is a bright bay gelding and has a
mark of 2:07. 1t is said that he will be
sent East and raced this season.

addition to which she will be running
on her own track.
Bob Balientyne and George Spencer are
mentioned as being likely to furnish the
official Handicapped.
| Edmunds and horses are expected per
the Zealandia on Saturday.
| Local horsemen are wondering why 30
cialist was not shipped direct to Homo
lulu on fast boat instead of being con-
isigned to Hilo on a sailing vessel. The
cost of shipment would have been very
little more indeed the veriest tribe,
when the value of the horse is taxi into

AS matters stand Socialist will have a

race him here. He cannot arrive mere
before the 18th inst. at the very earnest

David Unauna.
Mr.. Unauna has taken snap shots OF
nearly every horse at the track and has
made up several series of views which
he is disposing of to friends at the mere
cost of mounting. The pictures are be-
ing very generally circulated and the ar
fist, who is an amateur working for
the love of the thing, is unconsciously
doing a great deal for local racing.

SEES THINGS

Three years ago Honolulu was a chrys-
ais; today it is a butterfly This is
trite metaphor, but 1t falls short of de-
scribing the metamorphosis which has
taken place. The Judd building was the
only indication in '9S of tie era of build
ing which was to begin in Honolulu. To-
day Honolulu is a rustling little metrop-
oils with dozens of large, substantial
business blocks in course of erection. AT
present the principal business houses
cluster on Fort street, which is narrow,
crooked and, altogether unfit for BUSH
ness street. Rents are exorbitantly high
and it is a safe prediction mat in a few
years keen competition which, will de-
mand lower rents will cause an exodus
from Fort street to Alakea or some of
the wider streets where rents are cheap
er. and the business of the town wln
shift from Fort street, just as in San
Francisco it once shifted from Kearney
and Montgomery streets to cheaper To-
calitieS on Market street, and for the
same reason is again shifting from Mar
ket street to the side street toward the
western addition.
While there is no line of business in
Honolulu which at present can be fairly
said to be overdone still competition is
beginning TO make itself keenly felt,
and the time is surely coming when the
survival of the fittest" will prevail
An hour spent in the Senate chamber
gives one who is familiar with such
matters a very clear conception of the
real trouble which the present Legisla-
ture has had to encounter. and 1t Is a
solemn truth that there is more need for
pity than blame. The Home Rulers are
trying to do their duty and their earnest
but fruitless efforts are pathetic almost
to tears. The truth is that they do not
know either who OF how to do, and 1t Is
unfortunate for them and for the people
of the Islands they were elected On
Monday, the Appropriation bill was un-
der consideration item by item, and the
ignorance which was displayed by the
members as to the actual needs of the
different departments was refreshing.
This is not surprising, and could be cas-
lily overcome, If practical methods of get
ting at the truth were adopted. If the
Senate would resolve itself into a prac-
teal, businesslike body. and appoint a
committee of three or five members. say,
for instance, Baldwin, Kalauokalani and
Crabbe, and instruct them to summon
expert witnesses and report back at
once to the Senate, the actual needs of
each department, inside of two weeks a
, fair and proper appropriation would be
, ready for the Governors signature. A
few questions could be reserved, If neces-
sary for discussion by the Senate as a
body, not necessarily, but merely to give

On the courts of the Pacific Tennis
Club yesterday afternoon Frank Ather-
ton defeated c. A. Elston for the gentle
mems singles championship in three
straight sets, the score being 60. Sc, 7-5.
The contest was somewhat of a disap-
pointment, for the majority of those
present expected Elston to make a hard
fight for first honors and many though
well of his chances of victory.
Elston played a strong and Atherton a
crafty game and as was the case last
year the best headwork won. In Ather-
ton, Honolulu possesses finished tennis

ATHLETICS ON
MAUI BOOMING

Maui has entered into the spirit of
athletics with a vim and intends to
give the Honolulu teams a close rub
for honors. Most of the young men
of Wailuku, including Makawao, La
haina, Kula, Ulupalakua and Kahului,
have banded themselves together under
the cognomen of the Maui Athletic As
sociation, and within few weeks will
be ready TO challenge for baseball
match.
e. B. Wells, manager of Wailuku
plantation, has given the association
"a six-acre tract of land IN Waikiki,
Just below Judge Kalua's premises,
which is to be laid out for baseball,
tennis, polo and football. The work
of Transforming the cane field into an
athletic park was begun last Friday.
under the direction of w, II. Cornwell
Jr The ground is being plowed up,
and will be narrowed until 1t is per-
fectly level. In time fence will en-
close the field, and it will be made one
of the chief attractions of Waikiki.
Turf will be planted, so that by the
ground will be in fit condition for the
toughest playing. The association will
make a strong pull to bring some OF
the Honolulu teams over, and VIII re-
turn the favor in kind.
