into a good-looking animal

well as in the days of his youth His
performances in the Islands are too well
known to need recapitulation. He is by
Joe Hooker out of Jessie r.

The following excellent sentiment was
recently expressed by George s. Nc
Kenzie of Hilo in an interview:
II have some good horses, but l viii
not race any of them except in match
races, for the reason that as manager OF
the track 1 do not feel that it is just te
the owners of other horses for me tic
compete with them in races for purses
1 want to see good sport, the best Htle
has had and l believe it is only fair tt
men not connected with the enterprise
that they should be given every oppor
tunity to win the purses. There can b'
no remarks made then, that have fxet
up or had arranged a program in which
my horses would have little the bes
show to go under the wire first"
