HAD BIG PRICE
FOR BANANAS

Hong Kee, a Honolulu banana ex-
porter, received an agreeab BILE surprise
by the mail brought by the Coptic. On
the last trip to the coast of the steamer
Tampico, of the Globe Navigation Com
pany's line. he sent a consignment of
1913 punches of bananas. as a trial ship
ment- These We're in such good shape
when they arrived in Seattle that they
sold for s1.65 bunch-a high price for
bananas.
Out of this sum he has TO pay COM
mission of ten per cent and thirty five
cents freight for each bunch, leaving
him a handsome profit. This is much
better price than can be secured at San
Francisco. and Agent Beebe OF the
Globe Company thinks that the result
of the first shipment is so good that
some heavy ones to the same port will
now follow.
Hong KEGS bananas We're sold in
Seattle to a firm which shipped them
on to Cape Nome. The fact that Seat
tie dealers sent them on shows that
they have a good opinion OF Hawaiian
bananas and believe that they can be
safely shipped very long distances.

OARSMEN
ARE HARD
AT WORK

Oarsrnen are working as hard for the
regatta day events this year as men
can work for the accomplishment of
their object, and if there is anything
lacking in the days sports it will not
be because of the training of the crews
of the boat clubs There are always
two sixes on the waters of the harbor
after o'clock. and from the showing
there should be some consistent work
done by the veterans.
There was some talk of Prince Cupid
having a crew in the barge race, simply
for the sport of the race, even if there
was little chance of his getting his men
into form to beat the seasoned crews
of the clubs, but his absence on the
other islands on political business may
interfere with this intention. Nothing
Will be certain until his return. He has
a crew of Hawaiians. who are fast men
with the oars, as shown in the last
years boat races, when they gave fine
exhibition, but what they will do in
barge is question
There are two complete crews trying
for the freshmen barge for the Hea a
mis-. The men are out whenever they
have chance and from the occupants
of the two boats will be drawn the rep
resentative six, the choice to be made
during the coming week, after which
hard training will be done. The make
up of these crews is as follows: Stroke,
Barrie; 8, Austin; 4, w. G. Crook Jr.;
3, Wilson; 2, Crook; bow, Crook; stroke,
McCorriston; 5, Clark; 4, Desha; 3, J.
Clark; 2, Spencer; bow, Williams.

q field of candidates from which the
captain should have no difficulty In

ing are: Paul Jarrett, D. B. Renear.
CASTOR Boisse, Harry Murray, A. Il. I
McDuffie, Jean Allan, F. j. Church,
Bert Webster and Fred Damon.
These will be kept at work until
about the first of next month, when
the selection of the crew will be made.
and from that time there will be on
hard work for the candidates. There
is some difficulty in keeping the men
in even primary form now, owing to
the fact that the Healanis have only
two boats, while the Mrytles have four
barges in which their candidates are
hard at work.
While the program has been only
partially discussed it is understood that
there will be a shell race, an intermedi-
ate race and a pair cared race.
The Myrtles are working hard and
expect to have full crews in every |
event The older men are doing the |
most of the work, and their form is be- |
ing displayed in the way they are able |
to handle their barge. They have re-
tanned their shell rowing to degree,
and the outlook is that they will put /
into the water d six which will be as |
fast as any Myrtle crew that has rowed |
in recent years. The captain is keeping /

NATIVE SONS TO
HAVE A BANQUET

Californians, or rather native born
Californians. will celebrate California's
Admission Day on the evening of Sep
TENDER 9, by giving a banquet. This
was decided on at meeting of Native
Sons held in the drill shed last even
ing, George w. r. King being the
chairman and A. Newhouse, secretary.
A committee on arrangements, consist
ing of five Californians, will engineer
the preparations, and it is proposed
that this years banquet Will eclipse
even the one given two years ago.
which is conceded to have been an af-
fair which shed glory upon the Golden
State. The committee is composed of
George w. r. King, chairman ex officio;
J. w. Jones, W. H Hoogs, A New
house, f. H. Petrie and w. Naylor
The motion to hold a banquet was
made by I. Livingstone. There was
some discussion as to whether there
should be a banquet, dance or a bar
becue, or joint banquet of native sons
and native daughters. All suggestions,
however, were put aside except the
banquet for native sons. and the motion
passed.
The committee on arrangements will
appoint sub committees and a thorough
canvass of the city will be made to Sc
cure the names of all native born Cali
fornians. and invite these as well as
those already registered to attend. Aft
er some discussion it was decided to fix
the price for tickets at S. each. which
will give the committee some leeway
for numerous expenses which crop up.
1t was also decided that on the Satur-
day preceding the banquet, the lists
will be closed, and tickets will be given
out at that time on receipt of the fee.

ONE LEAGUE
BALL GAME

While there is only one baseball game
in the league series scheduled for this
afternoon, there will be played two
games on the Oahu campus. The regu-
lar league game is between the Puma
hous and the Kamehamehas, and will
be played at O'Clock.
This game promises to be one of the
warm games of the season. The Ka-
mehamehas won four straight, beating
the Honolulus, and now have lost the
two games which furnish the break in
their winning streak They are show
ing up with a new man, Jones, at first,
and Cockett in right. This should give
strength to the team The Punahous
will play Rabbit at third, unless Mey-
err returns from MoIokai in time for the
game.
Before the league game there will be
a match between the Honolulu Athletic
Juniors and the Wela Ka Haos. The
teams promise some good sport though,
for there are several members of the
championship team in the ranks. The
Athletics will play Aylett, catcher;
Gleason. pitcher; Leslie, first; Bolster,
second; Williams, short; c. Chilling
worth, third; Hansman, left field; Wal
ter Wood, center, and j. Cooke, right.
In the Wela Ka Hao team there will
play Luning, catcher: Jackson. pitcher;
w. AHA, first base; Fernandez, second;
Macfarlane, short; c. Kaanoi, third; E.
Ayau, left field; w. Ayau, center;
Richards. right.
This game will not be in the way of
the regular game, and will be called
when the other is timed. The league
players will endeavor to get into their
contest sharp at 3. so that it may be
over early. The Punahous will play
Hemenway, catcher; Castle, pitcher;
Soper, first base; Steere, second; Mar
callino, short; Babbitt, third, J. Marcal-
limo, left field; Cooke, center; Water
house, right
On the Kamehamehas there will be
David Kekuewa, catcher; Lemon, pitch
er; Jones, first base; Vanatta, second;
Yates, short; Richards, third; Reuter-,
| left field; Koki, center, Cockett, right.
The standing of the clubs is as fol-

POLO MEN
AND FIELD
ARE READY

| When the play begins on the field at
Kapiolani Park next Saturday there
will be gathered group of polo en-
thusiasts who promise to give to lovers
of the sport some of the best play that
has been seen here in recent times. The
field will be in good shape, as the con-
tractors will have it well sodded and
rolled, and there will be all the access
series of high class polo.
The field for the games of this year
will be some 500 by $50 feet, which.
while not up to the regulation in length
is out of proportion in width. This viii
make for better class in the game, for
it affords an opportunity for more
straight driving and will obviate cross
driving in working a ball up the field.
The field will be tagged at center and
corners, and goal posts as well. All or
these necessaries have been attended to
and the players look forward to high
class sport.
Owing to the small number of horses
in training the number of clubs has
been reduced to three, and the whites
and blues will contest the first game.
Judd viii captain the former. his handi-
cap being four and he will have H f.
George Ii Brown, nought, and J. 2.

Prince Cupid, two, or in his absence G..
C. Potter. four, and DR.. McAdory, one,
and Harold Castle, naught, who will
play one period each. This arrange
ment will give each player a change of
horses In the red team, which will
not play the first day, Dillingham; will
have five handicap, Potter four, Irvine
two and Brown and ChilIingworth each
two.
The games will be called at 2:30
o'clock, and any player wishing to con-
test must report at once upon arrival
to the captain, and viii be placed If
there is a chance. There will be no
waits for player when his place may
be filed. The games this year will
consist of twelve minute periods, with
no time taken out.
The prospects are for better play
during this year than usual, owing to
the fact that the men are working
harder than ever with their horses and
their schooling will be made a feature
this year.
