BOAT RACES.
There are many citizens who. prefer
ring to spend the Fourth away from the
hot and tiresome town, have planned
different forms of amusement in the
country. Among these the men from the
Land o Cakes and ParriCh' have an
all day picnic on the grounds of 5. NJ
Damon at Moanalua, where Scottish
sports viii be enjoyed. Dancing the
reel on the brae and over the crossed
Claymores, listening to the pibroCh
skirled by the leather lungs and swift
fingers of the piper of the clan Hawaii
an, clad in all the bravery of tartan
kilt, plaid and hose, with cairngorm
brooch spOtless spOrran and keen skene
dhu, tossing the caber. wrestling i'm the
heather golf, football and other High
land sports, will constitute the pro-
gram. The tropical climate forbids
curling or that would be included.
There will be a bigger crowd at Pearl
Harbor lochs perhaps than the one that
remains in town. The boat and yacht
ing clubs have always furnished a fea-
ture of the Fourth and this year have
made special efforts towards making an
all day program of their own to attract
the citizens to the cool breezes of the
| lOChs the harbOr being impraCticable
as racing ground on account of the
new Wharves and shipping. The Hea-
| lanis and Myrtles have been i'm steady
| training for weeks past and are now
ensconed in training quarters at Pearl
! HarbOr, where they are putting on the
final touches for the races under the
deft suggestion and general superVis-
ion of their coaches.
The Healanis and Myrtles both have
| two crews, the senior and Junior tours
to row against each other. All are
well matched ana ii is expected that
! the record time for Honolulu will be
/ broken and the course roWed in consid-
! erably better than ten minutes. The
| sight is a pretty one. Against the
! mountain backgrounds Of Waianae and
! the ranges back of Honolulu, the wa
/ ters CLEAN brightly just rufned by the
! cool trades which rustic the trees that
/ border the Icons and the emerald
! stretches of the sugar plantations. The
! crowd arrives by train soon after nine
! o'clock, enthusiastic over the crews and
! wearing the red and white or blue and
white colors in nearly equal proportion.
! The engineers of the trains remain i'm
! partial but decorate their iron horses
| with patriotic bunting.
