WILL BE
TWO FAIRS
AT ONCE

TWO great fairs at one and the same
time, double attractions for the
visitors to Honolulu during the
third week of July, exhibits, not only
of the giant pumpkin and the startling
potato, but as well OF the various spe-
cialties of the merchants of the city.
and to cap all, such sports as have not
been seen for many day, all Will COM
blne to draw such a concourse OF the
Island folk to the capital as will repay
the local merchants, who are the pro-
ponents of the plan, and those who
make displays for the carrying out of
the general scheme.
After a week of hard work, devoted
TO seeing almost every person who may
contribute to the ultimate success of
the fair, the committee of the Mer-
chants Association has something tan
gibleSupon which to work. This is the
practical agreement that the date set
for the Agricultural Fair shall be that
of the Merchants Fair. This conclu-
sion was reached yesterday after a
long discussion of the entire situation
with Governor Cooper and Commits
sioner of Agriculture Wray Taylor.
During the talk over the desire on
both sides to cooperate for the good
of the two displays, 1t was brought out
strongly that there cannot be an al
teration of the date for the agricultural
exhibit without great hardship upon
the wouldbe exhibitors, who are grow
ing special products for this occasion.
The result was the declaration on the
part of the Governor that as this event
was decided upon by the Legislature
and arrangements made in advance,
there must not be any alteration of tie
tent, and the decision on their part to
recommend the postponement of the
proposed fair to that time will probably
follow.
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1902-05-12

The committee is hard at work to Sc
cure those concessions from the trans
portation and entertainment companies
which will have the effect of insuring
the success of the double event. one
of the steamship companies is said 20
have offered the committee a guarantee
of a reduction on round-trip rates of
30 per cent. The other will make the
cut in prices for the excursion to this
city 80 per cent. Both these figures
are subject to review, and there may
be still further reductions when there
have been secured such attractions as
will draw a vast crowd and give them
every reason to want to come again.
Until there is something more definite
the shipping people say that they can
not agree to make a heavy cut ir the
rates for the round trip.
The committee is not ready to aban-
don hope that the steamer folk will
be as liberal here as are the transpor-
tation companies in the states upon
similar occasions, and make the
cost of the visit to the city during fair
week one fare for the round trip. This
they think would insure a great crowd
and would further make the success of
the fair an assured thing. In addition
to the people of the shipping trade the
committee is endeavoring to secure
concessions from the hotels which will
attract many visitors.
The attractions are being made ready
every day, in prospect. The Jockey
Club officials are certain that they can
have race meet at Kapiolani Park
which will be not second to that OF
June 18th. They say there Will be
plenty of time to draw back the horses
from Hilo and get them to going we'll
after their sea trip. There would re
no difficulty in having a return match
between the victors of the Fourth of
July boat races, and tbc ball and other
games would offer entertainment 10 all
others to whom these sports do not APP
peal.
There will be called a meeting of tire
Merchants Association to pass upon
the plans as soon as the Transportation
companies say their last word and the
decision will be made as to the holding
of the fair.

Superintendent Boyd, of the Public
Works Department having come to an
understanding with nearly all the
property owners in the-section. There
are one or two more pieces to be ar
ranged for. and then the department
can go ahead with the extension. The
street will be somewhat wider than the
present upper Fort street and will open
up large amount of property.

London (By Cable. e).--Edward VII,
r. l., by the grace OF God, OF the Unit
ed Kingdom of Great Britain and Ire
land and OF the British Dominion be-
yond the seas. King, Defender OF the
Faith, Emperor OF India, was crowned
Saturday without hitch or harm.
In all respects the celebration was
impressive, and it was carried out with
a perfection of detail and lack of asci-
dents that has rarely characterized
similar displays. That pride of empire
which marked Queen Victorias jubilee
was lacking, and in its stead there per-
vaded all classes a keen recollection that
only six weeks ago their King lay in
danger OF DEATH and this produced
thankfulness and genuine sympathy for
the man rather than adulation OF the
King This feeling was voiced by the
Archbishop OF Canterbury, when he in
serted in one OF the coronation prayers
the words, for whose recovery we now
give thee heartfelt thanks" Yet this
did not prevent the public from voicing
appreciation OF such military display as
the short procession gave them a
chance to see.
Earl Roberts, commander-in-chief of
the forces, was once more the hero Of
the hour, and, next to the King himself
