TROPHY FOR YACHTS
HAWAII YACHT CLUB PRESENTED
WITH PRIZE.
Two Races Must Be Held outside the
Harbor and one Inside Pearl Lochs.
Very Handsome Cup.

A gentleman whose interest for the
sport is greater than his desire for per-
sonal fame has presented the Hawaii
Yacht Club with a handsome trophy to
be sailed for by the third class yachts
under certain conditions. The trophy
is a two-handled silver cup of elegant
shape and liberal proportions with the
flags of the club in enamel on it's side
above the inscription "Kahaumana
Cup"
The races for the trophy, as specified
by the unknown donor to the commo-
dore of the club, include two races out
side the harbor, and one inside Pearl
Lochs, repeated, until one boat has
won three times. The outside races
look like a gift for the Princess, but
the race over the inside reaches is an
open event, more than likely to be cap
tured by one of the sidewalk boats.
The trophy is in charge of Commodore
Hebron and is a very handsome cup.
The Myrtle has been heightened two
feet and has, the owners claim, increas-
ed in speed. The trophy will be keen
ly competed for.
Mr.. Merry, of the naval station, a
nephew of Admiral Merry, and a mem
Der of the yacht club, has chartered
the Bonnie Dundee, and will, it - hops
ed, join in the race to Rabbits Island
Some time allowances may be made
the second class boats such as the
Dewey and Hawaii for this race.

THE FIFTH DISTRICT

The Fifth District committee met last
night in the Castle & Cooke building,
but did not come to any agreement on
the question of candidates for the sem
ate. The various precincts made re-
ports, in which the names of Achi, Lane
Hubby and l.. l.. McCandless were
named Achi was named by seven of
the nine precincts which made reports.
The fighting seventh did not make any
report
The letter from the Fourth district
committee, offering to support in joint
convention two candidates from the
Fifth If the latter would agree on them
unanimously, was read 1t was re-
garded by many as an effort of the
Fourth to dictate Fifth district matters
and there is little chance of unanimous
agreement. The Fifth district men will
probably go into the joint convention
and fight as best the delegates can for
Achi, Lane, Hubby and McCandless.

COALING RECORDS.
Japanese Beat the H. NJ. s. "Terrfble's'
Record.

In April last, H. NJ. S. Terrible estab-
lished what was considered a coaling
record for a man-of-war, taking on
board $500 tons in 8 hours 10 minutes.
The highest amount for a single hour
was 425 tons.
On the 9TH inst. we China MaiD re-
ceived a special telegram from Singa-
pore stating that the big cruiser had
beaten the worlds coaling record
held by herself-by taking on board L.
$40 tons in hours at Tanjong Pagan.
These are excellent records, but on
| both occasions special arrangements
| had been made to go for" the record,
Captain Percy Scott being a past mas
| ter in the art of advertising, and hay
ing behind him a willing ships COM
pany But good as there records are
they are quite eclipsed by the perform
ance of the Mitsu Blshi GOshi- Kwai-
sha at Nagasaki on the 25th July. The
Empress of China Captain Archibald)
had been delayed four days waiting for
the mails on the other side of the Pa
Cific. The lost time was regained on
the voyage to Hongkong an exception
ally speedy run being made across the
Pacific; and, in order to facilitate her
passage through Nagasaki, Messrs.
Holme, Ringer & Co. (the c. p. r. Co. $
agents) requested the Mitsu Bishi Co.
% carry out the cOaling as speedily as
possible. The steamer arrived at Ma
gasaki at 1920 a. m. on the 25th July
and sailed again for Shanghai at p.
m, having taken on board 1910 tons of
bunkr coeal in the remarkably quick
time of 81 hours.
Fortunately during the steamers
stay in Nagasaki fine weather prevail
ed and no other vessel was awaiting
bunker coal. Starting at IL a. m, the
cOaling was finished at 2:15 p. m, the
average per hour being 372 tOns-the
quickest on record in Nagasaki, and we
believe, the quickest on record for the
world The Mitsu Bishi management
and Captain Archibald and his ships
company deserve to be highly COM
mended for putting up record that is
likely to stand for some time.

To Save the Buffalo Herds.

According to Forest and Stream,
there is a herd of buffaloes of about
tweniy-siX now on Antelope Island in
the Great Salt Lake. The owner of
this bunch, Mr.. Dooly, is apparently
willing to part with his buffaloes and
the island to the Government, to es-
tablish there a national buffalo reserv-
alton, and the subject certainly de-
serves consideration by the authorities.
The island is described us about
twenty miles long, three to five miles
wide, and with excellent water supply.
The buffaloes are said to be in good
condition, and to maintain themselves
during both summer and winter. Mr..
Dooly's herd is slowly increasing, and
he has very wisely arranged to make
some exchanges of stock with the
National Geological Park, and thus to
infuse fresh blood into his herd. Such
buffalo owners are of the utmost i'm.
portance, for 1t is the only way that
the various small herds can be kept
from deteriorating and finally running
out.
1t has been suggested that If the
Government should see fit to secure
Antelope Island and Mr.. Dooly's buf-
faloes as a beginning of national
park in Utah, there is room also on the
island for other wild animals.

An Automobile Clock.

Carriage clocks, besides hardly being

Devir' fashion, do not look heavy
enough to fasten to these later more
massive machines.
Hence the automobile clock.
Very large and strong is the clock

wealthiest Royal Family.

The Russian reigning house has, It is
said, greater wealth than that of any
other royal family in the world. In
the Rev. II. N. Hutchinson's Living
Rulers of Mankind" it is said that the
minimum revenue the Gear derives
from the crown and State domains in
estimated at $7,500,000 year. More
than forty members Of the imperial
family not in the direct line of sue
cession draw revenues from landed es-
tates set aside for that purpose by the
Emperor Paul 1. To these estates is
given the name Of the imperial appan-
ages; they cover an area of 100000
acres, larger than Scotland, and the
total income derived from them Is $10,-
100000. Before the emancipation of
the serfs 100000 peasants were at
tached to these vast estates, and We're
in a sense the property Of their owners.
Another item of the vast wealth Of
the imperial family, we are further
told, is the quantity of jewels it's men,
bers possess:
'"The Russians love gems. Serfs have
toiled to fashion these wondrous jew
els; Emirs and Shahs, the vassals of
the Gar, have laid them at his feet.
The English Ambassadors daughter
said, laughing, that when Alexander
III. presented the various Grand Ouch
esses, ladies of the Imperial Family,
with most costly jewels on the occasion
of his coronation they thought nothing
of the gifts, but tossed them carelessly
in drawer. To ladies so plentifully
supplied with pearls and diamonds a
fresh necklace or tiara was thing of
small account.

Soloinon's Temple.

The Neues Wiener Tagblatt states
that DR.. Sellim, professor of evan
gelical theology at the University OF
Vienna, who is exploring in Palestine
on behalf of the Imperial Academy
Of Sciences, has discovered the walls
and gateway Of an ancient temple OF
Solomon in the neighborhood of Jano-
hah. DR.. Sellim has drawn up an ac-
curate plan of his discovery, which is
of very great Importance to archae.
ologists.
The Vienna correspondent of the
Daily Telegraph says that what Pro.
fessor Sellim has discovered is the
fortress of King Solomon mentioned
In the Bible. The fort has been en-
tirely destroyed and plundered, yet
it was possible for the explorer to
make an exact plan of it. Professor
Sellim had previously discovered a
Canoanitish fortress. built before the
conquest of Palestine by the Jews,
and also many other pre-Israelitish
antiquities.

how plants avail themselves of various

The leaf is composed of three leaflets,
the largest of which holds itself erect

move constantly, day and night, de-
scribing complete circles, with a pecu-
liar jerking motion like Yhat of the

Incandescent lamps emit more heat
than is generally supposed, only six
per cent of the energy of the current
being converted into light. A sixteen

water to boiling point in an hour, and
fires celluoid in five minutes.

Experiments by the Government
have shown that no matter what the
process of cooking, meat loses great
deal of its bulk, owing to the evapora
ton of the water which constitutes
large part of all flesh. This loss is
greater in small pieces than in the,~
larger ones. In a lean piece of beef
weighing from one to one and three
quarters of a pound, the loss of weight
was 45.G per cent, while in piece
weighing from five to five and three
