SHAMROCK III. IS SPEEDY

Gourock. Scotlnnd.-The Shamrock
Ill. and the Shamrock !. went for a
trial spin. Sunshine and light, steady
breeze had succeeded wild weather.
and no time was lost in getting the
two Shamrocks OF.
Though the breeze was light It was
decided not to risk anything. and the
cup challenger's working topsail was
accordingly set. The Shamrock !. fol-
lowed suit.
The challenger was the first to leave
her moorings. and looked the picture
OF q racer as she headed of shore.
Out in Gourock Bay the wind was
so light that the motion was more drift
ing than sailing. The Shamrock III.
slipped through the water without leav-
ing a ripple and carrying her head
well up.
y The first time the challenger broke
tack II was apparent that by shortening

compared with cup racers.
She carried her way right through
turning and was of on her new course
while the older boats would have been
still looking at il, thus showing herself
free Of the greatest weakness Of Sham
rock II.
There was no attempt at set race.
The Shamrock III. went OF over a
mile ahead. and then the sheets were
trimmed on both boats and course
was laid down channel.
Both yachts were close hauled while
crossing the mouths OF Holy Loch and
Loeb Long. as the wiEd was squally
and uncertain. Both sailed faster as
they got q better breeze. and the
challenger showed herself to he little
tender In squalls. But she sailed with
her lee rail Just clear Of the water.
She travelled fast and closed steadily
upon the Shamrock ]. Under the mOun-
famous Cowal Peninsula the land
breeze came true and fairly fresh.
and the yachts went fetching down the
channel on what looked like real racing
tests, In which the Shamrock Ills
greater speed was demonstrated.

During this eight miles she had

THE SUNDAY ADVERTISER.

The Sunday Advertiser now has more
readers in this city than even the Daily
Advertiser, though the circulation of
the latter throughout the Territory is
larger. 1t is remarkable how strong a
hold the Sunday paper has on the COM
munity. Small in size compared with
the daily, being an eight-page paper,
it is eagerly bought and read by an in
creasing throng. You see and hear of it
everywhere; it is bought in quantities
to send away; the newsboys declare it
to be the best selling paper in Homo
lulu.
Yet in advertising patronage. while
the Sunday publication is doing a fair
business, it is way below the mark OF
the daily. Why this should be so we
cannot determine by any standard of
press patronage elsewhere. On the
mainland a merchant makes five times
the use of a Sunday paper that he does
OF daily. His heaviest contracts go
to il. Let anyone count the columns
OF advertising in a San Francisco daily
anu COlilpdlG llGllA Will lIOSt "a the
Sunday issue and he will be astonished.
On the mainland If not here the mer-
chant realizes that the man who lops
down Sunday morning to read a fresh
newspaper spends enough time over it
to read advertisements and all. He
takes the whole thing in. The hurried
reader of a daily consults the advertis-
ing columns for the particular thing
he wants, while the leisurely reader of
a Sunday print searches them to find
whatever is unique or interesting.
Honolulu merchants who have tried
the Sunday issue stay by it. They see
what it brings them. Once a man has
started, there is no danger of losing
his contract. He knows a good thing
too we'll. But too many merchants in
the community are hanging back from
a venture which has proved its value
TO their class in every mainland city.
When they wake up and begin to take
notice and go ahead, the publishers of
the Sunday Advertiser will feel justified
in meeting them half way by making
the paper larger, better and even more
Indispensable than it is.

TO fight THE INSECT PEST.

The public will be gratified to Learn
that the Board of Health has made VI
it's mind to fight the mosquito. The
Board will have its inspectors look
after breeding places Of the insect and
will make free use Of petroleum. In
this way IL is certain that the spread
OF the dengue may be checked and the
campaign.
We may as we'll all understand that
little can be done by the Tourist Com
mittee until dengue is driven out. All
sorts Of exaggerated rumors about the
disease prevail on the coast and they
lose nothing at the hands Of California
hotel keepers. One returning kama
alma heard in San Francisco that there
had been 1900 cases Of dengue here, 300
OF them fatal. A fortnight or so ago
Congressman McCleary and a party of
seven came here 10 stay month: hut
hearing so much of the dengue they
got out in forty-eight hours. 1t is OBJ
vious that. while dengue is here, the
Tourist Committee Will be up against
it."
No more mosquitoes. no more dengue
that is the proposition in brief. As
DR.. Mays lately pointed out, if the city
stops the breeding OF mosquitoes in its
own doOr-yards, it need not fear a
visitation of them from the outlying
rice and taro swamps. The mosquito, |
unless driven away by the high winds |
which carry such swarms of insects out
to sea, is born, lives and dies in one
small area, like a door-yard or bit of |
pasture land, where there is standing |
water. He does not travel the length |
OF a block. Hence If every householder /
would see to his own premises and de-
stroy or cover up every breeding place,
the city would be comparatively free
from mosquitoes no matter how many /
might be found in the rice and taro
fields.
AS to the treatment of the latter,
petroleum might be turned into the
streams that feed them, with good re-
suits; also into duck ponds and pools.
In the latter as Captain Larsen pointed
out the other day fish serve a useful
purpose by eating the mosquito larvae.
else of value might be done
by importing nighthawks and mos
plants, such as grow in
the swamps of Florida.
Now that the fight is begun it should
be thorough. Everything of proved
efficacy in the war against mosquitoes
should be used. Judging from the sue
cess met with in New Jersey where the
pest is infinitely worse than here, it
ought not to take more than three or
mosquito as rare as the Kalakaua ten
cent piece.
