The plan for a hrepTuof stadium to
be erected on Soldiers field. Cam
bridge, Mass, has been anticipated by
the completion Of a similar structure
dedicated to a different purpose at the
University Of California. The latter
building is an open air theater. made
Of concrete, which stands in a grove
OF trees, forming a part Of the general
scheme of the college buildings. The
plan Is a close reproduction OF the old

These tWohreprOUf, permanent build

country, but they will undoubtedly be
copied soon In those localities where
the frequent occurrence OF important
athletic contests justihes them. The
burning Of the large south stand on
Soldiers field during the course OF the

as 8 clear illustration Of the dangers

Home Rule victory would mean pros
perity and plenty to eat for all Hawai-
ians. The speakers held forth from
the lanai of a small house a dozen
torches Illuminating the scene. Out
side Of the torch bearers there were
barely a score of listeners who would
qualify as voters. Some forty women

POLITICS IN
THE JURY BOX

The Star has the following comment
on Fridays extraordinary proceed
ings:
The row raised by the Kamuela jury
in Judge Gears court is regarded by
very many people as a stroke of Home
Rule politics,
The jury, on which there are some of
the leaders of the party, took occasion
to bring up a race issue and create a
lot of feeling which may be used to fan
race prejudice among Hawaiians and
make them flock to the standard of
Wilcox. A small item in the morning
paper was taken up and used as a text
for a lengthy TRADE and some of the
statements made sounded almost like
Home Rule speeches.
John Wise almost wanted blud, and
Charley Motley, who is not a member
of the jury concerned, addressed the
court with a statement subsequently
contradicted by Deputy Attorney Gen
eral Peters which was designed to ac-
cuse the haoles OF opposing natives.
James II. Boyd, another leading
Home Rule politician, was in court and
was heard to refer to the matter as a
political issue. Jimmie secured
large pad of writing paper and pro-
ceeded to make notes. or write a speech
in court. 1t took him a long time to
finish it. 1t will be good campaign
material.
The jury of this term in Gears court
contains remarkable percentage of
Home Rule politicians, and from the
opening of the term there have been
indications and rumons of antagonism
among them to the Attorney Generals
department,
The row in court today will be used
on every platform, to substantiate
claim that whites do not trust Hawai-
ians on juries, which is the issue the
political Jurors were trying to make In
court this morning. 1t is a fact, how
ever, that there has bsen scarcely
jury accepted since annexation, on
which the races We're not about evenly
divided.
"The whole proposition" said a can
didate on the Republican ticket, lis
to get Hawaiian votes. The re-
marks of the jurors We're altogether
outside of the case on trial and even

two weeks ago. The jurors had taken
