consider it an affair of honor to main-

lasted till Feb. 8. This is the first annual
sport meeting on such a big, scale, ever
held in Norway, and it is something of a
copy of the Swedish "Nordiska spelen.'
The program of the work included skating
races, ski-running and sxi-jumping,
horse racing in the different varieties,
lawn tennis, gymnastics. ETC. - =
Every day had something of interest to
offer. The weather was, however, some
what unfavorable for. winter sport, as
the thermometer hardly showed below the
freezing point the whole week; on the
contrary, the, temperature was such that
nearly all the snow has melted in the
streets. But as we had plenty Of it on
the ground beforehand, the mild weather
did not interfere much with carrying out
the program. .a \

The two cross country ski runs, which
form part of the combined runs, were
clean victories for the NOrwegians, while
some of the Swedess showed that they are

sport. These runs, respectively II and so

IRISHMEN WILL
HAVE BANQUET

A meeting OF enthusiastic Irishmen to
arrange for the celebration of st. Pat
frick's day was held at Waverley Hall
last night, being called to order by
Charles Mccarthy, chairman of the
committee on the celebration last year.
Mr.. Mccarthy was voted into the chair
at last nights meeting, and S. w
Crook was made secretary. 1t was at
first proposed by Charles Creighton
that a committee of seven be appointed
to arrange for a celebration, such COM
mittee to receive suggestions from the
meeting as to the manner of the cele-
bration, but on the suggestion of S. F.
ChiIIingworth, backed by the chair, Mr..
Creighton withdrew his motion. and the
sense of the meeting was taken prior to
the appointment of the committee.
The chair then called on all the gen.
tlemen present to express their views
on the matter under consideration, and
bar the fact that there were some ex-
pressions to the effect that the celebra-
ton should be extended so as to in
cIude the women and children, it was
the unanimous voice that, as last years |
banquet had been most eminently sue
cessful and creditable, it would be ad-
visable to repeat that celebration this |
year.
Accordingly, Mr.. Creighton moved |
that the anniversary should be observ
ed this year by a banquet, arrange
ments for which were to be made by a
committee to be appointed by the chair.
This carried, and T. 1. Dillon moved
that a committee of seven be appointed
by the chair for that purpose, the
chairman and secretary to be members
Of the committee.
This likewise carried. and the COM
mittee was appointed, consisting of
Charles Mccarthy, S. w. Crook. T. L.
Dillon, Charles F. Chillingworth, John
Hughes, w. F. Irving and J. c. Quinn.
rhe meeting then adjourned until next
at 7:30 p. M, when the COM
nittee will report progress.
The committee of arrangements held ,
meeting after the adjournment, and
appointed the following sub-commit- :.
ees. first electing Charles Mccarthy

LEWIS REYNOLDS
DOES HEROIC ACT

Lewis Reynolds, son of C. 3. Rey-
nolds of Honolulu, was one Of the five
heroic men who braved an ocean trip
in whaleboat to take the news from
the disabled U. S. Collier Alexander to
Nassau. The news reached Washington
on February 16, First Mate Adamson
being the bearer. The Alexander was
on her way from PinchiIinaue, west
coast of Mexico, to Norfolk, Va, and in
the Caribbean Sea on February 10
broke her shaft. Adamson and four
companions, among whom were Rey-
nolds, who went aboard the vessel as a
clerk while she was in Honolulu, took
the whaleboat of the Alexander to try
and make Nassau and were picked up
by the schooner d. H. Rivers which
transferred them to the steamship Ad-
miral Schley bound for Delaware
The captain called for volunteers
shortly after the accident to make the
Journey in the whaleboat, and young
Reynolds was one of the first to re-
;pond. The seas were rough and the
Wind blowing a gale and few of the
ailors cared to risk their lives in this |
-enturesome undertaking. The first |
nate offered to lead if men would man |
he oars, and then four men stepped |
onward. Almost every sea encountered |
roke over the boat and kept the men |
usy bailing. They were exposed to the
lements for two days and two nights,
'hen they sighted a sail on February
2, and they were picked up just at
ightfall
