BOOMERANG THROWING.
People Of Washington Taken Up
~ with Novel Sport That smaclks
~ Il Of Danger. t's3

Throwing boomerangs-not the POI
Htical kind, but the real ones-is COM
Ing to be a popular sport in Washing
ton, or rather In the suburbs of Wash
sington, for boomerang throwing in
large cities is nearly as dangerous as.
rifle practice, says report from that
city. s:3s r
a The Washington Boomerang club,
with membership Of respectable pro-
portions, has been organized, and
grounds for practice have been Sc
cured and the. new sport is in full
blast.
The men who have gone into the
fun say q person may become just as
much Of boomerang crank as a base
ball crank, or fishing crank or q golf
crank. X 4 .ia.is -. -; ~
Awhile ago. Prof. Walker. Of Cam
bridge, England, who has been in for
nearly every kind of ut-of-door
sports, went to Washington and told
some scientific men there that he knew
NO better fun than boomerang-throw.
Ing, and that in addition to the physi-
cal exertion necessary, the training
given the eye and nerves was q little
better than anything he knew Of.
More than that, Prof. Walker had
some boomerangs with him, and he
took the gentlemen to field IN the
suburbs Of Washington and showed
them how the trick is done.
The sport took instantly, and the.
scientific men went providing around
s1umber yards looking TOR white ash to
make boomerangs of.
IL 1T seems that rude Australian will
so into a store and buy boomerangs
by. the dozen, but that is not the ETH
quette of the game as imported from
Cambridge to Washington.
Il, More than half the skill in the sport
is in making the boomerangs. It is
made Of white ash, steamed and bent
into the desired shape.
asOf course, the Washington players
are not expert boomerang makers yet,
but they have got along so far in the
art that any one of them can make
. boomerang so wonderfully con-
structed that no mortal can tell where
It will go, when thrown with great
force.
After awhile. through the exercise
Of much patience. they hope to get the
business down to so fine point that
the boomerang will do what is ex-
pected Of. sit-describe certain move
ments in the air and return to the feet

part Of the players, boomerang-thr

GOLD CANNOT BUY

There is something far better than
wealth,
Which men strive for and hoard TIL
they. die:
For the life that Is blessed with good
health
wears a crown that no riches can buy;
And the mind of contentment and ease,
Neither harassed by trouble nor care,
Has rest in its haven OF peace.
All unknown to the proud millionaire.
There is that which the world with its
gold
with Its grandeur. and glory and might
Is unable to give or withhold
for Its pains do its pleasures all blight
The good heart that Is filed with puro
love.
And that feels for another's deep woe,
Has the source OF its JOY from above.
A fount that never ceases to flow.
Better than wealth is the mind that
scars.
And delights I'm its search for truth:
That all the wide range of knowledge
explores.
A. help and example to youth.
The mines that yield us Jewels most rare
Are devoid OF gem the most pure;
And virtue set In her graces all fair
Is jewel alone to endure.
There is something far better than gold.
That will rival the most precious stone,
conscience correct is of value untold
A compass that will guide to the throne
III we list to it's dictates of right
we can face the unknown without fear;
And the angel of death. in his might,
Will cause not a sigh nor a tear

with Its sickening flicker. Gradu.
ally this became more intense. Then
there was a glare az if the universe
had burst into flame. The hills
seemed to rock in the explosion
which followed. Those who grow
frightened at the puny manifesto
tions of nature in northern thun-
derstorm, cannot afford TO cavii at
an apparent extravaganza of lam
guage essential to n word picture OF
tropical hurricane.
AS night came on the storm in
creased in fury. They gave Vim
cent and Pence up as lost. and never
expected to see them alive again
All night long they crouched under
the ledge of rock; wet and hungry
and sad at heart. The crash of fall
ing timber, the rumble of tumbling
rocks, the incessant rever beration of
thunder, the lashing of the rain, and
the spectacle of a sky afame with
writing skein of lightning made an
impression on their minds never to
be effaced.
But at five o'clock there was a
lull in the storm. There was a faint
CLEAN of the dawn of day. Nature
mustered her forces for one more
terrific blast. When exhausted. the
light broke through the clouds. As
by magic the hurricane was over
The wind died to- refreshing
breeze. OF n rudden, the foliage on
the ridges across the bay was radi-
ant with sunshine.
Sidney and Mr.. Kent came from
behind the sheltering rock. They pre-
scented n sorry sight Their duck
suits were streaked with mud and
their faces tense and drawn by ex-
element and lack of sleep. They
washed their hands and faces in the
lake, and then climbed the ridge,
where they obtained an unbrol1en
view of the bay. To their delight
they saw the figures of four men
on the stone pier. Sidney waved his
hat and was greeted by an answer
ing signal. The people of the bunga-
low shouted across the water, and
Sidney and Mr.. Kent yelled in re-
turn. Mr. Morton. Mr.. Carmody and
his companions speedily built and
launched new raft and were soon
rowing to the relief of the missing
ones.
Where are Pence and Vincent ?"
shouted Mr.. Morton, as the raft
neared the shore.
They did not return" said Sid
ncy. Il am afraid they were lost in
the storm
Sidney would not listen to the
proposition that he return with Mr..
Kent to the bungalow. Though wet
and hungry, he joined Mr.. Morton
and plunged into the forest to find
the missing men, dead or alive. He
was glad to learn that the bungalow
had survived the hurricane with
small damage. and that none Of the
occupants were injured.

and counsel, for the inculcation of a
better feeling among. those engaged in
the competitive struggle for business,
for the inciting of a public, non parti-

advancement of our civic interests, for
the improvement and beautifying Of
our city, the encouragement and in
crease of a stable citizen population,
in word, for the public good, and it

well take pride in.
Following the custom of the parent
organization in San Francisco, the AS
sociation has arranged this, it's annual
banquet, at a time when, most for
tunately, they are able to welcome to
their board distinguished fellow citi-
zens, as their guests.
To the gentlemen of the Army and

share with you the glory and yield to
you the honor, which the two noble
arms of the service have done so much

Mr.. Toastmaster, Mr.. President,

great responsibility upon itself when it
assigns to me so important a toast as
Our Territory" 1t would be better
if it were to assign the toast to one
with more talent and ability to speak.
In that it is an honor. am proud to
speak. Where in this wide world can
you find six hundred square miles of

Where can you find such mountains,
such rugged mountains, decked with

Where can you find more beautiful
valleys filled with SO great a variety
of beautiful ferns, where there is no
reptile or lurking danger of any kind?
Where can you find in this world more
fertile plains, where can you find more
beautiful shores, laced with our coral
reefs? Where can you find an ocean
which is more varied in color or such
varieties of color than in our own?
Where, ask, can you sit under the
palms and the moonlight, by an ocean
which is in eXpanse wider than any
other on the globe without fear of
danger, but here in Hawaii? Where,
gentlemen, can you find population of
$4,000 people that is willing to tax it
self to the extent of two million dol
lars and over every year for the sup
port of its government and the internal
improvements it desires? (Applause)
