KAMEHAMEHA DAY WILL
Be CELEBRATED
Continued from page -

; The game Weller will have a host OF
fanciers, not only on account OF form
1 but as well that he has made the run
ming before, and each time carried the
kawananakwoa colors to victory. The
horse is short of work, but withaI is
: doing well, as we'll as usual in train
=. ing. If he takes kindly to the going,
there seems nothing else to it. despite
the fact that the Hilo hackers of Car
ter Harrison and the local admirers of
i, Racine Murphy. are confident of win
ming. Thomas will be up on Weller
M'Auliffe on Murphy and Piggott on
Harrison
1t seems likely that of the harness
events the 2:1s class will be full of in
terest and may prove as surprising as
any other. Oak Grove has some sup
port on account of the soreness of
both Wayboy and Sambo, but there
are hackers for both of those good
, horses, on the ground that the pace
H., is not expected to be too fast for them
however, they start. The 2:30 class
will probably bring out something as
| good as pa and viii be an inter-
esting race. The Hawaiian breds will
! race we'll, Thelma being a prohibitive
d IdN he SeHlteInSH driving race
should go to Abdine if the conditions
are right.
| WILL RACE AGAINST TIME.
| In place of the free for all, which
would have been an empty event, a
purse of $3.50 has been arranged for
Cyclone to make a try against the
track record, held by Waldo ]. This
is 2:1S 2-5, and to get down to it the
RI1pl< Wonder. will no 70 la haf
ter mile than he has yet shown. One
. thing that he has done is the very
fastest eighth on a local track, and
again the best quarter Some men
claim to have watched him in a half
at 1:04 and he made a trial mile last
week showing 2:16. He will be accom-
panied by running mate, and will get
mighty close to the watch.
The other running races promise to |
be duels between Bruner a good old
animal, taken out of a hack year
back, and Virgie A, a racer which has
been seen often before, and which has
taken some good races. Mollie Connors |
will not be seen, as the little mare was |
only put in the sprints to fill, and found
that the other entries in the six fur
long had been taken out, as they have
to go into the mile and a half as well
as the mile.
The appearance of the park will be
found to be changed somewhat. The
old boxes beyond the grand stand have
all been removed. The space has been
fenced and the appearance is much bet
ter. The stand has been cleaned and
garnished, and there is some bunting
in evidence in the preparation for the
people. The grounds Will be much
more attractive as the under brush has
all been cleared away, and the view
will be pretty. across the quarter
stretch where there will be nothing in
the way. The fact that the Rapid Tran
sit cars are running right TO the track
will certainly mean that the crowds
about will be greater than ever before,
but it by no means assures great ,
er receipts. There will be a greater ,
crowd on the rails, party due to the
fact that the soldiers are in camp i'm ,
Waikiki of the track. The
clearing up of the fringe of trees about
the course will probably cost the Joe
kew Club $3.50 in lost admissions to the
stand. v
