AMERICA GOOD ENOUGH,

American as applied to whatever be-
longs to this country His argument
was the old one. that Great Britain is

numerous other countries have o right
to be called Americans,

were intended for a capital Joke. We
are led to that conclusion by the fact
that he suggested "Usona'-the first

to relatives, and proceeds:

tons off his coat, but the sergeant hit
Yanko, and made him stand in the
snow and sew them on again. We call
Yanko lobster as he got very red,

KAMEHAMEHAS CARRY OFF
THE FIELD DAY HONORS

1 The Boys Field grounds were OPEN
ed yesterday afternoon under auspi-
cious circumstances, an immense crowd
of spectators witnessing long series
| of interesting track and field events.
The broad field with its cinder track,
enclosing fine turf field upon which
the events were given, was viewed from
a eommodious grandstand, which gave
an excellent opportunity to watch each
event as it was reeIed off,
The attendance was all that could
be expected for the opening up of an
athletic field which should prove a boon
to the athleticalIy-inclined people of
Honolulu. Through the untiring efforts
of Theodore Richards and other kindred
spirits the city has been given a fine
athletic ground, where the youth of the
community may exercise, grow strong
and sturdy, and possibly break records.
Secretary of the Territory A. L. C.
Atkinson was present and occupied
special stand erected for himself and
friends. and from this point of vantage
he gave the trophies to the winners of
the events. #ai
The committee in charge of the Field
Day comprised Allan Dunn, chairman;
Stanley Livingston, secretary; w. A.
Anderson, W. H. Babbitt, Lieut. New
ton, U. S. A, and Fred Young. The
field and track officials were:
Referee, Percy Benson; clerk of
course, Lieut.. Newton; scorer. w. A.
Anderson; timekeepers, F. G. Atherton,
]. L. Hopwood; judges. A. T. Brock, H.
w. Forbes. Lieut.. Behr, u. S. A; an
nouncer, J.. L. Woods.
Events for the track and field were
alternately run off. and the crowd upon
the field surged back and forth that
they might lose none of the interesting
developments. "A large number of car
riages were inside the enclosure, and
beneath a special tent the Hawaiian !
band played during the afternoon A |
slight drizzle occasionally dampened the
athletes and the spectators but was not
sufficient to drive any one away.
An amusing incident occurred when |
the Mature Man came upon the field
and essayed to put the shot and per-
form in divers other ways, causing con-
siderable fun He showed himself an
adept in walking on his hands.
The Kamehamehas took away the |
honors in nearly all events. They piled |
UP general average OF about 751z per
cent to 3S5z for the Punahous. The Ha- I
'waiians excelled in all track and field |
events and most of the prizes We're pre-
scented to the Kamehameha boys by |
Secretary Atkinson
The following is the result of .lle con-
tests in all events. with percentages
gained by contesting entries:

Vaudeville Season Draws to a Gloss

The Nawn Vaudeville season is now
drawing to close, the company leav-
ing on Wednesday for their next stand
which is at Sydney. Australia.
They have a specially attractive pro-
gram for their farewell bill and will
doubtless draw big houses for their
last nights. There was a large and
appreciative crowd at the Orpheum
last evening. Nawn making a tremen-
dous hit with his Politician localized

Pete" Baker, Nawn and the ."Train
Robbery" film shared the biggest hon.
ors though the "Hiawatha Trouba-
dours' with their new "Anona' and
the Musical Johnsons in new selections,
came in for their share of public ap-
pcoval. The whole program is clever
and attractive and those who are look
ing for a nights entertainment would
do well to go to the Orpheum.

Ernest was a Stanford man

Who gathered life by gathering
Bananas from the tree.
Few clothes he bore upon his back
While both his feet were bare
His pants were cut off at the knees
He never cut his hair.

At dusk he wheels to bed
He'll never get wheels off his mind
They're always in his head.
