The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1905-04-10

Four pretty well tagged young men
made their appearance at Haleiwa
about half-past two o'clock yesterday
afternoon, having walked all the way
from Honolulu, Just for the fun of
the thing" AS they were mostly rail-
road men. it is self-evident it was not
necessary for them to go so far in
that manner, unless they chose. They
We're A. H. Tarleton, J. J. Downing
3. a. Robbins and Jess Dutot. They
went by way of the California colony,
and the distance of about thirty miles
was covered in nine and one-half
hours. After a bath in the ocean they
appeared to be fresh enough for a. re-
turn walk to Honolulu, but evidently
were not so disposed, for they return
ed to town by the HaIeiwa special last
night.
On being complimented ON their feat
and feet-they modestly disclaimed
they had especially distinguished
themselves, as some time ago another
party of young men, the Wall boys
among them, L believe, had walked
over the same road in much less time
But the climax was reached when 1
was told afterwards, of a party of
ladies and gentlemen who had walked
all the way around this island in three
days. These are pretty good stunts in
the pedestrian line, and show, if any
thing can, that this climate does not
enervate people to any alarming ex-
tent, the plants of knockers to the
contrary notwithstanding
Haieiwa draws people like a load
stone, and when once there it seems
not SO easy to shake off the hypnotism
or whatever influence it is, that draws
and holds. L guess it is a combina-
ton of influences-moderate charges,
delicious air beautiful scenery, bright
friendly people, many out-of-door at
fractions, and perhaps last but by no
means least, the friendly winning man.
ner in which Manager Bidgood and his
estimable wife receive their guests, and
make them feel at home-that the place
is theirs. And that implied proffer of
ownership makes people feel seIf-satis-
fed, don't you know. even While they
realize that when they have squared
matters with the man behind the desk,
and said their au revoirs. that then
they relinquished their temporary
ownership in favor of the fortunate
people who are to follow them at Ha-
leiwa.
Automobiling around the island is
getting to be a fad. with a rest spell
at Haleiwa, of course, and Manager
Bidgood has had oonveniences proviu-
ed for these flyers, in the way of a
pit for the repair of machines, and a
supply of oil, gasoline and the ct
ceteras.
The fate of the Examiner men, Mr..
Dent H. Robert and Mr.. Kidd who
started around the island yesterday
morning, on a dangerous trip" be-
hind span of fiery steeds, is no long
er in doubt. They reached Haleiwa
yesterday afternoon, but finding the
hotel full, and there being doubts as
to their getting rooms for the night.

dinner at the hotel came to town on
the special last night.
