HENRY WILL

''There will be no trouble whatever
about the transfer OF the police depart
ment," said Acting-Governor Atkinson
yesterday II will order High Sheriff
Henry to turn over the station, the
force. the patrol wagon and the para
phernalia to Sheriff Brown of oahu.
And he will turn them over. There will
be nothing more to 1t. The transfer will
be made SO quietly, in fact, that II the
people did not read the Advertiser on
Saturday morning. they would not know
that there had been any change.
1T is my desire that the police de-
partment should be kept running right
along as though there had been no in
terruption or change OF the present
order Whatever property 1t is neces-
sary for the Sheriff and the High Sher-
if both to use, will be used Jointly by

: I'VE want the counties to perform all

citizens nor of the attorneys were CIV
en-, and so the story lacked In some de-
tails. The Supervisors were not in
clined to pay a great deal of attention
to it. anyhow.
1t was in 1872 that the Hawaiian gov
eminent requested the Prussian war
ministry to send competent army
musician to instruct the Hawaiian Gov
eminent band. Professor Henry Ber-
ger had passed his examination as
army bandmaster in 1871 and was one
of twelve summoned for closed tests
to decide upon the successful master
Professor Berger was chosen and left
for Honolulu at once, arriving in Jure,
1879, the ruling moparch at that time
being Kamehameha V.
Professor Berger found twelve native
musicians who had been under the
tuition of. Mr.. Northcote and also
M. Medina. He saw that there was
a deal of native talent but that it
needed an immense amount Of drilling.
He went to work with a will, making
his first public appearance at the
Fourth Of July celebration Of that year,
and giving the first OF that series of
concerts, which is still going on, at
Emma Square July 8, 1872.
From this time on the history of the
band has been one Of progression. Up
on the death of Kamehameha in De-
cember, 1872 the music makers found
even greater patron in Lunalilo, who
succeeded him. The new king was very
fond of music and had the band about
him whenever possible. During his last
illness, when he was conveyed to Kali
lua, Hawaii. he took the band, which
had Increased to eighteen members
with him. and 1t cheered his last hours
Each change in rulers seemed to bt
for the better, for upon the accession
OF King Kalakaua in 1874. there sprung
up that interest in the band which wal
destined to make 1t truly famous
Throughout his entire life he was th'
consistent friend Of his musicians
During 1876 Professor Berger's term o
furlough being up, he returned to Prus
STA, reported to his home government
and again entered the army as band
master He had married here and hi
wife could not stand the severe climat
SO he left the service of Emperor VIII
helm I and returned to make Hawai-
his home.
He at once entered upon the servic
of building up the band with renewe
vigor. He introduced the higher grad
of orchestral instruments and had eacl
member add to his capacity by learn
ing to play a stringed instrument
There were three years Of hard wor
in this development, and 1t was no
until there had been many trials an
many failures that the band, about tn
middle of the eighties, took its presen
form of both band and orchestra.
1t was In 1888 that the band was Civ

Since President SID Eliot. Of Harvard, 1eyeled his

vision of rules. Early in the winter, Walter
Camp came forward with the idea Of making
ten yards on downs, which would turn the game
into kicking contest of little interest. Now
comes proposition to legalize the forward pass.
This would, without doubt, almost revolu-
tionize the game. It would open it up to a

the line, or out Of it,: would play a big part,
and until the side regulations are fixed It is
impossible to guess what would result from the
forward pass. It might call back the heavy
mass plays and it might produce an open game
with wide range of latitude for trick play.
The rules committee has discussed the idea:
All were present save Stagg, of Chicago, and
he has written a small volume Sand forwarded 1t
to the board. The committee meets again soon.
Minneapolis is one of the hotbeds of football
enthusiasm. Locally, there has been little
demand for open play, The Minneapolis fans
know much football and follow the games close.

ii Crookston Mimi, April 22--Training jackrab-

of Norwood Davies, managing editor of the

day last summer, a Davies saw a large jackrabbit
running even with the train, and the idea of
training jacks for racing purposes first presented
itself. Since then he has been gathering spec-
mems, and has been deyoting much of his time
to training the animals. HVa$:
! He now has two jackrabbits trained SO they
obey his commands fairly WELL and every nice
day when he has time to spare, takes these two
outside of the city limits of Crookston about two
miles and has them indulge in a race with in
coming trains. AN assistant is stationed at the
end OF the course and at signal from this
assistant the jackrabbits stop speeding, allowing

when going at a high: rate, of speed and oc-

The animals become restless and nervous when
