The English Turf.

Everything points to the approach
ing contest for the Doncaster st. Leger
proving highly interesting one, if it
does not reach the pitch of the sensa-
tional The fact of the French sports
man, NJ Edmond Blanc, having sue
ceeded in vanquishing the Derby win
ner, Cicero, in the Eclipse Stakes, and
that he has second powerful string
to his bow with Jardy, shows rather
clearly that the opposition from across
the Channel is likely to be pretty stiff,
and the Britishers will have to be at
their best to Withstand the assault.
Cherry Lass, who won the One Thous-
and Guineas and Oaks Stakes, is regard
ed as in every way fitted to hold classic
honors, and it is worthy of remark that
she ran the distance of the Oaks, which
is similar to that of the Derby, in
raster time than did Cicero, who won
the last mentioned race. 1t may be
remarked that the ST. Leger last year
went down to the credit of FLY
pretty Polly, when a fresh time
record was entered in the records. The

POLO TEAM
SELECTED
Base ball Games to Be
Postponed Until
Labor Day.

Polo and baseball will not clash on
Saturday next, at least it has as good
as been decided that way, and folks
will now have a chance to witness
both the contests for the baseball and
polo championships, which from q
sporting viewpoint is eminently fit
ting and proper.
Saturday will see the first of the
great polo games and the H. A. c.
Elks baseball struggle will take place
on the following Monday, which is La
Dor Day. and will be we'll marked by
such an important struggle.
Tournament Manager Fleming hustled
round among the business houses yes
terday to such good effect that the
following promised to observe Monday
as a holiday:
E. o. Hall & Son, Pacific Hardware
Co., Alexander & Baldwin, Castle &
Cooke, Brewer & Co., H. Hackfeld &
Co., Phillips & Co., Honolulu Iron
Works, Theo. Davies & Co, Irwin &
Co., F. L. Waldron, McCabe, Hamilton
& Rennie, Rubenstein & CO., Allen &
Robinson, J. A. NJ. Johnson & Co., Will
der & Co., and others.
Mr. Fleming will continue the good
work today.
Last night it was conceded by base
ball men that the list of firms promis-
ing to close on Monday would result in
the postponement of Saturdays games.
The League will take final action in
the matter at their meeting on Thurs
day night.
The Oahu team which will contest
the polo championship with Maui has
been definitely decided upon and will
be as follows:
C. Cooke, No. /; Harold Castle, No.
p; w. II. Dillingham;, No. 3; G. p.
Judd, No. 4.
Both teams practised at Moanalua
yesterday afternoon, the visitors TAX
ing the field at $3.50 and the Oahuans
working out an hour and quarter
later.
Every preparation is being made for
the reception of visitors and automo-
biles will be properly cared for in a
corner of the field so that ladies go
ing to Moanalua in rigs need have no
aDDrehenSi0n of their horses being
scared by the indiscriminate careering
of the large number of machines GER
tain to be at the games.
In order to while away the time be-
tween periods and keep the public in
terested, there will be ball and mallet
race on Saturday afternoon.
A polo ball, to take place after the
tournament, is being talked of.

tion to any notable extent and the
gooo thus done stimulates not only the
game itself but sport generally
In the past, several inter-island polo
tournaments have been held, and
Oahu has. so far, always emerged from
the struggle with the championship,
Kauai and Maui have both been van
pushed and now, with commendable
grit and perseverance. The Maui
team is with US again, intent upon re-
versing previous decisions.
The coming contests are attracting
the attention they deserve and if
Oahu's colors are fated to be at last
trained in the dust, the visitors will re-
eeive tht heartiest congratulations of
the crowds which will go out to see
the Maui men again attempt TO lift the
trophy.

Rivalry in Sport.

The coming polo tournament between
the teams of Maui and Oahu, upon
which hangs the championship of the
territory, is Of especial interest from
the standpoint of sport economics as
relating to the peculiar conditions ex-
listing here.
Here in the islands, as is the case the
world over, where a handful of white
men are gathered together, sport COM
mands the attention, not only of the
actual participants, but of that great
section of every community which
loves a horserace, a baseball game. or
any other exhibition where the quail
ties of skill and endurance are put to
the test and the mighty principle Of
fair play prevails.
The first named division of the world
of sport must perforce cater to the
second, and competition alone nour-
ishes and maintains it. Bereft of riv-
airy the exercises of field and tide be-
come merely automatic and tiresome
alike to spectator and athlete.
This is especially true in Hawaii
where the dangerous climate does
not tempt one to active exercises for
it's own sake. Were it not for the
quickening spirit of competition local
sport would quickly become dead let
ter. AS it is antagonism in some
branches of sport is ali too limited and
circumscribed. Take cricket, for in
stance, and the spectacle OF the same
men opposing each other week after
week is anything but an enlivening
one. Given a series of test matches
with the elevens of other islands, if
they existed, and the standard of play
would be greatly bettered and the
measure of public interest in the Brit
ishers national game, inestimably in
creased.
So with the various other pastimes
that find favor here. Baseball -four
ishes because there are enough teams
in the senior league to keep interest
sustained during a protracted season,
and to furnish an exhaustless oppor-
tunity for fascinating revelations of the
glorious uncertainty of sport.
Jnter-Island gaYaes are. good, but
inter island tournaments are i'm
better as far as the bene-
fitting of sport is concerned. They
furnish a taste of that healthy rivalry
which stirs nations to remarkable
pitches of enthusiasm during interna-
tional contests.
Polo is unfortunately the only game
which provokes inter-island competi-
