OAHU TEAM
IMPROVES
Blue and White Gain
Supporters for Polo
honors.

The Maui and Oahu teams had a
practice at Moanalua yesterday and the
locals showed up surprisingly well.
The field is now in excellent shape
and has entirely recovered from the eff
fects of the recent rains.
In their last two outings the despis-
ed Oahu ponies have appeared to ex-
cellent advantage and the team as a
whole has showed vastly improved
form. Certain it is that they are leav-
ing no stone unturned, as far as prac-
tice goes, to retain the polo champion
ship of the territory
The Maui team is devoting their at
tention to goal practice.
Interest in the first game promises
to be at fever point tomorrow
Manager Fleming is making every
effort to provide bus accommodation
for the journey between the end of the
car-line and the scene of the contest
The busses will be stationed at the
top of the hill past the car terminus
Tickets for the game may be obtain
ed at the end of the car line and in
order to prevent 1.-The vehicles being
flooded with undesirables, no one will
be allowed to ride in the buggies I'M
less he can produce a ticket of adj
mission to the ground.

A Football Fable.

The fullbaek seized the ball. tucked
it under his arm and started madly
down the field.
His enthusiasm knew no bounds.
The referee blew his whistle.
And the fullback was called back to
where his enthusiasm had carried him
out of bounds.

Noted Autoi, Is Hurt.

Webb Jay of Cleveland was probably
, fatally injured at Buffalo on August l5,
in the ten-mile automobile race. At
the three-quarters of the fourth mile
jays machine crashed through the
fence, down an embankment of fifteen
caused the accident is not known. 1t is
believed, however, that Jay was blind
ed by dust and steered into the fence.
He was driving at about mile min
ute rate when the accident happened.
Jay was racing with Lyttle and Bur
man. At the quarters turn Jay
was third and the dust cloud of the
other two cars hung over him. Just at
the three-quarters the track had been
banked with dirt taken from the ex-
cavation, which had left a deep hole
just beyond the fence. Heavy rains
had transformed the hole into a deep
pond.
Just as Jay rounded the turn his car
crashed through the fence, down the
water. Jay, unconscious, would have
drowned had not two spectators sit
ting on the fence nearby gone TO his
rescue and dragged him out. He was
taken to hospital, where it was found
that nine ribs were broken, one of his
lungs punetured and his right femur
was fractured.

an officer of election, he had stuffed the
ballot box in the Eleventh ward. had
marked between 200 and 800 votes and

Not until 1902 did Congress appropriate

There are four panels i'll relief in each
door The panels of the left-hand door
represent the massacre at Wyoming, the
battle of Lexington, the presentation of
a flag to Colonel Moultrie, of South

depicted on the panels of the right

1-Ke adding of third screw, which
will call for the addition of another en-
gine. is reported to have been definitely
decided upon by the Bureau of Construc-
tion. This system, which was intio
duced into the nava by Rear-Admiral
Melville, although looked on with great
disfavor by foreign naval constructors,
has proved great success on the Colum-
ba and Minneapolis. One of its ad-
vantages is that in cruising great econ
omy is attained, in that when only mod
crate speed is required the central engine
alone is used. If high rate OF speed
is desired the two wing engines, and it
necessary all three, can be operated.
Another innovation under cOnsidera-
ton is in the utilization of II and TO inch
guns as a complete battery. This has
never been tried in any navy. There is

TO START SOUTH OCTOBER II.
President Roosevelt Possvones Exirs Session
Until November.

Washington, D. c. (SpeciaD.-It was
officially announced at the White House
that President Roosevelt would depart
on his Southern trip October II. He
will be absent from the city about II
days, returning about week before the
November elections
This will necessitate a postponement
of the proposed extra session of Con-
greSs, which will probably be called to
meet Monday, November I3, immediate
ly after the State elections have taken
place. The definite announcement set
ties the fact that the extra session will
not be called for October, and will not
be held until the middle of the follow
ing month.
The trip will be made over the South
ern Railway and preliminary arrange
ments were made by Col A. r. An
drews, vice president of the road, and
Mr.. l.. S. Brown, the general agent,
who had a conference with Secretary
Loeb
The journey will, in addition to Vir-
ginia, the Carolnas and Georgia, in
clude Louisiana. Florida and Arkansas,
which are the only States that Mr..
Roosevelt has not visited since he became
President of the country. Details for
the trip have not been finally determined.
but it is understood that the tentative
arrangement includes stops at Richmond,
Va; Raleigh and Charlotte, n. c.; Jack
sonville and perhaps Tampa, Fla; At
lanta, Ca; Birmingham. Montgomery,
Tuskegee and Mobile. Ala; New Or
leans, La, and Little Rock, Ark
The stop at Richmond will be the
only important one in Virginia. The
President has been invited 70 visit Nor
folk and will do so when he has had
the opportunity, but will be unable TO do
so on this journey. AT Roswell. Ga, he
will visit the old homestead of his moth
er, and at Tuskegee, Ala, he will visit
the Booker Washington Institute.
A delegation from Charlotte, n. c.,
called on the President to urge him TO
spend a day there. He told his callers
that so long a stop would not be posi-
bic, but promised to extend his cordial
rectings TO the people of Charlotte. The
delegation was headed by Mayor s. S.
McNich and included Daniel A. Tomp-
kins, r. M. Miller, Jr., B. d. Heath,
George Stephens, T. S. Franklin, Heriot
Clarkson and G.. c. Huntington.
