WIRELESS GOES WRONG
and TROUBLE FOLLOWS

Manager Decew of the Wireless Tele-
graph Co., told an Advertiser man yes
terday that he thinks there must have
been a very heavy blow off Hawaii
recently.
On Monday a message was received
from Puako ON the big island, that a
fierce gale was blowing. Since then
there hasn't been a tap.
There is something very wrong with
the Hawaii connection" said Decew,
''or else the damage would have been
repaired in a very short time. I am
afraid the gale must have carried
away the spirit or the galmast''
There hasn't been a delayed mes
sage before since July 4th." remarked
Decew, ''and it's too bad the good
record has been broken"

4 Fine SEA YABh
From THESt Waters

An appearance of new island in the
Japanese seas calls to mind other rapid
rising of land in the ocean. An island
suddenly came to light off the coast of
Sicily, remained for two months and as
quickly disappeared Sabrina, near the
Azores, retired from public life before
it was fairly chartered. The Gulf of
Mexico has witnessed the advent and
subsistence of small islands. These up
heavals of the bed of the ocean sug-
gest all sorts of mysteries connected
with the unknown depths.
Our ship was out twenty-three days
from Manila to the Sandwich Islands.
1t was a silent, dead-black night. The
lead showed deep sea. Suddenly we felt
as if we had grounded. The mate sug-
gested a sunken wreck. but the skip
per stuck to the theory, of earthquake.
Subsequent events showed that he was
right.
Daybreak revealed low and misty
sky. We lay as if becalmed in the
midst of an oily sea, strangely discoi-
ored in patches. Suddenly the water
trembled. i can use no other word.
The ship rolled. and in the distance rose
a huge, balIoon-shaped mass of vapor.

slightest sound, but a long line of

everything in town on four wheels
would be out at the games. Several
tallyho parties are being organized.
Ten minute periods of actual play
win govern both games, time being de-
Quoted when the ball goes out Of
bounds.
The Maui team showed up well in the
practice on Monday, but had no opposi-
ton so 1t was not easy to get correct
line on their form. The Oahus had two
teams on the field and team No. 2
seemed to be giving the tournament
players all they wanted on several oc-
casions.
Maui are favorite at sodds ranging
from evens to to 1 on. And at that
takers of the short end are scarce.
The visitors are the better horsed
and this is largely responsible for their
favoritism. The Oahuans know the
game well, however, and their perfect
knowledge of the Moanalua ground
should stand them in good stead in the
games to be played.
A tap with a mallet which would
score a goal on Maui would probably
send the ball too far or not far enough
on the local ground. This point Is
greatly in favor of the hoinesters and,
combined with their, playing, may more
than offset the discrepancy between the
equines OF the opposing quartet.
There is question of just how the
championship is to be decided. Two
games are scheduled to be played and
it is quite possible that each may be
won by a different team. The rules OF
the tournament should definitely have
called for. one game for the champion
ship or the best two games out of
three.
As it stands at present two games
are to be played which practically
means that the winners of honors in
chance to regain their laurels in the
second, the .victors having to fight to
retain what they have already won
and the championship practically
hanging upon the result of the second
game.
The question will be decided one way
or another before the first game. Sew
eral of the players are in favor of the
championship going with the first game
and the second contest being Of pure
ly friendly nature. This is not likely
to find favor with the promoters of the
tournament, however, for were the plan
adopted, the value of the second game
as drawing card would be greatly inn
paired. as a fairly close game on Sat
urday would mean another big attend
ance on Wednesday,.
Bets have been recorded at even
money that Maui will win both games.

POLO TOURNAMENT J
BEGINS SATURDAY
Two Matches Will Be Played by the Oahu and
Maui Teams for the Cup Of
Championship.

The coming polo tournament is the
first since last September, on which
occasion Kauai and Maui competed at
Moanalua, Oahu being unrepresented.
Kauai was victorious.
Maui had hard luck, as shortly after
playing three periods of the first game,
George Wilbur, who was playing No.
1. unfortunately broke a bone of his
ankle, the score at the time being de-
cidedly in Maui's favor. After Will
bur's disablement Kauai ran away and
won as they liked.
The second game was a replica of the
last half of the first contest.
The last real championship contest
for the H. Wichman cup occurred in
1902, Oahu, Hawaii, Kauai and Maui all
entering teams and competing. Oahu
won, the victorious team consisting Of
Messrs. Judd, Shingle, Dillingham; and
Dole.
This time Maui challenged Oahu as
holders of the cup and also Kauai. The
but Kauai was unfortunate enough to
have Arthur Rice, one of the standbys
of their team, laid up with an attack
of appendicitis, while Charles Rice met
with an accident while hunting wild
cattle which put him out of the game.
Kauai had no alternative but to
withdraw from the tournament, leav
ing Oahu and Maui to fight it out for
the cup and championship.
There was no practice yesterday
owing to the heavy ground caused by
the rain.
The officials for Saturdays game are:
A. w. Carter. umpire; H. p. Weller,
A. F. Judd, linesmen; c. c. kumbhaar,
Harold Giffard, goal judges; r. w. At
kinson and C. A. Mott-Smith, time
keepers.
The ball and mallet race will occur
between periods and promises to be an
interesting and exciting event. Two
teams of four each will Compete after
the first and second periods and the
winners will run off the final after the
third period. A cup will be presented
to the winners. This feature will part
ly atone for the absence Of the band
and will serve to keep the public in
terested.
The championship trophy was pre-
senteG by H. Wichman and is a per-
petual challenge affair. 1t is a solid
and handsome emblem of victory and
well worth winning.
Tickets for the game are now on sale
at the stores of ]. A. NJ. Johnson Co.
and Woods and Sheldon.

been made manifest, and it looks as if

ISSUE ORDERS TO FACILITATE
LANDING OF MERCHANTS
AND STUDENTS.
NAY APpEAsE THE CHINESE
CONSULAR OFFICERS MUST SEE
THAT CERTIFICATES ARE
PROVIDED.

Washington, June 27.-By direction
of President Roosevelt action has
been taken by the administration
which not only will facilitate the land
ing in this country of Chinese of all
classes, but will also eliminate from
the emigration bureau such admins
trative features as have been the SUBJ
ject of criticism by Chinese. 1t Is the
declared intention Of the president to
see that Chinese merchants, travellers.
students and others of the exempt
classes shall have the same courtesy
shown them by officers Of the immigra-
tion bureau as is accorded to citizens
of the most favored nation. .
Representations have been made to
the president that, in view Of alleged
harsh treatment accorded to many
!, Chinese seeking landing in the Uni
ted States, the commercial guilds Of
China have determined to
institute Boycott
on American manufactures. The rep
reservations, backed by the authority
of the American Asiatic society and
commercial bodies throughout the
country, induced the president to
make an investigation of the situation
with a view to remedying the evils
complained of, If they were found to
exist. The subject was discussed
thoroughly by the cabinet and the
president took it up personally with
Secretary Metcalf of the department
of commerce and labor, who has super
vision of the immigration bureau.
AS result of the inquiry, orders
have been issued to the diplomatic and
States in China by the president HIM
self that they

tee the bearer against any harsh or
discourteous treatment. Such treat,
ment, indeed, will be the cause of the
instant dismissal of the offending of.
fetal, whoever he may be.
In addition to the presidents orders,
Secretary Metcalf has issued instruc.
tions to the immigration officers
which. 1t is believed, will remedy the
difficulty heretofore complained of by
the Chinese government and individ.
uals. 1t is anticipated that the prompt
action taken by this government to
meet the objections made by the
Chinese will eliminate the possibility
Of serious trade difficulties. between
China and the manufacturers of this
country.
