BOSTON WILL MADE
VERY BRIEF STOP
(Continued from nage one.


The approach of the vessel to these
islands was known yesterday afternoon
when the vessel signalled to the La
hama wireless station to report her
Subsequently other messages were re-
ceived from the cruiser the last one
being last evening when Captain Nib
lack of the Naval Station was APP
prised of the fact that the vessel
would not reach this place until this
morning.
The Boston left the Coast ports on
April IL. She brought no mail but had
three days later newspapers aboard.
She ran into a heavy southwest gale
that lasted for three days. on April
Ia the gale was so severe that the
cruiser had to be slowed down and
headed up to the storm. Had not
this severe storm been encountered,
she would have made port yesterday
morning Her performance on her re-
cent trip was the best that she has
done during the last three years she
has been in commission.
1t had been understood that the Bos-
ton was to be locaed here as a station
ship but just before she left the coast,
orders from Admiral Goodrich chang
ing her itinerary were handed to Com
| mander Niles the commander of the
Boston. The Boston is to remain in
| Honolulu until May u when she will
sail for San Francisco to join the Pa
citlc squadron. She will sail from
San Francisco for Astoria June TO
go to Portland to attend the Lewis and
Clarke Exposition. She will leave AS
toria on June y to visit Puget Sound
ports and will reach Bremerton Navy
| Yard on July l for docking and repair
ing After she leaves the naval dock,
she will visit various Puget Sound
ports until August 1 when she is to
leave for Port Angelus for annual tar
get practice. While it is not known,
the suppOsition is that the Boston will
be replaced at Honolulu by another
vessel. This change of itinerary viii
cause much regret as it had been ex-
pected that she would remain in port
for an indefinite period.
The vessel is manned by a total of
300 officers and crew. Her officers are
Kossuth Niles, Commander u. S. N,
commanding; Charles Augustine Brand
Lieutenant U. S. n, executive officer;

The officer whose case is said to have

it is reported that an indictment will

thing of sensation in the courtroom.
When it came to the Indictment for
concealing the product of an Illicit dis
tillery, Oyama was ready with sim
liar reply. THE sheriff told me to do
it, and SO thought it was all right
and that had a right to do it,"
After some discussion with Interpre-
ter Shiozawa, Judge Dole concluded
that Oyama wanted to plead not guilty
and plea of not guilty was therefore
recorded.

The big August stake races to be given
at the Central Maine Park at Watervile,
August !, 2, and 3, under the auspices
OF the we'll known veteran manager,
Col. w. G. Morrill,, of Pittsfeld, will
undoubtedly be the best racing events
to be seen in Maine this year.
All of the leading horsemen through
out New England will attend and a
large number Of them have entered
their horses for the different races.
Many of the horses already entered
have never appeared before on Maine
track, showing that the interest among
horsemen is keen and that they are out
after slice Of the big purses offered.
Some Of the best Of the Maine horses
will also be heard from at this meeting
and 1t is safe to say that not all of the
money will be won by out-of-State
horses.
Col. Morrill, is making arrangements
to handle an immense crowd and every
thing will be complete at the grounds
for the comfort and pleasure of every
one attending.
Special trains and reduced fares will
give the best OF conditions to get to
and from Waterville on all Of the dates
Of the meeting.

After these come sulphate of imagine
