THE COMING
YACHT RACE
Coast Sportsmeu Are
Stirred Up by
the Event.

The proposed transpacific yacht race
from San Francisco to Honolulu has
not only attracted attention wherever
yachting is pastime. but the Hawaii
Yacht Club has now the honor of hav-
ing given an incentive to yachting on
the Pacific Coast. The yacht clubs
all are interested in the outcome of the
race. Even from the interior of the
United States, where hundreds of thou
sands of people have never seen
yacht except in pictures, much inter-
est is being manifested and letters of
inquiry are reaching Honolulu from far
inland. It is certain that people all
over the States and Europe too. will
read their morning papers during the
tanning whether the yachts have ar
rived here safely.
Commodore F. M. Caldwell of the
Tacoma Yacht Club writes Commodore
Hebron of the Hawaii Yacht Club
thanking him for the invitation to par
ticipate in the race. He regrets that
their yachts are not capable of enter
ing but the club will be in readiness
to compete in the next race and he
hopes that the event will be annual.
He concludes by stating that There
could not be a stronger factor in Gre
ating interest in yachting on this
Coast

| and a half l came upon a khor, o,
! stream, which was for the most part
/ full of reeds and long grass. l waded
across, and on the further side found
/ tracks, where fine elephants had been
drinking the night before. On bit OF
sandy ground about half mile further
inland [ found lot more tracks The
natives told US that they came down
to drink every two or three nights, and
then went long distances inland. AS
we had no means of following them,
our only chance was to try and shoot
them as they came down to the water.
We went on into belt of trees about
half a mile from the khor and there
put down all our kit, and the natives
stripped themselves, preferring to be
naked when there was any dan
ger. We then left the trees and crept
cautiously into the long grass. We saw
the elephants drinking at the water,
but after a short time they all started
coming back in single file. l think
they must have scented danger. They
passed about 100 yards to our left, ana
we counted about thirty. AS they
crossed a clearing about 100 yards
away We made out an old bull leading
the herd, and both fred at him.
The whole herd closed up into q
bunch and shifted about with their
trunks in the air. We sat still, waiting
to get chance to single out a bull.
After minute or so, which seemed a
very long time, the bull we had fred
at began trumpeting loudly, the rest
Immediately following suit, breaking
the stiffness of the night by terrrrc
trumpeting and screaming. The whole
herd charged straight for us in a mass.

wind. and were shifting about.

time, as they presently started back to
the khor in single file; but after going
about thirty yards they suddenly turn

loudly.

HUNTING
AN ELEPHANT

Toward the end of our three and

spending shooting up the White Nile,
our shikaries told us of place where
there was chance of getting elephant.
We got to the place one afternoon, says
correspondent of the London Field,

which, owing to a heavy rainstorm
two nights before, were very plain in

THE MILE WALK.
Honolulu, T. H., March %, 1906.
Editor Advertiser: Whereas the
mile walk has caused so much unpleas-
antness in the sporting circles of Ho-
nolulu, it will be we'll to exclude this
event from future athletics, unless it
be thing by itself. There is always
bound to be some difference of opinion
in a race such as this, and it is a
shame that a single event should be
allowed to mar meet of fourteen
other events. For what reason was
the mile walk introduced into sporting
circles other than to accommodate one
man? And who is this man that Homo
lulu should bow to him2
A SPORTSMAN.
Gle happens to be the sporting edi-
tor of the Advertiser and while not in
the least solicitous to have people bow
down to him, he feels that he has the
right to expect fair treatment even
from GA Sportsman who fears to

HOT SHOT
BY Chiffon
Strenuous Questions by
Diamond Heads
Trainer.

| Editor Advertiser: 1t is amusing to
read in your valuable paper bearing
date of March %, the letter of Rev.
E. b. Turner on "good sportsman
ship, in fact so amusing as to cause
| person to give it the "'horse laugh -
He himself set beautiful example
OF good workmanship when he sat on
he committee that decided the protest
| on the mile walk, filed by S. Chilling
worth, manager of the Diamond Head
Athletic Club, and Rev. f. B. Turner
as chairman of that committee allow
ed the A. A. q. rules to be used to
cover up somebody's misdealings.
lst. Did he set good example OF
good and true craftsmanship by allow
ing Kamehameha man to sit on that
committee and disallowing the same
privilege to the Diamond Head Athle-
tie Club?
End. Did he set good example of
good and true craftsmanship by not
allowing the Diamond Head Athletic
Club hearing or even an admittance
to this meeting?
3rd. Did he set good example of
good and true sports manship when he
refused to allow The walking judge a
hearing at this meeting-in fact re-
fused to call him into the meeting2
4th. Did he set a good example of
good and true craftsmanship when he
allowed the rules of the A. A. U. to be
used when there is not a school or Ath-
letic Club in this Territory that is
a member of any such union9
9Th. Did he set good example of
good and true craftsmanship by using
the A. A. q. rules when professional
athlete was allowed to enter and par
ticipate in the meet?
9th. Did he set good example of
good and true craftsmanship when he
served out soup to the goose Chat is
allowed professional to enter for the
Kan. Alumni) and bones to the gander
Chat is by using amateur rules to de-
eide a protest.?
7th. Did he set good example of
good and true craftsmanship when he
changed the referee without notifying
the proper representative of the d. FL.
A. c., etc?
So let another talk about good and
true craftsmanship. In his letter he
says the only mistake the referee made
was in permitting the manager of the
upon the track and refusing the same
privilege to a Kamehameha man.
1t is my opinion that Mr.. P. L. Horne
and Mr.. s. Livingston were a sufficient
of Kamehameha men to look
after their interest and Mr. Referee Z.
L. Horne certainly looked after it with |
a vengeance.
If we were defeated in an honest and |
just manner we would doff our hats |
and say, as good and true sportsman |
should say, the best team won.' But |
when we are jobbed and robbed out of |
a victory by underhand and unfair !,
then like good and true |
sportsmen we complain and seek to e&-
pose those who robbed us.
So you see my contentious are that
we were robbed and jobbed, not de-
feated as the Rev. E. B. Turner styles |
it.
Some of us yet have to learn that
one of the greatest values in athletics
is to know how to judge fair and
square. even though you see your fav-
orites go down in defeat. And today

Is the demand for the product OF this
new mill. Mr.. Rosecrans Is a modest
unassuming gentleman who looks
after the general run OF business
quietly but with the eye of a man
who sees everything that is going on,
and he is ably assisted by T. Glendin-
ming, the head miller. Between them
with the aid of the latest improved
machinery, they are turning out a
grade of flour that is meeting the ap-
of every bread maker in his
county, and no better endorsement or

the man who looks after the power
end of the mill and he keeps his big
Corless engine as clean as a watch.
Only two grades of flour are made
and either will make bread good
enough to suit the White House
chef.
