DAVE BARRY
FIGHTS DRAW

INDIANAPOLIS, May 14.-Hugo
Kelley and Dave Barry fought ten
rounds to a draw here tonight before
the local athletic club. Kelley looked
TO have a shade the better OF it. but the
decision was generally well received.
In the fourth and seventh rounds Barry
made his best showing, and it was his
terrific blows in these two rounds that
almost proved the Chicagoan's I'M
doing. Kelley did most of the leading,
and it was on this and the hard jolts
he landed that his friends thought he
should have had the verdict. There
were a number of exchanges that
brought the crowd to its feet.
Ray Bronson knocked out George
Quinn of Chicago in the second round
of their scheduled six-round bout.

LA PALOMA'S
HARD TRIP

| The Chronicle of May Is tells of the
| arrival of Hawaffs cup defender, La
| Paloma, from Honolulu as follows:
| The schooner yacht La Paloma,
which left Honolulu on April IA ar
| rived late Saturday off the Heads, ana
came into the bay Sunday morning.
The first notice the crew had of the
great disaster that has befallen the
| city was when a doctor boarded the
yacht off Meiggs wharf.
Commodore Macfarlane thought it
strange as he neared the Heads that
there was not a pilot boat in sight. and
as he was passing in through the
Golden Gate he thought he would meet
some of the yachts, AS not a sail was
in sight, he thought that the local
yachtsmen must have peen experience
ing a blow and that the fleet had
hunted cover Then he noticed that
there were no cars at the Cliff. This
also struck him as strange, as did the
tented city at the Preside. After this
he was too busy coming to an anchor
lower part of the city.
When told by the doctors what had
happened he went on deck and realized
it all. After being given a clean bill of
health he was invited by a member
of the Corinthian Yacnt Club to go
over to Tiburon and take up mornings
there temporarily.
He said yesterday morning: Il must
ing. but I wish l did not have to. 1t
makes me sick at heart to think Of
what you have had to pass through
just think how the dear old city has
been wiped out. All the places that
have afforded me many pleasant hours.
homes where 1 have enjoyed such hos
pitality as will always be fresh in my
memory. have been wiped out. 1t is
awful to think of it all Yesterday my
-r4ends in Belvedere told me of the
bravery of the men over in the city,
how they are buckling down and
starting to put the city back into
better position than she enjoyed before
the great calamity. There is some |
to think that the city has !
not lost heart and will be itself once
again.
LAS regards the trip of La Paloma, !
the good old schooner had a time of
coming up The first ten days we made
splendid weather and covered fully
half of the course, but from that time
ON we met head winds and heavy seas,
and at times L had my doubts If she
could stand it. We came through all
right, however.
LAS for the race home, it looks as
though it viii have to be postponed.
Before La Paloma started from Ho-
aolulu Commodore Macfarlane made a
wager with the captain of the s G.
Allen that his yacht would beat the
raider. The yacht got away little IN
advance of the Allen, and did not see
Ter again until those on board sighted
Ter as they were beating up from
Pigeon Point light, under reefs. AS
oon as Commodore Macfarlane made
mt the Allen, he ordered all the reefs
haken out, and it was a race for 1.-The
Gate The Allen had free wind and

NATIVE MUSIC At
The HAWAIIAN HOTEL

hawaiian music. in every form ex-
cept by a brass or military band will
be the feature of Friday evening at the
Royal Hawaiian Hotel This evening
has been selected by Manager Bews
for the monthly entertainment con-
templated for the summer season, as in
the absence of the band new corners
by the Alameda will have their first
chance to hear the charming music of
Hawaii. The series will be continued
during the summer. SO that those hav-
ing friends arriving or visiting may
Cunt upon this fixed event as afford
ing an opportunity to hear the best of
Hawaiian music.
The concerts will be given by the
Kaai Glee Club which now contains
most of the leading singers and instru-
mentalists in the city. The Sonny
Cunha and Ellis clubs. joined into the
Royal Hawaiian Glee Club to accom-
pany the band, took many of the best
known singers out of town, but the men
of Kaais club have so steadily improv-
ed since they got together that they
are now undoubtedly the best in the
city. The soIoists are well-known and
the music will be almost entirely Ha-
waiian songs
II is planned to have vocal solos by
the best-known singers mandolin and
guitar solos by Ernest kaai, as well s
other high-class numbers interspersed
with the hulas and folk songs of old

dinner hours. from $50 o'clock. there
will be dancing on the lanais for all.

SKATING STUNTS
PLEASE CROWD


Some good fancy skating was done
at the Queen street rink last night in
the competitions, although each of the
two events brought out but two COM
petitors. In the first, the open COM
petition, C. Abrahmason and c. H.
Ferris each did a series of fancy
stunts, the judge awarding the honors
to the former. This decision was not
according to the opinion of the majority
of the spectators. who preferred the

AS some of the papers OF West Vir-
gtnia claim there is really no reason
why the organization of the next
legislature can not be accomplished
IN peace and perfect harmony, or at
least with but little dissention or
misunderstanding. The situation. it
is believed. is different from what it
was two years ago. The "Insur-
gents as the disturbing or dis
sentlng faction was then styled are
not in the ascendency in the senate
as they were then. The recent cleo
ton demonstrated the fact that there
was NOT SO much factionalism in the
party as there was two years ago.
and the effect of the election is that
mostly men in accord with the
state administration were commits
stoned to represent the people.
There were but few, If any, elected
who will antagonize the policies of
the party as promulgated by the adj
mfnistration and the several party
leaders.
Also. the hold-overs in the senate
are not as body antagonistic to the
administration and the party's poll
cies. Even the spirit of supporting
the administration spread to the
Democrats in the last campaign and
the few Democrats who were elected
TO the Legislature have some among
them who are pledged by campaign
Entrances to support the policies of
the state administration.
Other features showing that there
need be no alarm on the part of some
newspapers in this state, concerning
the organization of the legislature
might he related here, but that seems
wholly unnecessary, as the coming
legislature and the state administra-
ton win assuredly be in accord on
all matters Affecting the public vel
fare,

The state corporation law in vir-
>ginia has been declared constitution
al by the supreme court of that
State, notwithstanding the fact that
the proposition was bitterly denied
by the railroads. Now, that It has
been declared good, such law
should be passed in West Virginia.
At least a law that deals with rail-
roads should be enacted. Perhaps,
it should be wider in it's scope and
cover all public service corporations.
In this respect the question is one
that needs thorough investigation
and no nasty conclusion. However,
so far as the creation of a railroad
commission is concerned. there is no
longer any doubt as TO that being
the proper thing to do. Possibly.
the only feature of that to think
about Is a list OF the proper duties
OF such commission. but the list

consent to post bills. It is very
doubtful whether such an ordinance,
as now drafted, would stand the test
In court. Though it IS intended
along the right line. YET the ordi-
nance itself is not now what It
ought to be. 1t ought to treat the
subject in an intelligent manner. It
ought to regulate the mater Of bin
posting and advertising mentioned
in a manner that viii give proper
liberty free from dictation and arbi-
trary manner and result in whole
some posting and the complete re-
moval of paper and bills, after they
have served their purpose. Espec-
Tally should it deal with the clean
ing of the street, where the advertise
ments have been used.
If action is to be taken, and no
doubt some action would be wise, 1t
should be intelligent and worth the
while.

LOSES TWO GOOD HORSES,

One day last week T. b. Gamble, who
had taken load of supplies from the
Morgan ranch to the Mount Grant coun-
try, met with quite serious accident
on his return trip. Near the summit of
Cottonwood Mr. Gambel got out of the
road in the snow and drove into 10
foot shaft Both of the horses, which
were valuable animals and owned by H.
S. Morgan, had their necks broken.
The sleigh did not go into the shaft and
in some unaccountable way Mr.. Gambel
escaped without a scratch. The value of
the team was $3.50.
