Special Cable to The Advertiser By
 Walter Dunkirk.
 Berlin, Dec. 22--rho Kaiser has got the statue craze very badly Since ne ascended the throne be has added ll4 statues to the sculpture of Berlin, and in the Tiergarten an average of four teen statues are erected every year.
 In his scheme of dottinR this city with statues the Kaiser has exhausted all his known ancestors, and is now putting up statues of his ancestors as children and threatens to inmortalize his own children. An equestrian stat ue of the Crown prince IS promised.
 A story Is being told in Berlin and Munich studios that the wel known sculptor, Adolph Hildebrand, frankly told the Kaiser not long ago that the monuments in the Siegesaiiee, which are the Emperor's chief pride. were a scandal to Berlin. Patting Herr Hide brand on the shoulder the Kaiser said RenialIy: Don't distress yourself, my dear sir, the statnes are to remain.
 Most of the plentiful statues in Bers lin are considered to be merely poS- boilers without genius or inspiration

 = Russia, as we'll as the United states, expects to be involved in another war with Japan, which has never stopped preparing for hostilities since the peace of Portsmouth. Japan has now more troops, more ships, more guns, and more forts than in 1905, and her rail- roads have also been extended for stra- getic purposes.
 Russian agents in Japan report that a conflict appears inevitable. owing to Japans desire to add to the fruits ot her victory.
 A high Russian official here says; ''The, Japanese believe they have not had their moneys worth, and think they. ought to have the whole of sag halien, and the Amur region, and heavy indemnity.
 They believe that Russia would be easily overcome. but Russia Is Prepar- ing to meet the danger. Her Budget ts balanced and her securities have iTa 2 proved When the puna meets loan of $500 0o0. 900 win be contracted to be spent on the army and railroads TPis

 The starving peasants of Russia have been robbed of the relief granted to them by a conspiracy among court of- fcials and contractors. which Is now being revealed by commission of in- quiry.

 The girl v1s laid out in conn, and her fance, who came to take a last look at her showed such passionate grief that it was thought he had gone Insane. After kissing the girls lips and w4ting a note saying that he would not be parted from her even in death he shot himself through the head with a revolver.

BECKLEY ON
YACHT RACES

HILO, August Admiral Beckley
favors a yacht race from Honolulu to
Hflo and return as one amounting to
something. The races about Honolulu
harbor now occupying the attention of
the Honolulu yachtsmen are all very
we'll in their way, but the run to Hilo
and back he thinks would be fine. The
Admiral asks where the Hilo yachts
men are. though he comes as near
knowing as anybody does. Mostly they
have gone, and the interest that once
existed here in the sport has waned'
The Admiral says that he will put up
a cup for a Honolulu-Hiio race of this
kind and that it should be open to
Eflo sailing boats-if there were any.
such a race ought to include a stop
over in Hilo, taking out time while
the yachtsmen visited.

Honolulu, T. H., August IS. 1906.
Hon. d. T. r. Isenberg. President, Ho-

Dear Sir: In behalf of the kameha-
meha baseball team we do hereby enter
a protest against the action taken by
the Punahou athletic club in allowing
an Illegal player to compete against
the Kamehameha baseball team in
their game of today.
This, we claim, is contrary to Sec
ton II of the bylaws of the Honolulu
Baseball League, which reads as fol-
lows:
Section II. All teams belonging to
the league shall. at least ten days be
fore the opening of each game. file with
the secretary a list of not more than
sixteen players. which list shall con
tain a statement that all of such play
ers> have agreed to play with said club
during the ensuing season, and have
personally signed their names to the
bottom of said list. Upon the receipt
of said signed list the secretary snail
render a copy to the captain of each
leagu club, and all players whose
names appear on said lists, together
with any player not on said lists who |
shall play in a single game or any part
of game with any club in said league,
shall be prohibited from playing with |
any other club during the season for |
which they have thus signed or play
ed. under penalty of the club with |
whom they or he subsequently plays |
forfeiting the game or games in which |
said player takes part, unless by unan- |
lmous consent of the league"
