WITH AN EXHIBITION BY THE
HAWAIIAN SWIMMING CLUB.

Those who are so fortunate as to re-
ceive an invitation to the opening of
the Hotel Baths will not only be treat
ed to the finest exhibition of aquatic
sports ever seen in this country, but
will have the pleasure Of seeing opened
the only institution and the first one
of its kind in Hawaii
The Baths open under the auspices
of the Hawaiian Swimming Club, which
is composed of twenty of the finest
swimmers in the Territory, and this is
saying much, as there are some good
talent i'm this line here.
George Freeth will do marvellous
feats from a flying trapeze and other
members of the club will perform daz-
zling feats from dizzy heights. Roth,
Cunha and Hustace will sprint i'm short
distance races. Kopke will show how
it is done in the Olympic Club. Shoot
ing the chutes will be a new one to

Probably the principal attraction Of
the many at this institution is the
beautiful bathing pool 75x45 feet and
containing 15S,OOO gallons OF crystal
water from the artesian we'll of the
Young Hotel This pool will be a mer-
ry place for the amusement seeker as
well as those who desire a refreshing
dip or warm days and evenings.
Next and perhaps equally as impor-
tant in this bathing pavilion are the
perfectly equipped Turkish baths,
which are as good a tonic in a tropical
! h,
air. shower baths, massage, cooling
and sleeping rooms comprise this de-
partment. H ere is something that ev-
cry man and woman who is looking to
their future welfare, should indulge in.
They will certainly be repaid for their
| trouble Medical massage for all all
ments can be had from the most COM
petent mas.auers
To keep well in this country you
must exercise. Learn a practical sys-
tenn that acts on all parts of the body
and does not take all day to execute.
The latest without the use of apparatus
! the only modern system will be taught
at this institution by Prof. r. AZ
| Woods. Wonderful results have been
accomplished by these exercises here
i'm Honolulu.
Bowling will be one of the amuse'
ments that will be presented and two
of the finest alleys that money can buy

Swimming instructions viii be giver
