ALL NOW READY
FOR BECKLEY CUP
Every First Class Yacht in
Honolulu Prepared to
Compete.

The preparations for the yacht race
to take place Sunday for the Beekley
Cup are completed and from the pres
ent indications the contest should be
one of the best ever seen in the is
lands. The yachts will race over the
triangular course which was laid down
by Admiral Beekley when he offered
the trophy, which is one of the finest
ever given in the islands. The. start
will be from a line drawn between
the lighthouse at the harbOr entrance
and the Healani BOathouse. The yachts
will then sail to a stake boat, which
viii be anchored well off Diamond Head
and return to the entrance of Pearl
Harbor. They viii then come back
to the bell buoy and, lacking around
this fixture. will finish within 100 yards
of the spar buoy.
From the present indications the
race should be close. The handicaps
in the race last year have been con-
sidered by the Regatta Committee, as
have the results of the race this year
for the Governor s Cup, and while they
have been made already and will not
be given out till the race is finished
it is certain that there viii be some
changes made which will ensure
close contest.
Of the yachts entered. which include
the entire first-class fleet of the Ha-
wall Yacht Club. the Kapolei is look
ed on to make one of the best show
ings. She is the smallest of the first
class yachts, but is extremely fast in
a light breeze. She is owned by Man
ager Renton, of Honolulu Plantation,
and is sailed Dy his son. IF she does
not finish among the first three it will
cause disappointment among many of
the local yachtsmen who would like to
see her make a strong showing.
The Kamehameha is without doubt
the best yacht in the harbOr at pres
emit. but she WIFI be handicapped to
such an extent that she should be on
even terms with the other boats. The
Gladys, which has been the queen of
the feet till the first real tryout of
the Kamehameha in the race for the
Governor IS Cup, can ne depended on
to do we'll Whether she should be
given an allowance over the Kameha-
meha in the Beekley race in the minds
of the Regatta Committee will not be
known till the race is ended.
The following letter has been sent
to the owners of the yachts which will
in the Beckley Cup race,
by the Regatta Committee:
Honolulu, t. H., Aug. l, 1907.
Sir: The sealed handicap race for
the Beekley Cup starts Sunday, Aug
I, from an imaginary line between the
and Healani Boat Club, sail
put the channel keeping between buoys;
thence to stake boat anchored well off
Diamond Head, tack around same and
head for stake boat moored at point
miles to leeward of Pearl Harbor en-
trance; sthence to bell buoy, tack
around same and finish TO leeward and
within 100 yards of the spar buoy. The
start will be flying one at 10 a. m.
sharp with a preparatory gun at 9:45.
All yachts are expected to be under
way by Gas.
Yours respectfully,
REGATTA COMMITTEE.

POLO PONIES ARE
HERE FROM MAUI
MANAGER Harold Rice Comes to
Make Final Plans for
Tournament.

The arrival of the Claudine yester-
day morning from Maui, bringing the
polo ponies which will be used by the
Makawao team in the coming matches
against Oahu, was the event of the
day in polo circles. Eighteen ponies,
in charge of trainer Tommy Patterson,
arrived and the best judges in the
city stated that they are the finest
set of ponies which have ever been
seen on these islands.
The Maui boys depreciate the an
nouncement that they have the fastest
ponies which have played the game
but if the eighteen which came in
yesterday are only slow ones, their
looks belle them. Fer an evenly grad
ed lot of ponies they far surpass any
which have been seen at Moanalua-
There may be one or two local ponies
who can outfoot the Maui mounts, but
unless looks deceive greatly, there
should be speed and endurance shown
in the steeds from Makawao.
Harold Rice, who has been appoint
ed manager of the Maui polo aggre-
cation, was among the passengers on
the Claudine and Immediately con-
ferred with John Fleming, the man
ager for the local team. The list of
officials for the games is yet to be
picked out but there will be no diff
Guilty over this matter, as the men
suggested by one are certain to meet
with the approval of the other and
there is plenty of good material from
which to pick.
The Maui team will be here on
Tuesday, arriving by the Mauna Loa.
As soon as they have stretched their
legs after the trip across, they viii
start in practise and there should be
a good sized crowd out to see what
their work is like. The Maui team
has been greatly strengthened by the
addition of Sam Baldwin, the Yale
player, who, through his experience in
the East, is much stronger than he has
been when seen here on previous oe.-
casions. Frank Baldwin may be relied
on to play his usual game, which lis
as good as is to be found in the Ter
ritory, while Krumbhaar and Fleming
will not be far behind.
From the present outlook the Maui
team will either defeat the Oahu team
in the first game or play them to
standstill. The local enthusiasts would
not be in the least averse to seeing a
tie game to start with, and it is only
too likely to be the case, as man for
man there is little choice. Team play
is what viii win. If the Maui men
can get together better than Capt
Dillingham's men and can hold their
own for the first two periods, the
game should be theirs
The Oahu team will start off with
a rush and, contrary to the usual game
which has been played here, will try
to rush their opponents off their feet.
Whether this will be a success or not
is doubtful, but the local men should
know what they are about and this
sort Of play makes the game all the
better for the spectators.

FREETH SURFING
AT VENICE

George Freeth is giving surf riding
exhibitions at Venice, a summer resort
in Southern California, and is making
a success of his work, according to a
letter received on the last mail by the
Promotion Committee from their agent
in Los Angeles. The letter states that
Freeth and Kenneth Winter tried surf
riding at Long Beach, but found the
rollers there unsatisfactory, finally
making a contract with Manager Han
ma, Of Venice. There, exhibitions are
given by Freeth every afternoon,
drawing immense crowds along the
beach and on the piers to watch his
performance.
