MAX SCHLEMMER
WANTS LAYSAN

Application was made to Land Com
missioner Pratt yesterday by A. L. c.
Atkinson on behalf of Max Schlemmel
to know whether the government OF
the Territory would consider a pro-
posal to buy the Island of Laysan. No
definite offer was made, the applica-
sound the attitude of the government
on the question.
Laysan Island and all the other is
lands and reefs in the chain extending
to the northwest are parts of this Ter
ritory and parts of Oahu County. lay
san was leased many years ago to the
Pacific Guano and Fertilizer Company
with the right to take the guano from
II. The bulk of the guano has been
taken away. Schlemmer, who was for
a number of years the companys man
ager at the island, has now subleased
it from the company. The lease pro-
vides for rental of 81 a year for the
island and = royalty of fifty cents
ton for the guano taken from it.
1t seems TO be Schlemmer's idea that
cocoanuts might be planted and copra
produced and that the fishing rights
might have some value. A lease, how
ever, for the raising of copra would
make an agricultural lease out of it
and under the organic act would be
limited to five years which is too short
a time or copra to be produced from
the planting of the cocoanut trees. For
that reason Schlemmer would like to
buy the island.
Neither Land Commissioner Pratt
nor Governor Frear, to whom the COM
was communicated, have
either formulated or given a definite
answer. There is nothing in the law
to prevent the Territory from selling
the island if it chooses. 1t is public
land. A question of policy might arise,
however. 1t might be considered I'M
wise for the government to part with
the title to any of these islands, as in
some contingencies they might have .
strategic value. While the sovereignty
over them would remain in the gov
eminent no matter who owned the fee, |
{ still might make a difference if the |
government sold the island to a citizen, |
md that citizen at some future time |
sold it to foreigner, japanese, for |
Instance.
Copra is now worthy nearly s1OO a |
on.

RHEUMATISM.

So little confidence has the average
man in the various cures for rheuma-
tism that he often suffers for years
without making any effort to find re-
lief. He then finds that it has become
chronic. This is mistake, as the pain
can always be relieved, and in most
cases a cure effected by applying
Chamberlain's Pain Balm. The relief
from pain which it affords is alone
worth many times its cost. 1t makes
sleep and rest possible. For sale by all

BILLIARD CIRCLES STIRRED.
Effect of the Return Of Willie
Hoppe.

NEW YORK, December THE return
to this country of Willie Hoppe is ex-
pected to cause stir in local billiard cir
cles. There have been no big matches in
New York this fall, and until Hoppe an
nounced that he was coming back to re-
gain his old title there was little pros
pect of any.
Hopes first opponent will probably be
George Slosson. The hoy wonder wants
to meet Sutton and Schaefer as soon as
possible, but as Albert Cutler has al
ready challenged the winner of the 1871
balk-line match between Schaefer and
Sutton, at Chicago, next month. there
seems to be no chance of the lad playing
d championship match before March or
April.
Slosson has intimated that he will chal-
lenge Hoppe Immediately for an ISL
match. OF course, this would not be a
championship match, but 1t would be a
big attraction. The veteran has been
steadily improving his game. and thinks
he will be as good as he ever was in two
or three weeks. Hoppe won the 1s1 title
from Slosson in this city two years ago.
and defended it successfully until last
sailed for Europe. In his game with
Slosson the youngster performed brilliant
ly, while Slosson appeared nervous and
unsteady. If SlosSOn can do as well in
a match as he does in practice he should
give Hoppe a much better argument this
time. II the match is made the game
probably will be played at the Grand
Central Palace, where the pair met pre-
viously before the biggest crowd that
ever saw billiard match in any country.

MORE BIG GAMES WANTED.
Lovers of Foot Ball in New York
Make Known Their Sentiments. =

make AuOWu 4ue1T Seu L1ucAISs
NEW YORK, December IA loud wall
has gone up here among the lovers of foot
ball for more big games in this city. New
York showed the foot ball managers that
it would support fooeOall by the turnout
at the Professionalism game. and it is
possible that next season will see couple
of the big games played in New York.
The spirit of commercialism, which was
supposed to have driven away the big
college teams, does not apply to the In
dams nor to the minor colleges which
have good teams, and they will play
here If the proper arrangements can be
every year, and the Cornell game will, in
all probability, beplayed here next year,
as it is the Tigers turn to say where they
shall meet. 1t is not known yet whether
the Indians will be on the Tiger schedule,
but if they are business sense will send
it to this town, where the public as well
as the college men can see some good foot
ball.
Michigan, too, may be one of the fea-
lures of New Yorks season, although to
date there is no opponent for the west
ernerS; but If YoSt is willing Glenn War
ner might be persuaded to bring his Car
Isle braves to the city for a match with
the western champions. This game would
be the moneymaker Of the year and would
crowd either of our base ball parks to
it's capacity New York wants the big
games and the public is willing to pay for
them, so it is safe bet that next fall
will Sc a revival fthe game in this city.
1t is almost a certainty that foot ball
will be played on the local base ball dia-
monds next fall, not only at the Polo
grounds, but on the American League
grounds as. well. Frank Farrell has long
intended to enlarge the seating capacity
of the park. and with the old movable
bleachers, which were used when Column
bis. he'd it's game there, he will have one
of the best places in the east for big
games

management of the federal indoor games,

of these are for school boys only, o.
yard dash and a 6O0-yard run. the third is
an SS0-yard run, open to all registered
amateurs In addition to these, the 3d.
yard dash for grade school boys, although
not restricted to novices, serves the same
purpose. There were so many entries In

FOOT BALL CAPTAINS,
Elections to Be Held by George
Washington and GEORGETOWN.

Manager Ball of the 1907 foot ball team
OF George Washington University has
issued a call for meeting of the wv"
men to elect a captain for the season
of 1908. The meeting will be held to-
morrow. and if all indications do not
go wrong it can be safely predicted that
the honor will fall to Sommers, the right
tackle of the team for the past three
seasons. AS all the members of the
1907 team with the exception of Capt.
Cunning and Sommers were first year
men and as Cunning does not return next
year, the latter seems to be the logical
choice. Sommers was picked as a mem
Der of the All-South Atlantic eleven
this year, and is strictly a George Wash
ington product in foot ball, all his foot
ball knowledge having been acquired on
the teams of the Hatchetites. Few
tackles have been developed in this sec
ton the equal of Sommers. his work be-
ing brilliant on both offense and defense.
The captain of the Georgetown team
for next year will be elected this after
noon. Those who are most frequently
mentioned Tor the place are Allen Glen
non of Pittston, Pa, left guard; Ed
ward Miller of Buffalo, right end, and
Lawrence Cullen of this city, center.

Race Meetings on the Pacific Slope
Projected.

SAN FRANCISCO, December THE
northwest or jungle" circuit of thor
oughbred racing is going to be quite a
pretentious projection in 1905 According
to a dispatch from Spokane. Wash. a
meeting OF sixty-fve days will be given
there next summer. while the syndicate
headed by H. l. Wilson of Butte. Mont
Harry Slower and w. w. Finn of this city
announces its intention of putting on
eighty days of racing for the horsemen
who linger on the Pacific coast Rfter the
close down of the New California Jockey
Clubs meeting at Emeryville on May =.
Slower will manage the Butte meeting.
which will run for siyty days. and he will
also promote meeting at Anaconda,
where the late Marcus Daily erected a
splendid course some years ago. This
track will be rehabilitated and a meeting
of class and high quality given in con-
junction with the Anaconda fair.
But Emeryville horsemen are particu-
larly well pleased with a declaration from
Slower in which he states that racing
will be held for three weeks at Peta!uma,
commencing about May 10. The Butte
meeting will open on June ~. and close

The Next Race to Bermuda.

NEW YORK, December 7.-Vice Com
modore E. v. Gosling of the Royal Ber-
muda Yacht Club was recently in Bos-
ton and conferred with the officials of
the Corinthian Yacht Club concerning next
years race from Marblehead to Bermuda.
Various matters were discussed, and it
was agreed that the Corinthian Yacht
Club should take full charge of the start
ing of the race. and that the Royal Ber-
muda Yacht Club should attend to timing
the yachts at the finish off ST. David S
Head and to what other duties might be
necessary Commodore Gosling expressed
the opinion very strongly that no mistake
such as was made last year in having no
committee boat at the finish line when
the Dervish arrived would be made, but
that a committee boat would be on hand
no matter how quick a trip any of the
yachts happened to make.
