MAY ROLL AGAINST kauai

Local bowlers are enthusiastic over
the prospects of having ten-p1n
match with the Kegel Bowling Clui
of Lihue, Kauai Arrangements arc
under way to have this club and the
local rollers meet in a wireless con-
test, the Kauai boys to play on theil
own alleys and the local lads to play
here. A ten-game match total num-
Der of pins) to be rolled by five-men
teams.
Such match would create much in
terest as it would bring out the merits
of the players from both places. Kauai
boasts of having some first class art
lists in the ten-Din line and as the local
lads are somewhat fast themselves a
good match should result.
Arrangements could easily be made
to put up cup for the event.
A team from such players as Paul
Schmidt, w. M. Bray, e. Ross, j. M.
Riggs, w. Wilder, Ferris, W. L. Castle
E. J. Lord, Watson or Sam Chilling
worth, would be hard to beat.
Bray still holds high score for the
month with 266. He Is leading in the
Hart. Schaffner & Marx suit of clothes
competition, having an average of 21O.
p. Schmidt leads in the duck pin and
five-back games with good scores.

GAMES MAY BE POSTPONED

1t seems dis though all OF the ball
players are, going to Hilo on the
Fourth of Illy and consequently the
games that Dire scheduled to take place
at the League grounds on this date
may be postponed. The Rams, Dia-
monds and Saints are all in favor OF
a postponement and it looks as though
the fans will see no ball on Independ-
ence Day.
There is quite fight on between the
C. A. C. and some of the other players
to see who will represent Oahu at Hilo.
There are many of the League players
going to Hawaii and the chances are
that a crack nine can be got together
to play that would be much superior
to the Chinese team. The latter team
will play ball, however, and 1T makes
little difference to them as to who they
meet.

SPORTS
KIMOKfO Will SWIM

Kimokeo. the only swimmer III the
Hawaiian Islands who ever beat Dan
Renear, will be seen in the Myrtle
Healani meet on the night of the third
of July. Kimokeo has been training
quietly on the waterfront for some
weeks and when he enters the water at
the Hotel Baths on the above night ne
twill be in great condition and he VIII
certainly make such men as Cooper
and Cunha show their speed to defeat
him. Kimokeo is the fastest native
swimmer In the Hawaiian Islands ana
he has large following who think
that there is no one like him.
Captain Bcckert of the Myrtles has
a long string of swimmers in training
and some new cracks will show them
selves in the different events. The
chances are that Kopke will come to
town to swim for the Myrtles and in
fluence is being brought to bear on
Geo. Freeth to have him stay over
boat so that he can take hand in the
big show.
With this big event on hand the
clubs will not miss the boat races that
navy ioi lltiu ht val iit'i
Dor and their entire attention will be
turned on this water carnival. 1t is
sure to be a success and a big one at
that.
The free fireworks in front of the
building will usher in the Fourth of
July, and they together with the free
band concert, will furnish all who
have not the price of admission to the
wonderful show, an interesting night.
All who have seen Peanuts, the mid
get swimmer and diver, claim that he
is certainly a wonder His work is
attracting considerable attention and
when he makes his initial bow to the
public he is sure to be well received.
Seats for this show will be placed Oh
gale at the Baths tomorrow and they
are sure to 90 with a rush.

The life Of a rural mail carrier
is anything but pleasant these
days. No one envies them their
work. The roads, where there
are any, are becoming almost i'm
passibIe. Take the local carriers
for instance; large part of their
routes take them where there is
little, if any, travelling done
Consequently they have to break
roads every day and it just keeps
their horses plodding all the
time. They are now taking two
days to make the trip that they
ordinarily make in one day, and
the horses are not going to stand
it much longer even at that rate.
The government regulations are
that the roads are to be kept
open for the carriers or else they
neeo not make their rounds. II
those regulation were enforced
there wouldn't be much mail de-.
livered just at present u0less
different arrangements can be

The Santa Cruz, (Cal } Sentin-

following which will be of inter-
est to many Milbank people:
~. c. Wood and his son George,
of this city, four years ago visited the
West Indies, and on their return sail
ed from Martinique to Kingston, Ja-
msica, with large excursion party on
q German steamer. This city was
one of the most interesting and beauti-
fll that they visited in their whole trip
of five thousand miles. The situation
10 especially beautiful and the barber
exceedingly interesting as the boats
have to pass nearly around the city
before they can land. It is heavily
fortified and Q large number of British
soldiers are quartered there. It is
great resort for the English nobility.
The population is about half co:ored.
1t is connected by q railroad which
runs over the mountains to Port On
tone, which city was destroyed two
years ago by q severe hurricane. 1t
il only about 100 miles from Port On
tone to Santiago de Cuba.
Winter bathing is delightful there If

METHODIST EPISCOPAL

Next Sunday the pastor will
preach both morning and even
ing. The subject of the morning
sermon will b." Christian growth
toward Purity" Iu the evening
the subject will be ''The Sinner 5
Complaint"
The statement of the pastor
last Sunday morning that the
Sunday School bad not grown,
during the past quarter seems to
be wrong as he is reliably in
formed that the report to the
quarterly conference was based
on entirely new rolls after all ab
sentees had been eliminated from
the same. The pastor is glad to
be corrected in this matter and
to be assured that healthy
growth has been going on.
The first quarterly inference
which met atthe church, January
the twenty first, appointed com
mittee for the consideration of
the enlargement and improve
ment OF the church. The Sun
day school, Epworth league aud
the intermediate League have all
grown until they must have en-
larged accom- mOdatiOns.
Arrangements have been with a
Revival brigade Of the Salvation
Army t0 assist ia special Revival
meetings beginning March 26.
The whole church should plan
business, pleasure and every
thing else so that a full and reg
ular attendance to these
meetings may be possible.
