GENEROUS GIFTS
TO YACHTSMEN

During the banquet given by the
Hawaii Yacht Club Monday night, at
the Seaside Hotel in connection with
their annual meeting, through the gen
erosity of two of the honorary mem
bers, Mr.. c. A. Brown, and Admiral
Beckley, the club debt has been prae-
tically wiped out of existence. Mr..
Brown, in happy presentation speech,
made the club a gift of $3.50.
Admiral Beckley in presenting TO
the club his check for $3.50 informed
the members that they were now pos
sessed of a navigator, he having just
received papers from Washington that
empowered him to navigate vessel
anywhere on the Pacific ocean.
Commodore Cooper and Mr.. McInerny
expressed their appreciation of the
generosity shown by the donors, this
being seconded by the members with
cheers.

of our so-called best coaches soon may
take a back seat
Mr.. Stage got long way with the
naw game last fall, but, as he himself
admits, he came nowhere near solving
half its possibilities. From what
saw I would not hesitate to say his
was the best style of play from prae-
tically every viewpoint. Next year we
can expect great things from Mr.
Stage, and I believe he will make good
with our expectations.
There is only one criticism which
would have to make. and this is IN re-
gard to the forward pass. I believe the
forward pass should be encouraged
more. Most players and coaches feel
that there is too much risk in trying
it. This risk should be made smaller
in some way, and I think, perhaps, one
way of reducing 1t would be to substf-
tute a penalty of fifteen yards for loss
of the ball when it strikes the ground.
This, however, is not a serious OBJ
lection. If the quarterback is wise
enough to know when to use the for
ward pass he never should fear taking
a great risk. The time not to try it.
of course. is when the ball is in too
close proximity to your own goal"
"I agree with Eckersall in general,
but I believe something should be done
to clarity the rule in regard to hurd-
ling" said Capt. De Tray. This rule
should be rewritten and probably en-
larged so that there can be no doubt
as to just what it limits. Otherwise /
am greatly pleased with the decision
of the rules committee.
Chicago suffers nothing from the
no changes We got along quite well
last fall and we will go surprisingly
further next year. Mr.. Stagg has many
plays which never have been used. He
considered the season just closed large
ly in the light of a season Of expert
ment and SO has much to work on
for next year.
II look for every team of Importance,
major or minor, to play the game for
all it is worth, and I think practi-
caIIy every team will use the open
game to good advantage. There is no
reason why any one should play old
style football any longer. It was
found to be losing game last fall.
There will be a great deal of iTaI-
tating next fall by the various coaches.
Those who stood on the outside last
season and were content to let the
others try the experimenting will have
many plays to use next fall. If they
can not invent they can initiate, and
this is what they will don. Y. Sun.

BOWLING ALLEYS
TO BE OPENED

It is the intention of the manage

the Hotel Baths to open them to the
public for the first time on Saturday
night. The public will be admitted
free of charge to the baths and to
the bowling alleys, and no charge will

These are the first regulation bowl
ing alleys that have ever been in
stalled in these islands. They are
maple alleys made by the Brunswick
Balk Company, and all the latest para
phernalia in the way of balls, pins, etc,
were received by last Alameda. All the
bowling alleys that have been in Homo
lulu hitherto have been constructed
from Northwest lumber, and were all
right for time, but eventually would
get full of dents and for this reason
bowling gradually fell out of favor.
The management purpose promoting
a ladies' bowling club, and will ar
range tournaments between the differ
ent lodges, and athletic clubs. A very
pleasant feature of these alleys are
their connection with the baths.

IA DIE IN TENEMENT HOUSE BLAZE
EXPLOSION FOLLOWED BY FIRE
CATCHES OCCUPANTS.
Front Of the Building Blown out-Wil
Be Impossible To Recover Bodies
Until Ashes Have Cooled.

New York. July 29.-An explosion
accompanied by fire, shattered an East
Side tenement and with the crumbling
walls ID people went down to death
while twice as many were probably
fatally injured.
The horror was a repetition OF the
periodical blaze that sweeps through
the densely populated foreign section
OF city and is almost invariably at
tended with panic and death. The
wrecked building was at 222 Christie
street, where six-Story tenement rose
above the grocery store basement
An explosion, ash yet unaccounted
for, tore out the front of the building,
and the fire that followed caught the
70 families, numbering about 100 per.
sons, while most of them we're asleep.
Not until the ashes have cooled will
it be possible to recover the bones Of
the dead.
Of the injured many jumped from
the windows, others were caught by
falling timbers, many half suffocated
by smoke were dragged from the hall
ways, while others received their
wounds during the panic and mad fight
among each other for an exit.
The tenement was occupied chiefly
by Italians. A passerby was attracted
to the explosion, which apparently oc-
CURED on the basement floor. AS he
turned toward the building the whole
front, with its ffimsey fire escapes, fell
into the street and from the sagging
floors score of half awake people
dropped into the street. Many of
these were badly hurt, but they proved
to be the more fortunate of the tenants
for in another instant the building was
wrapped in flames and the cries OF
persons burning to death rent the air.
In the wild panic that followed many
received mortal injuries. Several who
sought escape by a rear stairway
were driven back by choking smoke.
Some of these made their way through
the fire to other exits, but more fell
overcome in the Railways, to be drag
ged ont insensible by the police and
firemen.
OF the dead and dying a large part
are women and children.
