FAST POLO WILL
Be SEEN TO-DAY
Maui, Kauai and Oahu Men
Will Ali Take Part
i'm Game.

Two important events take place to-
day in the line of polo. The game this
afternoon should be one of the most
interesting ever seen in this city. The
fact that players from Oahu, Maui and
Kauai will all take part. and that men
who are usually opposed to each other
will play on the same team lends an
unusual element to the contest and
there will be many out to see the
sport.
The game will commence at ; o'clock
and will be hurried through so that
the spectators may get home IN plenty
of time for dinner. Dave Fleming. the
star No. 1 Of the Maui team, left for
Puunene yesterday. His work in the
two games against Oahu was as clean
as has ever been seen on the islands.
He saved many goal by his steadi-
ness and was the mainstay OF the Ma
III team. It seems a pity that he can
not go to the Coast with the team
which will represent this Territory. as
he would strengthen the team TO a
great extent.
A meeting Of the Hawaiian Polo As
ISOLATION will take place this morning
at the Office of Waiter Dillingham;, at
Il o'clock. The matter Of sending a
team TO the Coast viii be thoroughly
discussed and the team, when it leaves.
viii go as the representative Of the
association and not Of any single club.
1t is hoped that every polo player
and enthusiast in the city at present
win attend the meeting today. as
there viii be a number Of interesting
matters in connection with the Coast
trip brought before those present.
