In Minneapolis railway nparticular-

citizens and farmers north and east of

in speaking of the projected road said:
$50 far as | know, there is nothing to
it. | am sure road running through
the territory mentioned would be use
less expense. At present branches of
different roads run through this region,
within about 20 miles of each other. and
as farmers rarely expect shorter haul
than one half of this distance for their
products, and even those living midway
between those branches would have to
go no father than this. can see no call
for new road.

the Union Railway Co, who are said to
have called upol officers of the 500

past railroad has been contemplated
through this region, but sufficient

INSTEAD of benehtting the Soo,such a
line, if certain, would only cut into our
own traffic, and yet owing to the busi-
ness being so divided they would hardly
be able to pay their own running ex-

Notwithstanding the above, however

to have line with or without the sane

Want Fishers Aggregation to

Hilo wants chance to see Mique
Fishers Coast league team play be-
fore they return to the States. A let
ter was received yesterday from P. c.
Beamer, of that town, stating that the
fans of the metropolis of the big is
land were anxious to have a chance
to see the ball tossers from the Coast
in action and that they were willing
to guarantee gate receipts of at least
$3.50, if arrangements to take the team
there could be effected.
The plan that is proposed is to either
charter a special steamer with an ex-
cursion from this city to Hilo, or for
the boys to go over on one of the
regular boats. They are to play one
game at the race track IN Hilo and
then make the trip to the Volcano
House, to see the crater of Kilauea. 1t
seems likely that the deal will go
through and that the Hi1oites will
have an opportunity of seeing gilt
edged ball as well as fans of this city.

EXPERTS TALK
ON SWIMMING

Swimmers are wondering what new
style of saddling will be invented next
to increase speed. Since the old breast
stroke came into vogue three new fash
ions have also come in, and with
each one the speed in cutting through
the water has been increased.
1.-The four different strokes which
are being used most by the present.
day swimmers are the breast, side,
trudgeon and crawl" says Alexander
Meffert, of the Chicago A. A "Of this
group the crawl is the latest, and the
speed a swimmer is able to get up Is
many seconds faster than that gained
by any other. The crawl is used In
short distance contests, while the side
and trudgeon are used more for long
distance events, although the swim
mers are slowly working the crawl
into the mile and two mile COMPETE
tons.
Each of these strokes has a differ
ent arm motion, but there are only
three different leg movements. The
workings of these limbs in the side and
trudgeon strokes are the same, while
in the breast and crawl methods they
have entirely different motions. Of the
three the padding of the legs in the
crawl is the best because it offers lit
tie resistance to the water. This is
one of the chief reasons why no great
speed can be attained with the frog
motion used in swimming the breast
stroke. The scissors movement forces
the body faster than the frog and
offers less resistance to the water.
1.-The breast stroke is the easiest to
learn and generally is the first the
student tries to master. In this style
the hands are shot straight forward
and the legs drawn up. When the
hands are extended forward the little
fingers are pointed upward, SO that
when they are swept backward, until
in line with the shoulders, they will
act as a paddle When the arms reach
this position the legs are extended full
| length and then drawn up again as
the arms shoot forward for the next
stroke.
.tAfter this the side stroke is the
next and is a great deal harder to
, learn. because it is complicated and re-
uuires a lot of patience on the part or
the swimmer. In explaining this style
it is better to elucidate the arm move
ment first. AS the arms are brought
! forward the one on the under she OF
the body describes half circle deep
under the water and is followed imme-
diately by the upper arm, whlch also
describes a half-circle. In taking the
last stroke the body is leaned slightly
forward, so as to allow the arm to SINK
almost completely below the water IN
order to use it's resistance in showing
the body forward. When the arms
have reached the hips the one upper
most is brought out of the water Tor
ward for another stroke, while the
other is pushed up along the unoer
side of the body until the hands are
again almost together.
