You are directed to give notice to
taxpayers in your respective counties

other property not heretofore given in,

same. w. j. MCDONALD,

DEFIANCE WINNING YACHT
IN PEARL HARBOR RACE

In one of the best yacht races which
has ever been handled by the Hawaii
Yacht Club the Defiance, owned and
sailed by Gus Sehaefer, of this city,
won the Commodore Cooper Cup for
seeond-ciass yachts yesterday The
wind and sea Were perfection and the
time made by the little boats was far
better than any record which has been
made up to this time.
There were yachts to be seen ON ev-
cry hand when the race was started,
ten of the local boats being present
at one time. The sail down to Pearl
Harbor and also the return trip were
easily made, with the plentiful supply
OF wind and all enjoyed the day.
The Defiance made a showing which
proves her to be unusually fast, and
the oldttmers, who have been watch
ing her carefully, were greatly sur
prlsed to see the way in which she
showed her heels to the Maggie. both
on the way out to the buoy and back
The Maggie beat her previous record
over the Pearl Harbor course but still
was ten minutes and eleven seconds be-
hind the Defiance. No lacking was
necessary except in rounding the bsoy
and it was mainly question of the
speed of the yachts, the handling of
the vessels not being as important as
in more ftful breeze.
The Cooper Cup viii now have three
names engraved on it-Maggie, Prin-
cess and Defiance. 1t must be won
by one yacht three times in order that
it shall become the permanent proper
ty of any of the local yachtsmen. In
all probability this is the last yachting
event of the season and the members
of the Hawaii Yacht Club all feel that
they have had most satisfactory pro-
gram of events during the year. The
credit for this is due to the members
of the regatta committee who have done
