Valentine Dance a Bio Success.

The dance hall of Titus and Richie

The valentine dance given by these
well-known dance managers was the
attraction and to have accommodated
more dancers than there were on the

THREE BIDDERS
ARE IN SIGHT
Holloway to Try for Nuuanu
Dam COntraCt---0ther
Public Works.

Copies of plans and specifications for
the completion of Nuuanu dam were
taken out yesterday by former Super
intendent of Public Works c. S. Hol-
Ioway, by L. N. .Whitehouse, the orig
inal contractor for the work, and by
E. P. Chaplin, representing the Con-
crete CONSTRUCTION Co. Three probable
bidders for the job are therefore al
ready in sight.
Messrs. Holloway and Whitehouse,
from their former intimacy with the
whole plan, may be expected to do
some close figuring.
The change in the outer slope, re-
ducing the rock fill and adding stabili-
ty to the structure as already stated
by the Superintendent through the Adj
vertiser, consists of making two-to-
one instead of a one-to-one outer slope.
This means that the courses Of the
slope viii be built in steps, as it were,
two feet horizontally to one foot per-
pendicularly, which, it can readily be
understood, will make a wider and
stauncher cross section.
Tenders are advertised for today for
new schoolhouses at Eva and Waia-
nae, the former on the old and the
latter on a new lot. Tomorrow tenders
will be invited for a teachers cottage
at Kappa.
The Superintendent of Public Works
stated yesterday that improvements for
which there are appropriations will be
kept going ahead as fast as possible.
It is the aim of the Department to
leave no unexpended appropriations at
the end of the period, for public works
that the Legislature has voted to be
constructed.

DONAHUE WILL
GO TO BOSTON

According to the files of the San
Francisco papers which arrived yes
terday, Pat Donahue has Strengthened
out his trouble in regard to joining
the Boston Nationals. He met Pres
ident Taylor of the club, shortly after
reaching San Francisco and a few
minutes conversation ended all
trouble. Pat made great many
friends down here, both socially and
through his ball playing and all would
like to hear good news of him next
season.
One thing that will be in Donahue's
favor when he joins Boston is that he
has signed the pledge for a term of
three years. OF all the players who
were down here with the Spaldings,
Pat was the only one who did not
touch d drop of liquor during the visit.
After the game which Hawaii won,
he might have had champagne ad lib,
but not a taste would he take.
Big Bill Heitmuller, who was also
a favorite here, will not go to the
Philadelphia club. This announcement
was made the other day by President
Ed Walter, of the Oakland team! 1t
seems that Connie Mack, the Philadel-
phia manager, wanted Heitmuller, but
wanted to exchange a pitcher and a
fielder for him, while Walter wanted
a cash offer. This the Philadelphia
man would not make, and the deal
is now up in the air. Heit will be
greatly disappointed, as he wanted to
try his hand in faster company and
it is thought by his friends that he
would easily have made good. He was
one of the hardest hitters in the Coast
League last year and was fast on his
feet in the field, making good in ev-
cry way.

By the mail arriving on the China
yesterday a generous donation to the
new vessel was received from General
Manager r. P, Schwerin, of the Pa

donation was a large one and the in

manager of the Pacific Mail is one
that is greatly appreciated by the

AUTOMOBILE CLUB WILL
ASSIST AS 4 BODY

The Automobile Club has agreed to
take charge of the automobile section
of the coming Floral Parade, an agree
ment which assures the success of the
event. The decision to assist in the
big promotion event~as a body was ar
rived at, at the special meeting Of the
club last night, held in the rooms of
the Promotion Committee at which the
matter was discussed and the favora-
bic result obtained. A. GartIey, in
whose hands the whole arrangements
for the parade have been placed, was
present at the meeting and is gratifed
at the enthusiasm shown and the de-
termination of the bubblers to make
this year IS parade, so far as the auto
mobiles are concerned, the best yet.
Authority was voted Mr.. Gartley to
name a committee from the club mem
hership to go right ahead with all the
arrangements and to induce as many
of the machine owners as possible to
get their cars into the parade This
committee will be named within day
or two and will commence their work
at once.
In addition to taking part individual
" in the floral fiesta of Washington g
birthday, members of the club have
offered to put large cars at the disposal
of the committee for the various
schools, it being suggested that Kane
hameha, Punahou and some of the 9TH
err larger schools would doubtless dec
crate the cars appropriately with their
school colors and take an active inter
est in the affair.
An important announcement was
made at the meeting, this being that
membership in the Automobile Associa
ton had been obtained for the Homo
lulu club. This Membership will give
the members of the local organization
special advantages in America and the
European countries, enabling them to |
cross the various frontiers with less
OF the annoying formalities demanded
of independent autoists. The Automo- |
bile Association is worldwide in its
strength and its members are recog-
nized almost everywhere where autos
may go.

Splendid Poultry
Show
Continued from Page one.l


there are about fifty of these birds,
many of them splendid appearing. The
black Minorcas, occupying the eoops op-
posite the white Leghorns and contrast
ing well with them, are perhaps the
showiest birds of all, their heavy, over
hanging brilliant combs and dead white
wattles against the glossy black of
their feathers forming striking pic
ture of bird life. There are ten coops
of buff Wyandottes, comfortable, do
mestic looking birds, and half dozen
members of the white Wyandotte
family.
The big Brahma breed of fowls has
few representatives and these are far
from being good specimens. Through
out the whole show it was rather no.
ticeable that the fluffy feathered breeds
did not appear to be as suited to the
climate as the smoother breeds, such as
the Leghorns. The gray Dorkings come
near being an exception to this gem
eralization, there being several good
coops of this variety. The casual OBJ
server, who may not be a fancier, will
note that these birds have an extra
toe on each foot, for some inscrutable
reason, while one of the hens at the
show has no fewer than six scratchers
on each leg.
There is a splendid showing of Or
pington, buff, black and white, next
to them being the dainty little silver
spangled Hamburgs, cute little cacklers,
the rooster having a tail like the half
of Tyre.
Among the games there are some
valuable birds. The breed runs to legs
and neck and from an esthetic point
of view are far from being beautiful.
One prize pen in particular, the re-
Gently imported Shame japanese, look
as if they had been half plueked for
some luau and then let go because of
boniness. The little duck-wing games
are the exceptions. They are pretty
and well groomed. The varieties on
show include the red, black, duckwing,
Cornish Indian, white Indian, Malay,
Japanese and Shamos. The heaviest
birds in the show are here, a Japa-
nese and Cornish Indian tying for
first place with weights of ten pounds
four ounces.
With the pigeons are the bantams,
perking little fellows with crows as
shrilI and defiant as the fighting ten
pound games.
FINE PIGEON EXHIBIT.
The pigeon fanciers have done their
duty well by the poultrymen and have |
placed on exhibition forty pairs of
their pets, including many beauties. In
coop 81 is an exceptionally fine pair
of the breed known as hens. There is
a cock hen and hen hen, to be specific.
Among the runts one pair of the bronze
and one pair of the black would rank
high in any competition, while all along +
the line, ruffled, hooded, fan-tailed and
smooth, the show is good. There is one
odd variety, the eheekered dragon,
which has a peacock green ruff shading
off to drab and which wears -G pair of
pink coral spectaeles.

DICK SULLIVAN
IN GOOD FIGHT

Dick Sullivan, the fighter who got
his real start in this city, is certainly
climbing towards the top of the lad
der Dick has more than made good
since he went to Thea Coast. and now
is matched against a topnoteher. The
latter is Joe Thomas, who has recent
~ fought several hard fights against
Stanley Ketchel, who is the acknowl-
edged champion at his weight. Thomas
is California boy and clean hitting,
willing fghter. He has a nasty punch
with either hand and is willing to
rough it at any stage of the game.
Dick is going up against hard game.
In the first place the California man
is heavier than Dick, and in the TWEEN
y rounds which they are going to
fight this will make a good deal of
difference. In fact, Thomas says that
he can not make the middleweight
limit any longer. Without doubt Dick
is heavier than he was when here but
hardly as heavy as the other man.
The fight is planned to take place
before the Marysville Club on January
%, with the men, fighting at catch
weights. Twenty rounds are to be
fought and the fighters get half the
total gate receipts. This share they
are to divide sixty per cent. to the
winner and forty per cent. to the
loser.
The baseball men who came down
from the Coast, who are generally
pretty well up in this line of sport,
stated that Dick had done fine work
and looked like a conner. His straight
left. which won him so many contests
down here, was still in the best of
shape, and he was growing stronger
every time that he appeared in the
ring. If he can beat Thomas, Dick is
in line for high honors, and if he is
defeated he will not lose prestige, as
he is going against hard game.

AGRICULTURAL EXHIBITS.
A splendid display of agricultural
products has been placed on exhibit
ton by the members of the Expert
ment station staff Raw rubber from
Maui. tobacco from Hawaii. giant
pines from Wahiawa, alfalfa from Mo-
analua, Rhodes grass and paspalum
from Molokai, manioc roots and plants
from Kaneohe, beans and peas from
Maui, and sugar canes from the Ma
kiki patches were displayed to the
best advantage, showing graphically
what may be raised here if the effort
be made. Besides these there are a
variety of roots, "a tempting spread of
fresh fruits and number of manu-
featured articles, including Honolulu
made soy and Kaneohe starch.
FORESTRY DISPLAY.
One section of the exhibition of the
Territorial department of agriculture,
under the charge of Superintendent of
Forestry Hosmer, has a NUMBER of
seeding trees showing the methods of
cultivation. Among these are a num-
Der of young rubber trees, some seed
ling mahogany, expresses and acacias,
the latter being the trees from which
gum arabic is extracted. Backing UP
the exhibit are maps showing the ex-
listing, and proposed forest reserves
and also a number of sample forest
notices, fire warnings and other mat
ter
Besides these are collections of det-
rimental and beneficial insects, dis
played by the Territorial Entomolo-
gist, Alexander Craw, and it is prob
able that this section of the show
will attract a great deal of attention.
From their appearance there is little
to choose from between the bugs that
prey and those that are preyed upon:
Another section of this exhibit is
under charge of DR.. Norgaard, who
has brought from his laboratory a
number of interesting pathological
specimens, showing the effects of the
Tss%ddent diseases among animals.
Taken altogether, the poultry show
and its addezi features. in addition to
affording a great deal of pleasure to
all who may attend, is likely to prove
a valuable educational exhibition to
the whole small farming interests of
Hawaii.
