BILL CUNNINGHAM
STILL IN NEVADA

Johrs T. Murphy of Goldfield, Ne
vada, writing to P. ]. Ryan, has the
following to say regarding a former
resident Of Honolulu:
you enquired about Billy Cunning
ham. He has some good property about
50 or 100 miles from here. He is out
there at this time. 1 think he will
make some money out of it. His fam
lily resides here in town. His boy is
a bright little fellow and runs a mes
senger express here. His daughter is
a stenographer and, I think, has
steady employment, also here in
town
bill has not made any big money
during his time here, but he is always
rustling, and that means, in this coun-
try, that he may strike it any day,
because this is surely a great coun-
try; and while there are a great many
broken men here, as elsewhere, 1 still
think that this is the greatest country
for opportunities in the world

What steamers or sailing vessels will
be used is not stated, but Mr.. Castle
will be the freight contractor. This
is in line with his policy for the de-

probably, will go from here to Kona
for light freight to be furnished by
the Bruner pineapple and coffee plants,
which Mr.. Castle has just acquired
sugar and fresh fruits. Kealakekua

man to the ropes and, picking him up
threw him face downward among the
chairs.
Referee Cobb called both men to the
center of the mat and gave them hold
for hold. The Jap threw Roberts on
his stomach but the latter was up like
a flash. Roberts was rushed to the
ropes and both men went down. The
sailor was as slippery as an eel, how
ever and managed to avoid danger He
got Mitsuka down with a combination
choke hold which the referee would
not allow and amid a scene of wild
excitement the men took their posi-
lions again.
Both men were wary for while and
neither was able to get an effective
hold. Roberts did some foxy and pref
ty work on the defensive and seemed
to look on the bout as a joke. He
patted the Jap on the back and told
him not to be discouraged.
Mitsuka went ito the mat and it
looked as if Roberts would pin him.
The Jap bridged WELL. however, and
Roberts was Only able to get one
shoulder down. Mitsuka showed great
strength.
The referee got the men on their
feet again and Mitsuka rushed the
sailor to the ropes and both went down
in one of the corners. Roberts got
both of Mtsuka's shoulders down, win
ming a fall with a half-Nelson.
T The house was in a pandemon!um
and Roberts was cheered and cheered
again as he left the mat TO go to his
dressing room.
The time of the bout was sixteen
minutes
There was long delay before the
men took the mat again. Mitsuka had
hurt his nose by striking it against a
chair and seemed to be in no hurry
to resume hostilities.
The referees announcement that he
had hurt his nose was received with
derisive comments by the spectators.
When he finally appeared Mitsuka re-
sumed his rushing tactics and carried
Roberts across the stage. The sailor
managed to secure a half Nelson, how
ever, and threw Mitsuka heavily, win
ming decisive fall. The fall was OBJ
tanned in four minutes.
After the contest Mitsuka said that
Roberts knew too much about the
American style of wrestling for him,
Iut remarked that he was still the I'M
disputed champion at the Japanese
style.
When Roberts threw his man the
second time the excitement broke loose
again. Friends and enemies shook
hands in the enthusiasm of the moment
and hats were smashed for the sheer
fun of the thing.
There was a goodly number of ,Japa-
nese in the house but the majority of
the spectators were of other nation

last night to witness the wrestling and
boxing bouts and enjoyed a good
( evenings sport. The events were all
well contested, and everything passed
Nof without a hitch.
The main event, a -catch-as-ca tch-can
contest between Mitsuka, the giant
Jap, and Sailor Roberts of the Iro-
quois, was won by the latter in straight
falls. after a sensational encounter.
The Jap was there with the strength
and sggressiveness, but Roberts had

For the benefit of future promoters,
it may be stated that Manager Cohen's
statement of finances showed that
there was exactly S400.50 in the house,

Mashikiyama lost to Akiraka in the
second preliminary, the latter getting
the first and third falls. The third
fall took fifteen minutes to secure.
Isoarashi was suffering from a very
sore shoulder, and on this account the
final round consisted of only one fall,

ANOTHER MILLION TIES
IVA NTIrn

Daniel P. Mumbrue, a tie contractor
for the Chicago, Milwaukee and St
Paul railroad, has been in Hilo within
the past week and will leave the Vol
cano House today in company with
Manager W. W. Harris, of the Hawaii
Mahogany and Lumber Company, for
Kona. There they will inspect the
company's forests, as Mr.. >Mumbrue is
anxious to see the prospects for get
ting ties, of which he wants one mil
lion His idea is to erect his own plant
as he does in other places where suit
able tie lumber can he found, making
an arrangement with local company
for the product of the forest as it
stands. The company has 10 square
miles of forest on the other side of the
Island.
Mr. Mumbrue speaks in the highest
terms of the ohia ties, but thinks the
Mahogany people are making mis-
take in using ohia for such purposes,
as he believes they could sell to better
advantage for otLer purposes, and in
stances the difficulty in securing oak
for ties, as it is now more valuable in
other directions.
MILL INSTALLATION PROGRESS
ING.
The foundations for the new tie mill
of the company are laid and the car
penters are at work on the main build
ing, which is to be 120 feet long and
90 feet wide, two stories high. Most
of the timbers are on the ground, and
several ears of the machinery are at
San Francisco waiting for the return
of the Enterprise to Hilo. The work
of grading and filling has been big
job, and is now completed.
The small tie mill, which will run
as an adjunct to the main mill, is near
ing completion, and will supply ties
pending the completion of the big mill
This mill is up in the timber, where a
supply of water has been located, and
this water will be piped down to the
main mill later on. Logging has COM
menced for the small mill, and prepare
tions are being made to log the big
mill and have a supply of three mil
lion feet ready for the time the saws
will commence turning the logs into
ties. With daily capacity of $4,000
feet, the big mill will require big
force in the woods to keep it going.
The Hilo railroad has put in the
switch for the mill, and the mill force
is pushing the switch tracks through |
the mill yards.
