BECKLEY CUP
GOES TO HELENE

The yacht Helene has been awarded
the Beckley cup by ruling of the
regatta committee, which took the facts
into consideration and decided that, un.
der the circumstances the Helene was
entitled to the prize. *
The race was held June "a last and
there was one of those unfortunate in.
cidents which will creep in even to tho
best regulated races. The Diamond
Head stake boat was not there on time
and there was nothing for the yachts
to round until the launch arrived and
hailed the shippers that she. would act
as stake boat.
BY ruling made after the race, the
race was called off but a later consid.
Grafton of the matter decided the com
mittee to award the cup to the Helene
and her skipper Fred Whitney.
The following correspondence makes
the whole matter clear.
"August 30, Mr.. c. T. Wilder, Dear
Sir: 1 have just been informed by two
members of the Hawaii yacht club that
the yacht Helene won the race for the
Beckley cup by two minutes corrected
time allowance on June "a last but, by
an arbitrary ruling of the chairman of
the regatta committee, the race was de.
clared off without written protest of ir-
regularities by any yachts captain. If
the above facts are correct, the yacht
Helene is entitled to the cup this year.
Yours truly, Fred Whitney, captain
Helene"
august 30, Fred Whitney Esq. Dear
Sir: Your protest on behalf of the
yacht Helene, in re Beckley race of
June "a, 1908, is at hand. In reply
beg to advise you that the matter will
be submitted to the directors Of the
Hawaii yacht club at meeting to be
held very soon. Yours very truly, Chas
T. Wilder"
"November 4, Mr.. Chas. T. Wilder
Dear Sir: In answer to yours of Octo
Der in re protest of Captain Whitney
for the Beckley cup, would state that
the undersigned committee met and, af
ter carefully considering the matter
have decided unanimously to sustain
Captain Whitney's protest and award
the cup for this year to the yacht
Helene. Yours respectfully, H. P. Roth

WHO STOLE TWO-THIRDS
OF ATCHERLEY'S MEDICINE?

Mrs. Mary Atcherley reported to the
police yesterday forenoon that the dis.
pensary Of DR.. Atcherley on Emma
street had been broken into during the
previous night and part of the medi-
cines used in the treatment of lepers at
the Kalihi station stolen. She states
that at least two.thirds of the contents
OF one of the bottles was taken. She
has her suspicious, as to who made the
alleged raid, but until the police make
a thorough investigation, she does not
care to make them public.
Mrs. Atcherley sounds warning to
the person or persons who appropriated
the medicine. She says that even in
the hands of an experienced practition.
err 1t will be dangerous medicine, as
the secret of DR.. Atcherley's treatment
is in its exact application. The police

GAS one who has devoted ten strenu-
GUS years to the development of philan-

"The anticipations of years were

ment of this CHASTITY disease will be
Appropriated if not entirely achieved,
unless, indeed, it be the provision Of
a special home for white inmates, which
is, believe, cherished ideal Of the
superintendent.
GAS I travel on through Japan,
China, Burma and India--in which
countries the society with which am
connected, the Mission to Lepers in In
dia and the East, is maintaining nearly
fifty asylums for lepers and twenty
homes for their healthy children,-I
shall compare with profound interest
what I find there with what have
seen at Kalaupapa.
! "With regard to your delightful
climate and the beauties of the Islands,
generally will only add that when
the guide books speak of them as the
Paradise of the Pacific, they are, for
once at least, within the truth"
The Hawaiian gazette., 1908-11-10

"Nowhere that l know of in the
world is there leper settlement ar
ranged so well and the inmates cared
for so systematically and with such a
regard for their material comfort and
welfare as that on Molokai,' said DR..
John jackson, +, r. G. s., London, who
has been in Hawaii for some weeks
and who returned yesterday morning
from three.day visit to the Settle
ment.
Dr. Jackson Is connected with the
work of leper segregation in India, in
which country there are half a million
persons afflicted with the disease, and
on the work in the Orient the Doctor
gave an address in Central Union
church last night. He is now on his
way around the world, leaving today
for Japan, and on his travels he will
visit the segregation camps in that
country and elsewhere in order to study
segregation methods.
''I talked with the physicians here
in regard to the efficacy of the Nastine
treatment" DR.. jackson said, in refer
ence to the world Is search for cure
for the disease, "and learn that the
good results obtained are very much as
the results we had been able TO secure
with n different treatment in India. The
condition of the patients are very much
improved with the treatment, but the
bacilli remains in the system.
"Owing to the fact that the Indian
governments are kept poor through re.
curing famines and outbreaks of plague,
we have not been able there to carry
out our wishes in regard to the treat
ment of leprosy on proper scale. The
segregation camps with which am con-
nected are maintained through contri-
buttons of philanthropists. We do what
we can but the work is difficult and
we have strong native sentiment to
oppose, just as you have here. One con.
dition we are able to put into effect
and which we insist upon is the strict
segregation of the sexes, while healthy
children are always taken away from
their mothers as soon as possible and
taken care of in our homes for chill.
dren. With them we have much the
same happy experience as you do here,
very few Of the children ever have
to be taken back to the segregation
camps. I think it is fully demonstrated
now that leprosy is not hereditary but
contagious The few cases of leprosy
among the children born of leprous pa
rents we regard as the development Of
latent contagion.

in the course of my world-tour, hope
I may be permitted through the Adver

The whale was discovered floating Off

The blubber averages nine inches
