HEINE AND
SCOTT MATCHED

The exhibition sparring match which
was to have taken place at the Or
pheum last Saturday was abandoned
on account of the indisposition of one
of the principals. Rather than put on
a boxing bout which was not frst-class
the management substituted an addi-
tional wrestling match, which gave uni
versal satisfaction.
On May , there win be a scientific
sparring exhibition of four rounds du-
ration, between Young Scott and AL
Heine Both boys are well known here
and are clever with the gloves. They
have appeared in the local ring on
previous occasions, and may be relied
on to furnish a tip-top exhibition.
Both Scott and Heine will practice
every day from now on, so as to be in
the best possible shape to do them
selves justice on the evening when
Mitsuka and Sailor Roberts clash.

THE WRESTLERS
IN TRAINING

Mitsuka, the wrestler, had, up to last
night, received forty-two different
offers to train him for his coming
wrestling bout with Sailor Roberts.
The japanese are greatly interested
in the match, and are already betting
on their countryman S chances.
He intends to keep his training
methods secret, but it is said will aban-
don the japanese style of training in
favor of the white man s method.
just at present he is engaged in
hardening his abdominal muscles and
in improving his wind.
Sailor Roberts is also playing for
wind He realizes that the bout is apt
to be of long duration, and that he will
require to be in the very best of form
in order to turn the tables on the
husky Jap.
Roberts is 81 years old, and was born
in Switzerland, his father being a
Scotchman and his mother a German.
He has been in the United States three
years, of which time two years have
been spent in Uncle Sam s navy.
Today he will get down to work in
earnest and may be seen in action at
the Healani boathouse between l and
8 p. M

MEN To MEET
Fishermen Also Invited TO Be
Present at Gathering This
Afternoon.

The first meeting of the Outrigger
Club will be held this afternoon at the
rooms of the Promotion Committee at
one o'clock. More than one hundred
members have already been secured.
An election of officers will be held
and the Club formally organized. Ac-
tive steps will probably be taken at
once looking toward the Improvement
Hotel, Waikiki. which Mr.. Macfarlane
is permitting the club to occupy, A
hau tree lanai will be commenced and
a portion of the Manoa stream over
flow filed in and the club grounds pro-
tected by a retaining wall

visit of the fleet. 1t is proposed to
order at once a large number of surf
boards which will be placed at the dis
posal of the naval visitors during their
stay, and the boys who ride the surf
boards at Waikiki will act as tutors to
the sailor boys.
A number of outrigger canoes will
also be collected on the beach before
the club grounds, and many of them
placed at the disposal of the officers
of the visiting fleet.
The club dues will probably be not
more than five dollars per annum, and
large Junior membership is expected
from the different schools and colleges
Everyone will now have a place to
keep his surfboard or canoe at the sea-
side, so there will be no excuse for
any retrogression of the great national
sport of Hawaii.
Everyone interested in the preserva-
ton of Hawaii's most typical and at
tractive sport is invited to attend the
meeting at the Promotion Committee
rooms this afternoon at one o'clock.

passage of our rival subdued any
pangs of disappointment we might
have felt, and we Joined heartily in a
cheer for the Lurline-led by Tut.
This gentleman is always much more
eager to show his appreciation of an
other persons success than his own.
With. his usual thoughtfulness, Com

needed the ice very much when later

was lined with hundreds of people.
Among our visitors were several Wild
ers, two cousins and a brother of my
old friend Jim Wilder, of Harvard
Glee Club fame. The brother is not
so stout as Jim, but apparently just
as jolly and good natured. He says
that he is known to America and ad-
jacent countries as ''Jimmy's brother"

ian Yacht Club. came to bid us well

for post and cable offices. to send word
of our safe arrival 20 the dear ones at
