II. P. Wood, secretary of the Ha-
waii Promotion Committee, said yes
terday that the transpacifc yacht race
was attracting great interest en- the
Pacific coast. At present, however,
the coming of the fleet holds the center
of the stage, but as soon as that shall
have become history the yacht race
will loom into great prominence.
It is expected that the Pacific fleet
will start for Honolulu soon after June
5. The yacht race starts from San
Pedro on June II. It is therefore well
within the bounds of possibility that

1t is probable that the hackers OF

finish of the recent race.
There is no doubt that the polo pony
IS streak at a quarter but his race
on Saturday made it look as if a
quarter was his distance limit. a bit
more work would have done the pony
good, however, and maybe the Satur-
days race will have furnished the
necessary edge.
In Indigo the bay pony viii be racing
with something which will make him
hustle every inch of the way. The
honolulu horse has a world of speed
and great things were expected of him
at the last HiIo July meeting. In the
races on that day, however, he failed
to run up to expectations. The race
on Saturday should be to his liking.

FARMER MURDERED.
Dead Body is Found MutiIated In His
BARNARD

oe'HyaIu.
West Union.-Arlow Whitbrock
a farmer living seven miles northwest
OF this city, was murdered while at
his barn doing. chores.
A neighbor William Stickley, found
the body, which was in badly mutt
lated condition. the head being liter
ally pounded to pieces with a club.
In his hand was lock of hair, which,
however, was probably his own. The
motive was undoubtedly robbery, but
it is not known how much money was
taken, as he was not in the habit of
carrying any amount with him.
No definite clue is known to the
murderer.
Whitbrock was 60 years old and
had lived here fifty years.
