Network of Canals in China,

Hollands canals are famous, but the
canal system of China is far more mar
velous and it's value to the enormous
empire is simply incalculable. No
country in the world has more navi-
gable rivers and canals than China.
The network of water ways, natural
and artificial, so covers the empire that
almost as many people live upon the
water as on the land The great
canal, that wonder of the world, runs
north and south from Canton to the
extremity of the empire, and by this
route the wares of all nations are car
ried to Picking, distance of S25 miles.
This canal is fifty feet wide. 1t pass
es through or near forty-one large
cities; it has seventy-five large sluices
to keep up the water and is spanned
by thousands of bridges

laymen and Missions.

If the professional and business men
in the civilized lands of the West will
devote to the study of missions the
same enterprise, energy and enthu-
siasm that they have brought into
requisition in their secular occupa-
tons, the cause will receive such an
impulse forward as will come little
short of revolutionizing the work from
every point of view.

WEIGHT LIMIT
FOR WALKERS

There have been so many new
waukenphast enthusiasts, who state
that they believe themselves to be the
champions of this town in the art of
heelandtoe walking, cropping up, that
complication has arisen.
Charlie Lambert and Matt Heffern,
the originators of the event and the
two around whom the chief interest
eenters, got together yesterday after
noon and talked the matter over.
"Say,' said Charlie, "dot aindt fair
all dem fe1lers like Ayres und dem
oders coming in. We aindt got no
chance hidden. Matt assented with
reservation. I'm sure / can beat
Won, Charlie" he said, "and I think
l can beat Ayres."
This made the other fat man laugh
very loudly. But he set himself to win
Matt over, and soon they had effected
combination which stated emphati-
cally that they would not walk scratch
with any young walkers "vot get ouId
every day ind ISIS fit
Then Charlie had bright idea. He
suggested that, instead of trying to
have any handicaps, which would be
unsatisfactory at the best, they make
weight limit of 210 pounds. All
over that weight would walk in that
class and all under in another class.
This appealed very strongly to his CO.
conspirator and So it was decided.
Amy number of aspirants to fame
may enter the race and they viii all
start together, but the heavyweights
viii recognize only competitors of their
own avoirdupois and all lighter men
must scrap it out. between themselves.
AS a matter of fact, the real inter
est lies in the race between the two
big men. It is conceded that there IS
nobody around here who can defeat the
Britisher and, so far, there has been
nobody with sufficient temerity to
claim that he could, except Matt Hef-
fern. and that is a joke. As long as
the two Methuselahs turn up and
enter the race, it will be grand,
bowling success. and they sure viii
turn up, for they are both very, very
serious about If.

MALES HAVE
A NEW ROOTER

There viii be more excitement and
enthusiasm than ever at the soccer
games next Saturday. A new Male
rooter has turned up in Captain Ber-
ger. He is going to have his band out
for the games, and states most en-
phatically that he viii root for the
Males in between tunes and also play
them on TO victory.
There is one chance for situation
to evolve that would make the status
of the soccer league absolutely unique
for interest. The Punahous are up
against the Y. NJ. G. A. next Saturday,
and if they should get their players
out and put up the game they are ca
pable of there is no reason why they
should not beat the young men, and
then there would be something doing.
If, in addition TO this, the Diamond
Heads should defeat the Males, It
would produce a situation that ought
20 attract every fan OF any kind out
to the next games.
Judging BY the showing Of the Pun
ahous. many fans think that their de-
feat is foregone conclusion. But this
is not SO by any means. They have the
PLAYERS ali right, if they would only
turn out. Jock Cation has been doing
his level best to stir up enthusiasm,
and it looks as though the Punahous
would have a good lineup for the next
game.
If this be the case, the red shirts VIII
have to look out for themselves and
douse that overconfidence thing in the
ditch. In both games the Punahous
have had a very dangerous forward
line with keen scoring capabilities,
which, alas. were never given chance
Oh account Of poor feeding and defense.
The Diamond Heads put up a fine
game last Saturday, and the Males

did last time, especially if some Of theI

KUNALU CREWS
TO RACE SOON

It is very probable that there will be
one of the most keenly contested row
ing races that the placid old harbor
has ever had the pleasure of watching,
in the not very distant future. The
members of the Kunalu Rowing Club
have been practising with much en-
thusiasm lately and, with two four
Dared barges belonging to the club,
they see no reason why they should
not pick two crews and have a real
race.
One of the boats is the original
barge named Alca, the initials of Jack
Atkinson, who made the club possible,
and the other is the newer model, the
Kunalu. The latter boat is slightly
the better balanced and the crew row
ing in this would have the advantage,
but this difficulty viii be overcome by
having two races and changing the
crews round.
In the next ten days the two crews
viii be selected and viii then go in
for a course of consistent practise and
training for the event. Some of the
oarsmeh are not only thoroughly eX-
pert with oar and scull, but are phys
ically able TO stand the strain of a
race more easily than many mere
man who fancies himself as something
of an athlete.
The date Of the first race has not
yet been set, but it will probably be
near the end of January or the first
week in February. There is a large
number of aspirants to select from and
competition TO be one of the eight
rowers is keen. Few people in Homo
lulu realize the interest that the fair
rowers take in the sport and the really
high standard of efficiency in the art
they have attained.

and Mr.. Waldron finds enough players
sufficiently enthusiastic to turn out,
an interesting three-cornered series
could be arranged.
The college boys will have the dis
advantage of being much lighter than
their opponents in either case, but
they will make up for this in speed,
condition and enthusiasm. Any game
that the Kaimuki lads take up, they
go in for with will and don't quit
till they have made success Of it.
1t would not be matter of great sur
prise if they were able to make it
very hard for, or even defeat, scratch
team of old country players.

INTEREST IN
RACES CROWS
Pacing Race at HiIo Meet
Second Only to Big Stake
Race in Importance.

The general public is beginning to
wake up and take an interest in the
coming race meet at Hilo on Friday
and Saturday, January l and ?. Own
ers and those who make their living in
dealing and caring for horses have, of
course, been interested for some time
and have watched the entries closely,
but the general run of men who like
a sporting event but don t trouble their
heads very much about dope, are just
beginning to realize that this meet is
coming off in a short time and that
TO be there a start must be made in
two weeks
The two principal events viii be on
the first day, They are the $3.50 Mer-
chant s stakes, weight for age, Il mile
and the freeforall pace, best two in
three heats, one mile, with $3.50 purse
to the winner and the Holmes cup if
the time is lis or better.
The stake race is for named entries
from Oahu, Maui and Hawaii. These
are Adion, Maui; Bruner and YOla
Girl, Honolulu; FrOlic and Banonica,
HilO So far as can be aseertained at
present, Adion. the Maui entry is likely
to start the favorite Jockey McAu-
life, who is training him, is very con.
fident of victory and states that he
is only afraid that the gelding viii
make a fool of the field
This may be put down as trainer s
optimism. however Adion is a fast
runner and a good one at the distance
but there are numbers of local sports
men who do not see where he has a
eineh by any means.
Bruner. who is being trained at TIE
honolulu ranch, viii be shipped very
shortly and viii work out with Indigo
for the last time this morning. There
is quite a possibility that Jockey Fere-
ira, he who rides horses with unknown
names, may come from the Coast to
ride Bruner.
Charlie David. owner of Yola Girl
and Trilby Green and who wished to
enter the latter. but put in Yola Girl
when the other owners kicked, states
that the Trilby mare is doing well but
that Yola Girl has had a fit of the sulks
lately and doesn t seem to come out
of il.
Frolie and Banonica. the Hilo entries,
are both doing well and their owners
are gaining confidence that they Will be
there at the finish.
The big running event is attracting
much attention but the harness bugs

ing race. Waldo J., the Oldtimer. was

ever, Julian Monsarrat was success
fAl bidder for the horse and, while the
price is not given out, 1t is known that
it was a comparatively low figure, the
other indueement being a promise made
by Mr.. MOnsarrat that the old horse
would have a good home and the best
of care after the race.
The Hilo people have imported a
younger horse to beat Waldo j. This
is Harry Hurst, 2:I44, which, as stat
ed in the Advertiser yesterday morn
ing. had arrived at Hilo on the steamer
Enterprise. While this horse has a
good record on the Coast, there are
many who figure that he will have little
chance with the grand old Waldo j..
The long sea trip and the change OF
climate is bound to upset the animal,
and it is not likely, they say, that he
viii be acclimatized and fit for hard
race by the first of the year.
Charlie David has charge Of the new
importation at Hilo, and is doing his
best to fit him for the big event. If
there is anybody who can put the en-
try right for the hard race under new
conditions, it should certainly be the
genial Charlie.
The japanese on Hawaii are taking
a tremendous interest in the races, and
there will be all kinds of entries for
the japanese events. Each of the
plantations is sending its star per
former to uphold its honor on the
track, and large sums of money will
change hands on these events, as each
horse will have large following of ad-
miring ard part-owning japanese.
The program as arranged by Mr..
Wright looks very good, and two days
of fast and clean sport should be the
result Mr.. Wright viii arrive in Homo
lulu in day or two to attend to bust
ness details in connection with the
meet and see the Inter-Island people

NorthcOtt VS. Bryan.

Should democracy go into mourning
and abandon its effort to substitute
government by the people for govern
ment by the trusts? Why continue the
fight for the election of the patriot and
commoner, William J. Bryan, with Hon.
William A. Northcott against him?
Yes, William A. Northcott is against
Bryan. In an address at GAINESVILLE
Northcott said all kinds of things un.
complimentary TO Bryan.
But why need William A. Northcott
say so much? Why expend so much
energy and struggle through so much
difficult augmentation? The Honora
Bile William Adjective Northcott could
have summed up his whole address
and his whole reason for wanting
Bryan defeated if he had told the truth
thus:
Il, Hon. William A. Northcott, United
States district attorney, with fat fed
eral pay, want more such pay and re
appointment, and therefore l am fol
Taft and against Bryan. because Bryan
wouldn't reappoint me to federal office

Paternal Tariff.

II has long been apparent that ona
phase of the endless demand for pro.
lection" is due to business inertia
sheer laziness some might call ton
the part of captains of industry. who
want Uncle Sam to guarantee them
reasonable profits" instead of hust-
ling for profits themselves. The New
York Evening Post sets off this class
with truly artistic touch, as follows
This reliance upon the tariff is es.
pecially characteristic of the men OF
the second generation who have in.
herited their business, who are per
haps interested more in automobiline
and other sports than in the dull rou
tine of the shop and who look to a
paternal government to make up theil
own deficiency in intelligence and en-
terprise. They would revived trade
not by making wares that are good
enough and cheap enough to command
the market, but by excluding the for
eign competitor To meet the foreign
competitor requires a large outlay Of
ingenuity and energy. To secure
protection has been far simpler ant
easier-the mere drawing of a checl
of appropriate size for the republican
campaign fund Hitherto the rule la:
been: Drop a contribution in the slo
and get tariff schedule-at the ex
pen5e, of course, of the great body o
consumers who cannot afford to pa!
for political favors."
