such fires once get started they burn

And they play some queer freaks.

Somehow the fire seems to take

First Auto Racv At
Kapiolani Park
Saturday

An innovation of peculiar interest
to Honolulu will he introduced on
Saturday next in the form of auto
races at Kapiolani Park, to be held
In connection with one or maybe two
horse races. One auto race has been
arranged for by Il. II. Lewis and the
Associated Garage, and 1t Is expect
ed that another will result as a con-
sequence of the challenge Of the Gar
age to any ear of the Ford runabout
class in town to race their 4-cylinder
Cameron, which Is in the same gen.
eral class.
Auto races have been in a way
tabu on the local track for the rea-
son that the turns are not banked,
and 1t is not feasible to take them mt
a high rate of speed, without great
risk of accident. The plan which
has been adopted for these races,
however, obviates all of the Difficult
ty, as the turns will be negotiated
on the principle which has become
familiar through it's use for the
chariot races In the circus ring,
where similar difficulties have to be
overcome. The car in the lead must
take the outside of the track, and
the car following gets the post, and
then they alternate on the next turn.
In this way 1t will be impossible 10
he -, nt hi1h
chances for broken necks and other
unpleasant features which sometimes
crop us are minimized to about the
zero notch.
The cars which have been secured
for the race which is now arranged
are c. & II. Behn's Tourist 40, and
E. II. Lewis Franklin %, both of
which are of the touring-car type,
and will carry full load Of passen-
gers. The distance will be five miles.
Five miles is the distance which is
tentatively spoken of for the other
race as we'll, as II offers a better spec
tacle than short sprint, and tests
the powers of the car better than d
shorter run, where a lucky turn
might give one man all the advan-
tage. "'0 ''' -''V ~"

Match With Any
Local Man

While fight promoters arc doing
things again in Honolulu, there is a
notable overlooking of men who are
anxious for a match, and bar none in
their class, not tho least among the
men who may be spoken of in this
bunch being Kid Heinc, who fights at
l-2-l2o. He bars none. and will give
weights To some of the men In the
local fight game. He Is particularly
anxious To hook III with Willis, and
FOR that purpose caa make lis hand

also his older brother. young" EIcine.
The offer as made by Kid Heine is
enough to tempt some boxer into the
ring surely. He will flgh, Willis, or
the heady Bird. in case match could
be made before Bird leaves this place
for the Coast. with Richardson, or any
others Of the feather class. Richard.
son is Il lightweight, but Heine Is not
adverse to giving him much the best
of the weights.

cided to play the games of the league

VOTE FOR I. A. LEA.

The Republicans of Faulkner are
centering their fire upon the Demo
cratic candidate for county Judge,
J. A. Lea, who is the nominee of
his party to succeed himself for a
second term. They are paying no
attention whatever to their own
nominees for other Offices. They
do not expect to win this race, but
they hope, by taking advantage OF
the fact that a county judge who
does his duty always incurs a GER
tain degree of enmity, to cut down
the lead of the Democratic nomi-
nee for this position.
Judge Lea will be reelected
but there is no reason why his
majority should be less than that
