Some Amendments Proposed.

This platform was not altogether
pleasing to some and there was an up
roar after it had been read, dozen
delegates being ON their feet together
and all trying TO catch the chairman 8
ear by shouting. A brother of Chair
man Poepoe finally talked down his
opposition and moved that the Federal
government be asked to appropriate
money for the maintenance and treat
ment of the people at the Molokai set
Element. When his proposal was grasp
ed it was firmly sat down upon, not
even being given the benefit of vote.
Imihia moved that che clause deal
ing with the question of government
by commission be knocked out of the
platform. He advanced as a reason
the fact that its adoption would turn
the prospective japanese vote against
the Home Rule party. Some time in
the future the Home Rulers would want
that Japanese vote in their business.

NEW KIND OF RAT TRAP
MAKES TROUBLE AT BAR
Customer imagined He Was "Seeing
Things" and Even the Liquor
Seller Became Somewhat
Excited

PHILADELPHIA, July 31.-Several
men who happened around the thirst
alIaying establishment of Edward Car
many, which holds forth its allure
ments at Marion street and Kaighn
avenue, Camden, decided that it was
time to join the teetotalers' ranks. Car
many has had some rats in his place.
that is, the animal kind. There was
hole in the floor by which they made
their way to the bar room, much to
the annoyance of the gentlemen who
might be getting on the outside OF a
highball or a large, foamy glass of
amber. Germany had an inspiration.
Flypaper catches flies, why not rats?
The idea was too good to lay on ice,
so he put it to work.
Close to a hole through which the
rats come the saloon keeper laid a
sheet of the sticky fypaper and await
ed results. They came fast and in p
bunch. A man who was enjoying the
best effects of a rickey saw something
moving across the floor. He dropped
the glass, jumped to the bar and cried;
"Holy Moses!''
The bartender thought the man had
fits and laughed but when he caught
sight of the sheet of paper gyrating
about the floor in the most uncanny
way he threw bung starter at it and
fled. One or two others gave the room
a wide berth, and, attracted by the
commotion, Germany ran in. He
laughed and said; 1.-THE paper worked
all right" The rat, which had become
so tangled in the sticky mess that it
could not see it's way to its hole, was
killed.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, July 31.-Miss
Elizabeth Tiernan, a nurse, whose
brother is a Roman Catholic priest and
whose sister is nun, is to wed an
Episcopalian Clergyman, the Rev. H.
B. Vanderbogart, of Middletown as the
result of a romance which had its in
ception when she was engaged to care
for Mr. Vanderbogart a year ago and
nursed him through typhoid fever.
Miss Tiernan's relatives are actively
opposed to the match, but her mother
announces that the wedding will take
place soon, though no date has been
set for it. The bride-to be is now in
Hartford in professional attendance
upon a patient.
There will be determined opposition
to the match, according to statements
made tonight by friends of the Tier
mans, who have always been identified
with Roman Catholic circles here. Be-
cause this opposition was anticipated
by Miss Tiernan the engagement be-
tween herself and the young clergy
man has been kept secret
Miss Tiernan was graduated from o
training school for nurses just before
she took charge of Mr.. Vanderbogart.
She is "a years old.

BRIEF LETUP
HELPS BROCK
RESUMES WORK WITH GREAT
ENTHUSIASM
Instructs Manager to Place Bet for
Hlm-McFariand Nearing Perfect
Condition and Confidently
Predicts Victory

Phil Brock and his retinue returned
yesterday from their trip to Catalina
andathe Irish Jew resumed training In
the afternoon at his Venice quarters.
Foxy old Cap McRea used his noodle a
bit in doing the unusual when he broke
training for his principal Wednesday
afternoon to take the trip to the island,
and that his idea was a good one was
proved when Brock began work yester-
day afternoon. McRea had an idea
that inasmuch as the fight with Nc
Farland is to be a catchweight affair
and Packy is inclined to be heavier
than Phil, a trip on the ocean, a day
of rest and pleasure and letting up in
training would increase the weight of
his boy and put more ginger in him.
When he started out on the road yes
terday morning Phil felt like cham
pion and he did his road work in con-
siderably less time than usually was
required. Then he went into the ring
for his afternoon workout and McRea
had to restrain him to prevent injury
to his sparring partners. When he FIN
iAled work he had a crouch because
McRea would not permit HIN to con-
tinue He Is in great condition now
and for the first time since his fight
with Memsic he asked McRea to come
to Los Angeles and put down bet for
him to win.
Confidence is a fighters chief stock
in trade, but Phil has more than the
average supply. He figures that he
will whip Mcfarland long before the
limit and already has his plan of bat
tie arranged 1t will be hurryup
fight with him from the gong and as
in his fight with Carsey, there will be
no loafing at any time. He says 1t
will be a fast and pretty fight all the
way and that 1t will end suddenly, with
Brock the winner.
Mcfarland is doing lot of work
every afternoon at his South Side Ath-
Ietic club camp and the Chicago boy
is taking no chances with his training.
He is in excellent condition now, ready
to go into the ring tonight, If neces-
sary, and has no fears as to the re-
suit. In fact, he feels like he should be
I to 8 shot in this fight. That he
will be pleased If Brock stands up and
fights the way he announced he will
do is the burden of his talk and he
nronnises to end the scrap suddenly and
without warning.
The fans expect fast and furious
scran all the way. With two such
prime sluggers, both game and speedy,
no other kind of fight could result
when they meet in the ring. 1t VIII be
a busv session, and as each depends
nnon his nunch and his ability to take
punishment more than cleVerness, 1t
looks as if a ten-round session VIII be
sufficient to settle their individual
supremacy dispute

.LEANDER CREW
WINS REGATTA
TAXES FINAL FROM BELGIAN
0ARSMEN
VICTORY OBTAINED BY NEARLY
THREE LENGTHS
Finish Race over Course One and a
Half Miles Leng In Good Time of
Seven Minutes and Fifty
two Seconds

By Associated Press.
HENLEY, July 31.-The international
Olympic regatta came to an end today
with sweeping victor for the United
Kingdom oarsmen, who have defeated
all the central rowers who participated
in the races. The great event of the
meeting was the championship eight,
in which, after winning several heats,
the Belgian crew went down to defeat
in the final before the Leander crew.
The Leanders won by two lengths
and a half over a course one mile and
half long in 1852, with comparative
ease. The outcome of the contest was
a great surprise. 1t was a battle OF
styles, the orthodox long stroke, well
driven home, of the British oarsmen.
against the short and fast stroke with
out any swing, which twice has car
ried the Belgians to victory in the
grand challenge.
Today's victory leaves all English
men convinced that the old style of
rowing is better. The Leander crew
led all the way. They were a length
and a half in front at the halfway and
continued gradually to widen the gar.
magnificent squirt of the Belgians
toward the finish resulted only in q
momentary gain of a few feet. The
home crew went away again ana
finished easy victors.

HUNTING AND FISHING

Fishing along the coast never was
poorer, and many anglers have wrapped
their rods and put them back into the
closet to await the leniency of the fish.
Many are the causes attributed. Some
blame it onto the moon, others to the
fact that many big fish have been lin
gering near the shore and have scared
the smaller fish away, while the more
reasonable cause seems to be that the
fish are spawning and do not readily
take the hook. Although Clemente
fishing is not up to the standard, it
seems to be the scene of the biggest
catches, and the course OF the local
anglers next Sunday will be westward
to Clemente. Catches at the local
beaches that few weeks ago were
considered unworthy of notice are now
regarded as unusually good.
A party of anglers who will go to
Clemente tomorrow will consist of W.
B. Barber of Hoegee's sporting goods
house, c. T. Peterson, C. Wright, John
ME Lehmer and Fred Levy, All are
expert anglers and are we'll acquainted
with Clemente waters. 1t is no idle
boast when they assert that they will
return with the goods.
The favorite hunting grounds of
many local sportsmen is in the noun
tains surrounding Idyllwild. Residents
OF the town are responsible Tor the re-
port that deer are numerous in the
range and are seen plainly grazing
along the mountain sides in the morn
ing.
e. B. Truell will leave Saturday for
an extended deer hunt in the Malibu
mountains His speciality will be four
pronged bucks and his records in the
past seasons justify the supposition
that he is we'll able to specialize.
we simply are oVerrun with ducks"
was the statement made yesterday by
merchant from the Imperial valley
who Is paying a visit to Los Angeles.
Il never saw so many ducks before.
They are coming to be a nuisance to
the farmers, and we will be glad when
the season opens so that we can kill
them off," Without doubt the Imperial
valley will be the place where all roads
will lead as soon as the duck ban is
lifted, October 10. Reports of ducks
from other parts of the country are
few and far between. and it will be
well if the lovers of the sport will bear
in mind the Imperial valley when they
buy their high-water boots and start
to put fresh coat of paint upon their
decoys
