METHUSELAHS
WANT TO WALK

Shades of Rip Van Wrinkle Listen
to this. Here are three superannuated
pedestrians who are going to walk for
wager. They are Matt Heffern, who
had the championship of the State of
Ohio in 1889; Bill Mccormick. who
walked over from ireland in 1889, and
II. M. Ayres, who walked from Hong
kong to Tibet in the dark ages.
They all think they can walk faster
than the other two, so they have ar
ranged a three-cornered match for a
week from Sunday, December IS. They
will start at II clock from the cor
ner of King and Kalakaua avenue and
walk to the Waikiki Inn, about three
quarters of a mile. c. J. Bartlett will
act as track judge, in his automobile,
and Charlie Lambert will act as finish
ing judge, They are to walk straight
toe and-heel method.
And now, perhaps, the Star writer
knows why the Jollier has been so

of events essayed to pass out of the
door and make his way home, but this
was not to be. He was waylaid by
an eager crowd of aspirants who wish
ed their challenges to the world to ap-
pear in the paper. One of them was
very insistent that he be allowed to
challenge any heavyweight in the
world, but not just yet He said that
he was going to be married in week
and that his girl might throw him
down if he came out into the giddy glare
of publicity. After the ceremony he
did not care, he said. For reasons that
are, perhaps, obvious, these challenges
do not appear.

CUPID LEAGUE
HAS BALANCE

The Kalanianaole League held its
regular monthly meeting at the resi-
dence of A. K. Vierra, Vineyard street,
last evening. There were present
Enos Vincent, president; E. S. Kong,
vice president; A. K. Vierra, secre-
VIII Prestidge, league manager, and
w. Tin Chong, scorer. Besides these
there were present, representing the
several clubs, Sing Chong, Chinese A.
c.; John Motley, White Sox; Fred
Luning, Aala A. c., and W. W. Mar
shall, Twilights.
The approval of the official lists by
the president was ratified, also all the
reports of the different officers. The
most encouraging report was that of
the treasurer, which showed nice bal
ance. Bill Prestidge, who has work ed
so hard for the league as manager, was
thanked officially
The request of the Twilights for a
few new players was unanimously al
lowed Marshall stated that, as cap
tain of this club, he has decided 30
take off the list one of the three Jo-
sephs, so as to enable the official scorer
to keep better track of the names.
Josephine was selected as the victim,
and so hereafter there will be only
Joseph and Josephat in the Twilights'
aggregation. Tony Medeiros, Butler
and Kalanui were permitted to wear
the Twilight colors, beginning next
Sunday.
With much regret, the members
listened to the remarks of President
Enos Vincent, who stated that as he
is going to remain in Maui permanent
ly, he has to resign from that office,
and asked that another man be Sc
lected to take up his duties. E. S.
Kong then, on behalf of the league,
thanked Vincent and wished him sue
cess in his new fields
The league next took up the matter
of a dance on New Years Eve. This
will be benefit affair, and after some
it was left in the hands of
the following members, who will act as
the committee in charge: VIII Pres
tidge, chairman; E. S. Kong, A. K.

MYRTLES WANT
ENTHUSIASM
Celebration Next Saturday Is
to Raise Enthusiasm and
Funds.

Members of the Myrtle Boat Clut
have good topic of conversation these
days in the big doings that they are
going to pull off at the Moana Hote
next Saturday evening. As everybody
knows, or should know, the affair viii
take the form of a chowder and a dance
afterward.
The word chowder, being usually as,
ISOLATED with concoction through
which two clans and three potatoes
have drifted, is perhaps hardly ade-
| quate as name for the big feed that
will be spread under the hau trees in
the hotel court. There will be, of course,
the main substratum of chowder, but
real chowder of the most luscious and
rib-sticking variety. 1t is whispered
that George Crozier will be pot -stirrer
IN chief for this part of the kaukau,
and when George looks after a chow
der, it elbows with great vehemence.
There is whole galaxy of charming
ladies who have offered to help with
the feed end of the entertainment.
They viii all contribute, and we may
look forward to a line of solids and
delicacies that will satisfy the appe-
tites of-well, of even the huskiest
oarsmen. Mrs. Alice Hastings and Mrs
A. F. Murphy have kindly consented to
act as leaders Of the chowder brigade
and let all good sportsmen with sisters,
cousins and aunts rally round to charge
upon the fair brigade IS defenses and
demolish them in the most appropriate
way possible.
The grounds, of course, will be decorat-
ed with electric lights, and there will be
an addition to the usual fairylike scene
by the Illuminated stunts of the Out
rigger Club that will be going on about
that time
The dance will begin at nine o clock,
and will be informal Dress suits are
not expected, and the more easy and,
perhaps, more effective costume of blue
coat and white ducks will be entirely
en- regle. ,t~s~ 4"s%@
The Rapid Transit Company has been
very accommodating, and there viii be
several late cars to take the dancers
nome affef everything is over, and
those who have the good sense to 90
will have danced themselves through
the jolliest evening they could wish for.
The object of the celebration is twd:
fold. One object is to raise funds to
aid in the second and principal object,
which is to buck up the sport of rowing
There is no doubt that rowing has been
languishing lately, and many keen
sportsmen Connected with the club wish
to revive it. There is no finer nor more
enjoyable exercise in the world and
certainly nowhere else is the sport so
well blessed with natural advantages
Everything is here except enthusiasm,
and here is the way to arouse it. BY
getting all the old and young oarsmen
together and having a delightful even
ing, the Myrtles very wisely hope to
rouse waning keenness and put the
grand sport where it belongs.
