The clouds look blaek. the glass Is
low;
The SCOT falls down, the spantels
sleep. e
And spiders from their cobwebs creep.
Last night the sun went pale to bed,
The moon in halos hid her head.
The boding shepherd sheaves a sigh.
For. see. a rainbow spans the sky:
The walls are damp. the bitches smell,
Closed Is the pick-eyed pimpernel.
Hark! How the chairs and tables
crack
Old Belts Joints are on the rack;
Loud quack the ducks, the peane peacock
cry;
The distant hills are looking nigh.
How restless are the snorting swine!
The busy, flies disturb the kline;
Low DER the grass the swallow wings
The cricket, too. how sharp he sings
Puss on the hearth, with velvet paws
Sits wiping Ger her whiskered jows
Through the clear stream the fishes
rise
And nimbly catch the incnutious flies
The glowworms numerous and bright
1llumed the dewy dell last night.
At dusk the squnlfd toad vas seen.
Hopping and crawling DER the green
The whirlinE wind the dust obeys,
And in the rapid eddy plays:
The frog has changed his yellow vest
And in a russell coat is dressed:
Though June the air Is cold and chill
The mellow blackbird's voice is shrill
My dog. SO altered in his taste.
Quits mutton bones, on grass to fenst
And see you rocks. how odd their
flight.
They initiate the gliding kite.
And headlong downward seem to fall
AS II they felt the piercing ball.
Twill surely rain: l e with SORROW
Our jaunt must be put of tomorrow

LUNDQUIST TO
CARE FOR BOATS

The attention of local yachtsmen is
called to the fact that the Yacht Club
has secured the services of Alex. Lund-
quist, who is now in charge of the
yacht Hawaii He is very capable
sailorizer, and good worker, and
some of the yacht owners would do
well to arrange to have him look after
their boats.
1t is reported that several of the
craft down at Pearl HarbOr are either
being sadly neglected or receiving no
attention from their owners at all.
1t is said that decks are cracking, hall
yards rotting and other undesirable
things happening.
Alex. was one of the crew of the
yacht Hawaii on the race, and he
proved himself very efficient sailor
at that time, and has since shown his
knowledge of how to take care of a
craft properly in every way. 1t might
perhaps be worth the while of some of
the owners to look into this matter.

REILLY AND SMITH

Reilly, Leahv and frankie Smith
will leave on the Alameda for San

a possibility that Reilly and Smith
will appear, here in December. They
were offered $500 purse and round
trip tickets on the steamer if they
would take the Alameda arriving here
December and box fifteen rounds.
Both lads accepted. but Reilly after
wards thought it over and added that
he would not come if any of the Coast
promoters were rushing to offer him a
big purse.

SURPRISE IN
SECOND ROUND
Second Days Tennis Play for
Doubles Championship
Fast and Clever.

There was one surprise sprung yes
terday on the Beretania courts in the
second round of the doubles tennis tour
nament. It was the easy victory of
W. L. Warren and A. r. Cunha over
Harold Castle and F. E. Steere. The
latter team made only one score that
looked as though they could possibly
win and that was the third set which
they won by rs. Of the other three
sets two were lost go and one 60.
Warren and Cunha played in splen-
did form and deserved their victory
for their fine team work and sureness
of return. For the losers it must be
said that they put up very hard game
but neither played in the form they
showed in the last tournament at Maui.
c. G.. Bockus and J. T. Guard did
not finish their match with the Richards
father and son. The first set went to
the latter by 6-3 and the next two to
the former GA, Ga. The next set stood
at GuIt0 dll W ucu II was utCIucd W dO1b
on account of darkness.
The results of yesterdays playing
were: On the Pacific courts: A. L.
Castle and Cooke beat Comes and Ath-
erton, 81, 60, 81; Rabbit and Viii
Hanson beat Forster and Harwood, 60,
Ga, so.
On the Beretania courts: Warren and
Cunha beat Harold Castle and Steere,
so, 60, 81, 60; Theo Richards and J.
A Richards VS. Bockus and Guard stood
6-3, 40, 4-6, 3-3, when the players quit.
This afternoon at O'Clock, on the
Pacific courts A. L. Castle and Cooke
will play Rabbit and Williamson. On
the Beretania courts the Richards vs..
Bockus and Guard match will be played
off and the winners will play Warren

KILLS BRADLEY

NEW YORK, Oct. l0.-Al Kaufman
of San Francisco knocked out Fred
Bradley of Boston in the fourth round
of what was to have been a six-round
90 at the National Athletic Club here
last night. The men fought at catch
weights, Kaufman being about twenty
pounds the heavier.
The battle. which was a gruelling one
throughout, was witnessed by a large
crowd. Kaufman in the first round,
with left and right to head, put Bradley
to the floor twice. Bradley took the
count on the second bnockdown, but
he got up strong and stayed Kaufman
off to the bell.
Bradley came mp fresh for the second
round and succeeded, after a rally in
leading with his left on Kaufman $
head. Bradley had the better of the
round.
In the third Bradley was still full Of

EN- SUE FASTEST
SHORT SPRINTER

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 13.-The re,
ports which reached here some time
ago concerning the wonderful fast time
credited TO En- Sue, the Chinese sprinter
who won the ffty-yard dash in O:5 2-5
seconds at field day held in Honolulu,
are given considerable support by Har.
-ry Mckenzie, of Santa Clara College,
who recently returaed from the islands,
where he visited with the college base
ball team that won the championship of
the Honolulu League. Mckenzie, in
speaking of the ability of the Oriental
claims that he is wonderfully fast, and
that the men who held the watches on
En- Sue all agreed that he travelled the
fifty yards in record time.
En- Sue is one of five brothers who
have made a great reputation as base
ball players of exceptional ability. At
third base En- Sue has no equal in the
Honolulu League, and there was but
little choice between the Chinese player
and A. Shafter, of the Santa Clara team
when it came to running bases, and Sha-
fer can run some. En- sue is described
by Mckenzie as being small, but well
proportional, and of the ideal build
for a Splinter. In the 100-yard dash
the islander has not done so well, being
defeated by sailor from the Atlantic
fleet in 0:10 3-5 at the time the battle
ship stopped at Honolulu.

ALIIOLANIS VS..

There will be a practise game of
soccer this afternoon at half past one
between the Rapid Transit and Ali
o1ani college teams on the latter s
ground. All Rapid Transit players who
have not received notice are requested
to be there on time.
The boys of the school are said to
have a mighty fast aggregation of ball
kiekers and will surely be able to give
the grownups a run for their money, or
rather for their practise. When the
school league starts up the lads from
Kaimuki will doubtless be heard from.

In 1898 he was chosen presi-
dent of the Republican state
convention and conducted its
meetings and business with such
signal fairness and ability as to
win the unqualified praise of all
present.
He was elected delegate to
the national Republican con-
vention in 1900, after a spirited
contest in which an able and
very popular opponent was ar
rayed against him.
For two years he served as
regent Of our state university.
In 1902, at the age Of "a, he
was elected to the supreme
bench of the state of Idaho.
His career on the bench has
been marked by the most de-
cided appreciation of the bench,
the bar and the public. His
opinions have been terse, vig-
orous and judicial andinvariably
arrived at without fear or fa-
vor and in strict accordance
with the law and evidence.
Since he has been on the bench
there have been vastly more
questions constituting the state
constitution confronting the
court than during any previous
like period in it's history. His
insistence that foreign corpora
tions, in particular should not
be allowed to arrogate to them
selvesunchallenged, ,illegitimate
power and influence has proven
a boon and a blessing to the
state and proven, too, that

tinction and an honor which ex-
cites a natural and legitimate
curiosity on the part Of the
public in the personality of the
man thus favored. Chief JUS
tice of Idaho, James F. Ailshie,
a man who easily, naturally and
snugly fits the honor that falls
to him, a man whom the peo-
pie are confident will gracefully
respond to every demand upon
his difficult and delicate station
and because he is a jurist by
learning and experience, a man
morally brave, as incorruptible
as honor, one whom no force
can frighten, no influence CO.
cree, no money buy. He is en-
phatically the right sort Of tim
ber for his exalted Office.
Judge Ailshie first came to
Idaho twenty years ago and has
been a force in the moral, in
telectual and material life of
Idaho since 1891, when he To-
Gated in Grangeville and began
the practice of law. He made
forced marches to success in
his profession and was soon rec
ognzied by the bench and bar
of the state as one of its lead
ing lawyers.
He has always been a staunch
and storm tried Republican and,
prior to his elevation to the
bench he never failed to give
most timely and effective SER
vice to his party during a cam
paign.
