MULTITUDE AT
MIDWAY TONIGHT

Final arrangements have been
made for the big double pull at the
Hawaiian Midway this evening. when
the o. X. & l.. negro team, captained
by erase, and the much-talked- Jap
anese team struggle for victory on
the tug-of-war platform and the Ho-
nolulu and the Poola teams go at It
for the betterment. The dark gentle
men have been practicing most care
fully and have been In thorough
training with view to pulling the
Japanese down the corrugated plane,
but the Japanese, on the other hand,
say that II is up to them to show
that they possess the science Of pull
ing, and the champion Japanese
wrestler, Mizuka, the Japs' anchor
man, has conhdentially informed his
friends that the Japanese will put 1t
all over the negroes.
The Honolulus, the famous former
Roads and Bridges team, and the Po-
olas, the powerful stevedores, are
likewise both confident of success and
there is no telling where or how the
teams stand until after tonight's
great double pull at the Midway, mid
way between Alakea and Richards
streets, below Queen,

liter A LONG FIGHT
DOCUMENT RECORDED

The deed and judgment by which
the Waterhouse property at Waikiki
was transferred to the United States
of America were yesterday filed for
record with Registrar Merriam.
These are the copveyances over
which was fought the long fight as
to whether, under the amended law,
the Registrar could be required to
record maps and plars, the statute
providing for their, "filing" in his
office. This deed and judgment, each
of which contained a map of the prop
erty conveyed, was rendered to Mer-
riam to be recorded, and were by him
refused for record under this statute
Mandamus proceedings were begun to
compel him to record them. Judge
Dole refused the mandamus, holding
that the law did not require the Regis
trar to record maps but only to file
them.
An appeal was taken by the United
States to the Circuit Court of Appeals
for the Ninth Circuit, and Judge Dole
was there reversed, and it was direct.
ed that the mandamus should issue.
The formal writ, which is a bulky docu.
ment, setting forth the proceedings in
the case and the Judgment of the court
was served on Registrar Merriam day
before yesterday by United States
Marshal Hendry. The deed and judg
ment were then filed for record and
will be recorded in due course.
The deed is dated July 8, 1905, and
the judgment July a. 1905. Thus il
is nearly three years since the docu'
ments were first offered for record.

COLORADO'S SILVER SERVICE
FRANCISCO
formally presented

The Denver Post of August 4 de-
scribes the silver service as follows:
1t takes more than a silver punch
bowl to express Colorado's appreciation
of the honor of having mighty cruiser
named for her.
Colorado is the first State to give n
complete dinner set to the vessel which
takes her name.
Although it took considerable time
to accumulate the funds for an appro-
pirate gift to the Colorado, the silver
service is so handsome that it will long
be the talk of the country. The last
Legislature appropriated $4,000, by pop
ular subscription 5000 was raised, and
The Post made up the deficit, so that
the bid of $4,000 by Syman Brothers
could be covered.
Less than two months ago the con
tract was awarded after competitive
bids had been submitted. The cruiser
committee is composed of former Gov
ernor Jesse Mcdonald, former Govern
or Alva Adams, Meyer Friedman, John
McDonough, Henry Russell Ray and
Governor ii. A. Buchtel.
This committee will go to San Fran
cisco, where, August %, the formal
presentation will be made.
The set which Colorado will present
to the cruiser is in the old Paul Revere
pattern. For simplicity and elegance
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1908-10-09

it was selected. The design is named
for Revere, who was a silversmith be-
fore he became hero, immortalized
by Longfellow.
Thirty.six persons can be served a
complete dinner with the service Of
the Colorado. There are 597 pieces,
each one bearing Colorado's coat-of-
arms embossed upon it, from pattern
large enough to look well on the steak
platter to one which the small coffee
spoons will accommodate.
There are 5000 ounces of silver in
the service, which includes two candle
labra, two covered entree dishes, two
covered vegetable dishes, six compotes,
two fish platters, two meat platters,
two serving trays, four bread trays,
thirty-six service plates, two water
pitchers, one after-dinner coffee pot,
one sugar bowl, one cream pitcher, one
coffee pot, one teapot, one waste bowl,
one teakettle, one waiter, eighteen salts
and peppers, seventytwo spoons, thirty
six dessert forks, thirty-six table forks,
eighteen table spoons, thirty.six des-
