An EXPLANATION,

Our names having been used in pub
lie utterances at the Sunday taber-
nacle, and in print in such manner
that justified reply from us, we de-
sire in fairness to certain parties con-
cerned, to say that in response to so-
licitation, we have held conference
with these parties that resulted in our
having accepted their explanations
that we were misunderstood. and hav.
ing received public and private apol
ogies that were satisfactory to us, in
consequence will make no reply.
We make this statement in justice
to ourselves, partially because these
said utterances have gone broadcast
over Iowa and elsewhere, and without
explanation for public denial from
US, we would stand condemned in the
opinion of some of whom we are
strangers

The lnter-Island championship track
meet which will be held tomorrow aft
ernoon on the Boys Field will give the
lovers of Athletic sports a chance TO
see how many good athletes we have in
| the islands.
Some of the best athletes from each
school and college in town have enter
ed for the many track and field events
and it is safe to predict that many
island records will be shattered.
Probably the two most interesting
events on the programme will be the
so yard special race and the 100 yard
dash.
Such men as En- Sue, John Lo, Mac
kenzie, Lyman, Pa and Carey have
entered for these two races, and it is
safe to say that the winner will nave
to run very fast to win.
En- Sue, who holds the worlds record
for so yards in is seconds will try
! mis- best to at least equal it.
He also will give the others entered
in the 100 a good race, as he it at his
best in the sprints.
Mackenzie ought to finish in the
broad jump ahead of the other en-.
trants, as he broke the island RECORD
in the games held last Saturday anC
it is understood that he has done still
better in training.
The Y M. C. A. team that is enter
ed has a number of good men in it
ranks, and should be able to carr!
off some of the events. The Kane
hameha team s-ould win the troph!
for points, as they have the best mel
in their team, but the other teams will
make them go very hard to win.
