AT meeting of the committee APP
pointed to arrange details of tie next
walkingfest, held yesterday afternoon,
it was definitely decided that the big
race, growing out of Ayres challenge
to Dick Sullivan, as result of the first
race, should take place over the Kala-
kaua avenue course on the afternoon
of Sunday, January II, starting at 2:30
o clock.
The time of the race has been chang
ed from the morning to the afternoon
in order not to conflict with the church
services.
Starters in this race will be Sullivan,
Densham, Cheatham and Ayres. There
will also be those walkers who success
fully compete in the elimination race
to be held on Sunday, January 10, at
, p. m, over the same course. COMPETE
tors who cover the course in nineteen
minutes or less will be eligible to start
in the big race the following Sunday.

WOULD SELL
LEAGUE ASSETS

Paul Isenberg of the Board of Trus-
tees of the Baseball League expressed
himself rather forcibly yesterday on
the cold-footed attitude of the local
league players with reference to the re-
turn of the Reach All-Ameriean team
from the Orient and the agreement to
play a series of games here. He feels
that the "holding-off" tactics of the
PLAYERS makes it look as if the trustees
would be held up to the tune of $500,
the guarantee to the Mique Fisher ag--
gregation.
eff the local players don It want to
get in and hustle cut team to meet
the Fisher crowd" said Mr.. Isenberg
yesterday afternoon, "then we might
as well see the Rapid Transit people,
cancel our baseball business, sell the
grandstand, and go out of business en-
tirely. I'm in just the frame of mind
today to say, Let IS throw up the whole
business once and for all. -

SULLIVAN WILL
ISSUE CHALLENGE

Dick Sullivan, who goes to HIo by
the steamer Mauna Kea today, to take
part in walking race with Ayres and
others on New Years Day, may do
some boxing in Hilo should opportunity
ifer.
Sullivan doesn't know what fstic
talent there is in Hilo, but will publish
a challenge on his arrival to any man
of his weight on Hawaii for limited
round contest. Dick says that if he
has to give away few pounds he won t
mind; in fact, will gladly do so in order
TO make a match.
If there is anyone clever enough in
Hilo to make anything like showing
with Sullivan, the sports would get
their moneys worth, even though the
bout were only of an exhibition nature.

MAJOR CUNNING
PRESENTS TROPHY

Major Dunning is a good patron of
clean sport and his influence in pro-
noting athletics among the men at Fort
Shafter is felt. The Twentieth expects
to put strong nine in the field this
season and to bring out the talent and
develop all the latent baseball ircli-
nations there may be among the men
of the four companies, the Major has
presented a silver cup to be competed
for by mines from each of the com
panies. In this way the baseball inter
est is considerably heightened at Fort
Shafter and some hard games will be
played for the silverware. The series
will start within a few days.
Fort Shafter has been handicapped In
the games played in by that team from
the fact that among the men heretofore
has been no catcher equal to holding
down the good twirler they had. Now,
however, among the recent recruits to
the post is young man from Monterey
who promises to be tower of strength
TO the nine. With a capable battery
such as the soldiers now have. their
baseball nine should be heard from this
coming spring and summer.

ROLLERS PARTNER
DENVER ED. MARTIN

August Reineeke received an interest
ing letter from DR.. Roller yesterday.
The athletic medico stated that he
was giving all his attention to boxing
and did not intend to do anything in
the wrestling line unless something easy
was in sight.
He is feeling fine, as the following
extract from his letter shows:
"Peter Baron had me in good shape
in Honolulu but you ought to see me
now My weak wrist is absolutely
O. K"
Roller is boxing four rounds every
day with Denver Ed. Martin, than
whom no better mentor could be found.
The big pugilist has proved stumbling
block to more aspirants TO pugilistic
fame than any other man in the game
today. tt is generally conceded that
with little more heart Martin might
have won the biggest prize that the
ring has to offer.
J. J. Corbett called on Roller while
in Seattle and saw him at work with
Denver Ed. He expressed his opinion
that Roller was a wonder for a big
man and said that under Martin IS tute-
lage the doctor should be able TO hcld
his own with the best of them.

NJ MAHON WILL
ENTER CONTEST
Unbeaten Walker Is Seeking
Fresh HOnors at Hiking
Game.

A prominent competitor in the elm
ination walking race which will take
place on the 10th inst. will be P.
Maurice Mcmahon, the Irish athlete and
poet.
Mcmahon used to do the mile walk in
better than eight and a half minutes
and was never beaten in walking race.
In Honolulu in January 1897 Nc
Mahon ran the 44O and SSO-yards runs
at the sports held at Kapiolani park,
The races followed each other without
intermission which made the perform
ance all the more remarkable.
On the road in Hilo in 1898 Mcmahon
ran 40 yards in 1914, defeating Nor
man Lyman, the best quarter miller on
Hawaii, by dozen yards. The race
was run on a straightaway track and
the time was the fastest ever made for
the distance in the islands. The time
keepers were Messrs. Ross, Bob Forest
and a third, all of whose watches
agreed. The track was specially meas
ured by Surveyor Baldwin of Hilo, so
that there is no doubt that Mcmahon
ran the full course.
The reason Mcmahon insisted on the
track being measured was that the year
before when he won The same race the
timers credited him with a world Is rec
ord. The track, however, was found to
be many yards short of quarter Of
mile.
Mcmahon has been out of active ath-
letics for several years but has kept
himself in good shape and believes that
he can render good account of HIM
self in the coming walking contests.

ever, insist that these Russians came
ashore yesterday on the Malibu ranch
and are probably safe, but the same
story of three missing Russians is also
told at the Japanese headquarters,
conducted by H. Sano, Port Los An
geles, and great anxiety seems to be
felt for their safety.
The japanese report this morning
that three of their boats were totally
wrecked and five were beached. One
was smashed to kindling wood against
the piles of the Horseshoe pier, and the
other was ground to pieces at Venice.
Three or four boats are on the beach
at Venice this morning; at Long
Beach Fred LangwOrth s launch is
ashore, and near HOLSTER avenue the
Phillips. a naphtha launch, is also high
and dry, out of reach of the waves.
All the japanese fishermen who were
able to find boats in which to work
were again out at sea this morning,
undaunted by their experience and
narrow escape yesterday. The sea is
calm, however, without the least sign
of the fury in which it has just in
dulged.
George Freeth, who passed nearly
two hours in the ocean yesterday af-
ternoon saving japanese fishermen,
was about the Windward avenue pier
this morning apparently as well as
ever. Other members of the life-sav-
ing crew were also out, unaffected by
their hard experience in the water.

LIFE SAVER GEORGE FREETH
DOES MORE HEROIC WORK

VENICE, December 17.-More than
800 was raised for the Venice volun-
teer hfesaving crew at a benefit given
last night in the banquet-room of the
Ship hotel, under the auspices of the
philanthropy committee of the Pick
and Shovel Club.
Mrs. j. A. Brown, as chairman of
that committee, had supervision of
the general arrangements. Members
of nearly all the clubs in the beach
district, however, eoOperated in the
entertainment, and others rendered ma
terial aid.
The heroic work of the crew in res
euing eleven japanese fishermen from
the surf yesterday afternoon aroused
unusual enthusiasm in the lifesavers.
A generous collection for Captain
George Freeth, who saved seven of
the japanese with little assistance,
was taken in the afternoon.

SANTA MONICA, December IT,
Three Russian fishermen, who left Port
Los Angeles yesterday before the

petition off Point Duma on the Malibu
ranch, are reported missing this morn
ing at the japanese fishmarket of s.
Hattori, Port Los Angeles, and men
have been sent out on a searching
party after them.

will take place the latter end of Febru-
airy or the beginning of March.
Manager st. Clair Bidgood of the
Haleiwa Hotel has offered a beautiful
trophy for such race, and there is no
doubt that there viii be good num-
Der of entries.
The race will be one of the most
novel and interesting pedestrian events
that has ever been pulled off in the
Territory, and is likely to excite inter
est all over the Islands.
This event will probably conclude the
seasons pedestrian program, as the
warm weather will make such contests
too trying during the spring and sum
mer months.

DOG MEN ARE
TALKING SHOW

The Hawaiian Kennel Club will hold
their annual meeting at the end of next
month. At this meeting the matter of
the next bench show will be taken up.
The show which was planned to be
held during the visit of the Atlantic
feet fell through and local fanciers are
anxious that an exhibition be arranged
as soon as possible.
If the proposition to hold county
fair in Honolulu comes to anything
there is little doubt that the Kennel
Club will cooperate with the Poultry
Association and other societies in the
carrying out of the affair.

SHARK TAKES
ARCHES HOOK
Robertson and George Harris
Meet With Exciting
Experience.

Archie Robertson and George Harris
had remarkable experience while fish
ing in deep water off Diamond Head
on Sunday morning.
The fish had not bitten well all the
morning for some reason, despite the
fact that the tide was right and the
sea very calm.
Presently Robertson hooked fish
which took his line away faster than he
could pay it out. In order not to lose
the fish, which was thought to be big
ulua, the line was passed to a native
at one end of the canoe in order that
he might fasten it to his line and by
so doing give the fish more play.
A wicked rush followed and then
about fifty yards from the canoe a
shark leaped clear of the water, falling
back on the surface with a tremendous
splash. The shark repeated these tao
ties three times, after which the line
Stacked and the great fish was not
seen again.
The shark, which was about ten feet
in length, had evidently seized the fish
on Robertson's hook and ,bolted three
other hooks and a sinker as well. This
must have occasioned him some discom-
fort and caused him to breach in an
effort to shake the tormenting steel
from his jaws or gullet.
The presence of the shark was I'M
doubsedly responsible for the fish not
biting better. The whole days catch
consisted of three red woke weighing
six or seven pounds, three fair sized
ulua and big squid, which strangely
enough took a baited hook

Sam Hop, Hang Chack and many

Since the last race the course has
been gone over number of times by
intending competitors in the next race
and some very good times have been
made.
There will be no entrance fee for
either race.
There will be no prizes given for the
elimination race, but for the race on
the following Sunday the Honolulu
Brewing and Mailing Company have of
fered a handsome cup Another offer
of a prize has come from B. F. Ehlers
& Co. in the shape of a So merchandise
order.
AS large a prize list as possible will
be obtained, and local merchants who
are not approached on the subject
should not think themselves sighted,
but notify Messrs Denskam or Cheat
ham, or the Advertiser office, of what
they are willing to donate in the shape
of prizes in order to encourage the
noble art of walking.
Entries for the elimination race must
be sent to the Advertiser Office not
later than p. m. of January g.
Entries for the race proper must be
sent to the Advertiser office not later
than P. m. of January 16.
There viii be four judges for each
race, and C. G. Bartlett and Jack Scully
have already consented to act in this
capacity. The other two officials have
yet to be chosen.
There will be two other contests on
January II, veterans race and fat
man S race, both of which will take
place over the same course. The age
limit in the veteran s race will be six
ty years. The weight limit in the fat
men IS race win be 200 pounds. There
will be no elimination trials in either

Judging from the interest which has
developed in walking since the last
race, these races should all reeve good
entries and provide an afternoon of
splendid, wholesome sport.

FINE EXHIBIT
 FUR COCH|SE
 AT CONGRESS
To Be Held at Albuquerque Active Preparations Being Made at Douglas to Secure Collection of Ores.

DOUGLAS, Aug 29.-( Special )-- Steps are making actively for the
 Steps are making actively for the sending of a fine exhibit Of the min ing industries of Cochise county and of Sonora to Albuquerque and to the Mining Congress at Columbus and present indications are that this sec ton will have, as 1t should have, one of the finest exhibits ever brought to- gether from 8 district of similar size.
 At the Thursday night meeting of the subcommittee on mining of the Chamber of Commerce and Mines the matter was again taken mp and gone into thoroughly, but the meeting end ed in real action and not in mere talk. Secretary Gerhart explained the ideas of the committee, of which he was appointed chairman on his recent visit to Bisbee. and told what had al ready been accomplished and what was desired He explained what exhibits had been received and what were ex- pected and stated that the Transyaal company exhibit had been shipped from Cumpas and would be here within a few days. It was decided to seno two representative through the districts to the south of here immediately trih- utary to Douglas to gather specimens and obtain funds from as many as pos Sble properties for the exhibit will not be limited to merely producing mines but will cover prospects as well. It will be gotten up from the utility standpoint to appeal to the mining man not from that of beauty alone.
 Representatives Chosen.
 Charles A. Romadka, in charge Of the Fl Globo interests here, was chos- en to visit the camps about Nacozari, Cumpas and Moctezuma and no better choice could have been made, for he has a wide acquaintance with the min ing men of those districts and is a brother miner owner with them. There is little doubt of his obtaining fine lot of specimens. He will leave on Tuesday on his mission and donates his time and efforts, the committee merely defraying his necessary tray cling expenses. H. c. Stillman, @ho will visit the Fl Tigre country on the same mission, was an equally fortunate choice, for he is one of the oldest and best known miners of southern Ari- zona and northern Sonora, was one of the first superintendents at the Copper Queen smelter and has the confidence of all the mining men and mine owners of the Fl Tigre country, as well as avery where else in this vicigty. He also gives his services. The Representative to visit Cananea has not yet been selected, but will be in the next few days. Thus a rep resentative exhibit will be assured from Ehe upper Sonora country.
 The Copper Queen and C. & A. com panies have already promised fine specimens.
 Exhibitors Benefited.
