Clouden Stebbins, who has been con-
fined to his home for several weeks by
grip and stomach trouble, is reported
slowly on the mend.
Both wagon factories are closed down
and as there is nothing doing at the to-
bacco warehouses, there is plenty of
idleness in our city at present.
A telegram was received here Friday
morning from John Pierson, a Chicago
undertaken, announcing the violent
death of Anton Anderson of Stoughton.
He was a man about 25 years of age, a
member of the local Woodmen lodge and
also of the Foresters. He went to Chi
cago to work in the shops. His father
was former tenant on the Green farm
in the town OF Dunn.
And. Guam, residing near this city,
was found lying intoxicated and appar-
emily unconscious on the Edgerton road
six or seven miles from town, by couple
of men, and after consultation with the
town chairman, carriage was procured
and he was, conveyed to this city. AS
one of his legs was found to be bruised,
refused to enter, however, and he was
thereupon given lodging in the jail.
After SOLDERING up he explained that he
and companion were on their way back
from Edgerton, and that he must have
! fallen out of the rig without his partner
noticing it, one of the wheels presum-
ably passing over and bruising his leg.
| In view of the zero temperature during
the night there would no doubt have
been another case of freezing to death
| had he not been found.

Mr. VIM Armstrong, postmaster at
London and one of the most widely
known citizens in this part Of the state,
died at his place of abode last Sunday
night after brief illness, at the age OF
81 years. MIR Armstrong was born in
North of Ireland in 1910 and came to
this country when boy with his par
ents, who settled at Kroghville on the
farm now owned by Herman Woelffer
When young man he worked for a time
in a bank at Hamilton, Ohio, but re-
turned to London in 1881 to enter into
business with his brother, Archibald
and Samuel Brown. With the excep
ton of three years spent at Brandon
where he was engaged in the banking
business, London has always been nis
home. Mr. Armstrong always lived the
life of bachelor. He was good bust
ness man, his moral character was above
reproach, was liberal supporter of the
church and charitable enterprises, ane
was kind hearted to a marked degree.

KI SAYS He SHOT
yEE IN SELF DEFENSE

Ki, the Korean who was arrested
few nights ago for shooting another
Korean named Yee Sing, stated to Chief
of Detectives Kalakiela last evening
that he shot Yee Sing in self defense,
claiming that zee tried to kill him with
butcher knife. The knife was found
in front of Mr.. Denison Is house the
following morning, where the shooting
occurred.
"Pity for my child caused me to
search for the place where zee Sing
had hid my wife from me-" said XII.
~ followed him all around town that
night, not wishing to harm him, but to
find where he was keeping my wife"
He admitted that he had revolver,
but was unused to such implements of
warfare. When the two men came to-
gether at the corner of Wilder avenue
and Makiki street, they had long con
versation, zee admitting that he was
living with Kis wife. Yee pulled a
butcher knife when the argument be-
came heated and made slash at XII,
and at that time XII pulled the revolver
and fred at zee.

FARE
TO PEARL HARBOR

With the extension Of the Oahu Rail-
way company's line to the entrance
to the Pearl Harbor reservation comes
the rumor that along with the 12-min-
ute service between town and the
Naval Station, there will also be re-
duction in the passenger rate. In addi-
ton there is another rumor that the
company will bring its line further in
to town, across the Nuuanu bridge and
establish passenger station close to
Nuuanu avenue.
| AS to the passenger rate it is said
that for the benefit of the navy yard
employees, officers and men, commute
ton tickets will be sold and by this
means the rate will be brought down
as low as seven or eight cents for the
single trip, either way.
This may mean that the Oahu Rail
way company means to fight for its
passenger business in view of the pro
posed competition of the Rapid Transit
company which announces that 1t will
build track from its present Fort
Shafter terminus direct to the navy
yard, equipping the system with the
finest rolling stock.
The only track-laying work neces
sary for the o. r. & l.. Co., to do il
to lay a spur from the main line to
the reservation, or about 700 or 800
feet. The Rapid Transit company viii
have to lay an entire new track upoI
a newly built roadway from town t.
the reservation.
Tt is also within the realm of possibil
ity that the railroad company may
parallel their steam system with al
electric one as far as the new navy
yard, if the competition demands more
frequent runs than the steam trains
can make. Such an undertaking would
not be a great task; the right of.way
is secured and surveys made and build
ling material could be dumped without
trouble and minimum of expense a
any point desired.

PUNAHOUS PLAY
UP TO PROMISE
(From Sundays Advertiser.)
Punahou, /; Y. M. @. A, 1.
Male, 2; Diamond Head, 0.

The Punahous certainly made good
yesterday afternoon. 1t is true that
they did not actually defeat the Y. NJ.
G. AS. but they tied with them and
made it mighty hard for the young men
from start to finish.
Mon Yin was the forward who scored
the one goal for the Punahous which
he did after a magnificent run down
the field. He did not make the mistake
of shooting too soon, but ran right up
to the goal and fairly forced the ball
through. Later on in the game he got
away again but was unfortunately laid
out by a charge and the breath knocked
out of him. Had it not been for this
untoward event, there is little doubt
that he would have scored again.
The Males defeated the Diamond
Heads comparatively easily. They were
attacking all the time and made shot
after shot at goal but, owing to the
perfectly wonderful Bookkeeping of
Bob Chillingworth, they scored only
twice and one of those times Bob al
lowed the ball to go through from a
free kick, thinking that it must touch
a player before the score could count.
The Punahous were a very different
aggregation ol looJpdilers lroHl uhe one
that turned out last time. They had
fine defense and a very strong attack.
Their forwards were kept well fed and
did not have to do their own clearing
before they could start on a run. Fra
zier played in goal during the second
half and stopped some hard shots by
the young men otherwise the latter
might well have scored.
Both games were very fast and ex-
citing although the second game lacked
interest during the second half as the
Males had it so obviously over their
opponents. The Male attack was good
in every respect. There were no selfish
plays and their forwards never froze
onto the ball too long.
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1908-12-15
THE FIRST GAME.

The Punahous started with the wind
in their favor. AS matter of fact
the breeze came nearly across the field
but occasional hard puffs blew down
the field and gave decided advantage
to the side playing in that direction.
For few minutes the Punahous threat.
ened, Jock Cation shot and forced a
corner but nothing came of it and the
red shirts cleared
Three times in succession the Puma,
hous threatened and then Macconel
got away and conferred to Brown who
shot high. Then the reds forced a cor
ner but Mon Yin got away down the
field but failed on the shoot. Then fol,
lowed a series of rushes by the red
forwards all of which failed and again
the Panahous cleared and their for
wards went foraging in Y. NJ. c. A.
territory.
For the next fifteen minutes of play
the ball was scooting backwards and
forwards, now in front of the red goal
and now threatening the Punahous but
there was no score until half minute
before half time.
The red forwards got away in con-
certed rush and sent across to Macconel
who swerved in from the sideline across
to the front of the goal and shot high
and hard. The ball shaved the under
side of the bar and fell into the net.
Then the whistle blew for half time.
The Second Half.
The Punahous started off with rush
and Mon Yin cleared for run. He
passed to Wilmington who sent to Jock
Cation and the latter shot hard but
Richard saved. Then the reds took @
hand at the threatening game and soon
had the Punahous worried but Grubbie
and Dodge who were both playing
splendid games, cleared eventually and
the ball went to midfeld.
Then it was that Mon Yin saw his
chance and he took it. Going at full
speed. he gathered the ball to him and
dribbled, lodging as he ran until he
had passed the entire red back line
and they could not overtake him. He
waited until he was close to the goa
and then gave the ball a final ROO
that sent it twirling into the net.
Shortly after this Mon had the sam,
opportunity and The started off again
Only Swift was opposing him, and i
looked as though the speedy it'll,
Chinaman would dodge the big rec
shirt. but the latter charged him of
the ball and, in so doing, laid Mon ou
for few minutes. The charge wa
considered foul by Bob Anderson an,
free kick was awarded to the Pu
nahous, but nothing came of it, AM
there was no more scoring during tn
game.
Mon Yin made several more attempt
during the latter part Of the half, blu
all his shots missed or were caught b.

than four corners given against the

Webb and Frank Godfrey. It is true
that Auguste Kalbe was also entered,
but the latter failed to define the diff
ference between walking and running
and so was disqualified.
Frank Godfrey went into the race
in pure spirit of sport. His name
was turned in, it seems, unbeknown to
him, but when he saw it in the Adj
vertiser yesterday morning he deter
mined to go in. He found, as he says,
two professional athletes against him

and runner in Australia, and Kalbe, a

Mr.. Godfrey is an oldtime newspa-

put up splendid race against Webb,
who, however, was trifle too spry
for him. and the veterans finished
close together in the remarkable time
of twenty-five minutes.
8 Credit to Lewis.
A great deal of credit for the sue
cess of the event is due to Mr.. Lewis
of the Auto Livery Company and the
courteous chauffeur, Bill Meyers. Mr..
Lewis loaned machine for the press
md judges, and without this conve-
nience the proper running of the race
would have been an impossibility.
Mike Patton, Jack Scully and Au-
guste Reinecke acted as judges and
starters, and there was not single
slip in any of their work. The races
were started well on time and with.
out any pilikia, and the only infringe
ment of the rules was summarly
Jumped on.
The police had hard time keeping
the road clear, but they performed
their duties to the entire satisfaction
of all the contestants and they got
through hard morning without any
trouble, something which calls for n
considerable amount of agility and
diplomacy in dealing with an eager
crowd like the one that was there to
watch the race.

Matt Was Not There.

Matt Heffern's detection did not
make hit with his friends. He it
was who asked to have the race start
ed an hour sooner than scheduled. as
he had date at half.past eleven, and,
at some considerable Inconvenience,
this was done. The interest in the
race attached principally to the rival
ry between him and Lambert. and the
crowd made no bones about expressing
itself very strongly on the subject.
Otto Winkler and Bob Ingersoll
both walked a good race. Neither
one of these big, jolly fellows had had
a minute of preparation yet they
strobe sturdily along and were not so
awfully far behind the invineible
Charles at the finish. Tt is pleasing TO
note that. owing TO the paucity of
heavyweight arrivals, they each get a
prize, and Il anybody deserves it, they
surely do.
