MAJOR COLLIER
MAY COME HERE

There is more than possibility
that Major Collier, John O'Rourkes
crack Hawaiian-bred racer, will be
shipped to Honolulu in the near flu
ture. His owner is out with a state
ment that he is willing to back Ma
jor Collier against Adion for $1,000.
1t is understood that Adon has
found friends during the past week
and that a match at, a mile and a
quarter for a thousand side will
shortly be made, the race to run on
the Kapiolani Park track.
1t is to be hoped that the race will
come off as stated for Honolulu has
not had a real horse race for a long
time and the match proposed looks
like furnishing as memorable a con-
test as has been witnessed in the
history of the Hawaiian turf.

tionally has filled an important role on the
worlds stage. Although he is a great
preacher. he has been distinctly a man of

Mr.. Taft. although less impulsive than
his predecessor. is regarded as a man of
great capacity and moral strength conse-
quently he is characterized as a safer

were aroused and he asked the Greek how
it came into his possession The Greek re-
