Stakes. Weber was only &c days in
training as he got TO Hilo on May II
and was in quarantine for eleven days
after he arrived.
Suppose Louis Warren's horse
Warning had won, would the judges
have ordered the race run over again?
Had they done so every paper in the
Territory would have called the judges
all the robbers they could think Of.
If there was any pulling done at the
meeting it was by the Honolulu own
ers as my horses won all the races
they started in.

of my boys got in Jail and the boy
Drolette whom I brought down from

Of her races.

will be such purses given by anyone

six horses and when they found that
they couldn't win race they began
to howl, pull the joclies off and run
the race over again.
ct see by the papers that the Maui
people are going to fix up their track
for big meeting next Fourth of July
and intend to give good purses. If
they do I will take a stable of horses
over there and win all the races just
to let them see that l can beat them

PROGRAM Of
RIVERSIDERS

The two games at Aala Park tomor-
row afternoon will bring the first Sc
ries of the Riverside League to an
end and it is certain that large crowd
will be on hand. The first game will
be played between the Aalas and the
Palamas and in the second a,
Kewalos will have a chance with the
aggregation of roadpounders from
Fort Shafter.
The first game will be of great in
terest to the fans, as the result will
change the standing of the league a
good deal. Should the Palamas de-
feat the Eheu kids, it will mean that
Lieut.. Bowen's bunch will have all
the chance in this world for the cham
pionship of the first series. but, on
the other hand, should the Aalas come
off victorious, they will become the
undisputed champions. Manager Hoo
phi, of the Aalas, is confident Of a
complete walkover with the Palamas.
The batteries for this contest will
be Hardee and Moses, for the Aalas;
and Paaluhi, with Hoopii behind the
bat, for the Palamas Hardee is I'M
doubtly the champion slab artist of
the junior leagues. His working in

John O'Rourke intends to stay with,
the racing game. He has reconsidered
his decision to retire from the local
turf and his colors will be seen wher-
eever the next race meeting is held.
This is important news for local turf
men, for whatever John O'Rourke may
or may not have done, the fact re-
mains that he knows more about train
ing and racing the thoroughbred than
any other man in the Islands today
and whenever he starts a horse that
animal will surely have to be reckon
ed with.

Johnny Frayne received the decision
over Dick Hyland.

The men fought at the Mission Club.
They weighed in at 1873 pounds at 3
o'clock. Both men are natural light
weights and each has long been clam
oring for a whir at the other. Bat
Ting Nelson is the only man in the
business who has knocked Hyland out
once he got into his stride. Since he
cleaned up Leach Cross after Al rounds
of scrapping, Hyland has been rated
as quite a man in the pugilistic reg
lister. Frayne recently knocked out
Young Corbett the latter being well
fancied to win. The men stand right
next to Battling Nelson in the light
weight division. Both men are young
and ambitious and Frayne by defeat
ing Hyland places himself right in
line for a match with the champion

Tom Patterson Talks
Of Polo And Racing

Tommy Patterson, the well known
horseman and trainer of polo pennies
is in town having arrived by the
steamer Claudine from Maui yester-
day. Patterson has been laid up in
the hospital for the past four months
with a severe attack of indammatory
rheumatism.
Patterson says that the Maui polo
team which will oppose Oahu in the
coming inter-island tournament will
probably be as follows:
No l, Harold Rice; No 2, Harry
Baldwin; No. 3, Frank Baldwin, No.
4, David Fleming
He is of the opinion that the Maui
bunch will have their work cut out
to retain the championship this year.
Mr.. Patterson brought the news that
Tom Thumb, Harry Baldwin's crack
polo pony, well known here, broke a
hind leg in a game two weeks ago
and had to be destroyed. The pony
was the fastest and best polo pony
that has even been brought to these
islands and at the Coast once ran
quarter in % seconds. He was a
bright sorrel and as pretty as a pic
ture He stood 14:11a and was four
years old.

Hawaii as a jockey though he has not
ridden much of recent years. He
rode Mark Twain at Kapiolani Park
