WINS IN
THE SECOND
CONTEST

In the election on the Garden Island
last week for Auditor, necessitated by
the vote in the general election in that
county being recounted as tie, G.. E.
II. Baker, the Republican, showed
Charles Blake, the Democrats nominee,
under, beating him out by over two
hundred majority in vote of S74. This
gives a clean Republican sweep on Kau-
al. The full returns, with the excep-
ton of the Niihau poll, which was unan-
imously Republican in November, give
Baker $50 and Blake 3S5.
The vote by polls, and the comparison
with the figures of the November vote,
are:

and take suite of rooms in that part
of the Arlington Hotel which used to
be the residence of Senator Charles
Sumner of Massachusetts. The Pres
ident elect FASTENED TO make a call at
the White House, and the President
fastened to return the call at the
hotel apartments. Thus it was for a
generation. The incoming chief mag.
istrate, incidentally, had to pay a
swinging hotel bill before he got into
Office, and for a while after his ar
rival his quarters were crowded with
divers callers of high station. Much
OF that will now be obyiated by the
arrangement agreed upon between Mr.
Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft. For, as has
already been announced, Mr.. and Mrs

Baseball Cracks.

In baseball the new arrivals will not
have to douse their lids to anybody.
They do not talk much about their
team, but one can gather that they
have pretty fine aggregation of ball
tossers by the fact that Lieutenant
Groninger, who looks after the baseball,
was captain of the West Point team
and is said to be the greatest amateur
third baseman that ever stopped hot
liner.
When the football season comes
round, the boys of the Fifth will also
be there. They have penchant for in
tercollegiate, but have no objections
to other forms of the game. Captain
Scales, by the way, who captains the
intercollegiate team, was center on the
West Point team aud is acknowledged
to be tle greatest middleman the Hud-
considers ever had.

and will be the guests for twenty.four
hours of President and Mrs. Roose-
welt. The impressive exchange of
calls will be supplanted by the hearty
handshakes at the portal OF the White
House when Mr.. Roosevelt comes to
the door to welcome his guest and
successor.
When President Arthur gave way to
President Cleveland, he lived at pri.
vate residence here for few days. He
found them very lonesome days. An
anecdote is told of his relief when,
after two or three days, someone
actually came to see him. Usually an
outgoing President tarries here a bit,
at least until the evening of inaugural
ton day President Roosevelt pro-
poses TO change even that practise by
speeding to the railroad station, the
moment he has ridden to the Capitol
with the President-elect. He wants
no long and dreary hours in Washing
ton, after he quits the seat of power.
While the new President is reading
his inaugural address before the as
sembled hosts. every revolution of the
locomotive drivers will be taking Mr..
Roosevelt nearer to New York and to
his home at Oyster Bay.

Few Ponies Now.

There are few polo ponies at the
camp at present, but the government
allows a certain number for each
squadron and about forty are expected
to arrive shortly. just what they will
be is hard to say. They will doubtless
be ponies, but whether of the polo va
riety or not time and experience will
show.
1t is hard to find more practised or
more careful horseman than United
States cavalry officer, and the daft of
ponies will soon be segregated into
possibles, probables, inclinations and
impossibles. Then practise will begin
and the ponies with heads on them will
soon be trained to the various stunts
that a good one must learn before he is
of real use to player.

! SPORTS
;
GALORE
At LE|LEHUA

1t will not be long before the Leile-
hua camp is heard from in the athletic
line. The Fifth Cavalry is crack
regiment in more than one way, and
they have bunch of athletic possibility
taking the air upon the plateau that
will not only surprise Honolulu but be
grand addition to local sporting
circles.
Up till now, and for several weeks
to come, mounted boys will be kept
busy working round the camp and do
ing various military stunts that a mere
cit. does not comprehend. After that
they will have time to think about ath-
letics and sports generally, and then
they will be heard from.
The first sport that one thinks of in
connection with cavalry regiment is
polo. Above the camp, between the of
ficers' quarters and the mountains,
there is an ideal place for polo practise.
The ground slopes slightly, but may be
called fat, and the turf is old and
solid. With some work in digging out
mounds, filing in holes and grass cut
ting, there will be really excellent
field there.
The officers state, modestly enough,
that there are no crack players in the
regiment, but they all know something
about swinging stick. 1t is true that
they had little chance for much polo
playing in Arizona, but many of them
are very fond of the game and the local
team will have to do some tall practise
to hold the military players down.
