KOLOA WINS
PEARL RACE

There was a great Pearl race in the
harbor yesterday morning. The Koloa,
Pearl and Ivy were out for blood, and
the Koloa won. The course was the
same as usual, and there was a good
breeze all the time
Crozier sailed c. Hebeler s Koloa to
victory, Luther Hough sailed the Pearl,
and Max Bolte the Ivy. 1t was keen
race all the way, and the Koloa won as
much by clever sailing as by superiority
of sail-set and lines.

ing her centerboard weighted, but will

WANTS
ANOTHER TRY
Heavy Gloves Used Last Time
Made 1t Impossible to
Do Damage.

Dick Cullen wants another chance at
Reilly. He came up TO this office ana
had something to say last night. THIS
is what he said:
F'I want to get away from here on
December 10. In fact, | am going
away. We are both in condition, and
I am quite willing to meet Reilly again
a week from Saturday, December 4. ]
am willing to make a side wager of
800 and box him straight rules for
twenty rounds. The reason that I want
the longer distance is that l always
do my best work after the fifteenth
round.
"In the fight on Wednesday night
I got mixed up as to the rounds.
turned round and asked my seconds
what round it was, and when they told
me the eleventh, | was the most sur
prised man that ever happened. ]
started out to dc my best, but it was
too late.
"Twenty rounds is my distance; and
I should like to meet Reilly under those
conditions. / am not begging for any
thing. but [ feel sure that l can slip
it to this man. To tell you the honest
truth, l was almost staggered when ]
found how fast Reilly was. He was a
| full hundred per cent. faster than when
/ met him the first time
Cullen also cOrroborated the state
ment in The Advertiser that the gloves
were heavy. He states that they were
| marked "Spalding.' Now, everybody
knows that both Spalding and Reach
| make gloves for gymnasium use only
Sol. Levinson is the man who makes
| fighting gloves. The gloves used Oh
| Wednesday night were of the usua
| gymnasium pillow-cushion variety.
| There is nothing against the using
of heavy gloves, only when the matter
is kept secret. The use of heavy glove:
| naturally was in Reilly's favor under
clean break rules and the matter SHOULD
most certainly have been announced
from the ring. When two men, one
acknowledged as fast and clever an(
| the other as sturdy and a hard hitter
| get in the squared circle, when it il
presumed by everybody that they vii
box with five ounce gloves, then, if nj
gloves of the latter size are obtainable
it most certainly should be given GU
to the public.
| With the gloves that were used i
was almost impossible for either maj
to hurt the other. That is good. I
makes a real scientific exhibition gu
of what might otherwise be slugfes
and scientific exhibitions are what ar
needed here and what the sports ik'
to watch. But it would have beer
much better if the weight of the glove
had been announced.
There is not the least suspicion tina
the glove business was prearranged. |
was merely an oversight, yet it cam
at bad time when half the people
in town were claiming that the bou
would be draw for another event.
The Cullen challenge is a good on
and if the bout is arranged the result
ant scrap should be a good one. Some
thing will doubtless be done about i
in the near future.

From then on there was q series OF

Major Holds Laws Effective Aug. 10.
Jefferson City.-Despite the fact
that one of the bills passed at the re-
cent session Of the general assembly
and which has been approved by the
governor fixes November l as the date
when the laws enacted by the as
sembly shall become operative, Attor-
ney General Major, in a written opin-
ion holds that they go into effect
ninety days after sine die adjourn
ment, or August 10, unless through an
emergency clause, they become opera
tive earlier. The legislature adjourn
ed May IL. This is a matter which
has aroused deep interest over the en-
tire state, the popular impression be-
ing that all approved bills become
laws in ninety days after adjournment
until it was discovered that there was
a bill postponing the date until Nov
ember 1. While David H. Harris. a
member of the revision committee,
contends that this bill is in nowise in
conflict with the constitution, the at
torney general in his opinion, sustains

Military Schools Affected.

Jefferson City.-Governor Hadley
has issued an order to Adjutant Cen
eral Rumbold notifying him he must
NO longer consider any military school
in the state either as a post or a part
of the national guard of Missouri IN
less 1t conforms to the requirements
of an act of the last legislature, which
repealed all laws making them such
posts. The only school of this kind in
the state which meets all these exac-
lions is the Kemper Military Academy
Of Boonville. Adjutant Rumbold
states that the Wentworth Military
Academy, at Lexington, also is to
come up to the standard. The military
department of the State university Is
a national guard post, deriving much
of it's support from the federal gov
eminent. It's graduates are given bre-
vet school lieutenant comissions in
the National Guard Of Missouri.

MATSON Wins AUTO RACE
DEFEATS SIXTEEN RIVALS IN
LIGHT CAR EVENT.
Boston Driver Maintains Average
Speed Of So Miles an Hour Over
1924 Mile Course.

Crown Point, Ind.-The First honors
in the opening Western Wander
bilt" automobile ace went to
Joseph Matson, who piloted a
Chalmers Detroit BLUE Bird" to a
brilliant victory over fifteen rivals.
The ace was for light cars only for
232.47 miles and while Of great i'm
portance in itself, was generally con-
sidered as preliminary to the race of
the big ears for the Cobe cup over the
same course. Perfect weather and the
absence of any save the most trivial
injuries todrivers were fortunate cir
cumstances of the winning of the In
riana trophy by Matson.
The field numbered sixteen cars at
the start, the Ford and Reneault hav-
ing withdrawn. The leading trio fin
ished as follows:
Chalmers-D Detroit (Matson) 4:S1:2l-
Locomobile (Robertson) 4:S9:03.
Marion (Monsen) 4:42:0S.
The time of the other cars was not
taken as they were tagged off the
course after the first three had finish

OFFICERS BLOW A SAFE
High Sheriff to Face Burglary Charge
for Forcing Strong Box to
Secure Documents.

Honolulu, H. 1.-The latest devel.
opment of the complicated situation
which has grown out of the strike of
Japanese plantation laborers and the
subsequent arrest of their leaders, is
a charge of burglary preferred by At
torney Joseph Lightfoot, who repre-.
sents the accused men, against High
Sheriff William Henry and Attorneys
William A. Kinney and Mason Prosser,
counsel for the planters association.
The accusation grows out of the blow
ing of the safe in the office of the Jill,
the radical Japanese newspaper, and
the seizure of books and papers belong
ing to Editor Sega and others, which
are alleged to have revealed a conspir-
acy among the leaders of the strike to
obtain control of the islands. The mat
ter is now being investigated by the
grand jury.
