GERE IS BACK
FROM kALUANU|
Right of Way for New Beach
Road Has Been Ar
ranged for.

County Engineer Gere and Mayor Is
Secretary Rivenburgh returned Satur-
day from trip to Koolau, where they
made satisfactory arrangements for q
public road through some private prop
erty at Kaluanui. The surveyed route
passes through three homes occupied
by Hawaiians.
Chairman Quinn of the road commit
tee states that bids for the construe-
ton of the road, which is something
like mile in length, will be called for
at once. The new road will avoid the
beach at Kaluanui, which is difficult
for autos to negotiate, particularly
when the tide is high.
Last week Tom Quinn, with his fine
big Packard machine, -endeavored to go
along the beach road when the water
was high. He was stalled. The salt
water invaded portions of his machine,
neeessitating extensive repairs. The
new road travels inward and is far
above the water.
Chairman Quinn is energetic in his
efforts to get the Windward Oahu roads
into fine condition, and before the term
of the present Board of Supervisors is
completed he expects to have the "Belt
Road in fine shape.
Honolulu is becoming real automo-
bile town, and machines are being reg
istered rapidly. The round-theisland
trip is one of the most attractive in the
islands. and few States and Territories
have such unique tourist attraction.

Gun PLAY CAUSES
EXCITEMENT ON STREET

A trio of men struggling on King
street near the junction of King and
Beretania avenue on Saturday night
caused crowd to collect just in time
to see one take a revolver from one
of the trio who appeared to be greatly
excited. AS soon as the revolver was
ont of the hands of its owner the trio
broke up.
1t appears that Buchly of Peacock
& Co. and Bartlett of the Honolulu
Brewing Company went to the saloon
of Klemme at the Junction building to
discuss some financial matters. Klemme
got excited and finally when he opened
drawer the visitors saw gun in
sight. They left the place but shortly
afterward Klemme rushed down the
street. The men noticed the revolver
still in his possession, and it was
promptly taken from him.

Record of the Gladys in the race
around Oahu for the Governors cup:
Start, Saturday, July 81, 5:32 p. M;
Barber's Point, 1880 p. M; Waianae,
$3.50 p. M; Kaena Point, midnight;
Waialua, Sunday, August /, 4 a. m;
Kahuku Point, s "a M; Kahana Bay,
noon; Mokapu Point, 2:15 p. M; Rab-
bit Island, 4 p. m.; Diamond Head, 6
p. M; finish at spar buoy, 6:53 P. M.
Elapsed time, % hours y minutes. Cor
rected time, % hours p minutes.
1t was shortly before six clock yes
terday afternoon that Captain Nelson
at the Diamond Head station tele-
phoned in that the Gldays was sighted.
Some fifty minutes later she passed the
spar buoy and the finishing line, thus
putting one leg on the Governor s cup
for yachts of the first class over a
course round the Island of Oahu.
At the time of writing the Charlotte
C. has not been sighted, and it is pre-
sumed that she was left in the doldrums
somewhere on the weather side Of the
island, where the wind has proved
itself very fiukey and unreliable.
All the way round the island the
most surprising weather conditions were
met with. At places where they eX-
pected to get no wind, there was live
ly breeze, and at places where the wind
should have been blowing strong and
free, there was an oily patch on the
water and not a breath to flap the sails.
The promise of the weather at the
start was not fulfilled later on. After
leaving the spar buoy the two yachts
raced neck and neck for Barber s
Point. When they were off the entrance
to Pearl Harbor, the wind shifted suf-
ficiently to permit of spinnakers being
set and, under these conditions, the
Charlotte forged ahead and opened up
quite little space between her and
the Gladys.
But, before they reached Barber IS
Point, the Charlotte was obliged to
douse her spinnaker and then the
Gladys, with more favorable slant,
gained rapidly and reached Barber s
Point in the lead.
First Taste of Doldrums
Off Waianae the yachts had their first
taste of the doldrums. The Gladys ran
out of the wind and lay rolling round
for nearly an hour, while the Char
lotte carried the wind nearly up to her
and both of them wished that they had
Captain Nicely aboard so that there
could be somebody to get out behind
and push.
Finally the Gladys caught slight
puff off the land and slipped away, fol-
lowed later by the Charlotte. But at
Kaena Point there was more piiikia.
The wind dropped entirely and again
the yawl ran down on the sloop.
A Wonderful Sight.
The moon was well up by this time
and sent a wide and brilliant streak
across the water. Aboard the Gladys
thew could see the Charlotte c., directly
in the middle of this silyery streak,
come sliding noiselessly along like
ghost ship. They say it was one of the
most remarkable and memorable sights
that ever comes to the wandering
yachtsman.
But the view, grand as it was. could
not claim their attention long, for,
luckily, a breeze sprang up soon after
midnight. and they sailed on round the
point and by daylight were well be-
yond Waialua.
Long Tacks to Windward.

"Reubens Folly" 1t has been misnamed 1t should have

that Christian relatives and Christian courts ignored the

The fury and fanaticsm of orthodox superstition that
impacable hatred engendered by it, have described
elsewhere, finds illustration of truth in the attitude of
Johnston Myers towards Prof Foster That The latter
by far the mental superior of the former is without ques-
ton. Myers simply hates Foster. The whole lies in
the last sentence. For the Christian religion produce
