SONDERS RACE FOR
TWO CUPS TODAY
Yachts Compete for Taft and
Draper Trophies Off
Marblehead, Mass.

MARBLEHEAD, Mass, Sept q
Sender yachting for the President Taft
and Governor Draper cups was re
sumed today, with the Americans con-
fident and the Germans hopeful.
The days rest had taken away some
of the bitterness of the two straight
German defeats and had subdued the
exhilaration of the decisive American
victories of Monday and Tuesday.
1t is generally admitted that the sue
cess of the American boats over the
Germans in the moderately strong con-
ditions of Monday and Tuesday was
somewhat unexpected, as 1t was
thought that at least one of the Ger
man boats would prove particularly
fast in what was regarded as typical
Kiel weather.
1t was rumored here today that an
effort would be made to have Mr.. Oertz
design a challenger for the Americas s
cup in behalf of one of the royal family
of Germany.

ASBURY PARK, Sept with fans
flying and bands playing, the annual
baby parade, with a record number OF
children in line, started thies afternoon
in blaze of glory
One of the biggest crowds of the
year witnessed the start and every
vantage point along the line of march
was crowded. Newark was well repre-
sented, both in the spectators and in
the parade, and big delegations were on
hand from nearby cities and towns,
The judging of the various classitica-
tions of children was much facilitated
this year by having the judges scatter
among contestants at the Arcade prevl-

out again to Ocean avenue. They then
marched down the carpeted boulevard
as far as the Casino. A particularly
good showing was made by the fancy
dress division, in which there were en-
tered more than 200 children.
A day of gorgeous sunshine and
sparkling air that was in itself in
spiration, contributed most materially
to everybody's enjoyment, and was
doubly welcome in face of adverse
weather reports.
The crowd began gathering along the
line of march early in the morning, and

'Either a New Bridge or a New
Street," Is Request of
George F. Reeve.
PROMINENT MEN AT
BOARD OF WORKS MEETING
"Must Act Before Cold Weather
Sets ln," Says President
of Board of Trade.

Give us some relief at the approach
to the Clay street bridge. If we can't
widen Clay street, let us have a new
street." said President George F. Reeve,
of the Board of Trade. at the public
hearing held by the Board of Works
today on the proposition of adding
an entirely new street from Broad
street to the bridge.
continued I'VE must do something, if
we are to get anything done before
cold weather. The Board of Trade has
for many years discussed this matter
and sees the need of relief, but / do
not think that it would approve of the
expense of cutting through a new
street unless nothing else can be done"
Some of the others who appeared
were Assessment Commissioner Will
lam Dimond, Peter Campbell, former
president of the Board of Trade; Beda
Voight, of the Assessment Commission;
Frederick Agens and William L.
Morgan.
In opening the meeting Commissioner
Denman, who presided, stated that all
that was desired was to get the opin-
ions of those interested. so that the
board could act intelligently.
Mr.. Campbell was the first speaker.
He, like Mr.. Reeve. said that the board
strongly favored some immediate
action.
If there is opposition to the widening
essSlay street, as it has been proposed,
4, S>tbat the new street should be
a. eprTsf Agens, who owns a plot OF
Z d,Ss where the street. if it were cut
Trough, would go, was strongly in
favor of the plan for opening.
"It would increase the valuation of
property all through the neighbor-
hood" he said. ''As 1t is now we can
not sell and we dare not improve. In
other cities there is never any ques-
tion of opening parallel streets where
there is a necessity. 1t is done in New
York and abroad and recognized as one
of the means to increase valuations
There need be no fear of the cars leav-
ing Clay street. They will stay right
where they are. If you widen Clay
street you cut a building in half and
leave It an eye-sore If you cut the
new street you give an incentive to
build"
On the motion of Commissioner Budd
the matter was left to the Board OF
Assessment and the Board of Works
for investigation

FISH ARE BEING
FREELY DYNAMITED

Reports have come in lately that
the practice of dynamiting some OF
the channels near Honolulu is being
actively carried on by Hawaiian and
Japanese fishermen
A few months ago the attention of
the police was called to a similar
matter and for time the practice of
killing fish by explosives was check
ed.
1t seems to have been started
again, however, and the localities
mentioned are off the reef at Kalia
near the foot of Sheridan street, and
at Waialae. At the latter place is
a channel where the big ulua come
in at times and this place is said to
have received particular attention
from the law-breakers.
Dynamiting is one of the most
destructive methods of fishing en-
ployed in these waters. Giant pow
der, as the explosive is called here,
was first used for this purpose in
1870, according to information OBJ
tanned from natives.
/ A stick of dynamite weighing a
quarter Of a pound is capped and ar
ranged with a fuse about ten inches
Tong
The fisherman usually selects a
deep hole, and padding to within a
short distance to it, lights the fuse
ana when 1t has burned almost to
the cap, throws it from him into the
hole.
When it explodes every living thing
within a considerable radius of where
it struck is either killed or stunned
by the shock. Many fish rise to the
surface and are picked up by the
, fishermen.
An especially Objectionable feature
of this practice is the number OF
, small fishes killed.
The method is prohibited by law
, but very little attention is paid t.
, this enactment, as no effort is mad
to enforce it.
. A dynamited fish can easily be rec
=, ognized, for, as a rule, its bladde
is broken by the immense pressur
, occasioned by the explosion of tn
giant powder. Fish in this conditio
, are frequently exhibited on the slab
!, of the local fish-market

they are a marked Improvement over

Distance running appears to be en-
toying such a boom in Honolulu at
present that a few hints on training
and the running of long-disance
races may not be out of place.
Several of the local runners who
are ambitious to win Marathon hon.
ors appear to know absolutely moth
ing about the physical requirements
for such contest and others who
train earneatly, train wrongly, and
break down when the strain comes.
In the past in Hawaii long-distance
running has been neglected and
sprinting has been specialized. The
focal runners have done well at the
thew game, however, and there seems
to be no reason why Hawaii should
not in course of time produce as good
distance runners as could be found
anywhere
1t is, of course, the professional
promoter who has worked up tme
present craze for long-distance run
ming, and made II to a certain extent
of Considerable financial value. If
distance running continues to be po-
Ipular here is won't be long before
| there will be a decided increase in
the number of professional runners
in this Territory.
| 1t is safe to say that no one under
the age of nineteen should take paIa
| in a Marathon or even a fifteen
imile run. The system must be able
to stand the necessary strain that
goes with a race of this kind, a strain
that must be undergone if you desire
to be in proper physical condition to
finish the race. The pitiful sights
Witnessed in some of the long dis
lance races held here, where young

we must do if we are to prove the
benefits to be deprived from distance
running There is no place in q
Marathon race for boy who is not
mature.
To obtain the best result in a Ions
distance race one must of necessity
prepare himself thoroughly for the
same Because man can run two
FIVE or ten miles it does not follow
that he can go the Marathon distance
or even fifteen miles, except in ex
CeptiOnal cases.
