gone to India and been retained, or in

Of E10,750,000 per annum. A 50-year
period is now completed and there is
no reason to suppose that the In

REILLY'S STUNTS
IN NEW QUARTERS

Charlie Reilly is finding no end
of sparring material at his new quar-
ters in Alakea street. Among his
callers yesterday afternoon were
Bugler Sarconl and Coyle, the latter
the husky Marine who is to meet Ii
mey Richards again. All of the men
were disposed of by Reilly, although
several of them gave him good
deal of trouble in the tryouts.
Cullen is also all to the strenuous
life in his training quarters. He
had number of callers yesterday
and was given about all the amuse-
ment he cared for. Cullen seems
confident that he will get the better
of the Frisco lad, but intends to take
no chances.
The box plan for the bout was
opened at Fitzpatrick's cigar store
at Hotel and Fort streets yesterday,
and is now in full swing. Calls for
choice seats have already started to
come in.

POSTS PREPARING
FOR NJ. A. A. MEET

Competitions were held yesterday
at both Fort Shafter and Schofield
Barracks for choice of men to be en-
tered in the M. A. A. meeting, which
will take place at the League grounds
on November 81, or two days after
Thanksgiving At both camps all
the athletes were out and made a
great day of it. Several of the well
known baseball men of Leilehua
qualified down there, and at Fort
Shafter nearly all of the old favorite
came through.
At Fort Shafter the tests began at
8 o'clock in the morning and were in
charge of Lieutenant Bowen, Ser
geant Williams and Sergeant Major
Krauss. First there were the run
ming and hurdle events, putting the
shot and other stunts familiar to
such programs after which came
one big tug-of-war between G and F
Companies, the former winning. The
teams were as follows:
b Company-March, Miles, Booth,
Smith, Boloun, Johnson, Lancaster,
Herd, Bowers.
f Ompany-Bowen, Simmons, Pat

SPOR T S
DAY FOOTBALL

The town football team has been
called out for practice this afternoon.
This meet is important, as the new
signals will be gone over. The
townies, be it remembered, are to
go up against the Marines again on
Thanksgiving Day, and this will
doubtless be the leading football
stunt of the year. At this time the
teams are tied, each having won a
game. The Thanksgiving Day game
will be the deciding jolt.
The town team will be changed
very little if at all for the deciding
game; but it is understood that the
Marine bunch will be considerably
altered. At any rate several heavy
weights at Camp Very Are dieting in
the hope of qualifying for the team.

JIM JEFFR|ES IS
"AGIN' FOOTBALL
TELLS EASTERN PEOPLE THAT
IT is MORE CRUEL THAN RING
SLUGGING.

OAKLAND, Nov. 6-Jim Jeffries,
the retired and revived pugiist, has
q few warm words to say about col
lege football. AS usual, it was neces-
sary to corkscrew a few answers
out of him before his tongue began
to work freely. Jeff is not a con-
versationalist, but he thinks his
thoughts and they are usually pretty
sensible one.
Hold on!" he said quickly. I'm
a fighter Maybe l ought not to have
any opinions about football. 1t is
not my game. I'm not supposed to
kno wanything about it, Well, y-e-h,
yes, I've been reading the papers.
Tell me, upon the level, have they
killed seven boys already this year?
That's serious. No joke about that
kind of a game, L guess. Now then:
you can say that L magainst any
game that kills seven boys while it's
only warming up, you might say.
That sort of a game isn't worth
while. Nogame that kills. men as a
regular thing is worth while.
"There have always been a lot of
men in this country who stand upon
their hind legs and roar about the
brutality of the boxing game. Their
women will pull their skirts away
from prize fighter as if he was
some sort of an animal, yet these
same people go out to a football game
and yell themselves black in the face
at an exhibition that's too rough for
men that fight for a living. The
women, too, yes, sir, I've seen 'em
and I know.
Here's another tnlng that strikes
me. Most of the boys who hit any
football are only kids. They haven't
their growth or their full strength
They go in there and get slammed
around and they cannot stand it.
They don't get a thing out of it if
they win. Do you suppose all the
rah rah business in the world could
make up the loss of one boy? They
risk everything for nothing. Let
'em holler about fighting being bru-
tai I'll tell you something: if prize.
fighting should kill fifteen men in
one year every l legislature in the
country would put the game out of
business. And that isn't all they do.
They'd hang a few of the winners.
This talk about boxing being brutal
and football being a fine game makes
me sick If I had a son, I'd send
him into the ring to fight one man
at time before I'd let him get into
one of those harnesses and take his
chances with eleven fellows. Yes,
