TRICK ATHLETE
ON THE ASIA
He Won All Prizes in the
Games-NeWs of
Waterfront.

Down on the trim little liner Asia
yeserday afternoon they told good
story on a party of English gentlemen,
very fond Of all sorts of sports, who
came over on the boat. Games Of every
description were planned and played
the first few days out OF port on the
way here, when it was decided TO sys-
tematize the sport and offer prizes to
the winners. And one little trick BIZ
eyelisf, the Great and Only Eldid, who
did stunts in the Orpheum Theater
some months ago. won all the prizes.
Eldid is somewhat of a Joker in his
own little quiet way, and when he
was asked to join, he pretended that
he was mostly a dub when il came to
participation IN any sort of games. But
fhe passengers, especially the party of
British gentlemen who were keen on
invigorating exercise, insisted that he
enter his name SO that full eompeti-
tion list might be had. And, with APP
parent reluctance, Eldid, the profess
zional athlete. allowed himself to be
drawn into the giddy whirl of amateur
sport
What he did to those chaps when it
came to playing for real prizes is now
a matter Of history on board the Asia.
Out of eight splendid trophies offered,
Eldid carried away six, and he didn t
enter IN the other competitions. The
games were called as follows in the
official list of prize-winners placed on
the bulletin board of the Asia: Cock
fighting, Pillow Fight. Sling the Nom
key, Boot and Shoe Race, Bun eating
Contest and Obstacle Race.
The Asia had fair weather on the
run here from the Orient, meeting some
head seas that delayed her little.
She brought five cabin and eighteen
steerage passengers for Honolulu, be-
sides 95T tons Of general cargo from
the Orient. She carried 1888 tons of
freight for San Francisco, the most
important consignment being that Of
lol1 bales of raw silk. valued at APP
proximately half a million dollars.
Captain Harry Gaukroger. skipper OF
the Asia, got his vessel away for the
Coast few minutes after . o'clock
last night.

j. 8. MARSHAL
Refused to Allow Prisoner to
Be Taken From the
Sheridan.

Captain Babeock of the transport
Sheridan was apparently not SO anx-
ious to get rid of the smugglers on
board his ship as he was the stow
always, for, shortly before he sailed
Tuesday evening for the mainland, he
refused to allow Deputy United States
Marshal Holt to arrest and take from
the vessel man whom the customs of
fieials had pointed ont as smuggler
of cigars.
As result. it is said that United
States District Attorney Breckons will
take up some sort Of a complaint
against the skipper of the Sheridan.
Captain Babeock, however, must have
cooled down after he got out at sea
for he wirelessed to Marshal Hendry
yesterday morning that he had the
alleged smuggler in the brig and would
hold him until word was received from
Hendry.
Two men were caught with the goods
on the wharf, and were Immediately
placed under arrest by the customs of
fcials. One of them, Greek, literally
blossomed in choice smokes, he having
cigars packed in every conceivable part
of his clothing. He had them stuffed
inside his trouser legs, inside his shoes,
under his hat, IN all his coat pockets,
and, in fact, everywhere that cigar
would fit in. In the future the customs
officials will hold every one coming off
Of boats from the Orient down to a
pretty close inspection, much more rigid
than has been customary in the past.
This was stated officially from the Gus
toms office yesterday.
In the past, it has been the general
rule to eonfseate cigars and let the
would-be smuggler go when caught
here. There was hardly transport
passed through this port but that the
attempting to run the gauntlet. The
Greek who was caught Tuesday was
let out on bail yesterday, but he will
be prosecuted strenuously.
As an evidence of the close watch
WHICH Will BH htpb on tue oIle1ldi
boats in the future, it is a signife ant
fact that there were no less than six
customs inspectors stationed at the
Haekfeld wharf, where the Asia was
locked yesterday. These men kept a
close watch on everyone leaving the
boat, and also had their weather eye
open so that nothing could be dropped
from the water side Of the vessel into
a small boat.
The fact that the recent ban on
opium has put the customs inspectors
on their mettle has also brought out the
fact that it would be a very easy mat
ter for smuggling operations on large
scale to be conducted through this port.
A man, working with confederate at
this port, could bring in pocketful
of diamonds or other precious stones,
these to be taken on to the Coast on
another vessel. It is known for fact
that precious stones have been Snug
gled here in the past, and disposed OF
at this port.
What preparations are being made TO
barricade Hawaii against the undouht-
ed attempt to flood her with opium
which viii be made soon the officials
in the customs office do not care to
discuss They are, however, leaving
no opportunities open to smuggle the
drug from the big vessels that come

ana is the same man who formerly ran
through this port on the old Peru.
Captain Trip and Harbormaster Clark
told yesterday about the time the
Peru ssran away" in this harbor. It
was when the Bishop slip was still in
course of construction. The Peru was
switching around in the harbor, near
the Bishop slip, and, wishing to make
"a turn, the captain signaled the en-
gine-room for full speed astern. The
chief engineer interpreted the order
exactly opposite, sending the ship full
speed ahead. Before anything could
be done to stop her, the Peru had
smashed through the half-driven piling
for the Bishop slip and buried her nose
in the coral. In the meantime the
captain was signaling wildly from the
bridge for a reversal of the engines,
the tug Fearless was straining every
ounce of her power to hold the run
away ship back, and the chief engineer
was putting forth all the more power
into Full speed ahead. = Shortly
afterward the captain dashed fran
