racing line, and all sorts of men are
getting into condition for sprints and
long-distance runs. Sunday, Octo-
Der 16, promises to be a big day for.
the runners and public. Besides the
flfteen-mile race between Nigel Jack
son and Antoine Kaoo, a program of
four or five other events Is being
made up.
At first II was thought that the
fifteen-mile ra.es would be enough,
but as pressure was brought to bear
by other runners, It was decided to
have several sprints added to the
afternoons sport.
Spirits.
II Is the idea OF the promoters to
have hundred-yard sprint, a two
twenty dash, four-forty run and a
half-mile. For these events 1t Is
expected that some, of the best rum
ners In Honolulu will enter. Bill
Rice, the speedy ped, will be APP
preached rs to a match with Pat Nc
Donagh, who iS said to be fairly fast
over one hundred yards. Such a
race would draw~a big crowd, most
81 whom would be ready to wager
their clothes on the local lad.
Rice is a wonderful Splinter, and
II he could get up speed little
earlier in his runs, he would about
touch some of the records. "Bill'
is always in fairly good condition,
and II he makes up his mind to run
McDonagh, there will be treat in
store FOR the spectators. The chanee
or seeing Rice up against some really
good man would be appreciated by
all the fans who might feel some
what chary OF putting in some con-
siderable time watching the long
distance race,
Then 4 two-twenty dash would
also be attractive, and II some OF
the fast men will enter there should
be a great race to the tape. The
quarter mile and $50 yards would
bring out some OF the best men, and
with good program OF that kind a
big crowd would surely roll up, es
pecially us the baseball season IL
practically finished.
HAYES and Jackson.
Yesterday afternoon Connie Hayes
and Jackson did some good long-dis'
lance work. The Marathon Kid was
not able to stay as long on the track
as usual, as he was very busy see.

tie around for business.
Hayes is striding along in great
style these days, and as he is deter
mined to get n mat,h with Soldier
King, he is leaving nothing tc
chance and is training hard every
day. He has quickened up his stride
a little and gets over the ground n
fine form.
The veteran trainer and walker
Paddy Walsh. goes down to the Boys
Field every day and his expert ad
vice is much appreciated by the run
ners. Paddy is wonderful old pee

him. II would be good idea Il
have Walsh. Ayr6s, Sullivan and
some of the other walkers get into
race on October 16. ;
Antoine Kaoo.
Antoine Kaoo is working out over
the full distance every second day
and between times he does Ave and
ten-mile jatnts at pace that woult
make an ordinary man feel inclined
for seat on an .aeroplane, Therolt

thinks that not only does he bolt
Jackson safe. but that he Will also
take the 'scalpIof Soldier King later
on. Aud there are plenty Of people
who think the same way. and tn,
Honolulu crowd will certainly sticl

It is thought that new Island
record will be put up by the winner
of the fifteen-mile race and that Q
correct line on the ability of Jack
son and Kaoo will be obtained
through the contest,
There are other runners who are
also talking of getting into the game
