HORSE RACE
ONSATURDAY
THREE MARES TO MEET
OVER SIX FURL0N
Copit Lizzie Moore and Mary
WinkeIfieId 10 Race for
$3.50 PurSe-CloSe Finish
Anticipated.

Next Saturday at Kapiolani Park,
tween Lizzie Moore, Mary Winkel-
field and Copit will take place. A
purse Of $3.50 has been put up and a
great race is assured. The distance
is to be three-quarters of mile, and
all three owners are confident that
their nags can pull OFF the prize.
Copit is looking well Just now, and
the fine little mare will run n great
race. Lizzie Moore and Mary Win
kleheld put up a close finish over
half mile few weeks ago, and as
better jockey has been engaged to
ride Mary Winkelfield next Saturday,
she may turn the tables on Lizzie
Moore. Whether either of the mares
can beat Copit or not Is another
proposition. and II remains to be
seen how the six furlongs will suit
the trio.
There was a race for a small stake
last Saturday at the park. but 1t was
runaway affair In which Clara c.
simply won as she liked from Hawaii
Wonder. The event caused no ex-
citement to speak of, and many peo-
pie wondered how the wonder" CD
ever came to be sent up against
Clara c.
The race on Saturday next will be
different affair, and II would sur
prise nobody II all three mares fin
ished so close together that the pro
verbal blanket could cover the
| bunch.
That horse racing has great hold
on the public is an assured fact, and
the time is ripe for some enterprisine
body of men to get together and form
n Honolulu Jockey Club. A track
can easily be secured. and then the
sporting people of Oahu will not have
to depend on the other Islands fol
their horse races.

Young Eklund of EVA won out in
the final of the Hall Cup yesterday,
and he defeated the runner-up. Col
lins. three sets straight, rs. G.1, 6-3.
The first set was the best of the
lot. and after that Collins did not
show so good form as he did against
Captain Low on the previous day.
The kid" played In his usual lazy
fashion and did not turn a hair dur
ing the three sets. lie slammed
them back at Collins from any old
angle, and he brought on some pretty
half-volley backhanders. There Is
no doubt about the youngster hav-
ing been well grounded in the first
principles OF tennis, and If he is able
to mix up more with better players
than himself, there is little doubt
that he will in time develop into n
first class man.
On one or two occasions yesterday
Eklund tried sort of Mclaughlin
stroke, and he put n lot of spin on
the ball He also used chop stroke
that kept very low and generally beat
| Collins
\ The most noticeable thing yester.
| day was the way both men made
| double faults. and in several in
stances the game was lost through
the almost objectionable mistake.
Both players made doubles. and the
sooner they get onto the fact that
double faults should be the rarest OF
things, the better II will be for both
on the tennis courts. Collins also
stands from four to six feet behind
the back line when serving, and con-
sequently is never in a position to
get to the net quickly. He, however,
plays well. considering the short time
he has been at the game.
The Play.
In the first set yesterday Collins
started of strongly, and after losing
the first game on his serve, took the
two next. Eklund cvened things up
in the fourth, and then Collins won
the nth and led 3.2. Three-all was
called at the end Of the sixth game,
and then Collins took the two next
and the score was 5.3 In his favor.
The set looked as II II were going
to the man who beat Captain Low,
but Eklund up and, taking two
games, made II flve-all. The next
two games were captured by the
youngster. and the set went to him,
i7-5.
The second set was uninteresting,
as Collins did not seem able to get
up polnt-getting streak and lost
the first four games right OFF the
reel. lie woke up little In the
fifth game, and after 1t had gone to
deuce he took II. The sixth and
seventh games, however, were taken
by Eklund, and the set ended 6-l.
with two sets in his favor, Eklund
looked all over winner, and the
spectators got ready to hail the
youngster as the first holder of the
Hall Cup. lie started out In the
third set as If determined to wipe
Collins out six-loye. but after taking
fohr games straight, Collins got one
and stopped the runaway. Eklund

FIGHT OVER REFERENCE
OF PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
PAYNE Seeks to Have It All Sent
to Commerce Committee.
But Fails

Chairman Serene PAYNE of the House
ways and means committee met a tenn
porary reverse in that committee today
in his effort to have President Taet's
railroad and antitrust message refer
red in is entirety to the committee or
interstate and foreign commerce.
Representative Gaines offered mo-
tion that the usual form of referring
the resolution he adopted. which meant
that the message would go to the
interstate and foreign commerce ana
judiciary committees. and Mr.. Payne
finally accepted the amendment. y
democratic motion referring the mes
sage specifically to various committees
according to the subjects treated in the
message was lost.
When the resolution reached the House
today no action was taken OH it and ii
will lie the Speakers table. The
democrats are prepared. if necessary. to
further oppose the entire message going
to the commerce committee. and the sub
ject is likely to cause some disSension
before final disposition is made of it.
Senator Ellins today introduced i'm the
Senate the administration bill for the
amendment of the interstate commerce
law In accordance with the recommended
lions of the President. 1t was the same
