The Kauai polo team yesterday won
its second game in the interisland
series, beating the Oahu four at Moa-
nalua field, in one of the most exciting
games ever played here, the score being
six and three quarters to five and a
half. The game was full of ginger and
dash from beginning to end, and had
the local team been longer-winded and
equipped with better ponies than they
had. they doubtless would have come
back to town with a victory to their
credit 1t was big sporting event,
but the social feature also was notable.
At the end of the fourth period the
local players-Dr. w. D. Baldwin, Sam
uel Baldwin, Walter f. Dillingham; and
Harold Dillingham-showed strong evil
dences of fatigue. and their ponies
were painting like lizards. The Kauai
ntingent-Charles, Philip and Arthur
Rice and Malina, a Hawaiian boy en-
ployed on the Rice ranch-were as
fresh and lively physically as if they
had only taken a three,mile horseback
in a country lane.
While the Oahu players were being
towels the gentlemen from the other
island were chatting with their friends
or looking over their stock of ponies.
The Oahu four played as sllilfully
and determinedly as their antagonists,
but they only learned that the seden-
tary life is not compatible with polo
playing The local four made an ad-
mirable effort in the last two periods,
only to find themselves outwinded and
unable to get ahead of the Brothers
Rice and their fourth man.
Both teams were confident of victory
when Captain Forsyth, the umpire
sounded the whistle for the game to
begin.
1t started off with a rush and a series
of long drives back and forth, with
scurrying ponies twisting ana turn
ing to keep track. Doctor Baldwin
finally followed through a quick series
aud slammed in the first score for Oahu.
The players were all over the field and
it was more matter of Out-running

test was resumed Immediately with a
good deal of ginger on both sides. GA
hu had to even up and did so, Samuel
Baldwin making clean drive between
the posts just as the timekeeper was
raising his arm to strike the bell.
At the beginning of the third period
Doctor Baldwin was thrown from his
pony at the upper end of the grounds,
but scratched elbow was not serious
enough to affect his playing afterwards.
Philip Rice did the trick in this
period, the third, but the cheers went
to Maina for his clever driving. He
swatted the wood through the scrim
images and did some hard riding and
mallet.work. That he did not do some
scoring was due to the brilliant goal

In the fourth the players were all
over the field, and their little ponies
did some hard-aud sometimes fast
running. Philip Rice did some clever
work, but could not score. Doctor Bald.
win made a 200-foot drive and scored
after four minutes of play. His good
luck was followed by Charles Rice two
minutes later, and Walter Dillingham;
made the third successful drive for the
period one minute after that.
Before the first half-minute of the
fifth period was ended Oahu had an.
other score, and after five minutes more
of hard playing on both sides Sam
Baldwin put another one past goal. In
the sixth Harold Dillingham; was all
over the field, winning applause from
all quarters. He worked like Trojan
all the time and made many long drives
and clever rideoffs. Malina made n
long drive and threatened the Oahu
goal. His stroke would have scored if
Doctor Baldwin had not stopped the
ball with a clever back-stroke, one that
is not seen in every game. Malina
made another long drive, but missed,

At the beginning of the seventh
Malina missed fine chance. The ball
was running slowly and he had clear
field He did not make it, however,
and a sigh of relief went up. Charles
Rice stopped the rejoicing, however, by
Shaping in a good one. Doctor Bald

Kauai side by a series of good rideoffs.
Arthur Rice scored the last two goals,
one in the seventh and another in the
eighth. winning the contest with seven

Polo fans present were most enthusi-
astic during the last two periods, when
both teams played beautifully in spite
of the fact that the home four were
handicapped as already stated.

DEMOCRATS HAVE
FULL TICKET OUT
Big Island Braves Claim to Have
Chance Through Fusion to
Sweep the Boards.

HILO, August 12.-Democrats on the
Island of Hawaii express themselves
rs confident of victory next November,
and point to the increase in the en-
rolment of their clubs all over the is
land as qualification for their conf
dence. Besides this, the talk of fusion
with the Home Rulers is strongly and
openly advocated by both parties. Rep!
rcsentative Kaniho is also advising the
Hawaiians to support white man for
delegate (McCandless) against Kuhio.
Democratic candidates, whose names
will be presented in convention, are
given on authoritative information as
follows:
Supervisors: o. Shipman for Kau,
the district he now represents; d. +.
Metzger for South Hilo; b. X. Sim
mons for North Hilo; viii Richard or
Furtado for Hamakua; Henry BeclSley
for Kohala; for Kona there will be no
Democratic candidate in opposition to
Kalaiwaa, who is sure of reflections; for
Puma district there will be no opposi-
ton to Norman X. Lyman, who has
made reputation for himself as a good
road builder during his present term of
office.
For county attorney, the present dep.
uty, Heen, will oppose Beers, his pres.
ent chief.
For treasurer, young George Richard.
son will be selected to try and defeat
Lalakea, who has held office for three
terms. Richardson is a young man,
well-known throughout the island, who
has never yet taken any part in poll
tics.
For clerk there will be David Ewali.

The city democratic executive commit

people of Birmingham at city primary

In this democratic primary the people
shall vote upon the selection of mayor,

The people are also called upon to ex-
press their choice as to whether or not
they shall have a commission form of
government or the existing form of legis-

The city democratic executive commit

matters of how the city of Birmingham
shall be governed to popular vote of
the people. ef.
We have had lots of politics in Birming-
ham and in the state of Alabama. 1t is
well to continue these political campaigns
until all matters pertaining to the gov
eminent of the state or any part there
of shall have been threshed out by the
people.
The American government is founded
upon the basis of the rule of the people,
1t has been a successful government.
Now, let the people vote upon the gov
eminent of Greater Birmingham, and
let them decide as to how this great city
shall be governed.
The Age-Herald believes it well to refer
all matters TO the people. Let us make
this Greater Birmingham the greatest and

Only the people themselves by thorough

Better Farming and More Of II Needed

Secretary Wilson, who was once q
farmer himself, rises to remark that
unless more farms and better farmers
are forthcoming in this country the
population will soon outgrow food pro-
duction, and we will be compelled to
import food products instead of ex-
porting them as we have been do
ing down to the present day.
We have an abundance of untitled
land. Only one-third of Alabama, for
example, is cultivated. The untitled
land should be brought into cultiva-
ton and all cultivation should be
brought up to modern standards. We
need scientific and intensive farming
as we'll as more farming.

From the Washington Herald
When the Pied Piper led the rats down
TO the river and let them all jump in,
leading to self-destruction, it was music
that produced the charm: but when
Frank Madonas of Pottsville, Pa, was
ms pired by love frenzy to do something
tragic he jumped on a bicycle and rode
headlong into the raging waters of the
Sci uylkill river. Sef-destruction did not
follow. for Alexander Morris jumped into
the flood and, at the risk of his own
life, pulled back the love-sick swain.
Not to be baked in his effort to show
that love had carried away his reason,
Madonas, his clothes still dripping. rushed
of into the mountains, vowing he would
end his life. and to date searchers for
the unfortunate man have not succeeded
in locating him. Tennyson's fairy tale
about ''in the spring the young mans
fancy applies to Madonas In double
measure. Unrequited love is a malady,
and a surgeon would be the proper re-
course. Instead of this, Madonas sought
to end it all and made a sad mess of
1t. When he returns from the noun
tains, with his wanderust satiated and
his heart palpitations somewhat lessened,
the young lady may show a more gen.
erous spirit, and he may yet live to be
hailed into the divorce court. Madonas
should not take life so seriously, even
though it is spring and the love germs
find it most favorable season of the
year for their activity

The PaloS Mine Disaster

Unfortunately another mine disaster in
volving the lives of more than an hun
bred people occurred in the Birmingham
district yesterday.
These disasters are of too frequent &C.
currence-possibly due to the carelessness
of the working miners themselves.
It is unfortunate. indeed. and the whole
district is grieving over the loss of human
life.
Some laws, like those existing in Eng
land, should be adopted to protect the
lives of those who work in the mines
from the carelessness of their fellow
workers.
The miner as we'll as the mine owner
should be required to know his business.
1t is gratifying to know that the relief
work for the Palos disaster will be well
organized. The Red Cross society be-
came active Immediately upon hearing of
the explosion and Birmingham will no
doubt do its part in making less poignant
the distress that is sure to follow the
sudden death of the bread winners of so
many families.

RABELAIs THE PHYSICIAN

From the New York World.
Under the above headline the London
Lancet prints an article commenting upon
the appointment of a committee at Mont
pellier to erect monument commemorate
ing Rabelais' professorship in the ancient
university of that city. The world at
large knows Rabelais merely as the phi
iosopher and funmaker; the English
speaking world knows him only as the
author of tremendous satire upon all
things, a satire that is often so brutally
coarse that 1t must be kept out of the
reach of young persons 1t forgets entire
y that Rabelais was great physician
and lecturer upon medicine. In 1881 he de-
liyered a course of lectures at Montpelier
on Galen and Hippocrates. The following
year he was on the staff of the Hotel D!eu
at Lyons He Travelled as private physi-
clan to Cardinal du Bellay, and in 1887
gave at least one public anatomical DEM
onstration at Montpelier.
1t was in his later years that he took to
writing the brilliant satires that have
made his name immortal in literature. In
these years he was a poor country priest,
but his vast learning, his wide travels
and his intimate association with the
greatest men of his day had endowed him
with knowledge that enabled him to
diagnose the diseases of every grade of
society, to dissect with his scalpel the
very hearts of men and to prescribe for
the human race In a way that no one be-
fore or since has been able to do more
brilliantly. His description of the edu-
cation of Gargantua, for instance. is a

IN HOTEL LOBBIES.


Every man who visited the gas wells
in Fayette county yesterday was deeply
impressed with the magnificent posi-
bilities that are promised for cheap fuel
in the Birmingham district said Frank
Nelson, Jr.
Those who have not visited the field
may be skeptical of the real extent OF
tie gas indications. There Is no mis-
taking the fact that there is plenty of
gas and rich promise of much more.
| am of the opinion that oil Will be
discovered in at least one of the addi-
tional wells that are now being sunk.
1.-The discovery of gas means more to
the Birmingham district than the aver
age man of affairs can realize. Cheap
fuel of the quality supplied by natural
gas is one of the prime ecessities for
large industrial development. Birmng-
ham would have been great and is great
without natural gas, but it will be much
greater-marvelously great, with the
gas.
And there is no reason why Alabama
should not have as rich gas fields as
any state in the union or any country
in the world. We have almost every
thing else to make us industrially great
and prosperous 1t does not seem
strange that we should have this ad1i-
tional advantage"
