Races At
Kahului
The Fifteen Mile Marathon Proved The
Best Race Of the Day.

"A small crowd was on hand last
Sunday at the Kahului track to see
the first marathon race pulled off on
Maui. OF course the threatening
weather had much to do in keeping
many away, as we feel confident
that there are enough enthusiasts on
Maui to make a better financial
showing than was the case last Sun
day. The promoters faced a big
deficit when they started the races,
but to their credit be it said they
went through with the program,
and paid the runners the prize
money the same as though they had
been big winners themselves.
The first race on the program was
two mile foot race for Maui men
only. There were four entries for
this race, but after the first lap it
became evident that William Max
well would win by as big margin as
he pleased. Young Maxwell did the
two miles in 11:5O, and it hardly
proved a warming up for him as he
had hardly begun to sweat. This
boy has the making of good run
ner, and will be heard from later
on in longer races.
The bicycle race was changed
from two mile race to five mile.
Our prediction last week came true,
and Smith proved altogether too
strong for the Japanese riders. Yo-
shigawa went off in the lead, and
many thought he would run away
from Smith, but the latter vas rid
ing under instructions and he grad
ually overhauled the Honolulu rider,
passing him on the third mile and
winning as he pleased in the fast
time of 1854, considering the heavy
condition of the track. 1t is very
probably Smith can defeat any rider
in the Islands, and it is only his ex-
treme modesty which keeps him
from competing in Honolulu against
the supposed cracks.
the fifteen mile race brought out
Tsukamoto, Scharsch, Jackso. and
Lihilihi. The track was hea9, and
everyone expected a slow race, but
at the word Jackson started sprint
which carried him about hundred
yards in the lead. The other three
kept together for the first mile, when
Tsukamoto went after Jackson. Af-
ter this it was plain that Tsukamoto
would win, though Scharsch was
keeping up steady gait that car
ried him around the track at rapid
pace. Iihilihi could not go so fast,
and there was not a sprint in him,
so he quit after the tenth mile.
Tsukamoto did the fifteen miles
in one hour and thirty min
utes, finishing almost a lap ahead
of Scharsch, with Jackson almost a
mile behind.
Tsukamoto showed by his running
Sunday that he is in better shape
than ever before, and he should give
King and Fitzgerald all they could
do to beat him over the fifteen mile
course or the full marathon.

naught. named after her. Should
such be the case, Commander Hayes
hopes to be placed in command of
her and be the first to guide her
through the canal and bring her to
anchor in the harbor of Honolulu:
which, by that time, should the ex-
pectations Of the Hundred Thousand
Club be realized, will have doubled
her present population and become
a city indeed.

The HarbOr
Commission
Have Succeeded in Stirring Up Trouble
With a Vengence.

If the powers that be thought
there was no limit to the patience
of the people of these islands, they
have received a rude Jolt in this
Honolulu harbor master tangle.
First the business firms revolt in
mild way, but now comes the mas
ters and pilots, who stand up on
their hind legs and roar. We give
below their open letter to the Com
mission:
Honolulu, Sept. %, 1911.
The arbitrary manner in which
the Board of Harbor Commissioners
have confirmed the appointment of
Mr.. w. R Foster, ignoring the pc
tition OF prominent merchants,
ship-owners and business men of
this community, as well as a Com
mittee appointed by this Association
to interview the Board of Harbor
Commissioners on the same subject,
leads us to make a public declara-
ton of our opinion.
Under date Of September 9th,
1911, by authority of Honolulu
Harbor No. "a, communication
was sent to the Board of Harbor
Commissionersstthrough Mr.. Mar
ston Campbell, their Chairman.
In this communication we in
formed them Of the appointment of
ten members to constitute q Com
mittee from our organization, and
requested that they be granted an
interview with the Board of Harbor
Commissioners, to take place prefer
ably on Monday or Tuesday, as
early as possible.
To our surprise, up to the &h
inst, our letter had not been ac.1
knowledged. and to be absolutely
certain that it had been delivered,
we communicated with Mr.. Mar
ston Campbell over the telephone,
and inquired whether he had re-
ceived it.
His reply was that he had received
it and had called meeting of the
Board to take place Monday after
noon, September 25th, at o clock,
meeting to take place in the Senate
Chamber at the Executive Building,
where they would be pleased to
meet our Committee, and that he
was then writing us letter to that
effect.
Promptly at the appointed time
our Committee appeared at the
Senate Chamber, and to their fur
ther surprise, after waiting twenty
minutes past the appointed hour,
not one member of the Board had
put in an appearance. The Chair
man of our Committee finally locat-
ed the Stenographer of the Public
Works Department, and after
great deal of telephoning she located
Mr.. Berndt, then later Mr.. Nc
Carthy, and still later Mr.. Camp
bell, Chairman of the Board, who
stated that he had forgotten about
the meeting.
Mr.. McStocker was not present at
the meeting, but was seen imme-
diately after just outside the Execu-
tive Building grounds, talking to
Mr.. Foster, all of which leads us to
believe that an effort was being
made to side-track us.

What the wrestlers, Boxers and Base
Ball Artists Are Doing.

l
ing good of late, and when Jimmy
Callahan came into Comiskey,s. Of
flee n few days ago the old Roman
asked him what was wrong with the
staff.
Callahan tried to get away with
out expressing his opinion, but
Commy nailed him down. Cal told
him the only thing the matter with
the pitchers was lack of control.
Put home plate or two handy
so the boys can practice shooting
the ball over," Cal advised.
Two days later Cal came into
the Office to get his mail. Say Cal, y
said Comiskey, Il took your advice
and bought s5S worth of home
plates. I've got one in right field,
one in left field, one near third base
and one near first base, and I'm 60
ing to take up. the whole shooting
match.'
"Why2' asked Callahan.
Because if / don't those wild
pitchers will have as an excuse that
they thought they were throwing at
one of the plates they use in prac-
tice.'
Ira, Thomas of the Philadelphia
Athletics thinks Roger Bresnahan is
the greatest catcher in the game,
and many agree with the Macknan.
"Bres for mine as the greatest
catcher" says Ira. Look at him.
He can do everything. He is a fine
catcher, can throw to bases like the
deuce, is fast himself running bases,
a good hitter, and, besides all this,
is showing himself to be a good
manager. That ought to be enough
to show that he is little better
than anybody else. Next to him
comes Charlie Doom, to my mind.
And there isn't much difference be-
tween them, though / lean a little
toward Roger"
You have doubtless heard the
story about Chief Meyers opinion
Of American art, but it is worth re.
peating. One day Meyers visited
the Boston Art gallery. Knowing
the Indian to be lover of pictures,
so the story goes, some one asked
him what he considered the two
greatest examples of American art !.
"Oh, 1 think Edwin A. Abbey's
mural panel, The Holy Grail, and
Clusters Last Stand. +"
Why" said the questioner, Il
can understand your choice in the
former, but why the latter? That's
an old chrome"
Il know" Meyers answered, but
it's the only picture I've ever seen
where the Indian was getting an
even break
Speaking of white Hopes" it
looks to the writer as if "Jac k
Lester who recently beat "Bill
Lang" in Australia, is entitled to
serious consideration; especially in
view OF the fact that up to his
match with Lang, he had never
stacked up against first class man,
and that Lang beat Squires and
Fitzsimmons, gave Burns just about
all the trouble he could handle, and
made things more than interesting
for Mr.. Sam Langford. Should
Lester remain under capable man
agement, he will surely be heard
from again, and that shortly.

West Virginia's
Coke Output

In the quantity of coke pro
duced West Virginia has for
several years held second place
among the States, but is out
ranked by Alabama in the value
of the product. according to
Edward w. Parker, of the
United States Geological Sur.
yey, The reason for this lies in
the fact that the output of Ala.
bama has in the iron manufac
turing center of Birmingham
and vicinity local consump.
tive market, whereas practical
ly all of the West Virginia coke
liz shipped to furnaces out
aide of the State. In reach.
ing for these markets not only
does the coke of West Virginia
have to meet in competition the
product from other States, but
each district in the State be-
comes a rival with the other
West Virginia districts, aud the
result is exhibited in the Stats
tics of production and value.
Alabama ranks third in output
of coke, her production in 1910
being smaller than that of West
Virginia by more than 100000
tons, but the value OF Ala
banna's product exceeded that
of West Virginia by over 81
100000. The quantity of coke
produced in West Virginia in
1910 WIS 3,So3, 1881 short tons,
valued at ~ 1886 1888. Alabama's
production was 3,249, 0a7 short
tons, valued at $9,l55, s2L In
quality the West Virginia coke
is better than that of Alabama,
bus the average price of Ala.
bama coke in 1910 was was
1892 a ton and that of West
Virginia coke wac $l.93.
Next to Pennsylvania, West
Virginia possesses larger sup
plea of coking and other high
