Out at Kapiolani Park the presence
of sailors from the two British mem
of-war in port, American soldiers,
japanese and American citizens in
their thousands lent an international
aspect to the celebrations 1t was
indeed treat to see the cooperation
of Britishers with Americans in the
celebration of independence Day, the
cordially which exists between the
citizens of the two Anglo-SaXon races
being emphasized by the participation
of the Britshors in the sports ar
ranged to signalze the day.
Speedy Runner Sweeps Board.
The track events were keenly con-
tested but were all won by Blundell
of the Kent, who was too speedy for
the rest of the runners, but even
Bundell had to strike his colOrs
when it came to racing against the
{ Honolulu cracks in the relay race, for
the local boys landed the pace with
ease Blundell won the eighty-yard
dash in 9 As seconds; the hundred
| in II Is seconds, and the three
legged race, with McKenny as his
I partner, Beadley won the sack race
with Rainer second, and Wood won
the potato race with Campbell Sec
ond.
The tug-of-war was a remarkably
fine event but the sailors from the
Kent won in two straight pulls, pull
ing the Challenger boys over in one
minute and five seconds and in one
minute, eleven seconds respectively.
Horse Races Fast.
The two horse races were good
sporting events, the first being over
! a course of three-eighths of mile
between Hilo Girl and Kalihi Boy, the
latter winning in 43 2-5 seconds. In
the second race, over a quarter of a
mile course, the starters were Red,
Hilo Girl and Kalihi Boy, and once
again Kalihi Boy won, the time being
Twenty-Five seconds.

terday when he recorded his l0Sth hit
of the season. Joe has made seven hits
in his last eleven trips to the pan, be-
sides a couple of passes. Joe has VI
sions of finishing the season at a .260

Spider Racinu.

Lord Devon's property was greatly
impoverished by the twelfth earl, who
squandered nearly all his fortune and
terribly embarrassed the entailed
property. He was addicted to most
peculiar form Of gambling. namely
spider racing, which he played with
the last Marquis of Hastings and the
eighth Duke of Bedford Each player
selected a spider, which was placed on
the table, and then the latter was
gently heated from underneath. The
warmth caused the insects to run, and
the spider which got to the edge first
won. But spiders are curious crea-
lures, and it would frequently happen
that spider which was near the edge
and looked like winning would dou-

ruin Of the two former.-New York

A Strange Colony.

The Colonia Cosme, on the Paraguay
above Asuncion, is one of the most Gu
rious in the world. The members Of
the colony make or grow everything
they want and import nothing The
workmen have seven hours work a
day and earn, not money, but time.
Their wages are hours and half hours.
These they sometimes save up till they
have week in hand and then go off
on an excursion. If a man wants a
chair or table he pays for it in hours
of work, which are deducted from the
balance to his credit. Three men went
off up the river in a canoe for a three
weeks holiday. They sold their canoe
at Asuncion for a pound and came
home overland in ten days, lodged in
the best houses in the villages on the
way and yet had some money in hand
at the end.-London Spectator.

Inn Names In Germany.

Germany probably holds the record
for out of the way signs and fantastic
inn names. The most absurd results
are usually obtained by the name of
some animal with a more or less un-
suitable object. The Comfortable
Chicken and the Cold Frog, both of
them in Berlin, are certainly left in
the shade by the Angry Ant (Ort, in
Westphalia) and the Stiff Dog (Berlin).
The Lame Louise is an inn in n suburb
of Berlin, and not far from it is the
Thirsty Pelican. The Dirty Parlor, the
Bloody Bones, the Musical Cats, the
Fourhundredweight Man, and the
Boxers Den are all in Berlin or the
neighborhood, and the Old Straw Bag
In Leipzig, The Open Banghole is in
Stadtohen, in the Palatinate, and the
Shoulder Blade in Jerichow. The Last
Tear is a landlords notion for the
name of his inn, situated near a grave
yard, visited by returning mourners,
and is of frequent occurrence through
out the fatherland.
