Thousands of persons yesterday
afternoon saw Bud Mars make three
sensational flights at Moanalua, on
the second OF which he nearly smash
ed his machine, being unable to stop
after striking the ground and only
being saved from disaster by some
marines catching hold and holding II
back before striking the fence at the
makai end of the grounds.
There was a larger crowd present
at Yesterdays flights than on any pre-
vious day. and loud cheering and
handclapping greeted the daring avn
ator as he reached the ground safely
at the end of his second flight, when
it had seemed that he was going
to break up everything in running
into the. fence.
Although the steering post was
broken in the second flight, Mars
decided to go up again for a third
flight, which he did safely enough,
making a good landing.
There were eight flights scheduled
on the afternoon program yesterday,
but the crowd seemed well satisfied
with three that were put on, even
| if the aviator did none of his stunts
that have won for him immense ap-
| plause wherever he has ventured into
| the air.
In spite of the fact that there were
many more present on the ground!
yesterday than at any of the pre-
| vious days, there were probably more
dead heads who saw the flights thar
on any other day.
Those who took in the sights were
not all of the lower-ten, for alonE
the roadway on the hill outside the
grounds. there were grouped a mum
Der of automobiles and carriages, be
sides a large number of persons Wht
came up to that point on foot ant
had a fine view down on the poll
grounds where the flights started.
Many took a close look at the biz
bird before it was taken from tn
tent, and then at 2:30 it was role,
onto the field and Mars started Of
his trial flight.
Off across the field he went fror
the makai end, just grazing tn
ground, turning at the farther en-
by stopping the machine and liftin
it around and then driving sloWl
back to his startig point.
In few moments he started o

LARGE CROWD
saw SOCCER
High School Defeats Puns-
Iron Works and Males
Draw Game.

Before the largest crowd of root
ers of the season, the third games in
the soccer series of the Hawaiian
Association Football League were
played yesterday afternoon at the
league grounds, the Puns losing to
the High School and the Iron Works
and Males playing a draw.
The games played yesterday mark
the end of the first half of the series,
and it is still any team for the WIN
ner, a condition which has never re-
suited before when the series was
half over. Always in the past one
team has been far in the lead by the
time half the games were played ano
the others were trailing in the rear
Both games yesterday were hotlJ
contested, and there was good play
ing done by nearly every man on the
opposing aggregations.
The first game of the Afternoon
was between the Puns and the H1gl
School team, and the latter won, tn
score being one to nothing at the enc
of the game.
For the second event of the after
noon, the Iron Works and Male
lined up, and after hotly-contestet
game the finish showed a tied scor'
-2-2.
At the present time the Iron Work
lead the bunch, with four points t
their credit, two being counted TO
a win and one for a drawn game
The Males and Puns each have thre
to their credit, and so being tied TO
second place. High School is at tn
bottom of the list at present, wit
two points.
The series still belongs to anyone
and the way the High School tear
has been playing recently will pu
that outfit in something beside
fourth place in the league befor
many more games are played.
The next of the series will b
played on Saturday next, the lro
Works lining up against Punaho
arr the High School against tn
Males.

MARS Makes BUT THREEF FLIGHTS
At MOANALUA ON LAST DAY
ACCIDENT IN SECOND FLIGHT MADE 1T IMPOSSIBLE TO
DO ADVERTISED STUNTS-LARGE CROWD PRESENT.

the first fight, and rose from the
middle of the field, sailing away up
the gulch, turning in a graceful
sweep and travelling rapidly back to-
ward the sea. After going almost
out of sight he turned again, came
back over the field and circled from
the gulch to the makai end of the
field and made a safe landing.
At times during the flight he was
,, buffeted about by adverse air cur
rents. and when he reached the
ground he was not particularly pleas
ed with the reception he had received
while up in the air.
On the second flight Mars was in
the air but a short time, and while
coming from the gulch he was borne
down by the wind and had to make
landing while the breeze was at his
| back.
AS the machine struck the ground
the speed was not diminished in the
least. and Mars was seen to be lean
ing forward and trying his best tc
stop with the brakes, but to nc
avail.
Almost as soon as the big bird hit
the earth, Captain Baldwin shouted
to the marines, who were assisting
the mechanicians in handling the bl.
plane, to grab it, and half dozel
raced out, intercepting it's course anC
bringing it to a standstill just be
fore reaching the rising ground ant
the fence at the end of the field.
After an examination of the ma
chine had been made, Mechanical

and with much gusto Informed th'
waiting public that although it Woult
be extremely hazardous for the avia
tor, vet he would make one more
} flight, thus cutting the program from
the original eight numbers scheduled
} When this announcement was mad

era James b. Aleshire of the army
and officials of the Agricultural De
partment before the House Commit
tee on Agriculture. 1t is proposed to
establish a system whereby the Gov

On the return trip it was almost
impossible to get to Fort Shafter IN
any way but by walking. The driv-
ers were slow, allowing their mules
and horses to walk in those vehicles,
and the motor buses merely crawled
along.
This was necessary when the crowd
was thickest and various halts had
to be made, but the driver Of one
machine took his crowd only to the
bridge on the Damon place and then
informed it that he could go no fur
Their. 1t was a case of walk half a
mile to the car, that was all.
One accident occurred on the
crowded roadway after the flights,
M. P. Jacob, on horse, collidin2
with an automobile driven by Ed
Wood and being taken to the Queens
Hospital with a broken leg, and al
the field H. Baker, who was taking
| tickets, fell from bus and broke
his leg.
| Wood took the first man TO tnt
hospital in his machine, and the pc
/ lice auto took Baker to the same
! institution.
All in all, it was an orderly crowd
! and the close of the first aviation
meet in Hawaii marked a distinc
success, in a financial way as well
as the promoters say they have come
out on the right side Of the ledger

the Asia for Japan, where they Wer'
preceded by Advance Agent Brlce tw'

HORSES AND RECIPROCITY.

The FREE PRESS has frequently
urged the farmers Of Vermont TO de-
vote Increased attention TO horse
breeding on the ground that in spite
of the increased use of the automo-
bile the demand for good horses is
sure to increase. That this is true
and that this situation will not be
changed in the event OF the adoption
dentally brought out by recent
statement by John r. Ryan OF Mon
treal, general manager of the Can
adam national bureau of breeding.
In speaking Of the scarcity of horses
in Canada in connection with mill
tary matters, Mr., Ryan said Can
ada Is $4,000 remounts short of mob
ilizstion and England Is 29s,ooo
short" Not long since I visited the
nearly all of the mounted regiments
I saw came to camp very weak and
IN no case approaching their estab
lishment. This is due to the scarcity
Of horses and while heavy farm
horses and draft horses are bred in
abundance. the cavalry horse Is get
dng very scarce.
Now the farmers Of Vermont as n
rule don't breed the kind Of horse
Mat Canada produces. namely, che
Heavy draft horse, and we are unable
to supply the demand for both the
Noavy farm horse as we'll as the hand
)on ) driver which has been the fav-
)rite with our breeders. AS a matter
" fact. we are constantly bringing
Ieavy horses here from the West,
Hhereas we ought to produce our
own draft horses and help supply the
demand for nne drivers as well.

THE REAL NEED.

In negro households, especially in com.
munitie. where negroes form lars,
portion OF the population, It frequently
happens that the woman is the head u
the family. being not only the bread
winner. but also the discipinarian, and
in that capacity on occasions she re-
CARDS her putative lord and master rs
subject TO her will. This, at least was
the assumption OF the Colored woman
who was a party TO little scene enact
ed in the ONCE of a justice of the peace.
A man had been arrested on the charge
Of beating and cruelty misusng his wife.
After hearing the charge against tho
prisoner, the justice turned TO the first
witness
Madam" he said If this man were
your husband and had given YOU q
beating, would you call in the police"
The woman addressed, veritable Am
axon in size and agressiveness, turned d
smiling countenance toward the justics
