Felix Brughell writes the sporting
editor of The Star that he intends
giving a race meeting at Hilo on New
Years Day, which will eclipse all
previous efforts i'm the same line ever
made in the Rainy City.
He states that he will give the best
purses ever offered in these islands,
including a purse of $500 for PAGERS,
mile heats, best three in five, Louis
Morrell to drive his own horse De
nerva alias Hilo Boy.
1t is reported that Louis Warren
will enter his PAGER in this race and
if so, taking into consideration the
conditions, he may win if his horse
is of any account to speak of.
The people of Hilo and the adjacent
plantations are clamoring for a meet
ing on New Years Day and have
promised to give same their unqualifi-
ed support if arranged.
The program, subject to minor
changes, will be as follows:

THE BIG LEAGUES

The American League leadership
which Detroit has held almost contin.
uously this season, went to Philadel-
phia on August ). The Quaker City
team gained the top notch by double

the lead thus secured was augmented

MATCHES FOR
THE WRESTLERS

George Alton of Portland, Oregon,
who has made several appearances on
the local mat, is anxious to make a
match with Sailor Roberts, provided
the latter wants any of his game.
Alton will be ready in two weeks
time. His weight is about 100 pounds,
FroelicheT, who, by the way, claims
the wrestling championship of the
Territory, would like to tackle the
winner of the Allton-Roberts bout. He
would take on Roberts at once, but
thinks that, inasmuch as he is cham
.pion, Roberts should get something of

PROGRAM FOR HILO RACE MEET

The above purses total $3.50, the
biggest aggregate ever offered by a

sportsmen generally.

have got back its coveted trophy in
1909. The duke already owns a SUI
perb stud of ponies, and when the
best of the Recovery Funds ponies
Energy, Machine, Excelite, Wagtail,
Nutmeg, Pretty Boy, Velocity, ETC.
are added to them the stud will be
worthy of comparison with that
owned by Mr., Whitney.
There does not seem likely to be
any scarcity of suitable players when
the England team comes to be made
up next season. Captain Hardness,
Captain Leslie Cheape, Captain Her
bert Wilson and Mr.. Noel Edwards
will probably all be available again,
and an Anglo-Indian player, Captain
R. G.. Ritson, whose brilliancy has
been one of the features of the Lon
don season, will also be eligible for
the team.
Altogether England's prospects of
the trophy are brighter now
than they have been at any time since
1899.

MARATHONER
WANTS To COME

Dial Fahy, champion long distance
runner of Hawaii, and winner of the
only twenty-four-hour race ever pro-
NOTED here, has been heard from. He
has been in Reno, Nevada, for some
time but is at present in San Fran
cisco.
Dial writes the sporting editor of
The Star that he would like to return
to Honolulu and get back into the foot
racing game again.
81 have done considerable boxing
since l left Honolulu" he writes,
with much success and am in grand
shape. l may run down to the is
lands after September 1.
81 have been on the water-wagon
for the last twenty-one months and
have also resisted the temptation of
the seductive weed. l am sure that
in my present form ! can run away
from either Kaoo or King from fifteen
miles to the full marathon distance.
81 met Connie Hayes here in April.
He was doing we'll and said that he in
tended to stay, but that's what they
all say.
81 have an offer to go to Australia
in December and expect to take Char
lie Reilly with me. Charlie is boxing
in good form now and is better than
ever"
Fahy ran a number of good long
distance races here with practically
no training and if he has been taking
care of himself the way he says he
has there seems to be no reason why
he shouldn't come back" in run
ming sense, if he elects to come back
to Hawaii nei.
