SPOR T S
HEALANIS AND MYRTLES CANNOT
AGREE ON KIND OF RAGING BOATS

For the past week or more the only
topic in rowing circles has been the
proposed compact between the Myr-
ties and the Healanis. and though no
thing of definite nature has been
reached, it is generally considered
that the Healanis will say nay to the
proposition. In orGer that the posi-
ton of the Myrtles in this matter
might be put on record without mis-
representation the sporting represen-
tative of The Star called on Mr. T. "
King, president of the Myrtle Club,
yesterday. While King stated that the
matter had passed out of his hands in
to those of the Subcommittee appoint
ed to see the Healani's representa-
, tives, he went over the whole matter
covering the relationships of the two
clubs for the past twenty years.
There had always been trouble
about the boats, said King, but it was
not always that the Myrtles had the
advantage, though he agreed that last
regatta the Freshmen had the better
boat in the Aft Rogers against the
Healani. 1t was after this regatta
when the old question of better boats
was brought up that Bert Hebron,
then president of the Healani Club,
! spoke to King about a compact King
thought it very good idea and acting
upon this suggestion which eman-
ated from the Healani's president. he
talked the matter over with various
people interested. The result was
that the Hawaiian Rowing Association,
which is composed of three members
of the Myrtles and three from the
Healanis, agreed to donate the sum of
! $500 towards the purchase of two
/ boats from keenan,, of San Francisco,
who was then, according to the reports
/ received from the Coast, turning out
better boats than any other builder
there. This step was done with the
! approval of the Healanis president,
and when a new president was elect
ed to the Healani club, he, Mr.. Jaeger.
/ signed the contract for the two boats
on behalf of his club and King signed
on behalf of the Myrtles True, no
compact in writing was entered into
between the parties at that time, but
the building of the two boats arose
out of the suggestion of Hebron,
when he was president of the Hea-
lanis. Then it developed that the Hea-
/ lanis had a boat on order with All
Rogers, a boat which may be better
than the Keenan,, but which may not.
When King brought the matter nj
entering into a compact with the Hea-
lanis before the members of the Myr-
tie Club it was with the idea of having
the talk of better boats effectively
squelched. The position was that two
new boats identical in every respect
were on order, and if both clubs
agreed to race in them alone, there

A DIALECT MAP ,oF CHINA.

A new map of China was recently
published by German house which
undertakes to transcribe the chief
names in the exact forms which they
assume in the dialects of the respect
i've provinces as well as the commonly
accepted form. In this way the fifteer
chief dialects are represented. The
commonly accepted form is printed in
dark green, the dialect form in black
Thus such unfamiliar forms appear
as Taetsiu for Taichow, Fupe for HUI
pei, Fulan for Human, Hokkiong for
Fukien, Ssjutschon for Suchow, etc.
Other features which make the map
valuable are the thoroughness with
which it treats Mongolia and the Ko-
konor country north of Szechuan-
regions which in most maps are left
more or less blank spaces.-National

FIGHTING BULLS
OF SPAIN

The famous. bulls of Spain are one
of the most interesting features of the
Andalusian plains.
The Spanish bull has a rather hol-
low back. His horns are large, rather
wide, and turned up and inward-nev-
err short, very thick and turned down
ward, as is usually the case with Eng
fish bulls
In his early youth he roams in COM
parative freedom over the plain. He
early makes acquaintance, however
with the garrochista's pic. Though
the latter is merely a pole with no
blade but only small point like the
shod end of an alpenstock, it is a
formidable weapon when dextrously
welded
At the age of about IL years a
crisis in the life of fighting bull
arrives. This ordeal, which every ami
NAL must go through, is one which,
according to a writer in the Wide
World, very few foreigners have seen.
In the cool of the late afternoon one
day a party of horsemen gather on a
plain, accompanied by a professional
picador. Two of the number, armed
with long lances, ride up to the herd.
I round which a guardian ring of
| horsemen. 1t should be mentioned
that the full herd has already been
split up into two portions by the re-
moval of the belled bullocks to dis
lance of some half mile away The
guards now allow a bull to escape, and
off goes the latter at once toward his
bullock friends, tail in air, securing
over the plain, closely followed by the
galloping horsemen.
The latter, indifferently mounted on
ewe-hecked ponies, do not usually sue
coed in overhauling their quarry for
couple of hundreds yards or so, but
then the nearest horseman, with his
lance at rest, ranges alongside and
delivers a prod The bull turns to one
side, letting up the other horseman.
who in turn delivers a thrust and
throws the bull over.
Up gets the bull and again fees,
pursued as before by the horsemen
The whole business is very like pig
sticking, with a much larger and slow
er quarry. This time the animal
makes toward the other horsemen.
who in scattered groups are for the
present spectators, and possibly
Judges of the sport
Before the bull reaches the latter,
however, one of his. pursuers ranges
alongside once more, when he receives
a third prod, and down he goes again,
Thoroughly annoyed, he swings
around for the charge, but his immed-
late adversary has galloped on and IS
out of reach. He turns his attention
therefore to No. 2. whose place has
now been taken by the professional
picador. This man. with couched
lance, awaits the bulls onset. The
latter charges again. and yet again.
to be received each time on the point
of the lance.
And so the game goes on. If the
bull. after receiving a plentiful sue

harm. is undismaved and continues N

could be no question as to either crew
enjoying an undue advantage over the
other 1t was simply to keep up the
sport between the two clubs that a
compact was proposed, and to suit the
Healanis, who had spoken so freely in
the matter, but if the Healanis do not
wish to enter into compact, the Myr.
ties will be just as pleased If the
Healanis race in the new ALI Rogers,
against the keenan, boat which the
Myrtles will have, and if the ALI. Rog-
ers proves to be a better boat, it will
simply be the same old story and the
Myrtles will the following year have
a craft which will be as good as the
new ALT Rogers, or even better than
it. The old game of the longest purse
will be entered upon, and the same
cry of better boats will prevail.
In thu conversation King made ref
erence to the shell races which used
to be held between the two clubs and
which have been discontinued. When
the she'll races first commenced the
Myrtles had a new racing shell in ad-
dition to the practice boats, and the
Healanis only had the practice boats.
When the Healanis pointed out to
King, who was then Captain of the
Myrtles, that it was manifestly unfair
for the Myrtles to use the racing shell
against the Healanis practice boat,
King agreed with them and the re-
suit was that the racing shell reposed
on the shelf for three years until t
was ruined. In the meantime the Hea-
lanis secured a racing shell, but would
not agree to continue racing in the
practice boats because the Myrtles'
racing shell was ruined So the shell
races fell through.
Now is the time for the two clubs to
get to some such arrangement. AS
the Healanis have not finally said no.
it would be a splendid thing for row.
ing in particular and sport in general
if the Healins looked at the matter
fairly and squarely as it stands at
the moment, and either agree to race
in the keenan, boats, or else go ahead
and use whatever boat they think fit,
but deciding once and for all to per-
nit the Myrtles to do likewise with
out the eternal cry of better boat
AS far as the Myrtles are concern
ed, according to President King, they
will race the Healanis irrespective If
the boat used by the Healanis: But il
the new boat is better one than any
used by the Myrtles, then the Myrtles
will go Sahead and rectify the differ
ence.
1t is likely that a proposition will
be made by the Myrtles to race the
Healanis in shells on June 18th. the
anniversary of the birth of King Ka-
mehameha I, at Pearl Harbor, where
there is a straightaway course for a
mile and three quarters.
