How Perfume Ia Weiohed.

1t was the Italian physician Salvt
on1 who devised a microbalance OF
such extreme delicacy that it clearly
demonstrated the loss OF weight Of
musk by rehabilitation. Thus the in
visible perfume floating of in the air
Is indirectly weighed.
The essential part OF the apparatus
Is very thin thread Of glass. fixed
at one end and extended horizontally.
The microscopic objects to be weighed
are placed upon the glass thread near
It's free end and the amount of flexure
produced Is observed with a micro
scope nagnifying 100 diameters.
A mote weighing one thousandth
OF milligram Is said perceptibly TO
bend the thread-Buffalo Courier

SPORTS TO AID
FAMINE FUND

To aid in the relief of the famine
stricken hordes in China local Chinese
athletes are to combine in exhibition
games of baseball and association
football at the League grounds, Moi
liili on Sunday next, commencing at
1870 p. M, and the support of all
sports who are charitably inclined
is earnestly requested. The two games
promise to be very interesting. AS
ball players the Chinese lads can be
depended on to put up a game of a.
creditable standard, and those who
saw the lads play soccer football
know that the boys are fast getting
grip on the game. Though the foot
ball may not be quite up to coup"
form in England, the home of soccer.
it will certainly be game worth the
seeing; amusing if not very instruc-
tive.
In the football match the Hawaiian.
Chinese soccer team will stack up
against the Chinese Athletic Unions.
and in the ball game the Chinese
Students Alliance will meet the Chi
nese Athletic Union. These two teams
played on this ground a few weeks
back and put up quite a good game,
though there were many errors. Since
then, however, the boys have settled
down to better play and a keener
game is expected.
The committee in charge of the ben
eft games includes many of the best
known Of local Chinese, and in addi-
tion to the support of the entire Chi
nese community, it is hoped that large
contingents of the other nations rep
resented here will roll up to assist
in the relief of the sufferers in far
off China.

BOXING BOUTS
SHAPING WELL

Of the five bouts scheduled for next
Saturday evening at the Orpheum the
alter the most interest will be centered
in the bout between Armstrong and
Fink for the welterweight champion
ship of the Hawaiian Islands, but, ac
cording to Nigel Jackson, fans will be
agreeably surprised at the classy nat
ure of the other bouts.
Fink and Armstrong both appeared
in the last series of boxing bouts and
both won out, the former after four
rounds with Sullivan and Fink in rs
seconds. In matching the men jack
son took something of a chance with
Armstrong but he declares that the
result of the bout will fully justify
him Fink is working out nicely at
the Camp with Sarcone and others
and is already feeling fit. Armstrong
and takes in all there is to be seen
but he leaves the talking to others.
He is certainly training hard, and
when asked to express his opinion as
to the result of his battle with Fink
he quietly remarked that if he lost it
would not be for want of trying.
Sarconi will probably be favorite for
his bout with Denton, but as the lat
ter is more or less of a dark horse it
is hard to say what will happen.
Denton did not have much chance of
showing his skill against Price, for
Price wasn't taking any fight, and
Denton spent most of his time in the
ring trying to get punch through
Prices double guard. However, he
will have all the chance he requires
against Sarconi and will have to live
up to his Manila reputation to win
out.
The De Mello-West scrap is very
one-sided as regards weight, for West
has a great deal the better of mat
tiers in this regard. This does not
worry De Mello any, for he declares
that he can handle West without much
discomfort West has the weight and
is credited with possessing a very
serviceable punch; if this is so, De

Weighing up the chances Of Ka-
mehameha against Oahu College in
the field and track meet of next Sat
urday it would seem, taking the per-
formances of Oahu college last Sat
urday and the results attained at
Kamehameha in the preliminary
meet Of a week ago, as the basis for
the calculation, that Punahou will win
out perhaps a trifie easier than they
did against the College of Hawaii.
But tell this to a Kamehameha stu
dent, and it provokes an emphatic as
sertion that such will not be the
case.
In the 100 yards, the 22O, the quar-
ter mile, the high jump and possibly
the hurdles, Kamehameha seems
to have more than a fair chance of
winning, also in the relay race but
in all the other events first place
seems a certainty for Punahou.
For the 100 yards Punahou will
have Ran Hitchcock, w. Morgan and
e. Gay, against H. Godfrey, G.. Mona
ha and c. Hosea, but it is quite on
the cards that Godfrey will win safely,
and third place also may go to the
Kams
In the 220 Ran Hitchcock may again
be defeated by Godfrey, but he may
be expected to fill second place with
Morgan close up next. A. Kalanihuia
for the Kams may press Morgan hard.
This promises to be a good race,
perhaps one of the best of the day.
In the quarter mile it is again Cod
frey for the Rams, with S. Hussey
slated for second place, so that Puma
hou may only get third with F..
Glib. The Rams did better in their
trial quarter than Bill Rice did in
winning for the College of Hawaii.
Ncttage and Logan Williams ought
to fill first and second places in the
half mile for Punahou and F. Kalani
may notch a point for the Kams.
The mile also looks a very good
thing for Punahou with Pete Young
carrying the blue and gold colors.
Cyril Damon should get second and

SPOR T S
PUNAHOU SLATED TO
BEAT KAMEHAMEHA

possibly G. Benjamin will get third
for the Kams
w. Waialeale might win the hurdles
for the Kams, but second and third
places look like going to e. Gay and
w. Patty for Oahu College. w. Ka-
maiopili and Ben Pahia will probably
also run for the Kams.
The high jump should certainly be
won by H, Brandt, of Kamehameha,
whose #. 8 in. in training is very
good indeed. The best done on Sat
day was feet by Ran Hitchcock,
Logan Williams and d. Baldwin, but
this height is sure to be improved on,
and the Punahou jumpers may fill sec
ond and third places, against ]. Ka-
lanihuia and Waialeale for the Kams
First and second places in the
broad jump ought to be taken by
w. Hitchcock and e. Gay between
them for the Puns, with Kamaiopili in
third place for the Rams.
The brothers Hitchcock of Puma
hou, are expected to take first and
second honors in the pole vault, with
j. Kauhi third for the Kams.
Inman may win the shot-put for
Punahou but Kamaiopili, who register
ed 80 #. II in. in training, ought ut
least to get one point for the Kams.
One place only in the hammer
throwing is all that the Rams are
expected to make, while the relay
race ought to be the best event of the
day.
In this event the Kams are fancied,
despite the fact that the Oahu College
can put in a fast quartet in P. Hitch
cock, Morgan, Baldwin and Gay. For
the Rams, Godfrey, Monaha, Hosea
and possibly, Kalanihuia will run.
After a speedy race it is expected that
the Rams will win out
Taking the foregoing as being about
correct, the result of the meet will be
that the Oahu College will net 81
points against the Kams 40. OF course
much might happen between now and
the time of racing to upset all these
calculations, but they are interesting
as indicating how the chances are
viewed by one man at least.

frankie Burns, the Oakland light
weight, defeated Lew Powell after 10
rounds of fast fighting at San Fran
cisco, on the 9th ult. Burns had the
better of the fight all the way. He
was the aggressor throughout and
had Powell all but out in the twelfth
round. He then stood off for a couple
of rounds, during which time Powell
revived considerably, and the pair
made the pace very warm in the fif-
teenth, sixteenth and seventeenth
rounds. The eighteenth was also
fought at terrific pace, Burns doing
all the leading, but in the nineteenth
Burns fairly overwhelmed Powell with
the ferocity of his attack and fought
the Frisco boy off his feet. Seeing
that Powell had no chance of lasting,
the referee stopped the bout at this
point and awarded it to Burns.

President Knudsen of the Senate this
morning asking for game of baseball
for Saturday next on the Athletic

no reply had been received from the

worth stated that he had heard nothing
about the matter. However, it was
expected that word would be forth
coming from the Senate during the
afternoon. The game is to be played
for the benefit of the Iepers at Molo-

letic park has given the use of the
grounds free.
