(Mail Special of The Advertiser.)
HILo, May 14.-The closed Crater
Hotel had visitor last week. He was
an unwelcome one, however, and has
been committed for burglary as con-
sequence of his call.
A few deys ago Peter Lee discovered
that some one had entered the hotel.
He had devoted his entire attention to
the bar, taking away with him large
quantity of beer and whisky inside and
outside himself.
The burglar was found through his
enthusiastic indulgence in his easily
gained stock of liquor. He was team
ster for the lumber company, who In
the course of his work drove past the
hotel several times day. The thought
of the large stock of booze lying un-
guarded within a few feet of his path,
had proved too much for him. He fell,
secured great jag, quit his work in
order to devote his entire attention to
the booze, and therefore fell an easy
victim to the police when they went to
find the burglar.

Duke Kahanamoku continues to at
tract generous attention throughout
the East, OF the many press notices
the following from the New York Tele.
gram is among the most hattering:
Gone Of the most conspicuous figures
in the field of aquatics today is Duke
Kahanamoku, of Hawaii, American 100
yard swimming champion, holder of
the worlds straightaway record of SO
2-5 seconds; Uncle Sam s reliance man
for the 100 metre Olympic sprint.
"Totally unknown less than year
ago, he broke suddenly and unexpect-
eddy into prominence August ~, 1911,
when, at the first meet ever held under
the auspices of the Amateur Athletic
Union of Hawaii, he captured the three
free style swimming races on the pro
gram, winning the fifty yard dash in
"a 1-5 seconds, the century in 80 %
seconds, and the furlong in 2 minutes
AZ 3-5 seconds. So sensational were
these performances, particularly from a
novice competing in his first races,
that they were received with utmost
skepticism on every side
"'Since then, in spite of lack of
familiarity with competition in short
pools, and handicapped by inability to
make fast start or negotiate properly
the turns, he has defeated our best
hundred yard men with regularity and
ended by capturing the national title at
this distance Nor can there be doubt
that the 50 2-5 seconds record at
tributed to him is within his scope, for
even with slow starts and bad turns,
he consistently Travelled 100 yards
around 81 seconds.
Kahanamoku is n native of Homo
lulu and twenty-one years old He is
tall, handsome, dark skinned, ath-
lete, standing feet Ia inch in stock
ings and weighing 1875 pounds. 1.-the
of body and well muscled, he has an
ideal build for success in tests of speed,
strength and endurance, and he has
done well in many branches of sport
besides swimming. Rowing, sailing,
canoeing and water polo he took to
naturally.
CIT is in surf riding that he stands
in class by himself. This spectacular
and thrilling sport consists of ventur.
ing out in the sea, beyond the line OF
breakers, waiting for a big comber and
just as it is about to tumble, perch on
the top, gain momentum and shoot to-
ward shore on its crest, carried by ii
and travelling at terrific rate of
speed, sometimes for two or three hun
bred yards, until one reaches the beach
or the strength of the wave is spent.
"Some men ride the surf by just
swimming unencumbered; others use
board which they rest against the
body and hold in their hands; other,
again tackle it in canoes. Kahanamo
l1u does all three, but his greatest feat
is shooting the breakers in canoe and
standing on his head while the wave
