states of the United States and from
Europe they come by the thousands

Mr.. Fortune is well qualified to speak
of these problems. For the past twelve

MAUI AFTER
JULY CROWD

Maui News: The Maui racing sea
son is on again, and life at Spreckels
park, Kahului, win be a strenuous
one from now until the Fourth of
July. Hilo has always threatened a
counter attraction each year, and this
year they are making more noise than
ever, but the real sport will be here
on Maui Every year Hilo draws a
few with the big noise, but everyone
knows they get good days racing on
Maui, and the great majority come
here each year regardless of the count
er attraction.
This year the track will be in bet
ter condition than ever before, and the
seating capacity will be greatly en-
larged.
A number of horses are already at
the track, four of them being from
Honolulu. The stalls have all been
engaged, and O'Rourke 4 IIilo will he
on hand with his horses as usual, in
an effort to lift the big purses.
1t looks as though Maui horses will
be a much bigger factor in the racing
than last year, and Mr.. O'Rourke will
have the time of his life getting away
with everything as he did last Fourth.

MAUI PLANS
A MARATHON

Maui News: The ten mile race for
Maui runners last Fourth of July
morning, was such a success, that the
promoters have decided to repeat the
race again this year. There is a lot
of work attached to getting up a race
of this sort, as the money FOR the
prizes must come through popular sub
scription. Last year the time made,
considering that the men in the race
had very little experience, was ex-
ceptionally good. This year there
will doubtless be many more entries,
and the boys will have more time in
which to get into condition.
In addition to the foot race, it is
proposed to have ten mile handi-
cap bicycle race. This should prove
quite an addition and should draw a
large entry list
The prizes last year were good, and
an effort will be made to have equal
ly good prizes again this year for
10th events.
Entries will be received for the foot
Ince at the Maui News Office up to
July 1. For the bicycle race the en-

A MESSAGE FROM THE
CANADIAN NORTHWEST.

Central Union church is doing a
splendid public service in connection
with its popular Sunday evening serv-
Ices in bringing before the people OF
Honolulu, from time to time, men OF
note from different parts of the world
to tell of the happenings in their re.
sDective countries.
Tomorrow evening the Rev. w. G.
w. Fortune, of Edmonton, Alberta
Canada, will deliver an address on
"The Problems of the Canadian South
west"
That this new country has such
problems goes without saying, for per
haps no section of the American con,
tinent is growing as rapidly as is
western Canada at the present time
AS an instance of this rapid growth
may be cited the city of Calgary which
seven years ago had a population OF
less than ten thousand and today is a

HiIO Lion Will

At Athletic Park

Honolulu Is to be given sporting
innovation in the shape of an open
air boxing exhibition.
On June at p. m. two attractive
preliminaries will preface fifteen
rounds between Ben de Mello and
George Ingle at the Athletic Park.
These curtain events will be in the
nature of six-round bouts between
Young Cans and Moriarity, the Fifth
Cavalry favorite; and Wahilani, the
hard-hitting native and Trooper
Bauersock of the Fifth Cavalry.
The ring will be erected near the
home-plate and will be of regulation
size. The bouts will be pulled off
without delay so as to let the specta'
tors get home in time for dinner.
This will be the first open-air box
ing exhibition ever pulled off in Ho-
nolulu and if it proves to be a success
more events of this nature will be
staged.
Popular prices will be charged for
all but ringside seats, which will be
sold for two dollars. The reserved

BIKERS WANT
LIMIT CHANGED

There is considerable discussion
among the bicyclists as to the age
limit for the Haleiwa junic" race.
AS originally arranged the limit for
the event was placed at sixteen years.
This, it appears, is not favorably re-
garded by the junior bikers who want
the limit set at eighteen years and
under.

The matter will be considered at q

.BOWLERS BANQUET WAS MERRY FUNTION

The bowlers' banquet at the Y. NJ

Nearly thirty were present, COM
prising the most prominent bowlers
in Honolulu.

and the decorations were Of a very
original character.

scented the medals and trophies Won
in the two recent tournaments.
A silver loving-cup went to W. Will

was also handed the mineralite ball
presented by w. o. Franklin for the

priced at seventy-five cents, the COW
cred bleachers at fifty cents, and the
uncovered bleachers at two bits.
Ingle, Young Cans and Wahilani will
train together and will go into camp
On Monday.
Word was received from Ben de
Mello this morning to the effect that
he is training hard and will arrive ;y
the steamer Mauna Kea next Satur-
day.
Despite reports to the contrary
Young Caples will remain in Hawaii
for at least seven or eight months
longer. He is DESTROYS of making an
other appearance in the squared cir
Gle and feels confident that he can
make a better showing than he did
IN the occasion of his debut with
Johnny Mccarthy.
Caples made good impression on
the fans by his spirited boxing in the
earlier rounds of his bout with Nc
Carthy and also by his undoubted
gameness.
He will be given a chance to meet
some local boxer in the not distant
future.

MAUI BALL
SEASON OPENS

Maui News: Baseball opened up
last Sunday, and a practice game
was played in Waikiki between the
Stars and the Kahuluis, and another
game at Paia between the Camp One
team and the Paja second team
The game at Waikiki was very
ragged, and the boys showed plain
ly their long layoff during the win
ter months. The Kahului team
we're unable to hit Bal to advantage
at any stage of the game, while the
slow twisters of Russell were knock
ed to all corners of the lot. The vet.
eran George Cummings was not in
the Star lineup, and it looks as
though George was going to be con
tent to rest on the sidelines this year.
The passing of this player from &c.
tive work on the diamond is a gen.
uine loss, because with him in the
game, things must go with a snap,
George was always full of ginger on
the ball field, and he was a sterling
player as we'll.
At Paia, the Camp One team de-
feated the Paia's by a score Of 8 to Z
In a well played game.

Irish Woman Shows Great soIlcltuds

Lonepole's Neck.

The other day Mr.. Longpole went
over to Brooklyn on business. He
boarded a Fulton street car, and
scarcely had taken his seat when an
amply-proportioned, good-natured look
ing Irishwoman pumped down next
him. A few moments later Mr.. Long
pole felt that the woman had turned
part way round and was regarding him
attentively. Presently she raised one
fat hand and, with the fingers brought
closely together at the tips. cautiously
approached 1t toward his neck, saying
at the same time in loud, cheerful
voice:
"Ixcuse me, but you've lady boog
crawlin' on yer neck, an III take it
of for ye. careful-like, so as not to
frighten the poor baste" With that
she advanced her hand still further
and gently plucked the insect from
Mr. Longpole's neck "There!" said
she triumphantIy "I have It in me
two fingers. See!" and she held the
bug up for his inspection. Then, con-
templating 1t more closely and cordial
ly including all the passengers in her
remark, she said: LADY boogs do be
