Tourist Hotel
Bubble BurSted.

We are not surprised or grieved
that the big tourist hotel" bubble
in Hawaii has bursted. We are
willing to be convinced that it is not
the rankest folly TO spend cent of
taxpayers money to lure globe
trotters and sight-seers here; but
such an influx has never spelled
permanent prosperity in any land
we have seen.
The time may come when such
big hotels will be profitable, then
they will be only an incident TO our
prosperity, Small homes, and not
big hotels are the touchstone that
will make Hawaii rich. We need
to anchor this idea in the centre of
our noodles, and sidetrack tourist
promotion while we bend every
energy to getting good men on the
land, and protecting them there in
making a living. One man on the
soil is worth a dozen tourists on the
big hotel'' verandah. .-kohaka

Oahu Wins
First Game

Especial Correspondence
Honolulu July %, 1912.

Oahu 8. Maui ia.
When the man from Hilo was
asked il he considered polo good
sport he replied quickly:
Il haze me doots."
To me it is the swellest kind of a
function; something greater, as to
fashion, than the great balls that
are given here during a season, lack
ing only evening dresses for the
ladies. Whatever polo may be in
India, where | believed it originat-
ed, there is not here u function
greater than that at which all Homo
lulu society gathered in Moanalua
field last Saturday.
The players were as fit as the
ponies and better ponies never pranc-
ed field. And how they did go
across as the ball hurtled from one
end or side to the other. Gay jack
cts and gay costumes. White among
the ladies predominated but there
were those who wore the colors of
their favorite sides. 1t was great
sight and a great game. Personally
1 counted two hundred and fifty
eight automobiles and followed the
count with a mental calculation Of
the gate receipts. figured that
each driver paid his ten dollars for
a position. Figure that out. Then
1 estimated the gathering, in autos
and out, at fifteen hundred and put
the receipts for the day at four
thousand, or more dollars. AS a
matter of fact the receipts were
about fifteen hundred dollars for
there is reserved section sufficient
to accommodate only eighty auto
mobiles; the rest just stick around
where they can get good holding
ground.
1t is conceded on all sides that a
better game of polo was never seen
here. And while Oahu won by a
small margin the Maui boys made
them work for every tally and dur
ing every period. 1t was a hard
game for the players and it is COM
mon remark today that the quality
of the play as well as the quality of
the horse flesh was never equalled
| in an inter island contest. talked
with John Fleming before the game
and he gave it as his opinion that
the winners would be playing in
luck; neither side had an advantage
in men or animals and the men who
gave odds in the betting were taking
a gamblers chance; the decision
would go to the team that had luck
behind it.
And Oahu got the decision with
or without any element of luck. The
gameness in the pulling up won the
team all sorts of praise after Maui
had Oahu virtually in the door.
The local team was practically beat
en- for at half time Maui was six to
Oahu three. But the ten minutes
rest probably saved the local team.
At the call of time they showed
team work that was remarkable fol
its eXactness. Then Maui was
weakened by being deprived of the
service of three of the teams best

team work was almost beyond crit.

better of the other. Perhaps in the
last half the team work of Oahu stood

Hawaii
Wins Race
Captain Crozier Tells How He Won
From Captain Harris.


hului last Friday evening, and re-
main in port till Sunday morning,
when she sailed for Honolulu, on
her return from her winning race
to Hilo with the Lurline.
Captain Crozier was quite elated
over his win, as he beat the Lurline
i'm her own kind of weather, light
winds.
By dousing her lights just at the
last hour and using all his knowledge
OF sailing yacht to best advantage
Capt. Crozier brought the yacht
Hawaii across the line ten minutes
ahead of the Lurline which was in
command of Captain Lew Harris.
After the boys went on shore Cap
tain Harris claimed the win, stat
ing that he had got to Hilo two
hours ahead of the Hawaii but the
figures taken by Captain Colcord
and two quartermasters from the
bridge of the steamer Columbian,
which was lying at anchor in the
bay show that the Hawaii crossed
over at 1884 a. IN. and that the
Lurline followed suit ten minutes
later.
The yachts made an extra long
passage Of it as they left Honolulu
at three O'Clock Saturday afternoon
and did not arrive in Hilo until
Tuesday morning. Crozier gave a
splendid exhibition of sailing and
completely outclassed Harris.
The yachts had an ordinary sailing
breeze until Monday morning and
then they ran into very light winds.
Striking the Hamakua coast Harris
brought the Lurline in close expect
ing Hawaii to follow him. Instead of
this, however, Crozier kept well out
into the Channel and while those
on the Lurline thought they were
leaving the Hawaii away behind
she was in reality holding her own
we'll.
Captain Colcord of the steamer
Columbian undertook to keep look
out for the boats and stayed up on
the bridge until they came in. He
had two quartermasters with him
80 that there should be 40 doubt
as to the decision being right. Short
ly after twelve o'clock he sighted
the yachts coming out of the gloom
and at thirty four minutes past
midnight the Hawaii slipped across
the line firing her gun as she did so.
Ten minutes later the Lurline cross
ed the line on the port side of the
big steamer.
Where Crozier beat Harris was
that while the latter had kept to
the coast all the way along the
former had sized up the situation
better. Just at the last moment and
when the Lurline was looking for
wind the Hawaii was slipping
through the water under stiff breeze
and sailing right for the line while
the Lurline was tacking about trying
to get across to winning position
There remained just one more
tack to make. Crozier looked at his
chart and saw where rock was
marked about twenty square feet
1t was either a chance of hitting this
or of losing the race and he tool
the chance. The boat slipped through
the water. Would they hit the rocl
and lose out? This was the thing
that was worrying everyone. "Weal
ship" the cry rang out and rounC
came the graceful little yacht. The.
had cleared the rock and few
moments afterwards their winning
gun rang out.

The Latest
In Sports
What the WrestIers. Boxers and Base
Ball Artists Are Doing.

That many of the contests at the
recent Olympic games must have
been of heartbreaking nature can
easily be seen by the following des-
cription of the 1900 meter race,
when jackson made new worlds
record.
Perhaps never before have there
been two such contests as the 5000
meters and 1900 meters run on the
same day. In the latter it was a
gruelling contest from start to finish.
Abel r. Kiviat and Norman S. Tab
er, the American representatives,
came into the stretch together.
Jackson went all the way round the
last lap at terrific pace, passing
the four men in order to get up
with the leaders. With Kaviat
slightly in advance ten yards from
the tape, Jackson fairly leaped ahead
and fell exhausted into the arms of
his friends. So close was the race
for second place between Kaviat and
Tabor the judges reserved their de.
cision until a photograph of the
finish was developed before ANNOUNCE
ing the second and third man.
The final heat of the 100-meter
swimming race was won by the Ha-
waiian, Duke" Kahanamoku.
Healy of Australia was second, and
Kenneth Huszgah, Chicago Athletic
Association, third. Time, :03 2-5.
This is one second slower than the
worlds record established by the
winner in his previous heats. Bret
ting, Germany; Longworth, Austria
liza, and Raume, Germany also COM
peted.
The Hawaiian, who has become
one of the most popular characters
at the Olympiad, had a distinguish
ed assembly to witness his triumph.
The royal box was crowded, the
party including the King, Queen,
the Crown Prince and the Crown
Princess.
When the pistol sounded the six
bodies hit the water with one splash.
The Hawaiian was easily ahead, and
half way down the tank turned to
survey the field. His nearest rival
was ten feet behind. Kahanamoku
let up after that and seemed to
swim leisurely. The others, extend
ing themselves to the limit, gained
on him, although he grasped the
platform two yards in advance of
Healy. The Hawaiian was given an
ovation when he passed to the dress
ing-room.
Albert Griffith, known in the
pugilistic world as kid Critic, :"
and for several years the lightweight
champion of Australia, was arrested
in Chicago recently charged with
soliciting aims. The former cham
pion, shabbily dressed and hungry,
was lined up at the station-house be-
fore Sergeant Harden, who knew
him well in his palmy days and re-
cognized him despite the 200 pounds
of flesh which concealed his once
athletic frame.
Fifteen years ago, said Sergeant
Sheridan, reminiscently, Critic
used to bet $1,000 no one could knock
a cigar from his mouth while he
stood on a handkerchief. He did
not step off the bit of cloth and he
did not strike blow. He merely
lodged, and always won his bet.
His first fight in this country
was for purse of $4,000 at the
Broadway Athletic Club. He Won,
and the cashier brought him a big
roll Of greenbacks-three one thou
