The scores follow:
THE DOWNFALL OF BOXER KAUFMAN

Writing of the downfall of AL Kauf-
man at the hands of Palzer, the
white hope" a sporting expert in the
San Francisco Bulletin says;
Poor Kaufman There never was a
sweeter, cleaner boy in the ring. AL
was a model young man. He swore
seldomly, smoked rarely, and he was
innocent of the witcheries and vagar-
les of the flagon and wild wassail
He was a tender-hearted, wellbe-
haved boy. Some persons imagined he
was great fighter, but such persons
rarely go deeper into what constitutes
"a good fighter than the breadth of
shoulder, depth of chest and girth Of
bicep.
Kaufman lacked the one essential of
being a great fighter. He was never
vicious enough either in or out of the
ring. He was just good-natured big
Al to fight followers.
Kaufman was not trained, reared 20
the craft. He had the best that good
home surroundings could give, educa-
ton, fondness for society, books, the
trifing things-at least, trihing to
fighter.
Gameness, the ring never saw the
master of Kaufman in this phaze. He
had a courage as deep rooted as a red
wood tree, as rock riveted as Gibral-
tar. There was none of the hound"
in Kaufman
Punch! Kaufman had one shat
would dismount a bronze statue from
its pedestal.
But the boy was not vicious enough.
In his own defense he would fight to
the death. He hated to punish a foe.
Kaufman was tender-hearted as a fine
spirited lady. But the prize ring is
no place for the tender-hearted, ten
'derminded. Successful fighters are
present-day pirates. Their beautitudes

BOYS FIELD
BUSY SCENE

Interest in the Junior and senior
field and track meets to be held next
month under the superintendent of
Sam Hop, in connection with the Chi
nese New Years celebration, at the
Boys Field, are creating a great deal
of interest among Chinese athletes.
The Boys Field is being put in good
shape for training purposes and every
afternoon about thirty youthful run
ners are present at the Liliha street
track getting themselves in shape for
the events of the great day.
The meet promises to be one of the
biggest of its kind ever pulled OFF in
Honolulu and an immense entry is
looked for in the various events.
The only open event will be the mile
walk in which an attempt will be made
to lower the island record.

lare the same, or must be nearly simi
lar to those owned by stout.hearted
gentlemen who sailed the Spanish
main, Haunted the skull and cross
bones on the jolly Roger.
Kaufman also had the terrific fault
of being a slow, deliberate thinker.
AIS thoughts always moved with
about the same lack OF velocity that
becomes a Supreme Court justice, not
a fighter.
Kaufman fought some good fights in
his career, a few bad ones. His re.
cent defeat at the hands of Fireman
Flynn marked the retrogressiou of
Kaufman. His defeat last night at
the hands of a novice will wind up his
career with the padded mitts.
From press dispatches one can
gather that it was Kaufmans lack of
mental nimbleness that brought LIN
to grief The reports say that Palzer
started a punch from his own toe, sig
nailed Kaufman to watch out, but that
Al was too slow to get away from the
Imminent danger. The blow landed
and Kaufman went out.
Palzer's victory cannot be consid.
erred a fluke one. He knocked Kauf-
man down five times while the gloves
were rafting, and there is nothing
flukish about victory when the win,
ner fattens the loser FIVE times in as
many rounds.
Kaufman may still continue in the
ring, but the heights" now look abso
ilutely insurmountable. To be beaten
by Flynn and then Palzer, and both
knockouts, should open Kaufmans
eyes to the fact that he must be at 6
very low ebb.
Kaufman was a splendid fellow
with fine traits, and he has a multi
tude of real friends, and should A
start in some commercial business the
chances are he would succeed.

CANADA LOST
TO PASADENA

SAN DIEGO, January 5.-Mounted
on ponies trained to the last notch in
speed and efficiency, the Pasadena
Polo Club defeated the Canadian team
in a fast and holly contested game on
the Coronado Country Club grounds
this afternoon by score of points
to 61a.
Though the Canadians were in their
best form and played as brilliant on
the defensive as they have hitherto
this season, the Pasadena ponies We're
too fast for their mounts, which have
not as yet got into perfect condition.
But. even with this handicap, if Can
ada has not lost half a goal on a foul,
the score undoubtedly would have
been a tie
The teams lined up as follows:
Pasadena-Carlton Burke, No. l; Har-
ry Weiss, No, ?; Reggie Weiss, No. q;
Tom Weiss, No 4, Canada-K. Snow
den, No. / X. Notion No. 2; A. Hone,
No. 3: Major c. G. Ross, No, 4.
On Sunday afternoon the Pasadena
team will meet the Coronado four,
after which the northern team will
leave for home.

THE HOMELIEST MEN OF THE RING

Many artists, sculptors, and others
who should be good judges of human
beauty have always maintained that
Kid Broad, the lightweight boxer, was
the homeliest man that ever walked
about on two legs A good look at
the Kid, and you wanted someone to
ring the alarm clock and release you
from the nightmare.
Numerous great critics and students
of archaeology, however, steadfastly
held that Charley Burns of Cincinnati,
was homelier than Kid Broad. Mr..
Burns certainly did look like the Apol-
10 Belvidere-butted by an elephant.
His features were more of the classic
order than those of Mr.. Broad, but
there was certain profundity to the
expression that Mr.. Broad never car
ried, and the partisans of Mr.. Burns
asserted that his gave Mr.. Burns alb
solutely first rights in the race for the
prize of ugliness supreme.
A third faction, though, stuck to
Matty Matthews, of New York, aver
ring that there was never, in ancient
or modern history, the like of Mr.. Mat
thews as a paragon of vivid, breathing
hideosity. The gargoyles on the
Church of Notre Dame, so swore those
of the Matthewsians who had been
abroad, were Cupids and Gannymedes
in comparison with Mr.. Matthew'S
his was the prize, and no man, living
or dead, could match him in total sub
Unity of uglitude.
For several years the strife among
the devotees of the awful ragged might
lily. Jokes we're continually printed
concerning the rivals; pictures, distort
ing and exaggerating their finer fea
lures, were spread abroad, and all pug
dom chortled over the contest for the
anti.beauty stakes. Finally, as luck
and fighting dates would have it, al
three of the rivals met in Chicago
and became the best of friends. Daily
the air rang with the cries of little
children, scared to death by the sigh
of those three countenances, and acct

YACHT RACE
BIDS ARE OUT

Chronicle. That the 1912 Los An
geles to Honolulu yacht race will
eclipse all previous similar events n
the point of number of entries, at
least, is the opinion of Commodore
Warren d. Wood of the South Coast
Yacht Club, which with the Hawaii
Yacht Club, conducts the race annu-
ally. The race will start from San
Pedro on June II next, which is
Kamehameha independence day in
the islands.
Invitations to participate in the
Itranspacific event are being mailed
out to every recognized yacht club
both amateu. and professional, in the
United States. The race is open to all
yachts of not less than forty feet
water line length, belonging to any
regularly organized yacht club. There
are no restrictions as to rig, number
of crews nor sails. Nothing but sail
boats will be allowed to participate,
Time allowance will be given. This
will be based upon one-half hour per
foot of racing length for the entire
distance, the racing length to be the
load water line, plus onehalf of the
overhang.
Commodore Warren expects that at
least a score of boats will start.

Why the Women
Are Asking to Vote.

you please and you will at last be con-
WINGED that lax enforcement Of the
laws is the one thing which is making
VT men ask for the right of the ballot.
of course there are exceptions to the
rule, but a careful analysis Of the
situation reveals the fact that 1t is a
ilesirt to bring about a higher order
of government which makes the wom-

esty which is naturally theirs to min

True, they may find the task a hope
less one. but the good motive is there
Just the same.
Where the laws are enforced and
where the men in charge of the gov
srninent are gradually bringing 1t to
a higher plane there is no appeal from
the women to take a part in something
which is on account Of her finer ma
ture repulsive to her.
To illustrate our contention we re-
fer TO a statement made by Mayor
Susie Wissler. the first woman mayor
in the United States. She defeated
