new
stunt FOR THE
ATHLETES

With the A. A. L. meets, and the
Cornell meet over, Honolulu athletes
had begun TO think that they had seen
the last OF the, track season for this
year, and great was their surprise
when the new Y NJ. G. A. indoor track
meet was. set before them. Track
this year has been so productive, and
so many records were made and
broken, that it seemed great plan TO
give the athletes one more chance
70 do still more in athletics.
The main purpose OF this meet as
stated by those in charge of it was as
follows: . ..*~ 49,.
AS athletics are for recreation, a
mans capacity for enjoyment along
this line is limited to his knowledge
of games or events, and his ability
to participate in them. Therefore as
an inducement for all around develop
ment the physical department of the
Y. NJ. c. A will hold its first annual
Pentatholon athletic meet, April 10,
1880 p. m. in the gymnasium of the
Y. NJ c. A IL. f.. ....
The meet, as stated above. is the
first one that will have been held by
the, local Y. NJ. c. A., and those in
charge of it are anxious TO make it
success. However, from the num-
Der that have expressed their desire
to participate, it seems that the meet
cannot help being success.
The meet is governed by several
interesting rules which only tend to
make it better and bigger event.
Each contestant is required to COM
pete in every event, the schedule be-
ing as follows: 100-yard dash, run
ming high jump, 16-pound shot put,
standing hop. skip and jump, and $50
yard run. All contestants will be
entered individually, there being no
teams or clubs represented. This
| means that each man will have to do
his best and the best man wins.
The scoring is based on 100 points
as perfect for each event, ranging
from zero up. There will be no heats
or finals for any event. To give the
| men the best chance possible and all
fair show, the first event for each
contestant will be the 100-yard dash
and the last event win be the $50
yard run. ,...'.. .-.' ....-a .-- ---
The meet is open to all senior mem
mers of the Y. NJ. c. A., who are anna
tours and have belonged to the as
sociation for at least three months
prior to the meet. This is to encour-
age amateur athletics and also create
interest in the association.
Prizes are to be given to the three
contestants holding the highest score,
| but no score will count unless each
contestant is entered in every event
The scoring is arranged as fol-
| lows: .." .....-.... 49,. :"...-
100-yard dash-13 seconds zero:
every fifth Of second less scores 10
points.
Running high Jump feet 6 inches
zero; every inch more scores 4 points.
16-pound shot put-14 feet zero;
every two inches more scores point
Stand hop, step, jump-21 feet zero;
every inch more scores points.
SS0-yard run-3 minutes 90 seconds
zero: every second less scores 2
| points. ~ -. "...
This method of scoring is fairer to
all concerned than any other method
as by it a man is marked according
to his merits. The harder he tries,
the better he does, the larger score
he gets. 49,.
This meet will probably be one of
the biggest drawing cards of the sea
son. ~

additional to say
Colonel Fielder said quite frankly
that he had engaged Detective Miles
TO find Gentry He said he had asked
the Burns Agency i'm every city to
locate the young steuographer as soon
as the youth disappeared after the
photograph episode. The attorney
added, however. that an error had
crept into an interview which pur-
ported to quote him as saying that he
had the key to the safe deposit vault
in which the new Gentry's sJeno-

Colonel Fielder denied that he had

ers in Washington. D. c., Wednesday

minute investigation of the statement
be made and the conditions under
which it was made be wired TO him

nographer's name had either been
forged or that Gentry had been CO.

MAYOR AGREES
WITH GENTRY'S
AFFIDAVIT

Mayor James G. Woodward said to-
day his recollection Of the converse
ton in room No. q at Williams House
No. . on May p. when he was dicto-
graphed by A. $. Colyar and associate
investigators" conceded exactly
with the ajdavit of George NJ. Gen
try, the stenographer, charging in
Temptations in the photograph rec
ords,
Gentrys affidavit was obtained
without suggestion from the Mayor,
who said he dismissed the whole mat
ter from his mind Immediately after
publication of the alleged photograph
records and thought no more about
il until Gentry's affidavit made it's ap-
pearance From the beginning the
Mayor regarded the photograph trap"
as dirty" but unimportant, and the
record as untrue. He lost interest in
the whole affair and his confidence
in the practical value of the dicto-
graph at the same time.
"Gentry's affidavit is just about
right, as | remember it," the Mayor
said to-day. 81 don't remember that
the name Of Beavers or Lanford was
mentioned while / was in the room at
the Williams House. I am sure I did
not mention either of them. I had
no more and no less interest in catch
ing Beavers or Lanford in anything
crooked than l did in catching any
body else in any department of the
city government"
Taking up the charge that interpo-
lations were printed along with the
actual conversation which took place
in the williams House, Mayor Wood
ward said:
81 said then, and / say now. that
my confidence in photographs was
very much shaken. l have always
thought a great deal of them, but
after that l said they should be in the
hands of mighty high toned people, or
else they would be susceptible of
great harm"
How lightly the Mayor regarded the
printed conversation, with its mac
curacies and additions. and how se-
riously young Gentry and his mother
looked upon them, may be CLEANED
from the following statement Of the
Mayor:
Gentry and his mother came TO me
right after those photograph records
were printed They were troubled
about it, and wanted to know what to
| do. and what / would do. / told them
I they had gotten themselves into this
and it was up to them 10 get them
selves out Of it. for I certainly would
not do anything about it. I dismissed
/ il from my mind absolutely.
II proceeded to forget about the
whole thing, and didn't think any
more about it till ] read this affida-
/ Wit. But ] didn't have anything to 10
with getting the affidavit. because [
still don't care anything about H."
As the Mayor continued talking.
! his ire was reused by recollection of
icertain incidents. Recalling the cir
cumstances connected with the die
tographing, he talked in caustic man
ner, saying:
THE whole thing was dirty. I told
young Gentry and his mother some
/ body had lied The whole thing was
gotten up 10y this ring I've been fight
/ ing. trying to discredi, me. Its the
same ring that controls the majority

not positive that ! heard I did
not hear Mayor Woodward men
ton Chief Beavers or Chief Ian
ford during the whole converse
ton. nor did ! write IL in the
transcription Of my notes, these
names being evidently added by
other parties. At 4:3O Thursday
morning. May %, / finished tran
sCribing my notes and turned the
papers over to Mr. FEBRUARY. Later
on during the morning he came
down to the office, bringing an
affidavit which I had written for
me to sign before a notary pub
lie. He told me that they had
made only q few minor changes
in the transcription and that an
l had to do was 10 sign the atii-
davit. which ! did. However. !
noticed that some interlineations
had been made in my copy, or
rather in Chief Lanford's copy, as
had no copy.
Refused Gentry Copy.
Colyar and the reporters, just
before I started TO trauscribe my
notes, argued as to the number
of copies that should be made
They agreed that one copy should
be made for the Chief. one for
Colyar and one for The Journal
and that no more should be made.
This kept me from having copy.
! had my notebook, however, and
IL was the comparison Of my
notes with the published articles
that led to my discovery that In
addition TO the several answers
and questions which Colyar had
personally dictated, other changes
had been made, namely, the in
sertiOn of the names Of Chief
Beavers and Chief Lanford, in the
conference with Mayor Wood
ward; also many other variations
occurred. changing the sense OF
the statement and since they had
my affidavit attached to the pa
pers. ! felt that ! had been duped.
As to the remuneration for my
services, will say that The Jour
nal reporters, Branch and Pas
Chal, agreed to pay me 50 10 get

night, so it could be published

DOES NOT KNOW HE
KILLED HIS FATHER
INTOXICATED AT TIME, ALTENISTS
BELIEVE HE WILL LOSE
HIS MIND.

NEW YORK, May 26.-Harry
Mann, twenty-nine years old, does not
vet know he stabbed and killed his
father, John, a Civil war vetern, at
their home last Wednesday night.
Mann, who was Intoxicated when he
killed his father, is under observation
by Dr. Frank A. Mcclure, an alien
list, and will not be Informed of the
charge against him until the inquest
is held, some day next week. He be-
lieyes he is charged with assault on
a policeman.
According to DR.. Mcclure. although
Mann Is sane, he has no memory of
anything that took place Wednesday,
and yet remembers wildly everything
he did on the day previous.
Since he has been in prison, Mann
has been kept in solitary confinement.
He has expressed surprise repeatedly
that his father had not been to see
him.
DIR. Mcclure believes that when
Mann is told that he killed his father
his mind may give away.
He Is suffering from the toxic eff
feet OF alcoholism" DR.. MCGUIRE said
today, land any shock at this time
might derange his mind. His Is a case
of complete asphasia of the period dur
ing which the murder was committed.
There is no sign of mental derange-
ment as yet"
