PARASOIS FOR COPS.
Those on Traffic Duty May Use Them
 for Shade from Sun.

Parasols, such as are carried on some delivery teams for protection from the scorching sun, may be used in the future by the policemen on trat- fic duty during the hot part of the day. Whether they will be red, green or yellow is only a matter of detail. A wear ago the use of such equipment was advocated and it is probable that the police commission may consider such a recommendation at the next meeting. They are used in some cities and are greatly appreciated by the men on traffic duty.
 Parasols and umbrellas have not been a part of the regular police equipment. A few years ago super numerary policeman deatiled for duty on West Main street startled the resi- dents of the west end by patrolling his heat one stormy night and carry inc. an umbrella. The ludicrous fact was communicated to police headquar- ters and the supernumerary was called in out of the wet and shortly afterward quit the force.

WORLDS SERIES QUESTION.

Each day it becomes more apparent that either Cleveland or Washington has a chance to beat out the Red sox, who seem to be temporarily Houndering, with no certainty that shey will come back with the kick necessary to win the American league oennant Cleveland, only two games behind the Sox yesterday. has what to us looks like a good utside chance to win, since Bagby and Coveleskie are capable of pitching winning ball often and the team is keyed up for finish fight.

A. P. Helbush, the local long dis

running race from Keaau, Nine Miles,
Olaa, to Hilo in the near future. He
says there are many runners about on
the same mark and that there is keen
rivalry between them as to which is
the best runner.
Helbush suggests handicap race.
with the better runners at scratch
and the others at stations compen-
.sating for their agility.
In Helbush, Forbes, Carter. Macha,
do, and a couple of other runners, a
good scratch bunch could be obtained.
There is much interest being taken
in the proposed event and if some
business firm will donate suitable
trophy, the event may be pulled of
within a few weeks time.-IIilo Ti-
