One hun dred Californians, under the auspices of The California Promotion Committe, and other commercial organizations of California, went to the Exposition in a magnificent special train, and they have re turned filled with the vast importance of this exposition as an educational factor in the development and upbuilding of the Coast. What these hundred Califonians have seen should be seen by evey one.

The cry "Maui for us" was heard many times from the returning passengers from Hilo who had attended the races there last week. The Honolulu sports realize that on Maui clean and honest rac ing has always been the rule and stated timo and time again on their way back from Hilo this week that they would in future at tend the races here instead of going to Hilo where they claim the races of the Christmas Holidays and of the Fourth of July were unfair and a disgrace. Dishonesty has killed horse racing in many of the states and from what is being said by the returning passengers from Hilo it is very probable that the racing course of that town will never again draw a crowd. The races at Kahului have always been won by the best horses and while some of the owners and followers of the track knew just what the speed of the various horses were and thereby had the best of the situation in estimating a result of a race there has been no crooked work here and if the present plan to induce the Hono lulu contingent to come here next year succeeds there will be a Lirger attendance than ever at the race course next year.

Deferred to Friday morning. Letter was read from Kai, County Clerk of Hawaii, returning letter sent to him by mistake from the Honolulu Land Commissioners ollice in reference to the land ex change.

Struck by a heavy swell, the gaso line wit Miner Rainliow, of Honolulu with twenty-five school children and a numlx'r of women nhonrd, turned turtle on Sunday afternoon in the Molokai channel. One life was lost, a Hawaiian woman. The accident occurred off Pukoo, Molokai, during a Fourth of July pleasure cruise. The party was thoroughly enjoying their cruise, thinking of everything but of danger to themselves. The swell came .up without warning. The little vessel heeled over, and, before anything could lie done to avert the accident turned and threw the party into the water. Men, women and children flound ered about in the choppy sea, the members: of the crew and the men assisting the .vomen and children to the upturned hull, to which they clung while the small lioat. the only one, was recovered. This was right ed and baled out and the shipwreck ed merrymakers taken ashore, whili the hull of the overturned schooner sank lower and lower as the air be neath was forced out. Almost as Sim m as the last of those clinging to it had been taken off, the schooner partly turned, the sustaining air belched out and the Raiulxiw sank. The affair did not pass, unfor tunately, without loss of life, a woman, a Hawaii. in, dying after being brought ashore. Since the above was set up we learn that the boat went to Ha!a wa and while there took a full load of people for Kaunakakai. It passed the most dangerous point called Puupoi without accident. When two miles past Honotilima loo the boat went down in a great swell. It sheered off and the cap tain who was at the wheel was washed overboard and the boat capsized. Some cowboys saw the accident and telephoned to Deputy Sheriff Duvauchelle who ordered out all the boats of Waialua. Mr. O Tollefsen the owner of the Rain bow brought a load of women and children ashore in a small boat Three grown men and fourteen children swam ashore while Rev. Kaalawahi and a man by the name of Kila stayed with the smaller children and women until they were rescued by the large boat and Jhree canoes sent by Duvauchelle. The boat was valued at $2500. It sank immediately after the peo ple were rescued. NOTICE. Notice is hereby given that L.
