entries, and to accomodate the ex

built and everything around the
grand stand put in shape.
Tomorrow the course will be closed

the excitement of speeding horses
and flashing colors', of waving flags
and shouting crowds which are the
essence of a Roman holiday.

roiiiid the horses whose mettle are
t be tested to the fullest Monday
next. There is Aidion. an old favo
rite, and, if there is any merit in
the records, he ought to top the
bunch in each of the four races in
which he is entered. His record on
tlie Kahului track is a half a mile
in 51 .sec.,' three fourth a mjle in
1.22 1-5 and a mile in 1.53. At the

Another line racer is Adriana Le
coureur, who is 'likely to give her
rivals in the three-eighth and three
fourth of a mile races a run worth
the money. She is another new com
er from the coast, and John O'Roukc
her owner will pill his money on

the pony race is the pride of Puu
nene, and promises to give Coquette
andPoni Moi a run for their money.
The Puunene boy's will back their
favorite against all others for all you
want to put up.
Jerry Broderick's fine sorrel mtire
Copit is one of the prettiest animals
entered. She will run in three races,
- and holds the best record of any on
the Kahului tracks at recent tryouts
on the three-eighth of a mile stretch,
doing it in thirty-six seconds. If
she does that Monday all others will
. have to take dust from her.
The sable beauty Cyclone is en
tered for one of the trottihg events,
and promises to make it a close and
iutcrsting finish for the winner of
the 8250 purse if he does not win it
himself as some appear to think is
quite likely. Cyclone holds a record
of 2.07 a mile on the Emorysville
track, and 2.12 a mile at the Ka
Diolani Park track Honolulu. Ho
may be old but ho can still go some
Cal. Leonard's fine mahogny
brown mare Flavigncy is another
new nicer, one is one oi mo iavo-
rites in the great mils and a quarter
event for the $500 purse. Nothing
much is known . about her, as her
trainers, tend strictly to business
and- will let out no hint to satisfy the
tturious. She lias been on the Sheeps-
head track New York where she
came in fourth of a bunch of 2(5 fine
racers in a mile and a quarter race.
When let out a bit at the trial spins
she shows such grct speed as to as
tonish the natives, but tho short
turns of a half a mile track bothers
her sonic.
Another horse with a record is
Harry Hearst. In the 'Hilo meet,
January 1, 11)01), he won the mile
trotting and pacing events, doing
tho two heats in piQ and 2:33
respectively. With Johnny Green be
hind him all the best qualities of
the racer will be brought into play.
In a close race a good jockey is a
big factor in making the wire ahead
of others.
The racer Indigo is in prime con
dition and shows well on the track.
He has the sharp turns in tho
half mile course down pat jloing
them better than any other racer,
and in a way it looks as if he is a
bout to turn the trick and even up
scores with Major Collier, which how
ever does not seem to bother the
backers, of the famous Maui racer
Another fine racer iB Lady Ber
nice, a dark bay mare, entered by
A., Garcia. She is from the coast and
had beaten another horse in a match
race in. Honolulu. She is ono of the
dark horses, and will make Adriana
Leco-urcur, Copit and St. Avon hus
tle some when the Hag drops.
The pacing stallion from Kauai,
Lihue, will have all he can do to
get ahead of Naniwa, who has a re
cord to the good in trotting races.
But then Jake, the unknown may
keep the two a-guessing.
Major Collier is one of tho best
racers tmtered. He has a whole string
of winnings to his credit, and had
beaten Indigo three times on the
Hilo track, January 1, 190!), where
he made a mile in 1:50. Number
nine on tho program will bo interst-
ing when Indigo will race with him
against the unknown Lady C.
Mr. 11. Gross' beautiful sorrel
gelding Maui has attracted consider
able "attention. Once the trainer let
him out for a quarter of a mile, and
his time was ticket off on soveral stop
watches. Interested backers of the
other trotters exchanged grins and
remarked what show have we got
against a horse that never was on
th track befo, who can do that?"
The stop watches had registered
31 J seconds for the quarter mile
Reyvera or Revotta is another
racer whoso performances will be
watched with interest.
' St. Avon is another beautiful ani
mal from John O'Rourke's stables.
He is a dark horse that .will keep all
tho others guessing. Ho is to run
against Copit in three races which
will make things especially interest
ing for Jerry's pet.
Telephone Tenyou is a line sorre
mare and Young Station an un
known animal owned by Japanese
Both are bunched to run against tho
old time favorite Aidion.
Another ono of John O' Rourke's
lino horses is Webber. It is said ho
is after Major Collier's scalp, but
the backers of Major Collier are
quite willing to have him try it, witl
them its "the more the merrier."
Louis Warren's bay Warning
is
a great horse. Among those who
claim to know, Warning is checked

of any to tho $500 purso in the milo

Is Uaderway.
Tlie leaders of the Maui Prohibi
tion League opened up the prohibi
tion campaign on this Island with a
meeting in the Waihee Church Sa
turday evening of last week. The
meeting was well attended and Win.
White or' Qily Bill was the main
speaker supported by a number of
local people, Ixith men and women,
who also spoke for the cause.
Among those who came to scoff
was the president of the local anti
prohibition club, who was so much
under the influence of liquor that
he was-overcome and tumbled in a
heap on tho floor. White took ad
vantage of the incident to illustrate
his remarks, and to point a moral
and adorn a tale, declaiming An
tony like over the evil influences of
tho drink enemy until two of the
friends of the victim lifted him up
on their shoulders and carried him
out of tho meeting, a sure enough
exhibit of the evils resulting from
tho abuse of liquor.
Sunday following tho campaign
ers addressed prohibition meetings
in Waichu and Waikapu, which
were pretty well attended by lioth
sexes.
Mommy morning in company
with Mr. John Kalino, White left
for Ulupalakua, and tho two cam
paigners intend to cover the whole
of the Makawao district before re
turning to wauuku, where it is
planned to hold a big meeting on
Market street in tho heart of the
booze stronghold this evening.
