The Reds did it. The Blues did not
even how their C0l0rs' though they
made several desperate efforts. The
game belonged to the Reds from the
very start. The reason why will ap
pear later on in the story of the game
There was a crowd of some 500 out
to see the charity Rubgy football game
on the Makiki baseball grounds Satur-
day afternoon, about half of these be
ing in Carriages around the gridiron
The sympathies of the various specta-
tors were expressed by the flowers they
wore.
The day was a fine one for the, came

The following judges were chosen to
act during the game: Dr. H. V. Mur-
ray and Viggo Jasobsen, touch judges;
H. Herbert, referee. Although it was
decided in the beginning that the two
halves would be of 35 minutes duration,
it was found when the first half was
about over, that the boys could not
stand so much.

The Reds captained by Rev. J. F.
Lane took the town goal, and the Blues
captained by A. St. M. Mackintosh, the
Waikiki. The referee's whistle blew
and the ball was kicked off by Hamil
ton of the Blues. The kick was a good
one, but the Reds had their eye on the
jball. Prince Cupid took it and made a
'ffood adcance. It was then passed cn to
Willis who made another ga?n. Then
Mackintosh made a run for the Blues,
but it was short lived. Stanley fell on
the ball but it was not in the place it
hau been only a second before.
It was at this time that the playing
of Captain Lane of the Reds began to
show up. He caught the ball from Wil
lis and made a fine run, then he caught
the ball from Prince Cupid and dodged
through a number of his opponents, as
if they had not been there at all. From
the start he showed himself to be the
best player on the field, although Wil
lis and Prince Cupid were not very far
beh lid him.
Hamilton had a fall and then came a
safet3' touch by the Reds. The usual
25 yards were taken. A. Long was
soon behind the goal with the ball.
Lane kicked goal easily and the score
siood 5 points for the Reds.
Hamilton kicked off again for the
Blues and the game playing was gone
through with again. The scrimmages
were numerous. In five minutes from
the first touch down, Captain Lane took
the ball from a scrimmage and carried
it back of the goal. He then kicked
goal again. Score, 10 points for the
Reds.
Hamilton again applied his foot to
the pigskin. It .sped along as everyone J
expected
It appeared as if the Blues
would surely make a touch down, as
the ball was far down in the territory
of the Reds when Singer made a fine
kick and saved the Reds from having
anything scored up against them. That
was reall the only time the Blues got
near to the goal.
An intermission of 10 minutes en-
sued," during which the band played
seme lively airs, and the boys went into
he training rooms to repair their cos
tumes.
The Reds kicked off in the beginning-
of the scond half. The bovs on
,this side showed their supremacy. They
rushed the ball down the field and had
no trouble whatever in getting the ball
out of a scrimmage. Lane, Willis and
Prince Cupid were all the time running
with the ball, while Prince David, Sin
ger and others, did a lot of the heavy
pusaing work, which counted for much
Lane then made two touch downs in
very quick succession, which piled the
score up to 20 for the Reds.
The Blues had by no means given up
the game, and they played with a great
deal of stubbornness. Soper, Woods,
Hamilton, Catton and Johnson, made
very good attempts, but the backs on
the other side were too heavy.
Willis picked the ball out of a scrim
mage and made another touch down for
the Reds. This kind of thing was get
ting to be a little monotonous. Lane
kicked goal again and the score stood
25 to 0, in favor of the Reds.
Johnson kicked off for the Blues.
Prince Cupid made a fine run to within
about three yards from the goal line,
and in anther attempt, carried the ball
behind the iine. Singer tried for coal.
but failed. The score then stood 2S to 0
in favor of the Reds.
It is rumored that another game will
soon be played as the Blues are not yet
satisfied. However, it is a foregone
conclusion that unless they increase the
strength of their backs they will not be
able to do any better than they did on
Saturday. They had a strong rush
ine, but as already stated, the other
part of the team was weak.
The boys are to be congratulated on
the success they made of the affair and
the money the' succeeded in making
or sweet charity's sake.
AT CENTRAL UNION.
Palm Sunday Sermons and Extra
Music.
Two seasonable sermons were given
by Rev. D. P. Birnie at Central Union
Church yesterday. The pulpit was or
namented with living palms. In the
morning" the subject was "Jesus amid
the palm brushes" -and in the evening
"Jesus in th ? temple the place of so-
cial service.' There was a choir of 15
voices with Mrs. Woodward as firt
soprano, . ne musical number was an
organ solo by Professor Ingalls, with
violin oblig ito by Professor Yarndley.
The sermoi. ;i the evening was a very
strong one. There was reference to the
race question in the suggestion that it
was settled entirely in the schools in
the United States and largely would be
solved in the same place here. Rev.
Mr. Birnie also urged that business and
religion should go hand in hand instead
of being distinctly set apart.
There will be Easter week services at
Central Union on Wednesday, Thurs
day and Friday evenings. All are in
vited to attend these meetings.

For Improvement.
A petition signed by people living in
the vicinty of the home of Miss Lucy
Peabody, off Vineyard street and near
Nuuanu stream, is now going the
rounds. It prays the Government to
take immediate precautions to prevent
another incident of the same nature as
that of April 24th, by raising the street
along the Waikiki bank of the Nuuanu
stream and making such other im
provements as the rushing water of the
day mentioned demonstrated as neces
sary. On Electricity.
At the next meeting of the Young
Men's? Research Club, addresses on
"Electricity" will be made by John
Cassidy, superintendent of the Mutual
Telephone Company and Steams Buck, j

P. and Mrs. Birnie leave for the United
States in August, the meetings of tne

NEW STREAM BEDS MADE
Shores
Marked With Wreckage.
Kahuku Plantation Hit Hard.
Roads-Boulders-Repair Plans.
W. E. Rowell, Superintendent of
ublic Works, arrived in town yester
day afternoon, rather bedraggled and
entire! y worn out, having made a tour
of the Island on horseback. He left
the city for Koolau on Saturday morn
ing. Over the Pali he was joined by
Wm. Henry, a prominent Road Super
visor. Later Mr. Weight of Kahuku
plantation made the- party a trio to
Waimea.
The first inspection of a big piliki
was at Kahana, where a large bridge
had ben carried away. The abutments
are not beyond repair. Most of the
I planking can be used again, but nearly
all of the heavy timbers were either
I carried away out to sea or badly br-ck-
en up. 'Men are already working on
the foundations and in a counie of
weeks
the bridge will be
all right
again. Near Kahana the flood cut" a
trench 100 feet in width. This will be
filled for a roadway and provided with
a culvert.

At Punaluu two bridges are gone.
most of the material is saved.
Here is another itrench 100 feet wide
cut by the rushing waters and must be
spanned a bridge.
At Hauula the bridge remained ard
another bridge near Hauula was able to
stand all pressure.
At Laie the 40-foot bridge is gone
and tne stream which it spanned is
widened 10 feet. There will be requir
ed a new bridge 60 feet long. On the
beach near Laie, Mr. Rowell noticed
hundreds of dead eels. It is his belief
that they were killed by the great
qu;lntity of muddy water which filled
the! lagoon
At Laiewai the 00-foot bridge is gone,
butlthe abutments are not hurt. The
wreckage of this bridge struck and car
ried away the Kahuku plantation rail-
way bridge which Mr. Weight is nowjollWLt l" rtL "JC I1,JKtJ 011 oaiuraay

Mr. Rowell reports very heavy dam- Jbullseye company was forced to take a
age to the cane and fields of Kahuku vacation. There were 21 entries for
plantation.. Great quantities of bould- var!oua evonta on Saturday. nf the 2i
ers were carried down from the hubs! .
in the cane fields and there can be no , men footing, 10 made over 40. Of the
irrigation till new furrows have been j19. five made 45 or better. They were:
made. In, some places large areas of A. C. Wall, 47; Captain Dodg, 46; J. I,.
cane have been leveled. There may McLean, 45; A. B. Wrod, 45; W. K.
be seen in the road dozens of cords of Wall 45 Mr Wood ma(le h5a recor(5
wood, much of it washed clear over n,rn , , . - ,
the cane fields during the h,Vh -tPr. Seveial (laS a& before leav the
. CD
An enormous amount of new field work
wil be required on a great part of the
plantation.
The Waimea br id ere was 450 fppit lone:
wfth many thousands of feet of timber
arid several tens of metal In it. Not i
a Vestige of this material is to be seen.
"It: has gone," Mr. Rowell says, "to
Kauai, or somewhere else." It was all
taken out to sea with force that can
scarcely be imagined. One of the foun
dations remains. The other is missing
entirely.
Mr. Rowell crossed the stream in a
canoe and tad a. native boy take his
horse away back mauka to ford the
stream. The very largest trees were
brought down from the hills and the
natives say the trees came along end
over end like circus performers turning
handsprings. The neat little coffee
plantation that Andrew Cox of Waia
lua had in a bit of a natural park there
s wiped away and the grove is cover
ed with heavy bowlders. Two houses
built upon sand" were torn down and
the lumber carried away by natives
who saw that the cottages would surely
go in a short time. On the hillsides
between Kahuku and Waimea there
a re evidences of considerable land
slides. On the fiats everywhere are
fields of bowlders. Some of the stones
weigh half a ton and more. From
Waimea to Waialua, there is another
long field of bowlders.
From Koolauloa to Waimea wherever
the road had crossed a dry gulch the
road is no more. It has a simply b-en
obliterated.
At Waialua two streams now enter
the h?rbor instead of cne and it will
be necessary to span both with bridges.
Between the mouths of the streams
there was made during the flood a
landspit that has made a shallow basin
of the former deep water anchorage
for steamers and schooners. The reef
all about the harbor is covered with
trees. There had been over the origin
al Waialua stream a foot bridge 120
feet long. There had been handed in
a requisition fcr money to make this
a bridge for teams. The foot bridge
was carried away in sections. One
part was stopped 300 feet from its pro
per place and the other half was car
ried to the sea. Nearly ail or the ma
terial has been saved.
At Opeulu two C0-foot bridges are
gone, but the abutments stand and
about ail the materia! can be used
again.
From the br'uige near llalstead's
mi one abutment was all but taken
away, but the bridge has been made
safe and is in use.
The "Long Bridge" in the direction
of Mokuleia from Halstead's was late
ly repaired and held together in good
style. The wooden piles were a few
months ago replaced by stone abut
ments. On to town from Mokuleia, the
bridges are all intact and the road is
not bad. At Waiawa the water went
over the bridge.
Mr. Rowell will try today to make
figures on the damage. He cou'.d not
undertake last evening to say what the
necessary repair work would cost, but
expressed the opinion that it would be
required to make a special appropria
tion. Traffic can be well on again all
around the Island in a few weeks ex
cepting for the Waimea bridge. Here
there must be great care and a heavy
expenditure. It is the plan of Mr. Ro
well to go we'll back from the sea with
the new bridge. He would have two
long spans with very large openings.
The loss of life by the flood at Wai
mea has already been recorded. Mr.
Rowell says that at many points the
appearance of ruin and desolation is
very striking. The Road Board men
and Government officials all along the
route have been active in relieving
such distress as there might be and
in assisting all those wishing to travel
or move belongings.
Mr. Rowell was attracted to a cut
near Waimea and has .brought back
with him specimens of what is almost
lignite. He saw the vein or deiosit
exposed from beneath about ten feet
of heavy and solid coral sand. This ia
young coral and will interest a good
many of the people who study the for
mation of the Island. Mr. Rowell is
firmly of the belief that the wood from
which this lignite is developed was on
land that was sunk or submerged by
volcanic or some other action.
U of the fiood around the Island
was one week ago yesterday between
9:30 and 10 o'clock. On the Thursday
of the deluge in Honolulu there were
not extraordinary rains between Koo
lau and Waialua.
