Oahu and Fifth Cavalry Teams
Will Open the Polo
Season.
This is the day of the first polo
match of the season. The Oahu polo
club members will journey to Leilehua i
and at 2 o 'clock will try conclusions i
with the officers of the Fifth Cavalry.
The team selected to uphold the honor
of Hawaii is Dr. Baldwin, number one;
George Denison, number two; Walter
Dillingham, number three and J. P.
Fleming, number four. Dr. Irwin will
be there as sub in case he is needed.
The Fifth Cavalry team will be
Lieutenant Hanson, number one; Lieu
tenant Quekemeyer, two or four; Lieu
tenant Barnard, four or two, and Lieu
tenant Sheridan, number three.
The adapted American rules will be
followed. By these rules there is no
off-side play and number one may wor
ry number four .'or wait for a long
pass as near to the other goal as he
likes. There will be four periods of
7 1-2 minutes actual play. This means
that time will be taken out between
whistles. Goals, out'of bounds, fouls,
free hits and any other hiatus in the
game will be dropped out of the of
ficial game so that each period may
last anywhere from ten to fifteen min
utes. Lieutenant Conner, of the Engineer
Corps has been selected as referee. He
has played much polo on the Coast and
in the East and is well qualified to
hold that position.
Each player will have but two ponies.
This was agreed to on account of the
dearth of broken ponies in the Oahu
club. There is not a single oldtimer
left for the local players. All their
ponies are green and more or le,ss soft
and the Cavalry team is in much the
same fix. So two ponies apiece is all
the elub-wielders will have.
Colors of the Teams.
The Oahu team will wear white.
White breeches, white shirts and white
caps with russet boots. The Cavalry
team will wear khaki breeches, russet
boots, white shirts with the Cavalry
shoulder band of yellow and yellow
caps. The referee, in consistence with
etiquette, will wear ordinary mufti rid
ing togs. .
The field at Leilehua is in great
shape. The officers have given much
detailed attention to the laying out
and fixing up of the ilace where they
hope to hand it to the cits. It has
been rolled and watered and the bumps
leveled while the hollows have been
filled, so that it is as smooth and ideal
a place for the game as one could want
to find between Hurlingham and Smla.
They All Want to Go.
Between eleven o'clock and noon
there will be a great exodus cf autos
from Honolulu. Everybody and his
wife who can beg, borrow or steam a
machine will go out to the polo game.
Fort street was lively yesterday after
noon and the telephones were all busy
with the eiforts of those who wanted
to get a seat in a tonneau."
Some of them did not care whether
they go in the tonneau or not. The
owner of a big touring car was held
up just outside his offiee by one of
those determined goops who is bound
to get there. Here is what passed be
tween them. "Say, Jim, are you going
to Leilehua tomorrow!" "Yes, I'm
going, but my machine is full up."
"Well, have you got room on the floor
of the tonneau for me!" "I'm awf 'lly
sorry old chap, but we are going to
stay all night and the women's bag
gage has to go on the floor." "What
about the hoodf Can't I sit there!"
"Still awf lly sorry, but I am going to
leave the hood off to keep the engiae
cool.' "Well, say, I gotter get to Lei
lehua some way, can't you put me in
the carbureter!"
Good Chance for Cits.
In spite of the green ponies and the
long trip they had yesterday in hack
ing it up to the camp, the local team
may well win the game. The four
men selected to represent Oahu are all
really first-class players. They have
condition, pluck and stamina with them
and, mixing as they are in a peculiarly
military game with men who have lived
on horseback ever since they received
the joyful news of their appointment
to West Point, they, have practised hard
together and it may be that four of
those mere cit. things can hand it to
the experts of the Cavalry.
Whatever the result the game will
be well worth watching. Polo is al
ways worth watching. The highest
courage, the finest horsemanship and
the quickest brain is required to play
this game.
CRICKET AT MAKIKI.
Cricket is surely on the revival all
right. A large aggregation will go to
Maui for the match there. Already a
full team is assured and the good Maui
nese will have to look after their
laurels. .
Here is the bunch that has promised
to go and there are several more who
are fixing it up to get away: McGill,
captain; Rudolpbo Buchly. vice-eaptam
and veil-leader; Morse. Bob Anderson,
Jamie Fiddes, Lamb, Maxwell, H. M.
Ayres. Harry Bailey, Maclean, Gray,
Sinclair and probably Densham.
This afternoon the Honolulu team
will play Bishop & Co. There are two
good teams selected and a keen game
will certainly result.
ST, LOUIS HAS
G00DB0XERS
Wireless From Cruiser Bids
Cohen Hold Curtain
Raisers.
Joe Cohen is vigorously figuring over
the preliminaries to the Cordell-Sulli-van
show on July 3, and has made up
his mind to give only the very best.
He would have settled something be
fore this had it not been for a wire
less from the St. Louis which stated
that, if there was anything doing in
the boxing line on July 3 or 5 they
have some champions that want a
chance.
The St. Louis should be in today and
there will doubtless be something fixed
up before tonight. Joe has one pre
liminary that is practically settled and
that is soldier McCollough of Fort Shat
ter and Wahilani for six rounds.
Soldier McCollough is one of the best
local favorites. He is not a very swell
boxer but he is so jolly well game and
always boxes in such a cleanly manner
that he has made a terrible hit with
the fans here. Whether he meets Wa
hilani or some man from the St. Louis,
his appearance will be the signal for
much applause from a large consign
ment of road-pounders in the gallery.
McCollough has never committed a foul,
he has never quit, even under awful
punishment, he has never raised a roar
over a decision and he has been an
example to other preliminary boxers
here. By .all means put him on again.
Miller, the big man at Fort Shafter
who has been doing so well as a spar
ring partner for Dick Sullivan, may be
put on with " Limey "-Richards who
has been assisting Cordell. Assistants
from the two rival camps, meeting in
the ring, should make a good go but
tneir appearance depends entirely on
what material the visiting cruiser has
to put on.
An Expensive Show.
This is the most expensive show that
Joe Cohen has ever produced here. He
is hanging up a purse of $600 for the
main event, and has litwral- amounts' set
aside for the preliminaries. He is tak
ing long clianees, as his expenses will
be more than $1000 but there is so
much interest being taken in the event,
that chances for a loss are smalL
Marines, Infantry and Cavalry will
all be given a chance in the show as
far as possible. The Navy, of course,
will be well represented, and apart from
the big main event, it looks as though
the affair would be by way of a meet
ing of the services.
They Like Cordell.
Meanwhile Cordell continues to be
the center of attraction. All round
town one hears such remarks as "Gee,
I hate to see Dick licked, but this fel
low Cordell looks awful good to me.
If only Cordell had better sparring
partners, somebody who could wallop
him a few and make him hustle, I'd
hate to be in Dick's place."
But Dick 's friends are there with
the very candid opinion very strongly
affirmed. They do not believe that any
middleweight is going to blow in here
from the' Coast and hand it to Diek.
They say it very loud and clear, they
come and shout in your ear, they stop
you on the sidewalk and they grasp
your coat with feverish hand; he can
not beat our Dick, they say, and wave
their money to the day; they claw your
coat and even scratch which shows
'twill be a mighty match.

Owing to a funny mistake the limit
yachts in the raee tomorrow were given
1.55 handicap instead of 55 mins. The
original of the letter sent out to the
yacht skippers read " and Hawaii
L, 55 mins." The stenographer took
this for Hawaii, 1.55 and hence the
mistake.

IN RIOT TRIAL1
(Continued from PagB One.)
Scoviile positively identified as Jotaro
Mikawa.
Before Seoville was called to the wit
ness stand Lightfoot moved to quash
the indictment of'the thirteen JaDanese
on the ground that the indictment re- i
f erred to "Honolulu in the island of,
Oahu," instead of the City and Coun- j
ty of Honolulu. He insisted that the i
"island of Oahu" was without legal
siaiui. ine motion was denied by
Judge Robinson.
It is the intention of prosecution and
defense to hurry the trial to a speedy j

and it is probable that the proceedings
will be continued this evening.
Day Proceedings. -
An attempt to secure the continuance
of the charges of riot against J. Mika
wa and twelve other Japanese before
Judge Robinson yesterday was marked
with failure, the motions by Attorney
Lightfoot being overruled and a begin
ning made ia the work of securing a
jury.
The first venire was exhausted in
short order and at the noon recess of
the court Judge Robinson ordered the
issuance of three special venires of
seventy-five men in all, returnable at
1 o'clock. The time for tie serving
of the summons was so limited that
only eleven men were presented when
court convened in the afternoon and of
that number only six were qualified to
sit as jurors.
A fourth venire was then authorized
to be issued for fifty talesmen return
able at 7:30 in the evening. Attorney
Lightfoot apparently changing his at
titude when he discovered that it would
be impossible to secure a regular con
tinuance, hoping to obtain a speedy dis
posal of the case, so as to allow him
to appear as the attorney for the Japa
nese connected with the higher wage
agitation both in the departments of
Judge De Bolt and Judge Robinson.
At the morning session of court
Lightfoot repeated his objection to
proceeding with the trial and insisted
ihat the Japanese aecused of being riot
ers would be deprived of the rights
guaranteed to all by the constitution
of the United States. He declared em
phaticallv that the spirit of the pro
ceedings in "forcing" the defendants
to trial was in violation of the existing
treaty between the United States and
Japan.
Kinney Objects.
A statement by Lightfoot that it was
impossible to secure another attorney
who was willing tt enter a ease in
opposition to the interests of the sugar
industry brought forth an objection
from Mr. Kinney of the prosecution,
who'replied that such an allegation was
an insinuation against all the members
of the bar and was not warranted by
any reliable evidence.
Lightfoot then qualified his assertion
by saying that he did not wish to make
insinuations against any member of the
bar, but reiterated that a lawyer could
not be secured to assist in the defense
of tlie Japanese without the payment
of a retaining fee out of all proportion
to the value of the services to be
rendered.
In the eourse of his argument Light
foot said that it was an absolute in
justice to compel the defendants to go
to trial with new counsel, conceding
the possibility that they were able to
secure counsel other than himself.
Lightfoot said that he was familiar
with the statements of each of the
defendants, and that it would take sev
eral days for other counsel to familiar
ize himself with the details of the de
fense. In an effort to expedite proceedings
Mr. Kinney and Lightfoot propounded
a number of questions bearing upon
qualifications, to the jury collectively,
instead of the usual method of examin
ing one man at a time. The jurors
were asked if they were the holders
of any sugar stock or whether their
near relatives were interested financial
ly in the sugar industry of the Terri
tory. "
Judge Robinson said that he did not
see why the holding of stock in the
Oahu Sugar Company, on the premises
of which the alleged riot occurred,
should constitute a disqualification
since the Oahu Sugar Company was
not a complainant in the case and that
the ease at bar did not differ from any
other involving a breach of the peace.
The Stock Question.
The attorneys for the prosecution and
the defense were willing to follow out
the general intent of the agreement
that was used as a basis for the ex
amination of jurors in the trial before
Judge De Bolt. This was, in effect,
that ahysipror who owned stock in a
sugar plantation, or whose near rela
tives owned sugar securities, would be
excused by consent. Judge Robinson
did not seem to think that there was
'any necessity for pursuing such a policy
in the case before him, since the plan
tation could not be directly or indirect
ly concerned in the outeome of the trial.
Mr. Kinney said that he thought the
view taken by the court was correct,
but that in view of the prevailing con
ditions he believed it would be well to
secure a jury whose impartiality could
not be challenged upon any ground. He
admitted that there was no legal reason
why jurors should be excused upon the
grounds mentioned, but added that he
felt that it would contribute to secur
ing an absolutely impartial jury.
The discussion resulted from the call
ing of Admiral Beekley into the jury
box. In response to a question as to
whether he was the owner of any stock
in the Oahu Sugar Company he replied
in the negative, but added that his
"better half" did hold some of the
plantation's securities.
The principle that a juror whose rela
tives hold plantation stoek would be
considered as disqualified was finally
accepted by Judge Robinson and Ad
miral Beekley was excused, apparently
much to his relief.
The special venire of fifty talesmen,
returnable in the evening, was placed
in the hands of Sheriff Jarrett shortly
after 2 o'cloek in the afternoon and
the deputies of the Sheriff's office with
several assistants immediately began
the work of locating the new venire
men. The argument on the demurrer filed
by Attorney Lightfoot to the charge

IN A TROPICAL FOREST.
Chief Engineer Burgess of the Hon
duras National Railway, giving advice
to engineers working in the tropics, savs
emphatically, "Don't get lost!" He
adds that a man should no more think
of going into a tropical forest without
a compass than of going alone to sea
without one. Without a compass one
has no way of gf-tting direction. In a
few minutes he is turned round. The
sun can only be seen, if at all, when
directly overhead. There is no moss on
the trees to serve for a guide. Distant
plevations, or mountains, if any exist,
cannot be seen on account of the density
of the forest. 'Even on the treeless
llanos of outh America, where the
mountains are too distant to be seen,
the compass is the only guide. One can
tell the direction of east and west at
sunrise and sunset, but in the middle of
the day the sun is useless as a guide,
because it is almost directly overhead,
and often one may stand in the shadow
of Lis own hat. Youth's Companion.
