ATHLETIC FIELD SPORTS.


lncre was great gathering AZ tuc
Hawaiian Baseball Associations
ground on Tuesday afternoon to see
the first field sports ever held by the
Honolulu Athletic Association. All
parts of the grand stand were filled,
with lots of youngsters hanging over
the rim. The reserved division for
"ladles and their escorts" contained
many of the friendly faces that
usually beam on baseball games,
buds and blossoms of society, and
dignitaries Of good Queen Liliuoka-
lani's domlnions. The carriage space
was crowded with hacks and family
carriages.
1t was remarked as the first sum-
mer day of the season, and the con-
ductors of the sports, the competi-
tors and the reporters sweating their
precious energies away in The broiling
arena did not belle the remark. Yet
nobody was bold enough to enquire
of his neighbor, "Is this hot enough
for you?" There were on the ground
50 many weapons of offense and de
Tense, in the shape of athletic i'm
plements, as to appal anyone tempted
to institute an inquisitiOn of that in
hammatory nature. Those exposed
to the suns rays soon got used
thereto, aided by an occasional cloud
screen. All the events were warmly
contested independently of the
weather. The management who are
personally detailed below have the
satisfaction Of having given the pub
lie a most successful afternoons out
