The report of the baseball game be-

Sport Hill reporter, ga. j., is rather I'M

nish one for the return game. This they
will do and they will try to find ball

Alerts did not damage the ball. If they
did not, who did? Let him ask himself
how many flies were hit blythe Dewdrops

EXCURSION AND LUAU.

the next excursion and luau will come
off with the first intention, so that
expectation deferred will not sicken
the patronage. There is no festive

battles were cited in proof of the
theory. Rev. 5, E. Bishop a few
years ago advanced the supposition
that the heavy downpour while Queen
Emma was lying in state might have
been produced by the popular grief
and its audible manifestations over
the national loss. The conservative
and scientific opinion Of the United
States or thiS occasion seems to be
that the production of rain by artiIi-
cial means must depend on there be-
ing enough moisture in the upper
regions to be condensed by the con
cussjon of discharged explosives. Ii
that Is the main essential, then there
should be no more drought Above J

clouds enough for a deluge appear
over the mountains daily, but only to
tantalize thirsty country by being
blown away to sea- If the eXpendi-
ture of few hundred pounds of o.

A limited number of Valuable Seaside
and Country Residence
Sites on the
Peninsula Of Pearl City !

This truly enchanting location for
suburban homes must be seen to be
appreciated lovely grove of alge-
roba trees covers the entire grounds,
streets 80 feet in width ore laid out,
and 6-inch pines are being laid to
conduct water from a l0-inch arte-
sian well which is pronounced by
McCandess Bros. to flow the sweet
est water of all the wells they have
bored on this island. The Railway
Co. have constructed two reservoirs
with u storage capacity of over two
million gallons, and built flume ex-
tending 81 miles into Waiawa Val
ley, which in years of ordinary rain
fall will supply an abundance of
pure water for large population;
to guard against such droughts as
we have experienced during the pre-
sent year, the Company have ordered
Blake Pump with a capacity of
1870, 900 gallons per day, which will
be replaced by one or more of larger
capacity when needed. This pump
now due from the manufacturers will
be placed at once at the arteslan we'll
from which water will be forced into
the reservoirs, when not supplied
from the mountains.
A block containing AN area of five
acres has been reserved for Hotel,
and another beautiful lot of the same
area is also reserved for a Public
Park, which the Company propose
to make one of the most delightful
and attractive resorts to be found
anywhere.
This place has all the charms of
Waikiki, with the addition of an in
land sea seven miles long and four
miles wide, affording boating and
yachting facilities second to none in
the world.
Pearl City is situated about half
way between the extreme eastern
and western points of Pearl Harbor.
The makai end of Pearl City PENN
sua points to the entrance of the
harbor, and is destined some day
(not so remote as some peo-
pie may think) to be the great
commercial emporium of the Pacific.
The Pearl City Branch of the Com
pany's line extends down the centre
of the Peninsula within say 1000
feet of the shore on either side.
Bes~ Intending purchasers are in
vited by the O. r. & l.. Co. to call
at my Office for free tickets and
maps of Pearl City.
The Company will bind themselves
in the deed to carry purchasers,
their families and servants for
term of nine years from date of pur-
chase at cents per mile first class,
and | cent per mile second class.
Those who build on their lots within
II months from date of purchase,
will thereby secure reduction from
the above rate for the whole time
of say 20 percent, making the fare
each way 10 cents first-class, and 10
cents second-class
This rare spot of earth is quite
limited in area, and those who would
secure lot valuable now but des-
tined in the near future to be worth
many times its present value, will be
wise to improve their opportunity.
