is too little known. The compile
ton of the Nicaragua Canal will
add greatly TO their importance
both commercially and politically,
the lines of ocean steamers now
connecting them with the outer
world, as well as those projected,
will make a trip hitler an easy
and pleasant one, while the deep
ening of the entrance to the har-
Dor, the completion of roads to
the volcano and many other points
Of interest, and contemplated in
crease of railroad communication,
will afford facilities to the num-
bers of travellers and tourists, each
year growing larger, that will place
Hawaii among the most desirable
spots on earth to the visitor.
From a commercial standpoint,
it may also be said that the United
States has long been and will con-
tlnue to be the natural market for
our productions, while at the same
time the British-American and
Australasian dominions and colo
MES are eagerly endeavoring to
commercially interest themselves
In our market. In seeking to ex-
tend and improve our trade in the
markets of the United States and
of the world, we should take this
opportunity of showing what our
soil is capable of producing besides
the staple exports of to-day. We
have attractions for the world of
commerce as well as the world of
pleasure. The soil will Weld
abundantly in response to intelli-
gent and careful cultivation of
coffee, fruits, fibres, tubers and the
medicinal barks Of the more distant
lands and chimes, while our val
leys, teeming with tropical luxu-
rance, unfold to the eye views as
marvellous in picturesqueness and
grandeur as those of any part of
the world.
Let US, therefore, ADVERTISE our
selves, our resources, and our pos
sibilities at Chicago next year, in
the firm belief that we are making
a safe and permanent investment
in futures.

THE KIDS AGAIN.
They Take Another Game From
the StalWarts.

The result of Saturdays game
between the Honolulus and the
youthful Crescents was a big sur
prise, ending as it did, with
another victory for the junior club
Of the League.
Both clubs started run-getting in
the first inning but for the next
three innings no tallies were made
to gladden. the hearts of the
players until the fifth, when the
Honolulus became familiar with
Angus handling of the ball and
commenced to bang it all over the
green lot. They tailed five times
in this inning.
The Crescent boys played along
until the seventh inning, when
they struck batting streak max
ing four runs and tieing the .score,
then the noise commenced on the
part of the admirers of the young
sters, and their stock went away
above par in the next inning, when
they made two runs and took the
game.
The Honolulus had w. Lucas in
the box for seven innings. when he
gave place to Lemon, neither of
whom distinguished himself by
superior pitching.
Chan Wilder behind the bat, E..
Wodehouse at third and the bat
ting of Harry Whitney were the
Honolulu features.
The Crescents played well as a
team. Their several errors were
not very costly and their short
comings were forgiven when they
made the four runs in the
seventh by good hard hitting
that tied the score. Angus
pitched fairly we'll and received
good support from Willis. Lish-
man at third put up his usual
errorless game, and was always
good for a hit of some kind when
his turn came to bat. Willie
Wilder made hit in the seventh
that brought in two men; he also
covered second nicely and made
several difficult stops, he PLAYED
well. The other players covered
their ground with credit to them
selves.
THE SCORE.

nine months endeavoring to carry
out the arrangements in a credit

therefor, but it must not be forgot
