THE BALL GAME SATURDAY
The UnknOwns Defeat the Myr-
tles-A Successful Umpire.

The ball game Saturday after
noon between the Myrtles and the
Unknowns was closely-contested
and well played match, the score
of 5 to 2 in favor of the Unknowns
showing result a long way ahead
of the average amateur game.
When the seventh inning was
called the score stood 2 and 2,
where it was kept throughout the
inning. During the eighth inning
first baseman Harris, of the I'M
knowns, did some hot work on
first, stopping everything in reach,
and to his superior play the IN
knowns owe the three runs added
to their score during the inning,
and the victory over the opposing
team. which played well and con-
test, notify every run made by
their opponents.
J. L. Brown, of the Adams, UNI
pred the game in a satisfactory
manner to all concerned, which, in
the average ball game, is greater
feat than playing any position.

Goods Damaged in Hackfeld's
Warehouse-The Tracks
Cleared for the
Palace Cars.
tFrom Mondays Daily.)

krIOul hOnuaS Ddig.J
The heavy rainfall during the
past thirty-six hours has done
much good in the city, to say moth
ing of the benefits resulting from
an agricultural standpoint. The
streets, instead of being much dam.
aged, have been improved by rea-
son of the thorough cleaning they
have received, and this morning,
instead of the usual mud and slush
generally encountered after a rain
storm, the streets present clean
and neat appearance.
The greatest damage heard of so
far as direct result of the storm
by H. Hackfeld & Co., whose ware
house was flooded and had to be
pumped out yesterday morning.
The yard upon which the ware
house faces is somewhat lower than
the street, and the water ran into
this through several driveways
until it filled the yard to Il
level with the warehouse door,
whence it found its way into the
warehouse which is well filled with
general merchandise.
1t was at first thought that the
damage would be quite heavy, but
on examination after the water
had been pumped out, it was found
that the damage was very light,
amounting in all to less than 800.
Kapiolani street is in a bad con-
dition, as the water in running
down the hill cut it up badly, and
at the junction of Kapiolani and
Beretania streets considerable sand
has been piled up, and yesterday
morning a gang of laborers we're
put to work to clear the track for
Paine's palace cars before they
could proceed on the uneven tenor of
their way.
Up on Emma street, where sew
eral lots have been left below the
level of>the street owing to the new
grade, the sidewalk has caved in,
throwing the fences down into the
lots in several places.
The ditch along Punchbowl
street gave way yesterday, and the
overflow carried considerable debris
into School street.
Taken altogether the storm did
no very serious damage to grades
and streets, but it will take con-
siderable work to remove the mass
of sand and general riff-raff de-
posted in the streets by the water.
During the storm last night one
of the electric light wires on Young
street came in contact with one
of the telephone poles, which was
burned off near the top, in very
short order. Some little damage
was done to telephone lines, but
not enough to amount to much.

state convention of Iowa, was born in
Arcade, Wyoming county, N. Y, in
1854. He graduated from the Iowa state
university and adopted the legal profess

in 1884 was elected to the office of secre-

Upon the expiration of his third term of
Office he accepted the presidency of the
Royal Union Mutual Life Insurance
company, and has since devoted himself
exclusively to the business of that cor

it, he could not afford it, having family

Distinguished Visitors From All

NoLCANO HOUSE, kllauea, Ha-
wall, Nov. 12.-Most people, will 1
think, be glad to hear that the vol
cano is in a state of unusual activ-
ity. 1t has, within the last two
weeks, overflowed its banks, and
again dropped to a depth of forty
feet, and is now constantly rising
or falling with numerous fountains
playing.
This overflow is said to have
been a very grand sight. The mol
ten lava came surging across the
foor,li u yeritable sea of fire and
broke upon the outer wall, like the
waves of the ocean.
Upon my arrival, Nov. 7th, this
flow was cold, so that Que could
walk over it, aud the lake bad
dropped down thirty or forty feet,
but it had evidently reached its
turning point and was now rising
rapidly again, There were a few
fountains playing, but the Madam
was evidently in bad humor and
very charry of her favors. How
ever, on the 18th she gave another
most gorgeous display of her pow
ers. On this occasion the entire
lake was in commotion, and seven
or eight great fountains were play
ing at the same time. After these
had subsidized, two more started
about one hundred feet apart, they
gradually grew larger and larger
until they formed one vast foun-
tain of liquid fire. At this time
there were numerous small foun-
tains, and the whole mass made a
picture of beauty of indiscribable
grandeur.
The brilliant light from this
ocean of fire was reflected on the
sky above, and the force and shock
of this mighty surgipg mass shook
the volcano to its very foundations,
causing no small CONSERVATION to
the fair visitors.
But the volcano is not the only
attraction here. There is the pleas
ure of meeting so many charming
people, people fresh from those
great centers of learning, and from
the great world of fashion, culture
and refinement.
There were on this occasion a
number of German scientists, sew
eral English gentlemen, and the
!" Kennedy party" or a company
of thirty persons from HiIo. Be-
sides these, the scenery to the vol
eanO cannot be surpassed. Then
there is the climate, which nothing
can approach, and appetites which
can satisfy.
Again there is the new volcano
house, with all its conveniences,
and the old volcano house with
its picturesqueness and rus
ITCHY, its broad, open fireplace
and its solid comfort; and lastly,
there is Peter Lee, the host, who
will do all he possibly can for your

can road, the last few miles of

This road will, when
finished, be one of the finest in the
world. The whole trip, from Homo
lulu to the volcano, can now be
made with ease and comfort COM
pared to former times.

THE FIRE SUNDAY MORN
ING.
1t Was Caused by the Wettina of
Lime in Warehouse.

The fire alarm at 3 AS Sunday
morning was for small blaze in
the warehouse at the rear Of the
Lucas planning mill. Some lime was
stored in the warehouse, one end of
which had been raised day or two
previous, and when the heavy rain
fall occurred Saturday night the
water falling into the warehouse
ran to the further end where the
the lime was piled, which, on be-
coming wet, ignited and caused
small fire. The damage resulting
was nominal, as the fire was dis
covered soon after it started, and
the fire department responding
promptly nearly all loss was
averted.

THE PAINTED Fosr Though called
the painted post, it had no paint or
marks upon it and, lookedlike a simple
piece of weather beaten oak. It stood
ON the bank of the CONNECTION river by
the side of the trail to Tioga point.
There was at that time an important
village of Seneca Indians near the juno
ton of the CONNECTION, Canisteo and Tioga
rivers, which form the Chemung, and
some Of them had been among those de
feated by Sullivan at Newtown in 1779.
The Seneca chief Cornplanter many
years afterward said the post was erected
to mark the grave of a great chief who
had been wounded m that battle and who
died on the retreat up the CONNECTION,
and that it got its name from having
been stained with strawberry juice, but
Cornplanter would not give the name or
tribe Of this great chief 4 neighbor-
hood legend s,iys that it was Captain
ROLAND Mohtour, half breed, but he is
known to have been alive after the post
was erected.
In the beginning of the present cen
fury the post was dug up and carried off
by curiosity hunters. 1t was afterward
returned, but in the meantime the set
tiers had erected new one. This lasted
90 years or more, but was gradually
Clipped to pieces by relic seekers and
had to be replaced by the present post,
which stands q few rods from the site Of
the original at the southeast corner of
the crossroads of the village. 1t is
about is feet high, octagonal in form, is
painted red and has the figure of an
Indian cut out of sheet iron ON the top.
1t is soon to be superseded by stone
monument and an Indian in bronze.
