frequently In the cause OF watermelons
imam Tor anything else In the world. I
haven't doubt-alfhough Scripture
ooesnt actually say so--that Anarias sold
watermelons. A man with his men,
uacity couldn't have gotten along in his
line OF business tprevaricating) without
having something TO AFFORD full scope for
his powers. and where could he have
round better field than In the water
melon market?
Necessity being the mother of invention.
ana, ny the way, a very prolific parent, I
would suggest that some philanthropis.
invent a self-registering watermelon, with
ripeness indicator and a capacity for
ietting the world know when IL ought TO
be pulled. Even II such a benefaction
had only the word next" In it's voca-
mulary. agriculturists would know when
they heard the sound that that water
melon was anxious TO get OFF the earth
ana suffer for the cause OF humanity.
ana III such ~ watermeion-such a d.
vine blessing rs that above alluded to-
cannot be conceived, | wish some one
would at least invent transparent water
melons. or open-faced fellows. or water
melons which. when found to be unripc,
invariably yielded UP from their unpalata-
Die interiors the price you paid for them.
Inc man who performs such feats as
those which l have suggested viii live in
history. and will be able to command the
entire colored vote of the South. Nay.
more. / myself will stump my precinct

pansion. especially when superinduced by
The internal application Of good, sweet
watermelon flesh. with plenty of juice
and crimson heart. And my cook is
with me on this. United we stand. and
divided we fall, in our love for and loyal
ty TO the good, self-respecting water
melon--the watermelon one dreams about
and longs for, but never lives to bite.

So will the Honolulu and New

FIRST GAME OF A SERIES
How They VIII Take to the Diamond.
Umpires-Agreeme
Quick Business Game.

The series of five base ball games
between the "Wela IA Hao," or old
Regiment, team and the first nine OF
the third battalion, First New York.
will begin at $3.50 this afternoon on
the Makiki grounds. Yellow and white
will be the colors OF the town team,
making a very pretty uniform, indeed.
George Angus has been selected as
umpire for the towns. The New York
ers will put a man behind the bat.
Percy Lishman has retired from the
office of captain of the towns and may
not play in the team at all. Pressure
of business is the reason. Al. Moore
has been elected captain in his stead.
Toyo Jackson and Bonnie Lemon will
pitch The former has improved great
ly and now throws a wicked curve
that will be hard TO find this afternoon.
George Angus is a most competent
umpire, and is popular with both the
players and the public.
Games will be played with rush.
No long waits will be allowed. In case
of disputes regarding plays only the
captains of teams will be allowed to
lick the umpire. The town boys are
showing up in much better shape than
it was thought possible with so few
days practice. There is earnestness in
their work which will undoubtedly

teams to be entered:
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1898-10-08
New Line Steamers.

Francisco is important concerning the
new Polynesia Steamship line. This
is the enterprise IN which the Cramps
are to be heavily interested, as new
boats for the service are to come from
their yards. One line in this ocean
viii be from San Francisco to Manila
via Honolulu. IL is now proposed to
begin operations at once. The San
Francisco advice is that three ships
known here as transports will appear
as liners for the Polynesia company.
These are the Ohio. Pennsylvania and
Indiana. Each ship has an ice ma
chine and cold storage and could
handle large quantities of beef or other
perishable goods.
