The Famous Star Team
is in Field Again.
Result of thu M Getting of Players
Manager and Captain-Pre iIni-
nary Game May "a

y base ball season for Honolulu is
assured. The lights of the diamond
met last evening at the Hawaiian hotel
and declared that this year should not
be a repetition of the last one. The
meeting was conducted in a business
like manner, and the last doubt that
the fans would not have a chance to
let loose some of their pent-up enthus-
iasm has vanished.
Jack" Winter, one of the parents
of local base ball and an authority on
the sport, was elected chairman of the
gathering. Lionel Hart was appointed
secretary The first business was the
formal disarmament of the Wela IA
Hao team.
1t was then voted that the old Stars
be reorganized. This was unanimous
ly carried. The enthusiasm that was
then shown indicated that this move
will put base ball on a sound footing.
The history of the Stars is one of
clean, manly and gilt-edged bal! and
their temperance on the diamond
will be approved by all lovers of the
game.
The manager was next selected. OW-
ing to his long Identification with base
DdlI anu WIFI CAe OIu SldiS - w. Sd4 =
ter, Jr., was unanimously elected. He
was also delegated temporary captain.
the final choice to be made upon the
organization of the team.
Garnet and white, the. colOrs which
have always been favOrites in the local
base ball world, were chosen as the
colors of the team. Uniforms will be
procured as soon as possible. Cuba, y
the famous dog of Lionel Hart, was
selected as the mascot of the team.
AS stated before in the Advertiser
the league will be composed of three
teams, the Stars, Battery [ and Kane
hameha. Manager Carter and Duke
MacNichOl were delegated to confer
with the other teams. They will meet
today and decide upon the schedule.
Owing to the deficit which has al
ways heretofore existed at the end OF
the season and which has been borne
by the players, a new plan is proposed.
1t is suggested that fifty per cent of
the receipts go to the association, and
that of the remaining fifty, twenty five
per cent go to the winning team, fiji
teen to the losing and ten to the
league. If there be any surplus to the
credit of the league at the end of the
season it shall go to the association.
A preliminary game will be played
on May oath. This will be simply in
the nature of a try-out. 1t will not be
one of the series. The opposing teams
will be the Stars and Battery |. 1t is
expected that the regular schedule will
open Saturday, May 9th.

ANNAPOLIS COURSE.

AS a result Of the enactment of the
Personnel bill a reorganization Of the
Academic course at the Naval Acade-
my, so far as steam engineering is con-
cerned, becomes necessary after the
close of the present term in June. For
several years a number of Cadets at
the end of their third year have been
selected for the Engineer course,
and, during their last year at the
Academy, Specially instructed in bran
ches of steam engineering. All Cadets
hereafter will receive the same educa-
ton, and the engineering course be so
arranged that graduates will be given
equally as thorough a course as that
heretofore provided for Cadets of the
Engineer Division This years
final graduating class will find nearly
three vacancies existing in the line of
the Navy for every man who passes
the examinations. AT the present rate
graduates are commissioned it will be
impossible to keep up with the vacan-
cies unless Congress authorizes an in
creased number of Cadet appoint
ments annually to Annapolis.

BASE BALL OF '99 Pic. TEAM WINS
One Tennis Champion
ship IS Now Settled.
Honors Go to Miss Hoffman and
Three Sets Singles.

To Miss Hoffman and c. H w. Nor
ton goes the tennis mixed double
championship of 1899. This was de-
termined yesterday, when they won
three straight sets from Miss Dill
bingham and Geo. Fuller, the Punahou
representatives who had qualified for
the final. To each of the winners will
be presented handsome silver cup.
This was the first final that has been
played so far in the tournament. Con
sequently when the players appeared
on the courts there was loud applause
from the large crowd which had gath
cred. The flag and pennants fiuttered
a welcome, the umpire called play and
the match was on.
For a time il looked as if another
surprise were in store for the spec
tators. The PunahOu team was play
ing fast tennis. The swift serves of
Miss Dillingham; and the all around
playing of Geo. Fuller rapidly placed
three games TO their credit. The
Pacific team soon got down to work,
however, and from that time on there
was no doubt as to the final result.
The playing OF Miss Hoffman was a
revelation 1t IS only fair to say that
she outplayed her partner, who also
put up a good game.
Probably what Will be one of the
most interesting matches of the tour
nament will take place today when
Miss Hart defends her title as cham
piOn against Miss Hoffman.
After exciting rallies yesterday in
which both teams played brilliantly
the first set went to Miss Hoffman
and Mr.. Norton, 6-3.
The next two sets were repetitiOns of
the first. They were much more in
teresting than the score would indi-
cate. Not point was won until it had
been we'll contested Both sets finally
went 20 the winners of the first. 60,
GO.
Congratulations Were Immediately
showered upon the players, winners
and losers alike. The Punahou repre-
sentatives had fought we'll against
what is probably the strongest mixed
double team that has played on local
courts.
This afternoon the lady champion
ship of the Islands will be decided. 1t
will be we'll worth attending for it is
not often that two as able players as
Miss Hoffman and Miss Hart meet on
opposite sides of the net.

OAHU'S MILL.
The New Machinery Started Up
for the Season.

for the Season.
The Oahu mill started runnin G
Thursday and continued throughout
yesterday. Everything is working very
satisfactorily. The first days about
twenty cars of cane were put through.
Progress was necessarily slow, as those
in charge did not wish to put the new
machinery to an over severe test. Oc-
casional stops were made to correct
some small detail, but on the whole
the machinery worked far better than
was expected, considering that it is all
new and that some of the employees are
as yet not familiar with their duties
Yesterdays run was steadier and much
more cane was put through. There
were Z number of visitors present and
all were very much pleased at the good
showing which the mill made.
