which members receive special dis
count. Other associations have living
rooms only for young men. In the

/ for 200 living-roOms. This is one OF
/ the model associations in the country
and this step may be taken as a wise

/ Now we wish to suggest as one OF the
next forward steps for our association
to take the building OF a boarding home
for young men. What could be more

this way giving young men pleasant

would supplement our limited accom-

BASE BALL FOR CHARITY.
Hogan's MInstrels and the Stars
Meet on the Diamond Today.
STARS POSITIONS MINsTRELs

The above teams will alternate on
the baseball diamond today at the old
baseball grounds in Makiki. Hogan's
minstrel nine declare they have "a
sure thing" and can wipe up de dia-
mond with dat Star team" The Stars,
while not effusive over the probable
results of the game, have just as clear
an idea that Hogan's Darktown ball
twirlers will meet their Waterloo.
At all events both teams will be on
their mettle and a good game is assur-
ed for those who have so literally
bought W. the tickets. The minstrel
band will enliven matters. and this,
with the darky's natural aptitude for
creatir fun as he steals bases. will
keep the crowd in the best of humor.
r, game will be called at 2:3O p.
m. and chairs loaned by the courtesy OF
| the Porter Furniture Co. will be es-
pecially reserved for ladies. The grand
stand has been removed and the stern
err sex will have to stand.
