Today.

Inc local cricket season OpeItSu DIi-
liantly yesterday afternoon with a
match at Makiki between town
eleven and the team of H. B. M. 5.
Warspite.
A large number of spectators was
present, including many ladies' Dur
ing the afternoon light refreshments
were dispensed. A large marquee erect
ed on the ground and decorated with
Hawaiian and British flags afforded a
grateful shade. The band of the War
spite rendered a musical program in
good style and contributed in no small
measure to the, success of the after
noon.
The visitors, who possess a strong
team, went in first and compiled 14S
for eight wickets, thanks to the eX-
celIent contributions of Lieutenant LIE
.Faner 40, and Lieutenant Glennie, IS not
out. With the score standing at 14S
they declared their innings closed.
With barely forty-five minutes left
to play, Honolulu went to bat but Jared
disastrously, having when stumps were
drawn lost six wickets for only 20 runs.
The match was thus left drawn, great
ly in favor of the visitors. Had they
closed their innings sooner they would
probably have won. The bowling of
Harvey for the home team and Wood
ward for the ship was excellent, as was
the fielding of the Honolulans. The
sailors did not do SO well in the field
as with the bat and ball and missed
numerous chances of dismissing their
opponents.
! Underwood and Woodward went to
! the wicketS first and the former was
soon caught at point by Hatfield with
the score at nine. With four more
runs added, Shewell was clean bowled
by Harvey. Play was very slow and
runs came at the rate of five every
fifteen minutes.
| Woodward and Benbow soon after
succumbed to Harvey and the score
stood four wickets for q runs
Things looked good for Honolulu
Then LIE Faner and Knox made q
stand and added 80 before the latter
was retired. Glennie partnered LIE
Fanu and the two practically saved
their side from defeat, the score being
raised to 80 for six wickets before LIE
Faner got his walking papers.
The 43 runs were obtained by sound
cricket, only married by one hare
chance.
Glennie and Wilson made another
stand and when the innings was declar
ed closed were still undisposed of
Glennie's 4S was creditable effort ant
included several threes.
With only a draw in sight, Piianiais
and Penney opened for the city, bu
the former was soon bowled by Wood
ward. Five other wickets fell in rapit
succession and then time gave the home
team the benefit of draw.
The Honolulu club tried no less thar
eight bowlers, only one of whom found
the mark with any degree of accuracy
R. Anderson especially proved terribly
expensive.
Penny and Hatfield bowled well bu
experienced hard luck in finding tn,
j wickets. Piianiaia especially shone IL
the field, his work at times being bril-
liant
The Warspite team is fortunate il
that it seems to be not blessed with &
tail. They deserved to have won
