BASEBALL MAKING
is A WORK OF SKILL
Millions Used Each Year in
Putting Out the Ball.
Great Care Exercised to Produce a Per
feet Sphere-Thirty Minutes to
Make Article.

The production of baseball is an op-
GRAFTON almost as unknown to the pub
lie as its use is familiar. Yet nearly
100000 balls year. or about 10000 Il
day. are manufactured by one Pennsyl-
vania factory. alone. and for great
many Of these s1.50 apiece is paid. A
remarkable amount of skill and fine
workmanship is needed to turn out a
ball that will stand, even for a short
time. the powerful batting OF the big
players or will come UP to the require
ments for league work. The various
baseball are briefly as follows:
1t is first solid ball of Para rubber
just an inch through. The ball is placed
in machine by a boy tender and is
automatically wound with stfo.e, rr-:-c
wooden yarn. The winding is done with
an evcnness that no human fingers could
equal. and the thick, blue mixed wool
forms a perfectly uniform covering for
the core.
An Inch Thick.
This layer is made just All inch thick.
When the right amount of yarn has
been wound on 1t the machine stops
automatically, the ball. now two inches
thick, is removed and another core set
The partly finished balls are next dip
ped. That is, they are dropped into 4
transparent fluid called plastic compo-
stion." which is really kind Of ce
ment. This fluid is very adhesive. and
when it enters the wool covering there
Is a solidiication that prevents the ball
from ever being knocked out of shape.
So certain is this, in fact. that the
company guarantees to replace all balls
that are so injured.
The balls are next wound again-this
time with a certain definite thickness of
threc-ply white yarn. This is covered
with three-ply blue until it has reach
cd the requisite size of nine inches in
circumference. All OF these winding pro-
cesses have been automatic. and the
balls appear of exactly the same size
and weight. But no chances are taken.
and each is weighed several tires during
the inal winding, so that accuracy may
be assured

No Law in Hawaii.

Since that time there has been no law
in Hawaii limiting the use of the drug
or restricting its sale, and nearly as
great a quantity is imported here as in
the entire United States A consider
able amount of opium IS still shipped to
San Francisco and then reshipped TO
Hawaii, though for what reason is not
known.
Its use here by opium fiends is now
open. II is not even confined TO 'dens. ."
Opium pipes are sold openly at many of
the Chinese and Japanese stores. and at
some of the American business places,
while the opium itself is sold in cans
and in any quantity desired at scores OF
places throughout the Territory. The
odor Of the pipe of the opium dreamer
can be plainly distinguished on almost
any of the principal business streets of
the city. and he is left unmolested in
the joys of his dreams.

Smuggling Still Common.


There are very few Chinese in the
Territory who do not have some of the
drug somewhere about their premises,
even though the cost is more than it is
supposed the average Hawaiian Chinese
can afford. 1t is darkly rumored that
some of the most prominent men in the
community obtained their wealth by
smuggling opium into the country in
former days, and there are any number
of influential Chinese mentioned in the
same category.
The charges lodged at the State De-
partment against Consul Yang Wei Pin.
allege that he indirectly connived with
others in smuggling some 10000 tins
into the country. Collector of Customs
f. r. Stackable is now Investigating the
matter. The charge is the outgrowth
OF a fight between the consul and the
Bow Wongs, and nothing can be learned
of its truth or fals!ty, though number
of prominent Chinese merchants have
testified against the consul. They claim
the consular frank was used to eyadc
the custom duty. The tins came 10 Hon
olulu consigned to an attache OF the con-
sular Office. and were taken direct TO the
consul's house from the wharf accord
ing 10 the report OF the BOW NOnRS.
War Against Evil
Members OF the Anti-Saloon League
may take up the task of ridding Hawaii
from the opium evil. They intend 20
move along the line of the Original
package" decisions in Kansas and Iowa,
by which prohibition was enforced in
these States a few years ago. If the
law against the sale of opium could he
enforced, so as TO limit its holdings
only in the original package it would
do away with the extensive use of the
drug IN these islands. The decision
knocking OUT the opium law was based
upon the violation of the interstate
commerce act and this the temperance
people claim applies only to the original
package and the sale of small quanti-
ties should not be allowed II this could
be done it would do away with much of
the evil in Hawaii. for the drug is now
sold in very small quantities, so that

able to use 1t.
