The Yachting Season.

Racing is over for the year in the Ha-
waii Yacht Club, but there are many
days of fine cruising weather which
will be taken advantage Of Shaking
parties are to be made up for Pearl
Harbor, the selachians having returned
since the dredger quit operations. Big
turtle and hihimanu are also reappear-
ing. This is the season for the mullet
men recently Melted a school of some
two hundred beauties averaging two
to three pounds weight.
The decision in the La Paloma-
Gladys collision has been given out.
This was decided against La Paloma
by the Regatta Committee of the club
but the final decision was rested in
the hands of L. A. Thurston and F. NJ.
Hatch. In their argument for the
Gladys they take the same standpoint
as the regatta committee Of the club.
The yachts were found on evidence to
be one hundred and fifty yards away
from the turning stake and rules refer
IlLS 10 the turning Oh the stake were
therefore not to be considered. La
Paloma is held to have fouled the
Gladys and disregarded the rule that
states that the overtaking boat, as
long as an overlap is established, must
in all Eases keep clear or the boat being
overtaken."
La Paloma's foul was established be-
fore she actually struck the Gladys at
the moment her bowsprit crossed the
counter of the Gladys which was lead
ing at that moment. The shift of Com
modore Macfarlane's helm which caus-
ed the tearing of the Gladys sail was
held to have been done with the best
intention to avoid trouble and no dam
ages are awarded, both shippers being
held to have done the best they could
under the circumstances.
The point made is an important one
to yachtsmen locally. All overtaking
boats are held responsible as long as
an overlap is established.
Allan Dunn has resigned from the
Craftsmanship of the regatta committee
after two seasons service. George Tur-
ner is now chairman with Frank Hal
stead and Henry Roth as the other
members. They have no more active
work to do this season.

Spalding very busy trying to ride him
off. He is the best available man for
the place, perhaps the best. A. F. Judd,
who played the position with sound and
steady skill last season, is not playing
this year and devotes his time to ref
ereeing and the practical side of the
preparations. Harold Castle has many
opportunities to make an excellent No.
2. He is a good rider, is well mounted
and his light weight keeps his ponies
in good shape through the periods. His
mallet work is good though it will stand
Improvement. He is new TO the posi-
ton and as yet lacks a little aggressive
ness which will come with practice and
fresh confidence in those behind him.
He is practically the goal maker, fed by
No. 3 backed up by No. 4. Dillingham;
is we'll mounted and seems as sure of
his stroke as ever. He is a fearless
rider and his mallet work is sound and
often brilliant He is undoubtedly one
of the best of our island players. Dole
is another tower of strength, sure of
stroke, judicious of his ponies strength,
playing with his head throughout the
game and an adept at getting away
from No. l. He could not be replaced
in his position.
Yesterday afternoon the Oahu four
played at Moanalua against a quartet
consisting of Clarence Cooke, Harry
Cobb, George Dennison and Fred Da-
mon. The first team was entirely too
strong for the others and the score at
the end Of the periods stood thirteen
goals to two. The scratch team made
matters interesting for the first team
at the outset being particularly sue
cessful in breaking up the centering of
the ball. After the big four got to
playing together for a while, however,
their team work was soon able to make
them score at ease. Match tactics
We're employed, all four playing their
positions, Dillingham; passing the ball
to Castle who scored most of the goals.
Later in the game Atkinson played No.
on the other side and made matters
lively for Dole.
The field at Moanalua is in SPLENDID
shape. The freshly mown grass brought
all the players right up on the ball with
the result of good many lofting
strokes which will vanish before longer
practice on a well turfed field. The
sideboards have been put in which
makes the game generally faster. The
match games should be exceedingly
fast on the level and short turf which
may battle the Kauai men a little until
they have had a few days practice.
Mr.. Damon, who has done SO much for
Island polo in providing the Moanalua
ground, which by next season will hard
ly be bettered anywhere, is erecting a
barn on the southeast corner of the
field with stalls for sixteen ponies. This
will be ready by the match with Kauai
and will be used during the games by
the players. There were number of
carriages at the game yesterday.

With the Polo Players.

Public interest is increasing in polo
with the prospects of the inter-island
game between Kauai and Oahu. This
has been arranged in a series of three
matches, best two out of three, to COM
mence on Saturday, November Z, and
to continue on the Wednesday follow
ing and on the next Saturday. The
men from Kauai: Spalding, the two
Rice boys and the younger Malina will
arrive with a string of sixteen ponies
on this day week, putting their ponies
up at the Isenberg stables. They will
practice through the week and get their
ponies into good shape for the game.
The contest is sure to be a close one
The last match, played on Kauai, de-
veloped the best polo that has been seen
in the islands and the same Kauai
quartet will play. Their ponies are per-
haps better than the Oahu ones, the
Rices having lately imported some of
sides having materially changed their
string since the last match.
The Oahu boys will probably play
only three ponies apiece and their
string, with one or two additions is
practically the same as when they last
played Kauai. For Kauai Spalding will
probably play No. 1, Malina 2, Arthur
Rice and his brother 3. For Oahu,
A. F. Judd has selected the following:
r. w. Atkinson, No. 1; Harold Castle.
2; W. F. Dillingham;, 3. and Charlie
Dole, 4.
Oahu is playing its team as it
stands against the strongest scratch
combinations it can bring together
Games are played twice a week, Satur-
days at Moanalua and Wednesday aft
ernoons at Kapiolani Park. The COM
bination should make a good one with
practice. Atkinson plays a thorough
and aggressive No. 1, and will keep

Baseball Today.

There will be two games of baseball
played this afternoon at Kapiolani Park
between teams of the Midwinter
League. The mines are putting up a
very fair article of sport and their eff
forts are attracting the attention of a
good sized crowd who regularly attend
the Sunday games. AS scheduled for
tomorrow the games are as follows:
Aalas, the indicated leaders of the
league, against the Young Stars at
1880 O'Clock, followed by the Kapiolanis
versus the Honolulu Iron Works at 3
o'clock. The Ironworkers have hitherto
failed to annex a game but they are
determined to break their hoodoo this
afternoon

The Football Season.

A junior game between the Punahous
and the High School eleven was played
yesterday afternoon on the Punahou
campus resulting in a victory for the
High School. Score, 2 to 0. There was
large attendance and the playing
showed considerable promise The reg
schedule has been arranged, starting on
November IA, a week after the regular
league opens their season by a match
between the Artilleries and the H A.
C.'s. The junior games are to be play
ed every Saturday at Makiki commence
ing at three o'clock. The schedule is
fixed as follows:

about for grounds and nothing has yet
been decided upon. The captains and
managers visited both available grounds
this week and are now awaiting the
offer of definite terms from the Baseball
Trustees. The decision depends to a
large extent upon terms offered but
with a liberal offer from the baseball
men their ground will, on being prop
erly fixed up, be probably given the
preference. While the present condi-
ton of the ground is too hard the Boys
Brigade tract is entirely too soft and a
| rain would make it quagmire. The
same condition might apply to the base
ball grounds if the dirt is not rolled
| hard and operations started at once. In
the event of the Baseball Trustees Sc
curing the contract they will lose no
time in preparing the gridiron as the
proposed extra season of baseball seems
to have entirely fizzled out. The base
ball tract has the advantages of a COW
cred grand stand, dressing rooms and
washing UP lavatories for the players
and the fence is a much more difficult
obstacle to climb and easier to guard
| than the eight-foot fence of the Boys
Brigade.
The teams are all practising hard.
Jess Woods for the H. A. C.'s has been
hard at work on plays and some double
passes may be features of their game.
They have all the weight and should
be very successful in line punching if
they can play a lasting game.
The Punahous are going to put good
display of team work into the field and
will present pretty football. The Males
are under the disadvantage of a coach
or even some one to watch their prac-
tice plays and discover their weak
points. Sam Johnson's dropping out of
the game has materially weakened them.
They will play their hardest however
and hope to win. Percy Benson is
evolving good material from the Artil-
lery boys now they have got down to
work The soldier lads have so much
discipline in every day life that they are
somewhat inclined to loosen up in foot
ball practice but Benson has convinced
them of the necessity of united effort
and has weeded out his men until he
has very likely looking bunch. He
has at least three men who will put I'D
really first class football by the end
of the season.

British Even Matters.

A big crowd assembled at Makiki yes
match in a series OF three arranged by
teams of Hackfeld & Co. and T. H.
Davies. These mines met week ago
and the red jerseyed Hackfelders won
somewhat easily from the Davies boys,
who seemed out of training. The lat
ter put in hard work all last week and
after an exciting game yesterday won
in the ninth innings. The play could
hardly be called scientific but it was
productive of much fun and the nu-
merous partisans on both sides whooped
up the excitement which was as intense
when the score was tied in the eighth
as if it had been the deciding game in
the regular league. Both mines have
now won a match and the third match,
which will be played on Saturday next,
will be necessary.
The Hackfelders started out with nine
runs in the first two innings and victory
seemed assured. The Daveites played
a plucky uphill game however and soon
began to hold the Teutons down, fin
ally tying them in the eighth on passed
balls by the Hackfeld catcher. They
won the match in the second Of the
ninth, bringing two men home and clos
| ing the match with two men yet to bat.
