| humble themselves before Punahou
yesterday afternoon. OF course the out
come Of the first game was not hard to
prophesy and it was about as was ex-
pected' regular procession from the
hrst, with Kamehanreha Wen in the
lead. In fact Male never had any hope
after the third inning, and the crowd
simply sat through the game because
a better one was coming after that one
The game was very slow also and in
many cases delays might have been
avoided If the teams had gotten out on
the field with any kind of speed. The
felders in the first game took all their
time coming in and going out between
| innings.
The second game started with a rush
and it looked as If things would be do
ing, but Punahou rolled up a score of
Ave in the first two innings and the
Elks were only able to scrape one and
| there they stood until the last inning.
| when they brought one more man
across the plate.
The Elks played their new man, Ken
| nedy. who arrived on the last Alameda
at first base, and considering his short
time ashore he acquitted himself credit
ably. In connection with Kennedy's
appearance there occurred one of the
worst features of the baseball games
here. AS he was a new man a small
portion of the crowd, which is by no
means the most desirable part, seemed
to find pleasure in kissing him. Not
only has Kennedy been Kissed but other
way, and visitors get a rather poor idea
of some of Honolulu's wouldbe sports,
who act in this manner to stranger
who has been brought here to improve
a local team.
The first game was late in starting so
that 1t was long after five o'clock be-
fore the second was finished.
