BASEBALL LEAGUE
DOES BUSINESS

The regular weekly meeting Of baseball
league was held yesterday afternoon
IN EIk's Hall Secretary Andrews pre-
sided and the following representatives
of the teams were present: Yjerra Of
Kamehameha. Carter of Punahou, Muir
ply of the Elks. Lucas and White for
the Males, and Ellis for the II. a c.
team.
Secretary Lorrin Andrews brought in
lis report of the bills which he had
already received. He stated that if the
bills were paid out of the $3.50 which
he had received from the Trustees. each
of the teams would have received a
trifie over $4s. AS the members pres
ent considered some of th,. bills ex-
cessive, an auditing committee CON
sisting of Carter. Murphy and Lucas
were appointed to get all the biiis and
be given full power 10 act in making
payments.
There was some discussion as 10
when the different teams were to use
the baseball grounds during the week
Each team was allowed one day. but
the days not being specified, there was
some confusion as two teams met on
the grounds at the same time. 1t was
finally decided that the four teams
playing a week from tomorrow should
draw lots to see what days each would
use the field.
The result was as follows: Monday,
the Elks. Tuesday. Punahou; Wedncs-
day. Kamehameha; Thursday. H. a.
C.
This arrangement only holds good for
next week. At the League meetings
every Thursday the teams will draw to
see what days they will use the grounds
on the following week.
The meeting then adjourned.

The meeting then adjourned.

The new arrangement of the ELK
team is causing some little specula-
ton as to whether the men will be-
come accustomed to their positions in
time for the game. Still the Elks will
not have the hardest kind of a game
to play, although there are dark
rumors that the Males are out for at
least one game before the season is
over. German who may play first and
Kennedy at third should give a good
account of themselves, being seasoned
men, but there seems to be sorne doubt
as to whether Meyer can fill the posi-
tion of shortstop successfully.

Columbia on Tuesday afternoons is THE

CONGRATULATIONS
New National Theater.

The success of the English comedian,
Charles Hawtrey, in his somewhat spec
tacular comedy, entitled "A Message From
Mars" the past two seasons, is in line for
duplication by the new play, by Felix An
stey, entitled THE Man From Blankley's,"
which is to be offered at the New National
Theater Monday evening, under Charles
Frohmans direction. after a successful ini-
tial run at the Criterion Theater, New
York, of nearly a hundred nights.
1t was Mr.. Frohmans intention to pre-
sent Mr.. Hawtrey in THE Man From
Blankley's' last season, after having intro
duced the actor to the American public the
season previous in "A Message From
Mars but it took all of the two seasons
before the theatergoers were thoroughly
satiated with the last-named play. Hence
it is that THE Man From Blankleys" is
only now about to be shown. The piece has
been in readiness for three years. since it's
initial production at the st. James Theater,
London. by Mr.. Hawtrey prior to his ar
rangement with Mr. Frohman for this
American tour. Mr.. Hawtrey has the role
of a young Scottish nobleman in the comedy.
This nobleman. Lord Strathpepper. a type
of the well-bred but not too brainy endowed
young man of the day, has been invited to
dinner by an Egyptologfst friend By acct
dent he gets into the house next door to the

posed, he took all the bets in sight. Finally
the freak bet came to the fore and James
Thornton proposed to Morton that If Low
lost Morton should go out upon the high
ways and byways and deliver his mono
logue to the four winds Of heaven, from be-
ginning to end, not emitting word. no
! matter what happened. All the world
knows that Low lost, but all the world Is

pened to Morton. The night after election

the bet, and necessarily the after-the-show

at the time stated. Mr. Morton, Mr.. Thorn
ton. their coadjutors, aiders and abettors
gathered in a fun-loving phalanx. Mr. Nor
ton started in on his monologue at the cor
ner of 42d street. Soon crowd gathered
and it was not long before the general opin-
ion was voiced that Morton was an escaped
lunatic. OF course his friends promoted the
public belief. Before long one of the sturdy
''coppers' of the Broadway squad hove in
sight and broke into the crowd. He was in
formed that Mr.. Morton was crazy man
who had been getting off some sort of jar
gon for ten minutes or more. The bluecoat
prepared for action at once, and with his
clubbing apparatus firmly In hand he seized
upon the luckless Morton, who had antici-
pated no such conclusion to his bet. Said
the cop: Come along, young fellow.
There's a friend of yours down the street
who wants to see you" Morton protested
man that he was Morton the monologuist
Whereupon the bluecoat gently assured
him that he knew that, and that he also
knew he was the Prince of Wales, Andrew
Carnegie and any one else he chose to call
himself. 1t was not until he had tele-
phOned Mr.. HoQgSon, one of the local thea
ter managers that he was enabled to prove
that he was really James Morton and not
demented.
NAPOLEON AND SPRINGFIELD RI
FLES.-Several of the critical ones, espe-
cially those of military proclivities who
witnessed the production at the Columbia
Theater this week, were surprised. to say
the least, when they observed that the
members of Napoleon's bodyguard were
armed with the United States army rifle,
tended to upset history. The question
arises. how was it possible for Napoleon to
provide his soldiers with firearms that did
not come into existence until many years
after the French general had passed away.
Mr.. Ziegfeld. however, should not be adj
judged guilty of inaccuracy regarding this
detail of his production. 1t was discovered
last Monday afternoon that certain of the
properties of the show had been misplaced
in transit. among them being the arms for
Napoleons soldiers Considerable hustling
followed, with the result that through the
courtesy of certain District National Guard
officials, sufficient number of the caliber
.45 Springfield rifles, retained for decorative
use on the stage The .45 caliber SPRING
field gave way to the modern Krag-Jorgen-
sen rifle several years ago, so far as active
service is concerned.
