previous record of So strokes, the best

IRON WORKERS
WERE ALL RIGHT

The Honolulu Iron Works baseball
team defeated the well known Maya
zine nine, this being the first game
they have lost this season. Melvin
Simpson of the Makilxi's was catcher
for the Magazines and the first time
was the only run for six innings when
three runs were made by errors in the
eighth inning. The score being to 4
in favor of the Iron Works.
II. Honan of the Iron Works team
picthed a good game and did some very
good batting. The Iron Works team is
the only nine that has defeated the
Magazines and Portlands. The teams
were as follows: H 1. w. Laing,
l. f.: r. Honan. p.; C. R. Roe, (Capt.)
C.; A. Hussey, c. f.; H. Williams, b.;
En- G., S. s.; II. .Nahiwa, 2 b.; L. Pill

ton, s. s.; C. Bushnell, C. f.; j. Macaul-
ley, l. f.; j. Honan. +. f.;
Harry Bruins and Hampton, umpires.
There were six base hits on each side.
which shows that both Bushnell and
Honan had a few choice ones up their
sleeve.
There will probably be a return

have confidence in their ability to de-

PAC|FICS
VICTORIOUS
Soldier Boys Are Given
Surprise of Their
Existence.

The Artillerys were a surprised bunch
of baseball players when they met de-
feat yesterday afternoon on the Knpio-
lani park field at the hands of the
Paeifics. The score was to in favor
of the Pacifics, and better ball playing
has seldom been seen this season. The
Pacifics played a remarkably clear
headed game, the field supporting the
battery in an excellent manner. Pitcher
Rodriguez pitched the best game that
he has participated in this season.
The Aalas defeated the Punahcus IN
the second game of the day by score
of 10 to. 4. Both teams played an even
w matched game until the seventh in
ming, when the Pacifics went to pieces
temporarily and let in seven runs. Up
to that time the score was to in
their favor.
The result of yesterdays games vii!
make the game next Sunday between
the Artillerys and Aalas doubly inter-
esting, for both are now fighting for
the top place.
The Artillerys played poor game
yesterday making errors where none
were to be thought of previously. and
their batting was not UP to the aver
age. This may be accounted for by
reason of Rodriguez steady pitching
throughout the game, Pitcher Ripber-
ger of the .Artillerys had II strike-outs
to his credit, and Rodriguez g.

first lift of the sphere giving him a
home run and scoring four runs to
start with. This occurred in the third
