drew out a big crowd, but the playing
was not up to the usual standard of the
teams. The Artillerys defeated the
Honolulu Iron Works, 9 to 5. and the
Aalas gave the Pacifics a Waterloo in
a ragged game where the score stood
u to at the finish. The general
amusement was enlivened by a scrap
during the Aala-Pacific game in which
a member of the former team gave
drubbing to Pacific sympathizer who
talked too much for his own good
along the side line.
The Artillery-Iron Works game Gre
ated the most enthusiasm, but, al
though it started well, the Iron Works
We're seen to be poor in fielding and
their pitcher was not strong enough to
hold down the Uncle Sam boys. In

the box and new man substituted.

good form as usual and sent many iron
moulders to, first base on balls.

The Artillerys had a battalion of
rooters, their position on the side line
being marked by red standard.
When the Iron moulders took hold of
the bat again the sphere had no easy
time of it, for it went hurting about
the field and kept the cannon trundlers
on the oui vive. Old Tom Price was
caught trying a slide to the home
plate, but more men took charge of
the bags, one man scoring by diving
through the catcher's legs.
The Artillerys started in for blood in
the third innings and put two men on
the bags in quick order. Gephart
scored on Stapleton's bunt and Parr
brought in another run on a grounder

began to show signs of weakening,
but picked up the latter part of the
innings and surprised the khaki wear
ers by holding them down. Three runs
were scored.

the fourth innings, but it ended as

pile up. Leftfelder Wood made cost

From the fifth to the end of the game
there was raggedness in playing. The
Iron men braced UP again in the sixth
inning and scored a run, following 1t
up in the next with a couple of TALES

or four innings failing to score, due
