CASTLE MAY PITCH
IN GAME SATURDAY

Alfred Castle, pitcher on the Har-
ward Varsity nine, is expected home
On Wednesday next, and it is possible
he may pitch in next Saturdays game
with the Punahou team. The Elks
will line up then against the Colleg-
ians.
The fans are wondering just how
well Castle will play UP with the Pu-
nahou team. Although reckoned one
of the rising university pitchers. it is
thought that unless his support is of
the best he viii not greatly assist in
pulling the team up from its low place
in the percentage list. Castle is not
great striker-out, but this is a feature
which is not greatly encouraged in
university balI-pIaying. L is Castles
forte, or was at least, to pitch so that
batters tipped up more flies than was
good for them. Flies are all right when
the fielding is dependable to stop them
correctly and surely; otherwise not.

1t was Gladstone's habit when IN
Paris to visit the Latin Quarter, where
he haunted the secondhand book
shops. One day, as he entered a shop
near the Odeon, he found the bookseller
talking with an odd-looking person who
held in his hands an old edition OF VIII
Ions poems. His dress was ragged and
dirty, his face matted with hair, and he
had 1.-The eyes of an archangel and the
mouth and jaw of a baboon." The re-
spectful attitude of the bookseller show
ed, though, that the man was a per
sonaIity. Gladstone entered into con-
versation with him about Villon. and
for an hour they discussed early French
poetry; then the stranger shuffied out
of the shop. Who i{that gentleman
inquired Gladstone, With interest; ne
has an extraordinary knowledge OF
French poetry" Monsieur. he himself
is our greatest poet. C'est Paul Yer
laine!"

There was constant naval activity

japanese torpedo or one of their own
mines. Admiral Togo sent four of his
gunboats TO make Reconnaissance of
Port Arthur harbor One Of the boats
was hit eight times and sustained some
damage. The following night he sent
eight torpedo boats for similar pur-
pose. One sailor and one officer were
killed, but the boats escaped undam-
aged.
Admiral Kataoka has been engaged
in clearing Dalny harbOr of mines He
has found and exploded seventy-eight.
He now reports that the first section
of the bay is completely clear. He
also reports that he found two Rus
