The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1905-04-28

The colors of Kamehameha fioated
above those of the Honolulu High
School at the end of the interscholas-
tic baseball game yesterday afternoon
suit was in doubt until the very last
moment of the game. There was some
very snappy bali played and some that
was not so snappy but on the whole it
was a very good game. At one time
things looked all Blue and White but
towards the end the boys with the
to the situation and all but caught up.
With the score So against them, two
outs and one man on second, Chill
lingwo~th lined a long clean drive out
into right field that brought in one
tally The rooters howled for another
score but Schmidt could not connect
with any sphere but the atmos-
phere and the Kams won, "a.
The first inning ended with a goose
egg for each team. In the second the
High School made nothing but the
Hams managed to fill the bases and
De Fries walked one man in. Two
more got in on wild throws which were
meant to go to first. A fourth tally
ended the scoring for that inning. In
the third Sam White knocked a pref
ty two-bagger and came down the
home stretch on a drive by Ensue in
to the right garden. There was moth
ing doing in the fourth but Myer start
ed the ball rolling in the fifth by lin
ing out a hot one between the center
and left fielders that landed him on
the third sack. Hamauku brought
him home on a pretty single. This
ended the scoring for the Rams.
There was nothing exciting in the
sixth. In the seventh the High School
IS got together and the Rams got a
i. tile ratified with the result that Lo
and williams circled the bags, both
having started out by the four ball
route. No scoring was done in the
eighth but in the ninth the High
School got a run and for time things
looked bright for the Orange and
Black. But the last batter struck out
and the hoped for tally died on sec
ond base. The next game between
these two teams will be worth seeing.

Its walking with cane when you

Papa-"Tommy, if you had little
more spunk, YOU would stand better in
your class. Now, do you know what
spunk is?" Tommy-"Yes. sir. It's
the past participle of spank"

mother. Just like other ladies do. :"
replied Bessie. '1'm going to marry a

Small Willie one day asked his moth
er who made the trees and was told
that God made them. A few days later
an old colored man came to trim the
trees, and, the little fellow seeing him
at work, ran to his mother and ex-
claimed; 'Oh, mamma, Gods out in
the yard repairing His trees!"
