all seemed to enjoy the railroad ride.
and the very pleasant. cool breezes
that blow across the peninsula.
Happiness prevailed. Nothing of a
serious character marred the pleasures
of the day. Pastor A. V. Soares and
his good wife appeared to enjoy every
moment. Food was supplied in abund-
ance, and a unanimous vote of thanks
was extended to Mr.. J. M. Camara for
his generous contribution of saltwater
for the day. Teachers and scholars
openly agreed in calling the Portu
guese picnic a success, largely due, of
course, to the faithful work Of the va
rious committees.

THE METHODIST PICNIC.

The First Methodist Episcopal Sum-
day School held their annual picnic
yesterday at the Damon premises at
Waikiki, and it will be a. day long to
be remembered by all, for it's sociability
and good time. There We're games for
both old and young as well as a pro-
gram of sports with first and second
prizes offered. In the game of base
ball John NJ. Martins Boys League
won against all corners.
One of the most amusing features of
the day was the pie eating contest. The
pies We're especially made for the oc-
casion by Mrs. F. E. Haley. The con-
test was won by Miss Nina Weight Of
Hilo. At 1890 all partook of the ele-
giant lunch prepared by the ladies
which was served on the spacious la
nails on the premises. Among the spe-
ciaI guests present We're: Mrs Stod-
dart. the wife of the manager of Nc
Bryde plantation; Miss Hiscock, Al
berta, Canada; Mr.. and Mrs. Smith Of
Pearl City; Miss Nina Weight of Hilo.
The committee in charge of the games
and sports was: Manager, John NJ.
Martin; judges, Miss Hiscock, Mr..
Kerns. Mrs. T. E. Haley; starter, F.
E. Haley.

A most exciting cricket match was
that played yesterday at Makiki be-

Scotia was defeated but only in the

at the last wicket up of The World.

Tug.of:War.

Probably the greatest tug of-war pull
that ever took place on these islands
was pulled off last evening between
the Waterfront Stevedores and the
Portuguese. It took the boys from the
front 1 hour and 50 minutes of the
hardest kind of pulling to get the
Punchbowl boys out. They stuck to
the rope for all that was in them and
they certainly died game. There was
all kinds of rivalry between these
teams and much money changed hands
guese took the slack in the rope and
gained a couple of inches, this was
the only advantage that they gained
in the evening and they were soon to
lose this advantage.
After about half an hour the Steve
dores all laid to and pulled the white
mark down the board for about three
feet. 1t was here that the anchor of
off the boards and was left with a
three-foot space. For one hour the
Indicator stayed at this mark and it
was not until the Stevedore captain
had renailed the cleat that they were
able to gain further ground. The boys
at last got together and by a mighty
effort the Stevedores succeeded in win
ming.
The Stevedores have very strong
team and when they meet the Roads
and Bridges there will be a pull we'll
worth seeing.
The pull between the Lumber Yards
and Roads and Bridges lasted 25 min
utes with the Roads and Bridges win
ming.
The Portuguese Jr., pulled the Boys
Brigade in about 10 seconds.

first Right here was a fine chance to
tie the score, but the Wasps failed to
connect The Reds took their turn
with the stick and were retired after
three more runs had crossed the plate.
Williams pitched the remainder of the
game and the Green lads could do
nothing with his underhand ball.
KAMS 8, PUNS 2.
This game started off in champion
ship style with Ahrens and Reuter-
both pitching strong ball. The Rams
started their run getting in the second
innings and did not stop until three
men-Hamakau, Jones and Sheldon
had successfully made the rounds.
Hamakau and Jones hit safe and adj
vanced on Meyers's throw to first.
Timely hitting to center scored two
runs and finally Sheldon crossed the
plate on a safe one.
The Puns started their run getting
in the fifth after G. Judd had hit safe
and was on first. Woods hit a hard
one past Kekuewa for three bases and
Judd scored. Meyer scored their sec
ond run in the sixth after placing a
pretty single down to right garden,
stealing second and taking third on a
passed ball. A hit was all that was
needed to land him safe. Several times
the Punahous had men on bases but
failed to meet the ball at the proper
time. Play as they would, neither
team was able to score more runs and
finally when the last Pun. man died at
the bat and the game was over the
fans declared that they had witnessed
one of the finest games of ball that
they had seen in many a day.

H. A. c. won the toss and took the
field and retired the Males in one,
two, three order. En- Sue punched a
dandy over short and stole second.
Louis was there with the heavy stick
and shot one through En- Gee. Louis
and En- Gee worked a double steal that
looked good. Louis took big lead off
of first and when the ball was thrown
there he and En- Sue both advanced.
Barney landed on the horse hide for a
long one and Williams, who was run
ming in place of En- Sue, scored the
first and opening run. Louis, JOY,
Williams and Gleason scored in rapid
succession and finally when the bonn
bardment stopped the hell rang for B..
The Reds scored one more in the
second. For three innings not a Wasp
touched first. In the fourth the Males
managed to bring En- Gee and Simpson
across the pan. This brought the
crowd to their feet and it looked as
though things We're going bad for the
Reds, but they pulled together and
saved themselves. In the fifth the
Champs scored again on some bad err
rorS by the WaspS.
In their half of the sixth the Wasps

Important Tax Decision.

The Superior Court at Scranton
affirmed the decision of the North
cumberland county court in the case
of he Union Coal Co. VS.. the
county, Goal township, the poor
district, and the collectors of taxes
therein. The coal company filed a
bill i'll equity praying to be released
from paying taxes levied by GER
tain assessment on their lands in
Coal township. They claimed the
land had been assessed with the
breakers, pumphouses. etc.. and
objected to paying taxes levied by
an assessment on the land direct.
The defendant municipal corpora
tions contended both assessments
were JUS and Judge Auten decided
in their favor. The attorneys OF
the coal company took the case &c
the Supreme Court, but the amount
involved being under 1900, the
justices RENTED it to the Superior
Court. where the case was argued
last October by Attorneys Lark ant
