In an article entitled The Tax We
Pay to Insects" by Clifford Howard,
in the November number of Apple
tons Booklovers Magazine, the follow
ing passage relates TO the Hessian fly:
This abominable creature is a lega-
cy from King George III. He sent it
over here in the straw that accom-
panied his dirty Hessian troops, and
since that time it has been steadily
at work levying a retributive tax up
on the American nation for it's rebel
lion against the motherland. In one
year we will give up to this tax col
Iector as much money as 1t cost us
to gain our Independence. The cash
represented in the losses caused by
twelve months work on the part of
the Hessian fly is sufficient to have
paid the entire cost of our eight years
war with Great Britain-a source of
grim satisfaction, no doubt, to the
shade of the willy King George"

MALES Win
GOOD GAME
Defeat Famous Fifteenth

Eleven.
MALE ILIMAS, II.
FIFTEENTH INFANTRY, 6.

The Male lima footbalIers had a
try-out yesterday and emerged from
the ideal in very satisfactory fashion,
defeating the 18th Infantry e1even by
the score of II to s.
The soldier team arrived by the
transport Sherman early yesterday
morning, but a challenge had been for
warded from California. The visitors
arrived with a reputation, for a day
or SO before leaving gan Francisco
second team by the score of % to 0.
Now the Stanford second or the
Scrubs as they are called, are no
slouches at the game and can make
it very interesting for the varsity
eleven upon occasion.
The prowess of the military team
not long before street talk credited the
eleven with averaging 200 pounds, be-
ing every bit as good as Michigan, and
containing some of the most marvel
dtHteteS ever TdiSCu III the United
States.
The challenge was addressed to the
Honolulu Athletic Club, but as that
organization is doing nothing in foot
ball this season it was passed along to
the Males, who accepted it through
the medium of Coach Benson, with
thanks.
The local team was not a particu-
larly strong one, a number of first
choice men being unable to play owing
to business engagements. Had the Ma
lies been playing their last seasons
| championship team it would have made
rings round the soldiers
The kickoff took place at the new
baseball ground at 4:10 p. m, a fair
sized crowd of spectators being pres
ent. A great improvement in the man
ner the crowd was handled was notice.
| able, the side lines being kept clear
and the progress of the game guarded
from interruption.

MALES INFANTRY.
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1905-11-15

The soldiers, who looked a particu-
larly husky lot, averaged 1876 pounds
to the man.
The Infantry kicked off from the
makai end and a dribble left the sol
diers in possession of the ball.
For a while things looked blue for
the home team for the soldiers went
through the Male line at will and by
the aid of Hearst scored a touchdown
about four minutes after the start Of
the game.
The touchdown being converted in
to a goal, the score read to nil in
favor of the visitors.
Almost Immediately after the kick
off Pfunkett secured the ball and ran
the entire length of the field for a
touchdown. The score was disallowed
however, on account of some misunder-
standing in which the referees whistle
was involved. Reluctantly the Males
trailed back to the other end of the
field
The soldiers continued to show to
advantage on the offensive and played
a pretty and effective system of line
bucks.
When the Males got the ball their
showing gladdened the hearts of the
supporters of the green and gold. James
and Plunkett were repeatedly sent out
side of the opposing tackles and rarely
indeed did their efforts prove futile.
These two players were responsible
for the ball being carried by degrees
to the enemys goal-line shortly before
half-time and eventually Plunke't
squeezed the sphere over the chalk
mark.
Freeth took the kick but failed to
notch the additional point and the half
! closed with the score reading Intan-
try, 6; Miles, s.
There was great rejoicing among the
Male contingent during the interval
The soldiers, on the other hand, Wore
a worried look and retired for an tarn-
est consultation. The game was tell
ing on them after their long voyage
and more than one of the big fellows
showed signs of being all in.
The second half was marked by slow,
stubborn playing Throughout. An oc
casiOnal kick would send the ball into
the Males territory and then a spell
of end runs and line bucks would en-
sue and the Fifteenth would 9lOwly,
but surely be driven back.
About e;"'-t minutes before the call
of 'iue PIGn'-ett was sent over for an
other touchdown and James kicking
a beautiful goal, the score became, Ma
lie Ilimas. Il: 18th Infantry g.
Nothing else of a sensational nature
happened and the game ended with
the ball we'll in the Infantry's terri
tory.
The Males played a fairly fast game
and showed the effects of steady train
ing. The weak point in the soldiers
line was outside of tackle on both
Males gains were made
The officials gave excellent satisfac-
ton under trying circumstances, for
the game was in places anything but
a clean one and the soldiers seemed
ready TO yell dirty play" on the
slightest DrOVOcatiOn.
At one period of the game a lieut.
enant who was playing back of the line
for the soldiers shouted to his men to
play dirty if the Males didn't let up
on their alleged rough work.
All in all the game was a good one,
even if a trif1e slow. It should do the
Males a lot of good and will undoubt-
eddy stimulate interest in the coming
series of games for the senior cham
pionship

Springfield Pulls a Game Out of the Fire-ResuIts of All Games Played in All Leagues.

Springfield, Mass, June 1O.-With tbe score 10 to 4 against Springfield in the sixth yesterday, a batting rally was be- gun which, helped by Holyoke's mis- plays, led to an II to 10 victory, when one man was out in the tenth. Hess and Vickers were batted hard for six in- nings and both were removed. In the ninth an error by Hummel and hits by McKeon, Tansey and Altizer tied the score. In the tenth with one out, Crook hit for two bases. O'Connor's fly was muffed by Bannon. and then Nagel sent in the winning run with hit. Flana- gan was removed from the game by Umpire Cooley for objecting to base decision.
 The late-inning excitement was con tagi0us. It moved players and specta- tors until no one on the grounds ex- cepting Dan O'Neil, who was hopeful, had self-control of any kind. When Crook went up in the tenth, the man. ager offered S1O for two-base hit and Crook made it. For his safe hit Na- gel got $1O bill. Then every memter of the Ponies was given an order for a 8 straw hat. so deeply did the hard fight impress itself upon the apprecia- tive club owner. The score:

WON BY BATTING.

Bridgeport. June 10.--Rridgeport won from New Haven yesterday after noon by the score of 10 to z. The Ora tors deserved to lose it on errors. but deserved 10 win it on their batting. The boys certainly had on their swat ting clothes and landed on Phil Cor coran for fifteen hits. The game was .streaked." There were spots of sharp play but there were two dreadful vel low streaks that dimmed the brillian. cy of the game. In the second inning New Haven had streak of yellow ness. In that inning the Orators made four hits. which. with the assistance of nun by Goulden and an error by Sherwood. resulted fin six runs for the home team. In the eighth inning Cor nen gave two passes, made a wild throw. O'Rourke made one of his wild slings to Bill Yale. III Ladd and Foster let rolling balls glide between their feet. and four of the Hopefuls made circuit of the bases. On the other hand. Beaumont and Yale executed a double play that sparkled. It was the prettiest thing ever seen on the grounds for swiftness.
 Neither Cornen nor Corcoran had their speed. both men being touched up more than they preferred. The first balk of the season was made by Cornen. The score:
