The game started off well, but the
Maui Agricultural boys soon showed
their lack of practice and experience
! and several errors let in as many as
three runs at a timbe. the score being
at the finish of the game 26 to 9 i'm
favor of the Puunenes. Hattie and
| Simpson were decidedly too strong a
battery for the red shirt players to
handle. and the Puunene boys in gen.
eral played a strong game and showed
! their practice and experience. Simp-
son catcher and Goggsweu first base
! for the Puunene team were formerly
! members of the Male team in Honolulu
in the same capacity and are accounted
amongst the best bail players in the
Territory. The Maui Agricultural CO.
team has amongst it some good ball
material. and with practice and expert
ence would work into a good team.
After the finish of the bail game.
which was held on the polo field, the
large concourse of people proceeded to
the Sunnyside ground where a most
bountiful lunch was served under the
trees. A great profusioh of ferns had
been spread on the ground in seven
different places and upon this the peo-
pie sat and the lunch was served. each
table having a special committee of
ladies to look after it, The lunch was
without doubt the most bountiful and
most enjoyable one that has ever been
gotten up in this district and due APP
probation of it was shown by the
multitude present. About 300 people
sat down to the first table, and after
they were satisfied the laboring classes
filled the tables and ate until they could
eat no more, and still there was some
left over. Countless dozens of soda
water, white rock, etc, dozens of wa
termelons and boxes of grapes, salad
by the tub full, buns that melted in
your mouth, cold ham such as mother
used to make, cakes and cakes and an
endless amount Of other good things
to eat that simply made your mouth
water. After the lunch the people
stood about with barred heads and sang
America, and then lay about the lawn
for short time, Some tennis was in
dulged i'm by enthusiasts during this
part of the day, and about 2:3o p IN.
the crowd again repaired to the polo
field and fitting the rings was the next
order of the day. D. T. Fleming car
ried off the cup by winning out over
his competitors, but to keep it he must
