HAWAII WAS TAKEN
FOR NAVAL STATION

Senator Foraker, in closing a speech
"a, dwelt at length on the attitude of
the Republican administration toward
placing the United States flag where it
would be respected by all nations, no
matter what the future brought about.
He told of the war with Spain and
how the Philippines had been captur-
ed; how Deweys fleet, which was sta
toned at Hongkong, had FASTENED to
Manila and captured the Spanish fleet
and established a naval station that all
the powers would look to as one of
the greatest in the world. He was
loudly applauded when he told of how
the United States had placed itself in
position to defy the naval powers
of the world when it purchased the
Hawaiian Islands and Philippines for
the purpose of converting their harbors
into great naval stations. He dis
cussed the Panama Canal at length
and said: '.It was the result of the
Oregon trip around Cape Horn, in an
effort to reach the American fleet in
tie (o1iDpCdh cSet JUN II III liAC
assault upon the Spanish fleet in the
harbor of Santiago, under Admiral
Cervera. After this long voyage from
San Francisco around the cape it was
the determination of William McKin-
ley to build the Panama Canal"
Hawaii, however, was not purchased.
It was annexed by resolution of Con-
gress with the consent of the govern
ment of the Republic of Hawaii which
had previously offered treaty of an
nexation and after that rendered the
use of the Hawaiian ports to the U. S.
army and navy vessels in the Spanish
American war.

dredging it out will begin within a
month or so.
The dredging viii start at the cor

give steamships entering and depart

is expected that the work will be fully
completed by February next.
Later the harbor is to be dredged

Dor. This will necessitate the moving
of the Quarantine wharf back nearly
a hundred feet.

PLAY BALL IN ORIENT

as many of them as can get away for
the trip. He may also call on the
other teams for assistance and would
probably want to take an extra pitch
er or two besides couple of substi-
tutes. The japanese of this city feel
that there ought to be a couple of
japanese ball players on the team and
here is where the rub would arise, as
there are no Japanese ball players in
Honolulu who have sufficient class to
entitle them to go on such a team.
With the Chinese it is another matter,
as in En- Sue and Lo On there are two
coed men who play regularly with the
Saints, and there are several other
players in the Riverside League who
ought to make a good showing if they

YOU WILL NOT

be deceived. That there are cheats
and frauds in plenty rybody
knows; but it is seldom or never
that any large business house is
guilty of them, no matter what
line of trade it follows. There
can be no permanent success Of
a1y kind based on dishonesty or
deception. There never was, and
never will be. The men who try
that are simply fools and soon
come to grief, as they deserve.
Now many persons are, neverthe-
less, afraid to buy certain adver-
tised articles lest they be hum
plugged and deluded; especially
are they slow to place confidence
in published statements of the
merits of medicines. The effec-
tive modern remedy known as

is as safe and genuine an article
to purchase as flour, silk or cot
ton goods from the mills of
manufacturers with a worldwide
reputation. We could not afford
to exaggerate its qualities or mis-
represent it in the least; and it
is not necessary. 1t is palatable

used it in my practice and take
pleasure in recommending it as

The st. Louis baseball team will &c
to Japan. This was decided yesterday
! by a cablegram which was received
| by Captain Pat Gleason, of the ball
club, from the Keio University. The
| only word in the message was "Ac-
cepted." This is taken to mean that
the terms which were suggested by
Gleason in letters on the matter are
satisfactory to the Japanese players
and that they will be glad to see the
local players in the empire of the Ris-
ing Sun as soon as possible.
The terms which were offered will
mean that the local team will consist
of fifteen men. They will be paid all
their expenses both ways on the steam
ers and will be given first-class ac-
commodations. The hotel bills and
other transportation expenses which
will come up in Japan are also to be
footed by the japanese, who expect
unusually large crowds to witness the
international games.
The date on which the local PLAYERS
will leave for Japan is undecided as
yet. The last letters which were re-
ceived from the Japanese who are
managing the matter IN connection
with Gleason and Lieut.. Ito, of this
city, stated that full information would
come in the mail on the Manchuria,
but not single line in regard to the
arrangements was received. Gleason
expects that the Nippon Maru, due
next Saturday, will bring full particu-
lars. At present the boys know that
they are wanted in Japan but do not
know when.
1t is possible that the Japanese are
figuring on playing the local boys this
fall, in which case it would either
mean that they would have to rush
away and return almost Immediately
or they would be away when the team
from the Coast comes here. Another
theory is that the st. Louis team is
not expected till the spring, when they
would go over to the Orient, play their
series, and then return at the same
time as the Japanese team which is
to visit the Coast, and which will
probably stop over a steamer here be-
fore going through. The fact that the
cable was used, however, makes it
seem likely that games are contem-
plated which are to be played in the
month of November.
There may be a little trouble over
the personnel of the team. Gleason
states that he expects to take along
the regular st. Louis team, or at least

Fistic Notes

Indian Joe" Gregg met with his
first reverse in a long time at Indian
apolis last week. He faced Jack Mogan
the champion welter of Indiana, and
after ten fast rounds he was declared
the loser. The champion had his meas
ure from the start and would in all
probability have scored a decisive vic
tory in a few more rounds. Gregg was
very groggy at the end of the final
round.
Kid Wolgast exploded another Brit
ish phenom when he defeated Jeff
O'COnnell in fifteen rounds at ST. Jo-
seph, Mo-, the other night. Wolgast
had his man all but out in the first
two rounds, but he rallied, and by
clinching saved himself from a knock
out. The fight was very one-sided, al
though occasionally O'Connell would
try to force the fighting and after
stopping few hard ones would slack
up again.
The next fight that win be held in the
Mission-street arena will be furnished

PUNS HAVE LOST
FOOTBALL MEN
College Team Will Have to
Pick New Players for
EIevens

The outlook for the f1ptbalI team of
the Punahou College fl the present
year is unusually good, Dough several
of the best players of la years team
have left ana must be &placed from
the second eleven of la& year. Six
members of the team, including both
ends. the center and quarterback, have
left college, but several of the men
on the second eleven have gained in
weight and strength, and should make
good this yean Bill Desha, Frank
stack, Ted Coober and Raymond Smith
are among those who should make the
first eleven. Coach Reid is in charge
of the work and will be assisted by
Mr. Arnold and should help Captain
Joe Pa to form a good team, that will
show the Kamehameha Schools, the
strongest antagonist which the Puns
have to meet, that they can play ball.
A great deal of work has been done
on the new, athletic field and it is near
" level now, but can not be used for
football this season. The work is be-
ing kept up, however, and every effort
will be made to have it in shape for
track athletics when the spring comes
around.
The entire prospect for athletics at
Punahou is unusually good, and from
the outlook the baseball team of this
year should be the best which has
ever been turned out from the college.
In track athletics the Puns are a little
weak, but have the right spirit and
will do well if they start in training
early and take full course in the
hard work necessary to bring out WIN
