Avail stretches almost from the main
island, on the north, to Shlkolu. on
the south. Steamers going from Yoko-

Kobe, pass into the Inland Sea through
the Straits of Akaslii and thread mar

crowned by mountains covered with

of the bridge attached itself to the

interesting information that be is
the owner of valuable SOW and
nine pigs, for which be was or
fered S45 in cash during Christmas.
The pigs are little more than two
months old. The remarkable fen
ture concerning the SOW Is that she
has furnished meat for Mr.. Stan
ley's family for FIVE years and a
revenue from the sale Of meat, over
and above what the family re-
quired, to the value Of 500. TIE SOW

The Baseball Game.

Immediately after the dinner
hour the crowd wendell its way down
to the baseball diamond to witness
the game between Mitchell and Plank

linton pounded out two runs, aided
by errors. Herman went in the box
for Mitchell and Hamiel was at the
receiving end. In the second, third
and fifth innings Plankinton found
the ball readily and with good hit
ting they had men on bases and the
hits counted for scores. Herman was
taken out after the third inning and
Dunsmore went in to break up the
batting streak, but he was touched
up in the fifth for three runs.
Mitchell did not score until the
third inning, when l.. Smith and
Herman got on bases by hits, and
Sid Smith got a crack at the leather,
lifting the ball away into left field
for a two Dagger, scoring Smith and
Herman. In the fifth Woodman
connected with the sphere for a long
hit to right field. bringing in two
men and landing himself on third
base, and he scored later. In the
seventh two more runs wer brought
