MAHUKA MAY
PLAY HERE

Sam Mahuka has written down from
Hawaii that he thinks that he will be
able to play ball with the All-Hawaii
team and if given chance he claims
that he can get as good as he ever
was, if not better. This is saying a
great deal, for Mahuka was a crack a
few years ago and was considered to be
the best ball player on these islands.
In fact, Mahuka once won a prize for
being the best all round player here,
and he was given a trip to the volcano
Mahuka expects vacation and
wants to come here and practise with
the team until the time comes to play.
Sam has a team of his own on the
Parker ranch and has been playing ball
ever since he left Honolulu. He will,
under these conditions, be in fair shape
to play.
There is no player who is more
thought of here amongst the natives
than Sam Mahuka. He is considered
a wonder amongst them and they would
like nothing better than TO see their
idol back in the game. If Mahuka does
come, he will play some of the games
at first. This is his old place and he
was considered the king of his time on
this bag. All of the old fans state that
he was a great place hitter and to their
knowledge he was struck out but once
and that was by Niger Woods, a great
pitcher.
AS the time grows near, the interest
in the Coast series games increases, and
the principal talk of the town is base
ball. The public is sure to be treated
to the greatest baseball during this time
that they have ever seen.
Spalding Bros. have QUILTED the
Coast team in new uniforms and the
team will be known as the Spaldings.
Their suits are red, white and blue, the
national colOrs.
Season tickets for the games are SELL
ing well and it looks as though record
breaking crowds will be in attendance. |

fettle just now, and when couple of
more weeks have rolled around they

both Bill Vannatta and Jim Williams

LOST FORTY POUNDS
A PREY TO KIDNEY DISEASE.
DoAN'S BACKACHE KIDNEY
PILLS BROUGHT BACK HEALTH
AND STRENGTH.

William H. Walter, Stationary En-
gineer, Chatsworth, ILL.,, U. S. A, says:
about seven years ago + was taken
with terrible pain in my side and
back which made me cry aloud in
agony. At the same time the urine
was found to be thick, dark, full of
sediment and painful of passage. At
lacks of this kind followed in rapid
succession, each seeming more severe
than ever. I would hardly be out of
bed with one attack before another
seized me. I was racked with pain
day and night, could not sleep or eat,
and to cap the climax. rheumatism
came upon me, contracting the mus
cles and stiffening the joints of my
lower limbs, so that l was bent and
doubled and could not stand erect /
lost forty pounds of weight, running
down rapidly to one hundred and thir-
ty. My heart was rapid. / seemed
bilious, my food distressed me and r
awoke every morning with a dry and
parched mouth. 1 doctored faithfully,
but without result, and finally began
using Doan's Backache Kidney Pills
with really wonderful results. In a
short time I could feel the tense and
contracted muscles relax. The stiff
ness left my joints, and in about six
weeks I was able to stand erect again
and even to bend a little. You may
be sure I kept taking Doan's Back
ache Kidney Pills and in another six
weeks I was sound and well, eating
heartily and gaining strength and
weight I now tip the scales at two
hundred pounds.
And best of all, though it is eigh> |
teen months since I was cured. I have
not had any return of rheumatism or
kidney trouble, and give all the credit |
for my cure to Doan's Backache Kid /
ney Pills"

senting T. H. Davies & Co. and the

challenge for a series of three games.
which was accepted by the Hackfeld
team.

Fseries. and since then the Davies team
has been practising hard. AS a re-
sun they think they can carry the
Hackfeld boys into their warehouse.
The Hackfeld boys celebrated their
last victory by giving luau, and so
confident are they that this second Sc
ries will be theirs that they are max
ing arrangements to invite the Davies
nine to celebrate their own defeat.

TEssIE THE WAITRESS.
The Reason That Faithful No. 12
 Took Day on.

Like the tated duchess in Brown lng's poem, Tessie smiled upon all men. No matter how intricate the order or how many times you sent things back, she never grumbled. There was al- ways struggle 10 get a seat at her table. "The boys" who regularly gath cred in the downtown restaurant at half past 12 would wait fifteen min utes for the privilege of being served by Tessie. They joked her a good deal and always were rewarded by a fash ing smile and a twinkle of the eye bit Of repartee or perhaps a little ex- tra attention to their order But nev- CT did one of them presume upon her friendliness and bon camaraderie to Overstep the very certain line which she had drawn between herself and those whom she served. She was young. piquant and pretty. but she "mothered" them all, and, no matter how tenderly she might ask if the eggs were just right or the coffee hot they knew that 1t was useless to msinter- pret that 'mothering."
 Tesse stayed in the downtown lunch room just three years. From the day she came the managers discerning eye discovered a prize in her, and from the ladies' table she was promoted to one where masculinity and tips were more frequent. If waitress were absent, Tessie was always given the extra" table to serve, and she never complain ed. Tessie was never tardy, never too i'll to work, never distralt or care less. Tirelessly she went up and down with her arms full of dishes and food. "The boys" used to speculate sometimes upon Tessie's matrimonial possibilities and hazard guesses as to what they would do when some fellow carried her off to wait on himself ex- clusively. But in time she became such a fixture that they ceased wonder ing why such pretty girl was forced to work in a quick lunch room and gave up the thought that she would ever marry at all.
 That is why they were very much surprised one day when they arrived to find no Tessie Another waitress tried to take her place but nobody got what he wanted, and nothing went right. They had been so used to de- pending upon Tesses suggestions and her memory that the new waitress had hard time of 1t. Finally in fit of the grouch one of the boys called the manager over
 Say" he demanded, where's Tes- sie?"
 The manager lifted his eyebrows po- litely.
 "Tessie?" he began. "Oh, you mean No. 12 She will be back tomorrow"
 The next morning Tessie appeared as usual. The crowd of young clerks greeted her with whoop.
 "Where have you beenY they de- handed.
 Tessie looked at them for q moment. Her fingers gripped the edge of the table, and two big tears rose to her eyes.
 "I-I stayed home yesterday" she said chokingly, toto go to my hus- bands funeral"
 The clerks looked at one another blankly.
 "Your husbandw exclaimed some body.
 "Yes," said Tessie simply. He's dead. He had been i'll three years consumption" And then she hurried away to the kitchen to give her. orders and wipe her tear stained face.
