There are no more reserved seats on
sale for the baseball games on Thanks
giving day. The last one was sold by
Walter Doyle, who has charge of this
part of the business, early yesterday
afternoon. The telephone bell at the
Gunst-Eakn cigar store has been ring
ing steadily for hours at a stretch, and
those who have failed to secure good
seats for Thursdays games will be
forced to take to the bleachers, stand
up or miss the game.
A word to the wise might help. The
games for Saturday and Sunday will
attract big crowds and the seats for
these games too are selling very rap
idly. 1t would not be bad scheme to
look ahead a little and find out how
many are left this morning.
Tickets for the bleachers and for
general admission will be on sale both
today and tomorrow at Gunst- Eakin's
in order that the crush at the box
office. which took place on Sunday,
may be avoided. Walter Doyle vii. be
on hand from 9 a. m. on.

LAJOIE KING
OF BALLpLAYERS

Napoleon Lajoie, the king of ball
Players was born at Woonsoeket,
r. l., Sept. 9Th, 1875. His first profess
sional engagement was with Fall
River, Mass. in 1896. This is his
twelfth season as a professional ball
player and he is doing better work
right now than at any time during his
long career.
He first started as a catcher, but his
terrific batting made him more desir-
able so he was shifted to the outfield,
where he made good from the start
Lajoie did such good work in the New
England League that he soon attract
ed the attention of Bill Nash, who
managed the Philadelphia Nationals,
and he signed him to play with that
club He made his first appearance
in the major league on August 18th,
1896, and he has been with the majors
ever since.
In 1901 he signed with Connie Mack
who managed the Philadelphia Ath-
letics. That year he was the leading
batsman of the country. The next year
the Supreme Court rendered a decision
to the effect that the option clause
of the Philadelphia Nationals was ef-
fectfve in the cases of Lajoie and Bill
Bernhard and Frazier, so Lajoie and
Bernhard signed with Cleveland. As
soon as Lajoie came to Cleveland the
team turned from a tailender to team
that has had a chance for the pennant
every season since.
When the two major leagues enter
ed into a peace pact in 1908 Lajoie re-
,o57 q
capped the contempt of court charge
which hung over him when ne joined
the Cleveland club.
There is only one ball player in the
Isgame who compares for an instant
with the reader of the Maps, and he is
Hans Wagner, the great snortstop OF
the Pittsburg National League club'
Partisans of each league OF course
give the palm to their favorite, but II
is admitted generally that LaJo1e Is the
greatest ball player of the age.
Lajoie, in spite Of the fact that ne
is the king of them all and STANDS III
a class by himself, is genial, unas-
Stunning man. Although he has been
given the extreme of praise by nero
worshiping public for twelve years
he is still the plain, quiet man ne al
ways was. In fact. those VINO assn
ciated with him early in his career as
a ball player, assert that all athietc
honors which have come to him, nave
tempered his disposition rather tnan
caused him to hold aloof from players
and fans.
Lajoie's fielding is characterized by
a grace and ease of movement possess
ed by no other player. Were NJ OF
the Wagner type, a man who stabs al
the easy ones and falls all oyer the
hard ones. there is no doubb Of the
verdict of the baseball loving pubic
But Larry does not do that. He makes
the hard ones look easy and pulls OF
seemingly impossible plays as though
the ball were coming straight to him

men in the game today, yet he made
the play look so easy that it passed
almost unnoticed.
In batting he stands well back from
the plate, runs up on the bali and hits
il a vicious blow. His reputation as
a "slugger'' is such that 1t is well nigh
impossible for him to get an extra
base hit except on sharp line drive,
because opposing fielders invariably
hug the fence when he is at bat. Larry
is one of the greatest place hitters'
in the business and gets most of his
singles by dumping the ball just over
the infield where he sees an opening.

GOLF MATCH
DECLARED OFF

The medal play, which was to have
taken place at the links of the Coun-
try Club on the morning of Thanks
giving day, has been declared off.
This action was forced on the greens
committee by the bad condition Of the
grounds, caused by the heavy rains of
the last few days. The first and sec
ond holes. especially. were wet and
in so soft a condition that play would
not only be almost impossible, but
would put the green's in bad condition

MARINE

The steamer James Makee, belonging
to the Miller Salvage Company which
is ashore on Molokai. seems to be al
most certain 10 prove a total loss. She
IS in an extremely bad position and is
pounding constantly on the bottom, with
little hope of being pulled off. Cap
tain George Townsend. who is In com
mand OF the little steamer, is still
with her but her engineers and crew
returned TO this city last Sunday on
the Iwalani
The James Makee was sent to MolO-
kaI to paint and make other repairs
10 government buoys in that section
and IN attempting to enter the harbor
at hamalo, Melokai, ran on the reef.
The accident was caused through the
steering gear becoming disabled, just
as the steamer was entering the chan
mel and the strong wind that was blow
ing at the time drove her on the outer
reef.
Anchors were thrown out at once,
but they failed TO hold and the vessel,
in spite of all the efforts that were
made, was driven ever the reef into
a deep pocket. OF water about two hun
bred yards in width. Still more at
tempts were made to hold her in this
position, but in vain, and she was
driven over a second reef and is still
lying in this position. She is resting
on an even keel, but pounding, with
the strong wind that always prevails
at kamaIo at this season.
Those who have seen her position,
and who know the coast in that vicin-
ity, say that she has little chance to
get out, as she must be kedged over
both reefs before reaching the open
water. Another difficulty in the way
of salving the steamer, is that her posi-
tion is such, -that il is impossible for
vessel to get close enough to pull on
her with effect.
The James Makee formerly. belonged
to the Inter-Island Steam Navigation
Company and was sold to the Miller
Salvage Company shortly aftef the
wreck of the Manchuria. She has been
used since for such work as she was
doing when wrecked and for laying of
buoys in these islands, under the in
structions of the lighthouse board. Be
ing of light draft, she could go safely
into shallow water. where it would be
impossible for a larger vessel and has
been of great service here.N In the alb
senee of the Oceanic Company tug
Intrepid. she has been used to some
slight extent in towing vessels IN and
out of this harbor.

T. x, 4. LINE HARD, UP.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-Japanese
steamship companies are suffering from
overinfiation. There is an excess OF
bottoms over the business that is OF
fered. and several of the companies
seem to be on the verge of collapse.
Even the Togo Kisen Katsha and the
Nippon Yusen Kaisha are feeling the
pinch and they are trying to CONSOLE
date.
Consul General Miller of Yokohama
sends a report to the state department,
quoting the Japan Chronicle, which
takes a gloomy view of the situation.
After telling about the collapse OF the
proposed merger of steamship COM
panfes into one concern, to be known
as the Japan Steamship Company, the
Japan Chronicle says:
THE working of even the more
prominent steamship companies, such
as the Osaka Shoren Kaisha, Nippon
Yusen Kaisha and Togo Kisen Kaisha,
is found to be very unsatisfactory. 1t
is found that the working of the Osaka
Shoren Kaisha, for the last two per-
iods, and the Nippon Yusen kaisha
and the Togo Kisen Kaisha for the
last business period, has resulted in
some loss, and it is feared that the re-
suit may be the same for the present
period
