DOUBLE HEADER
AT BASEBALL PARK
Two Fast Ball Games
BY Riverside Teams
Tomorrow

At $3.50 u. IN. tomorrow the Chi
nese Alohas Jr. will face the Asahi
4. G. in the first game of baseball at
Aala Park under the auspices of the
Riverside Junior League. This will
lie a game worth anybody's time to
see. The Sons of Nippon are good
collection of ball-players and promise
to give the Chinese team a hard
fight. j. Aiona, who is getting pop
ular as a Junior league pitcher, will
do the twirling work for the Alohas,
and Tetsuji will be on the opposing
side.
In the second game, the Oriental
A. c., under the captaincy of II. Koon
Chew, formerly of the Chinese Alo-
Las, will meet the Sweet Violet \.
G. This game should be interesting
from start to end, as both teams
have some fast baseball men. The
Violets have shown themselves as
good players; last Sunday they gave
the Chinese Alohas hard fight.
AS everybody is welcome to see
these games, good crowd will be on
hand. President Kelekolio of the
league is confident that two of these
games will be fast ball, so everybody
can be sure Of good time.

Samurai and beloved of all, grasped
his bat as If II were the twO-handcd
sword of his ancestors. Alas! his
honorable legs were not winged and
the ball beat him to the first rice
lag.
mo score was made by either of
TIE honorable sides, though they
hewed holes in the atmosphere like
foresters. In the fifth inning the
gods smiled on Honolulu and the
team scored one honorable run: then
the gods laughed while the honorable
Kcio boys piled up three tallies.
"Keio's 1000 rooters then drew in
their honorable breaths with pleas

'Skidoo, doc, doc, for Honolulu, Raj

an American present said this was
what the boys meant.
"In the eighth the heaven born
from Honolulu tied the score. The

TO promote road race from Jack

part of the 400 miles the contestants
will have to fight their way through

HONOLULU GETS
UNIQUE WRITEUp

TOXIC, Japan, Nov. baseball
is as popular in Japan as 1t is in the
United States, and when the Homo
lulu team played Keio University the
game was great function, attended
by representatives of the Imperial
Court, the Diplomatic Corps, officers
of the army and navy and some TO-
900 others.
The crowd lined the bleachers
around the field. More than two
thirds wore European dress, though
no more than hundred Europeans
and Americans were present. The
crowd was typically japanese, con-
tanning all classes, from rickshaw
Een to courtiers, but no women.
The athletic field at Keio Univer-
sity is several miles from the center
OF Toxic, and is reached through
miles of streets, with their bird-cage
houses, temples and shrines, grave
yards and parks. The entrance is
guarded by great arch of evergreen,
across which in flaming colors is the
English word, Welcome" done in
huge chrysanthemums.
The field is rs large as any big
league park, with a bamboo fence
surrounding 1t, over which the YER
Gure of pine, palm and bamboo can
be seen. Japan's weather Is such that
the game can be played the year
round, which certainly is fact cal
culated to make the big league mag
mates of the United States jealous.
On this occasion the imperial band
played "Bedelia," THE Stars and
Stripes Forever" and The Little Ton
Qulne." 1t was the one false note.
The music sounded like a kennel of
pups with the hydro2hobia, kioodel-
ing their death song.
The ground was without grass, hut
rollea as smooth as a tennis court.
The players used English terms, and
t was positively weird to hear Il Jap
anese crowd shout: Good eye!"
You're the candy" Line 'em QUIT"
But they do 1t, and the japanese UNI
rire says, "Stlike One;" Two bowl, "
in manner that would turn Silk
IU'Loughlin green.
The college yell of Keio is "Rah!
Rah! Rah! Keio." Not a banzai was
heard, but there was as much hand
Clapping and irhrticulate yelling as
at home. There was no rowdyism,
dirty ball or disrespect to the jumps.
Baseball in Japan is baseball with
the rowdy part kept out.

some swatting of the sphere, so char

there was nothing to be desired.

A liberal translation, condensed, of
the account of the game given in To-

SPUNKS OF SPORT

The proposition to raise $4,000 to
defray the expenses of an American
team to London for the Olympic
games next July is meeting with
splendid success, and It is expected
the sum required will be available
long before the team Is chosen. All
the amateurs are satisfied with the
project to hold try-out meets in the
East and West in order to seleCC the
best talent in the country, and de-
clare this is the best method by
which a thoroughly representative
team can be formed.

Rumors of various deals in play
ers in the big leagues have been n.y.
ing thick and fast since the baseball
season closed, and, as usual, some of
these will be closed during the week.
Among some of the reforms which
President Pulliam OF the Nationals
rut forward will be the doing away
with seven-inning games and the
elimination of bargain counter" con
tests--that Is, two games for one adj
mission. All the clubs, 1t is said, are
with Pulliam in his stand against
bargain" baseball The limiting of
clubs TO carry but eighteen players
again will be proposed, and 1t is pos
sible a rule will be introduced with
the object of preventing any club
from reserying more than twenty-five
players. That harmony exists in both
organizations Is indicated by the
fact that there will be no opposition
to the recollection of Messrs. Pulliam
and Johnson as the heads of the Ma
tional and American Leagues respect

EVERYBODY WORKS BUT FATHER.

Regarding the big attraction
coming to the Grand Opera House
Saturday night, January 80, the
Dallas News of January II says:
Everybody Works but Father"
is a misnomer for the musical COM
edy produced at the Dallas Opera
House last night, for father"
worked overtime.
If the play may be Judged by the
, laughter that greeted fathers slips
and trips. verbal and otherwise, it
is what the program says il is, "a
musical comedy SUCCESS.
The opening number is little
disappointing, but Miss Claire At
kinson a" Cissy Devine" redeems il
and from that on the comedy gains
in good scenic effects and comical-
ity.
Father" an insurance agent,
who falls into soft place as Rose 5
father, without any will of his own,
is the center of fun through the two
acts, interspersed with songs, dane
es and unique scenic effects.
lsy, busy waiter, so ugly that
his face Seems to hurt him, puts the
audience into a good humor at his
first appearance and into fits of
laughter after he gets started.
Miss Katheryn b. Roberts as
Rose is good to look upon and she
makes her part, that might easily
be tiresome, the most genuinely en-
joyable feature of the play. The
character of Arnold Lovelorn, so
we'll taken by Arthur Carlston, Is q
serio-comic one and comes in strong
in the second act as the Count, who
wins Rose, who wants money but
doesn't want love.
Reggie Noodles is dapper little
Englishman, American enough tc
be liked by the audience as we'll as
by Cissy.
The plot of the play is as light a:
the music and full of laughter pro
voking situations. "I'll bet yor
can't tie your shoe-string without
saying OUCH" would move
chronic dyspeptic to laughter and
the healthy audience last nigh
gave full rein to its appreciation Of
the ridiculous absurdity.
The songs were catchy and some
of them full of melody. "ShiT

and so strengthen his canvass by the
impressive force of numbers. The
leader of one district gave a days hol-
iday to his constituency the other day,
and there were gathered together 20
900 persons, men, women and chill
dren, mostly children. There were ice
cream and cake for the little ones. and
beer, sandwiches and other induce
ments for the parents. Each May and
June there are monster parades of
children to Central park, where an
outing is had on the grass under the
trees. Prizes are given for victors in
the games, and the political leader
who stands the expense provides a
