stand officially for some time to come.
The main feature was the perform

LOVE-FEAST HAS
TAKEN PLACE

In regard to the trouble which has
occurred between Jess Woods. who has
charge of bringing down the team Of
ball players from the Coast, and the
St. Louis team, a meeting was held
yesterday between the two principals,
Woods and Captain Gleason, and
everything arranged in a most salts
factory manner. The letters given be-
low explain the matter to a certain
extent but the Advertiser desires to
state that the story of Sunday was
correct in each particular, according
to the statement made by Gleason at
the time Since that he has expert
enced a change Of heart:

Editor Advertiser: Pat Gleason came

BARNEY JOYS
PET BALLOON

There is an ancient saying that
while life exists there is plenty of
hope. so the Seals can console them
selves with a few barrels Of the latter
ingredient. Hope has made good in
many leagues outside Of baseball. and
1t may do here; but the simple fact
that the Angels went down the line
and slipped a double header over yes
terday would indicate that the PEN
nant aspirations OF our boys are due
for ride in that balloon that Barney
Joy hires so frequently for his ex-
cursion trips. The loyal fans. who
have been neglecting their business to
root for the native brigade, figured not
only on hope, but on a tangible chance
for the pennant up to yesterday after
noon. According TO dope the Seals had
it in their power to give the Angels
double trimming yesterday: but for
some reason the dope sheet read upside
down-the chance fed, and there was
nothing left but hope.
The regular Sunday dish. Barney Joy
a la balloon, was down on the official
me and you card when the clock
struck $50 yesterday afternoon. The
inevitable occurred, and the Angels
had theirs in plenty by the fifth inning.
Then the poi lad took walk and sat

WILL. DEFEND
AMERICA CUP

BRISTOL, r. L. Sept. 14.-Nathaniel
G. Herreschoff, the designer Of the cup
defenders of the last fourteen years,
refused today to comment upon the
proposed race next year, but it is
known that he has been in conference
with former Commodore +. =, Morgan
of the New York yacht club, who man
aged the Columbia in 1901, and with
G. oliver Iselin, who had charge OF the
Vigilant in 1899 and the Reliance in
1908. IseIin was in Bristol last week
and was closeted with Herreschom for
more than an hour.
From an authoritative source IL has
been learned that Herreschoff has COM
pleted preliminary designs for a 80 foot
sloop yacht, according TO the so-cailed
universal rule It is said that this
yacht is built on the lines of, but Is
larger than, the Avenger, the boat
which has been SO successful during
the last year. The Avenger won all
the principal races in the cruise OF the
Eastern Yacht club to Bar Harbor and
defeated all competitors in the impor-
tant runs of the New York yacht cluo
last month. The Avenger Is In the
81 foot class and is looked upon as an
ideal boat, especially in light weather

MACFARLANE CUP
ON NEXT SUNDAY
Second Glass Yacht Race to
Be Held Outside the
Harb0r.

Ihe first contest for the MacfarIane
Cup win be held under the auspices
of the Hawaii Yacht Club next Sun
day. The race will be for the second
class yachts and it is expected that
there will be either six or seven en-
tries. The contest on Regatta Day
was spoiled TO a certain extent by the
fact that the Princess, one of the
eleverest yachts of her size in the har-
Dor. was capsized shortly after the
race was started.
The Maefarlane Cup is the gift of
Fred w. Macfarlane of this city. who
has done much to help the sport in
every way. The course which will be
used viii be new one to the yachts
men of the city and should prove TO
be very satisfactory. The start will
be off the Myrtle clubhouse and the
vessels win sail out the channel and
around a buoy anchored off Waikiki,
opposite the Moana Hotel They will
then go back to Pearl Harbor and
around the outer buoy, returning to
the starting point. The chief adyan-
tage of. tthe Course lies in the fact
that not only can the yachts be seen
by those who are at the start, but
they may also be seen rounding the
buoy off the Moana Hotel, by all who
are bathing there in the morning
Having races where they can be seen
by the public will do much to interest
the non-yachtsmen in the best of
sports

Boston Has Signed Negro Pitcher
From Island.
HE MAY NOT LINGER LONG.
Once Before in History of the National
League a CoIored Player Attempted
to Play with Beantown Club, but
other Players Made 1t So Unpleas-
ant for Him that He Quit.
BOSTON. Mass, Sept. THE an
nouncement that the Boston National
League club has signed a coIored
pitcher for next season has already
started a little zephyr along the base-
ball circuit which is liable to develop
into hurricane before Manager Ten
ney solves the hotel and dining-car
problem which stares him in the face.
The fact that baseball is strictly an
American game has caused a general
resentment against foreigners, except
the Irish and Germans. by players as
well as the public. The players viii
take a man of foreign parentage into
the fold with all the welcome that the
game offers. but as rule they make
that he usually backs out with good
grace after the first whirl around the
circuit. These affairs have been
smoothed over by diplomatic mana
gers, but the employment of this negro
from Honolulu is like a match in a
powder magazine.
BOSTON TRIED 1T BEFORE.
Some ten years or more ago the
same thing was tried in the National
League, but the colored second base
man who was with Boston, found it so
uncongenia1 that he had to quit. The
negro infielder who played with Har-
ward for several years and then signed
a contract in the New England
League, lasted a little more than a
month. Although Joy is a Malay and
not a negro, he is as dark as an
Ethiopian.
Throughout the circuit of the two
leagues the ball clubs stop at hotels
which have long since drawn the color
line, and therein Manager Tenney is
going to have his first trouble. Players
always go in pairs, and are SO allotted
TO their rooms, and therein comes an
other bump. Barney Joy fthat is the
name of the new pitcher) will have a
hard road to travel when it comes. TO
finding a roommate.
Joy managed to get along for while
in Frisco, and 1t may be that Tenney
got some information out there; but
just how he managed it around the
hotels is an interesting experience yet
untold
They say Joy is cracking good
pitcher, and is a native-born Hawai-
ian. b11t unless he can get the aid and
esteem of his team mates his career
in the major league is likely to be a
sad affair.

ceeds derived from games played be-
tween Honolulu teams and fleet teams.
in which J. L. Woods was accused of
unfairness, / would say, that whole
trouble arose through a. misunder-
standing between J. F. Soper and the
undersigned. I have been wrongly
quoted by the newspapers in regard to
the $40 given the sailor team. I de-
sired TO state that this money should
have come out of Sundays receipts
and not out of Tuesdays money.

that these games were played to fat
ten Woods personal purse. I under
stood that the money that went to
Woods was to be used to help defray
the expenses of the Coast team. The
whole matter has now been arranged
satisfactorily TO all parties concerned.
