sick, and, if he can keep on winning
games and the accompanying eneomi-
ums he may come to like the mainland
better than the little native island
which he left.
But that, of course, is not the base
ball Of yesterdays struggle. The plain
facts, as viewed Internationally, are
that Barney won a well-earned Pitch
ers battle from Ruby Randolph, the
lad whom Oakland traded to Los An
geles for Carnes. Back of him the
team was playing errorless ball. Back
of Randolph the Angels were serving
up the same brand. Barney was
touched up for seven safeties, as
against the five which the Seals gath
cred from Randolph. But Barney had
the secret of keeping 'em scattered
and that's the whole answer, compact
ly put.
The opening inning was notable for
two things: Charley Irwin pulled down
a line drive with his ungloved hand,
making as sensational catch as has
been pulled off this season: and the
Angels tailed their first and only run.
The liner came from the bat of Ber-
nard, first man up. When it left the
stick it looked good for one cushion,
at least, and maybe more. But the
old warhorse stuck out his bare right
hand and pulled it down out of the air,
to the accompaniment of lusty cheer
ing. Barney got a trace of nervous
ness and walked Carlisle. Street, hav-
ing been out of the game for several
days, and not being entirely well yet,
let pitched ball pass him. and Car
Isle advanced peg. Dillon's sacri-
flee advanced him to third and he
scored on Cravath's single to center
field.
The game slipped on from then until
the fourth inning, without the Seals
having been able to hit Randolph safe
". Spencer was the first man to solve
the pink mans spitbaI. He laced out
the leather to center for single.
Wheeler sacrificed, and Spencer scoot-
ed on to third station on Hildebrand's
infield out. Irwin walked and stole
second. Both men had no trouble get

KAUAI BOWLERS
DEFEATED OAHU

In bowling, Kauai has proved supe-
rior to the Oahu athletes. The kegel
Club, of Lihue, rolled the first of thee
matches against the local men or FRI
day night and succeeded IN beaSing
the Oahu team by twenty-nine Plus in
thirty strings. Both teams rolled en-
their own alleys, the Kauai score ar
irving by the w. G. Hall Sunday morn
ing. The total of the Kauai team was
1896, while the Oahu boys made a total
of 4467.
There was a large attendance at the
Kegel Club for the games, many WIS.,
itors being present. Light refresh
ments were served and all were given
a good time. Tom O'Brien and Charles
L. Rhodes, both of Honolulu, officiated
as umpire and pin judge, respectively,
hut there was little need Of this, as
there were no fouls committed by any
of the players.
The Honolulu players are getting into
better condition for the next game and
believe that they can overcome the
lead which Kauai now has. The game
was won for Kauai by the rolling OF
J. j. Hiorth, who, on his last string,
ran up to POI, thus giving his team
the necessary lead.
The scores of the Kauai men were

Austin White Does Fine Werk
in White Rock Trophy
Tournament.

The nineteenth tournament for the
White Rock trophy was held Sunday
at the Haleiwa Hotel links and re-
suited in a tie between T. C. Smith
and c. H. Merriam, with the net score
OF 80. The runner-up, who win receive
a case of White Rock, was Austin
White, the young player who has done
such fine work in the past year. With
handicap CT only three strokes, he
made a net score of 81. having the
best gross score of the day.
The day was perfect for golf, there
being neither wind nor rain to bother
the players, and the links were in mag
nificent condition. Besides the golfers,
a large number of Honolulu people
went down i'm automobiles to take
lunch and enjoy the beautiful trip.
The number of entries for the tour
nament was smaller than it generally
is, on account of the polo game Sat-
urday, which kept many golfers in the
city who would otherwise have COM
peted. The scores were as follows:

STILL KEEPS ON
WINNING STREAK
Barney Gets High Praise From
Ball Critics on the
Coast.

Barney Joy is the ''real warm thing
in San Francisco baseball. He is a
fayorite with the players. with his
manager and, what counts more than
all the rest, with the public. In a
game played on August 3, he did the
Los Angeles team mp brown, TO the
tune of 81, winning his game through
fine control, and using his head at the
time when it was most needed.
1t was the third winning game which
he had pitched inside of week, and
he is at present the idol of the baseball
fans in San Francisco. Since that, ac-
eording to the cable, he has won two
more games and stands well at the
head of the San Francisco men who
take their place on the slab.
The San Francisco Examiner. of
August 10 tells the following story of
the game played the day before in
which "Our Barney" did his work in
the cleanest of shape:
Once again must praise be heaped
high upon the black-thatched head of
Barney JOY, Honolulan. Barney asked
Danny Long to be allowed to pitch in
game, as it was ladies' day.
Danny gave his permission and added
that if Barney would win. he would be
on the card to pitch Sunday afternoon.
Well, Barney won. I'll wager that

where the compatri0ts Of
Barney are wont to gather of a silver

self was after yesterdays game was

WE SHOULD HAVE
YACHT IN RACE
W. 0. Smith Strongly in Favor
OF TranspaCific Boat
for Hawaii.

There are few men in the Territory
who have failed to take some interest
in the building of a yacht which shall
represent Hawaii in the transpacific
race of 1905. The campaign for money
with which the vessel is to be built is
going somewhat slowly at the present
time, many saying, "Well, I am going
to give something for the yacht, but
will wait for a few days" This spirit
is very good and makes it certain that
the vessel will be built, but to have
the money itself on hand or to know
exactly who may be looked to for it,
would be vastly more satisfactory to
the committee.
The plans of the new yacht, together
with the prize won last year by the
Lurline, and the cup which has been
offered by Fred Macfarlane for the
second-class yachts, are on exhibition
in the show window of McInerny Shoe
company, and are attracting a great
deal of notice from the general public.
In speaking of the coming yacht race
and the need of representative yacht
from this Territory. w. o. Smith, Of
this city, made the following state
ment yesterday:
81 am very much in favor of Hawaii
having a representative yacht in the
transpacific race. Aside from the love
of the sport and the desire to win,
there is real merit in the proposition.
From the business point of view 1t
should be a fine thing for the entire
Territory. 1t will help to attract at
tention to the islands and to make
known the fact that the people here
are both enterprising and wideawake.
1t will be sure to be a great aid in
tourists to this Territory.
zone Of the main benefits will be
the Capitalization of interest in the
formed by these islands,
in a way which is outside of personal
and private considerations and also
distinct from the usual public interests.
1t will show that we are not living in
an isolated little community upon an
island in the Pacific, but
are in a wideawake Anglo-Saxon COM
1.-The obtaining of funds for the |
building of a yacht and for defraying |
the expenses of the race should be adj |
yanced in every possible way. 1t is |
a matter in which it is not only to the
interest of a few sportsmen to advance, |
but is one in which all the people Of /
he islands should take personal |
part"
