SUCCESSFUL BASE STEALERS.

With Good Judgment.

1t is seldom the speedy runner who

were comparatively slow men. The sue
ccSstul base runner makes Il study of the
art 1t is lot tie amount of speed he
has rs much "a the Judgment he displays,
which makes him successful. \ good

finds that Ill twirlerS. no matter how "N-
peri.nccd do something Just before
pitching the bah which, if detected. gives
the base runner Il chance to get Il run

everything. and the next in Importance
is the finish. A player who can throw
his body away from. the bag and still
touch 1t with either his leg or hand is
certain to avoid being touched with the
hall. Such plays are the most difficult for
the umpire to d eide. He must BE- right

THE NEW HOSPITAL

Among matters of the greatest i'm
portance at the Settlement is the new
hospital, the site for which has been
chosen and work is about to begin.
The site is near the sea and near the
Pail, just outside the village of Ka-
laupapa. 1t has splendid drainage, a
good SOIL and is more protected from
the wind than any other spot. The in
stitution includes a general hospital
1l6 by 70 feet, a nursery "a by 20 feet,
and a contagious disease ward 3S by
33a feet. The hospital is designed for
all hospital cases whether due to lep-
rosy or not. 1t is intended that where
leprosy develops so far as to render a
leper helpless he shall be brought to
the hospital and cared for there, in
stead of being left to the care or neg
lect Of kokuas. 1t is intended in this
way eventually to do away with the
kokua system.
The nursery is intended for babes
born of leprous mothers. They are to
be taken from their mothers at birth
so as to prevent the danger of conta7
gion, during the period of infancy and
until they are old enough to be sent
to the homes for non-leprous children
of leprous parents. There are now %
babes in the Settlement under a year
old.
The dispensary is now just complet-
ed. 1t has a commodious dispensing
room; an operating room for serious
operations, and another operating
room for minor operations and dress
ings. 1t is equipped equal to the
Queens Hospital, it is said
The new visitors house provides
means for visitors to see and converse
with their leprous relatives or friends,
but without the possibility of contact.
There are sleeping apartments for vis-
itors compelled by steamer schedule
to remain over.
A new laundry is just being COM
pleted and so is new steam poi fac
