Having 1t Practically Sewn Up---Two
New Players.

Nearly an hour after the advertised
time and with the crowd bowling for
the ringing up of the curtain, the Kams
went to bat in their game against the
Diamond Heads. The delay was caused
by the non-arrival of some of the
Kan players and it was well on to
4:30 p. m. when the final innings was
concluded. The second game between
the st. Louis and Punahou was post

Alayed it would have been after six
o'clock before the spectators left the
ground. 1t is distinctly up to the

gate receipts appreciably.

bag for the Rams and showed up we'll
with the stick. H. Chillingworth
handled the initial sack for the Jewels.
He made couple of unfortunate err
rors but showed promise of being a
useful man to the team on some future
occasion.
Costello has gone to work at Pearl

In the first of the ninth Olmos caught
Bill Vannatta in far left field, the ef-
fort being a magnificent one.
The roofing of Jack Doyle was
feature of the game. The way he
caught and held the large, furry ears
of the players and public was a eau
ton. 1t is not too much to say that
he won the game for the Rams. 1t is
rumored that Doyle is writing a base
ball hula which will be rendered at the
ball park during the visit of the fleet.
