This woman says that sick women should not fail to try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound as she did.
 Mrs. A. Gregory, of 2355 Lawrence St., Denver, Col, writes to Mrs. Pinkham:
 "I was practically an invalid for six years, on account of female troubles. I underwent an operation by the doctors advice, but in few months I was worse than before. A friend ad- vised Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and it restored me to perfect health, such as I have not enjoyed in many years. Any woman suffering as I did with backache, bearing down pains, and periodic pains, should not fail to use Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compouud.''

AALA LEAGUE
SHAPING AGAIN
Five Mines VIII Battle Again
For the international
Trophy.

Nearly all the teams of the former
Riverside League are now getting ready
for the baseball season of 1908 and a
meeting to reorganize the league will
probably be held next week. Five
teams will form the league again, the
Palama A. c., Chinese A. c., japanese
A. c., Chinese Alohas and the Kaala
A. c. Last year g championship trophy
went to the Palamas, who played five
games with the Chinese team before the
cup was finally won.
This season will find many new faces
on the Aala diamond, as all the clubs
are now signing up new players. Some
of the former players may be seen IN
the senior league in the coming season
and new players will occupy their
places The japanese team, under the
management of K Yasumori, a young
japanese, will be strengthened by few
PLAYERS of Hawaiian blood this year
and Yasumori stated that he expects to
take the cup with this new team. The
Chinese Alohas are also getting into
line. Albert Akana has been elected
captain in place of Ho Yup. 81 am
going to see that we get the cup this
season., Akana stated yesterday. I'VE
will have strong team up and it will
be a credit to the Chinese. - AS far as
may be said now, some good baseball
will be seen this year.
Another matter which is receiving
the attention of the clubs, is who shall
be the officers of the league for this
wear. The records of the officers of last
year are all good and the chances are
that they will all be reelected, with the
exception of Vice-president Marine,
who has Since left for Maui. The other
officers still in this city are: VIM. Van
natta, president; W. Tin Chong, secre-
tary, and Robt. Asam, the treasurer.
While all this talk is going on, the pub
lie hopes that a successful season will
end the season of 1908.

SORE
ABOUT MEET

The much talked of interscholastic
track meet between the high School
and Punahou, which was to take place
this afternoon, is off. Punahou claims
that the Highs are playing the part
of babies, while High School maintains
that Punahou is entirely to blame for
the failure of the meet to materialize.
The situation appears to be, accord
ing to High School informant: To-
ward the close of January, efforts
were made by the Highs to form a
triangular league between the Rams,
Punahou and themselves. Not wishing
TO break the dual league which has
existed for sometime between the Pu-
nahous and herself, Kamehameha
thought best not to enter.
Accordingly, in a meeting held dur
ing the first week of February. ar
tween Punahou and the High School,
were made to come off two weeks be-
fore the inter-island meet. The ques-
ton was raised as to whether The
Alexander Memorial field would be in
fit condition to be used. Doubt was
expressed as to it's being ready in time,
and it was finally decided to use the
Boys Field.
Monday afternoon, Coach Reid of
Punahou announced that in all prob
ability, the meet would have to take
place at the Punahou track, as that
was the place agreed upon. He would
not say anything definitely however in
regard to the place until the next af-
ternoon, when he maintained that the
events must be run at Punahou or not
at all.
Naturally the Highs were sore. They
were certain that the Boys Field was
the place named in the arrangements
and on looking up notes taken at the
meeting where time and place were
discussed, they found that these bore
them out.
However, anxious to meet the Puns,
they asked for a postponement of one
week in order to get acquainted with
the grounds. This was denied. There
fore the meet was called off and the
track events which should have been
pulled off today will take place next
week in the shape of an inter-class
meet between the Highs.

COAST COACH
MAY COME HERE
Jess Woods Springs a Scheme
to Have DOnahue Come
to Honolulu.

"If we take a team to Honolulu, ia
pan, China and Manila this fall we
| have a scheme to boost the gam, at
Honolulu" said Jess Woods to the San
Francisco Bulletin. 1.-THE scheme is
| this: To send Pat Donahue ahead a
! few weeks to whip our boys in shape.
| The Honolulu fans think there is no
tplayer like Donahue. Ever since he
won that game for them against Mike
| Fishers club they have done nothing
, but sing his praises. He was a big
| hit. If Pat went back there and coach
ed the club it would add a lot of in
terest. don't know whether we ct,uld
| get him; he might not want to come,
but if we could it would be a boost
for baseball"
On his way from Honolulu Woods
met a baseball fan who had been in
Manila recently and he reported that
there was q lot of talk there over the
prospective visit of an aIl-star team
next fall. He said that Manila was
one of the hottest centers of Uncle
Sans possessions.
Before I make any arrangements
about a trip through the Orient and
the Philippines I want to see Comis-
key" added Woods. 'He wrote me
about training his club at Honolulu
next year, and I want to talk that
over. 1 will be here when the White
Sox arrive and then I will meet Comis-
key"
Jess Woods came in on the Korea,
continues the Bulletin. He is the man
who imported Mike Fishers stars and
put Honolulu on the baseball map.
Jess is an old California boy who has
made good on the islands. He is at
the head of the biggest bathhouse in
Honolulu, and by far the largest fish
in the sporting puddle There is moth
ing pulled off on the islands but that
he has hand in it. He made the
baseball tour a bowling success and
cleaned up $4,000 at the box Office. Jess
is here on a dual mission. He came
to svisit relatives, who live in the in
terror, and to attend to some baseball
matters. For instance, Reuter- was not
satisfied with the contract that Danny
Long sent him. Danny offered him
1925 a month. Reuter- thinks he is
worth more money, and he delegated
Woods to intercede for him. Reuter-
has a job with the street railroad and
he can live without playing baseball.
AS expected, Boston handed Joy a
misery contract and the big southpaw
fired it back without any signature.
Barney assured Woods he would con-
tinue at his trade before he would
play for the money Boston offered him.
"They are still talking about that
visit of Fishers down my way" said
Woods. "The players made lot of
friends while on the islands, and the
fans would like to see the bunch come
back. There may be something doing
again this fall. I am going to look the
ground over and may make some ar
before I go home. I will
be here several weeks, so 1 have lots
of time to talk business"

To her lover she said
When ne begged her TO wed:
"Aole oe hama wau huhu."
But she has rivals. Note:
The beautiful Liliuolalu;
She's sumner and peace in a pau;
And a big hit she made
In the Floral Parade;
But she wasn't as cute as Kunalu.
Others there are, beyond the pale,
who question the very existence of the
fair one and suspect even her blood
relations of being apocryphaL In three
yearning stanzas this doubt is utter
ed. Listen to the yearn:
0 Cousin Elali and Liliuolalu,
Parade riders and bellies of Oahu;
Now, if you're so cute
And each is a beaut,
Please tell us all where and who are
you.
For we'll each take run DER the Pail

Now, please shout;

If there is such girl as Olalu-
She who rides splendidly with the

Bring her out
With a shout
And relieve the fair Isle of Oahu.
Such is fame. Another writer sheds
light on Lili's past. He says:
The beautiful Liliuolalu
Had married one Billy Pahu;
But he was so coarse
That she got a divorce
Now there's a chance for you.
Another, this one rival, beyond
doubt, discounts all the joyfulness of
the preceding by announcing Liliuo-
lalu's demise.
It's a shame and it makes me feel i'll
To announce the sad death of poor Lii,
But it surely is worse
When l add it was verse;
And it's UP to the poets to foot the
whole bill.
Lille now can never be mated,
For her body is safely cremated.
She is dead. God be thanked!
Let her poets be spanked,
And their verses be now expurgated.

For no maid from the Pail

DEMOCRATIC CAUCUS
 FOR DECEMBER $
Champ Clark Will Probably Be the Party'S House Floor
 Leader.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-A cali has been issued for a caucus of the democratic members of the house on December 5, just two days before con gress opens. It is tLe purpose of this caucus to select a minority leader Ior the couing session. Representative John Sharp Williams of Mississippi resigned the leadership last summer.
 While there have been other names suggested for the place, tnat of Champ Clark. the Lion of Missouri" is on the lips of all the democrats who have come to Washington so far as the successor of Mir. Williams. That Mir Clark will be chosen to lead the dem, ocratic forces on the floor of the house appears certain. He already has been appointed to the all impor- tant committee on rules of the house to take the place made vacant by the resignation of John Sharp Williams At the time this appointment was considered conclusive evidence the mantle of leadership was to fall upon Mir Clark's broad shoulders.
 Like his predecessor, MT. Williams Champ Clark is a fighter, and once the democrats make their plans for tppOSlllS IltS CllclSH VI Gl ttl4 HI VI along the lines desired by the republi- cans, he will lead his forces unswerv- ingly along the path laid cut for them.
 No Plans for Tariff.
 Mir. Clark yesterday said the demo- crats had as yet formulated no plans of action in regard 10 the tarif legis- lation. He said the hearings before the ways and means committee now under way must be completed and the democrats get all possible information regarding the tariff before they would be ready to plan their campaign.
 The cali for the caucus was issued by Representative H. D. Clayton O. Alabama, chairman. What else will be considered at the time of the uem- ocratic caucus other than the election of the minority leader is somewhat problematical. It appears likely that the tariff question will be discussed at length, although the republicans have given out the word that tariff re vision will not be undertaken until the extra session afrer March f. It is probable a number of resolutions defining the stand of the democratic party on the subject of the tarlff will be presented to the caucus, though none of them may be acted upon at that time.
