GOOD BASEBALL
IS IN SIGHT
Schedule of Kei0 and Santa
Clara Games Pleasing
to Fans.

On Tuesday next the Keio baseball
team are due to arrive at this hos
pitable burgh from Japan and the fol-
lowing day the Santa Clara baseball
team should also disembark from the
California packet; these teams come
to do battle with the local teams for
the blue ribbon of the midpaciic isles.
On the 18th inst. the first two games
viii be played followed on Sunday the
10Th by two others and thereafter on
each Saturday and Sunday to and in
Guiding the 9th of August two games
will be played In all 20 games viii
be played and a treat is in store for
all lovers of the great game.
The japanese are greatly enthused
and are purchasing tickets for the
tournament; they are practising base
ball yells; emulating the example of
their Western brothers and will be
heard from when the situation calls
for it. 1t goes without saying that
the local boys will have the support
of the people of Honolulu in this re-
gard and that enthusiasm for the local
teams will not be lacking.
1t is fortunate thing that the
additional stand erected by Eben Low
was taken over by the baseball trus-
tees, as otherwise there would be sad
lack of accommodation for the crowds
that will attend. As it is the crowds
will be so great that standing room
will be at a premium during each
game.
The first eight games will be be-
tween the four local teams and the
Santa Claras and Keios, each of the
local teams playing one game with each
OF, the strangers. After these games
are played the Keios and Santa Claras
will play together and picked nine
from the four local teams will play
two games with the best that the fleet
can muster These games viii con-
sumo three weeks and the following
two weeks the locals will again bat
tie with the boys from Nippon and
California.
The games viii be much more inter
esting than the series played with the
Spaldings. The teams viii be more
evenly matched and there will be
greater variety. Each local team will
play its regular lineup. thus ensuring
better team play and team pride will
ensure the best that is in each man,
being brought out.
All those that want to see this Sc
ries should get their seats at once.
The box plan is now open at the Ha-
waiian News Co., Alexander Young
Building, Bishop street.

The Japanese whalesman Is one Of
the strangest and most fascinating Of
the many weird characters To be found
among the people Of this bizarre race;
and the whaling industry, which IA
carried on very extensively III Japanese
waters, furnishes many tale Of he
roic adventure, not infrequently fraught
with disaster. Among the various fo-
talities that yearly occur through mis-
fortune or accident, in this dangerous
occupation, there Is perhaps no single
case that can Bel attributed To SO ex.
traordinary a cause as that which re-
Gently resulted in the death Of several
OF the men; and il is wonder that
even one survived To tell the tale.
On the 10th 81 last November d large
whale was sighted by the lookouts on
the high hills OH the coast Of Uisan in
Corea, and the crews III the boats, anx-
iously waiting below, were signalled to
proceed to the attack. With wild yo-
alterations the little brown men manned
their boats. got ready their gear and
hurried in great excitement toward the
direction indicated. After some ardu-
GUS and intricate nanoeuyring the mon
ster was finally surrounded by the
nets shells and harpoons being fired in-
to his huge body in the hope Of staying
mis- frantic efforts to escape. As the
great fish ultimately began to weaken
wide gashes were cut in his tough skin
Through which were passed strong ropes
by which lie was fastened to the boats,
lest after death his body should sink
Ind be lost. And thus he was towed tri-
umphantly to shore amid the yells Of
His captors, who softened their tones
only now and then TO cry sJoraku,

tom when whale Is dying.
As the tide went down, the body Of
the deviation of the deep lay prone,
sixty feet along the shore. Then the
real excitement begun; for the huge
carcass had TO be cut up and removed
before the return Of the water.
The process OF dividing up the big
carcass had thus been going on salts
factoriIy for some time, when suddenly
there was heard sharp and awful
sound, like tile bursting of 4 bomb. In

but still living, lay moaning IN agony

The cause of the disaster, though
easy to determine, Is yet unique in the

Fighting The Ruinous Iron Rust.

a bitter and disgnsted wall has gone
up from the farmers& of the United
States in regard to the miserable quail
ity of the wire fence they are obliged
IL use. So writes Rene Bache III the
Technical World Magazine for June
They can hardly get along without
il, but it IS most unsatisfactory by
reason Of the rapidity with which it il
destroyed by rust. OF course, this
means to them much trouble and ex-
pense and they have been making 4
good deal Of row about the matter,
even appealing to the government for
help.
In response to this agitation, the Sec
fetary of agriculture, Mr.. James Wilson
some time ago, ordered a special inyes-
tigation To BE made, the task being
handed over to Dr. ATierton S. Cush-
man. Since then the inquiry has been
earnestly pushed, and many things have
been learned which had not previously
been suspected especially In relation
20 the true cause Of the rusting of iron
and steele, which Is very different from
what has always been popularity sup.
posed. The writer's goes on to describe
the methods adopted for improving
the quality Of wire and for guarding
against rust.
