to their tally. Lyman reached first
safely, Henderson scared to Fukuda
but, when Hampton came up, Lyman
was on the alert, stole second and then
took third on a bad error by Higo.
Hampton did the right thing with a
clean two-bagger which put Lyman in.
Burns famed but with two out Hamp-
ton reached home on Sasaki Is error
and Bruins reached second .on another
mistake by Murakami. Hart came up
and scored. Bruins was out at second.
AT the end of the fifth inning the score
/ was 4 to 0.
The sixth gave notable instance of
Hart IS peculiar method. II would fan
a couple of men out in quick succession
and then lazily walk one Just as a
teaser. Sasaki was the victim in this
instance. He saw visions of reaching
home when he made first so easily, but
Hart was only playing with him and he
got not so much as a start towards
second before his side was out.
Burns scored again for the Punahous
in the seventh and Hampton would
probably have scored if he had not
been too anxious to reach second
Bruins got as far as third but both
Warren and Lowrey famed and he had
no chance to get home.
In the eighth Fukuda took brace
and disposed of Castle, Lyman and
Henderson in short order. Then it was
that little Abe came up with that edo
and dare look on his face. Hart sent
in swift one and Abe caught it just
right. 1t flew oct between center and
left field and the batter galloped joy
ously to first while the Japanese spec.
tators gave the first confident cheer of
the afternoon. But there was bitter
disappointmenfin store for them. Eth
err Albright had no indicator, or every
body around was greatly mistaken for,
when it seemed that he should have
sent Higo to first, he called three balls
and Higo skied out on the next one
There was nothing exciting about
the ninth period until the end when
Kamevama got as far rs third and It
looked as though the Japs might yet
score, but Fukuda famed and the
game was over.

GREAT HIT TING BEE
BY ALL-HAWA||ANS
IN eleventh INNING
cFrom MONDAYS Advertiser,

which same bunt sent Kanki home, via
Sam Chillingworth s error. Sasaki and
0hashi both stole bases, and then Flu.
kuda did some more bunting which,
with VIII Chillingworth s error, put
0hashi over. Koyama made neat
base-hit which gave Sasaki time to
reach the plate, and the Keios had
scored the only three runs of the game
for their side.
Sam Chillingworth sacrificed very
neatly in the second and landed Cos.
tello, also putting Davis at third. Then
Abe dropped Joe Fernandez sky
scraper, and Davis scored. This made
the score to in favor of the Japs.
VIII Chillingworth did little better
in the second inning, and he famed
two in the third, but, he evidently did
not feel up to snuff, for he was re.
placed by Leslie in the fourth.
The Diamonds scored two more in
the fourth, both of them off Eddie 8
hit to left-feld about which the dispute
arose. From then to the seventh there
was no more scoring. Eddie Fernandez
came in on a wild pitch in this period,
and Joe Fernandez chalked up another
tally in the eighth, making the score 9
to 3.
-Koyama had been pitching steady
game until the ninth, when he lost his
grip and started in by walking two
men. This gave the sparklers chance
and they began to score. Leslie ran in
from second on Higo's error, and then
Costello came in on a neat steal to
third and run in on hit. Sam Chill
lingworth was Mt second and Davis Mt
the bat when Fukuda and Higo both
made wild throws. Sam romped in and
Davis reached third, whence he had no
difficulty in reaching the plate ON
Kanki's error. This made the score 10
to 3, and the Keios were unable to do
anything in the second half Of the in
ming.

SPORTING NOTES
FROM MAUI

After the Keios visit Hilo next
month, it is expected that they will
stop in Maui for few days and yiSy
games with teams picked from the
league on the island. The Morning
Stars, Healanis, Kahuluis, Waikapus
and llimas will contribute representa-.
tives to the picked teams and some
good baseball should result.
Arrangements are on foot to have
the Kauai Polo Term visit Maui and

second on clever steal after walking
to first: But Mackenzie and Vannatta
could do nothing for him, and the
Santa Claras came up for that wonder

Lappin walked and NJ. Shafer sent
him to second with a neat safety. Then
up came Kennedy with fire in his eye,
and he swatted the first ball bang into
the right-feid fence. This took him to
third and sent both Lappin and Shafer
home. Art Shafer took the bat and
then Jones thought he would catch
Kennedy off third. But he threw wild
ly and Kennedy ran in. Fern missed
Art Is skyscraper, and then Reuter-
walked him. Peter went out at first,
but not before Art Shafer had reach
ed second. Art then stole third and
romped home on Byrnes' swat. This
put the score 4 TO o.
The interest dropped to zero in the
sleepy second, but rose trife in the
third, when Reuter- scored for the Rams
after clever steal to third and reg
ular bull rush down the home stretch.
Art Shafer scored again in the third,
after being sent to second and third
by two very pretty sacrifices by Peter
and Byrnes, respectively. This left the
score to /.

~ Iolulu today who should be sorry that
they did not go out to Ball Park yes
Yterday, for they missed one of the
finest exhibitions of pitching ever seen
in the Islands.
There was rather slim youth who
stood in the box, wound his left arm
through the air and then allowed the
ball to leave his hand with such force
and accuracy that the japanese bats
were entirely unable to locate it. His
\ name is Hart, and he pitched for the
lPunahous against the Keios. Not one
,eskngle hit could the visitors score until
,ftf4 eighth inning. Then that clever
Abe walked up to the plate, look
II siard through his spectacles, and
led the ball scientifically into cen

he second game, between the Santa
p Tfra and Kamehameha teams, was a
.F. fssaw affair. Dick Reuter- started out

Toys batted him all over the field and

they had scored four runs. For some
X reason Richard was not himself, but it
4 looked like a quotation from Shake
speare in the fifth, for Reuter- pulled
himself together and famed out three
!. men with nine balls, which feat is
4 the equivalent of the cricketer's ''fIat
trick and very much harder to per
form. But this was too good 20 last
and in the eighth inning somebody
started the toboggan and the Califor-
mans quit scoring when they were tired
of running. Four runs in the first in
ming, seven in the eighth and two scat
tered tallies in between made up very
nice score for them, and they seemed
quite willing to stop scoring and allow
the spectators to go home.
There was one very pleasant feature
about the afternoon at the park. There
was the usual number of Japanese pres
}ent and they showed no signs what
Fever of the dreadful "'boycotting' OF
the league which was threatened in the
japanese papers. This proves clearly
that the Japanese people here, who are
sportsmanlike enough to appreciate q
good game of ball, are equally so wheu
it comes to a matter of dispute. 1t is
evident that they accept the recent rul
ing of the board of trustees and appre
ciate the friendly offices which prevail
ed on the Diamond Heads to play the
game again.
The weather was not good, as rain
began to patter down shortly after the
game was called. This caused the of

1.-THE weather may have had something
~ do with the listlessness of the second
5kame. Whereas the first event was fin
kshed in Jig time, the Hams and Col

the game that there was much life in
the play, and even then that saVorcd

the price of fruit land in Oregon. the
prices Of the various fruits and the
adaptabilty OF our state 10 growing
the different kinds. We think Mt the
present time there is hardly per cent
OF the suitable land in Oregon In use
for raising fruit. The tabulation Of
the fruit districts and the fruits that
do well In them will throw light on
this subject, but the world must know
that more fruit land Is lying idle In
this state. particularly I'm the Villa
mette valley. Most all of our foothills
could be successfully put In cultiva-
tion, and upon suitable subsoil the
apple, pear, peach and grapes will
grow to perfection. The Hood and
Rogue river valleys have become fa J.
nous. and the willamette valley will
be second to none when her people
wake up and improve the splendid op-
portunlties which lie before them.
In Large Tracts.
The land here in large tracts which
Is producing goat pastHre and selling
at the present time from 500 to $50 per
acre should be put into suitable fruit
and be worth from five to twelve hun
dred dollars per acre. There is moth
ing worth while in this world which
does not cost an effort There are dif-
ficulties incidental to all progress. and
the fruit grower must be determined
to meet and overcome them. The sue

himself. and If the right spirited tiller
