Great Baseball On The
Tapis At Park
Tomorrow

Tomorrow afternoon, the Keio Uni
versity team will have a chance to see
what 1t can do against Dick Reuters
pitching. The opening contest at
Baseball Park tomorrow is to be be-
tween the Keios and the Rams. And
then the Santa Claras will have an
opportunity to find out II they can do
any more with Hampton's offerings
than they have so far been able to do
with Reuters and Leslie's.
In many respects Dick and Ham
are far and away the strongest pitch
ers I'm the local baseball world, and
may be depended on to keep things
going in favor of Honolulu baseball
players, II they are to go that way.
The Santa Clara men have been
working out, trying to get the ball
located this week, and something Of
a surprise may be found when they
line up tomorrow. The Keios have
also been working out well, and indi-
cations are that the Honolulu fans
will be treated to the best and most
holly contested ball games this Sat-
urday which they have ever witness
ed.
Advance sale OF seats indicate more
record crowds, in spite Of the opposl-
ton of the Wild West Show.

At the Fishmarket this evening u
free athletic exhibition will be given
for men and officers of the Fleet and
for the public In general, the card in
Guiding one tug-of-war, a wrestling
match, and boxing bout. 1t is cal
culated that 100 people can be ac-
commodated in this place. A band is
to be in attendance, and the whole
thing made as attractive and enjoy
able as possible. Besides all this, the
Fishmarket is large and airy, and an
ideal place from the point of view of
the man who sits in the bleechers.
The first event of the evening, to
be held at 1880 o'clock, will be a tug
of-war between an All-America and
a Portuguese team. Then Sailor Rob

McFadden Has Morch
All Ia--POOle Scored
Neat Knockout

Jack McFadden had the best of the
three rounds which his contest with
Sailor Morch went last night at the
Central Athletic Club, but Morch was
not SO decisively knocked out but
that the crowd yelled for more fight
ing. Mae" had the best of 1t from
the first. in what was to have been n
Ground go, the main event of the
evening. He sent Il left straight to
the chin at the close of the second
round, and Morch was on the floor
taking the count when the gong
sounded. McFadden started the third
round fighting hard. He uppercut
Morch continually, and shot home
right and left swings to head and
face. lie got in a singing right
hook to the point and down went
Morch.
Mae" was standing by the ropes
receiving congratulations, and TAFT.
the referee, had quit counting, when
Morch rose to his feet, and put up his
hands TO fight. McFadden whirled
around, but TAFT stepped in and sent
Morch to his corner, on the ground
that he had been on the floor over
ten seconds. and out by all rights.
The men were fighting at 1876,
though both claimed to have the
worst of the weight proposition.
There is no doubt. on the other
hand, that TAFT did the square thing
in stopping the fight then and there,
as Morch was evidently beaten, and
1t would only have prolonged matters
to have had him in. the ring for an
other part of round.
Preliminaries ... ...r.. ...r
In the first preliminary, scheduled
for six rounds, Bill Poole of Fort
Shafter tucked away Red Casey Of
the same place with a right swing
flush to the Jaw. after one minute
and fifteen seconds of fighting. Casey
went off his feet in the first clinch.
Poole presently got home q, hard
right to the heart. He had Casey
groggy with a right and left to the
head, and then-bingo!-it was all
over. ..... u.. ....... ...... ..
The second preliminary a Ground
contest between Joe Cabral and
Young Heine, went the limit, Joe
getting 1t on the decision. In the
first, second, and fourth rounds, the
fight was all Cabral's. He landed al
most all of the clean blows, worrying
Heine continually with a quick left
jab to the face. which had his man
bleeding in the third round. Heine
was stronger in the third, 9Th, and
sixth, but he could not get at his man
well, and when Referee Eddie TAFT
held up Joe's arm as a sign that he
was the winner, the decision was
popular.
The other preliminary, n Ground
go between Mccullough and Stanley,
was given in the sixth round to Nc
Cullough, as he had had his man beat
en- from the first round, but could not
land enough of punch to put away
the durable Stanley. This boy is
gritty enough.

GOOD BOUTS FOR
TOMORROW night
J. SculIy Matches Dixon
And Young Nelson
For 10 Rounds

Tomorrow night at Independence
Hall, Jack Scully, the most popular
of the local fight promoters, will give
a show. in which he will have Dixon,
the colored lightweight phenom Of
the Kansas, in the ropes with Young
Nelson, the durable local boy, who
fought 10-round draw recently with
Rafferty,, the champion scrapper who
was here on the Alabama.
Nelson has shown himself to be Of
the durable type. and glories in close
range work. There will be little
doubt of the outcome IL he can get at
his man, but experience has shown
that the average man on the ships Is
rather too shifty, and the fact that
2-minute rounds are the limit in the
Navy also seems to diminish the
chances of the local man. a...
However, he had the Indian sign
on Rafferty,, who was as good as any
thing In the Fleet at Magdalena. II
Dixon can put 1t on him, 1t is GER
tainty that the negro will be rs good
as anything which has ever been seen
In local ring.
The two are scheduled to go ten
rounds.
A preliminary which promises to
furnish the crowd with great sport is
a Ground event between Young Shar-
key and Wahilani two boys who box
ed such slashing draw recently at
the same hall. They are of the hit
and-take class, and their exhibition
last time was great hit with the
crowd.
Jack further expects to get signed
today. Prendergast, very classy boy
of the New Jersey, who can go with
the best of them, and Huihui, once
champion of the local ring, who is
getting back into harness. This
ought to be great drawing-card. as
all of the fight fans of this city know
lIuihui. and most Of the jack-tars
know Prendergast. The men weigh
1876 pounds. ..' '..
| Jack is today busy getting things
arranged with Lieut.. Weaver.
