LEAHlS BEAT
ULUAS INDOORS

There was something doing at the
Y. NJ. C. A. when the Uluas and LeahIs
lined up for the first game in the Sc
ries of indoor baseball last night.
Wherever there was a chance for a
spectator to wedge in, that space was
filled, and the crowd overlooked until
people were craning their necks in at
the doorways to get glimpse of some
of the exciting plays that. were being
vigorously cheered.
The Leahis won the game, but they
had to do it in the last inning and
were way behind up to that period,
when they batted out seven runs and
put their opponents to discontinue, by
10 to II.
The Uluas made goose egg in the
scored for the Leahis in the initial in
ming, and their chances looked good.
But in the third and fourth periods
things began to change, for the Uluas
made six in these two innings and fol-
lowed them with four more in the fifth.
The Leahis were doing some scoring
meanwhile, but not enough to keep up
with the others, and found themselves
handicapped by the absence of one
player At the beginning of the eighth
inning the score stood 10 to s in favor
of the Uluas. The latter went in and
made one run, which gave them good
margin if they could only hold their
opponents down, but this was not to be.
The Leahis came up to bat and be-
gan to make runs one after the other
until they had seven. The Uluas made
a gallant attempt to make the six
necessary for win, but could only
hand out one, and it was not necessary
for the Leahis to go to bat again.
The next game of the series will be
played next Monday evening, and will
be we'll worth going to watch. The
line-ups follow:

N()NEN'S WOES
HONOLULU WOMEN ARE FINDING
RELIEF AT LAST.

1t does seem that women have more
than a fair share of the aches and
pains that afflict humanity: they must
keep up must attend to duties in
spite of constantly aching backs, or
headaches, dizzy spells, bearing-down
pains; they must sUoop over, when to
stoop means torture. They must walk
and bend and work with racking pains
and many aches from kidney ills. Kid
ueys cause more suffering than any
other organ of the body. Keep the
kidneys well and health is easily main
tanned. Read Of a remedy for kidneys
only that helps and cures the kidneys
and is endorsed by people you know.
Mrs. Emma Vieira, of King street,
Honolulu, says; For three or four
years 7 had the misfortune to be af-
f1icted with an aching back. The pain
and discomfort this entailed on me can
be better imagined than described. I
have two children, and 1t was of course
difficult for me to attend to them
while oppressed with suffering. The
way in which I found relief eventually
was by using Doan's Backache Kidney
Pills, procured at the HOLSTER Drug
Co.'s store. They did me a large
amount of good, as I now testify. I
should certainly recommend those who
have backache or any other form of
kidney trouble to try Doan's Backache
Kidney Pills"

OPENING SHOOT
ON THURSDAY

The public shooting competition to
celebrate the opening of the new indoor
shooting range of the N G. H. will be
held on Thanksgiving morning, and it
is open to allcomers. The range is sit
uated on the drillshed lot and the shoot
ing will commence at $3.50 a. IN. and
continue till $3.50 p. m.
The price of one entrance will be
twenty-five cents, and this includes the
use of rifle and sufficient ammunition
for one score. Competitors may shoot
as often as they like to put up fresh
entrance money.
All competitors will be arbitrarily
placed in one of two divisions, A and
B. The range officer will have charge
of this, as he comes pretty near know
ing how different people in Honolulu
can shoot, and those who wish to take
part must take their chance of getting
into the class with the topnotchers.
After the competition is closed the
best score in class A will have first
pick of prizes. Then the best score in
class B will have second choice. Sec
Ond man in class A will take third and
second in class B fourth, and so on
until all the prizes have been taken.
There is a wonderfully long list of
prizes, nearly forty in all, so that there
is chance for everybody to get some
thing. The prizes will be on exhibi-
ton in E. o. Hall & Sons window to-
morrow morning, so that you can 60
round and pick out what you like and
then have the delightful uncertainty
of watching the men ahead of you pick
their choices and make mental bets as
to whether they will take what you
wanted. All the prizes are valuable,
and some especially so. There are some
good chances for family men. Coal and
flour are some of the useful things to
be given as prizes, in no mean guam
tity, either.

Horrigan threw himself back in his

a direct answer he went on with seem
