announced his intention of looking
up the best boxers of the Fleet, with

coon rs they get on the ground.
He has quite a number of the lio-
nolulu flstic talent already on his

acquisition Is certainly Young Nell

here recently with Rafferty, of the
U. S. $. Alabama. He also has the

This trust has had an unquenchahle thirst for the accumulation of goals and last night was only a repetition of the mighty thirst.

 The stock of this association received decided lift last night, for five con secutive goals found their course into tho cage through the work of this squad.

There was Gardner tc account for Our sturdy halfback simply couldn't let the pill reach Sut- ton, and with determined stand check ed the progress of the ball throughout the evening while Sutton at goal had tc content himself with booting the bal when the pill approached in his vicin- ity.
