WAIALEE SCHOOL
STILL WINNING

WAIALEE, May 30.-A very inter-
esting game of baseball, between Wal
aIua and the Waialee schoolboys took
place on the Waialua field on Satur-
day afternoon. The schoolboys won
from their opponents by the close
score of 6 to 4.
Both teams played a very clean
game right through.
Pitcher Frank Duponte of Waialua
pitched a good game until the first
half of the eighth inning, when the
Waialees hammered his ball pretty
badly and he was relieved by j. Teves.
J. Kauhi of Waialee made three

KETCHELL AND
PAPKE MATCH

Stanley Ketchell and Billy Papke
fight ten rounds in Milwaukee on
Thursday and there is a great deal OF
interest being taken in the contest To-
cally.
1t looks like being fight worth
going miles to see. No two men in
the business are so evenly matched as
this pair, and both have the dream"
punch in either hand.
It's simply a matter of which one
will land the most effectively first. The
man who does will prove the winner.
KetcheIl has a numbering right-hand
walIop. and yet he hit Jack Twin time
and time again before he sent him to
the place where the pay checks are
cashed. This only demonstrates how
hard it is TO knock out a game man
who makes up his 1nind TO take all
that is coming to him, as Sullivan
did. In Papke. the Butte wonder meets
a man who can hit every bit as hard
as he can, who is just as game as he
i and as for science there is little
IN choose between them.
Jerry Frederick. the gamest old sport
in Honolulu. is swapping up any odds
against the Papke man.

HAWAII To
SAIL TODAY
Local Yacht to Be Properly
Sent Off on Her Long
Cruise.

The transpacific yacht Hawaii will
sail on her trip to San Pedro at p.
m. today from the foot of Fort street
She took her stores and water aboard
yesterday. On Saturday Lieut.. Carter
of the Z. s. S. Iroquois tested the Ha-
wallis compass and found it to be
true.
The band will be in attendance at
the departure of the Hawaii this after
noon and it is expected that several
of the local yachts will escort the cup
racer to Diamond Head.
The run up will probably be made
in from eighteen to twenty days. The
race will start on July and the con-
testing yachts are expected to arrive
here on or about the sixteerth of the
same month.
According to latest Los Angeles aid
vices the race will be started by no
less a parsonage than President Roose-
welt. The President is expected to send
the competing craft away on their long
cruise, from Washington.
He has conferred with the Western
Union Telegraph Company and found
that he can get an open wire for five
minutes across the continent and have
a direct connection with the committee
steamer anchored off Dead Man
Island, SO that by merely pressing a
button in the White House President
Roosevelt can cause the starting gun
to be fired at IL o'clock noon on indie
pendence Day.
The entries in the race, besides the
Hawaii. will be: Lurline, the winner
of the first transpacific race; Lady
Maude, owned in San Diego; and
Gwendolyn H. owned in Seattle.
San Pedro has made arrangements
for the start of the race to be the
main event of gala day. 1t is expect
ed that thousands of visitors from out
lying towns will flock to the city to see
the yachts dispatched on their LONG
voyage.
The Lurline will represent Los An
geles in the race. The Angel City is
keen on yachting just now and woule
like to see the transpacific contest made
an annual affair.
Beside the prizes offered for the race
by the South Coast Yacht Club there
will be a cup from Sir Thomas Upton

Base Hits

the attraction and both teams were

Marcallino played for the Puns in

his bad ankle.

1t is too bad that Joy cannot keep
especially good and the crowd wants
to see that rather than witness his
foolish tantrums. Barney says that he
will not pay his fine but the chances
are that the league will manage to
struggle along without his services
should he elect not to pungle the five
plunks.

Birds Bout Army Of ocusts.

A battle occurred in Hop Hollow,
near Alton, H., few days ago, such
as has never before been known in
this country. About a month ago the
seventeen-year locusts appeared in
Hop Hollow and drove the feathered
songsters from their nests after a
fierce fight. The birds for days mar
shailed their hosts from the surround
ing country, and one morning at sun
rise swooped down on the hordes of
locusts that were making the woods
ring with their buzzing. The dormant
locusts, not expecting the sudden at
taN1, were slain by the millions. The
Onslaught was fierce and the din of
the forest battle was deafening
Thousands of the sweet songsters.
fatally stung, fell shrieking to the
ground. The locusts were extermi-
mated Many bands of the feathered
warriors returned greatly diminished
in numbers, but those which formerly
had their homes in Hop Hollow are
rebuilding and restoring the forest
to its natural beauty. The birds that
came from other sections to aid in
the battle have returned to their
homes. A good job was done for the
farmers in the destruction of the
locusts, and the value of birds will be
more highly appreciated in that local
ity than ever before.-Utica Press.

Several boxes of luscious looking
strawberries reposed in a window OF
a downtown grocery store Saturday.
fhe price quoted on a sign was sixty
cents a box.
Hully, gee! Name, pipe de

sister as they stopped in front of the
window to view the many things
which were separated from their
grasp by other circumst ances as we'll

We drove for some time, and being
perfectly acquainted with the streets
of Paris, said to the officer, You are

replied, yes; little distance from

prison known as the Bastile. After
passing three bridges we drove into
a courtyard, Leaving the coach was
let into a large room well furnished.
The officer took the commandant
aside, then retired, wishing me a good
night. The latter rang a bell and a
man dressed like a cook, in white
flannel waistcoat, a large apron in
front and white cap over his hair,
entered. He proceeded to search me,
and took away every article on my
person. Meanwhile NJ. St. Sauveur,

entered, and ordered the man 10 pre-

said that the supply of meerschaum
for this industry is becoming low.
and the discovery Of deposits of the
mineral in New Mexico is therefore in
teresting.
Two deposits Of merschaum have
been located in the upper ella river
valley. one about % miles east Of
north Of Silver City, the other at a
mine about u miles northwest Of
Silver City
Douglas B. sterrett, of the United
States geological survey, visited the
mine in October, 1867, a,.z mas pre-
pared report a che deposit there
which has just ten published by the
survey as a part OF an advance chap
ter Of Bulletin No. $40, Contributions
TO Economic Geology. The deposit
lies in the bottom and walls of the
canyon of Bear Greek, occurring in
veins, lenses, seams, and balls in
limestone in both nodular and massive
form. The nodular meerschaum thus
far tested contains iron stains and par
ticles of grit and is inferior to the
meerschaum of Asia Minor. The more
compact, massive material may per-
haps be found free from stains and
.of better quality.
Mr.. Sterrett's report sketches briefly
the geological relations of the depos-
its, describes the mode of occurrence
of the meerschaum, and presents the
results OF chemical and physical tests
and analyses of the mineral.
The pamphlet containing the report
may be had on application to the
director of the survey at Washington.

huential newspapers might seek in
vain for actual place or origin and
the real inspiration of the war-pro-
motive matter supplied them under
various datelines. But such failure
need not make it impossible for the
American people TO block the game
efectually. They can let it be
known that the tools of the conspir-

individuals who may secure tempo

other day rascal was found to have
made small fortune by chopping up
palmleaf fans and selling the stun at
a dollar packet, containing a pinch
or two OF the precious dust--wLich
was said to be the seed of rare ex-
otto flower.
He advertised widely, and numbered
professional florists among his VIC
Tins. True, he disclaimed RESPONSE
bility for the terminating power of
his seed, hut this is a common warn
ing even on the wares of reputable
seedsmen, so that the buyers planted,
watered, and watched with pathetic
zeal until at length an angry lady
laid the swindler by the heels.
Now, farm and flower seed of the
highest quality is costly stuff. So
minute is that of the calceolaria, that
the actual cost of producing the finest
strain exceeds ten times the weight
of the seed in purest gold. Mignon'

yet that of the begonia is at least
sixty times dearer; and liberal al
