If you have a pain in your back, you

CHINESE RIVALS
ON DIAMOND

One of the most interesting baseball
contests in the Riverside Leagues
schedule, will take place at Aala Park
today when the two Chinese teams
meet The Chinese Alohas and the
Chinese A. c.. will fight to a finish.
These teams are rivals and the game
to be played today will be watched
with great interest by the Chinese COM
munity.
1t is stated that Chi Bui, the south
paw of the C. A. c., who has always
played behind the stick, will take a
turn in the box in this game. Chi Bull
is no doubt one of the best Chinese
ball players in this country and his
performance will be watched with in
terest. Chas. Achi Jr. will wear the
mask if Bui goes in the pitchers box.
On the other hand, English, a pitch
er who puzzled some of the best bat
tiers of the Kaalas last Sunday. will
do the slab work for the Alohas. Eng
lish has a peculiar way of twirling the
ball and is regarded as a conner.
The second contest. between the Nip
pom team and the Palamas, the cham
pions of last season, will lack nothing
in the way of first-cIas baseball. The
Japanese nine this year, is a strong
combination and can give any team a
good rub.
The batteries in this game will be Es-
pinda and Clement, Palamas: Flores
Togo and Kaipo Oyama, japanese A. c.
Both of these two games will be UNI
pired by Bert Bower of the senior
league. Bower was recently elected
official umpire of this league

w Tin Chong, who took leading
part in the reorganization Of the Chi
nese Aloha Club last year, when that
club was about to disband, has handed
in his resignation as secretary. Chong
has held that position for two years
and has done a good deal in the way
of putting that club on its feet.
In resigning, he wrote to President
John Akana, of the Chinese Alohas,
that he will not be able to spare the
necessary time for the clubs interest.
as he has been elected secretary of the
Riverside League for another year.
which, with the advertising work Of
that league, will take nearly all OF his
spare time
The AIohas will hold a regular
monthly meeting at their hall this
evening and it is expected that a new
secretary will be elected.
V. Ayau, who is graduate Of the
st. Louis College and the crack short
stop of the Chinese AlOhas' baseball
team in the Riyer2ide League, will
probably be elected to fill the vacancy
Ayau is a hard worker and would make
a good secretary.

Hamauku came in. Miller flew out to

note when young man. He did most
things in the line, of sport and did
them well.
His record round the bases was 13h

Twenty-Five years ago he boxed and
wrestled and was able to heel his own

In baseball he has played every po-
stion except that of catcher. and for
ten years was active on the diamond

Nine and a half years ago. when he
first came to Hawaii, he used to hop

GIVE Us GOOD ROADS.

The rapid development of the Pacific
northwest brings the problem of cheap
transportation rapidly to the fore, and
the best thought in the country is now
engaged in solving this problem.
There are many projects now on
foot. projects which mean much to the
country and which involve the eNpen-
diture of vast sums of money. These
include the open river proposition
and the various electric lines now be-
ing considered
But right here at home. in our own
county the question of making trans
poTtatiOn easier and therefore cheaper
can be in a measure solved with but
little cost to the taxpayers, and that is
by strawing the roads.
The bad feature of the country roads
in Walla Walla county is that in the
summer they are dusty and in the win
ter they are muddy. Every farmer and
every city man who gets out into the
country occasionally-and they all do
know what a dusty or a muddy road
means. not only in discomfort but in
actual money.
Cover the roads with straw, every
road in the county, and travel will be
not only more comfortable but much
cheaper.
II is worth While.
