UMPIRE REPLIES
TO ENGINEERS

Sidney Jackson, who apparently was
the umpire in the recent Engineers
Kewalo game, about whose decisions
the former made a kick, left a note at
this Office in which he. quotes Rule So,
Section 8, of the baseball rules. This
refers to man walking when struck
by the ball.
Mr.. Jackson says that the player
did not try to avoid the ball. As
stated in the Advertiser yesterday, it
is up to the umpire to decide this
point. Mr.. Jackson also states that
the ball which he gave as foul was
foul, and that he did not admit that
it was fair when it fell.
Mr.. Jackson had a perfect right to
decide whether the man was entitled
to walk on account of the fairness
of the manner in which the ball struck
him. He also had a perfect right to
decide whether the bail fell fair or
foul. This was stated in yesterdays
Advertiser, and the only argument that
remains, and it is one of those argu-
ments that go on forever, is between
the Engineers and the umpire as to
what the latter said. According to
Mr.. Jackson's statement, both of his
decisions were given absolutely within
his rights. AS to whether the ball ac-
tually was foul or not, this paper, of
course, has nothing whatever to do.

ALL FOUR TEAMS
MAY TIE SERIES

The soccer games on Friday will
bring out more excitement than ever.
If the Males and Y. M. C. A. play a
tie and the Punahous defeat the Dia-
mond Heads, there is a mighty fine
chance for all four teams to be tied at
the end of the series.
DIR. Hand looks a trife blue about
the prospects of his team, but he
states that he hopes to spring sur
prise with three new men. Danlap is
expected in on the Claudine, and, if
he comes, viii play for the reds. Then
there are both Scott and Stevenson,
who have been unable to get away
from business so far, who may very
likely turn out on Friday. With these
additions the Young Men ought to
make it hot for the Males.
Both the Punahous and Diamond
Heads are determined to win the next
game. After the way that these two
teams have bucked up, we ought to
see a mighty battle when they get
together in the first game.
Fast and keen as have been the
games up to now, the Christmas Day
event bids fair to outclass all pre-
vious shows Of the kind.

CHINESE WALK

Tin Chong, the lively one, is already

The great Konihi walking contest,
which will take place at the boys field
on Chinese New Years Day, is receiv-

subject of the dragon flag Prizes are
now coming forward every day from
those who have taken an interest in
this race, and before the end of the
week they will be announced by the
committee in charge.
Sam Hop, who was the first to propose
this race among his subjects, is working
hard to see that the arrangements for
the event will be carried out at their
best, and has added among the commit
tee he has already selected, Mr. Tong
Kau, the Chinese Interpreter of the I'M

now be made out of the following gen

The program will probably be made
out as follows: One race for anyone
who passes the two hundred pound

hundred pound mark, and another below
a hundred pounds, or for any one who
are classed as "thin' men. Of course

ANCIENT sCoNE PALACE.

One of the finest old Scottish resi-
dences is Scone palace, near Perth, the
ancient center of the Pictish capital,
former browning place of the kings of
Scotland, and now the residence of the
Earl of Mansfield, representative of the
ancient family of Stormont
Although the old abbey of Scone was
destroyed several hundred years ago
and the site is now occupied by com
paratively modern building, much of
ancient association has been preserved
and the palace is still noble and ven
cradle looking pile, its dull red castel-
lated towers backed by luxuriant woods
and facing over stretches of rolling
green park, the meeting place of the
Almond and Tay.
The great gallery at Scone, which IS
100 feet long, occupies the place of the
old hall where kings were crowned in
days of yore, the coronation of Charles
II. having taken place there IS 1861
and that of the Chevalier st. George in
the ffteen' Among the valued
relics of the house are the old four
post bed used by James VI, and an
other with hangings of richly wrought
velvet, said to have been the work OF
the fair but Inflated Queen Mary dur
ing her Imprisonment at Lochleyen.
Even of later years ScOne has been
honored by the visits of royalty, her
late majesty Queen Victoria having
paid quite long visit at the palace in
1912. the occasion of her first visit to
Perth, aad again after the death of the
prince consort. The present earl has
done wonders for the palace in the way
of introducing modern improvements,
both within and without, and bringing
the domestic arrangements up to date in
every waV

BURNS ONE AMBITION
IS TO WHIP JOHNSON

Tommy Burns writes from Australia,
October 9, as follows: 81 am writing
this on the train, going sixty miles an
hour, on my way to fill theatrical en-
gagement-four nights for $4,000 and
transportation for TREE. This will make
a total of little over $4,000 l have
earned in Australia up to the date of
the johnson fight, and does not include
the moving pictures or transportation.
So you see this is pretty good for
poor kid starting out with nothing.
Mcintosh, the promoter, is a fine
fellow and honest. l think he is the
greatest promoter the world has ever
known. With purses, pictures and
transportation, it's costing him about
$4,000.
Johnson writes Burns, "will be
here about October 81 He says he is
going to stop me in twelve of the TWEEN.

ALDEN BESSIE, BEWARE OF
GHOSTS!

Since the long, sad race, when the yacht
Hawaii
Came sorrowf lily trailing in last,
With sad-eyed crew of mariners
And a knife stuck into the mast,
The first of the ships to cover that
course
Weighs anchor on Christmas Day
When the Alden Besse, that staunch
old bark,
Sets sail from San Pedro bay.
Oh, what will you see on the ocean
wide,
Ye crew of the gallant bark?
When you follow the trail of our home
made snail,
Beware when the nights are dark,
For hope, when it dies, leaves wrath
to arise,
All grinning and ghoulishly stark.
When the wind blows free Ger the
starboard rail,
And the sails are bellying taut;
When she lists with cant to the quar-
fering slant
Of the wind by the courses caught,
Hold tight to your thumb till it's per-
fectly numb,
And act as though really distraught.
For if any ghost of our murdered hopes
Should hear an exultant cry,
He will haunt the seas till the full, fair
breeze
Dies out as it passes by,
And you II rage and curse or do some
thing worse
AS we did on the yacht Hawaii.

ated material, remarking that the
breaking up Of the seeds brings out
the oil, which is one of it's most valu-
able ingredients. As to the sticky or
saccharine ingredient, Dr. Wilcox said
this is a substitute for starch and is
much better for animals. Saccharine
fodder is of great value. In fact, in
the southern states mules are fed with
molasses by-products.
As to the supply of algaroba beans
DR.. Wilcox says there are practically
two crops per year to be depended up
on, and the yield Of beans is enormous.
Beans are generally collected in gunny-
sacks and each sack weighs about thir-
ty-three pounds. About sixty sacks
make a ton and each ton represents a
value of about $50 the prevailing mar
ket price being ten to twelve and a
half cents bag, the highest price be-
ing fifteen cents. One enterprjslng cat
tie man here has fifteen thousand bags
stored up. and on Kauai one plantation
has about 10000 bags on hand.

MORE SPORTS
OFF FOR HILO
Jockey Ferreira Takes Leaper
With Mystic Name---Davis
in a Hurry.

Another large crowd of sportsmen
boarded the Mauna Kea when she left
the wharf yesterday, all of them bound
for Hilo and the big race meeting. Most
of them were directly connected with
the various stables but some went
merely as horse-lovers out for pleas
ant holiday, with the intention of
spending Christmas with friends in the
rainy city or on the nearby plantations.
Louis Warren was there, on his way
to the track in good time so that he
may oversee the final preparations of
his two crack horses, Bruner and In
digo He has high hopes of Bruner
carrying off the big event, the Mer-
chants Stakes, and will overlook moth
ing that may help his stable to carry
off the honors.
Jack Gibson, the premier rein
handler of the islands, had bunch of
well-wishers to see him off and his
parting words shouted over the rail
were that he was going to take the
Importation round at 2:03 clip.
The importation referred to is. of
course, the PAGER Harry Hurst that was
brought from the Coast to put it over
Waldo j. and the other speedy harness
racers on the islands. If anybody can
get the best speed out of PAGER it
surely is good old Jack who has nerve,
experience and courage.
Jockey Ferreira was there with his
usual chime of bells. He had his big
Ieaper FGuess Coming on board and
smTlingly stated that he was going to
show them something in the way OF
sticking that would make their hair
stand on end. He also said that he
had applied for his California Jockey
Club license and expected to receive it
by the first of the year.
Dick Davis, the Maui hOrseman,
came up on the run at the last moment. :
1t seems that he had some important /!
business to transact in Honolulu and
so took the Mauna Loa which arrived |
In the early morning, did his business |
and just managed to catch the Mauna /
Kea back again to Maui. He will take /
the same boat on to HilO next Tues
day. He is a part owner in Parnell /
and Adion and has high expectations
of what his stable win do at the meet /
ing.
There has been quite a sensation
caused among the horse dopesters in
town, by the Hilo despatch which APP /
peared in Mondays Advertiser. Judg
ing by the time that Waldo J. is re-
ported to have made over three-quar-
tiers of a mile the oldtimer must be
pretty well back to past performance
class and it looks bad for the importa-
ton.
Jim Quinn viii most probably drive
the Oahu champion and there will be
some lively betting on the subject
when the PAGERS line out for the first
heat.
The largest crowd of race-goers will
be on the Mauna Kea next Tuesday
when they will have their last chance
of getting to Hilo in time for the races.
Much disappointment has been express
ed that the excursion was not run as
it means more than a week to take
in the races and a return on a small
boat.
