furnished by the Laniuma Quintet
Club led by Carl F. Rose, until the
wee sma' hours of the morning.
Tuesday the boys spent taking in
the sights in and around Wailuku;
some going as far as Lahaina and
back.
At six O'Clock in the evening the
team, accompanied by representa-
tives of the local athletic associations
left Wailuku for McGregors Landing
in Maui Auto Cos automobiles. At
the landing there were number of
Mauiites who cheered the visitors as
they left in boats to board the Maui
ma Kea. Joe Teves and JOS. Canario
stayed over and took the Claudine
to Honolulu from whence they will
return to Hilo.
The Hilo aggregation one and all
praise in the highest terms the fans
of Maui for the enjoyable time ac-
corded them during their stay here
On the other hand the local fans
feel that they have only done theil
due to a bunch of good, clean sports
as were the Hilo boys. They werC
a gentlemanly lot and are spoker
of by everyone who met and saw
them. The local fair sex thinks
and many have expressed themselvei
in words, that this was the nices
looking bunch of young men eve
landed here. Here's hoping we ma!
hear from them again.

Steamers
Overlooked
Will Bring Hundreds Of Peo-
pie About September.

Honolulu, August 16.-Accord-
ing to the officers of the :. :. Ala
media the accommodation for peo-
pie coming to Honolulu from the
coast will be crowded to the limit
for the next few weeks. 1t seems
that SO many people have booked to
come down from San Francisco to
Hawaii 10y the Alameda on her next
trip that with three in each state
room, the ship has more wishing to
came than she can carry. The same
condition is true of the Lurline,
which sails at about the same time,
and of the Siberia, which arrives
here on August 80.
The rush is due to the increase in
the tourist traffic to some degree
but also to the great number of local
people who are on the Coast and
who wish to return about the first
week in September. Among these
are many school teachers who have
to be back here for their work, but
who wish to make the most of theil
trips and stay on the mainland as
long as possible. Between the three
steamers there should be an increase
of several hundred in the local popu-
lation within week. time.
In addition to this it is stated
that the bookings for the months o.
September and October are nearly
double those of last year at this date
Everything points to a great mum
Der of visitors to Honolulu during
the coming months and it seem.
likely that the hotels will have hare
work to accommodate all who have
planned visits here.

a story about Post office Inspector
Hare coasting from Puuncne to Hal
ku on Il flat car. This is the first
time we have ever heard of any one
coasting up hill We conccde that
the experience, must have been eX-
citing as there is no railroad track
to Haiku as Maliko gulch which lies
between the two places is too for
midable. If Mr.. Hare feat has been
correctly reported it deserves to &C

Harvest Home
Festivities
The Annual Meet Thoroughly
Enjoyed.

The harvest home festivities of the
Hawaiian Commercial and Sugar
Company for the year 1909 given at
Puunene by the management and
the employees of the plantation is
one to be long remember.
From the first Harvest Home
given a number of years ago, when
Hon. II. p Baldwin was manager
of the plantation the residents of
Maui have looked forward to the
Harvest Home us one of the most
pleasant social functions of the year
and each year seems to bring an
improvement over the proceeding
one.
Invitations by the hundred were
sent out to the best people of the
island and many were issued to re-
sidents of other islands and a few to
those who are here for short time
only. All who could took advant-
age OF the opportunity and were
present. Free transportation was
furnished ut the expense of the en-
tertainers and on arrival at the
tennis court of the Puuncne Athletic
Association were made welcome.
The day was given up to tennis.
The best tennis players of Honolulu
with one exception. viii Roth,
were all there and were matched
against Maui's best players.
The playing was brilliant and eX-
citing from the first. - The Maui
members probably never played
better than they did this year but
their opponents were the best that
has yet been on Maui and won by Il
small margin.
A short intcrmission was declared
at noon i'll order to give time for the
serving of an excellent buffet lunch
which had been prepared under the
direction of W Tougher and which
was credit to his skill in this line.
There were all manner of good
things-fried chicken, sandwiches,
salads, cake, iced punch and cold
dishes galore were served by a corps
of competent walters. Arrangements
had been made to accommodate
seven hundred guests. 1t was u
most delightful interlude, the Lani-
una Quintet Club playing appro-
pirate selections throughout
The following is the score by
matches:

Mauis Shut
Out hiIOS
Fans Give HilOiteS Time Of
Their Lives.


lasts of Central Maui have shown
that they appreciate good sport and
that they can be relied upon to do
the right thing by II bunch of visit
ing fans.
The All Hilo baseball team arrived
on Maui by last Friday night $ trip
of the Mauna Kca, were received by
representatives of the local athletic
associations at McGregor's Landing
and escorted to the Maui Hotel where
they stayed while here.
The bunch was made up of the
following players: c. B. Lyman,
Geo. Desha, VIM. Desha, A. Desha,
Chas. Makanui, ID. Kealoha, Joe
Teves, VIM. Ahip, Ant. Rodrigues,
Harry Brown, Geo. l.. Todd, JOS. S.
Canario. Mrs. G. b. Lyman accom-
panied her husband, and Stephen
Desha came along in the capacity of
rootcr and general good fellow.
Saturday afternoon they crossed
bats with the All Maui team for the
first time at the Kahului Athletic
Association grounds. 1t was II battle
between pitchers from start to finish
and the Hiloites won out by score
of 4 to 2, having made eight hits off
the All Maui twirler.
There was a large attendance at
this game and although at the be-
ginning the visitors had few sup
porters at the end of the game they
appeared to have the whole crowd
roofing for them.
Saturday evening the visitors
spent at the Harvest Home dance at
the Puunene Club. House, having
received invitations upon arrival.
That they spent an enjoyable even
ing goes without saying.
The second game was played ut
Wells Park in Wailuku on Sunday
afternoon. A large attendance was
present and enjoyed the game up to
the ending of the eighth inning when
the wind made things uncomfortable
for spectators and players.
Clouds of dust gathered in an adj
joining plowed cane field and swept
across the diamond on to the grand
stand and in II few minutes the
whole attendance looked as if they
were prepared to enter an antiques
and horribles parade.
This game looked like an easy
victory for the Maui team, who up
to the ninth inning had 7 runs to
the Hilo's g., In the ninth inning
the Hiloites, assisted by the dust,
did things. After two hands were
down they managed to make three
hits and scored four runs, tying the
score.
The wind continued to blow more
real estate than was good for the
health of players and spectators and
it was decided to play the game oven
the next afternoon.
1t was an unlucky move, nc
doubt, for the Hilo team. They ap.
peared strong on the field and every,
thing pointed to an easy victory
but Dame Fortune would have hel
way and at the end of the ninth in
ming the Maui bunch had scored siA
runs while the visitors failed to tally
although they made I hits off W
Espinda, pitcher of the local team.
The following is a summary o
the last game. Lack of space doe
not permit publishing the summar
les of the first two games.
