FALL MAY RESULT FATALLY
Little Marjory Harrison Seriously Injured
 by Fall from a Tree.

Falling 25 feet to the ground from a tree late yesterday after noon, little Marjory Harrison, who has been making her home for the past year with Mrs. c. w. Harri- son in this city, received injuries which it is feared will result fatally. No bones were broken by the fall, but the little girl was seriously hurt internally. Dr. lG. D. Dick erson, who is attending her, stated this morning that the right lung was filled with blood and he feared serious consequences might follow, although it would be impossible to determine the full extent of the injuries for several days.
 Marjory's father, Dr. Arthur Harrison of Kensett, was tele- graphed for immediately after the accident and arrived on last nights train.

FERMENTATION
 MOVEMENT ON

Little Rock, June 4.-There will soon be sprung in Little Rock another movement to reannex Ar genta to Little Rock. It will be started by tile Business Men s League of Little Rock and will be started with so much force behind it that the promoters of greater Little Rock are sure it will be a success. It is proposed to take in Pulaski Heights, which is now a separate corporation, as we'll as other contiguous territory at the same time. There has been a con- mittee of the Business Men S League working on this plan for some time, for the purro ose of hav- ing large showing when the cen sus is taken in 1910. It Is hoped at that time to have Little Rock show 100, 900 population.
 There has been prepared peti
 tion from several hundred resi- dents of Argenta, asking County Judge Asher to annex that city to Little Rock. The city council of Little Rock is expected soon to pass an ordinance favorable to the annexation of Argenta and Pulaski Heights. County Judge Asher will then call a special election to have the people of the district vote upon the question. Should the maj jority vote for annexation, Ar genta will be forced to come into the city, under the provisions of the act which permits the city to be anrexed, and which affords it protection and the use of the reve- nues derived from its boundaries As this has been bitter question in Argenta for years, it is expect ed the fight for annexation will be a fierce one, and filled with per sonal encounters. Argenta was once part of Little Rock but SC cured a divorce under special legis-

FAULKNER
 GOOD P|CK|NC'

Little Rock attorneys evidently regard Faulkner county as good picking for railroad damage suits, as suits by them for damages aggregating nearly SIso, 900 against the Iron Mountain railway have been filed since the January term of circuit court.
 At the July, 1908, session of our court, a firm of Little Rock at torneys secured for a Pulaski county client judgment for SIo,- 900 against the railway company, and on account of being the largest verdict for damages ever awarded in Faulkner county the case attrac- ted considerable attention. At the last January term another big judgment for nonresident par ties was secured and since then five personal injury suits against the railway company have been filed by lawyers of the capital city for cases in which the plaintiffs neither live in this county nor did their alleged cause for action oo- cur in this county. The law. however, permits any person to sue railway company for dam ages in any county through which its line runs, regardless of the place of residence of the plaintiff.
 The latest suit to be filed is one this morning by Bratton & Brat ton of Little Rock for Wm. Hud- son against the St. l.. I. M. & s. Ky. Co. The plaintiff in this case alleges that on May 24, 1909, he bought a ticket at Little to Bates vile, but the employe of the com pany refused to allow him to board the train, accusing him of being drunk. He claims that he was not drunk, but was crippled from a broken leg and that in attempt ing to get on the train he was drag ged from the steps and his leg

The total eclipse of the moon was viewed by many Conway peo- pie last night The moon rose totally eclipsed, but the reflected light of the earth gave it faint reddish appearance, making it ea- silly visible. The shadow began to leave the face of the moon short ly before 8 o'clock and passed off entirely about 9:3o o'clock. There will be an eclipse of the sun visible here exactly two weeks after last nights eclipse. It will begin shortly before sunset on Thursday, June Y, the sun setting eclipsed.

DAVID MALOS
GET THEIRS

LAHAINA, March 22.-One of the
best games of baseball was pulled off
on the Kilohana park last Saturday, be-
tween the crack David Malos and the
East Mauis; the former were defeated
by the close score of to 5. The game
was an interesting one, and some fine
playing was done by the winning team.
Anyway both teams aid well, and the
game was played in an hour and ten
minutes.
Twirler Levi of the David Malos,
pitched very good game, but the East
Mauis swatted his lunches of curves
all over the field in the last inning.
There was a goodsized crowd to see the
game, and the fans cheered loudly for
their favorites. The East Mauis will
face the Mid-Pacifc team this coming
Saturday.

The Knockers Club has opened up
on the Marathon race. OF course the
members of the club, most of whom
gather along the Rialto during the noon
hour, are omnipotent and can kill any
thing by merely swinging the hammer.
"Of course sometimes, but not very
often and certainly not in this case.
The funny part of it is that not a
single man who ran in the last race is
a member of the club. Therefore We
may say with great pleasure to each
and every one of those delightful ham
mer-wielders, knock, knock, you
doughty knights and do the best you
can; but the Marathon race will surely
take place though you work on back
talk plan
Meanwhile the enthusiasts laugh at
the insidious remarks of the club mem
bers and are going about their training
with great zest. Nigel Jackson is quite
as confident as ever that he can uphold
his title and will cover all wagers that
are placed.
Dial Fahy is another very keen one
and has a line of talk about what he
learned in the last race that seems like
sound sense. George Nelson is not quite
sure about entering. He is afraid that
the constant circling of the track will
get on a runners nerves.
Il no nj tIp0rpp
did not enter. On the level course and
with trainers to look after him, there
is no doubt that he can make an awful
hard race of it and hand back some of
the iibes that he has been taking from
his fellow marines.
Trustees Meet Today.
The trustees were unable to get to-
gether Yesterday but they will have a
meeting today and decide on whether
the league grounds may be used for the
race. The promoters of the race are
willing to meet them half way and
there seems not the least chance for a
hitch.
There is rurnor all over town that
dark horse has recently arrived from
the coast and will enter the race. NO
BODY knew his name or said they dldn
and a few of the wise ones made great
mystery of it, No fictitious names Will
be allowed, however, and any entrant
who is not well known will have to come
through with his right name or take his
entrance fee back.
Training at Park.
Kapiolani Park was again the scene
of much training yesterday afternoon.
Jackson logged out fifteen miles and
Avres tried out his scheme of walking
lap and running one, judging the third
| of mile as best he could. He stated
afterwards that he had renewed con-
fdence in this method of covering the
track and expects to make some of them
sit up at the finish.

and that they feel the better for the
hard effort on Sunday. Many of them
complain of sunburn on the back of the
calves, however and one or two pairs
of legs are peehng painfully. They will
soon get over this; and their skin will

posed as much as possible while train

Small Expense.
The prizes have nearly all been chos-

choice has taken an order from Mr..
Vierra for the prize he fancied. AS
soon as they have all been taken list

generous offers of the merchants went.
The race last Sunday was run with an
entire expenditure of about $15-$7 of
this was for stamps and the balance for
various incidentals that were not worth
asking for. Everything else was do
mated and it was wonderful tribute
to the generosity and enthusiasm of the
people of Honolulu that SO big an event
could be pulled off with practically no
expenditure. The forfeits of those who
did not start and of those who kindly
donated their forfeits to the expense
fund will just about cover the expenses
so that nobody is out anything.
Camp Very Excited.
After definite word is received from
the trustees, the place where entries will
be received will be announced and those
in charge of the event will Immediately
start to make all arrangements.
Camp Very is more than a little
stirred up over this coming event. There
are many of them who believe that they
can do something over a long distance
and there is talk of a large entry list
of marines, who will do their best to
show the people of Honolulu that they
are there with the goods. Well, they
have done it in baseball and other
sports and they can surely do the same
with Marathoning.

when you pause to consider its pos
sibilities. To illustrate:
team could make 81 hits for III
bases in nine innings and not score, as
follows: Black, the first man up,
triples and is out trying to stretch the
hit into a home run; Brown dies like
wise; Green triples; White hits slow
roller along the third base line, on
which the third baseman comes in fast,
but thinking the ball will roll foul he
permits it to roll while Green remains
on third, afraid to run because the
fielder could toss him out at any time.
The ball stopping on fair ground az
White reaches second, he is credited
with a two-Dase hit. Jones beats a
Smith, the sixth batter singles, the
ball striking a runner and retiring the
side, with six hits for thirteen bases
and not a run. 1t is POSSIBLE in base
ball for this program to be repeated
for nine innings, giving total of "a
hits for III bases, without run.
Despite the fact that the pitcher Of
the team making so many hits holds his
opponents errorlessly. he can be defeat
ed with ease as follows:
He walks the first man up and the
