The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1909-06-21

cessful series of games. The playing
was decidedly off standard, but this is
accounted for by the fact that the
teams are new and have never played
together in the same way before. All
of the teams carried new men and in a
number of instances the old men APP
peared in new positions. A few games
will straighten all this out, however,
and the Riversiders will then get down
to original form.
The band played for the two games
and the crowd in attendance was quite
large. Promptly at 1870 President
Atkinson of the League took the bat
and Mayor Fern stepped into the pitch
er's box. Everybody got away from
around the backstop fence, expecting
the big Mayor to drive hole through
it and probably take corner off the
next block. But nothing like that
happened. His Honor doubled up and
unwound all right, showing that he
had been there before. Up in the air
went the ball, execution a nice little up
midtown curve and missing the for
mer Acting Governor a dozen feet or
more.
oh, he kin t'row EN- highern dat,
shouted a wag. Ball one'-the UNI
pire.
The Mayor Strengthened back for an
other try. This time he had thrown
away his cigar, and look of terrible
determination overspread his face. A
great fist gripped the gilded sphere.
The audience held its Breath. A
mighty swing and over came the bali,
in another nice little Up-and-down
curve. Our Jack was ready. He was
onto his Honors curves" With a
swat that brought a startled "ough
from the line of admiring ladies, Presi-
dent Jack caught the ball square in the
middle. Up, up, up it went and far
over toward Beretania street where
someone stopped it just before it hit
the trail for the mountains.
Mayor Fern secured the ball, which
had been prettily gilded for use on
the occasion. Jack Atkinson hit the
ball so hard that he broke all the gold
off of it, observed His Honor as he
fondled the trophy.
