DICK REUTER- To
..ys41g
JOIN SEATTLES

Dick Reuter- the Honolulu baseball
pitcher who went to California early
in the season and failed to make good,
has been heard from. He is out of
the team with which he had signed
and is now under engagement to play
with the Seattles. AS there will be
important doings in the line of base
ball up that way during the summer,
the new berth is as important as the
old.
Reading between the lines of all that
has been written by both sides in the
Reuter- affair it is plain that the Ho-
nOlulu man did not play the ball over
there that was his won't in Honolulu.
The chilly, foggy climate was against
him, and he was never in the best of
physical trim. Then, again, he found
himself wedged in between cOmbina-
tions that were at war, and their bat
ties were fought over his shoulders.
From the start the situation was dis
couraging, and it fai!CG to improve.
Whether his resignation was offered
or requested is not stated; but it was
probably a little of both The trouble
had reached a point where the Homo
lulu man could not retain his dignity
and remain in the box for the team
with which he had signed.

THE kAPIOLANIS
ADJUST TROUBLE

There was a largely attended and
enthusiastic meeting of the Kapiolani
Baseball League at the residence of
John Silva last evening, at which
numerous items of business were
Strengthened out. The lengthiest dis
cussion was on the status of Antoine
Medeiros, pitcher, who had signed with
both the All Star and Reach teams.
When this matter was sifted to the
bottom, it was found that the double
signing was the result of mistake for
which Medeiros was not altogether to
be blamed. After amending the by
laws to make the action legal, Me-
deiros was released from both teams
and then allowed to sign over with the
Reach nine This arrangement seem
ed to be satisfactory all around, al
though it was admitted that the pre-
cedent Was a bad one.
Next Sundays games iii the Kapio-
lani park will be as follows: Reach VS.
All Stars, at 1870; All Hawaii VS.. To

.PE7RIE To EXTEND
TOUR TO EUROPE

President Lester Petrie, of the Hea-

MAN for the east, will make a more
extended tour than had been supposed.
He will not only do the big cities Of
the United States but will go across to
England, France and other countries OF
Europe. He is taking the summer for
his travels largely for the purpose OF
witnessing big sports in the great cen
ters. For instance, he expects to be
present at the Yale-Harvard champion
ship shell race about July 1, and will
see other big boating events in Amer
lea
He will strike England at the best
of the Derby season, and it will be the
race track for awhile. 1t is also the
boat racing season in the United King
dom, and he will take in the best of
it.
This will be Mr.. Petries first trip
abroad in seven years, and on that oc-
casion he limited his travels to Cali
fOrnia. He will be away about four

The baseball game in the military

resulted in victory of the Fifth Cav

rafting good one all the way through
The Fort Shafter team, together with
a number of officers, ladies, 'rooters,'
and a few town people, reached the
cavalry camp something after 10 a.

afternoon. 1t being felt that the Fort
Shafter team was the weaker, Butler,
the first pitcher of the cavalry outfit,
was not punt in the box, Bell pitching
the entire game. Boloun pitched for
the Infantrymen.
The game was notable for tight play

yet put up by the country teams. The

MOTORCYCLE RUN
AROUND ISLAND

A motorcycle leader has suggested
an endurance race around the island of
Oahu, which he thinks, would prove
interesting in that it would be test
of both machines and men. His idea
would be to have about four stations,
one being the starting point at Homo
lulu, one at Eva, one at Haleiwa and
one in the Koolaus, the machines TO
play for speed between these stops.
Such race would surely be a fine
test of machines, the tire and engine
trouble clearly proving the staying
qualities as to each make And that
is the principal thing to be proved in
any motorcycle event.
This proposal of a round the island
race has been put up to several OF the
cyclists and they are quite enthusiastic
about it. The motorcycle agencies
are also anxious for such a trial.

HIGH SCHOOL AND
SAINTS PLAY TIE

What had promised and undoubtedly
would have been most exciting game
of baseball between the St. Louis and
High School teams was broken off
yesterday afternoon by rain. The
score at the end of the fifth innings
was tied at to 2, giving some idea
of the warm time that had been going
on. 1t will be necessary to play on
the tie later along in the interscholas-
tic season.
There was quite a large crowd of
friends of both sides present and all
seemed to enjoy the sport while it
lasted. The Punahous naturally root
ed for the St Louis team, for had the
latter won it would have improved the
chances of the collegers for the pen
nant. When the rain came on the
crowd had to break for shelter, there
being nothing save the trees on the
field.
In The first two innings and half Of
the third no scores were made by either
side, and the playing was as neat as
anyone could desire. In the seconC

derness in such matters. The bust
ness is bad, although we think we have
to endure it yet awhile. But the liquor
sellers have had ample warming and
they know the rules of the game. Let
them play in man fashion, or quit.
The good unofficial citizens must
throw the weight of their influence on
the side of law and order There
ought to be no land, or house, leasable
for a drink shop, wholesale or retail,
rear a camp or a market. No good
citizen ought carelessly to sign a liq-
uor dealers petition or go on his bond,
or permit his representative to do so.
Many temperance men in Honolulu are
parties to the liquor business today,
because some good-natured manager
of their property has signed a license
petition.
Newspapers that stand for high
ideals and clean politics, ought to de-
cline to sell space for liquor advertise
ments. 1t used to be thought that
publishers had no right so to decline,
but there is no longer any question
about that. The huge black-letter
advertisements of beer and whiskey,
that dishgure even our best papers,
are not especially expected to produce
sales directly. The men in these ISL
ands who buy such goods know what
! they want and where to get it. No
body buys beer because he sees a page
panegyric about it in big type. Such
advertising is simply useful, and wholly
Intended, for publicity, to keep the
young and the ignorant familiar with
the subject, immune TO new truth about
it, and in the line of future exploita-
! ton.
And finally, it would be great help
to cause that needs assistance; and
would pay big dividends On the in
vestment of personal influence, if alco-
holic beverages were to become con-
spicuous by their absence from the
clubs where the most cultured and
prosperous citizens are in control,
and from the private hospitality of
men of commanding position. The
destruction of the weak comes not a
little from the poor creatures trying to
initiate the strong.

POLOISTS MAKE
EXCELLENT START

Nine or ten members of the polo
club met at the Pacific club last even

Single, Potter, judd Dillingham; and
other prominent players being absent,
nothing of Importance was done. Most
encouraging reports were received
from every quarter, however, and the
prospects certainly look bright for the
greatest season the poloists have ever
had.
1t was decided to begin practice on
the Moanalua field next Saturday after
noon, teams to be selected from men,
bers of the club. These Hractice
matches will thereafter be kept up
regularly until the season opens.

GUN CLUB SHOOT &
RESULTS IN TIE

A surprise was sprung in the fifth
trophy shoot of the Hawaiian Gun
Club yesterday afternoon when Kirk
B. Porter, who already had two legs
on the prixe and was expected to win
fell down. He had been unwell dur
ing the day and was unable in the
pinch to score with the high bunch. j.
W. Harvey was the final winner, which
makes him tie with Porter in the COM

The first results were: e. /. Spalding

CHANGE IN n. c. H.
SHOOTING RANCE

Change in shooting range.
The Bishop Estate having found it
necessary to take back large portion
of the land in Kakaako used by the
National Guard for shooting range
purposes, the local soldiers will find
it necessary to seek another place for
long distance practice. Only the two
hundred yards range at Kakaako can
hereafter be used, thus shutting on
practice at 300, 500, 800 or 1000 yards,
as may be required. In the present
competition for the pick of men to
participate in the national shoot this
summer, it has been found necessary to
use the range at Fort Shafter for long
distance firing.
Major Riley, who is in charge OF the
competitive shoot, had thirty-five men
out last Sunday, and some very salts
factory scores were made. Out OF
the number at practice, eighteen will
be passed to make up the team for
Camp Perry. Another shoot in the
competitive series will be held at the
same place next Sunday.
