THE OAHU SENIORS
TALK BUSINESS

The Oahu Senior Baseball League
held a meeting at the office of Senator
Charles F. Chillingworth last evening
and finished up a great deal of routine
present and all of the teams were re-
presented. Vice President Marcallino
was in the chair and A. X. Akau Off
ciated as secretary.
The report of the treasurer was in
teresting, as it showed a balance of
about 1910 on hands, after paying all
bills. This for the beginning of a sea-
son was not regarded as bad. On the
strength of the fine showing, the sti-
pend of the official scorer was in
creased from $3.50 to SO and there
was talk of recognizing at the end of
the season the services of the manag-
er in a substantial way.
Dom Paul Burns reported that he
had released two of his players to
participate in the games Of the big
league, and that three more would be
released in a day or two Burns was
allowed TO sign on seven ana the u
A. C.'s two new men. All official lists
must be complete by the 27th.
1t was voted to pass rejected balls
of the League over to the Junior Lea
que, it being ascertained that the kid.
dies can make good use of them.
There was talk of a fine cup for the
present series, and a motion was
made for an appropriation for one;
but ii was announced that cup hat
already been promised by other par
| ties.
During the meeting it was announc
ed that Corporal James r. Davis, cap
tain of the Marine team, had been pro
NOTED to be sergeant, the announce
ment bringing out hearty applause.

Strange as it may seem to the unco
guild, the absorbing topic Of CONVEX
sation on the street is the Sulli-
van-Cordell boxing cotest which takes
place at the Star Theater tomorrow
night.
Everyone is discussing the probable
outcome and almost everyone who has
drop of sporting blood in his veins
will be at the ringside when the gong
summons the two contestants to the
center of the ring.
One disgrunted individual said to
me this morning that he didn't know
what the local press was coming to, in
devoting so much daily space to ''vul-
gar prize-fghting. He also tlattered
me by pointing out that l was prosti-
tuting my talents by doing press work
| in connection with the coming con-
| test.

about boxing. He will find himself in

HANDBALL
THIS AFTERNOON

This afternoon at o'clock Mark G.
Johnson and James Mott will meet in
the gymnasium of the Y. M. C. A. for
the final battle in the handball tour
nament. That this will be the great
est event of the kind this year goes
without saying. Both men have play
ed through the arduous tournament
and won their way up to the tiual,
and it is now standoff which will
win.
In the matter of age, Mott would ap-
pear to have the advantage. Mr.. john
son, however, has taken good care of
himself in times past and is as active
as a cat. 1t will be battle royal.
Mott is a Honolulu boy, having
been born and educated here. He Is
a clerk in the Office Of the Mutual
Telephone Company. Mr.. Johnson
came here about fifteen years ago and
entered the tailoring business on Fort
street where Pacheco's barber shop
now is, the firm name being Van
Camp, Johnson e Story. A short time
later he entered the customs service
and has stuck to that ever since He
is prominent in Methodist church and
Y, M. c. A. work, and is an expert
checker, chess and player of other
games. And it now appears that he
can also play handball-but more will
/ be known of that matter tonight.

BOXING CONTEST Will
CONSTITUTE AN EPOCH

the author is constantly distracting
the eager reader from the important
business in the ring to the emotions
of the ladies on the top of the coach.
1t may seem good deal of jump
from Meredith to Conan Doyle, but
Doyle's two prize-fighting stories are
excellent of the kind and worth all the
rest of his work put together.
In the United States, the late John
Boyle, patriot and poet, not only pat
ronized the sport but at times pun
off his singing robes TO engage as
referee of fight.
Indeed, so little below the surface is
the old Adam in all of us, that one
sees as representative \ crowd at a
prize fight as at a peace conference,
The battle of tomorrow night prom
Uses to be an epoch maker in the his
tory of local Kingdom. 1t will be a
veritable battle of the giants. Both
Sullivan and Cordell are as fit as hands
can make them and both have ev-
erything to gain and all to lose stated
on the issue of the contest. For Cor
dell victory means another step to-
ward the top of the pugilistic ladder
on the farthest run of which is plac-
ed the middleweight championship of
the world. Should he go down in de-
feat before Dick Sullivan 1t will be
the bush towns of the Pacific Slope
for him and such scant measure of
dollars as can be squeezed out of box
ing yaps and yokels.
A win for Dick Sullivan means an
underlined period of business prosper
ity for the successor of "Scotty' Mes
ton and genial AL. Thurlow. The fate
full count of ten" over Dicks pros
trate form, however, will be a force
full hint to the rangy middleweight
that the grass grows longer and green

place of business is far from what it
is cracked up to be.

SUIT FOR LAKE TAHOE LAND
GOVERNMENT ACTION TO CON-
troll IRRIGATION OUTLET.
Management Of Electric Power Com
pany Unsatisfactory to Settlers
in California and Nevada.

The Attorney General upon request Of
the Secretary of the Interior has author
lied the United States attorney in San
Francisco to bring suit against the True
kee River General Electric Company and
the acknowledgements Electric Power
Company and other parties interested. to
acquire possession of a certain tract Of
land at the outlet of Lake Tahoe, which
is found to be necessary in connection
with the Truckee-C Carson project in Ne
vada, of the United States reclamation
service.
Lake Tahoe is an interstate body of
water much valued for its scenic beauty
which will not be impaired by its use in
connection with irrigation as proposed by
the United States. The storage of water
in this lake Is an essential feature of the
Truckee-Carson project which has been
constructed under the provisions of the
reclamation act, and involves the irriga-
ton of an area of 100000 acres or more.
For many years there has been dam
on Truckee river at tho point where 1t
leaves the lake. In ie-cnl years this
dam has been used to store water for GER
tain power plants along the Truckee
river in California and Nevada. The
management of this dam has been very
liable property around the lake, and on
several occasions they have suffered con-
siderable damage because the flow of
water out Of the lake was not properly
regulated.
The parties who now seem to control
the outlet, Messrs. w. p Harmon and
F. g. Baum Of San Francisco, are plan
ming a large and interesting enterprise
for power development in the Sierra Ne
vadas. The government has found 1t
! impossible to reach agreement with
the parties interested, and in justice to
the large number of settlers on the prof.
ect, who must depend upon this water
tinue futile negotiations that have served
only to delay proper assurance of water
supply to the people on the project.
1t is understood that the government
will push this suit as much possible
IN order that the further expansion of the
Truckee-Carson project may not be I'M
duly delayed.
