INvINCIBLEs PLAY
80. UNDAUNTEDS SUNDAY

The return match between the
Wall. Nichols baseball team and the
Yokohama Specie Bank will be play
ed on Sunday morning at 0 o'clock,
and promises to be good game.
Vierra's "Invincibles," as the Wall,
Nichols bunch are now known, are
determined to whitewash the bank
ers this time, and as their team has
been made much stronger It may
come about that the booksellers beat
the bookkeepers. At any rate the
game is going to be long-drawn-out
tale Of joy, and anyone wishing to
have a good mornings fun (after go
ing to church, of course,) had better
take car down to Aala Park and
watch the '1nvincibles" and the I'm
daunteds'' at work on the diamond.
The Hawaiian News Company is
out with a challenge to the "Invinci-
bles." and are to be accommodated
on Sunday week probably. The en-
ployes of the Stangewald building
are also anxious to have go at
Vierra's Valentines. and no doubt
they will also be taken on in the
near future. Ehlers & Co. expect TO
put 1t all over the other lot of ball
jugglers, and there will be some
thing doing when their team runs
up against some OF the other clubs.
Baseball seems to be flourishing all
over the city and the neat team will
probably be made up Of some of the
school girls of the Territory.

Yacht Cruise
Tickets Going
Fast

The Pearl Harbor excursion seems
to be looming up as a great event,
and the interest that is being shown
in the outing is only an indication of
what Honolulu is ready and capable
of doing In the sporting line. No
less than six yachts accommodation
has been completely sold out, and
the rush for tickets for the remain
ing boats is remarkable. There is
still room on the larger craft, and
the Mokolii and Luka can stand a
few more passengers, but anyone
wishing to purchase ticket had bet
ter hurry up, as the sale OF the neces-
sary passes closes tomorrow at 2
O'Clock. In order to let the caterer
have sufficient time to prepare for
the big crowd, II is necessary to stop
the sale of tickets a day before the
picnic: he must know IN advance
Just how many people are going to

reached a very interesting point

vited. to drop In and watch what
promises to be very good after
Moons tennis.
Yesterday the first match played
was between Captain Lowe and f.
S. Gee, and three sets had to be
played to decide the struggle. The
first set was a hard fought one, and
the play Of both men was excellent.
Gees forehand drive was very ac-
curate, and he found the side lines
repeatedly. Low put up fine
game. and fve-all saw both players
going strong. The set ran 70 four
teen games. and then was won by
Low Sc; 1t was a fine, well.foughtout
60 The next set was also long
one, and no less than sixteen games
had to be played before the deciding
stroke was made by Gee, who. took
credit Of either man, the interest in
the match was aroused to fever point,
and another long set was looked for
ward to. However, Gee, playing in
grand form, and making very few
mistakes, took the third and deciding
set 81. The total game showed
that Gee had won Il to Lows 10.

IMMIGRATION.

The Cleveland Leader, in an edito-
rial, attempts to show by the inoreas-
ing number of immigrants arriving at
New York, that times are getting bet
ter. The Leader says: "Last week
22,724 immigrants landed in New
York. ** So far this year the
steerage passengers landed at New
York have been 53,142 in excess of
the number who sailed from that
city," This is a ghostly array of sta
tistics when We consider that foreign
ers come in free of duty" and that
every mothers son Of them comes in
direct competition with a hungry
American who has been jobless and
starving for more than a year.-The

Phebe was thoroughly surprised.
She sat very still and quiet for mo-
ment and then Enthusiastically said,
II 'spect we would be, David.
When David and Phebe reached the
church they did not go and sit down
together under the arbor after the
manner Of most engaged couples, but
while David was unhitching Nell from
the buggy, Phebe got out and went
on with Sister Polly Robson as she
came by on her way to the arbor.
When David had hitched Nell to a
pine sapling, he went and sat down
on the other side Of the "stand -
David knew a man at church who
lived in town and was going home
that night, but coming back next day,
SO David sent by him for the license.
"Gracious mercy!" exclaimed
Nancy Hicks Monday just after din
ner when Phebe told her about it
81 never wus SO surprised in my
life" And she never had been, for
she had not thought it possible that
anybody she knew could marry unless
she helped to make the match. But
she had been So busy preparing for
the Association, entertaining COM
pany, and looking after the cooking
that she had not even thought of
getting up love affair between these
two friends of hers.

And when | saw them one shining,
hot Sunday in June on their way to
Hardshell baptizing behind faithful,
Flooding Nell, Phebe holding the big
umbrella and looking out with placid,
calm eyes from the depths Of her bon
net, and David s face all hale and red
and smiling, covered half with flowing
white beard beneath his broad
brimmed black hat, knew that they
had not been disappointed in their
expectations Of happiness and that
when Nancy Hicks had said, "'You II
both be a sight contenteder an better
off, " she had uttered prophecy.

They spoke of the war-of that day
in the spring of '61 when David and
William had marched away with the
first company Of volunteers that had
hurried to the front from Berrien
County at President Davis s first call
for troops-of the awful days that
followed when he and William had
suffered all the agoni,s and hard
ships Of fighting anil marching and
camping and starvi1g--of the trials
and responsibilities that Phebe and
Sary Jane had undergone at home,
and Of the awful dread and suspense
that had aged them even more than
the incessant toll and privation, and
of that sad-joyous day at last when
the two soldiers had tOttered home
with every hope shattered and nothing
left but life.
And they lived again those days
boI oil
turned, when they had somewhat re-
covered their start in life and had
begun to prosper in spite of adversely.
They remembered each halloWed incl
dent that had marked the passing
years-the sickness, the deaths and
other sorrows that had come to the
two families and in which they had
been to each other friends and neigh
bors indeed. Sadly they recalled the
times when, one by one, the children
had all gone away and the old home
had seemed so still and voiceless.
Then came the saddest memory of
all when death had taken from each
of them their lifelong sweetheart
their all in all of earth, and after that
they, too, had gone out into other
homes, and life had never seemed
quite right since.
The next morning when it was
time to go to church, David went out
and hitched Nell to the buggy,
led her up to the yard fence and
threw the bride rein over post.
Then he went into the house, walked
to the water shelf where Phebe was
getting a drink Of water and said,
"Phebe, you mought as we'll ride with
me to meetin', bein' as I'm by myself
an got plenty o. room.''
Phebe was startled and looked like
she thought she ought to apologize
to the whole world for doing it, but
she said she would. She wore black
dress and bonnet and her brown eyes
and wavy, half-gray hair betokened
the beauty that had once been hers.
AS Nell patiently made her way
toward Good Hope church David said,
"Phebe, I've been a studyin' a right
smart about my condition an yourn

11d IN 1T many a mile, an | IN a
gwine to ride in it to the end of the
journey
Johns ffteen-year-old daughter,
Kathleen, wept and said that it was
just too embarrassing to her for any
thing to see her grandfather riding
in such looking turnout. But her
entreaties prevailed not and she had
to suffer and endure.
On Saturday before the fourth
Sunday in each month David went
back to his old home to attend church.
1t was fifteen miles from John 8, but
he and Nell made the trip faithfully,
no matter how hot or how cold, how
wet or how dry the weather. David
was a Hardshell End he declared that
the "newfangled town religion his
children believed in did him no good.
It was at the big Hardshell Asso-
citation at Good Hope, his old church,
about two years after Sary Jane died,
that he saw Phebe johnson.
For years and years William and
Phoebe Johnson had owned and lived
on the farm next to David's and had
been the nearest neighbors and closest
friends of David and Sary Jane. But
five years ago Fred, their only child,
had persuaded them to move to Bruins
wick and live near him. William had
died three years ago, and since that
time Phoebe had lived with Fred and
had visited her old home and old
friends but once.
David and Phebe both spent Satur-
day night at the home Of their
friends and neighbors of the long ago
Sam and Nancy Hicks. Sam and
Nancy had quite a good many guests,
just as they always did from the Big
Meetings and Associations at Good
Hope.
| don't know how it happened, but
that afternoon David and Phebe
found themselves seated at the south
ern end Of the long, wide piazza that
extended the entire length of Sam IS
big log house, somewhat apart from
the other guests. "Sister Polly Robi-
son." from cold Union' church in
Brooks, who had known Phebe, and
David too, when they were all chill
dren, had been with them and had
joined in the conversation for while,
but she said, If | don t go and battle
my side in some homemade iniment
I've got, I'll not be able to 60 to
church tomorrow" She was large
and tall and had the rheumatic" so
she limped off and they were left
alone.
They talked for long time. They
recalled the time when they we're
children and had gone to school at
the little log school house with dirt
floor, and of the harricane" that
"blowed the top offen' the school
house one day. Then of the time, at
last, when they were grown-he q

ry Jane had been a great
- grief-had seemed almost
more than he could bear, but now to
leave the old home, to sever all the
hallowed associations, to go away
from the old church and the loved
and familiar places-all these things
that reminded him Of Sa1y Jane and
the far-off, happy days when they had
been young and hopeful-seemed alto
gether too much.
He wanted to rent the farm to a
good family and live with them, but
no, the children would not listen to
this The boys urged him to go and
live with them and said it would be
the JOY of their lives to make their
father old age one of ease and con-
tent. They lived in town. John was
rich and Jim was prominent and in
fuential.
Mary said if he stayed there she
never could go to sleep at night for
thinking about her poor old pa, away
off there by himself among strangers.
Lizzie declared that it would be a
shame, and she was not going to put
up with it, for she was president of
the Young Matrons' Club, and her
husband was going to run for Solici-
tor at the next election.
John was the richest one Of the

they arranged that their father should
make his home at John s but divide
his time about equally among them
all.
And they all did do their best to
make their father comfortable and
happy. His grandchildren adored
him, and to wait on him or have him
play with them was their greatest de-
light. Mary lived in Florida and he
spent the winters with her.
But in spite Of all the comforts and
all the leisure at his command, the
white-haired, red-faced old man was
not happy He missed the musical
tinkle of the cow-bell and the welcome
song Of the whippoorwill. He longed
to catch the odor of the tasseling corn
and the faint perfume of the cotton
blossoms. He would much rather
have got up at day break and gone
to hunt the calves than to lie in bed
two hours after sun up or get up and
sit on the piazza by himself. To go
for a ride or walk late in the after
noon was not nearly so pleasant to
him as it would have been to take
sack Of corn and bucket Of Stops
and go to feed the pigs.
There were two relics of the past,
however, which no amount of per-
suasion could induce the old man Da-
vid to give up-Nell, his old gray
mule. and his oldfashioned, half
WORKOUT buggy. The children had
insisted that he sell Nell and the ram
shackled, dilapidated buggy, and get
nice little pony and stylsh-look-
ing new buggy. But he remained
firm. Nell was the only companion

Frederick County Phone System In
New Hands,

The Chesapeake and Potomac Tele-
phone Company closed deal Monday for
the purchase of the Frederick County
Telephone and Telegraph system at a
price said to be about $l25, 200. The
transaction was made through Mr.. T. A..
Tingley, of Baltimore.
About two months ago Mr.. Tingley
asked the directors of the Frederick
county company to put price on the
controlling interest in the company. The
price was named, and Monday morning
the directors were notified that the sale
had been made to the Chesapeake and
Potomac company. The stock of the
Frederick county company will be taken
over by the Chesapeake and Potomac at
80 cents on the dollar of it's par value.
The bonds of the former company are to
be taken by the latter at par and ac-
crued interest. The authorized capital
of the Frederick company is 500, 600, but
only $40, 900 of stock was issued by it.
Its bonds amount to $4,000.
The stocks and bonds of the Frederick
company are to be deposited with the
Frederick County National Bank, through
which settlement will be made. A ma
jority of the shares are held by the d.
rectors, but minority stockholders will
receive the same price for their shares
as the directors.
The Frederick company was entirely
home enterprise, of which DR.. P. d.
Fahrney was president, James H. Har-
I ris vice president; DR.. Franklin B. Smith
secretary and treasurer; c. j. Larkin
manager, and Dudley Page superintend-
ent. 1t was organized in 1897 as the In
terstate Company, and in 1899 was taken
over by some people and known as the
Frederick County Telephone and Tele-
graph Company.
From the beginning it outstripped the
Potomac company in Frederick city and
county, which formerly had the field to
itself. The officials of the Frederick
company say they know nothing about
the plans of the Chesapeake and Poto-
mac company in regard to the future OPP
Grafton of its lines.
