That is impossible,

with It."
mo, dear child, it is a debt OF
honor, and have promised to pay
1t at 10 O'Clock punctually."
Nadege had scarcely reached
her own room when she heard E
noise in the courtyard. She look,
ed out and saw two soldier
guarding the entrance, while two
more, preceded by a commissar,
of police, were walking in the di
rection of Stepane's apartments
A mack was standing outside the
door.
At that moment her maid en-
tered.

Litzanoff was not well. In his
desire to be at Prince Kryloff's
ball the night before he had gone
out too soon; his wound was but
partially healed, and the agitation
and the annoyance of all this pro-

fever. Nevertheless he dressed
himself and followed the soldiers.
AS he crossed the threshold of
his door he heard one piercing cry.

BASEBALL LEAGUE
TAKES BALL PARK
Great Impetus Given Sport by
Move on the Part of
the Clubs.

Real baseball has been given a de-
cided impetus by the statement that
the Baseball League win take over the
Moiliili ball park, where all the big
games have been played, and will run
the game Independent of all others.
This means that the old teams will be
presented-Punahou, St. Louis, Dia-
mond Head and Kamehameha Athletic
Club-and that the sport will be ham
died in the right manner.
1t is understood that L. Tenney Peck
has agreed to furnish the necessary
funds to the boys to clear the out
standing Indebtedness against the
clubs, and they will therefore have an
opportunity to start in with everything
in favor of a successful season. Base
ball was done to death for a while, the
players got genuinely lazy, the fans
were apathetic. and it was all be-
cause of the squabbling among the
clubs. There was nothing so very
definite to base decisions on, the UNI
pire had bunch that the wouldn't be
backed up in his rulings, the players
felt that they were not being treated
right. There is merit in every con-
tention, but the contentious were 50
numerous that they swamped the
sport, put it on the bum for sure for
a while here.
With the new and generous start
which the boys have, with everything
pointing to clear sailing, a success
should certainly be made of the game
from a sportsmanlike as well as a
financial point of view. Honolulu has
a number of players who are embryo
Big League men. They know the game
from every point of view, and they
can play it.
They have the savoy on the fine
points, but the trouble generally is
that they are lax about keeping in
good practise and condition. Now,
that the responsibility has devolved
upon them directly, it is up to them
20 do their part. The people want to
see good baseball, and they will GER
tainly come through with the neces-
sary attendances if the game is keen
and clean.
Baseball has been paying PROPOSE
ton in Honolulu, but in some instances
it has not been handled in the right
manner. Things are now shaping
themselves, however, so that the pub
lie may be ensured the best class of
the national game ever turned out in
the Islands.

through and through. Some of the local

YACHT HAWAII
WINS THE RACE
Kan Was a Good Sec0nd---T
Pirate Kids Schooner
Got Lost.

The Hawaii has at last come into
her own. Notwithstanding the sar-
castle slams. the predictions of old
salts. and the abundance of knocks
which have been directed against the
fast little craft, she managed to sail
into Kahului a good winner from the
fleet of schooner-yachts which sailed
from here Thursday evening It was
a fight all through the race between
her and the smart little goer Kameha-
meha, according to wireless dispatches
The other boats hadn't show from
the start, it is said
Who's the Hoodoo?
Jack Densham wirelessed to the Adj
vertiser that the Concord lost three
hours on account of a peculiar mis-
take. The sailors on the Pirate Kids
island schooner mistook the lee side
of Lanai for the lee side of Molokai.
This setback put the Buccaneers boat
out of the running. Densham's wire
less also states that the schooner Luka
lost her fore peak halyard and jib-
sheet during the gale that blew the
first night out from Honolulu.
The boats encountered tipping good
breeze all the way to Kahului, and
good time was made by all of them,

thereby putting cinch on her right
to be called the winner. But the good
old Kan was not far behind, finish
ing a mighty good second at 5:59:3S.
The little Gladys. which did not regu-
larly enter in the race but made the
trip, came in third. crossing the line
at $50 O'Clock. The treasureship Con-
cord wandered along at twenty min
utes past nine. while the poor, old, I'M
lucky, Luka didn't cross the line until
5:22 yesterday morning.
Kan Looked Like Winner.
For a while it seemed that the Kan
was due to come in winner. She got
lead of fifteen miles over the Ha-
wall on Thursday night, and kept it
until a very short time before the
finish. The Hawaii was favored with
a heavy breeze while passing through
the Maui channel, and passed the Kan
off Waihee twenty minutes before
crossing the finish line During the
heavy weather off Kahakaoa Point, the
Kamehameha split her mainsail.
