All Ready
Play Ball
Two Great Games Today and
Tomorrow.

Everything is in readiness Tor the
great baseball games today and to-
morrow, August 18th and 10Th, at
Kahului and Wells Park respect
lively. Both grounds have received
a good deal of attention and are now
in better condition than they ever
were. The grand stands have also
received some attention and every
thing possible has been done for the
comfort of the spectators.
From reports received from the
Big Island it is evident that the All
Hilo team has been hard at practise
and expect to return home victor
ious. Their lineup is strong one
and they have reason to believe their
team to be invincible.
BY last Wednesdays Claudine the
following lineup was received: All
Hilo-Harry Brown, C, ID. Kealoha,
D, VIM. Nannatta, 2b, JOS. Teves,
3b, C. B. Lyman, IS, Chas. Maka-
nui, 1b, Geo. Todd, cf, VIM. Desha,
rf, Geo. Desha. If, VIM. Ahip, JOS.
Canario and Alec Desha, subs.
The names of some professional
players are seen in the above list
and these with the aid of the other
players in the team should be able
to put up an excellent game.
Nevertheless the All Maui boys
have much confidence in themselves.
With their second base strengthened
as also the outfield they feel that
they could defeat the All Hawaii
team should they meet again.
Upton and Myers will form the
battery for the two games and much
is expected from them. Upton has
been down to work aud reports his
arm better than ever. With Myers
handling him behind the bat there
will be lot of surprized residents
of the Rainy City returning home
next Tuesday.
Captain Geo Cummings has had
his men out every day and is much
pleased with their showing. Garcia
at second is playing in his old form
and the fans who have watched him
at practise are delighted.
A large crowd is assured for both
games. Tickets have been placed on
sale at various places 10y manager
Mountcastle and are selling like hot
cakes. The purchasing of tickets
before the games will avoid the crush
at the ticket office and will save
much time. The games will he
started punctually ON the advertised
hour in order to enable the spectat-
tors to reach their homes early.
There will be special trains run
from all points for today's game at
Kahului Park. The price of admis-
sion will be % cents and % cents
extra for seat in the grand stand
Children, admission ID cents, grand
stand 10 cents extra.

will be attended by the largest crowd
ever assembled in Wailuku. Ticket.
are rapidly selling and the public is
advised to go early and secure theil
seats. The game will begin at 3; 81
p. m. The same prices charged "A
kahului will prevail.
The promoters of these games arr
not in for the money there is in i
but want to give the public the op
portunity to see the local team il

every one who loves our nationa

ABBOTT Defines
ideal WOMAN
DIR. LYMAN ABBOTT OUTLINES
HIS VIEWS OF THE IDEAL
IN WOMEN.
LIST OF ''MCSTS'' THAT THE
IDEAL WOMEN SHOULD UN-
DERSTAND.

New York, March 16.-Rev. DR..
Lyman Abbott defined the "1deal
Woman" last night in the Central
Conversational church in Brooklyn.
ITO be an ideal woman" said Mr.
Abbott, "the feminine type, repre-
sented in each individual, must:
II. Discard all shoes the size OF
which makes walking we'll nigh I'M
possible.
"2. She must not consider heI
hands when it comes to question OF
work.
"3. To obtain red cheeks, the ideal
woman must take exercise and pass
by paint and powder.
~. She must not be a servant of
the dressmaker and milliner. They
are her servants.
IS. She must not change her styles
at the dictation Of men in Paris.
&c. Her home must be her palace,
because in it she developed love and
beauty, and has shown she knows
how to create it.
~. She must be industrious, SYM
pathetic, energetic, enthusiastic,
motherly, and true friend"
Continuing, Mr.. Abbott said:
"A woman's idea of modern indus
try is playing bridge whist morning
and night. Her idea of modern life
is to be supported by some one else.
"The ideal woman does not consid-
er work unwomanly. She believes
that whatever concerns her husband
concerns her. II the ideal woman's
family finds fault with her cooking,
she does not blame the cooking. She
blames the food and changes it.
"Woman was meant to be mans
companion, and If the idea were
properly carried out there would be
no afinities.'

OF Interest to Women
HUNGRY EYES ON TAFT AUTO
FEMININE VISITORS TO THE Ma
TONAL CAPITAL LIKE MRS.
TAFT'S AUTO.
HAS RIGHT OF WAY OVER ALL
VEHICLES AND IS SUNlPTU-
GUS LIMOUSINE.

Washington, D. c. March TO-
In the ewes of feminine visitors to
the national capital an object or
pre-eminent interest just now is the
handsome new $1,000 automobile IN
which Mrs. w. H. Taft may be daily
seen spinning about the streets OF
Washington. Not only is the new
car the first vehicle of the kind ever
maintained for a first lady of the
land, but it is the first automobile
used by mistress Of the White
House, for Mrs. Roosevelt rarely en-
tered an automobile, being in full
svmnathv with her husbands we'll
known prejudices on the subject.
The automobile which has been In
stalled as Mrs. Taft's equippage OF
state is distinctly the property OF the
new mistress of the presidential
mansion.
Mrs. Taft's new $1,000 gasoline au-.
tomobile of the Limousine type IS
the personal property of the ne"
tenants of the White house, pur-
chased from their private funds and
designed for use on all occasions
when their journeyings about Wash
ington and in the suburbs have no
official Significance.
Mrs. Taft's car, like the other
White House automobiles, has the
right of way over all vehicles in
Washington, and will not be COM
PEELED to observe any speed limit.
Her car is upholstered in dark blue
broadcloth and her chauffeur wears
a neat and unostentatious livery OF
corresponding tint. On either side
at the front are mirrors, which ena-
BILE the chauffeur to keep constantly
informed as to what vehicles are
following him, and thus minimize
the daner of collisions at turns.
The interior of the car is the en-
bodiment of luxury.
There is an electric dome light.
supplied with current from stor-
age battery of sufficient capacity to
keep it aglow for twenty-four hours.
Occupants of the tonneau can COM
municate with the chauffeur by
means of a speaking tube, or may
employ an annunciator, which causes
to flash up before the eyes of the
driver of the car such signals as
''start." ':stop," ''slow," faster"
fright" "left," "home," etc.

Fine Cd Spanish EmeraIds.

"Fine old Spanish emeralds' il a
phrase which means something quite
different from what 1t seems to imply.
There never was an emerald mined In
Spain, but after the conquest of Peru
the conquerors brought home great
quantities of loot, Of which emeralds
formed an important part In this
way the finest emeralds came into
possession Of the old Spanish families,
and as very few had been seen in
Europe previous to that time all the
best stones soon became classed ~
fne old Spanish emeralds. Today TIE
expression still applies to the ibost
emeralds of any source.
