Band at League Grounds To-
morrow.

| At the meeting OF the militar,
league executive yesterday. lot of
dirty linen was washed and much
said about the different rows that
have occurred during. games at Lei
lehua and elsewhere. The principal
! trouble seemed to have been between
the n. @. H. and the Cavalry. and
some of the remarks passed out By
the Fighting Fifth men appear to
have been fairly bot. An umpire
that the Guards took to Leilehua
with them was not much admired BY
J the Cavalry. and. from all a counts
| there were squabbles over the deci-
sions. ...-4
! The Guards wereyaIso to blame, ac-
7 cording to the evidence OF some OF
I the Cava.ry officers, aud, taking
/ things generally. there has been
some nasty work going on between
the teams.
Alter the washing was pau, the
\ question of a new schedule wa
taken up, andsafter much discussion
an amended oiie was adopted. Under
the new arrangement, ON SUNDAY
next the Guards VIII play two games
at Leiiehua.
The Cavalry at Leilehua always
turn out to meet the train when tn
town teams go out there to play
and the expense money Is alway'
ready for the lads who make the
train trip. The Fifth take their op
ponents to their mess room and en-
