W TAKE.
In order to paint the depth and
breadth of that tender sentiment of
man which we know under the name of
fondness, they put together woman"
and "child,'' as is seen in Fig. IL.
Neither could they get along without the
company of woman when they wished
to express the acme of elegance las in
Fig. 12), or of beauty Gas in Fig. 13), or
OF sportlve Joyousness las in Fig. AZ.
But what means this character Gig.
1872 There the character for woman"
stands embracing the character mean
ing "age." And what, pray, can its
meaning be? Why, it means beauti-
full woman or thing of beauty. Of
course it is recalled that they do every
thing backward in the Far East.
All know that there is one sovereign
word in all dictionaries, the lettered
garb that cloaks the one concept of
humans that is dominant, supreme, and
round which all other thoughts spin as
the planets round the sun. In the
English speaking countries it is called
Love.
Like the paths of true love, the Chi
nese character for it is not the simplest
1t is fashioned out of three. The first is
the character for truth" Gig. 16), the
second means heart" Gig. 10, and
the third, friend" Gig. 1Sl. In other
words, the fashioner of the Chinese
telegraph, after ages of thought and
living, finally succeeded in weaving a
garment worthy the greatest and CEN

the roof of truth he placed heart

Most certainly more than twenty-five
centuries have come and gone since the
birth of this character; for it had been
old long before Confucius was born.

There is only one thing that covers great man. And

Most charming and naive-is it not?-this elemental
opinion of man of his precious self! Of course if the
author of the Chinese characters was OF the civilized
twentieth century, he doubtless would have fashioned
the character for heaven" thus, "1AI," which,
everybody see, reads II am t!' After all is said
and done, human nature is the same, east and west and
the twain have many basic, elemental meeting ground
in spite of the fashionable of Mr. Kpling True
besides being frank and charming this Chinese charac
ter for heaven is rank with the nauseatng odor of
downright conceit. With all that, hardly see how
the egots of the author of Chinese characters could
have mantled the cheeks of the writer of the first chap
of Genesis with the blush of shame And countless
generations of good Christians have read with salts

The character for IMAM is sometimes written in
Figure 4, when it forms part of another character; when
1t serves as prefix for example, in Figure 5. This
character made famous by the greatest Chnaman
known to history whom the East calls the master and

facing each other to give birth to ''charity."

Artist and Counterfeiter,

There used to be an old German
counterfeiter in this country who was
a veritable wonder with the brush and
pen. This man literally painted pic
lures of twenty dollar notes which
were works of art He used no tools
except his pens and brushes, and it
took him q week to do the portrait of
banknote. He figured that his
handicap was worth about So day
and worked under the idea that the
world owned him a fair living and
should not object if his talent led him
toward portrait painting. with twenty
dollar bills for models. Even Jail
terms failed to impress him seriously
with his wrongdoing. A collector OF
curios once offered $500 for one Of his
specimens Of bill portraiture. and the
value of some others was said to be
even greater. so marvellous was the
delicacy Of his brush work.

A Cunnjnq Little Bird.

A naturalist had been searching for
the eggs of the little dunlin in Siberia
and came upon a nest The bird quiet
ly slipped off and began to walk
around the man, now and then pecking
on the ground. as if feeding. seldom
going more than six feet from him and
often approaching within eighteen
inches The tameness of the bird was
almost ludicrous. She seemed so ex-
tremely tame that the man almost
thought for the moment that he could
catch her. and. getting on all fours. he
crept quietly toward her. AS soon as
he began to move from the nest the
birds manner entirely changed She
shuff1ed along the ground as If lame.
She dropped her wings. as If unable to
fly. and occasionally rested on her
breast with dropping wings. as If dy-

NATIVE SONS BEAT THE JAPANESE

AS though ito make amends for
their play of last Sunday the Native
Sons of Hawaii were out yesterday
with a class of ball as good as any
they have yet put up, and in beating
the Japanese to the tune of tive-one
they performed a praiseworthy feat.
True, the Japanese did not play good
ball, but the game was fast AMI
snappy. Every man on the Native
Sons team seemed to be on his met
tie and only once during the nine
innings did a fielder break down,
Hamauku offending by throwing wildly
to third with a base runner between
second and third.
An Expensive Error.
However, that single error was
most expensive one. Markham could
not possibly reach the ball and
Franco trotted home, netting the only
run for the Japanese. Not only was
Hamauku's error costly in this regard,
but it also lost Lota a record. Up
to that stage of the game, the sev-
enth inning, Lota had not been hit
for even a single, and not run had
been scored, so that he was in fair
way to equal the no-run, no-hit record
held by Apau. But Hamaullu spoiled
it, and though Lota finished up with
a no-hit game, there was that one
run between him and the record. 1t
was really hard luck for the pitcher
Native Sons Always Dangerous.
Though it was in the sixth inning
that the Sons scored their first run,
they were dangerous from the very
start of the game, having a man on
bases in each inning Up to the sixth
four men had walked and one had
reached first on an error, but no one
had succeeded in crossing the plate.
Rice Starts Run-Getting.
But in the sixth Rice started off
with a hit to the right garden, the
first hit of the game, and that gave
4 w. Desha a chance to sacrifice him
to third after Rice had stolen sec
ond. Then Rice began to steal home
as D. Desha brought off bunt, leav-
ing the ball within inches of the
plate. OF course, Rice got home, as
Hoopii had difficulty in 5cooping in
the sphere. While this was going on

showing their best form, The games
were enjoyed by the spectators as
well as the players.

Dave Desha was speeding to first,
which he gained on firsts error. lie
also stole second on Hoopii's weak
throw and made third as Kualii hit
to short leaving Chillingworth with
the ball, undecided whether to throw
to first or third. He did neither and
both men made the bases. After
Kualii had stolen second Hamauku
made the second and last hit of the
match, sending the ball to the center
garden and scoring both Desha and
Kua1ii. Emulating Rice, Desha and
Kualii, Hamauku stole second, Hoopii
again throwing weakly and the base
runner reached third on Dreier's
grounder to pitcher. Wakita's error
in the center field, following Mark
hams hit, permitted Markham to
score, bringing the tally to four.
That one error by Hamauku oc-
Cured in the next inning, scoring
Franco, who had gained first by being
hit by pitcher, and had stolen second
That was the Jap's only opportunity.
Errors Add the Last Run.
The final run was added by Lota
in the seventh. He got to first on
Frances error, advanced on Rices
sacrifice and scored on firsts error In
throwing to third. That about tells
the story of the game. There was
plenty of good play but it was Drac
tically all done by the Native Sons
Six of the nine players on the Japan
csc team were debited with errors
and of the remaining three one al
least, Catcher Hoopii was away of
in his throwing though he was lucky
not to be charged with an error.
Cons Have Star Players.
Markham played a brilliant gamc
at third and Dreier was also at tho
top of his form at first. Catcher Ra
phael did we'll with the big mitt, snap
ping the balls up with great dexter
ity. With Rice at first, w Deshf
popped a fly to pitcher and Medeiro'
brought off another double, just Al
was done last Sunday. Lota pitched
well, though he only struck out TIVE
and walked one, the strong supDor
he received making up for his non
success in strike outs. Medeiro
pitched good game for seven strik,
outs, but he walked four and did no
receive a similar support to Lota.

KEIOS OPEN WITH FAST
CAME AGAINST ST. LOUIS

Though the Keio players were
rushed from the Persia to the Athletic
Park yesterday afternoon they jumped
into the first game of the Honolulu
series with a dash, displaying great
brilliancy on the bases and in the
field and beating st. Louis in a five
inning game by six runs to one. 1t
was ragtime tune from the first
pitch, for the speed shown by the Wis
itors fairly ratified the st. Louis boys
off their feet and the enthusiastic
Japanese fans helped in the discom-
future of the locals.
Bushnell Batted Out.
Henry Bushnell was tried as pitch
er, but after six runs had been scored
off him in Two innings he was yanked
off the mound and Barney Joy went
in to lead the attack. Barney walked
the first two men up, but he then
found the plate and the next three
men up died at the plate. Thence to
the end of the fifth Barney held the
Keios down to not a single hit, strlk-
ing out three. But the damage had
already been done, that single run in
the first and those five in the second
being more than enough to rout the
ST. Louis.
G. Bruins Makes Costly Error
G. Bruins was responsible for the
first run, for he dropped an easy
throw from second baseman and let
Sasaki occupy first The base runner
was advanced on Kanh's sacrifice and
made third on Miyaki's foul fly to first,
scurrying between the bases while
Bruins looked round after making the
catch. Koyama missed the third strike
and should have been out, but Catcher
Achi, who needs considerable practice,
dropped the ball. The batter sped for
the base and beat the ball by the mar.
rowest of margins, while Sasaki
crossed the plate. After Suyase had
struck out En- Sue and Chillingworth
and G. Bruins had expired on a groun.

and nine men faced Bushnell before
the side was retired

Wrestling and Fencing.

The exhibitions of Japanese wrest-
ling and fencing were also well worth
seeing, the ring being surrounded
with spectators while the various COM
petitions were being fought out. Wada
won the fencing display after five con-
tests had been pulled off, and Hama
guruma came through successful in
the wrestling tournament, in which
half a dozen japanese competed.
Honolulu Wins Relay.
The half-mile relay race between
the Kent and Honolulu was won cas-
lily by the local boys, Bill Rice, w.
Desha, Harold Godfrey and G. Ma
noha cutting out the distance in one

twenty-five seconds per man for the
22O yards.
Soldiers Play Ball.
To make the sports thoroughly rep,
! resentative a ball game was played
on the inner reserve between the
Second Infantry and Fort Ruger, the
Infantry getting away with the game
three to one. The game was very
keen and only four fair hits were
scored, three by the losers and a sin
gle by the winners.

second sack. Following Sasai's hit
to third, Goto sped for the plate, but
Markham, throwing in his usual UNI
erring style, sent the ball to the catch
er in time to put the runner out.
Kanki famed, and the hopes of the
Saints were raised, but they were not
reckoning on Miyake having a two
Dagger ready to hand out. This he
did, bringing home Narazaki and
Sasaki. Tokahama gained first on
hit between first and second, which
was fielded by G. Bruins, but there was
no one covering first and Bruins rightly
held the sphere. AS Kusaka famed,
the spell ended, but it was enough
to make the most rabid of the st.
Louis fans forever forsake their team
No wonder the Japanese fans reared
with glee. They were justified, for
the exhibition of the Saints was about
as bad as possible.
Joy to the Rescue.
However, Barney Joy came to the
rescue, and after making a very shaky
start, he held the Keios down for the
rest of the game. The only run scored
by the Saints was that credited to
Franco. He made first on hit to
second, went to second on a wild pitch
and reached third on Goto's error at
first. He scored on an error by
Catcher Miyake, who threw yards over
seconds head in an effort to cut off
H. Bruins. That was all, and the game
ended in a 6-1 victory for Keio.
Hasty Decision Robs Saints.
In the last inning Umpire Bowers
made an error which cost the Saints
run, for with Bushnell on first En-
Sue handed out three-bagger to the

it foul. Had there been a base umpire
in the game it certainly would have
