Mrs. Hartman left for Oklahoma few
hours later.
Miss TrimbIe was a favorite at the
Land Office, where she had been en-
pIoyed since 1852, and she received many
flowers and handsome gifts from her old
associates. Her friends say that she
has frequently mentioned her present
husbands name during the long term
cf her service in the government and
they look upon the marriage Of yester-
day as the renewal Of an old romance,
although the actual engagement Of Miss
1rimble and Judge Tuthill existed barely
few months
Judge Tuthin has been judge of the
Circuit Court of Cook County. ILL.,, since
1887. He is a former commander of the
Military Order of the Loyal Legion, and
was the founder of the first juvenile
court established in this country. He
was a member Of the famous ''3o6'' dele

vention OF 1886. which voted for Gen.
Grant to the last. He served as scout
during the civil war under Gen. John A,
Logan, and was later first lieutenant

The handicap of half-fifteen made
quite a difference and a meeting be-
tween these two players on level
terms ought to provide a good
match. However, that must wait till
the next tournament comes along, for
Judd will no doubt go into 9aldwin's
class, or be half-a-point behind him.
AL Castle deserves credit for com
ing to the rescue when this tourna.
ment was first advocated in the col
umns of The Star, for by putting mp
cup to be won twice by one player
before passing into his possession
for keeps, he has made it reasonably
certain that the tournament will be
a fixture for a couple of seasons At
least. Judging by the amount of in
terest which this competition has
aroused it is fair to assume that
when it is next played the entry list
will be even larger than it was this
time, and twenty-four players are by
far the best response to an invita-
ton to tennis tournament for quite
a while here.

Plans for Sundays Ball Games.

The third round in the baseball Sc
ries of the Oahu League will be play
ed on Sunday afternoon, and fans are
anticipating even better ball than that
of last Sunday, which is asking some.
The Native Sens and the Japanese
cross bats in the opening game Of the
day, and later in the afternoon the
Stars and the Portuguese will clash.
Both games promise to be keen en-
counters, though generally speaking
it is expected that the Japanese and
the Portuguese will win out.
Japs VS.. Native Sons.
The Japanese will play the same
team that successfully turned out last
Sunday and the players are not an.
ticipating a great deal of trouble in
defeating the Native Sons, though in
this they are not in agreement with
the supporters of the Native Sons
The two games already played by the
Native Sons have demonstrated that
the team is still more or less an un
known quantity and anything might
be expected from them. They are
speedy bunch, field well and work
together in a manner which pleases
the fans. For Sundays game the
Native Sons have only one chance to
make, Lota being given his second
chance on the mound in place of Mill
kaa. This is not done because Mill
kaa's pitching last week was not sat
isfactory, but simply because the Japs
are familiar with Milikaa's twirling
and it is thought advisable to SEND
Lota up against them. However, Mi
likaa will be on hand to take up the
attack if Lota meets with failure. The
Japanese will have less confidence
against Lota than they would have II
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-05-12
PLANS FOR SUNDAYS BALL GAMES

opposed to Milikaa. While it is not
expected that the Native Sons will
win against the Japanese, it is quite
on the cards that they may do so, for
the team is still showing improvement
and may bring off a play like that
of last Sunday and score a runner or
two. The Japanese are up against
a stiff proposition and will have to be
at their best to win.
Portuguese Against Stars.
After sustaining two defeats the
Stars will enter upon their third
match on Sunday, when they will meet
the Portuguese. The Punchbowl ar
lists are expected to win out safely,
though the Encouragement of the Stars
may make some difference in the play.
Instead of Williams, All Tin will guard
the third sack and Sing Hung will
take his place at center-f1eld, vice
OSullivan. Hayes will be entrusted
with the attack, as his showing last
week was satisfactory.
Hayes does not pitch a speedy
ball" remarked Manager Marcallino
this morning, "but he sends them over
the plate slow very far, usually drop
ping into a fielder's mitt."
Williams will be kept on the bench
to be available if Hayes should fail
to hold the Portuguese down, but 9th
erwise Hayes win keep on with his
pitching.
The Portuguese win play Manuel
Joseph at first and Freitas at short
stop, while Pedro and Soares will form
the battery as usual.

pionship Journeys will be commenced
next Wednesday, for the mems sin.
giles is scheduled to start up on that
date, to be followed later on by mems
doubles, ladies singles and mixed
doubles.
1t is hoped that at least eight play
ers will enter the singles competi-
tion, thus providing a first round,
semi-final and final. AL Castle, Ath-
erton Richards, A. NJ. NOVEL; and 4.
D. Collins are practically certain to
enter and it is hoped that Dick
Cooke, r. Sinclair, Young Willie Elk
lund and several others will also go
in. There is no reason why L. NJ.
Judd and S. A. Baldwin and players
of that caliber should not enter
OF course, it is generally consid-
cred that al Castle will successfully
defend his claim to the championship
title. Castle has been playing in ex-
