kauai LEAGUE
NORTHUMBERLAND

DlHUE, May I5.-From every plan
tation which is putting up bali team
for the coming series, comes favora-
bic reports as to preparedness of the
ground. This is indeed welcome news,
tcr in the past, there has been con-
siderable comment on the condition of
some of our diamonds. The Lihue
Park has been treated with a coating
of dirt and is being rolled by one of
our big steam rollers. There is no
doubt that by the time play bali is
sounded that all will be in readiness
for the start. The league will be rep
resented by six teams this year, Wal
mea having decided to remain out,
owing to the apparent lack of choice
material This is a regrettable fact,
since the Waimea team last year did
some pretty good work. The Garden
Island has ordered 500 score cards,
which it is hoped will be on the
ground by the opening game. They
are something entirely pew in this
line, and are sure to prove popular.

PUNAHOU TAKES
SCALPS Q
ST. LOUIS
A Splendid Diamond Battle Is
Marred Only in Tenth, When
ViCtorS Drive Eight
Over Plate

In a splendid teninning battle on.
Alexander Field. Punahou, Saturday
afternoon, Punahou defeated st.
Louis by score of 10-2. The tenth
frame in which Punahou ran up eight
runs, was the only inning that was
not up to the mark. 1t was in the
tenth frame that Dunn, the st, Louis
pitcher, went up in the air and in
that frame every Punahou player but
two brought in run and Wishard,
Punahou third baseman, brought in
two Until the tenth frame the score
was % Both teams were playing
incompatible baseball and the excite
ment among both groups of support
ers was intense Punahou had the
lead on the Saints up to the seventh
inning with a score of two to nothing.
The Saints made one run in the
seventh and another in the eighth
thereby tying the score. 1t was at
this point in the game that Punahou's
superiority first began to make itself
evident The Saints had the last in
ming and one run would have won
the game In the last of the ninth
frame the ST. Louis came to bat. The
first man up was out on fly TO right
field. The second man made a one
base hit to center field From first
base he stole second and third but
that was as far as he got. The third
and fourth men up were out on caught
flies to second base and right field.
In the tenth inning Dunn awaited and
the game went to Punahou.
The game was one of the best of
the season from every point of view.
Individual stars were evident on both
teams Dunn's pitching in the tenth
inning by no means spoiled all his
excellence in the first of the game.
In the fifth frame, owing to an I'M
fortunate accident to Branco, the
Saints catcher. Nye, star center
fielder, was brought in to Branco's
place and Fernandez, substitute,
was put in Nye's place.
"Bill' Inman twirled for Punahou
and although he pitched an excellent
game he was not up to his usual class.
Inman scored eight strike-outs, walk
ed one and allowed only six hits.
Dunno scored thirteen strike-outs,
walked none but allowed fourteen
hits. Inmans speed was good but
his control was not what it was when
he pitched against the Saints in the
first game. Inman, played a cool and
steady game, not once losing his self
control.
Wishard, the Punahou third base
man, was playing better on Saturday
than usual He stopped several bad
balls and got the man on first His
good playing brought the Punahous
out of bad corners several times and
his one error during the game was
due to an accident. Baldwin, catcher
for the Punahous, also played a fine
game.
Several of the Saints played a fine
game, but they were not UP tc the

snake bites astonished Alexander the
