Yesterday mail from the mainland

mittee Of the Mid Pacific Carnival
The Oiympians hustling manager left

his arrangements for the Honolulu in

wrote that with Bart b. Burke as cap
tain, formidable aggregation Of semi

wrote that Eddie Burns, who played

some years ago and was the Philadel
phia Nationals mainstay behind the
bat in the recent world 3 series, would
be In the party and that he was also
sanguine that Oscar Witt of the De

The fans can do their share by show
ing the old baseball spirit and turn
ing out. The bali players of the Oahu
League can do their share by accept
ing a cut in the percentage they are
asking while the Park people can also
shave on the percentage they are ask
ing for the rent of the field. The base
ball committee Of the Carnival is de
sirous of playing fair with all hands and
while they can have the use of MOiliil
Field absolutely free Of charge, they
want TO play the majority Of the game
at Athletic Park. From the way the
Park people talk and also the powers
behind the Oahu League, there is go
ing to be no difficulty in arranging
terms. The failure to secure better
steamship rate than that which pre-
vailed when Venice and the major
leaguers came here means an addition,
nj outlay of $3.50 in fares alone and
this naturally has to be met.

Nicaraguan Canal

Owing to the tying up of the Pana-

the operating divisions, are being fur

being dismissed In a number of cases
employees of the operating division have
been transferred to other division which

creased work, notably the dredging di

close. The school rooters did all k.Cd
of stunts in order to encourage thetr
team and the yells could be head a
