We suffered no checks. The rapidity of our counter attacks pre- vented the memy from attaining the eft bank of the Yser canal and from establishing a strong position on the right bank.
 In these combats we inflicted neavy losses on the enemy Our actual front was established only two kilometers Cabout a mile and quar- ter) behind the original front. Our men are now provided with means to protect them against similar attacks with asphyNiatine bombs
 Being unable to pierce our lines and compel us to give np possession of Ypres, the Germans used a ma- rine gun, firing d distance of 3S dlo- miles (about 23 l-2 miles1 on Duu- kirk This gun, which ceased firing after two days, did damage of no military importance
 "On April 23 the Germans eudeav- ored to retake Les Eparges with three divisions Heavy fighting oe- cured in the ueighborhood of st. Bemy and Calonue and on Les Epar- ees heights, but the Germans were repulsed by counter attacks. The number of losses was shown by great heaps of bodies It may be said that the three divisions were dcci- mated.
 Important progress had been made by the allies in the Bois Le Petre, the Bois DAHy and the Bois De Monmare. On April 20 the Ger. mans attacked and captured the sum init of Hartmans Wctlderkopf hut their success was brief We retook the summit the following day, fore ing the enemy a distance of 210 me ters beyond the crest.

Weidner started to wind up, young
Chun started for home, and Ace, in the
middle of his windup, seeing the little
celestial already half way between
third and home did not complete the
motion and started to catch Chun.
Ace, of course, committed a grieyous
balk, and Andes signaled Chun to
cross the pan for the count of four
in that inning. .>#
Good fielderse Sure they are all
excellent fielders and the advance no.
tees in that respect are true. How
different they handled themselves yes
terday in the real contest than when
they made their first fielding showing
last Thursday afternoon In practise!
And then. taking into consideration
the fact that the boys are still fresh
from their long sea voyage, their field
ing becomes marvel Only one mis-
take was charged by Scorer Shuman
to the invading aggregation. Think of
only one error for the whole 10 in
nings. That in itself constitutes rec
ord to be proud Of And the army
should not have any kick or excuse
for being defeated by better team.
They were outplayed, outbatted, out
run and outfieided by the invading
Hawaiians. H. ."E il.
In the person of Kan Yen, the cap
tain of the Chinese team, the Manila

leagues caliber. Kan hits the ball
at will, fills third and catcher's pc.
sitions remarkably well, and is won.
der in pegging accuracy. .r.
Taken by and large, these Honolulu
men are cool and brainy ball tossers.
They are still young and there is no
doubt but that with little more ex-
perience in the game they will make
wonderful players.
The Army men, though completely
outclassed in every department of the
game, put up very good quality of
ball During the first seven innings
the soldiers were travelling in a very
smooth sea- They held their oppon-
ents pretty easily But in the begin
ming of the eighth frame the Chinese
boys began to solve Aces delivery.
