HE WILLRETIRE

Outlook for Success of Game
Here Very Bright; Chinese
Manager Fails to Boost

Kim Luke. one of the many man
ayers of the Chinese baseball team.
says that he will retire from baseball
and then he says that he will stay N
tne game, all in the same day. After
the tactics of yesterday it might be
well for baseball in the vicinity If Kim
Luke does step out. The Pacific
League, the 25th Infantry, Brushers
and All-Stars and a number of Chi.
nese, have been trying to put base
ball back on the map; Kim Luke and
the other manager, Kan Yen, have
been trying to kiln it once more.
On Sunday afternoon the All-Stars
played before more than 1000 peo-
pie, and Lang Akana was not in the
lineup. He agreed to play with the
All-Stars. At the last moment Lang
told Bushaw he would not play. The
reason was because Kim Luke and
Kan Yen objected. They had their
chance to play in the schedule, but
the matter of money, which has
spoiled most of the games here, en-
tered into it. They wanted, with the
opponents, 100 per cent of the receipts
or they wouldn't play.
1t looked as if the Pacific League
was in a hole, but by fast work on
the part of Sam Mott, Bert HushaW
and Ray Gardner, the directors Of the
league, team was lined up. Hushaw
went after the men and lined up a
strong team Akana didn't play. In
addition to asking the big right
fielder not TO play, Kim Luke and his
ecpartner. Kan Yen, refused to Co
operate in making an all-star team.
These are the facts, and if the two
members of the Chinese had any salts
faction out Of it, let them retain It.

his money to see the games, is en-
titled to know.
Despite what was done to attempt
to make the, game failure, record

ten fsths fist two Innings, the play

ers showed to excellent form. Bill
Inman. Vernon Ayau, Fred Swan and
Chino Moriyama deserve a heap OF
credit for going out on the diamond
with but little practise. They went
out there and did their best and the
fielding of this quartet was the best
seen here in some time.
The 25th Infantry have proved that
they want to give the fans of Homo
lulu a good brand of ball. They have
played fair with the other players
and the teams. The Brusners have
done the same and all are satisfied
with playing ball first and looking at
the dollar sign later The fans are
the ones who support baseball and
they are entitled to know these things
If baseball is placed on a good basis
there must be unity. Kim Luke said
that he will retire from the game.
Let it be hoped that this is no fatti
farewell. <.# III. 49,. ....,-

Words of Warning.

In one of his Western addresses few
days ago President Wilson said:.
Let mo tell you very solemnly, you
cannot postpone this thing preparation /.
| do not know what single day will bring
forth. We are daily treading among the
most Intricate dangers. The dangers are
not of our own making, and not under our
control. There is no man in the United
States who knows what single week, a
single day, single hour may bring forth.
know these are solemn things to say to
you, but would be remiss in my duty if l
did not lay before you the facts as they
are.''
In commenting on President Wilson's
addresses the Baltimore Sun, one of the
ablest and most influential newspapers in
the United States, says:
"The people who say there is no need Of
additional armament, and who refuse to be
convinced that there is, can sustain them
selves only by maintaining that the Presi-
dent is either fool or a liar when he ut
tiers this solemn warning. Fortunately
there are few Americans, we believe, so
obsessed by peace fanaticism as to insist
on their own theories in the face of the
Presidents facts. He knows what he is
talking about, and he is putting the case
with moderation. 'All who have ears to
hear, let them hear.'"
