Arranged
Baseball Season Will Begin
on Easter Sunday.
The topic of the day among the
funs is the opening of the coining
baseball season ut Wells' Park on
Easter Sunday, April 11th. "
The grounds' have been eleaned
and rolled and are now in better
shape than ever before. For the
past week a gang of prisoners, under
Jailor Joe Welch, has been at work
and the result of their labor is cer
tainly surprizing. What was con
sidered a very poor baseball park has
been transformed into the' best base
ball'diamond on the island of Maui.
The grandstand will receive 'some
necessary repairs ana everytinng
will be done for the accomodation of
spectators.
The teams that-will compete this
season are the Kahului, llealani and
Morning Stars and each has been
trying t' outdo the other in signing
up players.
The Kahului lias a very valuable
acquisition in Willie Chillihgworth,
who held down the pitcher's box for
the Diamond Head team during last
season in the Honolulu league.
Ayau and English, the Kahului stars
last season, are still with the team
and it is understood that there an
other additions to bo made.
The Healanis have been, strength
ened considerably by the withdraw
al of the Waikapu team and some
' say there are a .bunch of surprizes
coming from that aggregation.
Last, but not least, the Morning
Stars are making one grand effort to
pick up a team strong enough to win
back the Raymond cup, which is
the bone of contention again this
car. It is understood that Messrs.
Lowell and Cumrnings will play with
the Stars, and Mr. Meyers, the new
assistant bookkeeper of the Wailuku
' Sugar Co. , who plaj ed last year with
the IScrkeley team, is also a new
addition, and with M. Correa and
Kealoha of the Riverside League of
"Honolulu will strengthen the Stars
considerably.
The baseball loving public will
undoubtedly bo treated this season
to baseball of the best class. The
Kahuluis iand Morning Stars will
open the season and from all ap
pearances will give the fans.a chance
.,to see them in their best form.
At the meeting of the Directors of
the Maui Athletic Association last
Wednesday evening the following
schedule of games was fixed :

Robello et al.
The criminal ease that occupied
the greatest time for the court and
jury during the term was the rime
that is known as the cattle stealing
case.
After several days of work tjie
case was submitted mud the jury
retired and the evidence and in
structions were argued over, pro
and con for several hours. After
it was evident that, no verdict could
be arrived at the jury was dis
charged and a new triaj was asked
for and will be again heard this
term.
Judge R. P. Quarles defended
the accused while Attornev C. W.

the jury for mercy on the part of
the jury for the woman.
The defendants in the ease were
represented by Vivas and Correa.

meu. in to see the judge on the
statement that be hud expressed a
desire to see them at. once. W. S.
Mountcastle ami Mr. Stee' were
among the number that started on
tho errand.
The case against John Kreitas of
Waihee, who was charged with pig
stealing was no j 1 i prossed for the
reason that the County Attorney
did not believe that the evidence
would warrant a conviction.
The jury was dismissed mitil
Monday at ten oclock at which
time trials of civil cases will bo
again taken up.
Jury waived cases are now being
considered.

The attendance was good. Every

ported. There were alo a large num
ber of delegates present on Sunday
School and Christian Endeavor days.
The Association of Sunday Schools

erintendents from five, as hitherto,
to ten nil all, hut to do away with
the custom of levying a tax to be
paid a superintendent whenever la

At the large Sunday School gath
ering on .Saturday, Uev. Henry P.
Judd, Territorial Superintendent of
the SundaylSchool Association made
a strong appeal for better work and
more systematic Bible study in the
Sunday School.
The services of Sunday were of an
exceptionally high order. The ex
cellent nuwic by the Wahiee choir
and the congregational hymns add
ed much to the worship, while Rev.
E. S. Timoteo's sermon upon "Deep
er Consecration of Life" was an in
spiration to all who heard the vet
eran missionary.
At the afternoon service at Hale
Aloha strong addresses were deliver
ed by Revs. Burnhatn, White and
Kauineheiwa upon the subject "How
can our Pastors and Churches bo
come more olHcient in the work of
the Kingdom of God?"

Turner spoke for an hour upon the
subject of Temperance, giving figures

lines. These were criticized by
members of the Association.
The Maui Association has lost by

D. D., and Rev. Martin Lutera.
Resolutions were passed Expressing
the deep loss of these two earnest
men and of Rev. D. Sereno Bishop.
Resolutions upon Temperance were
sent the Legislature and enforce
ment of law on moral questions
were drawn and sent to the SherifT
of Maui County. These resolution
represented a large voting consti
tuency of Maui.
The fellowship of the Maui
churches was withdrawn from John
Kalino, and John Hihio because of
conduct unbecoming .Christians and
especially ministers, They no longer
have the standing of preachers in
Evangelical churches.
On Tuesday evening social.

Board members was present and a
good representation of all Maui
churches.
Tho sessions are reported as the
best semi-annual association for

Looking For
A Cats Paw
Capt
. Weeden and Friends
have Narrow Escape.
On Sunday Captain Weeden of
the Lurline and a party of friends
came ashore and ill their large auto
mobile started for a ride to Lahaina
and other places of interest on the
island.
On their way they happened to
pass Doctor Dinegar who was out in
his 'line machine. Now report has
it that the Doctor is very proud of
his machine and of his skill in oper
ating the same and to pass him is
worse than a criminal offense.
In a short time the residents of
Wailuku' were startled by loud
words and awful invectives.
The police force and the county
attorney'? office were appealed to
and orders were issued by the whole
sale until County Attorney Coke
had to figuratively sit on the boiling
medico.
lo the utter disgust of some of
the authorities the irate Bob wanted
a third party to act as a cat's paw
for him while ho remained in the
background. He even stated to the
bounty Attorney that he was not
willing to appear as tlie prosecuting
witness nor to bo called as a witness
in the case.
As there was no one else present
...1. 1! . .1 1 i .i . .
who iiim josi in tno race there was
no one who cared enough about the
matter to make a complaint apd
consequently the jovial captain and
his friends were not thrown into the
the dungeons to languish there for
their awful crime, f
County Attorney -Coke sent' for
Captain Weeden and the driver of the
car, and in the presence of District
Magistrate McKay stated that his
attention had been called to the fact
that they had driven faster than the
ordinance per nitted and told them
that .while there had been no war
rant sworn to there could be no ar
rest nor was it his wish to proi-ecute
strangers while others here were vio
lating the law who were not even
arrested. The captain and the driver
stated their side of the ease frankly
anil said that they find no desire to'
break the law and would not do so
again. They were then permitted
to depart.
'It was hut a short time' until
Doctor Dinegar called on the County
Attorney and said that he had writ
ten him a letter, but he did not
want him to pay any attention to it.
That it was W whom he was
after.
County Attorney Coke got the
letter referred to., It 'turned out to
be a notice from the irate gentleman '
to the effect that he considered the
settling of the matter without his.
presence star chamber proceedings
and that he would take certain steps
in the premises at the proper time.
District Magistrate McKay got a
letter of like tenor at the same time
and from the awful sentiments con
tained in the letters in question it is
safe to say that tho medico proposes
to cause the defeat of the County At
torney should ho ever dare to again
run for office and that at a crook of
the little linger of the gentleman
that Judge McKay's official head
will he decapitated.
The funny part-of the whole thing
is that while the gentleman is an
acknowledged past master in the use
of invectives and profanity, ho has
never succeeded in frightening any
body except possibly a few small
children and sonio weak women.
