THE MAUI NEWS, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 24, 1914
TELLS H
MAUI AT LITTLE EXPENSE
Rest Houses All Over Island, and Uniform Rate of 50
Cents Per Meal Basis of Plan Says Trail and
Mountain Club Will Show Haleakala For $25.
According to Alexander Hume Ford,
the Trail and Mountain Club In Hono
lulu will soon open up its olilces with
the Wells-Fargo Express Co. and go
into the activo part of the tourist
business, sending Its members from
Honolulu to the heights oi Haleakala
and return for the nominal fare of
J25; this to familiarize them with the
most wonderful tight in tho islojids
that they may Induce theK" friends as
well as tourhts to 'make this trip.
The trip at. this price will be made
po3slllo to club members in Honolulu
by tho club members in Maul, and it
will mean that homes will be taken
at Paia instead ol at Ollnda. For the
tourist, and those who prefer luxury
to experience, autos will take tho
visitors to Idlewild, where they will
he taken cue of and sent to the sum
mit, by Mr. Worth Aiken but not
at tho ?25 rate. In telling his plans,
Ford sas:
"The Trail and Mountain Club will
charge and accept no commissions
and there will be no middle man's
profits. Each person or corporation
will receive tho exact amount charged
for the work It does and in this way
everyone will benefit even tho tou
1st. Gilbert Brown of Haiku, ono of
the Junior charter members of the
Trail and Mountain Club five years
ago, and now probably the most com
petent guide in tho, islands, will bo
placed in charge of members and
tourists sent on the Haleakala trip
by the Trail and Mountain Club, and
for tho present either ho or young
Jack Walkef will conduct the visitors
to the summit.
"The Trail and Mountain Club has
successfully taken up with Mr. W. F.
I'ogue, Mr. V. A. Anderson, Hack
feld & Co., and otheis the establish
ment of rest houses around tho Island
of Maui, whore the charges will be
fifty cents a meal and fifty cents a
night'o accomodation. These rest
hoUBPh! will bo about ten miles apart,
and tho only one that it will bo nec
essary to build will bo that in Halea
kala crater, which will be located
near the pond where tho crater opens
Into Kaupo Gap.
"For several ycara tho Outrigger
Canoo Club at Waikiki, Honolulu, has
maintained a commissary storehouse,
whore every kind of canned goods
have boon kept, until it has boon

the most popular, tho most rt I'onable
and serviceable. Every day at tho
Outrigger Club there aro from a score
to two hundred people who patronize
this commissary and either prepare or
have their meals prepared on tho
grounds under tho hau trees and the
experience of this sen ice will prove
of considerable value in arranging for
tho stocking of the rest houses on

Venice Too Expensive.
Provided it is possible to arouso
sufficient interest in tho matter
among tho ball players of Maul, local
fans aro to havo tho opportunity, of
seeing tho crack Punahou champions
In action within the next few months.
A committee of tho Maul Athletic As
sociation has tho matter In hand, and
provided it is found possible to fret
together a really representative team,
to hold up tho Maul end of tho propo
sition tho contract will bo closed.
At a meeting of tho Association
held last Tuesday evening, (at which,
by tho way, not a single ball player
was present) propositions were con
sidered from II. G, Lowry for a visit
from tho Venice team, duo in Hono
lulu next month, and from tho team
of tho 25th Infantry, the black cham
plons of tho servico league, as well
as tho Punahous' proposition. Tho
Venlco visit was considered out of
question, on account of tho expense
that would bo involved in caring for
tho twenty odd members that will
make up that outfit. Tho Punahous,
who won the Honolulu championship
this year, seem to offer tho best pro-

meals.
"The two shillings a meal and two
shlHJngs a night's lodging is the uni
form rate adopted throughout New
Zealand at tho rest houses of tho New
Zealand Government Tourist Bureau,
and this is practically the same rate
at tho rest houses of Java, tho Malay
States, in Australia and in Japan. The
Trail and Mountain Club will have tho
trails and roads ofMauf marked with
sign boards, and will issue maps and
pamphlets describing these for distri
bution through the Promotion Com
mittee. "It is proposed to conduct tho rest
huts on Maul merely as club houses
and not as hotels. A similar system
Is now being placed in operation en
tirely around the island of Oahu, but
the great trip that the Trail and
Mountain Club will feature will be
that to the summit of Haleakala, down
through the crater, and Kaupo Gap,
and around the island by way of tho
Ditch trail.
"In other countries at tho end of
every few years, about every fifth

Is believed that by creating a system
of rest houses around Maui that the
day of good hotels on that Island will

will now feel that it is not necessary

lodging or for a satisfying meal.

Waaloku Wins
Hot Game In
11 Innings
Second Game of Local Championship
Series a Fine Exhibition
Pleasure Marred By Ohjectionable
Rooting.
Lovers of tho national pastime who,
intentionally or otherwise, failed to
attend last Sunday's game between
the Wallukus and Puunencs In the
championship series of 1914 at Wallu
ku Park, missed a rare treat. It Is
not often that such an exciting gamn
of cloven Innings with a score of 5
o 4 is witnessed. In fact, barring
a few fumhles.ho game was played
n real championship style. Walluku
made the winning run and thus tied
with Puunenc, which took tho first
game.
Tho attendance, was fair sized; tho
absence of "lady fans" being appar
ent. The rooting and cheering
throughout tho game was in a largo
measure of true "baseball quality,"
although a bunch of would-be fan
did considerable to spoil the after
noon's enjoyment by tho language
used. Rooting is almost a necessity
in baseball, but when it is couched in
language that is not only objection
able to the players, but annoying to
the spectators, it should bo squelched,
and the sooner it is done, better at
tendances will be tho result.
Bill" Chlllingworth handled the in
dicator in fine style. In the fifth in
ning his decision calling Cockett out
for being touched by a coacher whllo
on third bag, was disputed by the
Wallukus. The umpire was on to his
Job, however, as the rule is very plain.
It Is a new amendment and was en
forced for the first tlmo on Maui last
Sunday.
The batteries were: Puunone, Su-
yeda and Ito; Wallukus, Meyer, Bal,
and Pombo.
Tomorrow's gamo should bo a
corker as both teams have been hard
at practice all week.. Each has a leg
In the three out of fivo and the winner
of tomorrow's game will havo tho
advantage of a one game lead. Judg
ing from the Interest being taken a
largo attendance will bo there. The
game has been called for 3 p. m.,
Instead of 3:30, as it gets rather too
dark during tho last part of the game.
Perhaps it will not be amiss to call
the umpire's attention to violations of
tho coaching rules. Last Sunday both
teams were liable to penalties through
the actions of their coachers. A lit
tle more ginger on the part of the
players In going to and coming from
tho field, will Improve the game, and
will bo appreciated by the fans.
The Puunencs wero first to bat hist
Sunday and on a hit and an error
tallied -the first run. Their opponents
failed to connect and Cic score stood
1 to 0.
In tho second, Viola for the Wallu
kus hit through third. Cummings nit
safe and Ollvelra got to tho first
sack on an error. On a wild throw
homo VIela scored the first run for his
side and was followed by Cummings
and Ollvelra on Kahaawlnul'b fumble
of Itodrlgues' blngle.
No additions were made to the run
column until tho fifth frame, when
after two wero down, Clement and
Baldwin scored for tho Puunenes, ty
Ing the score. Tho Wallukus came In
and started by Ilodrigues striking out.
Maxwell reached first on an error of
short and scored on Cockett's long
drive to left. Cockett was touched by
tho coacher while on third hag and
was called out by tho umpire. Bal
and Meyers both hit safe, but the
side retired on Vlela'a fly out to con-
ter.
Meyers then stepped to the mound
for the Wallukus and by a bunt, a
walk and nn error tho Puunones reg-
istered another tally, again tying tho
score.
'From then on to the end of tho
eleventh tho spectators wero treated
to the tightest baseball possible. In
tho ninth tho Kahululs got tho bases
full, but Rodrigues, who played tho
star gamo for tho Vallukus, robbed
Clement of a long bit to left garden,
by a difficult catch, ami Masalchl
took tho strike-out route and closed
their half of the Inning.
In tho tenth Cockett by a pretty
doable put out on second and assist
at first stopped what looked llko
a sure run. Again in tho eleventh
the Kahululs made tho Wallukus feel
that the ghost was up when Baldwin
after ono down drove to center for
two bags and stole third. Carrera
the slugger of tho team, camo up and
as luck would have it, fouled and was
caught out and Kahaawlnul flew ou
to left field, whero once more Rodri-
gues raved tho gamo for his side.
In tho last of tho eleventh, Pombo
tho Walluku back-stop, who all af
ternoon failed to connect with tho
nphere, camo up and layed the willow
for ,a three-bagger .o center. Rodri
gues bunted safe to first, tho bag not
being vY)verpd. Maxwell then hit
to second who, in his hurry to scoop
the ball, booted Jt and Pombo scored
tho wlnnlg run.
Tho lineup of tho teams was a3 fol
