U in the ! Pacific league games played
last Saturday;- the' Hawails - added an
other , victory, making four straight
winsj, in, a , row when they defeated
the ? SL.fLouIs squad by. a score . of
6 to 4 in seven , innings. The score
might have been ; different if the re
maining two innings were played, for
St. Louis was coming rnp strong dur
ing the latter part of the game. It
was 3:30, however, when the game
was still going on, andVlJmplre J ack
son called ; the game inavor of the
Hawalls.V;. " r-
The losers had' their Infield shifted
back and forth when Lai Sinn and
King Tan did riot -turn out Mark
ham pitched Jgood ball but poor sup
port gave him a defeat rather than a
victory. On- the other hand Mitchell
twirled air-tight ball and held " the
losers to-only six hits. He haa pitched
fn" e very ' game,, played in the second
series' and .won them ail! Kafua Is
going for. the;. iecond series and with
four; wins from the strongest teams,
he" has .very little . to . worry over. It
seems that Mitchell is the only safe
slabster of the Hawaii and whether
he Can ; keep up ; the winning streak
remains to be seen. You Bun played
the best game and made two hits in
three .times to. the rubber.
Crjlhese; Win 1
vin the secohd game of the double
header the - Chinese itcam took the
hard-hitting Healanl nine off the field
7 to 2.- The Healanl boys failed to
hit the ball and were, credited with
twou lonely hits off Kong. The losers
did not have . their full team , out ,and
that v may have . something to . do
with .their defeat, but the Chinese had
beaten them once in the first- series.
' - The winners- started out in the very
first - inning and , tallied four - times
with -three, hits off McTighe. He
lasted but one inning and was forced
to give way to Bushnell and the Chi
nese boys hit him for three - more
runs which . were not needed as the
four scored in, the initial frame were
enough to win "Slowball" Kong was
In good form and held the Healania
safe all the way. He was in a bad
hole, once when the bags were filled
but good playing by his supporters
kept the losers from scoring more
than two runs. The Chinese players
ssys they are going to win the rest
of the games In the' next three weeka
of T play, and next Sunday will play
theJ McKinley bunch. Clarence Chang
and Wah Han were the leading stick
ers, getting in two safeties apiece.
Kong Tal Pong came In with a homer
with one man on base. "
Y; M. C. A. BOWLING
Tonight at 7:30 on the "Y" alleys,
the All-Service and the Y. M. C. A.
bowling teams, meet for the third
match of their series. The Y. M. C.
A. team has won the two matches so
far and one can't tell who wtll win
the next match because the Service
team may pull the same stunt they
did with; the. Chinese and take the
next, three. A good match is assured
and both teams are going, to be pres
ent in full force. 1 . The probable line-

Cummings Hammered Hard By
25th Inf. Wand Wielders;
Jasper and Pruitt Good
A new way has been discovered to
down the 25th - Infantry team. It
wasat proposed yesterdsy afternoon
at Molllili field and as a result ths
Wreckers trampled on the Rug er
ianta by the score of 13 to 4, which
Is some considerable trampling, ac
cording to all the laws or eld Nat.
Pastime.
Those Wreckers can be beaten it
you go about it right" said one ar
dent fan who had watched the bomb-
, ardment during the day. , After said
ardent fn had been consigned to the
filbert works, or shattered dome foun-
; dry, as ene would say in the classics.
- the fan refused to be downed. v .
'' "Give me the nine best players In
Honolulu outside or the Wreckers, and
m beat them," said A. F. -You will
like the deuce. It cant b did, said
a Doubting Thomas. Then tha ardeat -
personage made the following sug
gestion: -. 1
irs a Good Way ;-
v Allow the opposing teast to hit witk
bass viols, and secure billiard cues
. for the Wreckers. Chain .Moore to
I third base. Give Johnson a chocolate
soda straw to bat with, and move the
left field fence beyond KaimukL Then
give the Wreckers rubber boots, and
force them to throw left-handed, and
you win have a close ' game. ;
. After the -game of yesterday, one
Is forced to believe that that A. F.. per
sou age isn't all vacuum inside and ap- '
per, superstructure. They refused t
be downed, and if there ia any ques
tion about their ability to wield the
bludgeon. Just ask Cummings, who -was
on the mound for the Giants for
four innings, which seemed about alx
years to- the heretofore undefeated "
pitcher. '- i zi'- v.. i:

.Cummings held, the Wreckers safe
for' one inning, and then came the
deluge. He didn't have any fult to -find
with the fielding, as the Ruger
ites gsve a great exhibition of field
ing. ' For eight t Innings, ' thi Kiiger
defense held up wonderfully, and Da
vis at short turned a number of base
hits, Into outs. -Ruger outfielded the
Wreckers until the ninth, when, ths
old club pulled an Art-Smith with
five' bobs,'-..--... 7.'. : ; -.
. There , was a large and enthusiastic
audience but, and every one and his
brother was waiting to see what Cum
mings; could do. - He did wonderfully
wen. For the first Inning he failed
to hit the Wrecker bats, but improved
in the third, and succeeded In hitting
the bat every time. ; '.
When the Wreckers, came to town
to join In the ceremonies incidental ,
to the presentation of the cup to Ro '
gan, they were after Cummings' scalp,
and they surely landed it- The sad-
destof all came in the third inning,
when Jasper, who haa a : batting av
erage about the size ; of a skinny
mosQuito's collar, came through with
a. homer over .the left" field fenct. It
was a real hit and would have been
good for four bases 'on any lot .

ball player, was presented - with a '
beautiful, cup by the Oahn-Servica ,

crowd gave Rogan a-good cheer, knd '

bitting the ball. He flew out to Wo-;
