About 6:30 the guests to the number of 40 gather ed around the long table under an extemporized lanai on the Niumalu, beach, every one prepared to do justice to what was coining. The mainstay of the supper was an ex cellent chowder of the well known Coney brand, but this was supple mented by many other toothsome delicacies. As the darkness closed in a monster bonfire illumined the scene with its pyrotechnic glory, while concealed musicians d i s coursed pleasant strains of Ha waiian music. Later in the evening three large boats conveyed the happy party up the river to the strains of fes tive music and peals of joyous laughter. It is asserted that some of the elderly people renewed their youth for the evening, almost beyond recognition. The evening closed with three royal cheers for the hosts. 1 t w T i "". j. a monument to the memory of those who were instrumental in es tablishing the plantation which, by-the-way, was the first sugar plantation established in the Ter ritory of Hawaii. What's Doing In Koloa? What's the matter with TColoa? The people are all so busy and mysterious over there. A certain young lady seemed restless and wore a far-a-way look in her eyes, so I said: "Daisy, what's up?" "Aw uothin'." she answered waltzing away among sweet "Tra-la-la, tra-la-la, lala lalas." I turn ed to the old man. "Say, Jack, is she not a little off?" "No," says he, "she is rehearsing her song for the concert." "Concert?" says I. "What?" says he, "don't you know that the Koloa Library is to have an entertainment? It is to be the greatest ever. Excuse me, old man, but I really must be off to reheasal, myself. Just make your self at home and if I don't find you here o n my return, never mind, so long as we meet at the concert." New Block For Koloa Tax Assessor J. K.

OPEN BU GS The Koloa hospital has hit upon a plan of furnishing fresh-air build ings for its tuberculosis suspects which appears to be accomplish ing great results. The buildings consist of single rooms, screened in on all sides with mosquito net ting, with awnings which are con veniently dropped when necessity requires. The patients occupy ing these buildings are thus practically kept-in the open air at all times, yet never at any time exposed to climatic conditions adverse to that which is most ben eficial. "Plans for more of these buildings are under way," said Miss Waggoner the head nurse, to a rep jrter. on a recent visit to the hospital. Dr. Waterhouse has in vited us to nay a visit to this well regulated institution and we hope to be able to accept his kindness in the early future.

The final score stood 8-4 in favor of the visitors. The game was peacefully enough until the fifth inning, when war was declared. Up to that inning the score was 1-0 in favor of the home team when the Red Sox got two men on bases. A single was knocked out, the man on second scored on a passed ball due Jo the catcher and the other rnnm r irif.fi tr. tnii.. also. The decision which sent him back to th;rd was perfectly correct iccording to the rules, but a dis pute which lasted about t e n minutes had to be held. In the sixth and seventh skirmish, the visitors scored two runs in each. The last half of the seventh was eventful. The McBryde Blues fill ed all the corners with one down, when a n infield grounder ' was stopped by the short stop who tagced the runner at second who was making third and rallied the ball to second, retiring the runner from first. The latter sent the ball home and would have completed a triule nlav had nmip h-tn r,,, at first. The umpire saw none of these plays and dtclared every man safe. The game was held up over twenty minutes. When they continued again they allowtd one man out. The home team got two home in this spasm. The first half of the eighth saw Joe Pacheco show his disgust for the McBrydes bjj knocking the ball into the cane field for a homer. This brought cheers from almost everybody. It was followed by a triple. The Mc Bryde's.gotone man home in their half.'Ih ;tlie "ninth- the McBryde pitcher deliberately balked,, three times only one of them being allowed. Sanborn saw it was use less to kick after the second balk. The visitors brought one more home in this inning. The last half was a goose egg for McBryde. LIHUE The game on the Lihue diamond Sunday between the home team and Koloa, was one f the tamest of the season. The home team simply toyed with the visitors from start to finish. In the 7th. the Koloas scored, and as a result, a little ginger was injectedinto the game, but save this incident, there seemed little o r no excitement throughout the game. The one run is all that saved the Koloas from a whitewash, as the game closed with a score of 9-1 in favor of the home team. Koloa's battery was extremely weak, which threw the main support of the team on the fielders, who did fairly good work. From a scientific point of view the game was not what might have been reasonably expected, but there was one noticeable feature which was the source of some comment, and that was the perfect harmony which prevailed among the two teams. Not a dis puted decision occurred. When we consider that these two teams, when they met last, were ready to fly at each other with bats, their conduct Sunday was the more commendable. WAIMEA The Kawaihau and Waimea teams met on the Waimea field and put up one of the prettiest ex hibition of baseball ever played on the home ground. It was nip-and-tuck, first one, then the other lead ing off. and it was simply any body's game to the very last when the visitors did some extra stick work and won out by 2 scores. The Waimea diamond is a great deception to those who are un familiar with it, in so much as the sand prevents the ball from rolling when it falls, which fact makes it almost impossible to bring in i home run. The sand is also as destructive to base runners, as it is lather uphill business to negotiate a base at record speed, drilling through sand ankle deep. The game Sunday was attended by a crowd of fans which would indi cate no falling off in public interest in baseball. Additional sports cn page 6. SUNDAY'S GAMES
