The feature of the game was a triple play by Baltimore in the eighth inning. Joyce had hit safely and Abbey took first on balls. McGuire hit hard to Jennings, who passed the sphere to Bonner, catching Ab- bey. Bonner threw to Brouthers, on which McGuire was out, and then the big first baseman sent the ball to third in time to catch Joyce, who had passed the bag. Mercer pitched a creditable game. Off Brown, Hasamaear made a single and a triple, Cartwright a single and a double, Joyce two singles and Tebeau a single.

Glasscock, while at the bat, kicked because he claimed Hawley was trying to hit him with the ball.

The registration closed on the 2ist, and in Honolulu alone 1,507 have signed the} rolls and registered themselves as voters. | This, although seemingly small, is never-} theless a good showing, when the fact that | only 2,800 voters registered at the last elec-! tion under royalist regime is considered. } As will be seen by the following state- ment, only 185 natives have taken the oath| Of allegiance to the provisional government.

THE WHITE HOUSE ELEVATOR |! in lawns sodded and seeded, Progress of the Work on the Old Ford’s Theater Building. ‘The Report of Col. Operativns o: Wilson of the Public Buildings and Grounds During April. Col. John M. Wilson has made a report to the chief of engineers of operations on pub- lc buildings and grounds during the month of April. In regard to the Executive Man- sion he says that estimates have been pre- pared and submitted at the request of three Senators for an elevator for the office por- tion of the mansion. The usual care nas been extended to the large and vaiuabie col- lection of plants in the conservatory and green houses, and the propagation of bed- ding plants and summer and winter tiower- ing plants has been continued. Plans and estimates have been prepared for a new superstructure for the main conservatory. | Some few artieles o” china and giass for the state dining room service have been or- dered. The Washington Monument has been | maintained in excellent condition during the month, and no acts of vandalism whatever have occurred. During the first week of the month the operation of ali machinery was Suspended, and the boilers, tue pipe line, the elevator machinery, dynamo, etc., were carefully overhauled. painted inside and out. The elevator and its machinery were inspected on the 24th ultimo and found to be in excellent condi- tion. There were 11,743 visitors to the top of the monument during the month, 4,568 of whom used the stairway, making a total cf 915,409 persons who have ascended since the Shaft was opened to visitors on October 9, Isss. Ford’s Theater Building. Under the terms of the act of Congress, approved Merch 12, 1894, making an appro- priation of $11,058 for the further repair of this building, operations were commenced on April 2. During the month eighteen brick piers, resting on concrete foundation, were erected in the cellar for the purpose of carrying the iron columns which sustain the fioor beams of the second story; one pier, which stands immediately over the large boilers, rests on iron beams properly placed to carry the necessary weight; nine- teen holes have been cut through the first floor and the same number through the sec- ond floor, and brick foundations for eleven of the second floor columns have been com- pleted. A thorough system of shoring the first, second and attic floors and the roof, previ- ous to tearing down the east wall, has been completed; a section of the roof removed and the east wall torn down to the floor of the second story. The upper portion of this wall was found to be of the poorest quality of salmon brick and lime mortar, and was easily removed. Upon reaching a portion of the wall laid at a later date, under the direction of Gen. Meigs, is was found to be of the best quality of materials, Inid in cement mortar, and the operation of tearing | down becaine slow and laborious. Every effort is beiug made, Col. Wilson says, to push the work as rapidly as possible, so Uhat the building can be occupied at the earliest practicable day. “We have been somewhat cramped for room in tearing down the rear wall,” he says, “but it is anticipated that the laying of the new wall will commence by May 10, and be completed early in June, when the plasterers will at once go to work. In the meantime it is hoped that the iron work, | the increased light and ventilation, will be | well advanced, and the fire escapes started. | It is probable that the building will be ready tor occupancy by August 1, and pos- sibly at an earlier date.” The White House Grounds.
