The golf tournaments for the White
Rock Cup are a thing Of the past, the
twenty-sevenlh tournament for that
cup having been Ilayed and won yes
terday by Austin White, champion
golfer of the Territory. This famous
cup which has been played for many
times in the past two or three years
has been stubbornly fought for by a
large number of golfers in the Terri
tory, and as the conditions to win the
cup were such that one man had to
win three times before it could be-
come his personal property, the golfers
have tried very hard to win the cup.
White and Simpson are the only ones
in the Territory who have won the cup
twice. White won the first leg on
the cup last July at Moanalua, and the
second time February 16 at Haleiwa.
Every one who has ever won leg
on the cup has had his name engraved
on it, and the winner of the cup in
years to come will be able to look back
with a good deal of interest on the
many matches that he has played tc
finally win the cup. John Evans fin
ished second with a score of "a, win
ming the case OF White Rock.
The scores turned in yesterday arr

cut to lengths by a buzz saw driven by
the power of his Model c. Winton car.
A belt ran from the saw to a right rear

it to revolve, while the left rear wheel
was held stationary by contact with
the ground. Mr.. Hayden says: Con

must be one OF those making the cross
country run.
1t was not quite as muddy as the
Studebaker, but it showed that 1t
had been somewhere and that the
roads had not been as smooth as they
might be.
Those in the car were p. T. Gillette,
driver, Robert Morton, mechanic, and
e. d. DAILY, observer. Mr.. DAILY
stated that the worst roads they had
to contend with were in Virginia, and
while in that state it took them sixty
seven hours to make seventy-seven
miles. On the second day out they
lost their speedometer, so don't know
just how far they went, though they
believe it was in the neighborhood
of / 800 or 1,400 miles.

In front of J. w. Leavitts place
there is a car that has the unusual eX-
perience of having been immersed in
the waters of the Pacific ocean for
twenty-four hours. The machine, a
REQ roadster, was on the steamship
Pomona when that vessel went ashore
off Fort Ross on the Sonoma coast a
week ago, and when the Pomona set
tied down the automobile was some
where about ten feet below sea level.
When it was finally gotten out an in
surance appraiser was sent to look it
over and fix the damages. Just to
show that it was still in good working
order, the appraiser ran it to this city,
distance of 200 miles, under its own
power, and this, too, in spite of the
fact, according to Mr.. Pedlar of the
Leavitt Company, that several fish
were found in the crank case.

The first baseball game Of the sea-
son between two of the major league
teams was played Saturday afternoon
on the league grounds between the
Saints and the Diamond Heads and re-
suited in victory for the former by the
score of 70.
Up to the end of the eighth inning
the score stood 80 in favor of the
Saints and was baseball of the best
variety, but II. Williams lost his head
out in left field, and the result was four
runs were piled up by last years cham
piOns.
Bill Chillingworth was in the box for
the Diamond Heads and pitched good
game throughout If he keeps up
during the season the way he started

plain about.
Johnny Williams was in the box
for the Saints and also pitched good
ball, Barney JOY held down first for
the Saints, but was not in his usual
form.

ANOTHER BOY ELECTRICIAN.

Bennett Brown, pupil in Kaahuma-
nu school, is another young fellow in
teresting himself in electricity and he
is thinking to install a wireless sta
ton at his home.
Often Brown calls on Archie Sin
clair, whose wireless achievements
were reported in The Star the other
day, when the two lads collaborate on
some improvement in electrical de-
vices.
Brown is also interested in photo
graphy and the two boys take orders
which help them in experimenting.
Browns speciality is copying from 9TH
err pictures, in which he has had much
success.
Sinclair and Brown in vacation go to
different parts of the island taking
pictures, which they hope will be worth
something when they go east. Both
look forward to useful and lucrative
employment withlocal concerns.

From time TO time the conditions
of the road necessitated the securing
of mules to haul the machine out of
the holes. At Broadnax, N. c., the
Studebaker ran into a hole and
smashed a front wheel. Driver YER

wright, decided to rebuild the wheel
and continue until new wheel could
overtake him. This he did, cutting
the spokes out of the green wood in
the woods This helped to save the

account.

WASHINGTON'S HEIRS.
Discovery of Ohio Property Brings
5000 of Them to Light.


Over 5000 heirs-at-law of George
Washington, father Of his country, yet
a childless man, have recently been
found in different parts of the United
States through the recent discovery
that there is large tract Of land in
Ohio which belongs to the first Presi-
dent of the United States, having been
decided to him many years ago.
These heirs, through Lawrence
Washington, who has a position in the
Congressional Library at Washington,
are preparing to make a fight for the
property. Should they succeed through
the courts, the: will very probably
deed the land back to the State of
Ohio for a big national park to be
known as Washington Park.
OF all these 5000 heirs of the collat-
eral branch of the family, the descend
ants of the four brothers and two SIS
ters, there is one who has the double
distinction of being a descendant of the
immortal George on both his fathers
and his mothers side. This is George
Steptoe Washington, a merchant of
Philadelphia. On his mothers side he
is descended from Colonial Samuel
Washington, the oldest of Georges
brothers, and on his fathers side, he
is a descendant of John Augustine, the

NEW YORK.

Widespread stormy weather has had the
effect of dulling distributive trade, inter
rupting railway traffic and restricting the
movement of grain to market to the small
est volume in twenty-five months. In
addition floods in the Ohio and tributary
valleys have restricted industrial opera
tions for a time.
Jobbing trade, judging from the re-
ports received, continued as recently
noted, good-sized aggregate of small Or
ders for immediate or near shipment be-
ing reported at leading markets. Mill
merry dry goods and kindred lines are in
chief demand, with staple goods preferred
to novelties, which latter are rather neg
lected.
Retail trade is at a transition point,
and is quiet as a whole, responding to
the decreased purchasing of the wage
earning classes. Talk of reduction in
wages by railroads and others is wide
spread.
Industrial affairs show little change,
with shutdowns or short time about coun-
terbalancing assumptions. There is, for
instance, more doing in finishing lines of
iron and steel, but in crude forms rather
less is doing, and the leading producing
interest in wooden goods reports GJ per
cent of its looms idle. Shoe shipments
are little larger at the East, and full
