Wisconsin stands seventh in the list
of the states that contributed to the
relief of the earthquake sufferers Of
Sicily and Calabria according to re-
port made by Chairman George W.
Davis Of the National Red Cross of
America. New York is first with more
than 100000.

ceived yesterday by Governor Davidson

not only of the officers of the associa-
ton, but of Pope Plus K and of Count
Tavena of the Italian Red Cross.
It IS interesting to note that Cali

is of recent date, was next to the en-

CROWDS READ
MARATHON NEWS

From midday till well on in the af-
ternoon Yesterday, there was large
crowd round the Advertiser office clam
oring for news of the Marathon race.
The telephone to Haleiwa is not in the
impeccable class, and when the news
came in that Cheatham had arrived, it
was not made clear that he had ar
rived by automobile.
This caused a sensation which in
creased the crowd. Then came the news
that Nigel Jackson had won, and the
MANY marines in the crowd wanted to
know about Nelson. They felt positive
that he must have won. They knew
that he could run fifty miles without
stopping, SO he simply must have won.
But when the returns began to come in
regularly and the news came that Mel
son had shipped aboard an auto, the
marines-~slipped away and looked
solemn.
Great interest was displayed in TIE
bulletins that appeared in the Office
window, and the telephone was kept
busy all the afternoon with requests for
the name of the winner.

HALSTEAD WINS
THERMOS PRIZE

Some very good cards were turned in
at the Country Club tournament yes
terday. The best one being H. Alex.
Walkers of II net, and he was award
ed the desk clock. Frank Halstead
returned the best gross score and added
the Thermos bottle to his golfng kit.
The special prize that has been hung
up since last January for the first one
|, to make the new seventh hole (Hal-
stead green) in three was finally cap
tured by Mark Robinson. He got a
good drive and, with a eorking bras
sic, was well on the green, running
down a 12-foot putt for the necessary
8. Considering the wind this was
remarkable performance.
Many auto parties dropped in for
lunch, and the club was quite lively
during the afternoon tea hour. 1t
makes an ideal place as rendezvous
for an afternoon auto spin. The many
tourists who have visited there all
remark on the clubs beautiful location.
The official scores were:

their cameras and ran, and then Jack
son disappeared in a seething mass of
humanity, only to reappear above the
heads OF the crowd, being carried to
the dressing rooms in triumph
Cheatham had already arrived by
auto, and Walsh was brought in just
after Jackson finished. Nine minutes
after jackson s triumphant arrival,
German arrived, and fifteen minutes
later Feagler, looking tagged out, but
smiling.
Up till half-past two, runners came
struggling in, most of them on foot
and a few of them in automobiles.
Nelson and Hayes were the two first
surprises in this line, and then came
Hussey and Cordeiro.
Hotel Hospitality.
AS each contestant arrived he was
shown the way to the dressing rooms
and there was laid out on a bed and
given a rafting good rundown by a
corps of willing assistants. There was
rubbing mixture, there was whisky in
case of faintness, there was cold water
and there were towels. In fact, Mr.
Bidgood had foreseen every possible
want. After getting dressed, the boys
went over to the hotel lanai and were
guests of the hotel to jolly good feed
and everyone of them expressed them.
selves as pleased with the hospitality
of the hotel.
Tickets were given out to all the
contestants for the special train to
come back by, and everybody got back
to town early in the evening. They
all had something to be happy about
They had done better than they ex-
pected, they had won prize or they
had had good time, and in this lay
the essence of the great success of the
event.
There were two men at Waialua who
did great deal to help out. DIR.
Wood was there all the time to help
in case of need of medical assistance,
and Mr.. Scovell, chief engineer of the
mill, went out with his car kokua and
brought in no less than six waysiders.
The official list of starters and the
order in which they finished is as fol
