The admission from the Philippines,
free of duty, of 100000 tons of sugar
was the first proposition on which the
Ways and Means Committee agreed.
This action was taken by the commit
tee following a conference with Mr..
Taft. The statement by Edwin T. At
kins of Boston, that there was great
danger of an insurrection in Cuba if
the tariff on sugar is not reduced, and
the arguments made by Claus Il.
Spreckels of New York, in favor of
reduction in the duty, were the strik-
ing features of the hearings on the
sugar schedule. Secretary of War
Wright appeared before the committee
in favor of free sugar from the Phil
ippines. He declared that the so-called
sugar trust was understood to own 81
per eentssaf the stock of the beet sug-
ar refneries and that that is possibly
the reason why the beet sugar indus
try has not grown in this country. The
Louisiana cane sugar growers claimed
that the price to the consumer of sugar
and the price paid to the farmer for
his product is fixed by the Sugar
trust.

MARATHON RACE.

With squad of prancing cavalry
cseorting him as though he were roy
atty and forcing back the surging
crowd that struggled to get sight of
the victor, Nigel Jackson, winner of
the first Hawaiian Marathon race,
crossed the finishing line at Haleiwa,
on wave of glory, at twenty five min
utes past the noon hour yesterday and
was borne off to the dressing rooms on
the shoulders of screaming enthusi-
asm-crazed crowd of spectators. He
had covered the twenty nine mile
course in four hours, fifty and oneh half
minutes.
It was a magnificent exhibition of
pluck and nerve that the winner show
ed. Thirty-six years old, without any
chance to take a regular course of
training, necessarily irregular in his
hours of sleep, he yet showed the
younger contestants that nerve and de-
termination will win QUIZ E4eoyering
the hard, rough course of twenty-nine
full miles in less than five hours, Nigel
Jackson has set mark on the cal
endar of Hawaiian athletics and it will
be many long day before the grand
ample to be held up to aspiring long
distance runners.
Two miles from the finish an auto
mobile scared the horses of the cavalry
riders, who were escorting and encour-
aging him, and he was kicked on the
leg by one of the animals. Jackson
rolled over and actually cried with
pain and vexation to think that he
was out of the race. But he was not
out of the race. The mounted friends
who had escorted him from LeiIehua
refused to admit that he was out Of
it, and with grand effort of the will
he rose to their encouragement and
1imped over the last two miles of the
course, the pain on his face masked
by determination.
But Jackson was not the only man
to exhibit magnificent pluck and the
ability to stay with it that is the fea-
ture for recognition of Anglo-Saxons
all over the world. Every single one
of the thirty-ones men who covered the
course without assistance performed a
remarkable athletic feat. 1t must be
remembered that the roads were rutted
and hard. Although there was a cool
breeze, which aided the runners, there
were places where it was Internally hot
and, especially on the old road across
the gulch, the heat was awful.
In spite of the heat, the roughness
of the road, the height to which the
runners had to climb-some 900 feet
the dread WEAKNESS of the long range
of road on the plateau of Leilehua, and
the killing strain of the race, they all
finished within the time limit of seven
hours, and not one of them was all IN.
German Finishes Well
Next to Jackson, though perhaps in
vidious to pick out any from such a
bunch of good ones, it must be said
that German, the st. Louis alumni rep
resentative, made every minute of the
nine, that he was behind the winner,
a second, and finished in magnificent
shape, apparently ready for another
twenty miles
Had German only known how to go
down hill he might have won. From
beyond Leilehua, where the road be-
gins to descend, the decline is very

Unfortunately dental enamel NAV be-

the tooth itself may be hurt before it's
condition is known, for saliva, with
its acids, gets through the tiny assure

eat ice cream or a dish that is excess

not uncommon. and the danger of in

change from one temperature to an

To put small piece of ice into the
mouth, allowing it to melt, can not,

Hard crackers. crisp candies and the
