The presentation of cups and medals
to the winners in the Haleiwa Mara
thon and bicycle race at Aala Park
yesterday afternoon was a very i'm
pressive affair. Immediately after the
victory of the ]. A. Cs., while the all
was still filed with the Banzais of the
joyful japanese fans, the crowd surged
across the field and filled the space in
front of the bandstand
Mayor Fern, who had come back
from Waialua especially to be present
took his place behind the table on
which were displayed the three cups
and the medals. Acting as master of
ceremonies, A. K. Vierra called for
Nigel Jackson, and the appearance of
the latter from the back of the band
stand was the signal for tumult of
cheering.
The Mayor then presented him with
the Haleiwa cup. the Dimond challenge
cup, and the Art Theater medal, and
spoke a few words of congratulation on
behalf of the committee in charge of
the race
Jackson was then called on for a
speech and stated briefly that he was
proud to have won the first Hawaiian
Marathon and that he would defend
his title against all corners and was
keeping himself in condition for hard
race, with that object in view. This
seemed to please the crowd, and the
piucky runner received a genuine ova-
ton after his speech.
Padeken was next called forward to
receive the Wiehman bicycle cup. and
the 'Tiser kid was shown how much
of favorite he is by the royal ap-
pause that greeted him. Padeken de-
elined to make a speech, as he stated
that he was not long on that kind of
work. but he thanked the Mayor audi
bly, and pleasantly, and this pleased
everybody Just as much
Achieu was TO have received medal
for winning second place in the bicv-
Gle race. but he was not present. so
the medal will be delivered to him pri
vately. After the ceremony. Vierra
called for three cheers for the Mayor.
and the call was nobly responded to.
Then the crowd melted away from the
field AID rush was made to get the
same o. better seats for the second
game.

Railroads Suffer from High Water.


Trains on the Central Vermont railway
were considerably delayed last week
Wednesday.
The strong south wind, coupled with
the high water, had washed out two
miles OF the long fill between South Hero
and Colchester and the water was report
ed as washing completely over the track.
Instructions had been given the trainmen
TO be especially careful in approaching
the Ill and to this is no doubt due the
avoiding OF a terrible accident. The
train made the trip by way Of Rouses
Point to Whitehall and Rutland.
On the arrival of the trains at the
Rouses Point bridge over the Richelieu
river, 1t was found that the bridge west
of the draw was damaged by ice and the
high winds. The portion but just passed
over by the train was also damaged and
the train could not go back or continue.
Passengers were safely transferred to
Rouses Point and sent west over the
Grand Trunk railway to Montreal. The
Joint forces OF the Central Vermont and
the Rutland roads rushed work ON the
bridge and completed repairs so that
trains ran on schedule time the next day.
The ice has gone out and no further dam
age is anticipated.
It is understood that the Rutland rail-
road has experienced considerable incon-
venience by washouts on its island line.
This road has been detouring trains via
the Central Vermont between Alburg and
Burlington through st. Adams.

HAD QUIT WORK
READY TO GIVE UP IN DESPAIR
Restored to Health By Vtnol


Il was sick, rundown and finally
had to give up work. After trying
q number of remedies and several ply
sicians, was just about ready to give
up in despair. saw Vinol ad-
vertised and decided to try II,
and it has done more good for
me than all other means combined. 1t
has built me up and restored my
strength until / now feel twenty years
younger, and am able to attend to my
work again as usual" Job Jeavons,
1896 Lind street, Wheeling, w. Va.
The reason Vinol is so successful in
such cases is because it contains tonic
iron and all of the Strengthening
blood-mahng and bodybuilding ele-
ments of cod liver oil, but no oil.
Vinol is unexcelled as a strength
creator for old people, delicate children,
weak, rundown persons, and after
sickness-and is the best known rem
edy for coughs, colds and bronchitis.
We return your money If Vinol fails
10 give satisfaction.

Crowd Expected at Tereentensry

The state tercentenary committee met
With the local executive committee in
Burlington April IL and discussed prin-
cipally the problem OF building an am
phitheatre and its probable location.

club. An escort OF the Vermont Nation
al Guard will be there to meet him and

There was an unhroken wilderness

we're right handy. Here were thirty men
working a whole week on the very

The few boards bought were probably for
flooring. 1t was undoubtedly built by
digging a deep treEch and standing logs
en- end therein for the walls. AT the four
corners would be bastions or towers to
guard against the Indians making q flank

COLD MAKES SHAD SCARCE.
Few Caught by Fishermen OF Alex
andria, However.

Return of cold weather and wintry con-
ditions have made for light catches OF
shad in the Potomac river, although a
few are still caught by the drift net fish
ermen working at various points.
Within the past day or two several
shad have been caught off Alexandria
The bugeye Dawson arrived here yes
terday with a small number of the fine
fish from OccoQuan.
Capt. Charles Mckenney, with a fishing
crew. left Alexandria yesterday to fish
herring and shad nets in the lower end
of the river He will be followed by other
fishermen in a few days.
The odd part about the fishing season
so far is the fact that herring are very
scarce In the Potomac. Ordinarily her
ring are more numerous than shad. This
season almost as many shad as herring
have been caught in the river
With return of warmer and more
springlike weather conditions the fish
ermen are anticipating a large increase in
the shad and herring catch.
