tween Banonica and Weber A quiet
tip had been passed around to those
on the inside" to bet on Weber, al
though Banonica had been figured as
an easy winner. Hundrews upon hun
dreds Of dollars were thrown into
the mill.
From the first half the Banonica
Jockey began to pull his horse. IL
was at first done on the off side, but
could be seen, and a great howl arose
from the grandstand. This did not
stop the cheat, however, for in the
stretch it was clear to everyone that
the jockey was throwing his own horse
the animal, however, being willing
enough to win. The judges saw the
swindle, announced no race and ruled
the Jockey off the track
There were four entries for the hair

.HILO'S WALLOP
THE HONOLULUS

The grandstand at Hooulu park was
well filled for the great football game
between the Honolulus and Hilos. By
all the game was closely watched.
Both sides had their friends, and the
roofing was about evenly divided.
When the struggle closed, however,
with the score 2 to in favor of the
home team, the Hiloites broke loose
in a mighty cheer
The respective teams were as fol-
lows:
Honolulu-Rice, goal; H. Chilling
worth and Greig. full backs; Walker,
Zeigler and Fernandez, full backs;
Dwight, Desha, Norton, Bailey and
Friendo, forwards Hilo-Desha, goal;
Irwin and Kellener. full backs; Lind
say, Rattery and Craik, half backs;

umpire. Hampton and Williams
linesmen.
Fernandez kicked off for the Homo
lulus in the first half. Dwight follow
ed up and passed to ChilIlngWorth
the latter sending it to Desha, who
had a shot for goal but missed. A
striking feature at this stage was the
quick work of Greig. Shortly after
this Honolulu a free kick, which was
taken by Chillingworth who followed
up his own kick then passed to Fer
nandez, who kicked out of bounds.
Lindsay, from throw in, centered
the ball, and Mckenzie, with an ex-

goal and scored Score, to 0.
Bailey kicked off; Mckenzie again
centered. Dwight secured the ball

the field. Lindsay blocked and kicked
toward Honolulu end and Chilling

after Walker made a good attempt TO
KICK goal but the wind carried the
pail outside the post. Chillingworth
kicked off, followed up the ball but
was blocked by Mckenzie. In the
5culfle which ensued, Mckenzie iniur-
"a his knee and was put out of com

JACKSON DONE UP
BY A LITTLE JAP

The defeat of Nigel Jackson, cham
pion Marathon runner of the Hawaiian
Islands, in the eleven mile race at
Hilo on Saturday, was as great sur
prise to many of the good people OF
the Rainy City as it was to Jackson S
friends here. Sir Nigel struck Hilo as
other heroes have struck other towns
His head was high and his self con-
fidence supreme. BY his swagger, his
record and his talk it was made plain
to the Hilo folk that nothing in the
running line could defeat the terrible
Mr. Jackson. Nearly everybody had
this opinion. After the race was over
there were those who declared Il told
you So but in fhls they had merely
forgotten a little
Jackson was beaten fair and square
at his own game, and by little Japa-
nese at that He protested on the
ground that the Jap had been assisted
i'm the run, contrary to the rules; but
this claim was found to be unworthy
OF particular notice. He claimed, at
the finish of the race, that his ankle
had gone to the bad; but the fact that
he was around the streets of Hilo Sat
urday night Sunday and Monday,
knocked this excuse in the head.
But to the race
Six men lined up at the Nine Mile
post near Olaa for the run. These
were: Nigel Jackson, Tsukamoto (the
winner, All Fook, Joe Canario, Da
Fahey and Hasegawa. e. E. C"Dick'D
Richards was the starter, The gun
was fired at a. N, The run was
down the government road to Hilo and
thence three times around the race
track.
The Japanese, TsukamotO took the
lead at the start ard never lost it but
once during the entire run. All Fook
the Chnaman, pulled up second and
once actually forged ahead of the new
champion, but the Jap, after repeated
long spurts, drew ahead again and left
Jackson far behind. The Jap finished
without any show Of distress All Fook
arrived upon the racetrack ahead of
Jackson, but in making the final laps
he quickly wilted, and was passed by
Jackson.
Canario and Fahey reached the race
track together and continued to run
together until near the finish when
Canario seemed to take wings and flew
over the line ahead of his opponent
Fahey cave as an excuse for his failure
the statement that he had not trained
for the event and was not in condi-
ton.
Saturday might Jackson was around
Hilo tsreets offering to bet $3.50 against
a like amount that he could defeat the
little Jap in a fun Marathon run around
the horse track. This wager was
taken up by John O'Rourke, |
the horsemau. Jackson asked to be
allowed time, and in less than ten |

ball down the field, and Chiilingworth

MOOHEAUS DOWNED
BY HILO GIANTS

Three fine games of baseball were
played at Hooulu park in Hilo on the
afternoon of July Fourth The first
was between two junior teams known
as the Young Hilos and Punas. The
last also a junior game. Interest cen
tered in the second game-Hilo VS..
Mooheau-for the season that Eddie
Fernandez bunch of twirlers appear
ed in ii. In place of the Honolulus
playing the Hilos or Mooheaus
straight, the visitors were divided up
between the two teams This created
considerable dissatisfaction at first,
but when it became clear, that the ar
rangement was thus made IN order to
obtain a better quality of baseball,
the kickers subsidized.
The big grandstand at the race
track was well filled during the games.
About $3.50 were taken in at the gate.
Ragsdale was the umpire.
In the first and second innings no
runs were made. In the third the Moo
heaus failed, but the Hilos made two
runs. In the fourth there were
no runs for either SIDE, but in
the fifth the Hilos added another fig
ure to their score In the sixth no
runs were made, but in the seventh
the Hilos again managed to get in
run The eighth and half of the ninth
resulted in goose eggs.
The Hawaii baseballers are TO he
congratulated upon the quality of tbe
baseball put up. Both of the teams
played nearly as well as some of the
Iioholulu teams. Batting was rather
weak on both sides. but the field worI,
was simply splendid.

Another Step in the Fight For Pure
Water at st. Johnsbury.

St. Johnsbury. Oct. Estates At
torney Robert ", Simonds has taken
another step in the water war which
has been going on in st. Johnsbury
since the State Board of Health con-
demned the water furnished by the
village for domestic purposes and or
dered the village trustees to stop fur
nishing it and pat-ons to stop using
1t. Since that time, over year ago,
the case has been taken through the
various courts and the action of the
state board was finally upheld in an
opinion from the supreme court of
chauncery to enjoin all patrons of the
system from using the water and
trustees of the village from furnish
ing it for use The case will be
heard before Judge w. w. Miles in
Burlington Friday, and if the injunc-
tion is issued it will effect from 100 to
! 20 patrons.

the earlier days, when there was no

years one could sell the surplus for
electric lighting and for other pur-
poses. For that reason there has been

For while electric heating is now

cars in many cities are heated by the

this proves such a tax upon the cen

problem
The industrial opportunities for

note that Maine stands third among

In the discussion of the courthouse
referendum to be voted on the first
Tuesday in March nobody whose
opinion is taken seriosuly has said that
the need of new county buildings
here is not very real or pressing. The
only objection is the tax to pay the
bills. Now the extent of the tax
levied in any one year is five cents on
a dollar. This will make the burden
on a poll tax payer just ten cents a
year. Not very severe burden is
it? A man with two thousand dollars
worth of taxable property will have
to pay just one dollar. Is that tax
enough to scare anybody from being
public spirited citizen? Benning
ton county now has the poorest and
most disgraceful county buildings in
the state. Are not the taxpayers viii
ing to order the erection of new ones
when the tax is so arranged as to bur
den nobody?
