enabled Nigel Jackson yesterday to
place the second Marathon run on Ha.
waiian soil to his credit. Jackson, be-
fore the start Of the long distance run,
had but one reply to all questions az
to his chances In the race "I'll win
sure; am in the best Of condition, and
feel certain that I can cut out the dis.
lance in three and one.half hours"
Well, he did not do quite as fast time
as he mentioned, but as he really was
not pushed In the latter stages of the
race, there is no saying what time he
could have made. Having gained two
laps on Fahey, Nigel simply contented
himself with jogging along side by
side with his only dangerous opponent.
Jackson, who simply romped along
over the ground, occasionally put In a
fast lap or two, and In some rounds
ould sprint one hundred yards or SO
at an even time gait. The man seemed
to be absolutely able at any stage to
quicken his pace. and beyond one OF
two short stops for a rub down, ran
the whole distance without any pilikia
whatsoever. He cut out the Ave miles

kaoo's Great Run.
Fahey, who finished second, was four
and one.half minutes behind the win
ner, running the distance In hrs. SO
min. 30 secs, while Hayes, who filed
third place, was six minutes behind
Fahey. The next two to finish were
Antoine Kaoo and G. X. Charlie, and II
ever two athletes deserved the glad
hand these men should rank frst.
Kaoo. who is man OF over forty.five
years of age, certainly ran the best
race OF the day, that is to say that ne
kept up the same pace right through
the whole distance, and never stepped
on the track for a rundown or any
thing else. He only slowed down to a
walk twice, and then only for few
hundred yards; his was stirling run
and he deserved the great applause
that greeted him when he sprinted
over the line at the finish. Kaoo would
have run even better in the race had
he not been Interrupted In his training
by the strict observance OF the fasts
enjoined by his Church. He, being a
devout Roman Catholic, had strictly
tasted during Lent and had weakened
himself thereby. His was wonderful
performance for a man OF his age
under the circumstances, and although
Jackson held everyone safe right
through the race, the veteran would
have surely have been second had all
gone well with him In his training.
charlie certainly ran n great race
ana hrmiy established himself In the
good graces OF all the spectators by
the game showing he made. He Is
only short little fellow and many, for.
getting that st. yves, the latest winner
OF states Marathon, Is also a stumpy
Individual, laughed as Charley started
In the race But soon their laughter
was changed 10 wonder when they saw
the Chinese lad overhaul man after
man, and forge his way up amongst
the leaders The little fellow trotted
along with smile on his face, and
looked dengnted when the crowd got
wise 10 the great exhibition he was
putting up.
