SPORTS
Ha1eiWa Race
Distance
p Less

Things are looking well for the
Haleiwa Marathon. The course has
been gone over and guiding posts
erected SO that there will be no
chance of contestants going astray.
The cavalry at Leilehua have volun-
teered to act as road judges, and this
will be great assistance. Various
people along the road have promised
to have tubs of water waiting for the
runners to take a hasty dip from IL
thirsty.
The length of the course has been
reduced two and one-half miles by
taking advantage Of two short cuts.
This makes the distance to be run
Just about the same as the Mara
thon runs on the mainland.
Quite a number OF men have had
a trial go over the full course, but
they are keeping the results very
closely to themselves. The chances
are that the winner will cut out the
distance in less than four hours.
A canvass for prizes will be made
this week, and the success Of that
undertaking should be great; Homo
lulu has never been backward in that
respect and fine array OF prizes
should soon be on view. Anyone who
feels inclined to help out on the prize
proposition might call at, or ring up,
this ONCE, or any Of the daily papers.
The special train Is all arranged
for and tickets are now for sale at
Wall. Nichols Co., where A. X. Vierra
is handling them. The expense CT the
special has been guaranteed by To-
cal sportsman and II the car does not
all he will be responsible for the
amount. The tickets are only s1.5O
and should be all sold out this week.
A trip to Haleiwa and back for that
amount is very cheap under any con-
ditions, but with the added attrac-
ton OF the race and the company OF
lot OF good fellows is we'll worth
twice the money. Make up your mind
at once and buy ticket-buy u now,
to quote a well-known advertisement.

logical Inspection: object, Methods
and results His first remarks told
Of the ravages Of insect life in the
United States and of the probable loss
10 the people OF Hawaii This loss
was estimated ut onc.half million dol
lars. As for the reason why insect
injury Is greater now In and about the
Islands, than formerly, he made very
plain by calling attention to the intro

Most Of the present dag pest were OF

which we have to contend with are

bugs.
1t was stated that the work appears
somewhat negative In its character
but the object of inspection is. as was
briefly stated to prevent the intrOduc.
ton Of harmful insect life. No one
wants TO spend time killing insect

When goods are found to be infect

known to destroy all forms Of animal

To produce the gas potassium
cyanide Is dropped into a vessel con.

The work of the inspector after four

also educative TO outside people who

will increase the probable area for

The market for Hawaiian grown cot.
ton Is good because Of the superior
quality Of the stock. Aside from the
market for the fiber, a number of men

 Following this was the amusing feature of the afternoon, when the graduating class cremated their troubles" - French grammars, chemistry, Tacitus, ponies, sy- rup pitchers, practice scales, old love letters, etc, went into the flames. At the close the class of 1909, alumnae and faculty gather ed around the fountain and with hands clasped drank together of the loving cup, and, while the rays of the setting sun seemed to crown their heads with the halo of blessing, once more they pledged themselves to love and loyalty to their alma mater.

LOBE DISCOVERS
 PENSION LEAK

Little Rock, Ark, May I7.- State Auditor lobe has discover ed a place where he thinks there IS . material leak in the state treasul y and has started a movement to prevent it. Closely studying the pension records, Auditor lobe has discovered that many of the checks for Confederate pensions are seat out of the state, and where clerks of some counties have certified the same lists for more than one year and checks have been issued upon them. Auditor lobe states the law will not allow pensions to per sons living out of the state, and that each year the county clerk before sending in his certified pen sion list, must require affidavits showing the applicants to be en- titled to the pension. Auditor lobe thinks many of the collectors, from the looks of their lists, have failed to do this, and on the lists are many dead persons, or per sons who gre not entitled to pension, which robs the state out of many thousands of dollars. He thinks the clerks will all pay closer attention to the pension lists when they receive his letter on the subject.

Why Don't We Have Another Bookstore?

Since our school interest both n town and country is increasing it seems to majority of the people that we ought to have another bookstore. Let us tell you the facts about the book proposition.
 What we are going to say we are ready to prove to any Doubt ing Thomas" who will be shown.
 To begin with, dealers are given a 20 per cent discount from list price, and because of having to buy from so many publishers it costs from to 10 per cent to put books i'll the house, the money in vested is worth at least calculation per cent and our ledger shows that for the last few years our ex. penSe account is 10 per cent of gross sales, in other words after our goods, including books, are in the house 1t cost us Ioc for each dol lars worth sold to make sale This will show you that there is absolutely not cent in the books bought from publishers.
 Now if you doubt anything we have said we will be only too glad to have you come and see for your self that every word of this state ment is true.
 We make the above statement because of the fact that some peo- pie over the county have an idea that we have control of the book business in this county and that we are making enormous profits on books. When we began to sell books at list price there were about three other places in town selling books and getting from $ to SC per cent over list price and when we put them at list price these other dealers all got out of the business just as quickly as possi- ble. This proves that while we have been censured and misrepre- sented, we should really have the thanks of the entire county for do- ing for you just what others were not willing to do.
 This will also explain why school books cannot be charged tc any one. While the above facts prove to you that we are getting nothing out of the new school books, nevertheless since we are in the business we want and ap- preCiate your trade,
 Respectfully,
