Medina COUNTY FAIR
IS Big SUCCESS
ABOUT 10000 ADMISSIONS
IN THE TWO-DAY EVENT
Thursday Races Cut Short by Rain
Heats in 2:2S TrOt Marked by
Sharp Contest for Position

Thursday-the second day of the
Medina fair-was ushered in fair with
the sun occasionally peeping through
the thin clouds. But about l o'clock
the clouds began to gather and at 2:45
it began to rain. The downpour be-
came very heavy within few minutes
and within the half hour the Fair
Board saw the impracticability of con-
tinuing the races and shortly after
gave out the information there would
be no more heats and the money paid
according to the standing when the
rain began to fall.
There were two trotting races
scheduled for the afternoon event,
one pacing and running race. Much
interest had been manifested in the
latter event, in which there had been
eight entries. Two heats were trotted
in the first race, two were trotted in
the second, and but one heat paced in
the third race. Not a single heat had
been run in the last event and after
the rain it was decided the track was
too wet to attempt even a running
race. Following are the scores for the
races.

The running race, planned for but
not possible on account of the rain of
Thursday, met with such favor that
the Fair management is considering
making it permanent feature of the
race list.
Purses paid for races call for $3.50
of the Fair expenditures; receipts
from those who came to see the races
comprise large part of the grand
total.

Father Manuel ROmaO To
Preach At Kuau Church

Great preparations are being made
for the fair and feast celebration to
be held at the Kuau Catholic church
this coming Sunday. The ladies and
gentlemen in charge are conducting a
fair for the benefit of the new church
at Wailuku, and a large number of
people from all over central Maui will
doubtless be in attendance.
Interest will no doubt be augmented
by the fact that Rev. Father Manuel
Romao, professor of the Portuguese
language, SEN to the Islands by the
government of Portugal, will be pres
ent and deliver the principal sermon.
Father Romao is a most fluent, speak
er and has a wonderful command of
the Portuguese language. The band
will lend music to the occasion and
with the church dressed in a new coat
of paint, the day promises to be long
remembered.

Dry Weather Empties
0linda Reservoir

A correspondent from Makawao
writes:
"On September 29 George Copp, SUI
perintendent of the Makawao water
works, telephoned to the different
localities to put on the brakes
that the water situation was a serious
one and that the supply in sight would
last but 5 days.
ut seems that there has been no
rain at the water-head at Waikamoi
since September l, and though the
new Olinda reservoir was full CAS-
feet deep during the latter part of
August, the supply was only sufficient
to tide over a continuous drought of
about 5 weeks. Formerly 2 weeks of
dry weather exhausted the stored-up
water. Maui, as well as Oahu should
pray for rain"

Farewell
To Joe B. MedeirOS

Joe B. Medeiros, for the past ten
years a resident of Wailuku, raj
rendered a farewell banquet at the
Grand Hotel last Friday evening by
fellow brothers of Court Valley Isle,
No. 9239, A. o. F.
Mr.. Medeiros left by the Mauna
Kea the same evening for Hilo, where
he intends to make his home. His
loss will be Hilo's gain for he is not
only an ardent baseball fan but was
manager of the Waikiki champions
as well. His interest in the national
pastime has done much to foster the
sport here on Maui.
Those present at the banquet were
John Abreu, Widdifred F. Alfonso,
Major Bal, William Buck, Jacinto r.
Correa, Joaquin Garcia, William Feur-
peil, Joe Martin, Frank Medeiros, Joe
Medeiros, John Medeiros, Manuel Ross
AL A. Refs, Manuel Comes Paschoal

Does Island
Electric Money Go?

What is the exact nature of the

800 monthly to the Island Investment
Company probably will be up to The
Island Electric Company of Waikiki,
Maui, to explain to the public utilities
commission.
These payments, as well as checks
for all the net profits of the electric
company, were made to the invest
ment company by order of r. e. Bond
of California, who is president of
both companies, according to a letter
to the commission from the manager
of the electric company. The letter
was in explanation of certain items
in the monthly balance sheet of the
investment company which did not
appear quite clear to the commissions
auditor. Upon the latter's views of
the legality of the transaction will de.
pend whether or not the commission
will probe the matter further .-Adver
