They held among them 20 tickets on the three horses which finished the race “in the money,” distributed as| follows: H Nine on Mahmoud, the winner ($150,000 each) ; Five on Taj Akbar, second ($75,000 each) ; Six on Thankerton, third, ($50,000 each). This winning sum shows the United States to have won more than 50 per cent of the total prize money, an-' nounced by the sweepstakes commit- tee as approximately $6,266,875. The money won by holding tickets on the “in the money” horses is in addition to the $2,215 which goes to| every person who drew any other horses entered for the race, whether they ran or were scratched. It also is in addition to the residual and consolation prizes distributed inj the big drawing. Although the sweepstakes authori- ties never announce how much they have collected, the size of the prize .|money indicates they may have taken in in the neighborhood of $10,318,000. | The three “in the money” pay horses | approximately $2,025,000 to Americans. | Most of the Americans who won the} larger prizes were from New York and! the east.

It is Cocos Island, named so because of the great number of coconuts that grow wild there. Here Spanish and Portuguese Pirates, who looted the rich towns along the South American coast are believed to have landed and left their riches before being c: tured. Here in recent years have come scores of expeditions. They have dug up the shore and inland even more completely than have the wild pigs that inhabit it. All however, have returned empty- handed, and the secret of Cocos remains with it. Early in 1936, Costa Rica issued @ set of stamps, each showing 3 map of this island. (Copyright, 1936.
