and had his pack and body rubbed. He
then started fresh, and made his next

die of his 205th mile and ate his breakfast. He
did not have very good appetite, but appeared
to relish some boiled sago He ate very little meat
and drank half cup OF tea. He walked very
steadily for the next nve miles, making the dis

had by this time dropped in and he began to i'm.
prove his galt, making the next three miles in
14m. 27s., lam. 23s. and Ism. He then asked to
have some Of the reports in the morning papers
read to him, and gentleman took the HERALD
and read the account published therein aloud as
he walked alongside, which seemed TO relieve the
Professor very much much He Sey islt very confident
that now he had stood the strain OF the first three
days he felt sure he would last out and success
and was thoroughly rubbed down by q Turkish
bath operator, which greatly improved his con-
dtlOn. He also changed his shoes and stockings,
and mad his leet baIned. He then walked fvc
miles without resting, and at IN. l6m. he stopped
eighteen minutes on the track and ate his dinner
He was complaining good deal about the track
saying that 1t mad soddened down and tnat there
was no spring to 1t. Some shavings were sent
a boy to loosen the dirt with a rake
so as TO soften 1t Tor his ieet. He ate remarka-
that mad been plentiiuiy supplied with rare roast
beef potatoes, boiled corn, boiled sago, tea and
brown bread. He started immediately alter his
dinner and struck pretty lair gait OF about q
mile in fifteen minutes. AT two P. NJ. Gilmore's oand

over thirteen minutes Nj. STAFFORD, OF the
Athletic Club, was walking with him most
OF the morning and cheered him up with his com.
pany and conversation, as also several other mem.
bers or the same organization. He walked his
next five miles, reaching his 230th, at 3h l9m. 15s

too, put IN an appearance about this time and
starting out with some lively airs set Judd travel
ling around his course at gait OF a little over
fourteen minutes to the mile, the 245th
being recorded on the Judges book at sn.
Am. 42s. Judd appeared at this time to
be as well as ever, and looked capable OF endur-
ing forever. He SAID. when questioned on the
subject. that he was sure to make his walk ana
would be willing to stake his money and thus bacE
up his own opinion. He also said ne walking
somewhat slowly In order to rest himself. as he
felt that BY so dong he could do with q sleep
OF an hour or two at the most. and
thus save what he calls his locomotive
powers for his efforts at the la<ter
end Of the week. There appears far to be but
little doubt that Professor Judd will not only beat
West0ns time but make the 500 miles he started
for. The 246tn mile was completed at Oh. 3m l0s.,
when he rested for about 40 seconds, in order to
drink some beef tea. He then started again and
was to continue to walk until he completed MS
2o0th mile, when he intended 10 sleep tor nour

since he recommended his task yesterday morn.
