A Celebrated Running Sailor.
from Tid-Bits.l

The pedestrian feats OF the present dav
are cast into the shade by the recorded eX-
ploits Of Ernst MeDsen, Norwegian sailor
in the English navy, early in the present
century. Mensen first attracted attention
by running from London to Portsmouth in
nine hours, and soon after he ran from
London TO Liverpool in thirty-two hours.
Having distinguished himself at the battle
OF Navarino, in 1927, he left the navy
and became a professional runner. After
winning a number Of matches, he under
took the feat OF running from Paris to
Moscow.
Starting from the Place Nend0me at
O'Clock in the afternoon OF June II, 1891,
he entered the Kremlin at 10 o'clock A. NJ.
on June 2jtb. having accomplished the dis
lance Of 1,760 miles In thirteen days and
eighteen hours. The employment OF Men
sen as q courier-eXtraOrdinar became a
popular amusement in European Courts
He ran from country 10 country, hearing
messages Of congratulitiOn. coincidence, or
dispatches, and always beat mounted cou-
riers when matched against them.
He never walked, but invariably ran,
bis reireShment being biscuit and rasp-
berry syrup. He took two short rests
only in twenty-four hours. These rests he
took standing, and leaning against some
support. At such times he covered his
face with a handkerchief and slept. In
1886. while in the employ OF the East
India Company, Mensen was charged with
the conveying OF dispatches from Calcutta
to Constantinople through Central Asia.
The distance is 5,615 miles, which the
messenger accomplished in tifty-nine days,
or in one third OF the time taken by the
swiftest caravan. At last he was employed
to discover the source OF the'Nile.
Setting out from Silesia on May II, 1913,
he ran to Jerusalem, and thence to Cairo,
and up the western bank OF the river into
Upper Egypt. Here, iust outside the vii
lage OF Syang, he was seen to stop and
rest, leaning against palm-tree, his face
covered with handkerchief. He rested
so long that some persons tried to wake
him; but they tried in vain, for he was
dead. He was buried at the foot OF the
tree, and it was years before his friends IN
Europe knew what fate had befallen him.
