man appeared at the Episcopal Church In Il pair OF

that the acute sensibes Of the congregation might
not be shocked. At least so says Baptist minister
OF Midtown, whose authority Is q witness of the
incident. This hitter individual sat not six feet
away from the In the overalls and observed that
the usher who approached him acted upon the suggestion
OF three women who sat nearby. HIS testimony fixes

The Amateur just Behind Stevens
in the Walking Match.


Tobias was unable to gain on little
Lizzie SchultZe yesterday in the race at
the jackson street rink, and the forty
eighth hour closed with Minneapolis
mateur in the lead of a worlds cham
pion for second place in the great inter-
national race. SchultZe has surprised
every one, as this is the first race in
which she ever participated, and yet
she has not only outwalkcd the great
To bias. but has eXcelled the record
made for a corresponding number of
hours in the Minneapolis walk. She is
in such position that, should Stevens
fail, she will WIN the race. Such work
on the part of all amateur was never be-
fore heard of. and she has many adj
mirers who, without wishing the plucky
Stevens any bad luck, hope she will win
the race. Stevens, however, is as fresh
as she was on the first day of the race,
and barring accidents. is sure Will
ner. The only changes in the
relative positions of the walkers
weight, Bessie Macbeth. dropped from
fifth to last place, and MOllie Harvey
erept up from last TO fifth. Ruston is
the only walker on the track who is not
in good condition. and she is more than
likely to finish the race. Such percent
age of fnishers is remarkable. Where
nine start, usually only four or five fin
ish, but only two have thus far dropped
out, and there will certainly be six in at
the finish III this race, and probably
seven.
The score at the end of forty-eight
hours was over seven miles better than
that made by Aggie Harvey at Mime
apoIis, and was eXcelled by both Stevens
and SchultZe. 1t follows:
