ONE MILE AN HOUR.
Sculley, an Aged Pedestrian, Attempts
to Walk at That Rate for 1000
hours-ne Stopped Yesterday.

Last week Monday night at 9 o'clock
there began a strange test Of endurance
on the hand-ball alley of the Exchange
hotel in Dunmore. NJ. d. Sculley. sixty
one years of age, attempted to walk one
mile every hour until he had covered Q
distance Of 1000 mics. At 5 o'clock yes
terday afternoon Sculley and his hand
Ter, Michael Holleran, had falling out
and the walking ceased. Sculley had
walked 164 miles in as many hours.
which consumed seven days, lacking
four hours.
Sculley came to Dunmore from Shen-
andoah. In the Exchange hotel he
averred that 1t would be an easy task
for him to walk mile per hour for 1000
consecutive hours. Proprietor Thomas
Logan had contrary opinion and
agreed to pay Sculley at the rate of IS
per DAY IL he accomplished the feat.
Sculley accepted the offer and began to
walk week ago yesterday.
The large hand-ball alley alongside
the hotel contained the path and Michael
Hclleran was selected as watcher and
handler. The expected thrOngs Of ex-
cited onlookers did not materialize and
Proprietor Logan did not reap many
extra nickels as a result Of the enter
prise sculley. however. pluckily kept
at the task before him and reeleJ off the
miles according to his part of the bar
gain.
Forty-one days and sixteen hours
would have been required to accomplish
the feat according to schedule. Sculley
seemed In fair way to do it until he
quarreled with his trainer yesterday
and left the borough.

New York, June 22.-The entry list
for the Suburban handicap to be run
tomorrow, was made public this after
noon. The following are the announced
starters and their Jockeys:
: Henry Of Navarro. Griffin; Nanki
Pooh, Doggett; Hornpipe, Hamilton;
Sir Walter, Ballard; Belmer, Sims; Cliff
ford, Tarall; The Commoner Clayton.
The race promises to be one Of the
best Suburbans in years. for none but
the best horses in training are left in.
The track was very heavy last night
after the rain. but 1t has been drying
out and except in some places, was in
fairly good condition this afternoon.
Superintendent Clark said then 1t would
be as fast tomorrow as at any time
since 1t was built and the trainers
agreed with him.
Clifford and Navarro each did their
last work in 2:1O, and both Rogers and
Hyland, their respective trainers, think
that the race lies between them, al
