rode out his relay without further ac-
cident.

praises of w. J. Elder of the State
! House Hotel. He literally gave the
| house" to the boys, and spent the en-
/ tire day ministering to their wants. He
gave them the use Of his long distance
! telephones and office. and had large
/ bulletin board in front OF the hotel on
which news Of the race was posted as
