Give Have Been Lavished on the
 Young Son of George Gould, While
 the Marvellous Indian Runner Is IT,
 Iiterate and Mentally of Weak Char
 acter-Two Most Extreme Types
 Ever Perfected at Same Time.
 Boston.-Jay Gould and Tom Long boat the athlete of education, the ath lete of nature.
 The one is product of wealth, oi l brainy endeavor and of careful train ing. The other is the running-ma chine of the Onondagas, the slim | legged Indian who carried off the Mar athon race in Boston in April and smashed all world records for 25 miles, in spite of sleet and cold and | crowded course, without visible strain
 The one is heir to millions, man of culture, of education. of high in | telligence. The other is an Indian from toe-nail to top-knot, poor, Hitter ate, of an intelligence so low that he | is treated by his trainers as nothing !: more than running machine. Yet | these two opposite types have some thing in common-they are each at the top of their class in the world of sport, they each have grit and staying power and fight instinct.
 When Gould battled for the anna. teur court tennis championship of the world in England last month, he put into practice the lessons of years oi careful training at the hands of ex- perts. He employed all the general ! ship that naturally bright mind, aid ed by skillful teaching in the game could summon up. Little more than a boy, for Jay Gould is only 18 years old, he shows in his game the restless energy that his grandfather showed in another field of endeavor. He shows the same generalship, albeit a more courteous and sportsman-like general. ship, and the same tenacity and un- swerving purpose.
 Tribute From Opponent.
 Gould is bit of sheer whalebone,' '' said Eustace Miles, the great English amateur. T can testify that it is sim ply awful to play against him, he is so restless.
 Yet nobody could wish a more courteous opponent. His chief strength lies in his service and also in his skill in hitting the ball into the winning gallery. His other strokes are very sure. Playing against him is like playing against a relentless ma chine"
 This bit of sheer whalebone is the son of George Gould, financier and railway magnate, who inherited the greater part of the famous Jay Gould s hoard. He is about five feet ten inches in height, clean cut, manly chap, of 1.-the and active figure, and polo and many other sports have contribut- ed to make him the athlete he is. It goes without saying that his multi millionaire father is an ardent packer of all his athletic activities.
 Money Not Considered.
 Instructors were engaged for the boy, some of the best in the world and large sums were spent in young Jays tennis education. One of the in structors who had a hand in mould ing Jay Gould's tennis form received $10,000 a year. When he goes abroad to play, Gould engages a gymnasium in France for his training-expense no obstacle.
 One of the best known of English critics says of Jay Gould:
 q believe MT. Gould to be the most remarkable amateur tennis player since Alfred Lyttleton came to Lords few years after leaving Cambridge and beat J. H. Heathcote. For SC young a player, MT. Gould is almost unique. His great reach, his quick eye, and his keen realization of the value of playing for winning opening make a profound impression"
 Indian Is a Wonder.
 And what about the Indian, him they call running-machine? That's what he is, nothing more. Tom Long boat can run 25 miles faster than any man living, but he cannot converse intelligently in English, he could not write 8 letter, he is man of as primi tive ideas as any of the red-sllinned braves whose blood courses through his veins.
 He is physical phenomenon, this Indian. He does not know how to run-that is to say, he has no form or finish, he knows none of the arts by which trained runners save them selves and gain speed. Yet he chop ped off practically five minutes from the worlds record for 25 miles, and finished with broad smile and many
