and L. myself. could not accept Pick

myth If Pickering had not stolen or
dissipated it, where was it concealed !?
Morgan was undoubtedly looking for
something of value or he would not
risk his life in the business; and it

merely waited until he should show

By my plate next morning 1 found
this note. written in clear, bold,

that the intrusion upon his grounds
by Miss Armstrong, one of their stu
dents, has caused Mr.. Glenarm no an
noyance- The Sisters beg that this
infraction of their discipline will be
overlooked, and they assure Mr. Glen

An unnecessary apology. The note

He started slightly. 1 should not
have noticed it if L had not been SO
keen for his answer.

to find them before you came, to tell
you the whole truth, sir; but they

you kindly tell me whom you suspect
of destroying them? The toast again,

His hand shook as he passed the
plate.

or finish, he knows none of the arts
by which trained runners save them
selves and gain speed Yet he chop
ped on practically five minutes from
the worlds record for 25 miles, and
finished with a broad smile and many
bows toward the crowds of fair spec
tators who applauded. That was
through sheer inability to feel fatigue.
Those who witnessed the start of
the great race on April 10 were amazed
to see how Longboat began his long
journey. He ran f1at-footed. He twist
ed his body. He carried his arms like
a sprinter going for a hundred-yard
record.
Got Down to Work.
So it went for eight miles. and the
Indian was well up in the lead. Then
those who followed him in motor cars
and on bicycles saw a change take
place The Indian appeared to be
awakening to an enjoyment of the
run He got OFF his heels and came
up on his toes, running lightly. Yet
he stayed with the rank and file for
nearly 16 miles. Then he turned to
his manager, who was beside him in
a car.
How far?" he grunted.
ADoul Ten mics more Hit er up
and shake en- said the manager.
So Tom left the crowd. Such run
ming had never been seen before. The
last mile of the 25 miles, some of it
uphill, was done in four minutes, 46
seconds, not SO far off the worlds
record for the fiat mile
You beat the record five minutes"
the Indian was told afterward in the
hotel.
He shrugged his shoulders indiffer-
emily Then he was told the time he
made.
1'Fast?" he queried in gutteral
tones.
Very fast. Were you running hard.

Then, in the great dark hall, heard
muff1ed tread as of some one follow

some new trick l ran into my room,

off for Bates room on the third floor.
1t was always easy to attribute any

light brown hair was close-cut; his

Marvel of Endurance

Marvel of Endurance.
There are not few who claim that
Longboat does not particularly realize
it is all the same to him whether he
runs ten miles or so miles. Lean, rath-
er awkward, with only average de-
velopment of leg muscles and of chest.
there is nothing about Longboat's
physique to suggest the phenomenon.
Probably his strength lies in his res
piratory organs, for he has never yet
been known to tire and always fin
ished almost as strong as when he
began the run.
Give Longboat a clear course for
25 miles, good weather conditions and
something to spur him to his utmost,
and what could he do the distance
in2" his manager was asked.
The latter shook his head. 1t would
be impossible to say But he would
make all existing records look Sick
and would probably establish figures
that would never be beaten.
In all races in which he has engag-
ed, Longboat has never been .'ex-
tended" He will insist on turning his
head from side to side and watching
things along the course with the live
lest personal interest. If a lady
waves at him, he understands, grins
and waves hand in acknowledgment.
1t is estimated that he usually loses
several minutes by taking notice of
things beside the route in his long
races.
To Be Given Education.
The Canadian people are raising a
fund to educate Longboat in acknowl-
edgment of his Marathon win. 1t may
be that in educating him, they will
spoil the running machine.
