there is nothing about Longboat's
physique to suggest the phenomenon.
Probably HIS strength lies ia 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 clear course for
rs miles, good weather conditions and
something to spur him to his utmost,
and what could he do the distance
in?" his manager was asked.
The latter shook his head. It 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 Tex
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.
It is estimated that he usually loses
several minutes by taking notice of
things beside the route in his long
races.

Conservative, right-thinking saloon
men have long recognized the need
Of CURLING some of the men who were
in the saloon business, because their
reeklessness was bringing down upon
all the just condemnation of con-
sentative citizens. Many saloon men
in Cairo have never had any public
gambling in their places; the great
majority do not want it and only two
have in late years been recklessly de-
fiant of law and of public sentiment
even going so far as to send out run
nets or solicitors to bring in strangers
and becoming involved in various
sensational episodes. The large ma
jcrity of the saloon men have every
reason TO join with the large ma
jrrity of the people generally, in ap-
proving the mayors orders, because
these orders are reasonable and fair
and tend TO raise the standard OF
the saloon business and to check the
steadily growing public sentiment
against it.
