THE MARATHON CRAZE
Several Challenges For Long
boat, Dorando's Conqueror.
SPORTING MEN EXPECT MORE.
Con Connolly, Albert Corey, Jim Crow
ley and Alfred shrubb In Line
For Honors-How Longboat Entered
Sport Which Languished For Years.

Sport Which Languished For Years.
New York and, in fact, the entire
United States have gone Marathon
mad
Never in the history of American
athletics has sport which languished
for years because of lack of patronage
sprung SO quickly into life again.
Hardly had the lanky Tom Longboat,
who until four years ago was a hum
BILE resident on Canadian Indian res
ervation, defeated the game little
champion, Dorando Pietri, the other
night at Madison Square Garden, New
York, than challenges from points even
as distant as Los Angeles came in,
says the New York American. The
first offer was from managers in the
California city, who state they are
willing to pay $1,000 each to Dorando
and Johnny Hayes If they will run a
Marathon on the coast
Con Connolly, the San Francisco
amateur who recently won the Mara
thon in that city, has wired challenge
American and is willing to desert the
amateur ranks and turn professional,
as about $4,000, under present condi-
tons, can be made in night by run
ner Of his ability
Albert Corey, well known long dis
lance amateur runner Of Chicago, fol-
lowed quickly with a challenge to any
one willing to run the Marathon dis
lance against him.
Jim Crowley. the hodcarrier who
recently captured first place in the
YOnkers Marathon, is said to be willing
to desert amateur ranks and become
professional divining that the long
distance running game has come into
it's own and is lucrative one
Alfred Shrubb, who holds every
worlds record from five to fifteen
miles and is regarded as the greatest
long distance runner in the worlds
history, has been asked to engage in
Marathon and it is intimated that he
will do SO. Sporting men expect that
many more challenges will be received.
Interest in Tom Longboat naturally
was stimulated by his victory over
Dorando. Many had known that the
Indian for four years was regarded as
the greatest long distance runner on
the continent, but few knew just how
he began his running career
It was about five years ago that
Longboat, who was poorer than Do
rand0 when the latter was humble
baker in Italy, went to Hamilton, Ont,
where a Marathon was to be run The
| long legged descendant of the sons of
the forest opined that he might just as
we'll enter, even If only for fun. He
did so, and he sped over twenty five
mile course in the remarkable time of
2 hours "a minutes.
From that moment the young In
dian, who had been ward Of the Ca
madam government, became an object
Of interest to all interested III sports.
He had "found HIMSELF and kept in
the running game, Gaping his bril-
liant career with the vanquishing Of
Dorando Pietri who he regards as
great runner and a game one.

They backed two-horse wagon to

loaded it with practically the entire
stock of suitings and notions in the
store, leaving the counters and shelves
bare. The value of the goods taken
