GIVEN LIBERAL SUM.
Believed That Bathing Beach Will
Receive $4,000.

1t is said to be almost a surety that the
District bathing beach will be generously
remembered by the House committee on
appropriations at the present session. The
Commissioners have asked for an appro-
priation of $4,000 to be used i'm con-
structing concrete bottoms in the pools
at the beach, and according to the
Views of Representative Washington
Gardner of Michigan. chairman of the
subcommittee of the appropriations COM
mittee. he will do all in his power to keep
this item in the District budget when it
passes the House.
Representative Gardeners interest in the
bathing beach is due to Commissioner
West. The latter has for some time been
planning to make the beach a source of
pride and convenience. He succeeded last
year in getting an appropriation to build
new lighthouses and TO convert the old
fish ponds into swimming pools. This
morning he drove Representative Gard
ner to the beach and showed him what
had been done and what is necessary to
otherwise improve things. Mr.. West said
that Mr.. Gardner expressed himself as
being particularly pleased with the
beach" and said it promises to become
one of the finest of it's kind in this coun-
try. He said more ideal spot for a
bathing place could not be found any
where.

TOM LONGB0AT
AND DORANOO TO
MEET ON DEG. Is

The match between the little Italian
and Tom Longboat3 the famous Indian
runner, which has been hanging fire
since the night Dorando lowered
Johnny Hayes's colors, was finally
clinched yesterday to take place at the
garden on Tuesday night, December Is,
three DAYS after the finish of the six
day bicycle race. The men will run the
full Marathon distance. 20 miles 1856
yards.
Longboat has been taken In hand by Tom
Eek, the w~ell-known trainer, who will
supervise his training. Immediately upon
the settling of the date Eek took his charge
to the Clifton race track In Jersey,
where they will be quartered at the Cliff.
ton Hotel. While the Indian has been In
training for several weeks and has run q
mile events at Fall River on Thanksgiving
day, he is sure to receive a great wind-up
to his work, as Eek is undoubtedly one OF
the best handlers of athletes In the coun-
try.
>porando only broke training for one day
after detecting Hayes, and last Friday
morning found him back at the Pastime
A. G., taking a five-mile spin. Dorando is
working this week at a vaudeville house,
but that does not interfere with his morn
Ing training, and next Monday he will be-
gin devoting his entire time and attention
TO getting into perfect condition.
This match will settle once II for all
the better man. In the Olympic Marathon

iando three ines before he collapsed at
the twentieth mile.
