Hundreds of Newarkers who failed to
see Shrubb when he was in this city will
no doubt gladly accept the offer that Is
extended by Messrs. Powers and Pollok,
the Marathon runners of New York.
Shrubb is Il modest fellow and really does
not look the part of the athlete that he Is.
He Is slightly built and narrow-chested.
To see him walk one would not think
that he could run a mile. He is not
strongly museled and stands only Ave feet
seven inches. Hell ever lighter than Do
rando, Weighing less than 1876 pounds in
his running toys. But he is a wonderful
plugger and has a lot of speed.
The claim has been made, and not by
his friends either, that he has long-dis-
lance running down to a science. The
present methods of training long distance
runners follow are rules laid down by
Shrubb. Ernie Hjertzberg, the veteran
runner and trainer OF the Irish-American
Athletic Club, which has a corner on the
Marathon athletes, was the first man to
see that the galloping stride OF the Yankee
athletes would not do In long distance
running. 1t was pretty and nice to look
upon, but did not class with the low short
stride of Shrubb.
Shrubb's greatest performance is. the
negotiating Of Il miles and 1,1S7 yards in
an hour.
For ten years Shrubb has been running.
He is well over 30 years of age and never
trains unless he feels like 1t. He figures
that an athlete can do more injury to him
self when he tries to train and does not
I feel like it than not training at all.

The Mercantile League will start a

The Republican Indian League team,
which was expected to make a good Show
ing In the Newark League his year, and
has shown so little form, is in for a big
shakeup after New Years. That's the

The Caldwell Bowling Club is cutting n
big figure in bowling circles this season.
The team has bowled four matches away
from home and won all of them. Max
Rummell is the captain of the quintet.
Speaks pretty we'll for Max.

La BLANCHE SENT TO
FITCHBURG HOSPITAL.

Blanche. better known as 1.-THE Marine,s
one Of few men who defeated Jack Demp-
sey IN the prize ring, occupied a seat In
charged with being a vagrant. He pleaded
guilty and upon recommendation Of the
police, his case was continued ten days for
investigation.
The once famous fighter presented a pitt
full spectacle. He appeared nervous and
did not seem to realize where he was. He
was ordered to furnish sureties in 500 for
his appearance December 20, but he said
that he could not raise the money.
LaBlanche was found wandering about
the streets. He did not appear to know
where he was. He told the officer that he
came into the city on the theatre train
with a friend, who had deserted him. After
the hearing LaBlanche was sent to q hos
pital.

Every record from one to eleven miles
is held by this dapper little Englishman.
He has the running game down to a
science. and It is due to him that much
of the present high class of running is
being carried or in this country.
A year ago Shfubb's name was merely
known in sporting circles in Newark. Last
August this slightly-built athlete, who Is
supposed to possess more speed In a long
race than a horse, came to Newark and
agreed to race any four men. in the state
a relay of ten miles, Offering 500, which
he deposited at THE STAR office to show
good faith that he would defeat the relay.
No one responded to his call, so he went
ahead and started n meet at Wieden-
of 1t. simply because he was a profess
sional runner and there wasn't a man IN
the professional ranks In the country who
could make even a showing against him.
Today, were this little athletic marvel to
come to Newark. 1t is a certainty that
thousands would turn out to see him,
simply because the country is wild over
Marathon racing.
What Shrubb can do IN a Marathon race
Is predetermined. Shrubb himself says that
ii will be an experiment with him, though
If he were to go In a race from one to
fifteen miles he would be a heavy IA
VOrite.
When Shrubb was In this city he openly
declared that he was only too anxious to
meet Longboat In a series of races. He
could get backing for thousands Of dollars
that he could take the redskins measure.
Longboat was then an amateur.
