champion. wbos.wou the preliminary
at the English trial fell out in the
twelfth mile, like several other con-
testants and was taken into a motor
car and brought to the stadium.
1t is considered generally that the
race is not only a triumph for the
United States, but in a larger sense
for America, because seven of the
leaders are from North America. Three
Canadians, Wood the Indian, and
Simpson and Lawson, finished fifth,
sixth and seventh, respectively, with
the representatives of the United
States and deprived England of a
claim to leadership in the long dis
lance running branch of athletics.
1t is not to snatch any laurels from
the brow of Hayes who won a good
race, to say that the hero of the day
was the Italian, Dorando. The admira-
ton and sympathy of every person in
the stadium went out to the gallant
Italian, who although he did not win.
deserved to win and did more within
the limit of his powers than any other
man who ran.
The crisis of the battle on which the
been more impressive than Dorando's
entrance into the stadium. Ten min
utes before the megaphone announced
the runners are in sight" the guns
proclaimed the arrival of the leaders
at the nearest station of the course.
Intense silence overhung the stadium
while thousands awaited breathlessly
the approach. of the first man.
For ten minutes all eyes were TO-
cussed on the gate, almost directly op-
pOsite the royal stand, where the con-
testants were to enter. Finally after
what seemed an intolerable suspense,
a runner staggered down the incline
leading to the track. He was clothed
in white shirt and red knee pants
He stood for a moment as if dazed
and then turned to the left, although
red cord had been drawn about the
track i'm the opposite direction for the
runners to follow. 1t was evident also
to every one that the man was prac-
tically delirious. A squad of officials
ran out and expOstulated with him but
apparently he was afraid they were
trying to deceive him and he fought to
go to the left
At length he turned back and start
ed in the right path along the track.
Then followed an exhibition never to
be forgotten by those who witnessed
1t. His colors and number told the
spectators that it was Dorando. His
name was on every lip. He staggered
along the cinder path like man in a
dream, his gait being neither a walk
nor run, but simply a founder, his
arms shaking, his legs tottering. By
devious ways he went on. People lost
all thought of his nationality; parti-
sanship was forgotten. They rose in
their seats and saw the man lettering
onward with his head so lowIy bent
forward that his chin rested on his
chest. They knew nothing about him
as he had not been mentioned among

from about six minutes to less than

opponent was completely undone.

but four seconds and a fraction be-
hind Heferon, was walking about as
fresh as ever soon after the fin

The other events in the stadium
were tame compared with the Mara
thon, although they added to the
victories of the American team. In
the pole vault, A. C. Gilbert of Yale
and f. Il. Cook of Cornell tied for
first place with II feet inches. The
gold and silver medals go to America
while c. S. Jacob of the University
of Chicago tied with Sonderstrom of
Sweden and Archibald of Canada
for the third place with a vault of
IL feet . inches.
America also captured the heats
| in the 10 meter race, insuring all
places in the final of that event
which will be run tomorrow. The
Americans also won a heat in the
1900 meter relay race, defeating the
teams of the United Kingdom and
Canada and will run in the final
against Hungary and Germany.
Sweden captured all three prizes
for high diving and the United King
dom won the 200 meters team swim

the probable winners, but they recog-
| been a terrific one to bring him thus
right to the Threshold of victory.
DOrando staggered on toward the
| turn and dropped to the ground. I'm
| mediately a crowd of track officials
and followers swarmed about him. 1t
was evident that a man of undaunted
| courage had run himself to the very
| limit of endurance. None expected to
see him rise, for haggard and drawn
1 he had fallen like a good soldier when
| the last bit of vitality is exhausted.
According to the rules of the race
/ the physicians should have taken him
but the track officials, lost in SYM
pathy for such a man and such an
effort lifted him to his feet and with
their hands at his back gave him sup
port. Four times DorandO fell in the
300 yards separating him from the fin
ish. Three times after the doctors
had poured stimulants down his throat
he was dragged to his feet and finally
pushed across the line with one man
at his back and another holding him
by the arm His part in the race, to
he entered the ring, for unless he had
received assistance he could not have
finished.
While the pathetic scene was being
enacted, the American, Hayes. entered
the stadium comparatively fresh and
trotted around. He came in less than
a minute behind Dorando, but in the
excitement of the moment he failed to
get even from his countrymen the re-
ception that he deserved.
1t is a question whether public opin-
ion will ever support another Mara
thon race here. Dorando's condition
when he finished and the condition of
many of the contestants in today's
event lead people to think it is worse
than prize fighting or bull fighting.
The American athletes are sending
to Italy congratulations on Dorando's
magnificent fight for victory Happi-
ness returned to the American camp
tonight. Officials, athletes and every
body i'm any ways connected with the
team are celebrating the great victory
Of Hayes. They have forgotten all the
troubles of the past two weeks in the
moment of triumph.
hayes ran careful race. He was
satisfied to go along slowly until he
had covered nineteen miles, and then
he pushed into third place, keeping
behind Hefferon until the opportunity
came on long level at NORWOOD
Scrubb, after a hard climb up the
hill. When Dorando, Heferon and
Hayes reached Scrubb, Dorando was
81 minutes ahead of Heferon, who
was 21A minutes ahead of Hayes
Both the Italian and the South Afri-
can were limping badly while Hayes
was comparatively fresh and strong
When the American reached the
level of the Scrubb, through which
the runners made their way along
COW paths he could see the two
leaders only a short distance ahead
of him, and felt certain from their
gait that they were about run out.
He therefore increased his speed and
before he was through the Scrubb he
had overtaken the South African and
made a considerable gain on Doran-
do. The time taken at the finish
shows how well Hayes succeeded in
making up the distance, for despite
the assistance given the Italian, the

INVESTIGATING TOUR
STARTING FROM PHOENIX
For Study of Grazing Conditions IN
The Verde National Forest

A. +. Peters, chief of the branch of
grazing. United States Forest Service.
| will leave Washington Thursday, July
16. for Santa Fe, New Mexico. The
| first object of his trip is to confer with
Governor Curry, July %, with regard
to the proposed additions to the Pecos
National Forest. An examination of
the withdrawn land will be made for
the purpose Of determining what part
of it shall be added to the national
forest and what part released. 1t is
expected that this examination will
take about ten days or two weeks.
On the first of September Mr.. Pot
ter and d. d. Bronson, of the forest
service will start from Phoenix, Ari-
IONA, to make an examination of the
land within the Verde National forest
for the purpose of making recOmmen-
dations regarding the regulation of
grazing These forests were created
primarily for the purpose of secur-
ing favorable conditions of water flow"
so that special care will need to be
exercised to prevent grazing from de-
feating this object.
An agreement has been made be-
tween the secretary of the interior and
the secretary of agriculture for in
vestigations of the effect of the graz
ing of sheep and goats upon the wa
tersheds within national forests which
are important to irrigation. Mr.. Pot
ter and Mr.. Bronson will, therefore
cooperate in these Investigations with
officials of the reclamation service.
Mr. Clifford Pinchot, fol has
written to the Water Users
ton and to the presidents of boz. ne
Cattle Growers and Sheep Growers
associations in Arizona informing
them of the proposed examination and
inviting them to arrange to have rep
resentatives of their several interests
accompany the representatives of the
government, if they desire to do So
Investigations of the relation of
stock grazing to water supply on other
national forests will be carried on
Jointly by the reclamation service and
the forest service whenever complaints
are received from the water users of
damage to the water by stock. In
vestigations will also be made by the
government on it's own initiative
whenever such action is necessary for
the general welfare
The results of these Investigations
will be made known as rapidly as pos
sible.
