feared man in the Olympic Marathon,
is puzzle to the athletic world. Two
years ago he was unknown. On

In a field of thirty of the best distance
runners on the American continent.
The betting was 100 to against him,
and the very fact that an obscure In
dian. with practically no training, won
the race, which was classic event,
made the country sit up and take no
tice. Since that day the Indian has
won race after race with consummate
ease, his most remarkable feat being
when last spring he ran in the Boston
Marathon race, twenty-five mile
American road fixture. There he met
115 United States and Canadian run
ners and won by nearly a mile. The
most remarkable fact concerning Long
boat is that he runs fiat footed, smokes
continually and trains only in spas
modic manner.

The scattered remains of man
were found near Grand Rapids, strewn
along the track for zoo feet. From
clothing and other evidences found on
the body it was identified as Carl

that he went to sleep on the track and
