Svanburg went the full distance OF

that between the twenty-fOurth and twen-

walk and lost q lot Of time; in fact, IL
took him sos 90 to do the twenty-fifth
mile. That he tired toward the end was
plain and he said he was taken with a
stitch and chill. Up to about the twenty
second mile Svanburg went well, but from
that 70 the finish his steam seemed to
slacken. The Indian gave up and left
the track after he had covered sixteen
miles, and then he was more than half a
