the message leaves the hand Of Mayor
Elliott until 1t reacLes the hand of
Mayor Taylor 1t will not stop an in

the hands of the latter before even
ing.
During the entire distance Of eighty

boys under 10 years of age and II
will have been carried at a rate that
would wear out the best horse living.

relay team from the Grand Forks Y.

O'Clock.
The route has been staked out ac-
curately and no boy will run over half
a mile consecutively, although some OF
the older boys will run twice. They
will be distributed along the route in
automobiles which have been kindly
furnished by Fargo owners and the
autos will pick the boys uD and re-
turn them to the city.

took part in the race will meet at
