SPOUTS BY THE
SPORTING EDITOR

CHICAGO, May 29.-John Swan
borg, a Swede, was the winner in the
International Marathon race run
here today. Svanborg defeated the
French champion, st. Ives; the Can.
adian Indian, Longboat, and tho
American winner of the London
Marathon, Hayes. His time for the
full Marathon distance was two
hours and forty-eight. minutes.
And the cry is still they come e
all of the world heaters, too, at that
and the latest Is a Swede, John
Svanborg, who has won the Inter-
national Marathon race run at Chi
cago.
ST. Yves. the man who created
Iuch a sensation by beating the
other cracks few weeks ago, had,
in turn, to lower his flag to the new
est long-ldstance runner to appear
On the scene. Longboat and Hayes
were also among those who finished
behind the Swede. who must be II
good man over a distance for sure.
The time, two hours and forty
eight minutes, is excellent, and as
soon as we get the mainland papers
end see the way the race was run
we will be able to draw comparisons
between the new. man and the rest
OF the bunch.

So Bat Nelson, after all his music
hall stunts and his taking Of things
easy in training, managed to put his
kindly hand on Dick Hyland and Mll
him to sleep. 1t was just about what
could be expected, as Hyland is one
of the ever-increasing bunch Of has
beens. Nelson. on the other hand, Is
about the best example Of a light
weight that the world has ever seen;
his capacity for taking punishment
is marvellous, and he never knows
when he is licked.
BY taking over twenty rounds to
beat Hyland, Nelson shows that he
was not in his best form, and It is
thought that the Coast papers will
show that 1t was only his grit that
pulled him through to victory.

Frank Epperson, vice president Of
the Manning 6 Epperson State bank,
learned Wednesday through the press
dispatches that he had drawn farm
in the Occur d'Alene Indiana reserva-
tlon in Idaho. his number being 1868,
but as there will likely be many even
below that number who will not home
stead their claims he will likely get &
claim much lower in the list. He, as
die many others who went from the
east to the Alaska Yukon exposition,
stopped at the reservation and regis
tered for a claim with ,ut little idea
of winning, and is to be congratulate
ted on his good fortune.
Forest Johnson of Sand Ridge who
went to Trip county. South Dakota.

his claim.
Mr. Cummings, assistant chief en-
gineer of the Iowa Central had force
of men at work last week making
the survey for a switch which they are
thinking of building from the main
line of the Central across the river. 1t
1t planned to run a line about half a
mile In length across the land of
Chas. Hohl and A. z. johnson, then
span Miller's Creek and cross the Laf-
ferty farm to the stone quarry of ]. A..
Lafferty. "A short time ago a contract
or at Grinnell attempted to close up a.
contract with Mr.. Lafferty, whereby
Mr.. Lafferty was to furnish him with
1900 yards of stone to be used in
paving at Grinnell, but Mr.. Lafferty
was unable TO handle so large a con-
tract as the stone would have to be
loaded abroad the cars 1t is quite
probable that the switch will be built
in order that Mr.. Lafferty may be
able to handle this and other large
orders in the future, and as the pres
ent contract requires crushed stone,
he will be able to give men employ
ment at his stone quarry the year
round, SO that the switch will be of
considerable benefit to Eddyville as
well as to Mr.. Lafferty and the Iowa
Central.
