ELEVEN ART|LLERYMEN BLOWN To

CHALLENGE ON
SAUL'S BEHALF

On the authority of superintendent
Charles +. Burton, The Sentinel de-
sires to issue a challenge on behalf
of Saul Halyye, the wonderful young
Indian runner of the Teller institute,
this city. to any runner the world
over for a Marathon race to be run in
this city or in Denver or some place
mutually agreed upon.
Saul the wonderful little Hopi run
ner does not place any limit upon
the miles to be run. he is willing to
run ten. fifteen or twenty miles but
would prefer the Marathon distance
of twenty-six miles and a fraction.
Saul has a perfect right to issue
this challenge as he has beaten some
of the best runners that the west can
produce.
He has defeated easily those who
have been in the national Marathon
races and he says he fears no one at
/ the Marathon distance. He says he
has never been put on his mettle in
Marathon race. as those against
whom he has contested, have been
such easy victims of the fast little
runner that, he does not know what
he really can do.
Mr.. Burton is very anxious that
Saul be included in some race of ma
tional importance. He would like
the race to be run in this city during
the big annual fair, but he is willing
to make it elsewhere, If he cannot
get anyone to accept his challenge
here.
Here is a chance for some of these
boasted runners to go against one of
the gamest racers in the history of
the country.
