so ia this season Jones's most not
able success was in winning again the
intercollegiate cross-country title, This
was the first time any athlete had ever
duplicated premier honors in this
event. Before the race there had been
such speculation as to whether Jones
could break this pecedent.

J. z. Houee, the well l-known Kansas
writer, has the following in recent
issue Of the Topeka Capital about Dick
Cooley's experience as a baseball mag
nate In Topeka, Western league city:
Every time we recall the indignation
which the fans Of Topeka expressed
aeainst old Dick Cooley we laugh; Old
Dick was an extra good baseball man
who had given Topeka two Pe9nants
in four years and never finished out

dicted a great athletic future for him,
as in practice he was regularly van
gushing such Cornell distinguish ed
stars as Young and Berna, each of
whom had won an intercollegiate cross
country championship
The next year Jones first rose to pub
lie notice by winning this intercollegi-
ate cross country championship him
self, an unusual feat for sophomore.
Before this race Jones had been
troubled with strained knee, and 1t
was generally believed that he would
not run. But he competed and sur-
prised everybody, defeating Bernn, the
former champion, by 200 yards.
TONES'S next great achievement
~ was his historic performance at the
intercollegiate championships in May:
1911. Here, on the same day, he shat
tered two long standing records, the
intercollegiate half-mile and the
worlds mile mark. The latter had
been made by Tommy Connect when a
full-grown man in his prime, with ten
years Of experience. Jones lowered II
when under twenty, and with less than
half the number Of years OF experience
Conneff possessed
When Jones was asked in regard to
this famous mile whether he had ever
felt that he had the race in hand dur
ing it's progress, he smiled; "Only at
the end. 1 didn't let up till the very
finish.
"But this wasn't the hardest race
of my career, though Hannvan Of Mich

had. I've run aome Of my hardest

 Since January 1st the police depart ment has been on the verge of star vation for lack of business Ctr court has been barren and empty; to- day, there was none at all.
