HAHN TALKS Of
THE :SPR|NTERS
Famous Athlete Contrasts
Men He Raced During His
Amateur Career.

Walla Walla. WASH. Feb. 15.-
Archie Hahn. Whitman College ath.
letic coach, who has met and defeat
ed some of the best amateur and pro-
fessional sprinters in the world in the
last fifteen years. says that Schick of
Harvard. was the fastest man he ever
met. Hahn say Schick could start
like lightning, and that, once under
way. his long stride invariably carried
him over Il winner.
Hahn first met Schick at Pennsyl.
vania in 1903. after having beaten
practically every college man in the
west. Schick was at his best then,
and he beat the great Michigan
Splinter to the tape by a scant half
yard. Hahn came back in 1904 and
TOOK sweet revenge. beating the Har.
ward rack over three Yards. He also
defeated Scl1ick in 1856.
Hahn avs that Nat Cartmcll. for
several years regarded as the premier
sprintcr of America, was not nearly
the man thai he was cracked up to be.
Billy I:astom Fastest starter.
Sartmcll was just coming in when

Hahn, and he made his reputation
because he had no good men to go up
against, not because of his speed.

In the Olympic games at St. Louis
that year Hahn won the 60, 100 and
200 meters in handy fashion. He beat
Cartmell 5 yards in the 200 meters,
although that was Cartmelrs favorite
distance.
Hahn says that Billy Eaton, of the
Boston Athletic club, was the fastest
starter he ever met. Eaton was a

SWALLOW HAD LONG JOURNEY
Positive Proof That Bird Travelled The

-8FAL $50 oDN
The capture Of a swallow bearing
An aluminium ring in Natal, South
Africa. the other day, has resulted in
an astonishing insight into the migra-
tory habits Of birds. From a number
and address stamped on the ring it
was discovered that the swallow was
one of l1,4S3 British birds marked in
ia similar way last summer by entha-
siasts, desiring to learn more as to the
routes taken by bird migrants, and
whether birds return again to their
previous nesting sites. This systema-
tic marking of birds began in 1909,
since when nearly $4,000 have been
hinged" About three per cent. are
afterwards noted, but the swallow re-
ported from Natal appears to have
made the longest fight SO far. A

Paying Fines BY lnstaIlment.

From the Boston Globe.
The proposal of Governor Foss that
judges be given the power to allow con-
victed persons who nave been fined to pay
the fine in installments, rather than 60 to
Jail because of failure to produce the en-
tire sum-. is sensible. Its adoption might
raise some difficulties, but far more good
than harm would come from the arrange
ment. In 1911 more than 11,0O0 persons
went to jail in this commonwealth in de-
fault of fines, most of which were of mod
crate amount.
During the term a convicted person is
in jail his family as a rule is deprived of
its sole wage-earner and in addition the
prisoner usually loses his place. If the
fine were payable gradually in small sums.
much of this distress could be avoided.
Moreover, the revenue of the
wealth would be increased and the ex-
pense of our institutions lessened because
there would be fewer prisoners to feed.
Legislation that will carry out the COVER
nor's recommendation should be enacted.
