STRUCTURE DESTROYED.
Grain Separator Goes Through Bridge
at GOrmania.

A grain separator owned by Hutchin-
son & Harvey, of Mountain Lake Park,
attempted to cross the interstate bridge
between Gormania, w. Va, and Cor
man, Md, at about D. M, Wednesday
and before it had reached the center of
the bridge the bridge gave way landing
the separator with the traction engine
in the bed of the river. Messrs. Hutch
inson & Harvey were both on the en-
CINE and the crash was so sudden that
they neither had chance to get off but
both landed in the water, which, how
ever, IS low at present. Both men
were badly scratched but escaped seri-
Gus injury. The engine was not broken
to any extent, but the separator is in
bad shape. The bridge has been con-
demned as unsafe for number of years
but has held up until now. But 10
ton engine and the separator proved too
much for it. Workmen are busy today
repairing the bridge and the owners of
the machine will be delayed some time
awaiting repairs and as this is their
busy season, they he inconvneienced
considerably. They had just finished
their work in Grant county, W. Va,
and were proceeding to Garrett county,
Maryland, where lot of work awaited
them.

AMATEUR SPORT OPENS
 IN THE FAR EAST NOW
Boston 4. A. Annual Marathon to Be Run Today; Other Sport
 Events
ASSOCIATED PRESS p1sPArcu1


 NEW YORK, April 19.-The pres ent week vii usher in the 1914 sea son of amateur athletics with events Of unusual importance. Today will witness the running of the famous annual Boston A. A. marathon race and on Saturday the week will close with the yearly relay carnival of the University of Pennsylvania at Phila delphia, which assumes an interna- tional aspect due to the presence of the Oxford university four mile relay team representing England in the premier event of the days program. These games always attract a large gathering of athletic enthusiasts to Franklin Field, but the presence and personnel of the Oxford team is such that the meet is of extraordinary in terest this season.
 In this race, which is for the four mile college relay championship of America, ten colleges and universities have entered teams to run against , Oxford, making field of eleven teams or forty-four runners, each of whom will run one mile. Both east and west is represented since the list includes Harvard, Cornell, Chicago, Pennsylvania, Princeton. Colgate, | Dartmouth. Pennsylvania State, Ohio State and Boston college. Large as this field is, however, oxford is the logical favorite, since by means of the Rhodes scholarship system and unusual circumstances the English university has a team of remarkable mile runners garnered from several parts of the world.
 The Oxford team which consist of Arnold N B. Jackson. winner of the 1 15O0-meter race al the Olympic games at Stockholm in 1912; Norman $. Taber. Rhodes scholar from Brown University, Providence, [. s. A; G. 1 M. Sproules, Rhodes scholar from Australia; D. N Gaussen and G. S Robinson, both young English ath- i letes of note, is a combination of : unusual merit. Every runner on the i team, including Robinson, who is a substitute, has record better than f 30" for the mile. The latest test of the form and ability of these run- ners was in the dual games between ! Oxford and Cambridge at the Queens club in London on March 27 This meet was held on the track and field heavy with the rain of storm which continued for several days previous to and during the games Notwithstanding the handicap, the oxford runners showed remarkable I form in the long runs.
 In New England the feature of the week is the running of the eighteenth

When Mesa goes before the league to protest the game of yesterday, Lan- gowski will have a very good chance of getting the contest repeated. Here is why:
 When Jenkins got the last strike and Williams kicked it, Barclay had a per- fectly good right to call the batter out. BUT. Barclay has got to be absolutely sure that Williams kicked the ball deliberately This he did not do. It was as entirely accidental as the original huff
 Barclays error was in not giving Williams his base. But on play like this, Morris could not have scored from third. It was what is called a blocked ball. Technically, the pitcher deserved q strike-out, the catcher an error and the batter base. The proper way to have judged the play granting that Williams accidentally booted the ball-was to have the run ner held on third and to have put Williams on the paths, scoring as indi- cated above.
 It is unfortunate that Barclay, just making his debut as an umpire, should have been subjected to such a l hard decision as this one. Outside of ! few miscalled balls and strikes, VIC cannot find anything for which to blame the former Maroon player 1 There was once when the hard i fighting Mesa team showed true i sportsmanship. It was because of a ! mishobble of Williams in a last year s game that Mesa earned the reputation
 of crabbers. Yesterday Langowski
 merely announced that he would pro
 test the game and sent his men out into the field.
 ! I he first baSeman to pitcher put out of Hudson and Barrett reminds
 us of some of the fast, clean-cut play
 of Togneri and Hall of last year.

annual marathon race of the Boston Athletic association. The history of amateur marathon racing in the United States dates back to Septem- Der 19, 1896. In the spring of that year the first revival of the Olym- pie games was held at Athens. A small but representative team of American athletes entered and won 3 majority of the events but the marathon race was won by LOues, q Greek. The American athletes on their return to this country were loud in their praise of this event and as result of their missionary work the first marathon was held under the auspices of the Knickerbocker Ath- letic club of New York city on Sept ember 19 of that year. The course was from Stamford. Conn. to Colum- bia Oval. New York city. and John J. McDermott, of the New York Pas
