REGRET BOUIN'S DEATH.
Great French Runners Passing Casts
Damper Over Athletes.

NEW YORK, October 1.-THE news
of the death of Jean Bouin, the great
French distance runner, on the field
of battle in France has caused sincere
regret to all who have had the pleas
ure of meeting the dashing Frenchman,
who holds the worlds amateur record
for running one hour.
AS an athlete Bouin was superb
every inch of him. He had everything
speed, strength and a type of bulldog
grit that is supposed to be found only
in an Englishman. No person who saw
the 1912 Olympics at Stockholm will
ever forget the superb race Bouin ran
against Hannes Kohlemainen. The
distance was miles and nearly 200
yards $4,000 meters). At the crack of
the gun Bouin bounded away like a
sprinter and ran in the van until with
in fifty yards from home. where Kohle-
mainen jumped up beside the French
man and beat him to the tape by less
than one foot. Kohlemainen made a
record that day that he will never
equal, and he accomplished il because
Bouin pulled him along SO fast

the Electricians last Monday, Transpor-
tation did not roll in it's usual good
form, due partly to the fact that Miller,
anchor man, and Billy Williams, cap
tain, were not in the lineup. Trans
portation has some good men on its
roster. and no doubt will be heard from
with some big games before the season
is over.
Electricians, although getting off to
a bad start thus far this season, have
the nucleus for good team, and the
captain hopes to put Ave men on the al
leys in the near future who will make
the other teams hustle.

back strong in the second with 502 and
495 in the third. winning both games

while Heck. with 121, was close sec

spelling a good set.
