from lie Pas, Manitoba, alone remain.
ed between him and the goal.
Then Hartman became the real pace
maker, although he was ahead of his
rivals for only brief intervals. When
they wanted to rest and sleep he in
sisted on pushing ahead. They offered
%truces, but he refused. They uttered
yelled threats, but he turned a deaf
ear.
Their dogs were in much better con-
dition than Hartman's. and the men
themselves were in far better trim to
undertake a finish squirt than the ex.
hausted assayer. He knew he could
not defeat them and he realized he was
risking death by exposing himself to
the terrors of Minnesota's coolest win
ter weather in many years.
But he fought on because he had en-
tered the race without reservations or
agreements with his competitors. A
mere 100 pounds in weight, he dwindl-
ed to 100 pounds during the ten terri
Bile days of the race. but every pound
was a full sixteen ounces of pure, m
aduiterated American grit and courage.
And SO he came through to the bit
ter end. He was one of five to finish,
out Of the field OF eleven which had
started from Winnipeg. His dogs were
the poorest team in the ace. He had
less experience as a driver than any Of
his rivals.
He was a B%oston-bred college grad
uate; they we're hardened to the cold
and %privations of an outdoor life be-
cause they never had known any other.
They Travelled in groups; Hartman
played a lone hand. He met with diff
culties at every turn, and the entire
nation watched his painful progress
through the columns of newspapers.
sympathized with him and hoped for
his ultimate victory, even though that
would have been a miracle.
ON one of the coolest. stormiest days
of the entire winter, Hartman accom-
panied the other drivers to the Auditor
in st. Paul, twenty four hours after
the Derby finished. to appear briefly
before an audience that wanted to pay
him the homage due a hero. The biz
theatre, with a seating capacity Of
nearly 10000. was packed despite the
Indictment weather. Hartman was
choorod to the echo. and the enthus-
iasm that greeted him overwhelmed
the reception accorded the men who
had defeated him.
There will be other Derbies in other
yoarsA The race will be an annual in
ternational classic as a feature of ST.
Paul's outdoor Sports Carnival but a
decade of Derbies cannot produce an
other Fred Hartman.
He has become a prOtCge Of Louis W..
Hin, promoter of the dogs Derby, Pres
ident of the st. Paul Carnival Associa-
ton and one Of Americas wcalthicst
men. Despite his fame. Hartman is
modest and he has said he will enter
next years Derby with a team that
cannot be defeated.

the prom this year and without excep-
ton showed great enthusiasm over
the striking way in which the affair
was carried out.
At about eight-thirty the grand
march was begun. The junior presi-
dent, Leola LaSell, accompanied by
Theodore Steensland led the march.
At the conclusion of the dress parade
