The feature of the Olympic
games to be held just outside of
Paris this summer is the mara
thon race.
The marathon is the most ia
nous race in the world. With
out question it is the most de-
sired prize to be won i'm athletics.
The idea of this race sprang
from fact and fancy. II is a
romantic revival OF a fatal run
made by a Greek soldier bearing
the news of victory from the bat
tIefieId of Marathon to Athens
a distance officially determined to
be twenty-six miles 1856 yards.
This gallant soldier ran the
whole distance at terrific pace,
arrived before the Acropofs in
Athens, delivered his immortal
message: Rejoice! We conquer!'
and then dropped dead.

Unfortunately the real identity
of the strong -Iimbed martyr who
carried the word of victory to the
awaiting magistrates in Athens
will never be known. The original
run of Marathon is buried under
the dust of antiquity. History
gives several uames-Thersippus,
Eroeadae, Philippines and Phei-
dippides.
Herodotus, the ancient his
torian, says Philippines, but
Byron has more or less popular
lied the name of Pheidippides in
a famous poem.
The idea of the present-day
marathon was born in the brain
of q German official in charge of
the first revival in 1896 at Athens
of the Olympic games.
The first winner of this classic
was Louex, a Greek, much to the
delight of his countrymen. Loues
ran over practically the same
ground from Marathon to Athens
as was trod by the illustrous
Pheidippides z.3S6 years before
