Shrubb abd St. Yves passed _ Dorâ€" ando and Longboat tor the first gain of a lap on them in the thirteenth. The fourteenth saw some pretty jockâ€" cying by Shrubb and St. Yves. The crowd couldn‘t figure ont â€" whether the Frenchman was trying to worry Shrubb or was simply impatient at running sesond. He â€" would _ sprint wildly for a time, gain the lead and then drop back to second place. ‘The ninth mile brought Longboat, the Canadian Indian, to the front of the pack that _ followed St. Â¥ves. There was an immediate _ response from the Canadian contingent as the lanky Iudian loped _ out ahead _ ol Shrubb and Dorando. He had drawn to within 50 yards of St. YÂ¥ves in the tenth, when Shrubb started _ a sprint that soon brought him on even terms with the Feenchman. He passâ€" ed St. Yyes and finished the ten miles in 57 minutes 16 1â€"5 seconds. There were shouts from the followers of the French and English runncrs as these two continued to gain on the others. As they circled the course timg and lime again St. YÂ¥ves almost touched Shrubb‘s elbow, so close were they running, the crowd began to wonder how long the Frenchman‘s short jerky strides would carry him at such a pace. "He‘ll quit at filteen," was a prediction heard frequently. St. Yves gained the coveted distâ€" ance on Shrubb in the bwentieth mile and thete was a great roar from the crowd, while the band again honored the leader by _ playing the _ French national anthem. Â¥t. 2 ves umc ivk twenty miles was one hour 57 minâ€" utes 241 4â€"5 seconds, mote than two minutes ahcad of the Marathon _ reâ€" cord for the distance. On the first lap of the 25th mile Dorando passed Shtrubb, going into second place. A few moments later Shrubb gave up, and staggered toward his dressing room completely exhausted. _ From this point to the finisk, the _ crowd watched only the struggle for second Longboat shortly after dropped out of the race thoroughly spent. | _ Dorando at once leaped into : the lead at a fast pace, closcely followed by St. Yves, Shrubb and â€" Longboat, Maloncy and Hayes fell behind several yards and took up a steady grind. In this order they ran for five laps, Hayes stcadily dropping behind, when St. YÂ¥ves passed Dorando and began a sprint that brought the crowd to its feet. He gained sixty yards and tinished the first mile in 5. minutes 11 seconds. ‘There were many Frenchâ€" men present in the stand, and the band stirred their enthusiasm with the Marscillaise. The short _ choppy: strides of the Frenchman â€" did _ not impress the crowd, and > there were cries of "Oh, he‘ll come back, all right," At ten minutes after 3 o‘clock, the men were sent _ away with a pistol shot by "Big Tim‘" Sullivan. $5,000 of the prize money, Darando $2,500, Hayes $1,500 and _ Maloney $1,000.

Six of the best runners in the world, competing for a small fortunc in prizes, called out a crowd that packed the newly arranged stands of the polo grounds to the point of standing room. â€" The day was not ~pleasant for an outdoor function, but the 30,000 suectators, or at least the large majority â€" sitâ€" ting on the pleachets, spread _ umâ€" brellas against the mild April showâ€" ers that fell during the first hour of the race, or took the moisture in good spirits without lessening their enthusiasm. St. YÂ¥ ves, the uimost unknown, who figured but little in the forecasts of the race, covered the Marathan distâ€" ance, 26 miles, 385 yards, in 2 hours 10 minutes 50 3â€"5 seconds, a remarkâ€" able performance under the conditions and finished with a fast sprint in good condition. Dorando was _ four minutes fortyâ€"seven and threceâ€"fiths seconds behind the Frenchman, while Hayes, the third man, followed â€" the Italian across the finish line _ three minutes and fifty seconds later.

The Ontario Government is doing a good deal in assisting to maintain consumptive bospitals and the cost locally would not be very great. Among the new buildings that have been erected thore is an infirmary, acâ€" commodating 12 patients, costing in the ‘neighborhood of $6500, and two shacks, single boarded, costing about $£800 cach, and accommodating _ ten patients each. _ The cost of â€" these buildings, he explaimed, were higher on account of the distance from the city.
