To-Day's Great Race at London--Canada, United States and Britain Each Had Twelve Competi- tors. To To win the, Marathon race is pro- bably ome of the highest honors at- tainable in athletic circles the world over, and Sherring carried off the palm of victory for Canada two years ago at Athens. Consequently Cana- dians have béen banking high on "he chances of Longboat, the Ingian won- der, who has recently acquired such fame. Although there can' be no pre- cise record for the Marathon race, ow: ing to the fact that the distance vdr- jes from yeur to year, it will net be out. of place to give the results since the revival of the Olympic games at Athens some twelve years ago. T were as follows : 1896, . Athens ; winner, Lones (Greece); distance 24 miles 1,500 yards; time, 2 hours, 28 minutes, 50 seconds. 1900, Paris; winner, Teati (France). 1904, St. Louis; winner, Hicks (Am- erica). 1906, Athens; The Course of winner, Sherring (Canada); distance, 26 miles: time, 2 hours, 51 minutes; 23 3-5 geeonds. This year the distance of the race is approximately twenty-five miles, 600 vards. The contestants started from Windsor, crossing the Thames . to Eton, and proceeding past Eton col- lege to Slough. They then passed: in turn Uxbridge, lckenham and: Ruis- lip till they reached Pinner and Har- yow. A 1,200 yards run parallel with the Metropolitan railway brought them to Sudbury, whenee they proceeded to Wood Lane vig Willesden and Worm- wood Scrubs, finishing: in front of the centre. grand stand at the stadium where the last one-third was run in full view of the spectators. There were in all .seventy-three enc tries for the Marathon race, sevenieen countries being represented, Of these only three--Canada, the United King- dom and the United States--had a full team of twelve, Sweden, with seven, being mext best. The other countries represented were South Africa ard Holland, with five each; Australasia, Germany and Italy, with three each; Greece, Denmark and Austria, with two each, and Finland, Belgium, Rus- sia. Bohemia and Hungary with ome each. Notes On Sport. Hamilton Times : 'I'hose metres that Bobby Kerr is rolling off at the Olyme piad are as fast as some of our elec- tric light meters. The Yankee aspersions on British sportsmanship are keenly resented in London. 'The Mail publishes the opin- jons of representative people, foreign and colonial. Mr. 'Tasse, of Ottawa, says : 'We thought we were coming ton country where sport has been carried on with fair play, and we have not been disappointed." Kerr, of Canada, is believed to be 5 little stale as the result of too much work. He. has been running two races a dav for the past week, The 2,000 Y.M.C.A. ranners finished their run from New York to Chicago in 119 hours, 22 minutes for the 1. 000 miles.

Danish investigators have found a means of checking the downward mi- gration of. breeding cels to the sea, whereby it is hoped that a valuable food supply may be saved for the country, for these migrating eels when, they have once reached the sea never return to their native rivers. The method is simplicity itself. A large acetylene searchlight is placed by the river bank in such a position that its rays can be made to illuminate the comparatively shallow water, and it is found that by this means the down- ward movement of the fish can effectively chet ked be How Alaska Indians Fish. Correspondence Forest and Stream. 1 saw Indians on the Chileat fishing day and night. The fisherman walked along the bank carrying a pole on the end of which was a barb- Jess steel hook. Tossing the hook end of the pole into the stream he turned it so that the elbow rested on the bottom. Then he gently drew the pole back and forth, and when he felt a fish strike the shaft he knew that a {salmon was probably crossing over the pole, so he gave it a quick jerk, drove the hook into the fish's side and hauled it up on the bank. This" is called snagging salmow. nver Had A Conscience. "My boy, vou have saved my life," a young swell exclaimed, as he tried to wring the water out of his clothes at a well-known seaside resort, "Let me reward you." He thrust his hand into his trousers pocket gud brought out a three-penny piece. "There, my boy, this is for you; but don't spend it foolishly." "No, sir, I can't take it, sir," the boy replied, ss he pushed the generous hand aside ; "I didn't earn it." : "Why, you saved my life, boy !"" "Yes, 1 know; but it ain't worth three pence."

Fool-Proof Railroad Signal Device Invented. : ; There ave several good railroad sig lisions and wrecks continue to An automatic gl foolproof system is the thing needed, and the plaim now made that this has been attain- ed. At the suggestion of the! inter- state commerce commission the = New York Central is going to permit the test of an electrical apparatus that seems theoretically capable of meet ing the condifions stated" above! As operated in model form noyflaw can he digcovered in wf. ¢ 3 The Nycutt train ston, as the inven tion is called, is different from the present €ystem of hlock signals, which are operated after the train has pags- ed out of the block, settirigithe sig nal for any folowing train.» In thiy new system the track is testedian the block ahead of the train, ane is in constant communication' with sthe cab of the locomotive, so that the; engi neer can at all times tell the * condi- tion of the trgeks Any defect jin: the roadied in this Block, suchas an open broken rail, over-hanging 18 switch, a cars, a car broken away from a train, is automatically detected and made known, first, hy a red light in the in- dicator of the. cab, guitk, the blowing of a whistle upon the lotomotive. Se- condly, should the engineer fail . to obey the danger signal, the air-brakes will be set automatically. An im- portant feature in the system is that all switches are automatically locked when the train is in the block, se that it is impossible to open a switch in front of an approaching train, Each locomotive is supplied with: a. set of wire brushes which come in contact with the third and fourth rail when passing over them, antl in each loco- motive is also placed a small dynamo in direct connection with the steam turbine, generating the electricity ta control the valve, which is connected with the air-brake. And on electric railroads the power is controlled from the motors. The valve. is supplied with a magnet, the armature of which keeps it closed while it is being mag- netised. Should the current be broken in any way by a broken rail, an open switch, or the track become short cir- cuited by a car standing in the block the magnet: loses its power, afid the pressure of the air opens this valve, thereby allowing the air to rush out, setting the brakes on the rail: Unlike the present system, where the connection must be made to show danger, and should it fail imany way by the insulation giving out, or the galvanic batteries which operated it, the system nged only be broken to show danger, and. should anything havpen to thé apparatus. in any way either on the tratk or on' the'engine: the current would be broken and the danger signal set. In this system al the electricity is generated by the dy- namo, doing awav' with all the 'gal- vanie hatteries which "are placed in battery wells along the road, and are constantly getting out of order, nal devices, but most of them depend | so much on the human factor that col- | occur, | / POWER & SONS, ARCHITECTS, MER- chant's Bank Building, corner Brock | and Wellington streets.

NOT A JOYOUS HONEYMOON. the Saddle Fighting For Freedom. National Magazine; The honeymoon of Garibaldi and his wife Anita was a campaign of brilliant sen fights that would have done credit to John Paul Jones. At its disastrous ending, when their ammunition was ex- hausted and it was time to take to the woods, Anita fired the last cannon shot, helped to lay the trains to blow Passed in THE PARAGRAPH PULPIT Unitarian. REV, C. W. CASSON. God's Favor. Nothing depends upon either the favor or the mercy of God. Let us at last rid our minds of the idea that God is to be moved by any petition or swerved from a just purpose by the impulse of a prayer. To speak of the favor of God is to impute the fault of favoritism to Him. To speak of His mercy is to assert that His kind- ness causes Him to cancel what be- fore Hig wisdom decreed. God works up the vessel and was the last over | the rail as the ship went to the bot tom of the sea. ~To the woods they | went and there began Garibaldi's greater career as one of the military | marvels of the century. In the service of Rio Grande de Sul, with military supplies always at the zero point, this picturesque soldier de- veloped a genius for battle, a skill in retreat, a persistence in pursuit and a patience in canip "that amazed the Brazilians, endeared him to his fol- lowers and made him the idol of An jta. It was a wap of magnificent dis tances and short ration. Hand-to hand fights with: the bayonet and 100 mile flights over vas} stretches of treeless plain and pathless wilderness were the lot of all who in those days rode with Garibaldi, Whether it was the heart-breaking. retreat--with privations and sufferings almost wn thinkable--or the tireless pursuits, only a little lees gavage in its gerrors, Anita rode with the general. At the end of one of the forced marches--a flicht of unusual length and great hardshin--Menotti was born. Twelve days thereafter the de: voted mother, the embodied spirit of the splendid trooper, was again in the saddle. With the child in her arms and her carbine at her back, she was in her usual place at the head of the column. Never Before.
