“GAMEST MAN IN WORLD” (Continued from Page 1.) endurance and true sportsmanship, Fred Hartman stands alone.” Comes on Slow Trot. That is what Mr. Hickey said after he half carried, half led the driver from the judges’ stand. Hartman had come in on a slow trot, cracking his whip bravely and endeavoring, probably without rea- lizing it, to keep up his own spirit and that of his dogs. Seeing his condition, Mr. Hickey, Tom McDermott and Louis W. Hill rushed him to a waiting limousine, giving the cheering crowd omnly a moment’s view of him. Men and women climbed on the running board of the car in' their ef- fort to shake the hand of Hartman. The door of the automobile was torn almost from its hinges. At the east end of the lake the crowd forced the car to stop again that they might see the man. . On the trip down Como avenue, Hartman sat in a daze. His mouth hung open and every few seconds he passed his hand across his brow. Mr. Hill told him of the interest the whole' country 'is- showing in him. But for fifteen minutes, the fatigued driver could not speak a word. Frozen Face Thwarts Smile. Then the cloud seemed to lift from his brain. He tried to smile, but the attempt was a failure because of his frozen face. “Are you feeling better now?” he was asked. “Who wouldn’t feel better?” he replied. “You people are simply great to me. I can’t tell you how it makes me feel.” This time as he passed his hand over his eyes, it was to brush away a tear. Then as the trip continued, and he was told that he was being taken to Mr. Hill’s home, his mind cleared completely. He spoke freely, asking first about his dogs. When told that they also were being taken to the Hill home for care and treatment, he smiled despite his frozen features, and lean- ed back in the seat in relaxation. “T don’t see why you make all this fuss over me,” he said. “Its’ been a hard race, but it was hard for the other boys, too. I thipk I was de- feated before I started. “You see, my best dog was sent by express from La Pas to Winnipeg. The train was late and it didn’t ar- rive. I had to leave without it. Thanks for His Mocassins. “Al] this kindness is a little too much for me. I don’t understand it. It has been almost as overwhelming as my tough luck. Mr. Hill, those mocassins you gave me were great. I thank you for them.” “DO IT NOW” MOTTO OFPRGHIBITIONISTS St. Paul, Feb. 5.—The Prohibi- tionists, the boys who made the Anti- Saloon league come out and be on the level for a change in its *“dry” program in the House, will start the Bethesdo spring bubbling Monday with a measure to make Minnesota dry by legislative enactment. This program is a ‘“dry as dust” proposal with a *“‘do it now” accelera- tor . Representative Anderson of Goodhue will put in the measure which would make this state a Sa- hara, without a single oasis on and after Jan. 1,1919. When it goes in it is expected that the name of An- derson will be accompanied by nearly a dozen other names. The deluge of votes that sent the Gandrud-Larson constitutional amend ment bill to the Senate has encour- aged the genuine temperance men to believe that “dry by statute” has a good chance.
