26 THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, SUNDAY, MAY 51, rowo. SCIENCE OF MIDDLE- DISTANCE RUNNING. True Positions for the Arms and Legs When in Action. Keep Your Eyes on the Finish and Pay No Heed to Opponents. Suggestions in Training for Those Who Are Fat and Those Who Are Lean. In this letter we will take up what is known among athletes as “‘middle distance running.” Sprint running refers to dis- tances between 50 and 440 yards. The lat- ter distance, it will be remembered, is a quarter of a mile, and it is the limit of sprint running. Now, middle distauce running refers to distances ranging from 440 yards to three-fourths of a mile. The latter is popular only because it is an im- aginary even distance. As a matter of fact, however, it is a very uneven distance, if we are t6 regard a quarter, a half and a | mile as standard races. One thousand yards is 120 yards over a half (880 yards), | or not quite three-fifths of a mile. Now there are some men who are won- | derfully sirong at the shorter runs that find a hali-mile very wearing on them; therefore all successful runners have ulti- mately to make up their minds what dis- tance they will choose. Let me give a few illustrations of nature’s peculiarities in this airection. Arthur Waldron, champion 100-yard runner of 1883, time 10}{ seconds, was a second-class man at 220 yards and posi- | tively outclassed at & quarter mile. H. S. Brooks leit Berkeley and went to Yale University in 1881. While there he ran 220 yards in 223-5 seconds, turning acurve, and beat the celebrated L. E. Meyers, cham- | pion quarter-mile runner of the world. Yet Brooks could run 100 yards in only 10 1-5 seconds, while at 440 yards he has barely beawen 51. C. M. Smith won the half-mile cham- pionship of 1886, and I have seen him run the distance in 2 min. 1 sec,, yet he has de- clared a quarter-mile race so punishing to him that he never ran the distance after his second year, when he went close to 50 sec. He found a mile the most com- fortable race. L. E. Meyers was probably | the greatest all-round as well as the most | reliable runner of the century. [ saw him | run 100 yards in 10 sec. in 1880, and beat W. G. George, chempion of England, in a iaile run in 1885. But Meyers dreaded the latter distance and said that even three- | quarters of a mile was dreadful punish- ment. H. Fredericks won the mile cham- ip four successive years, from 1880 | to 1883, his best time being 4 Yet | Fredericks was so poor for 2 half mile that | he never trusted himself with first-class company at the distance. Moreover, he was never known torun overa mile—at least to my knowledge. These statistics and illustrations demon- strate that there is a vast diffcrence in people, and that this difference is as true | among runners &8s among the mass of mankind. It is necessary, therefore, for | the ambitious athlete to watch himsels | closely, and determine by experience, | study and advice what his best distance | is. Cases have been known where young | men have struggied along for two or three | seasons, running the sprints without much | success. At length in g fit of discourage- | ment they have entered a half mile race just to change their luck, when, to their‘ astonishment they have won by a fine | turn of speed. In running a quarter of a mile a man | should get into his running almost as quickly as in a short distance, for there is Do time to be lost. Then he shoula take a i long clean stride and run himself out, re- | membering, though, that he has auite a | distance to travei, considering that it is a | sprint. The arms should be raised and | the step must be quick—not so quick as in | 100, but as long, particularly from 100 to | 350 yards. When the Jatter mark has been | passed the tuc of war begins. For ninety | yards the runner must punish himself if | his opponents are worthy of him. If his legs feel like stone and his feet like flat- irons he should not concern himself, for the men with him are just as tired as he, When® you enter the home stretch fix your eyes on the finish, comforting your- | self that you have only fifty yards to go, and the pleasure that will greet your vic- tory. Pay no more attention to your opponents than if they were not present. Look around at your peril! Look neither to the right nor to the left, but concentrat- inz all your energies on one thought, for- get your numerous aches and pains and throw yourself toward and across the tape. A balf-mile is a different proposition. In that your stride must be long, but with- out straining. Start off with a long but strong lope, feeling, however, that it will not exhaust you. At 220 yards you should feel good ; at half-distance you should feel vigorous, but not fresh. At 660 yards it is time to feel very, very tired, but not thor- oughly exhausted, as the last furlong isa long distance for & man to travel who is completely played out. Bear in mind, however, that you will make a grave mis- take if you reach three-qnarters of the dis- tance fresh and full of running. The only exception to this rule is-when your op- vonent is a stronger and steadier runner than yourself and you are a better spurter. The sprint is a short-distance run. The spurt is a different thing, however. It has reference to a short distance, it is true, but it is a burst of speea ir a longer race. 1f two men race for a mile, and one hangs behind the other until 100 yards from home and then lets out, passing his oppo- nent at the finish, it is called a spurt. One writer has said that three things are required of a middle distance runner: Speed, strength and pluck. He is right; speed is necessary, becguse the distance is comparatively short; strength to carry one through the race at a fast clip, with no chance to ease up; and pluck, because for most people a hara race of a half-mile or thereabouts is & punishing ordeal, For a man inclined somewhat to fat the following suggestions for commencing training will avply: Dress in a thick sweater and heavv breeches, and take a spin of a mile or two at an easy gait,which will start the perspiration flowing freely. Follow this by & bath and a rub down: then start home for supper or dinner, a4 the case may be. The immediyte effect of sharp physical exercise is to stupefy the | sense of hunger for the time, so that one does not mind having the evening meal an hour or two late. 3 After the first spin the distance may be increased to two or three miles, but no more. Keep this up for about two weeks, and by that time you will find a good part of your superfluous fat has disappeared: the stiffness and soreness will also have disappearea from the limbs, and the breathing improved by the diminution of fat about the heart and lungs. Many run- ners are not troubled with much fat, and can therefore get into condition quicker than others. When within a few pounds of racing trim sweaters should be thrown aside, as it is a good plan to have a little extra flesh for hard every-day training, snd it is not well to take off the last extra pound until just previous to your race, there being some danger of your ‘*‘going stale” if you do. Half-mile runners are generally divided into two classes—those who have consider- able speed naturally, or who are inclined to be stout, and those who have plenty of endurance, or who are inclined to lean- ness. Now such diversity of ‘*habit,” as it is called, demonstrates the necessity. of different kinds of training. Those who have a natural turn of speed and those who are inclined to be stout should prac- tice distances exceeding half a mile; those who are strong and are not exhausted by the distance need to run quarters and fre- quent dashes of 220 yards. Those who are not troubled with fat should not take long enervating runs, both because it is not necessary and because they are likely to wear a person out. Some lean men, how- ever, are so vigorous as to be able to stand more than others. As for running the actual race a writer has said: For this distance it is necessary to acquire a knowledge of pace in order to hit off the happy medium between going off so fast that he runs himself out before the distance covered, or, on the other hand, starting slowly that he falls behind & greater distance than he is able afterward to pick up. It is very unsatisfactory to finish fresh and full of running and yet a considerable way in the rear. An athlete enters on a course of sprint- running. How is he going to practice starting if he cannot get any one to fire a pistol for him? Necessity has provided a substitute that, although not equal to a pistol shot, is nevertheless very clever and better than mnothing. Secure an empty tomato can; stand on your mark ready to start, except the final position. Now, throw the can in the air and to the rear as far as you can. Immediately settle into position, standing exactly as you would if about to run the race of your life. About the time the can strikes the ground you will be ready and waiting; then go off as though shot from a cannon. For those who are troubled with thirst, but do not want to indulge it, accept a suggestion. Gargle the mouth and throat with water as hot as you can bear, and General Sheridan Charger Rienzi, Which He Made the Famous Ride From “Winchester, 20 Miles Away.” on A COLTISH HORSE AT THIRTY-FOUR, The Famous Niles Equine for Whom Age Has No Terrors. He Was Always Treated Kindly and Is a Stranger to All Fear. Without a Windgall or Blemish of Any Sort—Works With a Mere Colt of 16. The natural span of equine life is some- thing of which we as yet know very little. Whether the domesticatea animal is longer-lived than the horse in his wild state, or whether the pressure of civiliza- tion and the artificial circumetances of captivity tend to shorten his years, no one has yet been able to decide. As a general thing, however, among us, the horse who has reached the age of 18 years is considered to have outlived his active usefulness, and the animal who con- tinues hale and sound for twenty years is usnally regarded with curiosity and cher- ished as an object of pride by his owner. After 20 he is deemed, like the human octogenarian, to be “living on borrowed time,” There arc a good many instances of famous horses who have lived to aripe old age. Bucephalus, the wonderful war- horse of Alexander the Great, was 30 when he died, and Bavieca, the equine comrade of the Cid, famed in song and story, was not much younger at his death, y Then there was Jafa, the white Egyptian charger of the great Napoleon, who was killed at the age of 37, having grown too old and feeble to help himself and get about. Rienzi, the glorious Black Hawk horse ridden by General Sheridan on his famous rush from Winchester, died in 1878, aged 28, and Traveler, the equally famous charger of General . Robert E. Lee, who died soon after his master did, was milk-white with age at the time. I saw, & year or two 2go, a gray mare by Pilot Jr., that wonderful sire of old-time | speedy ones, who, although then 27 years old, was as sound as a dollar and full of life and good spirits, and an old mare that used to pull a phaeton about the streets of Oakland, but who died about two years OLD SAM, the Horse That Is Coltish at 34 Years of Age. Owned by William Barry of Niles. ago, was known to be long past30. This old mare had crossed the plains three times from Oakland to St. Joseph, Mo.. after which she served a dozen yearsor more in various livery stables. But up near Niles, in Alameda County, William Barry has an old horse whose record goes ahead even of this wonderful old mare, who in her later days was knee- sprung, string-halt, rat-tailed and nearly blind. Old Sam, Mr. Barry’s equine vet- eran, is close upon 35 years old, and looks good for a dozen years more. Isaw Sam the other day on the road, hitched to a big farm wagon beside his mate, a mere colt of 16 summers or so, to whom hx's master still refers as ‘the young horse.” It was such a hot day as the Weather Bureau man has been turning out lately, and the ‘‘young horse” was sweating laboriously along, while beside him.Sam jogged unconcernedly, without turning a hair. A very handsome bay is old Sam, grown a little hollow in the back and favoring one knee slightly of late, a result, his owner fears, of having been overpulled in the recent farm work. But his eyesare clear and. full of fire. His well-opened nostrils quiver and dilate with excitement over every strange object, and his interest in life is keen and unmistakable. Not a windgall or a blemish of any sort marsh is clean, well-formed legs and trim ankles. Even the slightly sprung knee is firm and supple, and the old horse steps as proudly as any thoroughbred. In fact, his fine lines, his long, straight tail, thin, silky mane and short, shining hair, together with the stories of his wonderful endur ance, bespeak a thoroughbred strain in his blood, but his pedigree is wholly un- known. Mr. Barry bought him, with bis half-brother, who matched him very per- fectly, at a sale of Oregon horses at Hay- wards in the spring of 1868 for $400. Sam was then six or seven years old, the mate a year or so younger. The latter died in 1887, cut down untimely by an acute iliness in the flower of his youth, scarce 24 years old, and *‘the young horse” was bought to keep Sam company. But the old horse makes life very lively for his youthful comrade, and 1s by far the more coltish of the two. Turned loose in the corral, after being unhitched from the big wagon, he came first to Miss Barry and then to his master, coaxing to have his bridle removed, that he might the more easily drink. Then back from the trough he came to have the restof the harness removed, after which he took a turn about the corral, kicking up his heels and tossing his head, eying me askance the while as a stranger and interloper upon bis domain. Then down he went for a roll, and here the old fellow gave the first indication of his extreme age. He got down behind first, bending his knees and Mr. Barry’s Orchard at Niles, With Cherry Trees Twenty-Five Years Old. letting himself down easy, cow fashion, General Lee’s Horse Traveler, Who Was Milk White With Age When He Died, Saon After is Master. then rinse with water merely warm. The philosophy of the matter is this: Thirst is caused by a pecuiiar condition of the membrane of the mouth. Dryness does not alone cause tkirsy, for I have been thirsty on a damp, foggy day; I have been comfortable on a clear, dry day; desiring water on a cold and at ease on a warm day. It seems to me that two or three things are at the bottom of the trouble, and my deductions are as follows: We eat our meals, for instance, and necessarily there must be left on the lining of the mouth a film of grease. This prevents the saliva and water from saturating and refreshing the membrane. Salt meat or fish leaves a deposit which is sure to excite thirst. Moreover, the saliva may issue in a conai- tion which contains less water than usual, | and is consequently somewhat like muci- lage, or ‘“spitting cotton’ it is called, Now, these substances need to be washed away by hot water ora little lemonade, while the warm water is recommended to excite a little nausea at the very thought of drinking. GEorGE D. Bargp. CLAIMS TO PRECEDENCE. As the tired murderer took his way over the hot plains of Esdraelon suddenly the Con- stable of Nod stood before him. “Come, fellow,” he cried, rudely, “this war. rant is for you.” Cain drew himself up haughtily. “*Sir,” he replied, in a severer tone, tle more respectful in your speech.” The constable gave vent to & mocking laugh. “Inasmuch as to why ?”” he wanted to know, ‘with a leer. Cain pulled his mantle about him closely. “Because,” he replied, with & prond gesture, “you are addressing 8 member of one of the first families.” And before the constable could gasp twice Cain had disappeared in a cloud of sand over the edge of the desert. “bes It A FINISHED SMITH.

Then he came and stood beside his mas- ter in a confidential sort of way, still | keepine a safe distance from me, an inter- ested spectator of all his movements. I never saw a yearling colt more manifestly shy of strangers. It was only after a deal of coaxing on my part and of sniffing and smelling upon Sam'’s that he finally let me stroke his glossy neck. *“He has never been made timid by abuse, has he?’ 1 asked, somewhat surprised at this. “‘Abuse! Look here,” and raising his clenched fist high in the air, Mr. Barry brought it down witk a sudden, swift swing of the arm, but light asa feather, straight between Sam’s eyes. The old horse never flinched or dodged. He only bhinked, mildly, and moved not a muscle. It was evident that he did not know the meaning of a blow. ‘““He’s not afraid he will be hurt,” said his owner. But old Sam does not like modern im- provements. He is still pulling the high spring wagon to which he was hitched when Mr. Barry bought him, twenty-eight years ago, and he does not see what this mad, hurrying world wants of new vehicles, In particular he dislikes the bicycle, and only a fortnight ago took the bit in his teeth and ran away with Miss Barry, by way of expressing his disapproval of the silent rival within his territory. Electric cars and locomotive engines he can toler- ate. He has no use for them himself, and he evidently thinks them unwortny of his notice, 8o passes them by with silent con- tempt, but the bicycle he ‘‘despises,”” and never fails to create remoteness between it and himself when he meets one on the road. The old horse has not been a stay-at- home bv any means. Mr, Barry has driven him in the years they have lived together through the length and breadth of this great State. During one long trip, indeed, SBam and his mate traveled, aimost steadily, for four months, averaging some thirty miles a day, a rate of traveling that would have taken them to New York City with some hundreds of miles to spare. His traveling days are about over now. There are no more long journeys for him. Mr. Barry bas a “model ranch’’ of some fifteen acres where the princ pal crop is herbs. Sage and savory thyme and mar- joram grow there in long rows between the fruit trees. To harrow and cultivate these, and afterward to pull big, fragrant loads of the crop, dried and baled, are the principal work of Sam’s life now, and he enjoys the exercise. In fact,if ‘‘the youn, borse’” is taken and Sam is left behin the big fellow will stand and whimper like a baby, coming to Miss Barry for com- 3’3" in the slight that has been put upon m. Near the house grow great blackheart cherry trees, p'anted a quarter century ago, and now loaded with fruit. I know no more delightful spot on a hot sum- mer day than the north side of a big cherry tree in the height of the fruit sea- son. The great trees cast a grateful shade; a soft breeze steals in between the long rows. Overhead the birds make blithe music the while they sample an occasional cherry. Through the range of low-hung branches you catch a glimpse of distant hills, and above all arches the wonderful California sky, blue with that perfect blue that will not be coaxed to the palette of even our cunningest painter. Here, staked wher- he can graze upon the crisp green feed, old Sam spends much of his time mildly editating upon old times and past experiences. I left him standing thus, and shall love jto think of him living out his peaceful last days cared for and loved by the master who, in all these years, has never let him learn what a blow means. Miss RussELL. HOW MR, ST, CLAIR EVADED THE LAV, Makes His Escape Through Captain Dickinson’s Connivance. Came Into This Port as First Mate of the Big Four- Mast Ship. Attacked the Sailor on the High Seas and Is Now Wanted by Fed- eral Authorities, When Captain Dickinson of the ship Aryan, which sailea Thursday for New York, reac.es that port it is possible he may be asked to explain why he took Mate St. Clair away against the wish of the Federal authorities. First Mate St Clair, who is aboard as a stowaway, may also find himeelf in trouble. The Aryan reacbed this port from New | York some weeks ago witha general cargo. While on the high seas First Mate St. Clair attacked Thomas Olsen, one of the sailors, breaking tue latter's jaw. What led up to the trouble is not known, but in any event Olsen declares that it was un- provoked. The injured sailor declared his intention of having the mate arrested as soon as the ship reached this port. Hardly had the Aryan tied up before St. Clair appeared before the United States Shipping Commissioner and demanded his pay. Heexplained that the crew would be up later for the money due them. The next day Olsen swore to a complaint charging St. Clair with assault on the high seas. The Commissioner was notified to arrest the mate when he should call for his wages. But 8t. Clair had received his money, and from then until Thursday all trace of him was lost. All the prominent sailor boarding-houses were closely watched, as was also the ship. On Monday the Aryan cleared and Thursday sailed for New York, as already stated. When the list of the crew was filed with the Shipving Commissioner the name of B, Melville appeared as first mate in place of 8t. Clair. The officers had an idea, however, that a trick of some sort was being played on them, but just what it was they could not determine. When the Aryan left Thursday a hasty search of the vessel was made, in the hope that Si. Clair would be found. In this they were unsuccessful. As the ship was being towed out beyond the heads the officers kept sight of her by walking along the bay shore. Out to the Cliff House they went and there waited developments, When the tug returned she was imme- diately boarded, and Melville, who haa shipped as first mate, was found. He con- fessed that St. Clair was on the Aryan, but denied that he was a party to the fraud. The officers admit that they were very cleverly outwitted by Captain Dickinson, but they propose to get back al him by causing his arrest in New York. The charge will be aiding an offender against the Government to escape. Just what, if anything, will be done to Melville, who nelped to carry the scheme through, has not yet been decided. Just how St. Clair got aboard the Aryan is not known, but the presumption is that he was smuggled on at night. CHICAGO PERIL! Mrs. Dearborn—I find it doesn’t pay to hurry when you are shopping.
