LONG, a student at Columbia University, is the fastest runner on top of earth. He proved his title last week on the old Guttenburg racetrack, when, under the sanction of the Amateur Athletic Union, he made a trial against the world’'s record of 47% seconds for 440 yards, made at Beacon Park, Boston, in 1886, by Wendel! Baker of Harvard. The trial was suggested by New York Athletic Club officlals after Long had beaten Lon Myers' cireular track record of 8% sec- onds for the distance. In the trial he was paced by W. D. Ed- wards of the Pastime Athletic Club, who was set ten yards ahead.” In the New York World was given the following de- scription of the trial: “Ready,” cried Starter Giannini. There was a half-second of intense expectancy, then the pistol flashed and the two run- ners bounded away like hunted stags. tride at once, his head held well up, his sturdy body slightly for- ward, his long legs flying in great leaps, the Knees thrown well up and reaching out as if to devour space. Edwards ran well, but before he had traveled one hun- dred yards Long had passed him as a lim- ited express passes a coal train. The intentfon was to have Edwards ‘carry” Long hLalf the distance, but the champion lost him so soon that he ran at st 120 yards alone. Then, at the 220- he picked up P. J. Walsh of York Athletic Club, who was to pace him through to the end. Long's stride seemed as hmrg, and high and free as ever, but he did not pass ‘Walsh. The pacemaker kept a half-stride in advance of the ehampion, and as he ran he kept saying: “Now, Maxey, let her go; it's only a few yards further. Let her go Maxey needed no encouragement. He dashed along with as beautiful a stride and as fine a judgment of distance as the athletic world ever saw. He went past the 350-yard mark in 36 2-5 seconds, com- ing within one-fifth of a second of the world’s record. Then he let out a few links of speed and traveled the next fifty vards as if his whole effort were made It was a marvelous burst of crowd yelled and shrieked. No such running had ever been seen since mankind learned to travel on two legs. Like an arrow or a builet sped tne cham- pion. He passed the 400-yard mark in 421-5 seconds. In other words, he ran his_seventh stretch of fifty yards uphill -5 seconds, a feat marvelous and un- paralleled. This great effort tired Long a _littla. His mouth opened, his head went back a trifle, and for a fraction of a second his legs seemed to waver. But it was on for a moment. He gathered himself in- and ran out the last forty yards seconds. He. was going strong as ever and he made half a dozen strides before he began to slow his speed.
