VIEWING THB WALKING CONTEST
AFTER IT ENDED.
Gossip About the Ciosm??of the Mitch???The Conte*t
B tween Small and Clay ton*-What Carter Hoi
to 8ay About Cheshire's Toul-He Po
et nee to Contest It-Eie??? Etc.
The gossip of the late walking match
coven man; incidents not treated in oar ac
count of Banda;.
It is agreed that such intense and pro
longed excitement was never witnessed
Atlanta as daring the last hour of this walk.
Such a crowd was never before brought
within walls in this city, and the interest was
Hterail; painful. As more than 3,000 people
sat or stood with .their e;es riveted on the
straining figures that swept round the track,
the scene was eimpl; indescribable.
For fall; fonr hoars Cheshire, Carter and
Bruffey ran together with hardl; a lap divid
ing them. In the lost hour Braffey by an
unlucky rest stiffened and dropped a few
laps to the rear. Then for one hour Carter
and Cheshire went exactly neck and neck.
The; were on the same lap and on the same
mile and the most of the time a yard stick
conld have covered them both. Each msn
strained his almost. At lesst lift; times
Carter staggered to the outside of the trsck,
hoping to pass Cheshire. Each time the
little gray man, hugging the inside of the
track skipped ahead and forced his rival
back to the rear. Each one of the trials
almost railed the roof with the wildest
cheers. Up to the last moment ot the race,
even to the last lap no man could tell how
the race wooldend.
A KOVEL WAY OF CLOS1KO THE RACE.
The judges decided earl; in the da; that
the "finish??? should be as follow-: "Precisely
at ten the bell in the judges??? stand shall tap.
Esch man shall then stop in his tracks, and
will be placed accordingly." Ur. Grad; was
not acquainted with tbu decision until 0:30,
but supposed each man would finish at the
string, on the stroke of the does. As the
judges' plan was clearly the best, be bad five
judges pot on the track at five minutes to
ten, fearing that Carter and Cheshire migbt
close so near each other that the judges could
not decide from the. stand who was
ahead. At three minutes to ten the judges
joined the men at the scorers stand, Mr.
Earn Stocking running abreast of Braffey,
.Mr. Brook Beckwith with Cheshire, Postmas
ter Wilson with Csrter. Councilman Cooper
with Small and Uajor Fitten with Clayton.
On the last four Ups Cheshire pulled ahead
of Carter on each lap, but each time the
green and red closed the gap and ran up to
the leader until the very last lap. Then
Cheshire palled ahead an Inch at a time un
til he was ten???fifteen???twenty???thirty-
forty ahead. Carter straggled bravely but
could not take np the lost space. As the
bell rang out, he stopped thirty feet this side
of the scorer???s stand, with Cheshire ten feet
beyond It, and staggering into Ur. Wilson???s
arms gasped out:
"Hold mel"
Frank Small, his devoted trainer, who had
practically ran the last ten miles with him,
picked him up in his own arms and started
on a run for the tents. The crowd closed
about them, but Small broke through them
carrying the exhansted walker with t
strength that seemed measureless to those
who saw It.
So ended the race; Cheshire winning by
About fifty feet in a race of 48 miles.
TBS CONTEST BETWEEN SMALL AND CLAYTON.
The contest between Small and Clayton
for fifth place was almost as close as the
fight for first place. In the 37 milea there
was bat 0 laps between thorn. Bath" of these
men timed tneir pace all day <o beat .'id miles,
believing that would win the race. They al
lowed tne other men to go ahead at first,
thinking they would break down. When
they found they had miscalculated it was
too late to take up the lost ground. They
were in better condition at the end of the
match than any of the men.
coaatcTtNa rruffey', score.
A correction is made by the scorers in the
record awarded to Brufiey. He should have
had 47 miles and 12 laps instead of 43 and 12
laps. He was not but 3 laps behind Cheshire
and 2J4 behind Csrter. Had he not stiffened
in hla last rest of three minutes when he
stopped to change shoes he would hare been
closer up.
rtrrTINO AN ELECTRIC BATTXBY IO A LEO.
Carter???s suffering the lost two hoars of the
race was excrutiating. His lex was cramped
three.times and required an electric battery
for 25 minutes before he could move il.
This lost him time and unstrung him very
mach. Dr. Coleman applied the battery,
and the effect was wonderful.
A FCOiX FOR CASTER AND BRUFFEY.
We have received the following note, which
weprint with pleasure:
Editors Constitution???I enclose yon (25
which I beg to subscribe to a purse for Mr.
Carter and Ur. Braffey for their game and
gal ant straggle on Saturday night. They
ought to have a routing purse, and! start the
bail with pleasure. For reasons which you
will appreciate, please withhold my name.
Yours.
We have received a subscription of (5 for
the tame purpose which was sent anony
mously.
LOOEINO THROUGH THE HIND HOOTS.
It is claimed by Carter???s friends that hi
really walked farther than Cheshire did, for
while the latter beat him fifty feet, he lost at
least one hundred feet In the last hour in
taking the outside of the track and trying to
pats Cheshire. Others claim that Carter???s
hair lost him the match???it being long and
thick and matting about bit head???and
others that his knee-breeches bagging about
the hips lost him the fifty feet by which he
was beaten.
On the other band, Cheshire's friends claim
that he bad a reserve even at the finish and
-could have pulled away from Carter even had
he been pressed harder.
As for Cheshire and Carter they are heartily
friendly about the matter. Carter says Ches
hire beat him fairly and in spite of all he
conld do, and Cheshire says that Carter gave
him all that he conld attend to. .It is doubt
ful if a closer or more evenly matched race
was ever ran for 48 miles on any track in the
world.
Kamedell had some fanny experiences.
After his wonderful ran early in the day he
was distressed. He called lux ???Liebig???s es
sence of beef" and drank It eagerly. A doctor
says that be took enough of it in one hoar to
sustain a man tor four weeks. Ed Mercer, his
trainer, s&itU.
???I do believe in my soul, I have poured the
juice of twenty Texas steers into him."
Ramsdell says it didn't matter to him
whether they put a thing on him or poured
it into him. Says he: ???They would jerk np
a bottle, and if my month happened to be
open they???d pour it in. If my mouth was
shut, they???d rab it in. I???m
satisfied I drank several differ
ent liniments that no man ever drank
before and that were intended for robbing
one with.???
A TALK WITH CARTER.
Mr. Csrter laid, in answer to a question as
to whether or not be wonld appeal from
Cheshire???s victory, "I shall not. Cheshire
won tha race fairly, and no man yields him
bis honors with heartier satisfaction than I
do. I did my very best to beat him, and I
couldn't do it, bnt I think be feels that be is
entitled to all be got. I would not taks the
first place if the judges were to give it to me,
and 1 have so cured to Mr. Grady.
"In taking this position I most not be un
derstood ss criticising Mr. Frank Small???s card.
He acted purely from hit devotion to my
friends and myself, and bad nothing in view
bnt my interests from first to last. No man
ever hods better or more nnselftsh and faith
ful trainer.???
Noras or the match.
Tha receipts from prizes were about
(400, and Mr. Howard and Mr.
White turned over $1,590 as gate
money, Mr. W. L. Smith $01 as reserved seats
money, and other incidentals running tho to
tal np to about $2,100. The walkers met this
morning and $1,500 was divided between
them.
Bruffey got the 8tewart baby-carriage and
the Globe cotton planter???the two things In
toe list for which he hasn???t the slightest use.
Charles Logan made the fastest mile in
eight minutes; and the fastest three miles in
27 minutes. He got up from a bed of sick
ness a week before the race, otherwise he
would have worried the winning man.
Every one of the boys walked
up three pair of steps
after hla money yesceiday morning, and all
went on duty at 12.
Bruffey rested only 29 minutes and Cheshire
53 minutes in the 12 hours.
OTHER MATCHES IN PSOSPECT,
Other matches will follow the one just
closed. A gentleman in the city is preparing
to offer $1,000 to the best 12 hour walker,150(
to the next best and $300 and $200 to the next
in order. This will be open to the state.
Mr. Cheshire hss also received several chal
lenges, and will probably respond when they
g et into shape. A gentleman offers $2 000 to
e divided in five-eights, one-fourth, one-
eight if Cheshire, Carter and Bruf-
fey will walk a 12 hour???s matob within
GO days. This match will probably be made
np.
DE. COLEMAN S WOES
Much of the success of the match was due
to the untiring efforts of Dr. G. Douglass
Coleman, the distinguished medical electri
cian who hss lately located in Atlanta. Dr.
Coleman is well-informed on sporting affairs,
and casually mentioned tha fact wnen the
match was in its inception. He was invited
to participate in the arrangement and con
sented. He then entered earnestly into the
work and ??? superintended the. construc
tion of the model track and gave the boys
many valuably points. On the day ot the
contest hla labors were unremitting and all
the boys were cheered by bis words of en
courngement, and in the tents all the aching
legs were soothed by bis healing touches.
He deserves and has their hearty thanks.
The doctor is a permanent citizen now and
is doing a good and increasing practice.
The walkers desire also to especially thank
Mr. McDaniel, the engineer wbo laid oat the
track and other plans and did much to aid
the enterprise.
THANKS TO THOSE Wno HELPED.
The reporters desire to return thanks to
the physicians, the scorers sad the judges
and to all others who in any way contribu
ted to tho success of their entertainment.
They will net forget the numerous kindness
es that were shown thorn.
A SPECIMEN SILL.
The boys hod some pretty tough bills pre
sented. A negro boy wbo waited around in
the tent presented the following statement
yesterday:
"2 Aciing os Gen trayner ot the Repoters

The mornlcg wss partially dandy, just enough

have contemplated a forsy upon them, and had
gone to other parts of the stream to avoid an un
pleasant meeting with a Sabbath school. So tha

few perhaps that were mado on dry land. The
