With all bis triumphs on tbe cinder jinth and be bas Von enough nips and medals and trophies to fill a cup boardbe Is a modest ebnp who does not care to gabble about his own achlewmenta. When be talked otxuit feis chances In tbe Marathon tiefore he left the Voted Ktates young Hayes aid to hla friends In the store: I know to a lmtith bos- far I ran run and how fust. I Intend to go Tight out with tbe pacemakers, kwp at their heels until I am ready to fin lab and then go In and win. I am not afraid of any of them, but I ex pect out own boys to make It hot for ma. Long) mot? I'll liet you the In dian crumples up liefore lie goes twen ty tnQes. Tom Ixmgtioat Is like a prtse fighter who has seen hla liest days, and I dont liellerc he will have enough la him to go tbe distance." Tbe actual running of the Marathon prored how accurately young Hayes bad estimated bis own ability and the strength of bis competitors. Long boat, tbe Indian, gave up liefore the twenty mile mark, and, except for the Italian and tbe South African, It was the Americans who gave Jock nayes the stalest trial. He run as tie said be would, up with the pacemakers un til be got ready to let them bo his heels, and then be sprinted on and won, as be told bis friends be could. Hayes went to work at the depart meet, store when be was seventeen yKre old as a messenger and odd ib b07. He wasnt nil muscles snd legs, so be worked his way up to tbe Job ct assistant in tbe superintendent's office at a salary of $20 a week. When o gets back to the big store Its proprietor will offer blm the chance of making H,W or $5.tT0 a year as bsad of tbe sporting goods dejiartment. More than that, be is going to give Sam a big reception. Last spring Hayes trained on a qaarter mile track on top of tbe department Pttirii. Xlost of his train SnjT bad to be -dune at night, since T& Job kept him busy every day but StmSay. In a letter nayes wrote to one of bis friends In tbe store and re celved tbe other day he said: There won't be any excuse If we dont win. As for juyself, I can still cat, sleep and run Just as well as I Ad on the other side," Hayes Is unmarried and lives at 240 Bast Fifty-fifth street. Hayes is the first American to fig ure prominently in a Marathon held abroad. The event at tbe first Olxm- plc revival In Athens was 'won by a Greek, Lones, who covered the orig inal course from the Tillage of Mara thon to the stadium at Athens In 2 hours liS tnluutes 20 seconds. At the Paris Olympiad uf 1000 the Marathon was won by Teato, a "Frenchman, with A, U Newton of the New Turk Athletic club a good second. Toato's time was 2 hours W minutes. In the , St Louis Olympiad of 1POJ all tbe places were won by Americans, there being no foreign opposition worth while. The winner, T. J. nicks of Boston, won oxer a wretched course In tbe unavoidably slow time of S hours 28 minutes T3 seconds. Once Ingaln the1 event was held on tbe original course at Athens in UtOO. and, though tbe Americana made n ooi fight, first ilaee went to Slier ring of Canada, W. G. Frank or tbe Irlsh-Amerleuti Athletic club was third In. Slierrliis'H time was 2 hours SI minutes 223-5 seconds. Outside of some minor Maauthous, such as at Boston, St Louis and other plnei-s, this lirlngs tbe history of tbe ran; to the present. As a distance man anywhere from two to ten miles Hayes was slow und never figured In the front brigade. But be had plenty of stniulim, and whenever lis did run nny long din tance it was noticed that he finished fresh and in good hlmiK'. This led to the belief that be was cut out for n Marathon runner, und his friends ad vised blm in go for the Itoston race two yours itgo. He was duly entered by the fit Bartholomew's club, of which be wits n mcmlier from the lie ginning of his athletic, career.
