But not until Vast night did thoy know anything about his "sprinting" abil ities. It came about In this way. HrucM was intending to go home last night with Fred Pratt and John Ben der on the Norfolk passeuger. He stood at the station talking with his brother till the train pulled down past the switch. He thought It wonld lok to the station again, lint it didn't, and liruco gavo chase. It was a pretty race.
