SPORTING GOSSIP.
It must be à matter for sincere regret to all ers of manly sports that the series of interna- tional ranning matches arranged between the ❤amateur champions of England and America should-like so many other international trials of strength and skill-have ended in a deplorable fiasce. Mr. W. G. George of Worcester, and Mr. L. E. Myers of New York have towered so high above all their compeers that the settle ment of the question of superiority between the paff was anticipated in the athletic world with an extraordinary amount of interest. The Amer ican's performances from a quarter of a mile up
to a thousand yards eclipse all previous amateur records, whilst from a mile upwards George has not only proved invincible, but has easily wiped out the splendid records made by Walter Slade, Gibb, and other long distance champions. That George was anxious to selile the knotty question with the Manhattan Club representa- tive as to which was the better man, is evidenced by the readiness with which he crossed the At lantic to meet the Yankee on his own ground, and the willingness he displayed in leaving all the arrangements for the matches in the hands of his rival's supporters.

Myers is undoubtedly a fast runner; but his shady conduct in this international contest, and one or two previous matches, throws more than a shade of suspicion on his bond fides as a sportsman and a gentleman. Three separ ate matches were arranged between George
