SEEN IN THUYMNASHl
Physical Culture Nowadays Is a Very
- Practical Thing.
THE OLD vAY AXD THE NEW
Instructor and His Machines Can Bo Com
pared, with tho Physician and a
Drug Store-How They Do
It In Scranton.
There was a time when amateur ath
letes aspired to excel in some especial
feats of strength or agility, and when
athleUo clubs aimed to train its mem
bers In only a few
branches of sport
such as running,
Jumping, lifting
and boxing. Hut l'i
the last few years
there has been as
great a revolution
In athletics as in
the iron Industry,
printing, art or
sciences. The old
Idea of perfecting a
man In some par
ticular line of ath
letic work 'has been
abandoned. Nowa
days tine fundamental principle of
physical culture Is to make a man's
body as perfect as possible; this idn.i
has gained such favor among nthilotlu
cilubs throughout the country that the
old principles exit only In name.
Probably no organization In exist
ence today 'has done more to eneounage
the new order of gymnastics than the
Young Men's Christian association, and
In Scranton particularly during the last
few years has the association done a
world of good toward making men
strong and well. There are in the oily
several hundred professional and busi
ness men and clerks who owe their
robust frames to the training they re
ceived in the Scranton "gym." Mainy
of them still visit the gymnasium and
others continue to exerolse at home,
using the information gleaned In earlier
years from the Young Men's Christian
association physical director. In view
of the extensive work done In this line
by the association, some facts regard
lng the gymnasium and Its work may
prove Interesting.
Whut Physical Culture Docs,
The physical director, R. L. Weston,
is a good Illustration of what body
building will do for one. He is S2 years
of age and for three years has had
charge of the Scranton
gymnasium. When 20
years of age his chest
measured only 33 Inches
and he was afflicted with
lung trouble. XTpon the
advice of a Boston phy
sloiain he took courses In
Boston and Springfield
tuid eventually became
an assistant director in
the Y'oung Men's Chris
Han association gym
nasium of the first
named city. He later be-
oame physical director in Columbus, O.,
and St. Paul, Minn., and came from the
latter city to Scranton, where he Is
well known as one of the most compe
tent physical .Instructors in this part
of the country
The old Idea of a gymnastic Instructor
made him a man of brawn and muscle
and little else. Today he must know
much of symmetry and grace and the
best methods to bring such conditions
about. Physical Director Weston bears
the same relation to the gymnasium
that a Scranton physician does to a
drug store. In the gymnasium are
machines and appliances to Increase
the girth of the chest, lift the drooping
shoulders, straighten the back and
make vigorous and strong any special
pnrt of the body which is out of pro
portion.
One Practical Feature.
Each applicant for admission Is sub
jected to an examination and measure
ment, and whatever kind of exercise he
needs Is prescribed
for him. Like the
diagnosis, . treat
ment and result of
a physician's at
tpnuance, he re
ceives a tabulated
measurement of
body, limbs, chest,
etc., and Is given a
prescription which
will bring about a
better bodily pro
portion. The ore-
scrlptlon consists of certain exercises
with various appliances and machines
in the gymnnslum. A chart is furnished
him showing what the result should be.
and after the exercises have been ap
plied a certain number of months or
weeks another measurement Is taken
showing the actual results. It Is dif
ficult to conceive what more practical
method could be followed.
The purpose of the gymnasium, how
ever. Is not to put a boy or man through
a grinding and unonjoyablo "course of
sprouts. The large hall contains all
manner of apparatus and a member Is
privileged to amuse himself as he
pleases; he Is simply requested to fol
low the course of treatment prescribed
for certain hours and In a certain man
ner. At other times he may participate
in the many games constantly In pro
gress, or mnke use of any of the gym
nasium exercises.
Variety of Classos,
The extent of the Increase In member
ship and Interest Is shown In the fact
that the attendance Is at present three
times greater than three years ago.
There are several dlslnct classes made
up of business
men, boys and
young .men,
each having
special horn's
and days set
aside. Then
there Is a class
especially for
the young men
and boys who
are members
of the associa
tion's educational department. All
these, together with several special
classes, give an Idea of what the gym
naslum department Is doing. The re
sults can be best observed on any Sat
urday night when the spacious hall Is
teeming with the exercising, feats and
enjoyment of many members, Inter
mingled without respect to creed, age
or nationality,
Not the least Interesting feature of
the gymnasium are the baths and
dressing rooms.. They are equipped
with modem appliances for hot of cold,
douche, spray, needle, shower, hand or
tub baths, and are In use Constantly,
It Is no uncommon sight to see traveling
men. actors and others from abroad
enjoying the luxury of the bath or
making use of the gymnasium. Tho
broad scope of the association and the
beauty of Its purpose Is found In the
fact that any member by showing his
card can enjoy -the association privi
leges In any part of the world,
yiif
After so little has been said In limited
space of only one corner of the benefits
of this grand organization, an inference
may be had of its general good and Its
worthiness of support and Investiga
tion. MR. HART'S LATEST PLAY.
It Received a Warm Welcome at Academy
of Muslo Last Night.
'O'Neill, Washington, D. C," Dan
L. Hart's latest play, was received with
much favor at the Academy of Music
last night. It Is .the best bit of writing
for the stage that Mr. Hart has done.
and gives promise of even better plays
In ithe future.
Tho first act is a .trifle slow with pos
sibly two much philosophical soliloquiz
ing to suit the average theater goer.
There Is more action In the second net,
up ito. The third and last act is also
very strong and it Is seen that the slow
first act was simply a trick of the play
writer to have the Interest and action
progress as the plot was unravelled.
Into the play Mr. Hart has put lines
that Bhow his versatility and rich vein
of humor. One 'moment pathos causes
the unbidden tear to well up In the- eye
and then quick and sudden comes the
shaft of wit or saMre, the apt repartee
or odd turn of a phrase that immediate
ly affects the risibilities.
Mr. Hart is fortunate In having the
hero of his pluy Robert O'Neill, a
Washington inventor, assumed by Dan
iel Sully, whose characterization is
marked by naturalness and fervor. The
remainder of the cast is not up to Mr.
Sully's standard, and Mr. Hart's play
suffered In consequence.
At 'the close of 'the second act Mr.
Sully was called before the curtain. He
said that Mr. Hart had written a very
pretty .play; the best he had ever had.
The day was coming, he said, when Mr.
Hunt would write a great play that
would give rank among American dra
matic authors.
Then there was an enthusiastic call
for the author, who was in the audi
ence, nnd In response Mr. Hart ap
peared before the footlights und made
a very happy speech. He said that lie
wrote the play .to fit Mr. Sully, who, off
the stage, was the same wholesouled
gentleman that Uobent O'Neill is repre
sented to be. All his life he had a
wild ambition to write an Irish drama
that would not revel In red whiskers,
clay pipes, and lordly villains. He had
endeavored in "O'Neill, Washington,
D. C." to glveithe Irishman of the fire
side, not the John Kernell of the gut
ter. The play will be produced tonight and
tomorrow night at Mr. Hart's home,
Wilkes-Barre.
A LP E RM AX i'oisT RE V E RSK D.
lie Should Have Accepted Proof of Prior
Conviction When the Phelps Case Was
Heard.
Afflen hleairlng iargument.1 for and
against the reversal of the Judgment of
Alderman Post In the case of the com
monwealth against Druggist John H.
Phelps, Judge Edwards handed down
an opinion yeHterday morning revers
ing the ruling of the alderman.
On Sunday, Ma.y 20, Druggist Phelps
had his place of business open and
transacted worldly sales in violation of
the laws of Pennsylvania under the act
of April 22, 17H4. At the Instance of
Rev. F. A. Dony Mr. Phelps was
brought before Alderman Post and
fined t and costs. At the hearing an
offer was made to prove that Mr.
Phelps had already appeared before
Alderman Fltzslmmons and lodged in
formation against himself, paying the
fine.
Alderman Post refused to accept the
transcript from the docket of Alderman
Fltzslmmons as a proof of prior con
viction. This is one reason why Judge
Edwards ordered Judgment reversed,
another reason is that the information
and warrant in the proceedings before
Alderman Post did not specify that the
offense was committed in Lackawanna
county. On these two grounds Judge
Edwards ordered the proceedings re
versed. WANTED TO MURDER.
George Crcshel Had Desperate Designs
on Ills Wife.
George Creshel, a Hungarian, caused
considerable commotion on , Ninth
street Sunday evening ty threatening
to kill his wife. Lieutenant Williams
was called and Creshel ran to a house
and barricaded fit against the ollleer,
who was compelled to break In the
door.
When arrested the prisoner was diffi

had to be used in taming him. He was
sentenced to "thirty days imprisonment

ation, of food.
The brain worker, she said, is con

bakery, to pull a GO-pound batch of

championship of the state.
Visitors are unanimous in their favor
able comment on the display shown by
the Coal OH Johnny Soap company.
It represents an humble cottage sur
rounded by a picket fence and contains
an exhibit of the soap. The whole Is a
combination of novelty and American
ingenuity In the art of advertising.
Mrs. Belle Hunter, of Philadelphia, is
In charge of the exhibit, and by her
courtesy and affability has made her
self a general favorite.
One of the most practical and best
managed booths is that which displays
liensdorp's Royal Dutch cocoas and
chocolates. Every housewife under
stands that fats and starches in cocoas
and chocolates are Injurious. The pro
cess of eliminating these ingredients
nnd the composition of the cocoa bean
Is willingly explained at the booth,
which represents Stephen L. Bartlett.
the sole importer for the United States
and Canada, und Is In charge of II. O.

Two new scenes have been added to
the kelntoscopes, those mysterious ma

from the appearance of the plain oak
boxes. Aside from the amusement of
