Athlntle sports. How few thoro nre
who partake la such thing; In the
days of ancient Greece the people made
their games and sports part of their
lives. In the old Olympian garni' the
young athletes of the nation would all
come together to contest (or tho prlz".
We can Imagine ourselves seated In the
amphiteatre. Tho place Is filled to'
overflowing. Thousands of people are
waiting for the rHces to begin. There
th contestants stand waiting. Look,
what masslvo forms. Muscles hard as
steel. The signal given, they start,
every muscle quivering, nostrils dis
tended. The onlookers urge them on
and then wait breathless as they near
the goal. The winner crowned with a
wreath of laurel leaves. What a shout
goes up from the croud.
In that day the eople paid more at
tention to the development of their
bodies than at present and produced
niHgnldeent specimens of the human
race. Dut to-day look ut the peculiar
foruiH of some of our oople. Young
folks should be encouraged to engage In
athletlio sM)rts, more than they aro.
In tne past few years rapid strides have
been made In this line and more people
are taking an Interest in athlutlcs. Pro
fessors of colleges are encouraging their
students to participate In athletic
sports. Even In Ileynoldavlllu wo have
teams of football and base ball.
As a modern nation the Americans
load tho world In athletlo sports and
games. Wo should continuo to encour
age this chlvalrlo and gallant spirit
when found to predominate In tho
youth, and the manhood of our country,
as our army, will continue to surprise
the world In the gigantic proportions of
Ita manhood and t he energy and alert
ness of Its peoplo generally.

The second month of school ha just
boon finished and the third month was
ueaered in with a little confusion, due
to the re-grading determined avion by
the directors. The changes Id the lo
cation of scholars will not necessarily
Imply promotions, although they may
be in rooms of higher number during
the rest of the .year. The requirements
of the board are being met, not by pro
motions, except in a few cases, but by
the wholesale shifting of trades from
one room to another. The teachers
sincerely hope that this condition will
not last long and that the regular ma
cblnery of the school system will be
very shortly running as smoothly as be
fore. Teachers as well as pupils will
experience some inconvenience in rear
ranging their work and adapting them
solves to the new conditions. Ia a few
instances the pupils and teachers will
be almost new to each other.
The Schuberts very successfully
ope aed the third annual lecture course
conducted under the auspices of the
Public Schools. All seemed thoroughly
satisfied with the rich quality of enter
tainment furnished by this Club of wide
spread reputation, and only wish the
remaining members will please so
thoroughly. The attendance last Fri
day evening was about 350.
, ' Millions Given Away,
It is certainly gratifying to the public
to know of one concern in the land who
are not afraid to be generous to the
needy and Buffering. The proprietors
of Dr. King's New Discovery for Con

en away over ten million bottles of this
great medicine ; and have the satisfac
tion of kndwlng it has absolutely cured
thousands of hopeless cases. Asthma,

headache. About a year ago I began

fHE NAMING OF JOHN BULL.
Or. Arltntlinnt tVn the Man Who
Thos llnbbed Mrent llrltaln.
Dr. John Arbnthnol, one of the many
royal physicians to whom the Bootou
elty of Aberdeen has giveu birth, was
the author of John Bull S boing. Al
most forgotten now by all but the
smdite, who remember him as the inti
uintn of Pope and Swift, Arhnthuct
christened tho British nation iu bnlk as
John Bnll in the pnfltical strife inoi-
dcmtnl to tho dismissal of tho Whig
ministry of 1710, when tbe able aud
avaricious Murlborougli saw tho begin
ning of tho decline of his brilliuut for
tunes.
"The History of John Bnll" was a
satire on the political events preceding
tbe treaty of Utrecht in 1713, written
by Arbuthnot. Iu 1704 he had been cre
ated physician extraordinary to tbe
queen iu recognition of his services in
saving tho life of Anne's bnsliand,
Prince George of Denmark. He had be
come tbe queen's medical attendant, a
position of no mean Importance at a
time when so much depended on the
succession to the crown, aud be was
closely iu touch with conrt lifo.
"For the better understanding of the
following history the render ooglit to
know that Bull in the mnlu was an
honest, plain dealing fellow, cbolcrio,
bold and of a very inconstant tomper.
He dreaded not old Lewis, either at
backsword, siuglo falchion or cudgel
play, hut thou he was very npt to quar
rel with his best friends, especially if
they pretended to govern him. If you
flattered him, you might lead him like
a child. John's temper depended very
much on theair; his spirits rose and fell
with bis weather glass.
"John was qnick and understood his
business very well, but no man alive
was more cnrolass iu looking into bis
aoennuts or more cheated by partners."

POWER IN OUR POWDER.

"Velocity and pressure," explained
the powilur mill superintendent, "are
the two main reqnlsites in proving pow
der. Tbe government is vesy specific in
its contrncts. It demands that when
fired under scrvioeconditionsintbe gun
for which it is intended powder must
give to the projectile a mnz.le velocity
of at least a certain number of feet per
second without prodnoing a pressure of
more than a certain number of tons to
the square, ineb. For modern guns the
vehicity required varies from 2,000 to
S, 800 feet in a second, and tbe pressure
is not allowed to exceed 10 tons to tha
sqnnre inch. In some of our guns of tbe

up in the powder charge is so tremen
dous as to be almost incredible. The
limit of energy upon the projectile can
not be estimated, so vast are tbe possi
bilities. "For example, 1 may cite the Ore
gon's IU inch rifles. Five hnndred and
Bfty pounds of powder in these guns
Impart to an 1, 100 pouud shot a velocity
of 2, 100 fbot per second, and the enorgy
of the projectile ia nearly 84,000 foot
tons. This power is suffloient tq lift
such a vessel as the Oregon eight feet
out of the water.
"Those screens between the cannon-,
and tbe broast works are eleotrio chrono
graphs 100 feet apart from each other'
and tho cannon, and they register the
time of tho projectile's flight with abso
lute noenrncy. "
