Jahn, the author of this salutary
physical revolution, was born In
the Prussian province Of Ltegnitz,
bis father being Lutheran cler-
gyman. He entered the Prusslan
army as q private, and rose to q
Colonelcy during the wars with
the First Napoleon. He found
that no fresh troops were able to
bear the fatigues and privations OF
campaigning, and after the war
urged upon the government that
gymnastics should be introduced
both into the army and the schools.
His suggestions were complied
with, and he was appointed gener-
al inspector of gymnastic classes.
After few years he founded the
first Turner society, of youths con-
nected with neither the army nor
schools, and others quickly arose
| In various parts of Germany. In
IS4s Jahn was arrested for being
implicated in the republican upris.
ing of that period, and imprisoned
for two years In the fortress of
Spandau. On his liberation the
government granted him pen.
sion In consideration of the value
his introduction of gymnastics had
been to the nation, but he enjoyed
1t only year. He died in 1851
aged 70.
| 1t is pleasant TO know that in the
United States, OF late years, much
attention Is given to physical cul
ture. Every city of any size hai
one or more gymnasiums. Oul
door sports are becoming popular
ized. Cricket, baseball, rowing
horseback riding and walking ar
universally resorted to by person
who before resigned themselves t.
the inertuess born of sedentar,
pursuits. Even our girls are beinl

isthenics at our leading schools an
colleges. The result Is apparent il
more robust physiques. The pic
ture Dickens drew, forty years ago
Of the Jefferson Bricks and atten
uated and diaphanous women @
this country would now bo ridicu
lously out of place. AS a peopl
we have adopted the old Lati
maxim Of q "sound mind is soun

gratifying. If we make as mucl

pains were taken by the Democrat Is
to prevent the intimidation of
voters. 1t all cam e from the Repub.
lican side.
Question-What was the course
Of the Board in regard to ex-parte
afiidavits?
Answer-They first decided not
to receive such, but afterwards
changed their opinion and received
ex-parte affidavits from the Repub-
lican side of the house and then
again, when Democratic affidavits
were sent in, they changed their
ruling and refused to receive them.
1t was after the 23d of November
before we had any opportunity to
receive protests, when we
handed in large bundles of ex. parte
affidavits. The Board refused to
receive them and said the Witness
ca should be present; and, on pro-
ducing q large number of witness.

OF them. This put the Democrats TO

there is a large increase over last
year. The grain is larger and
plumper than known for years and
will average from 81 to SO pounds
to the bushel. There has been an
increased acreage, which more
than offsets the average decrease In
the yield of bushels to the acre.
This increase, together with an in.
crease in weight, will give not less
than 10 per cent. more bushels than
any previous year.
