rHE NEW ~GYmNAsIum.

An Election for OAacers Last Night
Good Prospects Ahead for the DeTeI-
OPmenG of BIOOded Muscle In This
TOYn.
A gymnasium has been wanted, and
wanted bad in this town, for 10! many q
month. The walking is not good here;
boating is too much like pudding iron, on
account of the local current; swinging on
front gates is too sentimental and ener-
waiting, while mighty few young men, ex-
cept the owners of livery stables, can
afford horseback riding. Hence the fates
have decided that a number of gentlemen
in this city are to have a gymnasium. A
meeting for the purpose of ORGANIC alton
was held in Major Will Jackson's Office at
the Capitol last evening. On motion, Mr..
Jackson was nominated for President,
Vice-Preeldent, Secretary, Treasurer,
Board of Directors, Auditing Committee
and Genera Manager and was elected
without q dissenting vote. The club
then voted to limit the number
the initiation fee at a five dollar William.
Ten members were taken in last night
and applications filed for others. Boxing
gloves were ordered, a bag of sand, dumb
bells, Indian clubs and other peaceful
paraphernalia of that sort. It is expected
that the exercises will shortly commence
in earnest. The 1-NTELLIGBNCER reporters
we're sworn in, and any information about
the authorship of articles on the fourth
page will be answered in the course of a
couple of weeks in the highest style of the
art The ''manly art" is not dead yet. 1t
