made on the side than in swimming the

the water.
SWIMMING on TIE BACK.
The swimmer should lie on his back as in
floating, and the legs be moved rs in forward
swimming. The hands may be used If de
sired in the same way as directed in swim
ming without employing the feet
TREADNG WATER
Everybody that can swim should be able
to tread water, for 1t is of great use in res
cuing drowning persona 1t is a perpendicu-
lar position Of the swimmer and is easy to
perform There are two ways. In the first
the hands are compressed against the hips
and the feet describe the usual circle; the
other consists in not contracting both legs at
the same time, but one after tho other, so
that while ono remains contracted the other
describes the circle In this motion the
thighs are placed in a distended position and
curved as II in a half sitting posture.
SPORTS IN THE WATER
The Float-One swimmer lies horizontally
on his back, the hands pressed close to the
body. The other swimmer takes hold of him
by the feet, and swimming, impels him for
ward, the first to remain motionless.
The Plank-A swimmer lies horizontally
as before, another takes hold of him by the
ankles, and pulls him ~obliquely into the
water, while he extends himself and impels
himself forward; thus both tho swimmers
drop rapidly one over the other.
P~icknback Spring-One swimmer treads
the water, the other swims near him behind,
places his hands upon the shoulders of tho
first, pressing him down, springing over him
as he does so. Now he treads water and tho
first performs the part Of the second, and
so on
The Shove-Two swimmers place them
selves horizontally on their backs, the legs
are strongly extended and tho soles of the
feet bear against each other; each impels for
ward with all his power, and he who sue
ceeds in pushing back the other is the con
queror.
The Wrestle-Two swimmers place them
selves opposite TO each other, tread water,
and hold their right hands in the air; the
question Is who shall first force his opponent
under the water by pressure. Cnly the head
Of the adversary is to DO touched, and That
only by pressure.

around u hotel all day without saying IA

always likes to be with the other players.
Conway was never known to fail to report
for duty, and believes in going to bed early
md eating regularly. Jim is a brother of
Pete Conway, now of the Detroits and
formerly of the Kansas Citys.
He is good enough for any league or asso-
citation club, and his services were in great
demand last year, but he promised to play in
Kansas City and repulsed all other advances.
In 1884 he began playing ball with the Solar
Tip club, of Philadelphia, but ended the
season with Brooklyn. He played n part of
the season of 1885 with the Athletics, but
made his first success with Atlanta in 1886
when he pitched the best game in the South
ern league and brought the pennant to At
lanta. He came with Gunson to Topeka in
1885, and his success there attracted the at
tention of managers all over the country.
But he decided to remain in a minor organ
ization another season and signed with the
Blues. He was born in the same town as the
receiving end Of the battery and is "a years
of age. 1t is the prayer of the fans" that
the charm of the mascot battery may work
again this year.

giants" being 8 feet IL inches high
and weighing 100 pounds. He is one of
the hardest hitters in tho team. His
first professional season was with the
Johnstown, Pm, team at short field in 1888.
In 1854 he began with the OH City team, and
was Transferred to the Cincinnati Unions.
In 1855 he was the strong card in the Atlanta
team, winner of the Southern championship,
and last season he played third base for the
St Paul team of the Northwestern league
During the preliminary season this year he
went south with the New York "coltn team
and his work at third base and with the stick
made a leading feature of the games and
gained him many admirers. The four games
mentioned comprise all the league work he
has ever done, and the record he made should
entitle him to more frequent opportunities
hereafter.

o 1t is no doubt the gracefulness
of these lines, coupled with a certain
unexpectedness In the form Of the pitcher,
which is four sided, with two broad and two
narrow divisions. On one of the broader
sides is an admirably modelled figure of For
tune, with delicate wings and a light scarf
blown about her, standing balance on a
ball. This is, to our thinking, a very pretty
application of an old symbol, and the way in
which 1t is carried out does the designer
credit On the other of the two broader sides
a panel is described by certain flowing lines
in which an inscription is to be engraved,
and room is left for tho winners names as
they shall follow in the course of years.
Some portions of the work are chased and
others mounted, and the execution Of the
whole does the highest honor to American
artists and American artisans.

Almost every person who has not learned

such a useful art that it should DO learned by
every one, and 1t Is a well known fact that no
one ever forgets how to swim after the stroke

The best thing for a learner to do, says The
Boston Budget, is to first acquire confidence
in the sustaining power of the water. One
of the best plans to do this is to walk into the
water until it reaches your armpits, then,
turning about, strike out for the shore, keep
ing your feet well up from the bottom
Rigid perseverance, in this course will in a
short time enable a youngster to feel himself

tina experienced by tho child who first feels
that he can walk from chair to chair. II the
