I suppose that wrestling is the oldest Of all
the athletic arts of our race. Long before men
boxed they 'buffeted." This, as far as we can
ascertain, consisted in two men standing before
each other with their arms down and first one
and then the other striking his opponent on
the face. head and neck with the fiat hand
Richard the ion-hearted is said to have been
buffeted in this way by Friar Tuck, one Of Robin
Hoods crew, and to have given blow
IN return that knocked that ecclesiastical
worthy completely out, to use the modern
sporting phrase. This ancient sport is not
quite yet extinct, by the way, occurring still
IN II few OF the country fairs in the by-ways of
England. 1t also reappears in some very cruel
but rare sports. One of these is when each of
two men gives the other the little finger of his
left hand to chew; another is when each OF
two gives his left arm for the other to burn
with lighted cigar. The former invariably
results in the manning of both parties and the
latter in the infection of CHASTITY burns that re-
quire weeks in being cured.

LA savats," or the French system, although
sedulously cultivated by the military and naval
authorities of that nation. is unpopular at
home and is utterly deEpised by our race. 1t
consists chiefly in kicking and striking and
leaves little for the great muscles of the body
to accomplish. The Cornish and Northumber
land allow hacking" which is a close cousin
OF the savate, and also o number of body
throws, which cannot be described in polits
language. Catch-as-catch-can explains itself
by its own name and is in vogue wherever our
race is. The restrictions are few but no
striking or kicking is allowed. There are no
restrictions as to the method Of grasping, pull
ing or throwing an antagonist, excepting those
which common decency dictates.
coLLAR-ANr-ELBow THE MOST SCIENTIFIC.
In measuring the values of the different
styles or schools Of wrestling unhesitatinply
give preference to the collar-and-elbow as be.
ing the most scientific and beautiful of them
all Next to it, and very close behind, is the
Graeco-Roman. This last school Of wrestling
does not belong to the Anglo-Saxon race at ali.
and has come into vogue in England and
America within the last twenty years. Its name
is a frightful misnomer, as it has nothing what
ever to do with the methods known in Greece
or Rome. 1t ought to be called Franco-Ger-
man, for, SO far as it be learned it is an old
German style of wrestling which was developed
and finished in France. 1t came into vogue in
England some fifteen years ago, and three
years afterward was brought over to this coun-
try, where it Immediately aroused the enthu-
siasm Of large audiences, and was adopted as
the fsvOrite school Of the athletic associations
of the country. Oddly enough. the greatest
masters of the Gr@co-Roman wrestling at the
present day are Americana.
oArCH-As-cArcH-cAN.
Next to collar-and-elbow and Greco-Roman
catch-as-catch-can is to be priced as q matter
Of scisnce. Below this come the various STYLES
known as Cornish, Northumberland, Scotch
and hip-and-shoulder. In this class muscu-
larity ranks higher than science, so that the
small man has little or no show when opposed
to one much larger than himself. Just below
this class comes the Japanese and Chinese
school Of wrestling. This has q rude science
Of its own and Is interesting on account of its
novelty 10 aceidentals. Below these, and very
tar below them, are the purring of Lancashire,
the hacking Of Cheshire, ''la savate" Of France
and the butting Of this country and the West
Indies.
