AMONG THE ATHLETES
An Athletic CIash in Boo,op.

At the meeting Of the Board Of Manage
ment Of the Amateur Athletic Union held at
the Astor House on Nov 23. several important
measures were passed and the Secretary's re-
port Of the meeting includes the following:
The applications of the Deerfoot Harriers Of Brooklyn
and the Union Athletic Club Of Boston. Masa. for
privilege of holding tournaments under A. 4. q. rules
read and the Secretary authorized to notify
said clubs that the Board OF Management Of the A.
decline to sanction the proposed boxing tournaments
and that eluba members Of the A. u, ADVISED not
70 allow their athletes 10 enter.
Notwithstanding the rejection OF their appli-
cation. 1t seems that the Union Athletic Club Of
Boston are going on with the arrangements for
their boxing tournament on Dee. a. and are
issuing circulars and letters to the athletes
and press. claiming that the ruling Of the ANA
teur Athletic Union does not 20 into effect until
Jan. l, and 30 does not Interfere with the
Union Clubs entries. While the new laws OF
the Amateur Athletic Union do not 60 into
effect until Jan. l. that does not alter the mean
ing Of the above.quoted paragraph. which OK

legit mate athletic clubs 1t was getting to be
common practice for one or tYoIndividuals,
" with an eye on the turnstile," to start iicti-
ments and games under A. A. U. rules. and
thus draw entries away from the amateur
clubs. This did not strike the Board of Man
agement as being the true spirit OF amateur
ism, and consequently all clubs must register
their games with the Secretary Of the Union

Wool Affected by storage.

A wool dealer and farmer says: Being
in the wool trade and also connected with
farming interests, am aware that the
storage of wool is a question frequently
discussed, but I have not noticed that
one important point, viz, the effect of
long storage on wool has been considered.
IF wool, like butcher meat, could be
bought as required, there is no doubt
that washing would be loss. Why?
The yolk supplies SO much potash that
there is a great saving of soap in scour-
ing and the yarn is much softer. On the
other hand, as the years supply has to
be laid up somewhere, you must consider
how lnwashed wool will stand the long
keep. My experience is that the color
suffers and the wool becomes unfit fol
white purposes; also, that the potash has
such an effect on the structure of the
fiber that it gets quite brittle and does
not comb well.
The Monmouth inquirer., 1889-04-04

Asonrce of considerable speculation and
conjecture by sewing machine men in
general is: Why is it that the canvassers
selling New Davis Machines can 90 ont
and sell from five to seven and even more
machines per week, while the canvassers
for other machines considers himself do
ing well when he accomplishes the sale of
two or three machines per week? This is
very easily answered. 1t is not because
the Davis is sold lower than any other. for
the price is from five to ten dollars HIGHER
than that of any other machine in the
market; but it is becauseit possesses many
advantages over any other, prominent
among them being the vertical feed, an i'm
provement which in point of superiority
no other machine can approach. By the
improvement all kinds of sewing even the
most difficult trimming, is made in the
most perfect mannerwithout the necessity
OF ever basting. Its attachments are SO
simple, many of them working automatic
ally, that any lady possessing even but a
slight knowledge of running machine,
can execute every variety of household
sewing upon the Davis with an ease and
rapldlty impossible with any other ma
chine.
