The appearance of Daniel Long, of the
Trimount Athletic club of Boston, at sew
eral athletic games in the vicinity OF New
York recently has caused considerable com
ment concerning his wonderfully fine ply
sique. When p. DAWN, of Ireland, had
amateur athletic circles In Great Britain
talking of his wonderful powers seven or
eight years ago 1t was thought that no
one would be seen like him for many years.
DAWN was good at throwing weights, and
half a dozen years ago held the best rec
ords In the world for the running high n
broad jumps, 9 #. 2A in and 22 IT. 8 in.
respectively. The combination he dis
played of strength for weight throwing
and activity for jumping was spoken of as
wonderful. His height was 8 feet, and his
weight 1853 pounds in athletic clothes.
He was very wiry, but indications are
that Long will prove to be even a better
one, for although heis one incl shorter he is
has made records ut throwing weights
which DAWN never approached. Longs
jumping this spring has been phenomenal,
and at the running high jump at his club
games on July 4 he cleared 5 #. 11K in,
winning it and beating other good men
who have records close to o feet. The
ground was poor, which adds extra merit
to Longs performance. Although Long
Is n little more stockily built than DAWN
he has the same wiry siDews, and he and
DAWN would makea team unapproachable
by any other two athletes for all round
weight throwing and jumping now on the
Datn.

TALK OF THE ATHLETIC CLUBS.

Sidney Thomas, the celebrated English
amateur distance unner who sailed for
bis native shores several weeks ago, after
giving America a test of about eight
months - a place of residence, writes from
London that he has decided to stay in En-
gland, all reports to the contrary notwith-
standing.
The much talked of a-malgamation be
tween the Western Association Of Amateur
Athletes and the Amateur Athletic union
has made no visible Roadway lately, but it
Is predicted that at the annual meeting Of
the A A U. in September the subject will
be either not handled or will be in such
shape thai it will easily be put through.
Many athletic organizations throughout
the eastern part OF the United States are
having difficulty in arranging to suit all
the questions OF allowing Sunday practice
on their grounds. The western associA-
tions, as a rule, allow not only practice but
they also play games on Sunday, and the
huge majority Of eastern clubs permit free
use of their fields on that day.
Indications are that the Detroit Athletic
club will soon be TO the middle states about
what the Manhattan and New York Ath-
letic clubs are to the east. These two
prominent eastern organizations have the
huge majority Of good athletes in their vi
CAhAIg wealthy buch COAOEst anu the ItLTDlL
club has recently taken several we'll known
athletes from adjacent towns. The rivalry
between the many large athletic clubs in
the United States grows more intense as
the regular championship games in the
fall draw near, but the N. Y. A. c. and NJ.
A G. have a decided advantage, n be-
tween these two the former is a trihe
ahead.
At the recent eastern states champion
ship athletic games Daniel Long was on
the programme as representing two clubs
Boston Athletic association and Tri-
mount Athletic club, both Of Boston. He
represented only the latter at the indoor
championship games on April 10, and many
athletes are wondering why he was allowed
to represent the d. A. A. on June Is when
he had represented the Trimount A. C.
within three months. Il. K. Pritchard,
the champion running high jumper Of
America and Canada, was debarred from
competing on June 2s because he wished
to represent the Manhattan Athletic club,
and on April IL he had worn the colors OF
the Staten Island Athletic club. A rule of
the A A. U. Is that no athlete can repre-
sent one club within three months of wear
ing the colors Of another one. Its purpose
is 20 prevent the obnoxious changing Of
clubs by athletes.

who was in athletic clothes. Rich cleared
10 IT. 3 in, and Webster could not come
within an inch and a half of 1t, but he had
been competing during the afternoon and
was tired. The impromptu competition
gave Rich a reputation Immediately, and
soon after be was a member OF the Man
haitian Athletic club and wore the cherry
diamond" at the first indoor championship
games, where he competed in the standing
broad jump and three other events, but he
had to give way to the inyincible Samuel
Crook, of Rich's club.
With extra practice he seemed to develop
into a first rate 80 and 20 yard runner,
showing remarkable quickness in getting
into his stride after leaving his mark, and
also travelling along at a lively gait when
under full Roadway. He is so big that he
makes other competitors look almost like
pigmies, and his long bounding stride is
In great contrast with the style used by
the majority of others. He showed a fond
ness for jumping, and although he would
without doubt make a capital Splinter
should he continue practising, he prefers
to use what time he has for exercise in
growing expert at the various styles of
standing jumping. His practice has not
been wasted. for at the games of the Free
port Athletic association. Of Long Island,
held July 4. he broke the worlds amateur
record for the standing hop, step and
jump, doing % IT. IL in. The previous
record was 20 TT. 81 in, and it was made
In 1886.
In doing this game Rich toes a line.
standing on his right leg, and hops about 7
feet, measured to the heel. He then gives
a step. landing on his left leg, of about 10
feet, measured from heel to heel, and his
last effort is a jump which measures be-
tween 19 It. o in and 10 feet from heel to
heel. 1t is a game that needs considerable
strength in the legs, for there is no run
from which to derive impetus and the
movements are a plain muscular effort.
Very few athletes can do II well, although
there are many good performers ut the
running hop, step and jump, where over
40 feet is generally cleared. All OF Rich's
movements while making his recent rec
ord showed great strength, and as 1t is n
simple game to perform, requiring no epy
paratus, the majority of people can appre5
ciate Rieb's agurasb by trying it themselves.
The ground on which Rich competed was
composed mostly of cinder, which did not
hold him well while making the leaps, and
the probabilities are that he can d a few
inches to his present record IL given a good
piece of smooth clay or well rolled turf.

GENERAL ATHLETIC NEWS.

James A. st. John, president of the West
ern Association of Amateur Athletes, has
arranged a plan of amalgamation OF his
association with the Amateur Athletic
union which will be submitted at the lat
ter body's convention ut Washington on
Sept. ID. He has previously opposed ANAL
gamation on the ground that the W. A. A.
A. would lose It's identity, but his plan,
which very few oppose, Is that the dividing
of the country into districts, suck AS east
ern, western, middle and southern, will
give different associations now existing
and claiming Jurisdiction over such dis
tricts all the legislative power they want
witt simply a change in name.
The Ottawa Amateur Athletic club Of
Canada, which has not been organized
very long, is already showing considerable
strength and enterprise, and the athletes
In its ranks cannot say they are not
encouraged. On Sept. 18 the club will
hold big games on the Metropolitan
ground, consisting of n full programme Of
runs, jumps and weights, and II any mem
b1 shows high class form at these games
he will be sent one week later to the anna
teur championship games of Canada at
Montreal, where the best athletes In both
Canada and the United States will contend
for supremacy.
The Grand National Curling club of
America, which controls curling in the
United States, met in Toronto recently at
the invitation OF the -Four Brothers club,
the only Canadian club a member of 1t,
and arranged for playing some interna-
tional matches. the first to be played In
Toronto in January, 1892, and at least once
In the five years thereafter. New York
city was chosen as the place of meeting
next year. The following officers were
elected; President, Mai. John Paatis, Utica,

Albany, N. Y; secretary and treasurer,

The games of the Olympic Athletic
club, of San Francisco, Cal. on July
4 did not bring about the breaking
of a record, which many had thought
would surely happen. The record in
question is the running broad jump of
% #. 8 in, which Victor E Schifferstein,
of the olympics, has trained for some time
to beat. The form he has often displayed
shows that on a good day IL he is feeling
right he can alter this record, but he is OF
a highly nervous temperament and any
thing that goes wrong is apt to unfit him
for even a moderate performance. He did
not appear on the day in question and the
spectators were disappointed. Schifferstein,
however, will try again. for he says If he
attempts the feat often enough some day
he viii get there.

1t is very seldom that a man of large
and heavy physique excels in athletic
games requiring activity, put J. w. Rich,
whose picture is given here, is one OF the
few big active men who turn up occasion
ally. Rich is IS years old, @ #. 8 in. tall
and weighs 1s4 pounds in athletic clothes.
HIS chest measures 3eE inches, thigh %
inches and calf 1874 inche These figures
how that his development below the
waist is much greater proportionately than
that above the waist. He has always been
fond OF outdoor sports, but it was not until
the fall of 1SSs that he competed publicly
in athletic games. His specialties have
been any kind OF sprinting and jumping,
but he has a frame which. II developed in
the upper part, would probably enable him
to throw weights successfully.
he became directly interested in athlet-
