football, the newspaper record OF injuries
received by players on the two foremost
college teams shows a larger number of
casualties from one match than prize rings
all over the country yield in a year.
There's danger of over civilization.
Through GENERALIZATION nations relapse
into barbarism. While Egyptians were
athletes they ruled the world: while Persi-
aus were athletes their arms were irresisti-
BILE; while GrecianS were athletes the
banded armies of the whole earth could not
overcome them: while the Romans were
athletes they were invincible. If l read
history agright these cases were all the
same: riches and luxury brought decay,
corruption, sloth, and then came the down

I think | can see some evidences of sloth.
There are scores of thousands of men in

Glove contests seem much more damaging
than they really are. People grow excl ted
and condemn them as brutal because tn ey
see the men striking each other. Their
eyes are not quick enough to see how few
of the blows land in the face, nor do they
know how hard it is to hurt the face of a
trained pugilist. OF course, at times men
are Knocked out, and | am now in po-
sition TO state that it does not hurt to be
knocked out. Nature has made express
provision for such emergencies. The
blow that inficts the injury dulls the
sensibilities, and the only really pain
full thing about being knocked out
is in the struggle to retain conscious
ness and keep up the night. Hyams, bruised
and bleeding, rose nine times from as many
knoclS-down blows in the last two rounds
of the fight with McAuliife, and was finally
knocked senseless. Yet the next day he
stared in surprise at man who asked him
if he was much injured. He contended that
McAulife had not hit him at all, and know
great many similar cases.

THE NEW CYCLING.

To the Editor Of THE HERALD.
The new cycling" is a term applied to
the new fashion Of using hollow rubber
tyres instead Of solid ones, those in which
the air is compressed being known as pneu-
matte tyres.
The latest sensation in this line in Brit
ain almosts takes the breth away from old
wheelmen everywhere. In the beginning
of the present season there the one mile
record stood at minutes, 81 As seconds for
the ordinary big wheel, and = minutes, "a
As seconds for the low wheel safety
On September O. w. c. Jones, at Pad
dington, rode mile in 2 minutes, 20 3-5
seconds, being at the rate of 25% miles an
hour. He is nineteen and QUE half years
old, and commenced racing in 1885. He
rode pneumatic tired Referee safety,
weighing twenty-four and one-half pounds
and geared to sixty-three inches.
On the 18th he beat the records for two.
three, four aud five miles, accomplishing
the five in IL minutes, 81 2-5 seconds, or %
seconds better Than the record.
At the present the raging novelties In the

Is only wave from the agitation begun in
the east few years ago, and will not last
long.
The opposition to glove contests comes
from those who have never witnessed
them, and who judge of them merely by
one or two facts or impressions.
Speaking as q man who has had some
experience, wish to say most emphatic
ally that boxing contests are not rough
sport. In the first place the contestants, if
properly trained, are in such fine physical
condition, so strong of limb, SO hard of flesh
that blows do not hurt or cause distress but
only invlgorate. Every man who has faced
a furious hailstorm and has felt the blood
mounting higher and higher and his spirits
rising till at last he has laughed as the hur-
ricane whirled him about knows something
of the exhilaration felt by those who face
each other in the ring and stand up under
showers Of blows.
The beauty of boxing is that it exercises
and brings into action every muscle in the
human body, from the tip OF the toe to the
end of the finger. The muscles of the legs,
the back, the arms, the neck, all have full
play, and the natural combative strategy of
each man is as fully developed as though
he was engaged in duel with swords.
Boxing is also the ultimate and final test
Vi plg SiCdl pONCI DIV It's
means men may reach as satisfactory q
conclusion as TO their physical merits as
can be reached in any manner short of
deadly combat. The practice of this mimic
war imparts hardihood, readiness of re
source, cheerfulness in adversely, and
above all, good temper. ! don't say that
no bad tempered man can ever become
first class pugIlist, but do say that such
cases are very rare. Hard knocks make
men good natured, and proficiency as a
pugilist gives nervous man self-confi :
dence that banishes irritation. The best
men do their fighting only in the ring
Outside of it they are as peaceable and
amlable as most other citizens, and are
deadly enemies of roughs and bar-room
terrors.
Our nineteenth century civilization can
not afford to quarrel with any form of
healthy, wholesome athletics, especially in
America where so large proportion of
young men ind their only exercise in
swinging pens and lifting ledgers. Half
an hours work with the gloves each day
would give to these young men the sure
foot, the strong arm, the hard muscle, the
clear eye and the steady brain of the ath-
lete.
Physical exercise means mental rest.
Boxing will cure:

Consumption IN its early stages),

This may seem like an extravagant state
ment, but do not mean to assert that it is
a good thing for man TO rise from sick
bed to box. mean to say that the ailments
named, and scores of others, spring from a
condition of the human system, which conld
not exist if proper care and exercise were
had. The Christian Scientists are very
