DO YOU LOVE ATHLETICS?
If So, Read what One of tho Leading
American Athletes Has to Say,

III SO, Read What One of tho Leading
American Athletes Has to- Say,
BosToN, June 3.-"America leads the
world in oil athletic sports and New Eng
land leads America"
The above remark, made by the president
of ono of our New England colleges upon
Pettitt's recent victory, is true. There
never was an age, oven in classical times,
when so much attention was given to, and
enthusiasm displayed about athletics as at
the present time Mon, women and chill
dren are enthusiastic over them. People Of
all ages and both sexes play lawn tennis ut-
| til they are wearied; pull row boats until
they arc fatigued and applaud trained
athletes in base ball and other games until
they are exhausted 1t has become a craze
There is no doubt that whon properly
done, exercise is beneficial, but did it ever
occur to the athletic enthusiast, that all
games and contests demand a tremendous
expenditure of nerve, muscle and brain
force; Why should people be tired or OK
hausted, if the brain. nerve and muscles
were not tagged? Every movement of the
body eXhausts, and violent excrtiou eX-
hausts tremendously. All persons who in
dulge in any form of athletic exercises,
should, must exercise the greatest care.
The above remarks we're cccasoned by a
recent interesting talk with Mr.. George
Wright, of the we'll known firm OF Wright
q Ditson dealers in athletic supplies, $50
| Washington street.
There is no man in America better known
or who has contributed more to the cause
of true athletics than Mr.. Wright For
| years he was known rs the "King OF Base
Ball Players and even to-day he has few
equals in all that goes to make up good
physique and manhood. In the course Of
his remarks he said:
During the past spring did not feel in
| the best health do not mean to say that
this is strange, because most people, during
the past season, have been out Of sorts but

That is what Paines Celery Compound did

The experience of Mr. Wright furnishes
an exceedingly valuable lesson and eSpec-
tally to all New Englanders II shows that
no matter how good the constitution and
how perfect the health, there are times
when WEAKNESS overwork and exhaustion,
demand that nature must have assistance.

An Unknown Miscrennt Wrecks an Excur-
sion Tram Near Pittsburgh-Several Per-
sons Killed.
PITTSBURGH. Pa, Aug. 16-An at
tempt was made last night to wreck an
Atlantic City excursion train on the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad twenty miles
from this city, where the road runs
along the Youghiogheny river, thirty
feet above the water. The result was
the almost total demolition of the en-
CINE and the death Of two engineers and
a tramp The passengers escaped with
81 ght cuts and bruiSaS The killed
were:
Yankee Sullivan, of Pittsburgh, one
of the oldest engineers or the road.
Daniel Goodwin. engineer of the east
ern division, who was riding in the cab.
Unknown man, supposed to be
tramp, riding between the tender and
baggage car.
Fireman King was painfully but not
dangerously injured.
The train, which consisted of six
sleepers and baggage car. was crowd
ed with eXcursionists bound for the sea-
shore. 1t was late in getting away from
the city. and was proceeding at rapid
pace to make up lost time. Near Os-
ceola station, an obstruction was en-
countered. There was terrific crash,
and the engine was thrown over the
embankment The cars ran along on
the rails for fifty feet and then fell over
on the west bound tracks, towards the
hillside.
The engine was completely wrecked.
Sullivan, Goodwin and the tramp were
crushed beneath the timbers and were
killed almost instantly. King, the fire.
man, was thrown into tree thirty feet
away.
The sleepers were not badly dam
aged. The passengers were badly
frightened.
Four ties had been placed securely
between and on the rails. The work of
the wreckers was frustrated by the cars
falling on the west-bound track. If
they had followed the engine and gone
over the embankment into the river,
the loss of life would have been fright
full.
The most plausible theory advanced
as to the motive of the wreckers is that
they intended to wreck high class
freight train which usually precedes
the Pacific express. Last night, how
ever, the first section of the express
train was sent out ahead of the freight
train
