ARE YOU or GOOD SHGPEi
The Physical Development Of Men and WOnsn
Gauged in DOllarS-..COin for Perfect Fern.

Some years ago DR.. D. A. Sargent,
director Of the Hemenway gymnasium
at Harvard college, offered $1,000 in two
prizes to persons, male and female, whose
physical proportions should most nearly
approach perfect symmetry as indicated
by his anthropometric chart. The object
Of both chart and prizes was to stimulate
the youth Of both sexes with the laud-
able incentive to systematic and judicious
physical training with the view Of reach
ing as nearly as possible the normal
standard. The time allowed for the COM
petition was three years, and there have
been about 5000 competitors. The prizes
have been awarded as follows: Theprize
for the most perfect male development,
Henry Chester Jackson, Of Wiscassett,
Me-, senior Of the Bowdoin college and
prominent as an oarsman since entering
college. The prize for the most perfect
female development, Margaret Blanche
Best, Of Meadville, Pa, a member Of the
summer school Of physical training in
the gymnasium, and instructor in physi-
cal training at Allegheny college. Mr..
Jackson's nearest competitor was Will
lam Fay Garcelon, a graduate Of Best's
college and director Of the Forsyth school
gymnasium, Philadelphia. Miss Best's
closest rivals were two members Of the
Hemenway summer school. A sales
woman in a Boston store, teacher at
Wellesley Highlands, a pupil Of Laselle
Seminary, Auburndale, and two mem
bers Of the Birkely ladies' athletic club
Of New York, both daughters Of promi-
nent lawyers in that city. 1t is under
stood that similar prizes are to be offered
for the coming year.

HOW A CHEAMAI RODE.
Melancholy Ending Of q MOngOliaRs Attempt
10 Initiate His Master.

Mr.. ofner, the great fruit raiser Of
Walla Walla, unhitched his team in town
the other day, and he and his Chinaman
mounted horse apiece and gently struck
out for the ranch. Mr.. Offner, being a
professional bareback rider, carelessly
threw his leg over and rode sideways.
The Chinaman, who was about twenty
FIVE yards behind, noticed the adroit
move and 1t wasn't long before he, too,
rode sideways. The Mongolian felt big
in that elegant position and contemptu-
ously smiled at his countrymen as he
passed them riding down Main street.
All went well until Mr.. OfFner uncon-
sciously struck up q gentle trot. The
Chinaman's horse followed suit, and then
the fun commenced. The untutored
heathen bobbed from side to side, bold
ing on TO the name with one hand and
the tail with the other. That bland
smile Of his gave way TO troubled look,
and finally he came down with dull
thud, head first. He landed in about o
foot Of fine dust, which alone saved his
precious neck. The horse stopped, think
ing he jumped off to fix the crupper, for
the whole harness hung on one side and
in great disorder. Bystanders kindly
picked the Chinaman up and helped him
on again. He rode off clothespin fashion,
fully convinced that it won't pay to Be
too WdHd WdHa Journal.

Pertinent Proposition.

The police officer danced irantically
along the river bank, waving his hand
and shouting to a man in the stream.

"What is your name?" demanded the
officer sternly, taking out his note book.
'My name ees Emile Zola."
'The feller that writes them French
novels2"
"Ze same"
The policeman regarded him in silence
a moment, and then put his note book
back in his pocket.

finish your bath. The Lord knows you
need more washin' than other people. -

Adult. There is no authority for

Advance. The second Of this word
should be sounded broader than the a

as in father.
At the beginning Of this century words
In which this so-called intermediate a
occurs were generally pronounced with
the full. broad, Italian a, as in father,
which by the exquisites was not infre-
quently exaggerated. This Walker un-
dertook to change, and to that end
marked the a Of this class Of words
short, like the in and, man, at, etc.
The innovation met with only partial
success. Now, there is q general dis
position to unite in some intermediate
sound between the broad in father,
which is very rarely, and the short a in
can, which is very frequently heard in
this country. A few Of the words in
which this now receives this interme-
diate sound are: After, alas, answer,
ant, bask, basket, branch, brass, cask,
cast, chance, class, craft, dance, draft,
enchant, example, fast, flask, gasp,

mastiff, nasty, pass, past, pastor, plaster,

CHOTLWS GREAT UTKIOWT.
Curious Tradition Handed Down Among thC
Tribe.


A son Of the first missionary among the
ChoctOw Indians once related some Of the
primitive religious beliefs OF the tribe,
says the Kansas City Star, among them
q version Of q universal deluge, which,
it was stated, is one Of their Oldest legends.
Once, many years ago, it was night over
the whole world for long time, and the
whole country despaired. After waiting
many months a streak Of light was dis
covered far away in the north, and the
people rejoiced until they found to their
horror that II was an immense mountain
Of water that was rolling down toward
them. The flood killed every one but a
few families, who, somehow or other, had
been warned Of it, and, having built
themselves a raft, were rescued.
From their earliest traditions the peo-
pie have been taught to believe in a life
after they leave this world. They be-
lieve that the spirit, the moment 1t leaves
the body, is compelled to travel a long
distance to the west, until 1t arrives at an
immense chasm, at the bottom Of which
flows a very rapid, rocky and dangerous
stream. This terrible gorge, which Is
surrounded on every side by great noun
tains, the soul has to cross on a "long
and slippery pine log with the bark
peeled off," the only passage to the
"happy hunting grounds" which lie be-
yond the dangerous bridge. On the bank
Of the stream, just at the other end Of the
log, there always stand six persons. who
have reached the "happy hunting
grounds" and who throw sharp rocks at
whoever attempts to cross the treacher-
ons log the moment the middle of It
is reached. Those who have lived prop
erly, according to the Indian idea Of
morals, have no trouble in crossing the
log; the stones fall harmlessly from them,
and they reach the "happy hunting
grounds" where there is perpetual day,
without difficulty. There the trees are
ever green, the sky cloudless and the
breezes always gently blowing; there,
too, q continuous feast and dance are
going on; the people never grow old, but
live forever and revel in perpetual youth.
The wicked, when they attempt 10 cross
the dangerous bridge, can see the stones
which are thrown at them, and in trying
to avoid them they fall from the giddy
height into the awful gorge, thousands Of
feet below the slippery log, where a rush
ing, boiling stream is tumbling over the
great sharp rocks, filed with dead fish
and animals which are continually brought
around to the same place by the eddies
and wbirlpools. There all the trees are
dead, the waters infested by poisonous
snakes, toads and repulsive looking rep
tiles; the dead are ever hungry but hav-
ing nothing to eat, are always sick but
never die; there is no sun, and the
wicked are constantly climbing up by
thousands on the sides Of a high rock
from which they can overlook the beauti-
fol country Of the good hunting grounds,
the abode Of the happy, bnt can never
reach t."

Some years ago it was still the custom
in France to conduct condemned crimi-
nails through gaping crowds Of idle spec
tators to the public guiIlotine. On one
such occasion the unfortunate, seated
upon his coffin in the cart, heard would
be wit in the crowd remark to q COM
panion:
"Well, I'll bet that fellow don't feel
much like laughing"
The coarse attempt at q joke stung the
prisoner, and when he arrived at the
scafold he asked that the proceedings
be stayed a moment, as he had a con-
fessicn to make.
Although denied it at my trial, l
had accomplices in the crime for which
have been sentenced, and there" point
ing to the joker, ''is one Of them now"
Great excitement ensued and the party
designated was seized by the gendarmes
with no gentle hands. Out Of the con-
fusion somebody managed to drag order
and the wit was placed on the scafFold
beside his accuser.
Such fearful case Of abiect terror as
the joker presented was never witnessed
in that somber locality. After enjoying
his helpless fright for a few moments
the iated convict said to the official in
charge:
"He tried 10 make sport Of my suffer
ings, but the man is innocent. And as
soon as he seemed to be sure that It was
no laughing matter for me to he here, I
was curious to see how much such a
funny fellow would laugh under similar
circumstances himself"

N PREHISTORIC AGES.
Traces Of Mound Builders Recently Found in
Minnesota.

An important archaeological discovery
has Just been made on the shore Of Lake
Minnetonka. A mound was explored
and gave evidences Of prehistoric race
The mound is about thirty feet in dimame'
ter and rises seven feet above the sur
rounding land, and eighteen feet above
the land toward whose edge one side Of il
gently slopes. Near by is another mound
Of about the same size. On these moundi
grow large trees which are from l5O tC
200 years old. When one side Of this
mound was opened some very interesting
developments followed. Below the mound
was found earth very tightly tramped in,
almost like soft rock. By this means and
by building on a hill where drainage was
perfect, this ancient race sealed up theiI
graves almost hermetically. When this
hard dessicated earth was removed there
was found, at depth Of from three to six
feet, gravesof mound builders full Of their
bones and their crockery. A casual ex-
animation Of the bones showed from the
teeth and from the process by which the
muscles were once attached that these
men were huge and brawRy race. Huge
skulls were obtained, very different in
type from the modern skull. The bodies
were all buried with the heads toward
the mounds center. Evidently the
bodies were doubled when buried, for
the skulls were found touching the upper
leg bones. The teeth are long, strong
and sound, and with nerve cavities much
deeper than in modern teeth, which ages
Of civilization have caused to deteriorate.
The pottery is very interesting, too, in
the side lights it throws on the ancient
and hoary civilization. The markings
seem to be made on the jars with bow.
string, and they stand out in relief as Il
cast in a mould. About one Of the frag-
mentary jars is wrapped coarsely woven
cloth, which had been imbedded in clay
before baking. This shows that the mound
builders, unlike the Indians, were weav.
ers Of considerable ability. Altogether
the discovery is very important in an
archaeological sense, and will create in
terest in the scientific world. Further
researches are to be made.
