A FINE EXHIBITION.
Athletes Put Up a Good Show at
the Il. q. A. G.

the L. ~. "A. u.
Daniel Needham's testimonial at the
Twin city athletic club, Minneapolis.
attracted an attendance of about four
hundred people last evening and the
benefit yields him about as many dol
lars. The program presented was
tirSt-claSS one, the muscular young men
from the L. Z. A. c., and the Mime
apoliS gymnasiums acquitting them
selves i'll style that opened the eyes
of good many who were not aware of
the quantity of amateur athletic talent
Minneapolis possesses. Jerry Murphy
of the fire department juggled a,
III pound dumb bell handily-
James Murphy and Frank Muir
ply followed with a catch-as-catch-
can wrestle, the former winning his
first fall in min. ID Sec, the latter the
second bout in 9 min. As sec. Jerry
Murphy and John Morrisey next tried
conclusions at the same style, Murphy
winning the first fall in 3:20, Morrisey
the second in $3.50. Both matches were
quite exciting, and well contested. j.
ii. OBrien gave very clever eXhibi-
bltlOn of tumbliDg and kicking. He
made hitch and kick with both feet
E feet 10M inches, which is thought to
be the best on record, and kicked over
ten feet with one foot. Exercises on
the parellel bars, brother posturing
act by Sears, Ahless and Henton that
was exceedingly creditable, balancing
of heavy weights by Fred Sears, Indian
club swinging by w. r. Hart and A.
w. Shaw were other interesting feat
ures. Jimmy Hogan and Charley John
son, Billy Smith and Jimmy Manning
gave clever three-round set-tos with the
gloves. The event of the evening was
the four-round contest for points be-
tween Tommy Ryan, of Chicago, and
Dannie Needham. 1t is needless to say
that the set-to was scientific and skill
full, as both are fine boxers. The good
opinion that was formed of Ryan when
he defeated Needham was even height
ened by his exhibition last night.
1t was announced that this months
event of the club will be match be-
tween Charles johnson and Jimmy Man
ming for purse of $3.50, to take place
Tuesday, the gath. The men are to
weigh at 140 pounds at the ring side.

cap at LatOnia, six furlongs, with 1913
pounds up. In this race he conceded
from seven to twenty-four pounds to his
field. A sort Of prejudice has existed
against the get of POwhattan, doubtless
on account Of the failure of maly sons
OF bennington to transmit stamina 10
their get, but the performances of Bur
lington and others have done much to
dissipate this feeling.
Georgetown won the Alexandria
stakes at Louisville, 113 pounds up, five

others. He also won the Harold stakes
at IatOnia, five furlongs, in :02% with
121 pounds up. defeating Palestine. Gas

victory was handicap sweepstakes at
Monmouth Park.
Harry Rays victory was in the Rail
way stakes at Latonia in the fall The
distance was one mile, and Bay carried
ITO pounds in 1:4411a. This a4surs we'll
for his Derby chances.
1OSeHllte is n1gnlV thought or, and
with good reason, too. He improved as
he grew older in his two-year-old form,
and such horses generally develop into
the best three-year-olds. He ran
sweepstakes at Westchester in the fall.
He carried eighty-seven pounds and de-
feated Now or Never, FitZjames and

Belle, Quotation, Wilfred, Joe Black
burn, Longshot and Now or Never He
has shown ability to go distance and
should prove an important factor in the
race. He was the property of Senator
Hearst, and what will be done with him
now is question.

BONNER TALKS HORSE"
He Refuses to Name a Price for
His Stallion Ansel.

His Stallion Ansel.
NEW YORK, March 7.-Robert Bonner
sat IN the parlors of his home, East
Fifty-siXth street, last evening, and
talked interestingly about the trottlng
horse in general, and the merits of his
grand stallion, Ansel, 2:2O, by Elec-
tiOneer. out of the thoroughbred mare
Annette, by Lexington, in particular.
"Mr. Bonner" began the reporter
there is great boom in trOtting stall
lions, and notably in the get of Election
horse Ansel?"
mo, wouldn't think of selling him.
L bought him because l thought him a
perfect horse"
"The fact is," continued Mr. Bonner,
stroking his b card thoughtfully, 81
think so much of him that l am going
to breed Maud S to him. thodght at
first there was too much thoroughbred
for such a union. You know Maud's
granddam is by thoroughbred Boston,
and had given some thought of breed
ing her to WeStchester, a brother to
Majolica. But Ansel has such pure
trotting action that I've determined 10
mate Maud with him."
This announcement will do away
with the many offers Mr.. Bonner has
received for the privilege of breeding
outside stations to Maud S, there hav-
ing been one offer Of Sl2, 600 and two of
$4,000 for such services. Speaking of
thoroughbred blood in the trotter Mr..
Bonner gave the ''nO-trotting-b blood in
theirs" theorists hard knock when he
said:
1.-The three fastest trotters in the
world by the records are Maud s., Jay
Eye See and Sunol. Maud's granddam,
Sally Russell, is by thoroughbred Bos-
ton, Jay Eye Sees granddam, Twilight,
is also gaGghter of Lexington. An
sePs dam is full sister to Sunol's
granddam. The blood of Lexington
blends with trotting strains beauti-
fully.

st. Paul Whist club, to the number of
thirty-four players, were on hand, and
Lewis and Briggs, the committee, were
hustling around for enough players to
fill the tables. The new rooms are on
the second floor, three connected, and
hold fifteen or sixteen tables very NICE

the former place. Among the st. Paul

IAN ERA IN ATHLETICS,
The New Y. NJ. G. A. Gymnasium
to be Opened With Interesting
Events

The New Y. NJ. G. A. Gymnasium
to be Opened With Interesting
Events.
The Young Mems Christian associa-
ton have secured the second and third
floors of Lowry Arcade, in which thew
open their new gymnasium April l. 1t
might be of interest to give briefly the
growth and progress of the gymnasium.
Six years ago it was opened in the pres
ent location when there were but two
classes in physical culture, one for men
and one for boys, the demand not being
large enough to warrant any more.
Since then, however, it has increased
so as to necesSitate at the
present time two classes a
day during the week to supply the grow
iLg demand for the development and
training of the body; in fact. so much
has it increased that there is not room
enough to accommodate all those who
attend, showing that to-day people real
iZe in measure the immense benefit to
be derived from systematic exercise. 1t
is owing mostly to this, and partly to
the fact that the present situation is
not the most desirable, that it has been
absolutely necessary TO seek new quar-
terS where present members can be ac-
cOmmOdated, as well as those who in
tend to become members.
The dimensions of the new gym
nasium are s5X50 feet, and a twenty
four-foot ceiling, giving plenty of light
two very important factors in such an
institution. Among the improvements
will be padded running track, an en-
larged hand ball court, an indoor lawn
tennis court. giving those who engage
i'll this healthful and delightful game an
opportunity to so all the year round.
Besides these there will be enlarged and
better baths, new apparatus, ETC., all of
which, taken together, will make a
thoroughly equipped gymnasium, and
one that will compare favorably with
any in the East. The entrance fee will
be raised to $3.50 and any entering be-
lore the 1st OF April can do SO for IS.
The Y. NJ. Z. A. athletics have won
the admiration of the citizens of St.
Paul, because they have conducted OIL
the first and best principles, strictly by
amatuerS, and the coming season bids
fair to be filled with new features in
the athletic line; the spring games will
occur in June, the aquatic sports at the
club house at Nathaniel, and the ball
sports IN September, and the annual
gymnastic athletic tug of war tourna-
ment will take place at the opening of
the new gym"
The exhibition will consist of con-
tests by about twenty tug-of-war teams
for prize of a beautiful cup given gen
orally by the Finch Jewelry Company.
which will be on exhibition at the "Bos-
ton Clothing house," and an all-round
contest as follows:
/. Running high jump.
2. Standing high jump.
3. Running broad jump.
a. Hitch and kick.
5. Rope climbing.
6. Pole yaulting.
z. Putting twelve pound shot.
The man scoring the greatest average
will receive first prize, gold medal:
the second best average the second
prize, silver medal, etc.
No pains and care have been spared
