RIGHT HAN BODY BLOW secure one. There
are many good books on the manly art that
cost but little money and furnish the nov
ice with all the points necessary; but
books or no books, teachers or no teachers,
the bright beginner will soon learn how to
protect himself and how to take advantage
of any weakness In his opponents guard.
For the first few days novices will be

their faces and tempers get accustomed to
hard blows. When both have become har-
dened an occasional lively bout will be en-
joyable, but, on the whole, temperate box.
ing will prove more satisfactory in the
long run. Severe blows have a tendency
to ruffie the coolest ~equanimity, and two
evenly matched young men will get more
pleasure and profit out of the sport and
will be more anxious to meet il they box
for points instead of endeavoring to see
how much they can hurt each other.
The cuts in this article represent three
well known blows-the straight counter,
cross counter and right hand body blow.
A young boxer will avoid much trouble
and humiliation IL he is always modest and
slow TO display his proficiency. With
strangers especially this should be his con-
duct, for he may catch n Tartar in some
quiet and inoffensive looking unknown.

TODAYN ELECTIONS

The outlook for the Democrats in the
great election contests of today is 10
every respect encouraging. The interest
of the people generally ceuters upon four
states. Ohio. New York, Massachusetts,
and Iowa. In each one the contest
waged has been a fierce and unrelentrnG
one This is particularly true IN Ohio
whore Mckinley, backed by the protec-
tionists OF the country and a liberal sup
ply of Doodle, started into the campaign
with an election apparently assured. The
mastery, ~pugnacious and brilliant fight
of Campbell has, however, radically
changed the complexion of thugs. The
way he has ratified the dry bones has
been a sight to behold and even the Re-
publicaus admit the possibility of his cleo
ton. Backed as Mckinley has been.
with the future Of the protective policy
LARGELY dependent on his success Camp
BELLS election in Ohio would mean a
tremendous influence upon the national
election next year. The Democrats in
Ohio are very hopeful of the outcome.
we are glad to say, aud Democrats every
where today will wish them God speed in
the elimination of their labors.
The discussion in New York has sell
dom reached the national plane as in
Ohio. The outcome, however, will be
fraught with great consequences. There
seems little doubt of Flowers success, but
the fight will hinge On che possession of
the legislature.
Boies seems perfectly safe in Iowa, and
it is scarcely possible hat Russell can tail
of reelection in Massachusetts,. Both are
strong, clean men and very courageous
fighters.
The general outlook could scarcely be
improved.

reach the residence of a well known New
York amateur boxer just as he surprised a
sneak thief in the act of escaping from the
house with considerable plumber secured
while the family were at dinner. My friend
very promptly engaged the thief. who was
a much heavier man and who showed fight.
During the short but very lively combat
the boxer knocked the thief down three
times, and finally sat upon him until a
policeman arrived and relieved the wrong
doer of his plumber and my friend of his
captive. Thanks to his knowledge of the
manly art, the young boxer not only saved
valuable property and handed a miscreant
over to justice, but he also did it without
getting a mark upon his person.

arm loses all stiffness and awkwardness,
gaining grace and deftness as well as
strength.
The boxers lower limbs are also brought
into active play as he lodges, leaps for
ward or backward, bends down to evade q
blow or braces himself to meet one. The
same constant change of position wakes
to action the muscles of the back, chest,
abdomen and neck, and the violent exer-
ton stimulates the heart, expands the
lungs and gives the 5oxer increased breath
ing space. The gloves are consequently a
well appointed gymnasium by themselves.
They are so light a child may carry the set,
so small they will occupy but part of a
bureau drawer and so inexpensive that
almost any boy or young man may easily
purchase them.
The best set of gloves made by one great

varying excellence come all the way be-

of the gloves, the portions that usually

A terrible state Of affairs has been
existing in the Parish Of Claiborne, for
some time. Lately an attempt was
made to break into the Jail and lynch
a mar confined therein. BY some
means the prisoner had a pistol which
he used, killing or badly wounding
someo of the lynching party and hold
ing the fort. The next night he was
removed by the sheriff into another
parish.
A few days ago a street fight occur
red in Homer, in which one mar was
killed and two or three others wound
ed. These difficulties all grew out of
family feuds of long standing.
This last fight was one, in which
the parties engaged never went into
town without carrying their pistols or
guns prepared for a fight at any mo-
ament.
