A BIG SUCCESS.
Another Large Audience at the baptist
Entertainment.

Another Large Audience at the baptist
Entertainment.
There was another large audience at
the rink last night to witness the per-
Torrance given for the benefit of the
Baptist Sunday School. The pro-
gramme given on Thursday night was
repeated with additional musical fea-
lures. The Tambourine Drill was
given even more satisfactorily than on
the first night, and the choruses were
all excellent. Prof Brockenshire sang
the solos in the Coopers' Chorus ex-
ceedingly well. Miss Bessie House
worth was the pianist last evening
and she manipulated the keys very
creditably. The two overtures g Poet
and Peasant y and Semiramide" by
Miss Bessie Houseworth and Miss
Myra Cline pleased the audience ex-
ceedingly well as did also the solo by
Miss Kelly Of Hagerstown.
The committee of arrangements,
composed Of Miss L. Robinson, Miss
L. L. Flick, Miss Bessie Houseworth
and Miss May Faulkner desire us to
thank those who participated in and
aided in making the entertainment Sc
much Of q success also the citizens Of
Martinsburg for their liberal patron.

BRISSEL'S CHAMPION.
Attorney-GeneraI Hart to the Con-
stables Rescue.

Attorney-General Hart to the Con-
stables Rescue.
About a month ago Constable Brissel
and Sheriff Stanley got into an alterca-
ton as to who was the proper officer to
take youthful offenders to Los Angeles
who had been committed to the Whittier
Reform School by Justice of the Peace.
Justice Henry had committed two BOYS
to the school, and both officers wanted
thejob of escorting them, particularly as
the mileage and per diem was quite de-
sirable.
The matter was submitted to the Dis
tr1ct Attorney, and he decided that, ac-
cording to the terms of the Act establish
ing the school, only a Superior judge
could commit boys, and that the Sheriff
was the proper officer to take the young
prisoners to the school.
In consequence the two boys commit
ted were then taken before Superior
Judge Van Fleet and duly committed,
and the Sheriff acted as their escort south.
But Constable Brissell was not even
then satisfied with the case, and submit
ted the facts to Attorney General Hart
Yesterday he received a reply from that
official, which is opposed to the decision
OF the District Attorney. 1t was as fol-
lows:
''Joh9e p. BriSSel, Esq, Sacramento.
Cdt.-DEAR SIR: am Of the opinion that
under Section 16 of the Act creating the
State Reform School, a Justices Court has
jurisdiction and power to commit iuve-
nile offenders to said school, and that the
constable being the officer of that court,
is the proper official to convey the of
fender to the school. Yours respectfully,

81 will relate case to you of young
man l was with in Honolulu about nine
years ago. He was one of those only
boys in the family you know. He was
very esthetic sort of a fellow. He
would get up in the morning and wash
himself in luke-warm water, and all that
sort of business. Well, to cut the story
short, had to talk myself hoarse to him
for about six months in order to make
him understand that would make him
strong and healthy if, of course, be

shower-bathing, good food, a little claret
or milk at meals in place of coffee and
tea. To this day you may see that young
fellow every Sunday at Harbor View (he
is at San Francisco now taking his swim,
and tellsyou he is asshealthy and strong

Whenever some friends tell him they
do not feel well, even if it is only corn,
he says: Take shower baths; go swim

view now, as it is time to take charge of
my classes. / do hope, though, that the
young folks of Sacramento, as well as the
old, will profit by these few hints have
given you for publication. It is the
easiest thing in the world to enjoy good
health and strength, if you only want to.
And 1t does not cost you a cent, either.

springs and seashore, and in all sorts Of

interviewer, and moment later was

will accomplish more good and build the
system up better than any amount of
heavy work. One should not exercise
until fatigued, and if care is taken in the
beginning, condition of fatigue can
scarcely be reached, no matter how long
this sort of light exercise is INDUCED in.
A representative of the RECoRD-U UNION
dropped into the gymnasium of the Sac
ramento Athletic Club a few evenings
ago, in the hope of picking up a few new
points on this subject of physical culture.
1t was class night and the club men
We're donning their tights and slippers

A BENEFICIAL FAD.
Professor Cal. Godefroy, instructor in
physical culture and gymnastics at the
club, was found in his dressing-room,
and Willie divesting himself of his street
clothes, preparatory to putting on his
gymnasium suit, talked freely with the
reporter regarding his profession.
You often hear people talk about the
physical culture fad,'' said the Pro-
tessor. Fad is getting to be a very
popular word. But to apply it to physical
culture seems to me TO be somewhat
ridiculous. You might just as well speak
being good health fiend.' 1t is difficult
for me to comprehend how person who
prefers not TO be sick and complaining all
the time can be looked upon as q crank"
do you think it necessary asked the
newspaper man, that persons, in order
to improve their physical conditions.
should spend most of their time in gym
nasiumS?"
NATURES LAWS.
Not at all. / would be very foolish to
think so. By a strict adherence 10 the
laws of nature anybody can become
strong and healthy without ever seeing
the inside of a gymnasium. OF course
the gymnasium is a grand thing for
young men who have to work at desks
all day, and do not have an opportunity
70 get much outdoor exercise. / believe
also that even for those who can get out
door exercise the gymnasium is a good
thing, as there are various apparatus
there that are wonderful developers of
the muscular system, ana furnish kind
OF exercise that cannot always be had out
of doors. But it is not the kind of exer-
else so much that should be preached to
those who take no exercise at ALL The
first care is to get them started at any
kind of light exercise. The finishing
touches can be applied afterward"
Have you any set rules by which YOU
guide those under your charge to health
and strength" asked the scribe.
Well" replied the Professor, tugging
at the laces of his gymnasium shoes, L
can hardly say that they are set rules of
my own. They are simply natures rules.

them out. Now, have a Jew moments

especially, who. if they would follow
system of light exercise, would feel bet
ter in every way. But no, they will tell
you that it is too much labor. 1t is the
same way with great many ladies whom
L have sought to teach athletics. If they
would have little less rocking-chair and
buggy riding it would be a great deal
better for them.
''A person who is not a hard laboring
man should at least pass part of his
time in the gymnasium. 1t only re-
quires little will-power sand you Will
find out in time the benefit you will de-
rive from it. A clerk at least ought to be
there three times a week and do active
work for about three hours. l do not
believe in any spcial apparatus to the
exclusion of others, as they are all good,
and then by the variety you will build
yourselfup in proportion. Now, / will

theories are on this whole subject Of
physical culture.
THE STOMACH FIRST.
1.-THE principal thing is to have a good
stomach, and to acquire that one must
partake of good, wholesome food, and
have regular habits in everything. The
majority of the rising generation do not
know how to diet properly. They eat too
fast and indulge in too many sweetmeats.
A little of it after good, substantial
meal goes long way, but when you see
or herself on cake, coffee and tea con-
stantly, what can you expect? They are
just running their constitutions and
stomachS.
''Of course, with youngsters it depends
upon the parents great deal. When a
child is told to eat good plate of broth
he will get his little temper up. The re-
suit will be piece of cake or other sweet
meats in place of that good, health-giv-
ing broth. So would advise good food
and plenty of sleep in the right time.
Go to bed early, rise early and get that
fresh morning air which is one of the
most invigorating natural tonics per-
son can get. Plenty of fresh air, good
food, exercising indoors and outdoors,
and then we will have better-shaped peo-
pie and healthier.
Exercise is a better way to relieve the
system OF any surplus than by medicine,
because exercise strengthens the mus
cular system, while medicine weakens it.
One is natural while the other is an
artificial method.
USE oB APPARATUS.
Snow, then, will try to give you the
modus operandi Of the different ways TO
build your constitution by the use of
apparatus in the gymnasium. Unfortu-
nately great many persons start in too
vigorously. They will keep it up for
about two weeks, and of course they
overdo themselves. That usually settles
it. They will drop their exercise and
then you will not see them for couple of
months. You ask them what is the
trouble, and they will tell you: oh,
how I wished that 1 had kept it up

PHYSICAL CULTURE.
Some Hints From Professor Godefroy
of the Athletic Club.
Wholesome Food, Exercise, Fresh Air
and Bathing are the Require
ments-Pointers.

So much has been said and written
about physical culture that most every
body is more or less familiar with the
primary rules and theories for attaining
health and strength.
Still it is astonishing how few take ad-
vantage of this knowledge.
''Too much trouble' is invariably the
excuse. And yet these same persons
will throw away thousands of dollars for
drugs, lung strengtheners, liver cleaners,
kidney cures and the like, and will spend
thousands more on trips to the mount
aims, springs and seashore "for their
health" All this can be saved and still
the object attained in the simplest man
ner imaginable. Drugs and patent medi-
cines will not accomplish what good,
healthful exercise will.
POPULAR MISTAKES.
1t is a great mistake to imagine that
physical culture means the cultivation OF
huge, knotty biceps, calves and thighs
by the use of big, unwieldly dumb-bells,
clubs and pulleys. These are all well
enough for professional athletes, whose
bread and butter depend upon their de-
velopment. Light exercise, such as
walking, running, rope-skipping, hand
ling lightweight dumb-bells and clubs
