Danny Richardson has a peculiar disease
similar to the one which frightened Tier
nan almost to death about two years ago.
Dan will probably get over it just the same
rs Herman has. Richardson, while not the
most robust OF playcrs, is well put together,
and has considerable muscular activity.
Still he is afraid OF that dreaded scourge
consumption. There is probably no more
consumption in Richardson than there Is
In old Arson. Two years ago Michael
Herman was a victim to the same super
s%tition, and a visit to his room was inter
esting. Michael had all the sides OF his
room arranged with big shelves, on which
hundreds OF bottles OF various medicines
and connections rested. He used to take
enough medicine every day to %depopulate
an ordinary hospital. He was always sick,
or rather thought he was. One day Mutrie
went up to Tiernan's room and with his
big ebony stick he made seven or eight
rapid passes along these shelves. Every
bottle In the room was smashed to pieces.
Herman has never been sick since. He can
hit a ball probably as hard as any man in
the world, but II he had been left to him.
self he woul probably have scared himself
into consumption and then to the grave.

The Association situation is a peculiar

the time for action comes Louisville. Wash.

are too many cities without baseball now
to crowd Columbus and Louisville into the
graveyard. The south is a great baseball
morgue, but the game died there OF high
salary complaint. Detroit and indianapolis
are the only northern cities of note that
have nc representation in any baseball or

enthuse over the international and forth

SPORTING NOTES.

The New York Herald suggests that the
dispute over the worlds championship
among heavy weight pugilists be settled
by battles between Sullivan and Slavin,
Mitchell and Corbett and between the two
men who win. As Slayin and Sullivan seem
to be coming together, and as Corbett is
after Mitchell, the suggestion seems likely
to be followed.
Luther Cary, the Splinter, won seven
prizes in England and France and did even

made TO move on rollers, which lessons the
friction still more aud does away with the
oil which formerly besmeared theaoars-
man Further changes Of doubtful value
nave also been tried recently. Boats have
been constructed with seats on runners,
inclining slightly aft, on the theory OF as
sisting the oarsman on the recover, but as
it only relieves those muscles which re-
quire the least assistance its utility is
doubtful. The same may be said Of slides
inclining alternately toward the starboard
and port sides. which have recently been
tried in English eights. an the ground that
the oarsmen thereby obtain a greater reach.
Slides are made from six to twelve inches
in length, and the advantage over fixed
seats said to be gained by their use, though
not positively known, is about twelve sec
onds to the mile.
The early races were rowed entirely in
wooden boats with keels. These were
gradually superseded by keelless boats.
The first paper boats were invented by an
American in 1867, and they almost immedi-
Ately took the place OF wooden boats, which
were slower and heavier. Oflate years, how
ever, boat building has reached such point
of perfection that cedar shells are again
taking the place Of paper, for they are
made lighter and are found to be speedier.
Paper shells will doubtless long be used
for practice, as they are much tougher than
those OF wood, but the racing OF the future
will probably be entirely confined to cedar
shells. Harvard's easy victory over Yale
last June is partially credited by some to
the fact that she used a cedar shell While
Yale rowed a paper boat.
The average dimensions Of an eight Dared

The first decided change in racing bonts
was the introduction OF the outrigger.
The invention is generally credited to
Henry Clasper, of Newcastle-onITyne, who
became world renowned as a boat builder
In the early history OF rowing. He had
previously built racing wherrles with 1ared
gunwales, which were practically outriR-
gers, in order to give the sculler better
leverage, and this suggested to him the
idea OF still further improving the
leverage by afixing iron outriggers.
He put the idea into execution in 1874, and
e>ok his boat to London, where it immedi-
ately proved a success, and the use Of iron
outriggers has ever since been general.
Nevertheless his idea was not entirely orig
inal, for short wooden Outriggers had been
tried in England in 1928 and 1880, but by
reason of their incorrect application were
OF little value.
The next change in the racing boat was
even more radical. This was the introduce
ton of sliding seats, and was due to the
ingenuity of an American. Sliding on a
fixed seal had been practiced occasionally,
long before Mr.. J. G. Babcock, of the Mas
sau Boat club, of New York, perfected the
idea in 1865. Scullers were aware Of the
fact that sliding would facilitate speed by
bringing into use the powerful muscles OF
the legs, and cases had been known where
seats had previously been CREASED for this
purpose. But, unfortunately, though
more speed could be attained on n squirt,
the great friction shortly exhausted the
sculler's entire frame, besides making it
decidedly uncomfortable for a certain por-
ton OF his anatomy.
Mr.. Babcock constructed his first sliding
seat in 1857, and another ~scullrr, Mr.. w.
Brown, tried one in 1861 but relinquishedit it.
, 1891-08-29

In 1869 Mr.. Babcock again tried his hand
at IL and turned out y six Dared crew on
slides; he then disco 'ered that the appa-
ratus increased their speed considerably.
After this sliding seats came into general
use, and the two Tyne crews which came
to America in 1871 took the idea back to
England, where it shortly became popular.
Old oarsmen held up their hands in holy
horror, for it was seen that "A crew rowing
in poor form on slides could beat a good
crew on fixed seats. The slide, however,
simply revolutionized rowing, and when
its proper use was learned there was no
further objection raised.
The first sliding seat simply ran in an
oiled groove, later the friction was lessened
by introducing two narrow strips of steel,
which were oiled, and on which the seat
moved. but Of late years the seat has been

not invented purely for amusement and

other such pastimes. 1t is then natural
that the sport should have begun with
those whose calling It was to row
and the earliest authentic accounts OF
races are those of the Thames Waterman in
England. In 1715 Thomas Doggett, an
actor, founded q race called "Doggett's
Coat and Badge" for watermen. The
prizes were fees which paid for the free
dom of the river and the winner received
besides a red coat, with n silver badge
