A Few Words In Reply.

EDITORS 1NTELLIGENCER Please allow
me space in your valuable columns for a
few words in reply to the editor of the Ad.
tocate, relative to the s'slugging match" as
he chooses to term it. How strange this
man who has made it his profession to
instruct the youths of this God: forsaken
country, intellectually, physically and
morally, should hold up his hands in holy
horror of this manly art of scientific
sparring, that was never introduced in the
school of science to be called slugging,
but to be called sparring, for that is the
proper name. And take occasion to say
that if the editor, who, by the way, is the
School Commissioner Of this a la Mexican
country would introduce some athletic ex-
eroises in the schools, such as slugging,
skipping the rope, punching the bag and
taking little trot of four or five miles oc-
casionally, we would have less OF these
measley, officiating, stoop.shouldered, 4,
igarette-smoking and dime novel reading
boys, and our girls would have some
shape on them, too, instead of looking like,
as most Of them do, feather bed tied in
the middle. Yes, let the boys "slug" and
the girls skin the cat; it will do them
good. Healthy bodies mean healthy
minds. Away to the woods, you country
editors, where the boys spend Sundays
hunting muscadines and throwing rocks
at wasp's nest, and the gals string chin
