around the waist, aud the maximum girth
around the stomach was As inches From
point of shoulder he measured 20 inches.
muscles OF right arm Is s inches, neck 1715
inches.
Yesterday Drs. Dudley, Sargent and
George, assisted by DIR. Wells Bitz Of the
Hemenway gymnasium of Harvard College,
took the great pugilists measurements.
which registered as follows: Chest 4215
inches, a gain Of III inches; waist, 36.6
inches, falling OF of IL fnches; thigh, 2S.S
inches; muscles of right arm, l5.7 inches; a
loss of inch; neck, 16,5 inches. loss Of one
inch; chest capacity, 300 cubic inches.
1t will be seen that the mighty maa from
Boston has been training faithfully under
the watchful eye of Phil Casey, since ne
has reduced his waist measurement by
nearly eleven inches.
That Sullivan has increased his chest
measurements by over an inch and half,
and developed the muscles Of his mighty
right arm to considerable extent, is pleasing
news. be has also taken about an inch and
a half of fat off his neck.
DR.. Sargent brought with him new
faugled instrument to test the swiftness and
striking velocity of Sullivan's blows The
instrument consisted Of a table fitted with
complicated electrical apparatus. On two
supporters connected together with wire
were two fan-like arrangements made Of
slender bamboo rocs STUCK about one quar-
ter OF an inch apart. The two fans we're
1914 inches apart, with leather punch
ing bag suspended next to the furthest one,
can be seen in the diagram.
The device is similar to one that registers
the speed Of rifle ball in the government
factory at Springfield. When all was
ready button was touched, a wheel COM
menced TO revolve, and a white flag sus-
pended near the punching bag fell, announc-
ing that all was in readiness.
Sullivan struck terrible blow through
the slender bamboo reeds, and as lthey fell
over they registered on q dial the velocity
at which he struck the bag. The device
registered just .0575 Of a second as the time
taken to cover 15$4 inches
There are only fourteen days of training
left for the big follow. He is two pounds
under the weight at which he will fight,
and still Casey says that within the next
three days he will probably be reduced to
200 pounds He is totally different look
ing man to what he was when he came here
on July s. If brightness of eye, elasticity
of step, and hardness of muscle are lndica-
t1ons of good condition, then John L. is In
fine shape,
Casey has performed his work so care
fully that there is only a remote possibility
of the champions vitality heing impaired
Casey calculates that John L. will gain at
least ten pounds between Aug q and Sept.
z, when he enters the ring. He will keep
up moderate training, however. until the
last moment, and will indulge in gymnastic
exercise and pounding the bags even while
riding in the cars. If Sullivan is defeated
il will not be because he has not done all in
his power to put himself in perfect physical
cond ition.

Suggestion for a Summer Trip

If YOU wish to take the trip of a lifetime,
purchase the low rate excursion tickets
sold by all principal lines in the United
States and Canada via the Northern
Pacific Railroad to Yellowstone National
Park, Pacific cost and Alaska.
The trip is made with the highest
degree of comfort in the elegant vesti-
buled trains of the Northern Pacific Rail
road, which carry dining cars and lux
urious Pullman sleeping cars from
Chicago, st. Paul and Minneapolis to
Montana and the Pacific coast, without
change, and special Pullman sleepers
from St Paul and Minneapolis to Yellow
stone Park.
The scenery en- route is the most magni-
ficent to be found in the seven States
through which the road passes. Beauti-
full mountains, rivers, valleys, lakes and
plains follow each other in rapid success
sion to delight the tourist, who will also
find interest in the agricultural, mining,
numbering, Industrial and other interests
associated with the development of the
great Northwest.
Thecrowning glory of the trip through
the Northwest, however, is the visit to
| Yellowstone Park, the land of hotsprings,
geysers and gorgeous canons, and to
| Alaska with it's endless ocean channels:
snow-capped peaks, Indian villages and
/ giant glaciers.
If you wish to investigate this sugges-
ton further send to Charles $. Fee, Gen
eral Passenger Agent, n. =. K. r., st

illustrated Wonderland book, Yellow
