WRESTLING IN OLDEN TIMES
Popular in England at an Early Date,
but ComparativelY New I'm America.

Popular in England at an Early Date,
but Comparatively New i'm America.
Probably the first authentic record of
a wrestling match is in A. D. 1929,
when chivalry on the European CONT
nent was undergoing change for the
better. During the reign of Henry
III. of England a match took place in
St Giles Field, London, between citi-
Zens of Westminster and the city of
London proper. Wrestling was. how
ever, popular as pastime in England
at a much earlier period, and from that
country many of the different styles
originated. Everyone knows how much
friendly rivalry exists between school
boys and how they will tug and pull at
a fellow scholar, after school hours, in
their attempts to gain the mastery.
These early lessons are not lost, as they
only serve to whet the appetite for the
legitimate style which they indulge in
when they reach maturer age.
AS a recognized sport or pastime
wrestling is of comparatively recent
origin in this country. It is, however,
now making rapid strides forward. In
England it is no uncommon event for
twelve or fifteen thousand people to
witness contest between two promi-
nent athletes, mberland and West
moreland, catch-as-catch-can, and Corn
ish and Devonshire being the most
prevalent styles in the tight little
island. The Anglo-Saxon race stands
pre-eminently above all others as the
exponent of wrestling, and on more
than one occas sion the advantages of the
art over boxing in scrimmage have
been demonstra ted. In no other branch
of athletics does science act as foil
to heavy opponents when opposed
by much lighter men to such a
degree as it does when exercised
by thorough master of the art
of wrestling in all it's fine and delicate
points, hence wrestling takes prom
inent place in the athletic exercises of
the leading gymnaslums and clubs all
over the country. and there are hun
dreds of wrestlers both amateur and
professional, who are a credit to the
profession, while the schoolboys who
initiate the professionals early show
evidence of skill Perhaps the most ex-
citing style of any is that practiced in
Japan, for in that country, strange and
outrageous though it may seem, it has
been the barbarous custom, after the
contest, to put the man who has been
unfortunate enough to lose to cruel
death Ga practice fast falling into dis
use). Butting an opponent through
the limits of the ring is considered a
mark of superiority by the Japanese
Lippincott's.

CrL vned In Death.

A French princess is said to have been
crowned after death. This was Inez
de Castro, who was murdered in the
fourteenth century by three assassins.
The lady was the wife of Portuguese
crown prince, and she was murdered by
order of the king-her father-in-law.
The prince never spoke to his father
again, and when the old man died the
remains of Inez were lifted from the
grave, placed on a magnificent throne
and crowned queen of Portugal. The
clergy, the nobility and the people did
homage to the corpse, and kissed the
bones of her hands. There sat the dead
queen, her yellow hair hanging like a
veil round her CHASTITY form One flesh
less hand held the scepter, the symbol
of royalty.-Chicago Herald.

ALTAR DECORATIONS.
Holland Produces the Workers and w
PAY Fabulous Prices for Their Work.

Holland Produces the Workers and We
Pay Fabulous Prices for Their Work.
1t is an interesting and somewhat
curious fact that among all the won
derfully embroidered vestments and
hangings that are used in the churches
only a few are made on this side of
the water.
The best and handsomest come from
that Holland to which we New York
ers trace the ancestry of which we are
most proud, and all the finest work is
done in factories established for the
purpose, and by workmen trained to
the use of both the eye and the hand.
The marvelously beautiful gold work
that is SO prominent feature of eccle-
siastical embroidery is divided into
three sorts, according to the value of
the thread, and must be done by men,
for it requires strength beyond that of
a woman's muscles. The most costly
and most enduring of all is executed
with silver thread plated with purest
gold and will show no sign of tarnish
after many years
The second quality is plated upon
copper, and though when new it makes
a goodly showing, can not be trusted
to withstand the test of time; while the
third consists of braids and spangles,
which are simply sown upon the cloth.
The threads are made expressly for
this particular sort of work, and al
though both France and Germany sup
ply much of the material that pre-
ferred by experts comes from Holland,
and has a peculiar flexible quality
which all others lack.
The design to be embroidered is first
stuffed with parchment to the required
thickness and is then couched with the
fine gold threads until it presents the
rich raised appearance that is char
acteristic of all good ecclesiastical
work. Only sturdy, muscular men can
handle the thread.
In the ancient town of Roermond
there exists an ecclesiastical factory,
presided over by a genuine lover of the
art Here skilled artisans produce pic
lures which are faithful copies of the
work of the brush.
The pain ting to be copied is placed
before the embroiderer, who not only
reproduces in the most faithful man.
ner, but at the same time is required to
materially reduce the size and keep the
proportion perfect
And for this delicate work is used
neither a sketched outline nor mag
nifying glass, which latter, by en-
larging the surface, might simplify the
labor.
Although the embroiderers are paid
appallingly small wages, the work is SO
costly as to enter only into the most
gorgeous vestments reserved for the
highest feasts; for all the year other
and cheaper work is done both in Ger
many and in France, and we are now
beginning to learn the art here in New
York.
But up to the present time only such
isolated pieces as are done by individ-
uals or in nunueries have been pro-
duced in this country.
The great difference IN the cost of
labor makes it cheaper to import the
finished work, and SO long as that state
of affairs continues our churches will
depend upon foreign lands for the
greater number of their vestments and
their hangings.-N. Y. Recorder.
