TALKS TO THE GYMNASTS.
Physicians To Deliver a Course
of Six Free Lectures.

In order that gymnastic exercise may
accomplish It's Legitimate end there are
many things TO be considered in
choosing the proper methods AMI in
putting them into practical use. Most
men are entirely unfamiliar with the
structure and natural functions of the
organs Of the human body. and
this necessitates educational efforts
along these lines TO be promulgated
in every well-regulated and conducted
gymnasium. The best platform to
build from and the surest test to pat
gvmnastic exercise through when their
adaptability to the average young man
is the main object is found in the fol-
lowing five characteristics or rather
requisites-yiz. Gall exercise should
be short. safe, easy, beneficial, and
pleasing" Brevity admits Of the hand
ling OF a number of men in short
space of time and gives each one
frequent turns at the apparatus.
Safety-that is the bringing the element
OF danger 10 minimum-ls Is essential for
obvious reasons. Simplicity is impera-
tive for the average man when arrayed
in suit of tights and brought face to
face with the German horse or parallel
bars or even put in charge OF simple
pair OF wooden dumb-bolls and told to
DO the most elementary exercise finds
himself somewhat at loss to obey the
command fully and satisfactorily. That
the first requisite OF any exercise should
he its beneficial qualities is indisputable.
Every movement should be thoroughly
tested on this point
EXERCISES SHOULD BE RECREATIyE.
Lastly, exercises should be recreatiye,
not irksome. The person should be di-
verted from his regular surroundings,
thought, and occupation, and the social
side OF the question Is an important one,
combining all these essentials and sum-
ming them into one word, and the result
will be educational. Various means are
used to awaken and maintain intelligent
interest, such as competitions, displays,
lectures, &c.
The Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton gymnasts have on two occasions
ut the Mozart and at other times at the
association gymnasium demonstrated TO
the Richmond public the progress made
during the past eighteen months under
the instruction Of Physical-Director
Smith, and now something new is to be
offered the young men who avail them
selves Of the advantages offered by the
Young Mems Christian Association gym
nasium. Six prominent physicians OF
the city have consented to deliver a
series of six free talks on the human
body and the relation of exercise. The
talks will be given in the gymnasium
and fully illustrated by charts and
special exercises by the class. Admls-
sion is free, by ticket, to members aud
their gentlemen friends.

foam. Like an idiot halted them with

swore they hadn't He said that another
desperate had appeared and that after
desperate fight one OF the robbers had
been killed. AS their ammunition had
given out they were forced to retreat, and
now they were going to organize posse
and go back. l fourished my old horse
pistol around in such a wild manner that
my cousins took it from me.

Upon reaching the house the whole
family discussed the incident with the
greatest interest. My aunt, upon hear
ing my story, had tainted dead away. so

boys had been planning the thing for a
week. They wouldn't let me take gun
because they knew would load it my
self and might do some mischief. 'Old
Hayes had been given me as my steed
because he had more cussedness about
him on such occasions as the one l have
described. And as for that pistol /
would have sworn it was loaded with
cartridges. So it was, too, but the balls
were made of sperm or something OF
that sort.
THE treacherous desperate who shot
from ambush was Will Barnett. He was

attack. That fellow laugLsl 50 much
over the trick and had to scuitle around
so much during the skirmish that he was

sembled to attend the County Court at

about that joke, but there wasn't man

similar circumstances.
