the wonderful hai.storm which recently
visited the southwest coast OF that Central
American republic. His letter. in part, is as
follows:

RECORD BREAKING.
The Rage for 1t Is Gratificd at the Cost
of Many shortened Lives.

Tho Rage for II Is Gratificd at the Cost
of Many Shortened Lives.
A bicyclist has complished the extraordi.
nary feat o ridIn. from the most northerly
point in Scotland to the extreme Southern
point of England in eighty-six hours and
fifteen minutes. The most remarkable pa.
of the act Is included in the TACT that he per
formed his task without indulSing in one
moment of sleep. He was three days. four
teen hours and fli.een minutes without re-
clining or resting or ceasing his active move
ment of propulsion except for the very Driefest
moments.
The English Lancet points out that the
modern rage for record breaking is gratifled
at the cost OF many shortened lives. The
healthy heart will beat 100000 times in the
twenty-four hours, accomplishing work
equal to lifting 122 tons one foot. But it has
recently been shown that cycling tells Sc
verely and specially upon the circulation.
and that the number Of strokes of the heart
is doubled during such active exercise as
that to which the rider subjects himself. The
lowest estimate, therefore. of the work of the
heart OF the record breaker Just mentioned
would be 2l2,000 beats. with work done Of
pa foot tons. This, maintained for the
specified time. was equal to more than $50
tons without repose.
Setting aside the physiological bearings of
the performance, IL suggesting that there is
something in persistent motion of the blood.
sustained by voition of Il resoiute kind, which
prevents the nervous system from passing into
that passive or negative state to which the
term ''sleep" is applied, its practical lesson
bears on the ultimate influence of extreme
exercise on the bodies of young men who
make themselves the victims of self-inflicted
injury. Apparently the a hlete is none the
worse for such feat as this, but in reality he
will have to pay n severe penalty for thus out
raging nature. These violent strains bode in
the end the certainty of premature decrepitude.
Toward the goal of death the best heart can
only perform a certain measure OF work. and
whether that be done by rapid or slow process
determines the length OF the days In which 1t
is done. Theoretically. these young competi-
tors, who otherwise might be destined for a
long and active existence. will succumb and
break down long before the sun of their life
has reached its meridian. and The Lancet
states that SO inr this naS pFactfca1sy hasaehs-
fate Of all those who have endcavored, under
the applause of their unthlnking comrades, TO
do what nature has not constructed them for
doing without risk.
