II point Of numbers the late Turn Fest
was an unqualified success, and all wEo
witnessed the prize turning on the
morning ofJuly | are satisfied that proper
physical training can do wonders IN de-
veloping the human body However it
cannot be SAID that the Wisconsin asso.
citation enlarged the scope Of its influence
by making many converts fr5m among
the thousands that attended the exercises
IN the afternoon Of that day. Instead of
carrying out program calculated to give
q true idea of the systematic trainIpo
offered IN tie Turner Halls of the state
the timesvas almost wholly devoted to
jumping. II would seem that the manage
meut might have taken tue wisher Of the
spectators INTO consjdera ion inst little.
and have reversed tie order Of the exer-
elses fer the day. II the morning prog.
ram, comprising exercises on double bars.
horizontal bars, horse, and exhibitions in
climbing, jumping and putting the heavy
weight, had been given in the afternoon.
the three Thousand spectators would
have gone away with the thought that
turning means something more than
jumping and foot racing.
Gymnastic training is going into MANY
public schools of the east, and it is safe
! assert that tie tine is not far distant
when every graded school in the land
will be furnished with gymnasium and
a qualified instructor. Iheturrers might
expedite their movement by giving the
public a proper conception of the charac-
ter aud result Of Eymnastic training. but
that would demand better management
OF the Turn TESTS in tina future.

ALMOST KILLED THE OFFICER.
Policeman McGurkss Brufally As
saulted by a Grove Street lang.

Policeman McGurk of the Second pre-
cinct had a lively experience with a
crowd of toughs at five O'Clock this
morning. He was b~rutally beaten, and
it is his belief that his assailants would
have killed him had not John Scanlon
and John Healey, Swapping big Irish
men, gone to his rescue. McGurk had
been detailed in citizens clothes to look
out for persons who nave been dumping
refuse in the lots at Grove and Twelfth
streets.
McGurk was standing near a lamp
post when James Breen, who is nearly
seven feet in height, approached him
and asked, What in are you doing
here?" McGurk advised him to go way.
and the next instant he was struck be
hind the ear. He dropped to the side
walk and Breen began to kick him about
to regain his feet but before he could
defend himself, James McLindan, an
other powerful mar and several others
who escaped arrest, held him while
others beat him until his face and clothes
were covered with blood. His clothes
Were practically torn from his body,
McGurk could not blow his whistle for
help, and his assailants were doing him
up when Scanlon and .Healey took a
hand in the fight. McGurk stated this
morning that he never saw so much
blood flow in a fight before in such a
short time. Breen and McLindan are
held by Justice Potts until their accom-
pliceS are arrested,
