The procession vas In several large IL

line
There were thirty-six bands in the
parade. and, besides these fourteen drum
corps. The parade was six miles long,
and contained probably 10000 men.
The marchers carried Roman candles,
which were discharged as they went

CRITICISM or BRICE.
The last-named. in his speech. made
severe criticism upon Senator Brlce' py
the following allusion to his vote on IN,
Wilson tariff BILL at the close OF a re-
sumo of Democratic legislation:
yet, | confess frankly that all was
not done that might have been done-that
should have been done-by the Fifty
third Congress-nay. that would have been
done had five United States senators not
proved recreant TO the trust reposed IN
them by the people.
ITO what purpose should Democrats
refuse to vote their party ticket because
five senators proved recreant 10 their
trust? When these men had done their
worst. they were found side by side with
thirty-eight Republican members of the
United States Senate. thus clearly estab-
fishing the position that the worst kind Of
a Democratic senator Is as good as the
best kind Of Republican senator"
The meeting was very enthusiastic. ana
is generally conceded 20 have been a
success. II it can be regarded as re-
liable indication. the Democrats Of ohio
are certainly alive and enthusiastic.

Physical Culture for Boys.


10y IIOltsSpt ~. sNNidlLtIJ
We are apt TO think that the ceaseless
activity OF boys develops their bodies
sufficiently without the necessities OF spe-
cial attention on our part. While they
are WY Young. this l. undoubtedly
the case. and were they always permit
ted to exercise in their own discretion,
1t might continue to be so. Cnfortu-
nately a large proportion OF boys, par
t!cularly those old enough TO 10 10 school.
live under artificial conditions and in an
environment which renders this natural.
method insufficient.
If we insist upon keeping boys whom
nature intended TO lead a free. outdoor
life. like young animals, in constrained
position for four or five hours each day
with very few intervals OF relaxation,
they must suffer.
In the schOol-room perfect Stiffness is
elevated into virtue, while motion is the
law Of childhood. Every one will concede
that the tender and rapidly-growng body
of the child must suffer from the neces-
sity OF being confined eight or ten years
i'm the close atmosphere OF the school
or private study-roOm. For this reason
the constraint OF intellectual labor ought
10 be relieved by the agreeable exercise
of his vital powers.
The weaker the body. the more II COM
mands: the stronger II Is, the more II
obeys. said Jean Jacques Rousseau In
his Emile" and Juvenal expresses the
SAM thought in his generally imper-
fectly-quoted maxim: "Optandum est, ut
sit mems sana. In corpore sano." Thus
physical training not only strengthens
the bones and muscles but also corrects
the bodily defects arising from evil hab-
its.
wholesome influence Is eXerted on
the nerves, courage increases. self-conh-
dence ~ strengthened; by the measuring
OF his strength the boy is guarded
against rashness. and by means OF rapid.
appropriate use Of his strength. and the
entire control of his body. his power
Of will and Of action receive their high
est development.
Jain. the father OF modern gymnas
ties. says beautifully: The one grows
stronger. the Other grows more vigorous
by his strength. IL encouraged and ee-
waited himself.
Physical culture Is beginning To be re-
allied. newspapers and magazines are
discussing the subject. and both public
schools and colleges are introducing gym
nastics. wisely considering judicious
physical development the best meals
Of advancing mental culture.
