TENNESSEE CENTENNIAL.
The LoEest Rates Ever Made to an
ExTfDsition in This Country.

The position in commemoration of the
hundred 4 anniversary of the admission of
Tenness. into the Union is not a local af-
fair by ~ means. 1t far surpasses in ex-
tent of nldings, beauty of grounds, inter
esting exhibits and number of both foreign
and hong attractions any exhibition ever
held in this country, with the possible ex-
ception of the Columbian of 1898 Located
as it is on the main line of the Louisville &
Nashville Railroad it is in the direct line
of travel petween the North and the South,
and can Sc visited en- route with loss of but
little time. The extremely low rates that
have been established make it cheaper to go
a little ou7 of your way, even, to take in
this great how, while its own attractions
will well pay a special visit. Write Mr.

lDishonored Drafts.

When the stomach dishonors the drafts
made upon it by the rest of the system, it
is necessarily because its fund of strength is
very low. Toned with Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters, it soon begins to pay out vigor
in the shape of pure, rich blood, containing
the elements of muscle, bone and brain. AS
sequence of the new vigor afforded the
stomach, Jhe bowels perform their functions
regularly, and the liver works like clock
work. Malaria has no effect upon system
thus reinforced.

Club and Association.

Some interesting definitions were re-
Gently laid down by tho Amateur Ath-
letic association of tho Pacific states as
follows: An amateur athletic club is
one which is created, operated and
maintained strictly for the advancement
and development of general amateur
athletics; which gives every encour-
agement to its members to engage in
athletic exercise and sport within strict
ly amateur lines as q means of recrea-
ton and promoting good health; which
does not allow within its membership
any person who does hot pay the usual
initiation fee, customary dues and other
charges for which members are liable.
An amateur athletic association is
ono which shall adopt bylaws, rules
and regulations in consOnance with the
constitution, bylaws, rules and regula-
lions of this association, whose mem
bcrship shall consist of not less than
two organizations, created, operated
and maintained for tho advancement
and development of any branches of
amateur athletics. San Francisco Elk

AS Ted Alexander and Dan Lynch
have announced match between Joe
Goddard, Tie Australian heavyweight,
and Sailor Tom Sharkcy at San Fran
cisco next November. it is evident that
the Makers harkcy fight is off for tho
present. The National Athletic club
has, it is said, offered $40, 900, for the
bout, and Goddard will como to this
country from Ireland tonce Goddard's
appearance i'll America will tend to stir
up matters among the hcavyweights, MS
his record entities him to DO classed
with the best of tho big men and a
notch above Maher and Sharkey God
dard has knocked out Joo Choynski
twice, in fonr rounds each time, and in
1892 knocked out Peter Maher in three
rounds at Coney Island. His most re-
cent fight of importance was with Den

four rounds at johannesburg, South

THE SPORTING WORLD.

The strong young men Of the Chicago
Athletic association will take part in
tho fall games of the New York Ath-
letic club in October at Trayers island.
The team will include Rush, Mayb,wy,
Krlenzlein, Henneman, Richards and
the Chicago Athletic association stand
ing jump crack, c. Ewry. The excellent
showing that tho westerners made at
the national championships assures u
spirited contest with the big club of
the east. In consequence of the accept
ance of the westerners tho programme
of the games has been necessarily
changed, and instead of the usual open
games. there will be but two, or possibly
three, events open to all amateurs.
There will bo IL scratch events open to
the New York and Chicago athletes
alone, two men being allowed to COM
pete from each club in every event Fol-
lowing are tho events for the dual strug-
gle:
Fifty yard dash, $50 yard dash,
$50 yiard dash, $50 yard run, 100 yard
hurdle race, 22O yard hurdle race, put
ting the shot, throwing the hammer,
throwing the discus, standing high
jump, standing broad jump aud mile
relay race for teams of four men. Tho
handicap events will probably DO 100
yard dash and mile run, and two mile
stccplcchaso may be later added to the
list. The standing jumps are unusual
i'll competitions nowadays and arc
placed on tho programme particularly
for the purpose of giving Ewry an OPP
portunity of meeting Schwaner of the
New York Athletic club, Ewry holds
the present record for the standing high
jump, while Schwaner holds tho anna
teur record for the standing long jump,
made five years ago at Travers island
The contests between the leading clubs
OF tho east and the west will form fit
ting wind up to successful season of
outdoor amateur sports York
