his wife. She remained three days af-
ter seeing Luther, living with Place,
and then separated from him. Soon
after she began a suit for a divorce
from Luther, but this the Supreme

NORMAL SCHOOL GYMNASIUM.


The gymnasium at the state Normal
school is now open TO pupils. and Prof.
John T.. Doldt, formerly physical di-
rector of the Providence Athletic Club
has charge of the classes. which exer-
else from 9.45 a. IN. to S15 y. m. daily.
Mr.. Doldt has given great deal of at
tention to the equipment of the new
gymnasium, and the result Is that IL is
complete I'm every detail, and also pos
sesses some new and very useful fea-
lures.
Chief among the new things is what
Ia known as a Swedish bar of which
there are two. When not in use they
swing under the rafters, but in a min
ute they can be lowered to any useful
height. Telescope rods fixed i'm the floor
and attached To the centre of the bar,
and having turn buckles for nice ad-
justment, help to steady this immense
piece OF lumber. 30 feet six inches I'm
length. This is probably the largest
bar i'm the world. A crank near the ex-
treme end OF the bar turns up one side
OF the long apparatus SO that the pupil
may put her whole hand, including her
thumb over the bar, or the mechanism
revolves IL half around so that the one
exercising can put her fingers down into
a groove. getting practically the same
result dS III oii. the oiu-hihu hofiIoitdi
bar
Another novelty Is the arrangement
of the swinging ring. A brake attached
10 a pulley placed on the ropes near
where they are fastened TO the over
head timbers prevents the usual sag of
the ropes which ordinary swinging rings
have. When the rope goes back IL
tightens the brake. as Ii Is set eccentric
TO the pulley. These IL ropes are alto
gether raised or lowered by means OF a
windlass or individually adjusted by
twisting the rope over iron pins. The
rings are snapped on or off by common
bits.
Then there is the measuring room. In
which there will be a machine for re-
cording sectional and diametric dis
tances Behind the woman assistant
conducting the examination will be
a pencil that will trace the lines
of measurement. This will show
Immediately the faults Of carriage
and will avoid the evil results of the
unconscious desire OF the human meas
urer always TO make his subject as well
formed as the tape allows. In the base
ment are 300 lockers. each one foot off
the floor and four feet I'm height. Here
also are the dressing rooms. made of
curtains attached to iron piping, and
divided into 3S apartments. II is but n
step FOR the girl from the locker TO
the dressing room. Then, on the inside
OF these private apartments are the
baths. There are ~ showers. also but
a step from the drossing-room. and they
individually fit singly into "a marble
room which Is curtained with rubber
cloth. 49,.

Colonel AbbOt'S Condition

MANY HAVE GONE TO WORK
Batterymen Secured Employment
During Fur!Oughs.

The latest news from Middletown,
Pa. is 10 the effect that Col. Abbot,
commanding officer of the First Rhode

geon Robinson states that his condition
today is very satisfactory. The other
sick OF the regiment, distributed i'm the
several hospitals, are reported to be
doing well, and all of them are on the
them viii be discharged and given fur
loughs in week or two.
Most of the men of the two Rhode
Island batteries, now on leave OF abb
sence from Camp Dyer for 80 days. have
returned to their several occupations,
and Il is now probable that, In order not
to cause them to lose more time, the
mastering out Will take place In Provi-
dence. This will avoid the necessity OF
conveying all the men to Quonset Point
once more, and the military authorities
are of the opinion that the business can
be transacted quicker here than 1t can
at the camp.
Talk About the. First.
The story that the First Rhode ISL
and Regiment is to go either to Cuba
or Porto Rico for garrison duty has
again been revived at Camp Meade.
and In certain quarters has obtained
considerable credence. All this talk,
however, is based upon pure conjecture.
for no orders have been issued which
authorize any such opinion to be
formed. The boys seem to enjoy talk
ing about foreign service. and even IL
there Is nothing in IL. at least II helps
4 . I'm hn
ing hours; and 1t Is fact that. IL the
vegfment is not TO be mustered out
,oon. the bulk of the men would prefer
cuba or Porto Rico to camp life at
Niddletown or any other point In the
country.
Quite a number of the officers of the
regiment are engaged on boards OF in
quiry and court martials. and capt;
Slyne OF Company X and Capt. Card OF
Company l. arc the last ones who have
been called upon 20 pass judgment upon
the faults of various delinquents who

Slyne's company Is at present homo on
furlough. Privates Redding. Chap
pelle and Hawkins. who have been de-
tailed as members OF the hospital corps,
left for the division hospital yesterday.
but the length OF their term OF service
is not known.
The men are rapidly recuperating at
Camp Meade, and the sick list Of the
regiment is gradually dwindling. al
though there are still some cases OF
sickness which are more or less serious.
Two typhoid fever suspects from the
Rhode Island Regiment were yesterday
removed from the division hospital to
the Charity hospital at Norristown.
They were Corp. Fred III. Ball OF Com
pany III and Private Benjamin Cunneen
or Company III. Both these men were
sent to the division hospital from this
