ALL. ROUND CHAMPIONS.

This years individual all-round ath-
Ietlc championship will be held as US
ual on July at Bergen Point under
,he auspices OF the New Jersey Ath-
letic club. No men as yet have an
nounced their intention to train for
It, although several entries will doubt
less be made. IL is singular thing
that within a ear two winners OF the
all-round have died-John Cosgroye
pf Albany and Alexander Jordan Of
this city. Mr. Cosgrove died from IT,
results or an appendicitis operation,
and Mr. Jordan succumbed to trouble
with the heart and lungs The all
round is one of the severest competi-
tions ever attempted by athletes, and
the strain on a winner in the past has
invariably been terrific Malcolm
Ford was one of the very few men who
ever started on an all-round competi-
tion and finished comparatively fresh
and strong The all-round programme
consists of ten events, decided in this
order: 100 yards run, putting the
16-pound shot, running high jump,
half mile walk, throwing the 1G-pound
hammer, pole valIt, 120 yards hurdle
race, throwing tue 56-pound weight,
running broad jump and one mile run.
Under the existing system OF scoring,
which Is the best that has been devils
ed, man to qualify must equal the
following figures: 100 yards run
OLA 80; one mile run. 1880; half mile
walk, 6:23; 120yard hurdle race
O;22 2-5; running high jump, 3 feet 8
inches; running broad jump, 10 feet
inch; pole vault, feet inches; put
ing the lG-pound shot. 2G feet 2 inches
throwing the 1G-pound hammer, 81
feet. and throwing the 56-pound
weight, l5 feet The above perform
ances equalled gives man the mini
mum percentage; the maximum, which
| Is the best On record in every case
gives a competitor 900 points

sports that are fortunate in requiring

ARMY INCIDENTS.

with his bare hands, Private John
NJ. Jones, Of Battery /, regular army,
eXtinguished a fire in a smoldering bag
that contained fifty pounds OF powder
during the time the jubilee salute or
twenty-one guns was being fired at
Lime Point 1t all happened in an in
stant, but 1t was one of those brlet
periods of time that seem an age, and
that often make brave men grow gray.
The event came about in this way.
Lieut.. Charles w. Foster, of Battery l.,
stationed at Lime Point, was detailed
TO take charge of the firing Of the sa-
lutte from the Marin shore, and with
him were Sergt NJ. L. Mitchell and
Priyates Davis, DUNCAN, Seigle, Nor
ley. Winters the gunner, and Jones.
The squad loaded one of .he big 10
inch guns with so pounds OF black pow
der. The priming wire was driven
down the yent-hole, and the friction
primer put I'm place AT the signal the
gunner pulled the string The big gun
was silent Three times this was re-
peated, and the lieutenant came to the
conclusion that the vent hole had be-
come clogged He ordered the powder
charge, which was sewed up in a wool
en- bag. to be withdrawn. This was
done by screwing a worm, fastened 70
primer staff, into the bag and pull
ing the bag out This took the COM
bined strength Of Privates Davis, Dun
igau, Seigle and Morley, for the charge
had been rammed home hard.
As the bag OF powder dropped to
the ground every man turned pale in
the expectation of being blown into
| eternity the next moment. The last
primer had set the wooden bag on fir)
and in an instant the whole charge
| would explode With one bound Pri-
vate Jones was beside the smoldering
bag. and with his bare hands he rolled
and smothered the burning wool be-
fore it could ignite the powder, and tc
make sure he plastered some damp
earth into the singed edges.
The danger passed, the brave fellow
/ arose, stepped back to his place and
| touched his cap in salute to his superi'
/ or officer. His face was white, and
beads of perspiration stood out on his
forehead, but not with fear. The
| faces Of those he had saved were even
| whittier, and for a moment no one
spoke. Then all broke out in thanks
and praise for the noble act that haC
saved their lives, officers and private.

Illustrating the earlestness which
seizes men, even in sham battle. was
an incident which occurred near the
lower bridge In the engagement be-
tween the divided forces Of the New
York State militia. A lieutenant, with
a small detachment, had been sent out
20 do some Teconnoitering. A compa-
ny upon a hin top had seen the detach-
men and had fired upon it. The lieu
tenant was quite sure that such action
was not TO be expected. and he resent

standing near the lieutenant rushed
up to him as the first officer of higher
rank he could reach. With great in-
