THE ART OF BOXING.

In the days of the ancient Greeks.
admittedly the most athletic people of
the world, judged by their ancient
status. boxing was not only one of the
most important features of the gymna-
stun but accorded high place in their
athletic carnivals. To most minds in
a mere contest of Drawn versus Drawn
there is little or no pleasure. but, as
with the highly civilized Greeks. the
meeting of skillful opponents. trained
to the pink of physical manliness, flesh
like marble. legs hard and yet with the
spry grace OF dancing-master. the
consummate art and skill OF the attack
and defense. the perfect accord and
control of every movement, compares
with the strife OF mettled racers. or the
battle of well-matched oarsmen. Such
a contest takes place on Friday next
between Martin Denny and Armstrong:
the sanction of the authorities, the aim
of the promoters, the Oceanic Athletic
Club, assuring a purely scientific con
test where trained skill and good gen.
eralship will win the laurels accorded
TO the more skilful.

Western Scientists Meet in Colorado to Dis
cuss Threatened Grasshopper Invasion
Fear Trouble Next Year.

Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 15.-Prof. Law
renee Bruner, the entomologist of the
Nebraska state university, has re-
turned from Colorado, where he went
in conference with the entomologists
of Kansas and Colorado to discuss the
threatened grasshopper invasion and
promote measures for the destruction
of the pest. Prof, Bruner says that it
is not so much this years crop as next
years that must be guarded against
since the pests will probably increase
in untold millions and become a real
menace to vegetation in western
Nebraska, eastern Colorado, and west
ern Kansas. The conference deter
mined upon the incubation of large
number of hoppers in the manner found
so effective in dealing with chinch
bugs-that is, by placing some of the
fungus of the coIhhelds that prove
dangerous to insect life in the form of
spreading blood poison under the wings
of many grasshoppers and turning them
loose in the fields where the pests are
the most numerous.
