AZ to any other misconduct on the part
of young ladies, it is a matter of rumor
that some two or three young ladies in

Their young gentlemen associates.
Whether there is any ground for these
insnations is a matter whiccl would re-

no proceeding against any young ladies
Of Bristol for misconduct except the two
who were expelled from school.

To The Great Progress in Track and
Field Equipments are Lower
Records Due.

No man IN America today has a wider
experience in athletic matters than A 6.
Spaltiing Ills connection with track and
Held sports and with open air exercise of
al kinds dates back more than thirty
years; consequently his views on the
great advance III athletic records should
be of exceptional interest at the present
moment.
Mr. spalding is not a firm believer in
the superiority OF the men OF to-day over
those Of generation ago, but attributes
The seeming improvement to better faci-
lilies and more scientific apparatus Tor
athletic performances. Speaking of the
ap-to-date equipments Of the athlete, MIR.
Spalding said:
lit is little wonder that these latter
day records are far ahead OF those OF q
quarter Of a century ago. remember
the time when spiked shoe was a thing
unknown, and sprinters and distance
men wore all sorts Of foot-sear. When
Deertoot went to England. in the carly
sixties. he ran IN his native mocassins.
and would like TO know how much fast
sr hs could move were he shod In pair

WATER COLOR itXHIHIT.
Most Attractive Disniay at Miller and


i,h ads.
The water-color exhibit at Miller &
Rhoads' of the work of Miss A NJ ca
tello highly merits the attention it has
received during the past week from a
large number Of visitors and purchasers
An inspection of this especially atu,ac-
tive original work is rendered Interesting
by the presence of Miss Costello. the ar
fist. who very pleasingly describes and
locates the different scenes and views
which she has so tastcfuly transferred to
the canvas.
One is struck with the very reasonable
figures at which these paintings are being
sold-when compared with the prices
which work of this character usually
brings. they are seen to be very low, in
deed.
Two excellent pictures of the Natural
Bridge, in RockDridge county at once
catch the eye of Nirginians: and in them
we have measure of the skill and
faithfulness with which the other scenes
have been reproduced.
The water-SceneS are we'll executed the
pictures OF views on Lake George and of
Mackinaw Island being peculiarly real
istc and true to nature.
Among the historical paintings, pos
sibly that OF the Old Homestead, which
was the birthplace of Whittier, calls for
especial mention. New Year Haven is a
cave, about which has fingered the tradi-
ton that here the judges of King
Charles, or the Regicides, as they were
called, remained hidden for some time,
and We're secretly fed by friends from
time to time. as it was possible to reach
them without detection. Miss Costello
has very attractively sketched this in
terestinS locality.
a visit to The store of Miller & Rhoads
and to the collection of Miss Costello will
richly repay any for the trouble taken.
The collection Is displayed for the inspec-
ton and pleasure of all, whether intend-
ing purchasers or not. and those who are
interested in art and painting will find
a half-hour of real pleasure In store for
them when they have opportunity to visit
this attractive collection OF paint1n1a

of spiked shoes Of the 1901 pattern. I
think it was in 1876 that the late Father
Bill! Curtis appeared in the athletic
championships wearing a pair of spiked
shoes. They were the first seen in Aneri-
ca, and created such a sensation that
the amateur authorities contemplated
passing 4 rule to oebar such freakish aids
being further used by competitors. The
majority OF the men in those days ran
either barefooted of in discarded street.
shoes and thctr records should bear no
comparison with the men who now bound
along III s7ove-IittinE shoes of the finest
kangaroo leather, and with steel spikes
firmly riyeted
Another branch of track athletics in
which the improved record is due to the
improved apparatus is hurdle racing
IN oioen times all sorts of obstacles were
utiilzed i have seen crow-bars sections
OF iron railing and cross-heams go to
make the hurdle. and. OF course. invaria-
bly, endangered the neck or limbs of the
9irdle:- To-day the athlete sldes over
his own individual hurdle. which by the
Way, can be used for the high or low
event by means OF folding slide.
But it is in the field events that the
apparatus has worked the greatest
change. No man will deny that an ath-
lete can jump further of board take-off
nowadays than he could when the ath-
letes jumped off the turf or wherever the
old upriskts CHANGED to be placed. The
same change applies TO the pole vault.
'Of all the branches of athletics the
improvement IN the weight throwing re-
cords is due most to the new missiles now
used.
Il am inclined to think. therefore. that
the records now established for athletic
performances owe more to the improve
ments In athletic appliances and meth
DDS than to any actual superiority of the
contestants themselves over the athletes
of q generation ago"

THE MARRIAGE MECCA

Rev. \. II. Burroughs, the record break
in matrimonial parSOn of the South, who
established d mecca in Bristol on August
Il, 1885, had hoped to round out q thou
sand marriages with the century, but in
this he was slightly disappointed. The
last couple to come to his mecca during
the old century came on the last day of
the year and made the 9I4th since the
establishment OF his mecca for clipping
couples. 1t has more than once happened
that he has married as many as six cou-
pies in q single day, and on one or two
occasions he has married as many at one
time and with the same ceremony. Most
OF the couples who have sought the mar
