THE STRONGEST COLLEGE.
Tests Being Made at the Present Time
to Discover the Most Athletic
Body of Students.

College men throughout the United
States have begun to take strength
tests for the purpose OF evolving the
institution which numbers in its ranks
the SO strongest men among American
colleges. This competition is unique
in intercolleg iate rivalry, as the ath-
letes do not meet in an actual contest
of strength. Each university sends
to committee the statistical records
of its so strongest men. and to the coli
lepe whose athletes make the highest
total is awarded the intercollegiate
champ ssesss ta-t-As
The tests by which the strength OF
the men is measured were devised by
DR.. Dudley "a. Sargent, Of Harvard.
There are seven tests, which respec-
lively record the strength Of the back,
the legs, the right grip, the left grip,
ability to dip" to push up'' and to
pull up, and finally the strength Of
lungs.
Atspresent Columbia holds the cham
pionship and expects to increase the
total of 5000 points made by her so
men last year.

BULL AND LION FIGHT
Brutal Combat Given in Arena at
Juarez, Mex, Before Big Crowd.
Lion Had Been Reared In Captivity
and Had to BE Goaded to Attack
His Big Foe-BulI Comes on
Victor.

The most bloody and brutal en-.
counter between beasts ever seen ID
this section Of the country took place
IN the. bull ring at Juarez, Mexico, the
other day between young Numidian
lion and q Salamanca bull. Three.
thousand persons, principally Ameri-
cans, witnessed the battle from the
grand stand which surrounds the huge
cage set up in the arena.
The fight lasted nearly an hour and
was finally stopped by the Mexican au-
thorities, who admit ted that their own
national sport of bull-fghting had
been outclassed in point Of brutality.
The bull was splendid specimen
and was courageous in the extreme
{ From the beginning he recognized in
the lion deadly enemy, and attacked
the king Of beasts readily and with,
great spirit.
The lion, which had been reared as q
pet, refused to fight at the outset, and
attempted to break through the bars
to seek refuge beside his keeper, who
stood without and pitilessly goaded
the beast with an iron bar, and poured
svitriol upon the lions body. Finally,
realizing that escape was hopeless, the
lion crouched for spring and launched
himself into the air, landing upon the
bulls back, and fastening his teeth in
the bovine's neck. His hold was in
secure and he was easily shaken off,
but the bull bled from number of
wounds &
The maddened bull attacked fercely
after that, driving the lion into his
corner, and goring him repeatedly.
The lion retaliated by Selling the
bulls nose. He lost his held and the
bull gored him repeatedly, breaking
his leg and causing him to roar with
pain.
At this juncture, while the excite
ment was at its height, the bugler en-
ployed by the mayor of Juarez, sound
ed a call for the combat to cease, and,
the lion, more dead than alive, was
dragged from the arena. His wounds,
it is said, will prove fat re bull
was game to the last. A 49, N ban
derilla. who was taking him from tho
arena. had narrow escape. ~
