COACHED BY SISTER.
Little Ethel Rothwell Trained
"Young Corbett" for Ring.
Rirst Champion PuEiIIst Who owes
All His skin, Fame and PrOwezs
TO the Clever Advice of
Little Woman.

"Young COrbett," the champion
lightweight pugilist Of the world,
owes his supremacy TO a woman.
Not in the ordinary romantic sense.
Young Corbett'S athletic greatness has
No sentimental. basis. On the contrary,
in the most litera, sense of the words.
Young Corbett," otherwise William
ROthweu, has been eXpertly coached
fer his great part by his younger sis
ter.
Plainly, therefore. gSry ought 10
fall where glory is due. Miss Ethel
ROthweL, who is Il in the matter Of
years, but infinitely more mature in
the matter of common sense, ought TO
have al least as much credit as the
TRAINERS" Of other great fighters have
had. Indeed, if the extent Of the serV-
ice ske has rendered her brother were
widely known. Miss Ethel, who is now
the most domestic and retiring Of
misses, would be in demand as an eX-
pert authority by HghJ-weights the
world over.
As a coach" Ethel was born, not
made. In her well-baIanced little head
the principles Of successful prize-fght
ing were proyidentially innate. Or
this at least was inferred by the rep
resentatiye of the New York World
who called upon her at her home in
Denver.
II is useless 10 deny, though this is
incidental. that Miss Ethel is eXcep-
tiOnally attractive. She is a yivacious
red-cheeked young lady, with deep blue
eyes and two heavy braids of auburn
hair.
The main point is that in build she
greatly resembles the champion.

Young ladies who may be moved TO
emulate her may be interested to know
that the Denver Diana is only four feet
eleven inches tall. She is, however, eX-
traordinarily muscular with no extra
pounds. Her exact measurements are
as follows: Forearm. 5 inches; biceps,
inches; wrist, inches; calf, Il
inches; thigh, 1919 inches; waist, IS
inches; neck, 13 inches; chest, 80
inches; reach, 60 inches.
Now, in addition TO her muscle and
pretty face. Miss Ethe. is a young LADY
of marked initiative. When her stal-
wart young brother confded 10 her
quite in secret his Pugilistic ambitions
she said 10 him:
"Lis,cr 10 me, WIZ. If you want to
be fighter, skip rope. 1t Will help
your wind and it Will make your feet
nimble."
The budding champion laughed.
Whereupon his sister explained fur
ther and he took her advice. This was
two years ago. To-day he is the cham
piou. This illustrates the remarkable
sagacity Of woman.
Having become an expert rope
skipper and demonstrated the wisdom
Of the exercise to his own satisfaction,
young Mr.. Rothweu needed no persua-
sion TO adopt the next piece of ad
vice his sister gave him.
This was that he should try saw
ing wood. In the back yard of the
Rothweu house there is always an
enormous stack of logs and a large
saw. She advised him TO saw with his
right hand for Is or 20 minutes and
then do the same with his left. This
was o help him puncher. She was
always present to see that he did it
well.
If he grew tired she still kept him
al it.
Before entering battle Young Cor
bett was coached at home or at his
training quarters by this sister. At
almost every fight she accompanied
him as far as The amphitheater. when
she would go home and await the re-
suit Of his encounter. Her advice was
always: Keep cool and let the other
fellow do the worrying"
She figured that he would have bet
ter show Of winning by Sidestepping
his opponent and delivering his ia
nous punches to the right or left jaw.
1t was seen about two years ago that
the kid" changed his tactics in the
ring. and IL was at his sisters advice
that he did so.

WATERLOO MONUMENT.
Site of NapoIeOn's Downfall to he
Marked by Sculpture Of q GiGaR-
tie Dying Eagle.

France has at last, after a lapse of
Sc years. decided to mark the site of
Napoleon's downfall. Waterloo is to
have a monument.
A short time ago NJ. Henri Hous-
saye, an eminent historian and noted
member of the French academy, to-
gether with Count de Mautoy and NJ.
Gustave Larroumet, bought a plot
of land at the junction of the high
road from Brussels, and that from
Planchenoit near the famous farm
of La Belle Alliance, which was the
center Of Napoleon's position in the
great battle.
This ground has been offered to
the military society La Sabretaehe," "

which has opened a subscription for
the erection of a monument. Already
the response has been so generous
that NJ. Jean Leon Gerome, the illus
trious French sculptor and artist, has
been given carte blanche, the only
command issued being that the me-
mortal must be of the finest mate
rials.
He has promised il for the early
part of 1902, but the unveiling will
not take place until the spring days
come and the weather is warm
enough TO permit of a lengthy and
elaborate ceremony.
The monument is a striking piece
of work. The principal figure rep
resents a dying eagle with one wing
broken and dropping by its side, and
the other extended but pierced with
bullets; one claw firmly grasps the
French flag, while with the other the
mortaIy wounded bird defends the
colors on which are inscribed the
words: "AusterlitZ" and "Eylau."
The eagle is of bronze, and stands
on a huge bowlder of marble over
which the flag droops on one side,
and on the other will be carved an
inscription, the exact text of which
has not yet been decided upon, but
it will contain the date of the battle
Of Waterloo, and in a few brief sen
tences tell the results of the strife
and also state that the monument
is lovingly dedicated to the greatest
general France had and TO the noble
men who so courageously and gal
lantly followed their leader.
The eagle measures two meters in
height, and the extending wing three
meters. 25. The entire monument
with pedestal and bronze, is Is me-
ters high and is very impressive.

a question; the solution of which
interests the discriminating cigar

Of his expenditure. In calling

Cigar we have endeavored to solve

The Cabrados are made Cf the
broken leaves of Havana tobacco
of the same quality as the more
perfect leaves, but which can be
bought for considerably less
money. The manufacturers are
compelled to buy these from
the Cuban planters, and cannot
use them in the manufacture
of high price cigars. Consequent
ly they utilize this material for
cigar which costs the smoker
. cents each. and enables him to
obtain an enjoyable smoke, which
will at times take the place of
an expensive cigar. For sale by

EXERCISE FOR BODILY ILLS.
A New Form OF Treatment frOm
Which Wonderful Results in
Healing Are Achieved.

GymnaStic exercises as cure for spe.
cial bodily deformities are being more
Ind more prescribed by New York doc
tors, and there is an increasing class
of persons, usually women, who under
take to instruct the patient as to the
proper method of taking such exer>
cises.
Defects of the feet and ankles, curva
ture of the spine, hollow chest, asym.
metry of the shoulders, are all treated
in this fashion and plaster jackets and
elastic stockings are giving way before
this newer method of dealing with
physical deformities. nmany schools
special curative exercises are provided
for individual children. A physician in
spects the little ones from time to
time to determine what special exer-
cises they need, and to note the effect
of exercises already tried.
Marvellous results have thus been
obtained with MANNED and deformed
children, reports the New York Sun.
An account of some such would read
like the testimonials issued by patent
cure-alls. Even when cure has been
found impossible the effect of system
attic special gymnastics is astonishing,
as shown in the increased strength and
activity of the little patients. 1t is
even believed that such exercises have
an important influence on the minds
Of children mentally defective.
In some instances the exercises are
| so simple that after a little instruc.
tion patient or even child can SUI
perintend them. In other cases the
| exercises have to be performed in a
gymnasium, and in answer to the grow

A physician usually recommends some
gymnasium, with which he is ac-

close relations with the physicians
Gymnastic exercises are prescribed
! just as medicines are, and the patient
goes with the prescription to the gym
