A FAMOUS OLD HUNTER DEAD.
Parmly Killed 5000 Deer, 400 Bears and
Much Other Game in His Long Career.

CORNING, Y. ", July 1s-Isaac Parmly,
the last Of a group of famous hunters,
trappers and woodsmen of northern PENN
sylvania who settled in that region while
it was yet an unbroken Wilderness died at
Grassy Island recently aged 90. He was a
hunter while elk, wolves and panthers were
yet plentiful in the Pennsylvania forests.
In statement made by him few years ago
he said he had killed AZ elk, 80 panthers,
more wolves than he could remember, 400
bears and more than 5000 deer, all on the
watersheds OF the Allegheny and S,lsQu"-
hanna.
Among the adventures in the woods hat
he was fond OF relating was regular
Israel Putnam experience with wolves.
be surprised two wolves one day devour-
ing deer he had killed, pursued them into
cave. shot one and killed the other with
knife after a desperate fight.
At ore period in the early career OK
Parmly as hunter wolves We're such pert
to the settlements that the COMMISSIONER
Of Mexican county, Pa, placed bounty u
S25 scalp on them. Parmly, the Nelson's,
Lenos Cowley, the Parkers, George Rae
and others OF the pioneer hunters and trap
pers returned so many wolf scalps to the
treasury in the first year that payments
on them exhausted the funds. and the neat
year the county had to issue scrip TO meet tho
demands Of the wolf slayerS. The bounty
was then reduced TO IS TO save the couutys
credit, and for years wolf scrip was part
OF the recognized currency of that region
Of the State.
Parmly was in at the death, forty years
ago, OF the last elk in Pennsylvania, which
was followed from Flag Swamp in Elm
county. to the headwaters Of tho Clarion
River, and killed there by Parmy. Indian

when the bath has been taken, there comes
a rubbing with witch hazel, for the athlete
must not let herself get stiff or tired.
Those who can bear glycerine on the
skin will fnd that il makes a refreshing
material for body massage. II should not
be used clear, but mixed with rose water,
in sufficient quantity to make nice lotion

body and especially into the limbs that
were exercised during the gymnastlc

The trained all-around athletic girl,
after she has jumped her hurdles, run her

the massage with rose water and glycerlne

or witch hazel and glycerine. There are
also, cold creams which can be 'hlnneo

Let 1t stand two weeks and add to the bath
water.
The woman Or girl who lis Just beginning
10 take course OF exercise will very often
be so stiff and sore in her muscles as 10 be
nearly III; and this unpleasant condition
will keep her from exercising again. 1t
not infrequently happens that, after fifteen
minutes Of exercise, she will feel herself
strained, and that, the following day. she
will scarcely be able TO walk.
This is due, first, to the taking OF too
violent exercise at first; second, to i'm
proper care after the exercise. and, third.
to the fact that the woman was In no con-
dition to begin taking the gymnastic ex-
ercises.
Before you exercise you must be sure
that you have just the right amount OF
food in the stomach. There must not be
any undigested food, for one cannot eyer
else on full stomach, nor must the stomach
be empty to the point Of goneness. One
should wait about an hour after meal.
when the food, If Of the proper kind, will be
at Just about the right stage of digestion.
Then the woman who takes up athletics
must be sure that she is in good condition
hygenically. The body must be thoroughly

cleansed az to its pores, and ii must not
be chilled nor overneated.
II possible, the clothing should be very
loose, and a gymnasium suit should be worn,
for then there is the right amount of VEN
, tiiaton. The girl who starts in to do GYM
nastie exercises in her street dress, tight
around the waist, will surely come to grief,
for she will strain her muscles and injure
herself, causing great deal more damage
than she thinks is possible.
The dishpan exercises are recommended
for those matrons who have grown too
stout. The exercises will give them loose,
full movement of the arms, while the lower
limbs will also benefit by them.
The woman who cannot stoop to pick
up book; the girl who gets red in the face
when she tries to rescue her fan from the
floor; the girl or woman who could not pick
a pin Off the floor without doubling up
and bending the knees, should all start in
on the dishpan exercise, for it Is a quick
and easy road TO grace.
There have been various implements
suggested for the improvement of the
bachelor girl from an athletic point of
view but there are very few that offer 80
tempting possibilities as the dishpan, and
tho girl bachelor who washes her own
dishes will soon get into the habit Of be-
slowing a kick or two upon the pan at the
conclusion of the work, and of lifting it up
and down above her head just for the sake
of exercise,
Those women who manipulate chatting
dish and handle the delicate china after
the meal whose blue plates. cups and
saucers are far too precious to be en-
trusted TO the kitchen tray, can practice
the dishpan exercises and can use for this
purpose the little dishpan which now &C.
companies every chatting dish.
If the dishpan be a silver one, as 80 many
dishpans are nowadays, why SO much the
better, for there will be Just 80 much more
temptation to practise with it, and the
athletes will become perfect lust so much
the sooner from the delight of handling
the silver pan.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1903-07-19

nor less than an ordinary dishpan. A
new dishpan is the pleasantest and the
prettiest to handle, but a half-worn one
pan one that can no longer go to the
thinkers to be mended.
1t makes no difference as long as the
weight is there and the shape. The dish
pan is good implement for exercise for
several reasons. First, it is large without
being heavy. Second. it has comfortable
handles, by which the girl bachelor can
take hold of it. Third, it is easily lifted,
and while light it is excellent in shape,
SO that it balances itself, thus making an
ideal implement for daily practice.
Dishpan exercises should be practised
to music il possible and the girl bachelor
can impress her sisters into tho service
If she will, Perhaps she has an obliging
friend who will play the piano, and to its
marching time she will prance up and down
the room, lifting her feet high and going
through the dishpan movements.
She should begin by grasping the dish
pan with both hands and lifting il high
over her head. She should do this ten
times.
Then she can hold it out in front Of her
and bring it back again. out and back, until
lhe has performed this motion ten times.
Then she can lower it in front of her, going
through these gymnastic exercises over
and over again.
The exercises with the feet are in
tercsting. because they are more difficult
The dshpan is held out at arms length
and is then kicked by the one who
holds it.
1t is not difficult feat to hold out the
pan and kick it, but little by little the pan
should be lifted and, the girl who holds it
must keep on kicking. higher and higher.
until she has raised 1t as high as her head.
In the right kind of costume it is not hard
to kick IA high as your head and the girl
athlete will soon be able to do this.
The arms and the fingers and all the
muscles Of the shoulders can be exercised
by drumming. Let the pan be held ont
and let the girl drum upon it with the
knuckles.
Then let her drum on it with her fingers,
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1903-07-19

her knuckes and her wrists and let her
keep on drumming until her arm is tired.
Now, If she will reverse hands and will
drum with the other hand she will succeed
in getting the right amount of exercise
out Of the pan.
A girl can get better exercise, athlet-
cally speaking, with this implement than
she could with dumbbells, for il is lighter
and it gives a broader reach for the arms.
and consequently a better play for the
muscles.

MAYOR MULVIHILL

Appeared at the Capitol-Abstract of
 His Statement.
 Hartford, May 20.-Mayor Mulvihill of Bridgeport appeared before the com- mittee on cities and boroughs this morn ing and vigorously opposed the bill re- strlcting the appointing powers of the mayor of that city.
 The mayor declared that he did not care what became of the measure, but his good name and character had been assailed and he was present to defend them.
 He continued: The action which I took on Sunday during the rioting in our city has been criticised and my character assailed."
 Mayor Mulvihill proceeded: My house is within 200 feet of where the trouble occurred. I heard the rioting and went out at the risk of my life to prevent further trouble and preserve the peace. If I had stayed home I would have been accused of cowardice.
 ''The object Of this bill is to hold cer- tain commissioners in office, some of whom have not attended meeting in a year.
 This is slap at labor through me. I am satisfied that the people of Bridge port will rebuke the measure and the people who brought it, and that it will react upon them"

ENTERTAINMENTS.
Hyperion Theater.

The Bostonians in their magnificent production of Robin Hood" packed the Academy of Music, New York, to the doors at every performance. It was question of standing room only every night, and on many occasions the num- Der of people unable to get admission would have filled an average New York theater.
 H. c. Barnabee and W. H. MacDon- ald are the particular stars of the or ganization, which is reported finer this season even than the original cast of Robin Hood" The scenic display is beautiful in the extreme; no lovelier settings have been seen on any stage than the pictures of Sherwood Forest, with it's ever varying lights The gath ering of Robin Hoods" famous arch CTS. the company of the kings men and the gorgeous costuming of the bridal party give exquisite coloring to the en- sembles.
 There is comedy galore and a story of love and intrigue delightfully."- told. The new Robin Hood" is a splendid fellow-more fascinating than ever. The Bostonians' engagement at the New York Academy of Music was the most successful of the organizations career. It is a fact that existing engagements here and elsewhere prevented this bril- liant company staying all season in New York; which it could easily have done to big business, but the touring contracts could not be broken. It will be seen at the Hyperion tomorrow and Saturday nights and at the matinee on Saturday, On Saturday night the se- quel to, Robin Hood" Maid Marian D will be sung.
 Seat sale now open. Prices: Night, s1.50, s1 and 75 cents; matinee, $1, 75 cents and 50 cents.

Grand Opera House.

It is simply in evidence that from the rise of the curtain on the first act until it's final fall in the fourth one there is no Tagging of interest in "A Wife's Se- cret," William T. Keogh's new produc- ton, which comes to the Grand Opera house tonight and tomorrow and Sat urday nights. The play, written by Hal Reid, who has, by the way, never been known to write a failure, is found- ed upon an actual occurrence, with a perfect powerful plot that one can fol- low with absorbing interest There are four striking and novel scenes, and they are admirably mounted in every instance especially that of the third act showing the belfry of the church, high above the housetops This act is an exact reproduction of Trinity church tower in Boston. This will be interest," ing to those who have never been in the bell loft of some of our finest churches, as they can plainly see how the big chimes are hung and operated. It is from this belfry, high up in the air, that the wife, in her wild attempt to es- cape the man who would ruin her, grasps one of the big bell ropes and, without stopping to consider it's length, leaps from the window. How she is saved by her husband and how the vil- lain is thwarted is for the interested patron to go and see. An especially clever company has been engaged, in- cluding the two well-known favorites, Hal Reid and Bertha Bella Westbrooke. There will be the regular matinee Sat urday.
