TURNER'S, EXHIBITION.

Between three and four hundred
night to witness the exhibition of the
gymnasts under the direction of Adam
Rettig. 1t was wholesome. and in
teresting performance and afforded
much pleasure for the friends and rel
atives of the Turner's who were pres
ent. The exercises opened with a
march. accompanied by martial strains
from the City Union orchestra under
George Whitney. This was followed
by drills and floor work, tricks on the
parallel bars, pole climbing. high
jumping and other branches of mus
Gle building work There were three
departments-th girls class, the boys
class and the young mems class. The
little boys were one and all very much
alive, fact which they frequently
signified by their lusty yells of ap-
proval or disapproval of the feats of
their contemporaries. and by their un-
failing eagerness to follow the leader
everywhere. The girls were spright-
ly and graceful and demonstrated
clearly the benefits that come to those
who take physical culture exercises.
The young men were strong and man
ly in appearance and gave very cred
liable performances on the apparatus.
AS long as Adam Rettig and the Turn
ers continue to conduct gymnasium
in this city, they may well be looked
upon as public benefactors.
After the program. which ended
past ten O'Clock. the hall was given
over TO the dancing. This lasted un
til 12 and was heartily enjoyed.

A Puzzlinq Calculation.

We all like to puzzle our brain over
things which give certain and strange
results, but which we cannot explain.
Here's puzzle that puzzles every
body: Take the number of your liv-
ing brothers, double the amount, add
to it three, multiply the result by five,
add to it the number of living sis
ters, multiply the result by ten, add
to it the number of deaths of broth
ers and sisters, subtract $50 from the
result The right-hand figure will be
the number of deaths. the middle
figure the number of living sisters
and the left the number of living
brothers.-Canton Saturday Roller.
