Straight Right Lead to Face OF Body

Straight Right Lead to Face or Houy'
 A straight right hand lead to the face or body is very hard to evade when de- livered accurately In regard to strengthening the arm the same pre- cautions should be observed as in lead ing with the left. This blow when sent to the heart is often used in following up straight left to the face. Peter Jackson used 1t in practically all of his big battles. By sending the blow to the body you can attain greater accuracy than by sending it to the head, for you thus have a larger space on which to land and shorter distance to send the fist t.'E

Straight Left Blow to Fac

Straight Left Blow to Face.
 ! Tn executing the Fundamental boxing blow--the straight left hand punch to the face-great care should be taken to extend the arm to its full length, thus getting the entire benefit of your reach. A mans reach, if it be long, is a decid- ed advantage, and no one should fail to derive from 1t the fullest possible bene- fit. If a mans reach is short, he can partially overcome it by dropping the shoulder forward as he strikes, adding from two to three inches to the eXten- sion. The straightening of the arm si- multaneously with a step in also gives more snap and force to the punch.
 Do not fall to turn the head to the right, dropping the chin, while deliv- ering this blow. The chin should all most always be kept well down while boxing. This position protects the throat and lessens the bad effects of many blows to the head.

crease the length of your reach, which gives the counter dangerous force. If your antagonist is wary, he will block your counterFhy bringing sap his, right, stopping your fist in, his opened palm or showing 1t outside. By drawing his chin down behind his right hand he will guard himself perfectly from the hook.
 At the conclusion of this blow and counter the man receiving the original lead will be5in, the better position to make the next lead. his left hand nat urally being near his opponents face and his right drawn back close to his stomach, from whence he can send 1t over to the face or the body as his combatant draws back. If the oppo- nent springs quickly back, however, he will avoid both the right and the left. This exchange of punches is of fre- quent occurrence in boxing, and every glove manipulator should take care that he understands clearly the details of the lead, the guard, the counter and the recovery involved. 5a,s @5GeT Crouchfng md Sending, Straight
 Left to Body.
 By working in crouch when leading with the left a terrific blow. can be sent to the body, and the beauty of this blow consists in it's being absolutely safe for the attacker when properly delivered,
 To land this blow you must feint your opponent into a lead with his left, and as he does so step in and crouch, turning your head and body to the right, driving your left straight from the shoulder, using the full force of the shoulder and back muscles and the mo- mentum of the body. Be sure to keep | the head well down to the right behind | the left shoulder. exposing to your op- ponent nothing more than the back of | your head. Place the right hand over l the pit of the stomach ready for action. | If your left lead takes the desired ef- | feet, follow it up immediately with your right hand, which you can send either to the body or to the head with sure knockout impetus. To land the right on the body, turn facing your l opponent squarely by pivoting on the ball of your right foot. Do not straight en more than half out of the crouch or | else you will sacrifice a great deal of | your power. In sending the right to ] the face straighten up with arm as it goes over, making one continuous move of the whole blow. By striking on ei- ther side of the chin knockout is cer- tain to result. In delivering either one of these right hand blows draw the left back. throwing the forearm across your effectual guard.

ged manhood which could rise to N sublime heights that "The Manx-
 man" first attracted the deep in- terest of the English speaking world. Pete Quilliam became a character who made hundreds of thousands of friends because out of his troubled boyhood and lowly birth came a nobility that put those of higher station to shame. In power and depth the novel Is one of the meat notable of modern days. Hall Caine has since written "The Chris tian' and "The Eternal City" but nei- ther in vital interest eXcels the novel which first introduced the author to in- ternational fame. a~
 In the book much is told of the boy hood of Pete, In writing the play MT. Caine and Wilson Barrett, who collab- orated with him, took the character at the dramatic moment when he had de- cided to declare his love for Kate Cre- geen. daughter of Caesar Cregeen, the religious innkeeper, who had long been his master. This incident in reality Is the beginning of the story Which MT. Caine set out to tell.
 Pete in his honest simplicity calls upon Philip Christian, his lifelong friend, to intercede for him with Cesar. He has not realized that Kate has learned to think much of this friend, who in birth and prospects is so much above either of them, and that Philip has looked with great favor on the innkeeper's daughter. Philip, however, has ambitions that forbid such a mar riage and therefore pleads for Pete. Cesar replies by turning Pete from the inn, but Kate, piqued at the action of Philip, sends him away to seek fortune in. happy frame of mind because she promises to marry him on his return.

BUSINESS IS GOOD.


| New York. Aug. 1.--R. @. Dun & Co. q
Weekly Review Of Trade says:
Further evidence of the solid basis
upon which legitimate trade is estab-
lished has been furnished by the equa-
nimity with which commercial and
financial institutions regard the recent
speculative collapse. Much more harm
has been done to the country's manu-
features and trade by the inflated
prices Of cotton than by the depression
IN stocks. Reports are almost unani-
nous as to the heavy distribution of
merchandise. and this is shown Stats
tically by the Increase in railway earn
ings thus far reported for July, 1875
per cent. over last years, and 23.1 per
cent. above 1901.
AS rule retail trade In summer
fabrics has continued heavy. and job
bers report fall business opening well.
Labor is well employed throughout the
country except where voluntarily idle.
Agricultural news Is favorable. Foreign
trade is maintained, both exports and
imports from this city showing gains
over the corresponding week last year.
Moderate Improvement is noted In the
tone of the iron and steel industry.
There Is striking absence of urgent or
ders, however, especially In lines out
side Of railway equipment There is
less anxiety regarding the danger of
over-production, although dozens Of new
blast furnaces are In course of construc-
ton, and an active capacity of 20,000,-
600 tons annually Is now assured.
Buyers are numerous in the leading
markets. taking wooden goods freely,
and showing a preference for the
fancy grades. Footwear factories are
crowded with work. orders coming in
briskly for fall goods, and western job
bers have placed additional contracts
for next spring.
Failures this week were 100 in the
United States, against 1913 last year, and
10 in Canada, compared with IS year
ago.
Bradstreet's says: Weather, crop and
trade conditions are seasonably favor
able, though irregularity and weakness
In some staple prices reflect readjust-
ments Of consumption to enlarged pro-
duction. Copious rains In the corn belt
and in the western cotton region have
removed some Of the uneasiness exist
Ing as to the outturn of these two great
crops, and despite this backwardness
the outlook for general trade has been
helped.
A favorable feature this week is the
reported Improvement in foreign de-
mand for our breadstuffs, considerable
quantities Of new wheat and old corn
being reported taken. Accompanying
this has been an improvement in the
outside interest In the cereal markets.
Worlds stocks show little or no change
for the week.
