PLANS TO IMPROVE
TRACK ATHLETICS

New York.-Everett Brown, the new
president of the Amateur Athletic as
sociation has appointed his full list
Of committees will start for his
home in Chicago in few days. Am
ong the important changes in the
rules to govern athletic contests in fu-
ture, as announced by President
Brown, is one that athletes competing
in running races Of more than five
miles must first undergo physical
examination.
Another rule declares that in hur-
die races no hurdle shall be allowed
unless the hurdlers remain standing
after the competitor has cleared
them, and any competitor knocking
down three or more hurdles shall be
disqualified. Heretofore it has been
necessary for a hurdier to clear all
the hurdles in order to be credited
with a record. A special committee
has been appointed to design rules
for the safeguarding of hammer
throwing.

dated the settlement Of this commu-
nifty by the white man, when the High
Rock spring was only bubbling
springlet, drunk at first by the Indians
as fresh water spring. Finding that
their health was improved by the wa
ter, they bethought them that It must
have medicinal qualities, and from
that time all sick Indians were brought
to High Rock spring for the healing
OF their Ills. The outward and visi.

was the deposit Of the salts Of the
water about the spring in the form Of
cone, called tufa, which still exists
and from which 1t received It's name
and through and over which the water
bubbles to this day
In 1900 the Congress spring was dis
covered and became renowned the
world over as saline cathartic. This,
combined with the sulphurous iron
water Of the Putnam spring, made
Saratoga Springs famous as the lead
ing health resort of the United States.
The remainder Of the thirty-five min
eral springs were discovered from time
to time, and all have a wide therapeu-
tic application In the treatment of al
most all chronic diseases and are d.
vided into four groups according to
their component parts. These groups
are: First, sodic, muriated, alkaline.

This mental disturbance liz often
caused by the habit OF taking things

we see people who take life too seri-

car and tries to keep from running
over people, but also feels tremendous
anxiety and responsibility about the
motive power.
