ATHLETICS BOOMS
ON FOREIGN SOIL
Great Interest Awakening, ESpe-

ropean Countries

NEW YORK, Dec. 24-Thero is no doubt
that foreign countries are building n great
interest in athletics. especially the northern
nations Of Europe. and there is bound to he
some stout opposition at Stockholm two years
from now in the olympic Eamos. In meet
ing this fall given by the Pan-savc club at
Sofia, Bulgaria, many as 5000 athletes par
ticipated The biggest meet in America never
attracted a tenth of that number in individual
entries A. T. Brooks n member OF the New
York \. c. happened to be present at this
meeting and in a letter he says in part:
'"To this meeting came athletes from nearly
all the Slavic CountTics-Russians, BulgariRns,
Servians Roumanians and Turks-to total
number OF more than 5000. These athletes ar
rived from their various home cities headed
by bands all marching in military order from
the railway station to the army barracks
which were in encampmcnt in the country.
There were men, youths and boys ot all ages
ana even few women and girls among tho
clubs.
"a great amphtheater. which was erected
for the occasion on the outskirts OF the city,
accommodated spectators numbering more than
50 600 Prizes duly awarded 10 the DeSt

MEETINGS HELD BEFORE
"Those meetings have been held before, but
this was tho most important one and they
are to be carried on each year in the future,
with the idea OF promoting n closer brother
hood among tho Slavic nations. There is little
question also but that these meetings and tho
Pan-Savc scientific parliament which was
held in Sofia at the same time, had a political
influence as well, and that these meetings
are held to n certain extent under the cover
of athletic and scientific events, while trying
to work up a pro-Slaylc feeling throughout
that part OF the world
THE 5000 athletes were almost evenly d.
vidci, 2Jo0 being Roumanians and the re-
mainder from other slavic states. The Bull
carlan athletes are called Yunaks, and tho
Bohemians are called Sokois Galcons). 1t was
a very interesting surprise to the few for
eiencrs there 10 find that these far eastern
people were such thoroughly trained athletes
and were able to perform in almost every
field Of contest, showing enormous strength,
agility, dextcrty and endurance"

GREAT LAKES YACHTSMEN
TALKlNGOF BIG RACES

ROCHESTER,. y. Y, Dec. 4-Yachtsmen
Of the Great Lakes beginning TO talk about
international races. These tars have two i'm
portant cups and indications point toward A
contest for at least one Of these mugs next
summer II there Is a race II will in all
probability be for the Fisher cup, now held
by the Royal Canadian Yacht club. The chal
longing club will be the Rochester Yacht club
and Seneca Will be named as the challenging
boat Although the challenge has not as yet
been sent. the matter brought up recently
by Eric Moore. owner OF Seneca, who offered
the boat Internationally to the club,
CANADA'S CUP TROPHY
The Canada's cup is the other trophy that
is OF exceptional Importance 60 the Great
Lakes yachtmen. The prize is now held by
the Rochester Yacht club and there Is some
talk OF a race for the cup during the sum
mer NJ 1912. However before there can be
leans or the Canadians must change their pres
ent attitude. The Canadians demand that
only boats regularly owned on fresh water
shall he allowed TO compete In races for tho
cup. 1t Is the contention OF the Americans
that any boat complying with the building
restrictions and enrolled in the club that it
represents shall be eligible to for the
prize.
At the present moment, neither side has
shown the slightest inclination to give way
and a race seems out Of the question. How
ever, at a recent meeting Of the Yacht Racing
union Of the Great Lakes, a body that en-
braces the Lake Michigan, lnterlake and Lake
for presenting the matter to the Rochester
club IN light. Though there is
possibility Of q race in 1911, as II is past tho
date at which a challenge may be sent, the
Lake union expects to see an international
race in 1912.

SECRETS OF THE TEETH.

The dentists Of the United States

dentists recalls the Paris theory that
mans soul, and also woman's, is re-

ton and shading of the teeth.
This new method OF what is called

more certain than palmistry. mind

Long. narrow teeth indicate van

American manufacturers that they

This has just happened to an Amer

for tooth and toilet powder box
which prevented the contents from
sitting out while travelling. A large
British concern having learned Of the
excellence OF this device, and that its
owner had failed 70 comply with the
