Every person who has received gym
nasium training is aware OF the fact
that an exercise which calls for pain
full effort on the part of the beginner is
often performed almost without any
conscious effort at all after certain

Again. 1t is perfectly well known that
brute strength alone does not make a
gymnast and that even a simple exer-
else may offer great difficulty to mus
eular and well developed individual
who has not been trained In the gym
nasium. The explanation for this is
made in an article by Professor Du-
bols Raymond In Die Umshau. who
points out that one of the essential
functions Of gymnasium work Is not
so much to build up muscle as to train
nerves and nerve groups TO work In
proper unison and coordination.

DECIDE AGAINST
 GENERAL STRIKE Riots in Belgium Continue With Unabated
 Fierceness

Brussels. June 5.-The council of the labor party today decided against an i'm mediate general strike in spite of pro- tests by the Walloon delegates, reserV- ing such action for next month in the event of the government refusing to consider measure for the revision of the constitution which socialist deputies have introduced fin the chamber.
 Both the socialist and liberal parties have issued an urgent appeal to their followers to refrain from violence and to devote their energies to obtaining the abolition of the plural vote by parlia- mentary methods. These appeals. how ever, have had no effect in the walloon provinces where the strikes are spread ing.
 Acts of violence are of hourly occur renee, notwithstanding the energetic ac- tion of the authorities. At Brussels rioting was resumed tonight. The scenes of yesterday were repeated.
 As fast as the police scattered the mob at one place it reformed at another. Many persons were hurt ~ There were frequent clashes, both sides employing great violence. Several of the police were wounded by bullets.

FILE SUIT AGAINST
 SHIPPING COMBINE Alleges Monopoly of Trans pOrtatiOn Between United

New York, June 5.--The federal govern ment filed civil antitrust suit in the federal district court here today against steamship interests alleged to have mo- nopoized the Transportation of passengers and freight between the United States and Brazil.
 Sweeping charges of granting rebates, fixing arbitrary and unreasonables rates. and entering into conspiracy, combina- ton and agreement in violation of the Sherman law are made against the Prince line Qimited), the Hamburg lines and the proprietors of the Iamport and Mott line
 The court is petitioned to declare the alleged combination a restraint of trade in violation of the sherman law and to for bid the vessels of the defendants enter ing or clearing any port of the United States as long as the contracts, agree ments and practices of which the govern ment complains are continued.
 The government applies for series of injunctions prohibiting all parties con- cerned from granting rebates or bonuses, from fixing freight rates and from elim- mating competition among themselves or destroying the efforts of rivals. An inter- locutory injunction is sought to restrain the steamship lines from continuing their alleged unlawful methods during the pendency of the suit

Proceedings Against l.. & N. to Condemn Part of
 Right of Way

Montgomery, June 5.-(Special) )-Probate Judge J. B. Gaston has set June 12 as the day for the nearing of condemnation proceedings instituted by the Western Urion Telegraph company against the Louisville and Nashville Railroad com psny.

 tiOns in Jefferson

Montgomery, June 5.-(Special )--gover- nor. O'Neal will reply to the interview is sued by certain prominent business men of Birmingham in answer to the execu- tives statement with reference to,the tax assessments in Jefferson county. On Monday the governor issued an interview relative to the raises made by the state tax commission in Birmingham and Jeff ferson county, and this interview brought forth bitter reply by seven or eight of the leading business men of the county.
 The governor feels that he has been un- justly criticised, and in his next interview will publish a statement of certain prop erty valuations in Jefferson county as re- turned by the various owners According to this statement the governor is prepared to show that the returns as made to the tax commissioner indicate that much of the property was assessed as low as 20 per cent of the real value. The gover- nor's interview will probably be issued tomorrow.
