WEIGHT REDUCING
 BY ELECTRICITY.

No longer will the overweight. ath- e1ete, be he pugilist or Jockey, ore man or jumper, have to jog many weary miles for days at stretch, clad in several heavy sweaters, in order to remove the superhuous flesh and reach the pink of condition. The modern way is to peacefully recline in a big arm chair while electric currents of frardic and galvanic varieties, gently how through the body and eliminate all unnecessary averdupois at the rate of a pound every few min- utes.
 One of these modern weight redue- ing chairs is exhibited at the Electri- cal Show in New York. It is to be found at the Electrical hospital and the doctor in charge says that 1t re- duces weight primarily through. the synchronous contraction of the Inuscu- lature, and secondarily through the e1ectro-chennicaI action of the faradie cynusoida1 current passing through the fissuesS whatever that means It is quite possible that these weight re- ducing chairs will become part of the regular equipment Of both track and ring.

 Although the internal nechine had been loaded with s1ugs it did compar- atively little damage Only 30 or 35 persons were in the Cathedral at the time. One of them, James Rogers of struck by a part of a shattered pew Neither he nor any of the other wor- shippers in the church were able to tell anything that would help the po- lice in the solution of the mystery.
 The shock of the bomb shook the Union club, opposite the Cathedral It was heard for two blocks distant and brought every traffic policeman with in earshot to the place on the run. It became necessary afterward to call the reserves from the E1ast Fffty-hrst street station to calm the crowd that gathered in front of the church.
 Mgr. Michael J. Lavelle, rector Of St. Patrick,s, had passed through the church a few minutes before the ex- Heved the dynamite instrument had been set in place by a demented man No threatening letters or any warning had been received by the church au- thorities, the preIate said.
 Nothing but the slugs remained as a clue for the police to work on. In spector Joseph F'aurots in charge of the detective bureau, was at the Ca- thedraI fifteen minutes after the de- structive attempt, but he admitted there is little hope of capturing the person responsible for the explosion.

Some of these centers are in circus tents seating a thousand men and some in renovated COW sheds.

 On the religious side, the men are given testaments and also pamphlets dealing in part with military duties. Every evening there is a general sing song of both popular and patriotic airs, ending with a short religious ser vice. The men are also asked to sign total abstinence pledges for the period Of the war, on the ground that drink destroys soldiers efficiency.
