Liberty county. Georgia, is excited over
the proceedings of Dupont Bell, of Circle
villa, Ohio, who claims to be the New
Meesiah. He is stall, sallow’ individual
with long, black hair. Senator Brad well,
who lives at Hinesville. is kept constant
ly informed as to the latest developments
in the case.
“This man,” he said*, “ippeiwd *ud-1
denly six meek* ago. He proclaimed
himself the Son of Ood, and the negroes
went mad over him. They deserted their
fields to follow him, and now things are
ao bad that it is impossible to get hands
on the plantations near Riceboroogh.
The colored people kneel before him and
straggle with each other for the privilege
of kissing his feet. He has told them
that the Judgement Day will be here on
the 16th of August. He says the white
people have enjoyed the paradise on earth
for the last eighteen centuries, and now it
will be the black men’s turn. On the
eagerly looked-for 16th every white man
will be turned black and every black man
white. He says his body was born thirty
years ago in Ohio, but that bis aool has
been since the world began. On the 28th
of Juno he was arrested for vagrancy, but
it was impossible to hold him on such a
charge as he had a quantity of money in
his possession. If he were to be arrested
now, 500 negroes would be ready to go on
his bond, and the women would tear the
building down where he was confined
with their fingers to get him out. His
schemes for raising modby are peculiar.
The laat effort was a declaration that he
bad sent to his august Father for a con
signment of wings, which the colored
people will need on and after the six
teenth of August. There was a corner on
wings when his requisition reached heav
en, and the Almighty would only be able
to send 33) pairs. These, he claimed,
would be delivered on Judgment day,
and in the meantime be would sell them
at $6 a pair. Every pair has been bought
and paid for. He thinks his father may
be able to send him a few more pairs be
fore the great day arrives. There is a
scheme on foot to get Bell away from bis
followers, arrest him quietly and send
him on the fast train to Savannah, to be
locked op. That is, as far as 1 can see,
the only way to get rid of the man. He
may cause serious trouble any day.”

light at Prapla and Rlaga
The j*hyaical culture of thu world has j
in all times been the simple expression j
of • desire to recreate the perfect man.
The Olympian teamen and other m*nly
sports of Greece were with s view to the
true hero and to producing the. model of
manly strength sod beauty. Modern
atheist ica, auch as matches of strength
and swiftness, expertnena with weapons,
baseball games, the running of races,
| walking matches, boat racing and even
the coarser championship of the ring,
have had similar aims. The intention
has always been honorable, though the
idea may sometimes have been blindly
sought after. Aa a healthy mind cannot
exist without a healthy body, so mental
clearness la sought through physical ex
cellence. Therefore, it comes that the
[sanitary inducement is added to other
motives for the cultivation of the body
through abundant exercise and the pride
of active competition. The interest in
walking matches shown in eastern cities
of late is only a revival of tlie same teod
ancy, which has occasionally shown itself
since the world began. Therefore any
i thing connected with games that exercise
I the body, competitive feats of speed and
muscle, and, in fact, all phases of physi
cal culture and dexterity become interest
ing as a matter of history.
KVOLCTfOMS op nsne science.
The fist, with its “knock-down blow,”
was probably used by man at a very early
period of his history as a weapon of
offense and defense. The classic authors
give abundant proof of ita popularity.
In Pagan times Pollux firit obtained dis
tinction and Hercules gained a place with
the gods for their sparring abilities. Ibe
ancients fought with an atrocious cover
ing for tha hand beside whkh the modern
brass knuckle would be a mere plaything.
There were several forms of the weapon.
In general it was made of several thick
nesses of rawhide wound around the fists
and forearms. To add force to the blow,
lead or some other heavy metal was
placed within its folds on the back of the
hands. Virgil givn a graphic description
of a contest with thia formidable article
during the coarse of the gamee celebrated
by the hero in honor of his father, An
cblset.
THE ENOUSR RING.
In England great reliance has always
1 been placed on the fists, bat little authen
tic history can be quoted on the subject
till 1740, when public exhibitions of “pro
feasors'’ began to attract attention and
brute force was made to yield place to
science. The first adept in tha art of
i self-defense of whom we have special
mention was a gentleman by the name of
Fig, who was immediately followed and
outdone by Jack Broughton. What is
called the second era of boxing was In
augurated by an English Jaw named
Mendosa, and his contemporary. Hum-
phries, ths “gentleman boss*." Foe.
at that period the amusement had become
. national game la which all, wlthont
disgrace, could participate, and the Mo
lests wen honored by the presence of
kings sad princes. la 1788 sad there
abouts, Humphries sod Meodosa fought
thne battles, in which the letter leal the
hist onlr and gained the title of champion.
The "modern sra," as It has been desig
nated, was introduced by John Jackson,
who gained Us Brat victory over Fewtersl
is 1788, in ths presence of the Prince of
Wales. In 1796 he met and vanquished
Mendoaa. Hie rooms fa London, when
he gave lessons, wen frequented by the
silts of the city, hymen who afterwards
became famous at the bar and in the
senate. Since that time the held hie

more decent appearance in the combat;
tut one of the combatant* happening to
lose the victory by his covering falling
off, that accident was the occasion of

It woe the custom to award the victory to

In the famous interview between Henry
VIII and Uie French King Francis on the
noted “field of the cloth of gold” games
and tournaments were presented on a
scale of magnificence which has never
been equaled. Wrestling was considered
the most manly and entertaining of the
sports, and the supremacy of the English
caused great chagrin on the jmrt of the
French. Later in history we find the
French relying more on their dexterity in
the use of weapon, mere strength being a
secondary consideration. In the English
constitution the love of mere physics 1 1
prow ho* inheres to tbs last, to which fact i
ws may attribute tl»e decline of duelling
—one good effect at least.

The history of archery needs bat little I
elaboration. Tlie .bow and arrow was one
of the earliest of weapons, as we can
judge from the fact that it ia now known
to the moat aavage and uncivilised tribes
and has been used by them for unknown
ages. It had advanced to a great degree
of perfection among the most advanced
peoples when its use aa an inatrument of
war was entirely superseded by the intro
duction of firearms. At present we con
sider it only fit fer ornament and the
archery cluba, yet its general use is one
phase of the revival of the love for physi
cal sports.
OLAXHTOSIAL SHOWS.
In spite of the boasted civilisation of
Rome there always was present much of
the barbarian in its customs. This wss
specislly exemplified in the means which
her sons took to provide for themselves
amusements. Enormous sums were
spent in pandering to depraved tastes,
and unfortunately the prodigality was
attended with s reckless disregard for
human life. In the Colosseum were ex
hibited, not alone combats between wild
beasts, but man was pitted against man
in mortal combat. In the combats with
wild animals, condemned criminals were
often afforded a means of changing their
mode of death or of gaining their freedom
if victorious. The Emperor Comnsodus
himself is said to have entered the lists
sgainst the most furious wild beasts, and
on one occasion be slaughtered one hun
dred lions with his bew in one day. At
the opening of Pom pry’s theatre 800 Hons
were killed in five days and eighteen ele
phants produced on the same occasion
were in aocceesUm matched against lions,
one another and gladiators. At one per
iod this curtom gave rise to the regular
gladitorisd profession. It was Commodos
who sometimes condescended to try bis
skill in these struggles also, on which oc
casions bis opponents fared badly. If
they dared to overcome their royal oppon
ent they were sorely pot to death, and
their only escape from such a fate was to
tamely submit to be butrbsred by their
royal executioner. The relics of these ex
hibitions are probably still seen ia bull
baiting and the bull fights of the Span
iard*.
B AIX-rLA YIKO.
It is difficult to assign a beginning to so
universal a custom as hail-playing. Those
who seek far simplicity see its first sieges
of development in the rock used by the
savage as a weapon of defense or as a
means of gaining bis food. The next
step was the nse of the sling. The ac
quirement of skill in using devices of this
nature would beget emulation and rivalry,
developing, in the course of time, into
amusement. China is famous lor. shut
tlecock and ball-playing. Hand-ball is
sung by Homer because it was planed by
the maidens of Coreyra. The earlist game
was called the pat-bell, being a ami of a
hollow ball. Hand-ball has given riae to
tennis and rackets. It was the preesnt of
tennis balls which so incensed Henry V
against the Dauphin.
We aie »lsd the P—phin Is so pleasant with oa:
His vreaent sad roar pains we thank you for:
When we have matched ov rackets to thsee
We will la France, by God’s trace, play a set;
Shell strike his father's crown late the hasard.
Tin he hath nude e match with each a wraasler

Tennis was originally termed “paume,”
and the renowned Sir Tristram, as the
“Romance of the Death of King Arthur”
tells os, excelled in this pastime; also, in
>4 ranßying, sbotyng and ranting of the
bane.”
CBICKXT.
Few, if any, gamaa of ball have been
so popular, especially In England, as
cricket. Its exact origin Is uncertain,
hot to the English it its pram Ineoce.
It has been played OSgrip as long as any |
game of ball, bqt unfit* various modifies-1
tions. It is claimed by -ome to he an old
at least aa 1800. An old ballad honors it
thus:
Hqr vs* the prettiest fellow
At foot ball or at cricket;
At hunting. chaae or nimble roee:
How leatly ebc «mld prick M.
uvvsna and walking matches.
Running races, an has been shown, I
are as old se the world. Walking
is of imire recent prominence. The
first is a test of speed and mus
cle. thft last ie a trial of speed
and muscle combined with endurance.
Racing may be traced hock to the earliest
periods of Grecian antiquity, and may be
regarded as the first friendly contest in
which men engaged. Accordingly the
Olympic and Pythian, probably also the,
other games, opened with foot-races.
Foot-racing, perfected by systematic prac-1
tice, was divided into different kinds.
When the distance was merely to the end
ofthecourse.it was called stadium; if
thither and bark H constituted the double
I course. The longest course was the Doll
| cboa, which required extraordinary speed
and power of endurance. What it in
volved the ancients have left in no small
uncertainty. It is sometime* given aa
seven tines over the stadium; at others,
twelve; at others agaiu, twenty*, sad
even the number of four and twenty times
is mentioned. These distances will give
some idea of the severity of the trial. In
deed, one Ladas, a victor at the Olympic
games, was so exhausted by his efforts in
the long rare that immediately upon
gaining the honor and being crowned he
fell dead. In the preparatory discipline
everything was done which could con
duce to swiftness and strength. Tha ex
. erclsea were performed with the body
naked and well-oiled. Minute directions
were established in order to prevent fool
I play of any kind, so that all tha compel
j itors might start and ran on terms ol per-
I feet equality. It may well be supposed
that the competitors employed all their
ability, and displayed the greatest eager
ness to gain the prise. The nearer, too,
they approached to the goal, the mote did
they increase their efforts. Sometimes
the victory depended on a Anal spring;
happy he that retained power enough to
leap first to tha goal. After the competi
tors had bean called Into the lists by the
herald, they sometimes tried their
strength and exercised their frames by
running out and back on the course.
Virgil describee an ancient race, daring
the wanderings of Eneas, as follows:
To tholr appointed bsao they wont;
With besting hearts ths expectsd sign receive,
And sterling all at one the barrier leave.
Spread ont, as on tbs winged winds, they flow,
And seised the distant goal with greedy view.
Shot from the crowd, swift Nlsus sll o'er-passort,
Nor storms, nor thnnder equal half his baste.
The next, though the next, yet far disjoined,
Came Balias sad Enrynlms behind:
Then Hclymua, whom yoang Dlorto piled.
Step after step, and almost side by side;
Ills shoulders pressing, sad. la longer space,
Had woo, or left at least s dubious root
New spoat, the goal they almost roach si lost,
Whoa eager Nlsms, hapless la his haste,
Slipped first, sad slipping, tell upon the plain,
soaked with the Mood of oxen, newly slain,
The careless victor bad not assrkod his way.
Bnt treading where the treacherous paddle Ur,
His bools flow np, sad on the grassy floor.
Ho fell, besmeared with filth sad holy goto.
Not mindless, then, Knryslns. of thee.
Nor of the sacred bonds of amity.
Ho strove the immediate rival’s hope to cross,
And ceoght the foot of Balias sa ho rose.
So Hallos lay extend ad on the plain:
Xnryalaa springs oat. the prise to gala,
And leaves the crowd—applauding pools attend
The victor to the gonl. who rnaqnlohod by his
friend,
Next Belymas, and than biotas came,
By two rniafemißco made the third la fame.

The Seattle Morning Journal: II there
ia anything under the ekialng canopy
which our constitutional convention baa
not considered or will not consider, it
would be difficult lb guess it The latest
matter to he taken up by the profound
aggregation of wiedom Is the location of
the capital. Having deliberated, suppoe
edly. long and deep upon the question,
the committee having it In charge has
decided that Olympia is for all time, the
proper place far the capital.
Since the convention haa yet to act
upon the recommendation, the Journal
desires to prulsst earnestly agsinal any
inch action. It ia another indication of
tb« fatnone and abeord mndlneaa o< lb.
convention to intermingle legielitlte
with its constitution.) dattaa. We my
this without prejudice to Olympia. Ware
that city selected as the capital by the
legislature wa would oat have a aiagle
word of criticism, since the capital might
be removed at aay time the legislature
might desire. We world enter the tame
protest if any other city, even Seattle her
self, were chosen by the ecoveution as
the fixed capital, with so mesas of chang
ing it except by constitutional amendment.
It Is quite conceivable that aay city which
now would in erdryway be dealrable as the
capital, might, in the future be entirely
undesirable.
It would net do to fix the capital, than,
permanently at any place.
Such a course would not only ha a
present but a future wrong to the several
towns which are now urging their respec
tive claims to the capital, and which cer
tainly have a right to be heard. The out
thing of which the members ot
the convention seem to kme sight
la tha fact that tbair work now is practic
ally unchangeable, and that however un
destfable and inconvenient certain pro
visions of the constitution may be found
upon trial, they cannot easily be elimi
nated. .

and as she couldn't see very wall, she
got her grandson, Jakie, to read it for hen
Jakie took the paper Ilka a dutiful child,

“Take a green watermelon—”
“Why, Jakie, ain't yon mistaken? 1
thought the melon must be ripe.”
Oh, what’s d« mutter wid yon? Jew

k ut the melon into four halves—“
“But there sin’t only two halves to

“Wall, don’t halva to. Anyway that's
what the reoeet says. Then soak the
watermelon in a pint cup—"
“Oh, dear me! How in the world can
vou pat a watermelon into a pint cup?”
"Well, I ain't ben to tell yon the
whereas and howlores. I’m just reading
tha facta and you can put them in the
philosophy to suit your taste. After
soaking the melon, put it into a skillet
and fry it for four days.”
“I wonder if Mrs. Brown sent me such
a receipt as that?” said the old lady; but
Jakie kept on:
“Then put the watermelon into a quart
bowl, and pour over it a gallon of vinegar
taking care not to spill the vinegar—”
*Td just like to know how you can
poor a gallon into a quart without spill
ing any of it.” But Jakie continued:
“Then sift a peck of red peppers over
the melon through a milk strainer, and
to one cop of butter odd tha whites and
yolks of three eggs, and throw in the old
hew that laid 'em, and four sticks of cin
namon drops, and a bottle of Dr. Mary

than pot H into a tin can and than tie it

mule has to that of * •professor,* * borrow*
ed a shotgun and gave out that ho had
camped on our trail and meant to riddle
oor system with buckshot on sight. Word
was brought to os, and though ws were
busy at the time superintending oor com
bined weekly newspaper, harness shop,
grocery, baser and gun store (all under
one roof and the largest retail establish
ment in Arisons), ws bid aside our work
and went over to Snyder's saloon in search
of the maior. Ws found him and gave
him such a whipping aa do man In this
(own ever got before. He lbs a broken
and stranded wreck on the shores of time,
so to speak, and the doctor says it will
be six weeks before be will find any more
trails or do any more camping.
EirxAXAToar.—As several versions of
the incident that occurred In oor oAce
Saturday evening are flying around town
and have probably been telegraphed all
over the world wo deem H bat right to
give the particulars aa they occurred:
We were seated in the editorial chair
writing a leader on the European situa
tion, whan a rough psnon known around
town as "Mika the Shyer,” called In.
Aa we never had award with the man we
suspected no evil. Aa a matter of fact,
we reached for our subscription book,
supposing, of oouras, that bo wanted the
best weekly in America for a yeer. The
Slayer then announced that he had oama
to slay us, not because we had aver dona
him harm, bat bacnaae the influence of
the press was driving out the good old
timoe customs.
We retreated toward the door of our
Ho pnood 00 with 0 drown knife.
Wo then felt It oor duty to drew our
gun and let atz etreaka of daylight

bat no oae can blame no. We paid bla

wQI bo found hie obituary, written la our

At some u( the plain, cheap. American
restaurant* so plentiful in New York you
| have four or five kind* of soup, as many,
{ perhaps, of fish, half-a-doaeu roaete, and
an ample array of made dishee, plea, pod
dingo. etc., and all the vegetables, canned
or frgeh, in ordinary nee anywhere. Yet
the entire kitchen is no bigger than that
of an ordinary bouse, and one, or at moat
two. aaaistanta to wash dishes is all the
help the one plain Yankee cook require*.
How is this possible? Htand wide mid
see. Here comes a waiter with an order
for vegetable soup The oook lifts the Ud
fit a big boiler of dear soup, made by
boiling bones and scrape of beef, mutton,
chicken, veal. etc. Out of this boiler the
cook dips a bowlful of the clear coup and
Into it be pope in quick mioceaetoo a little

serving for that day. There is your vege
table soup. Is it conaommie? From a
big pitcher he pours into the dear stock
some brown thickening fluid. Is it mac
aroni? A pot of boiled macaroni is near
at hand and he forks a few strings into
the bowl. Is it oi-tall? A big tin of
condensed os-tail soup stands on a handy
abelf, and a spoonful lends Hs flavor to
tbe stock. Is it chirksn? Hs thrusts »

scraps of chirksn are found to pass mum

and a fistful of curry-powder, and you
have a curry. A little tkkkeuteg and a
