In order to do this t.i . i. i i we wouiu suggvsi tne inirouuctioii oi some new features which have heretofore been conspicuous by their absence. Reading, spelling and composition particularly need the attention of the society. As a good method lo accomplish improvement in these brant-hen, they should arouse a spirit of com petition aoiong their members. Offer i prize occasionally, for the best composition, the best delivered recitation, the best ex temporaneous address, tho best original drawing, and many other things of import ance, oi which we nave not the space to speak. As a method to improve the spelling. we could recommend nothing be tter than the oia time "spelling match. lhere caunot be too much stress laid upon this matter of spelling, for while it may be no great merit to spell well, it is certainly a disgrace to spell ill.

Further more, we wish the Association every success, and hope it may meet with the hearty support that it deserves. Star. " How the City Stands.

It is "the thing" in some sections for married ladies to write their family name and hus band's name with a-hyphe-n. Thus, if MIkm Hannah Spookendyke marries James Bald wlnton, she writes it Mrs. Hannah Spooken dyke-Ruldwinton. Omitting the Inconveni ence, the good ta&te of this aping aristocracy Is questionable.

An Aimlr Iletween Two Colored Gentleman. G lobeIeniocrat. New Lexixgtojt, O., Jan. 19, At the mining town of Corning, in Perry County, are a number of colored miners who were imported from time to time pending strikes by white miners, until, with their families, they form quite a community. They have their schools, their churches, their courtships, marriages, and now since last night they nave had their duel. It was the first affair of honor'in ihe colored commnnity, and it is an occasion of pride as well as of excitement. Of course it was about a lady Susan Shaver. She was the object of the loves of Harold Robinson and McClellan Balfie, and was unable to choose between them. The rivals met one evening at the young lady's house, and they quarreled as to which should have the pleasure of her com panv. The quarrel led to a challenge from l il . . .. il. .,1 .. , . -4 . one oi me men 10 me omer 10 meet nini in deadly combat. The challenge was prompt ly accepted, and last evening just before dark was the time set Ior the duel, and the sub urb of Corning was selected as the battle ground. At the appointed time the principals and their seconds arrived at the place agreed upon, ai;d preparations were speedily made for the duel. The weapons previously agreed upon were British bulldog revolvers. The antagonists took position, and at the word both blazed away. Robinson missed, but the ball from Balfie's pistol lodged in Robinson's right cheek. Both stood firm; Robinson fired again. Balfie escaped, and Robinson received another bullet from Balfie's pistol, this time in the right side. This put a stop to theaflair, and all parties returned to their homes satisfied. It is thought that Robinson's wounds will prove fatal. Balfie has not yet been arrested, but can hardlv escape, a the offieers are after him.

View of tbe Only Ladles' Urnuiatlum lo This Country V here Back Bay Beauties Climb Poles, Turn Somersaults I Boston Globe. That Boston contains a ladies' gymnasium, well-appointed and in constant operation, is a fact that is not generally known. The Boston gymansium has had a short but un usually successful course under the direction of Miss Alary h. Allen. The hall contains every appliance for gymnastic work, and in the side rooms there are ample numbers of bath and dressing-rooms. The physical development that has fol lowed a few months practice in the gymnasium has, in every instance, been marked. One lady, when she first entered, could ex pand the chest only to 314 inches; at the end of six months, inflated, it measured 33 inches. At first the limit of her power ot contraction of the cheat was S0J inches, but in the same time it became 29 inches, a gain in six monins 01 mcnes in tne nexiOdity of the chest muscles. One little girl, about eight or ten years of age, when she entered was in a wretched condition, but at the end of two or three moaths had gained sixteen pounds in weight, and was stronger- and brighter every way. The gymnasium closed at that time for the summer, but she CONTINUED TO GAIN IN HEALTH AND 811 KITS from the impetus of her few months of practioe. One lady gained during the gymnasium season of six months, oneeitrhthof an inch in the upper arm measuremeit, and three eighth in the fore arm. Cases are numerous," sa:d Miss Allen, "of slight curvatures of the spine that have b' en benefited in every innance, and usually entirely corrected. One shoulder or hip is orten so much higher than the other that the two sides of a dress roust be cut differently; but this, which is really a slight curvature, a few month' gymLaitic? will remedy. It is often caused by playing croquet or tennis entirely with one band, and I have one case of a lady with a slight curvature resulting fiom always carrying her train with the fame hand." A visit to tbe gymnasium showed its pupils to ran go all the way from five years to forty, and to be drawn from all classes of society, but mainly from tho wealthiest and most cultured The gymnattio costume of blouse and Turkish trouteis,with low-heeled elastic-soled ehoes, seemed in itself to Le a source of gret enjoyment to the gymnasts, and it was almost pathetic to see the pleasure they derive from the unrestrained use of limb and body; they disdained tbe common me mod oi locomotion, and ran, skipped, jnmped wherever they wished to go, appearing to take a wonderful pleasure in the mere exersiee o muscle, as if they had not known what they could do. Said one miss to a friend who had come in to look on: ''You don't know hiw gol it teems to get into this costume." An eminent nhviirian speaking on this subject, said that if the ladies did nothing ehe it would be of great benefit to them just to run about awhile in these clothes. The youngest clas3, composed of both boys and cirls of from five to ten or twelve I i 1 i 1 3 f . . . years oia, iurnisnea an amusing illustration ox me aiuerem ways in wnicn tne sexes I run. as tney ran, ootn areesed alike, at I . . IU" "P"1 BUWUfc rwu, IT WAS EASY TO DISTINGUISH THE SF.X 'each by the different motion of the body. In the matter of rucniog tbe advanced claste showed .what can be done by practice. The beginners in this exercise ran with a heavy, ungraceful step and an awkward motion, while those who have been under instruction for a longer time ran with an aase and grace of motion and a lightness and elasticity of step that could not have been excelled in waltz of schottische. While a score of girls under Wm Allen's direction were exercising with pulley weights a number, aided by a subordinate, were vaulting, one was in the rowing ap paiatus pulling away with as much z it as if ehe were gliding swiftly down stream, another was climbing the shinning pole, two were practicing all sorts of contortions on the parallel bars, cne was making her way along the fljing rings with the peculiar graceful, swinging motion which this exercise gives, and on a mat at one side of the room two merry p iris, whose bright glances have been greatly coveted in the assemblages of the elite of the Back Bay, were turning somersaults, interspersing their exercise with such merry peals of laughter as showed their enjoyment of it was ot do email aegree. Two others, marchirg about the room with beanbazs piled high on their headp, were acquiring straightnets of rpinal column and elegance or carriage in tneir enoris to elude each other's attempts to dash said bean-bags to tbe floor. At a signal irom the piano they were ranged in position, with dumb-bells, and, after going through tho various exer cises with these, and marching and running about the room, at the signal 'Rest" they disported themselves in picturesque and GRACEFUL, THOUOH UNCONVKNTloXAL ATI TVVZ on the floor mats about the room. In speaking of the lack of muscle among the women and girls when they first enter the gymnasium, Miss Allen, a slender, petite btdy, who is herself an example of the beneflts of gymnasium training, said: ''When they first come in they have no muscle at all; they can not lift their weight on the parallel bars, and they can not vault with tne poie as mgn as me Knees oi an averagesized woman. After a year or two of exercise they can vault with it up to their shoulders. Gentleman g)mnasts often say to me that thev have easy prelimi nary exercises which the girls can do easily; they are such that any boy fifteen years old can go through them without difficulty, but no girl who has just entered here can begin to do them. The lack of muscle among them is quite astonishing." When questioned with regard to the aim t the gjmnasium, the replied: "We do not attempt to teach tricks, and we make no pretense of bet -vy work. What we aim to do is to correct deficiencies, develop the system t jnly and tone it up by raising the circulation, which will result in a better appetite and better general health. I have had ladies come to me who were UNABLE TO TAKE THE 8TANDINO XXKECISM and would take what they could lying on their backs ant sitting in chairs. The physician's treatment would be so aided and supplemented by these that they would immediately begin to improve. Frequently they cotre to their lessons feeling wretchedly, and will a?k if they 'had better exercise to-day but at tbe end of the lesson they will say they never felt better." As the ladits emerged from the dressingrooms, ciad once more in conventional na-

Mliment?, with some astonishment it was noted that many of those who, in gymnastic costume, had teemed to ba gay girls of from fifteen to twenty years, were demure ladies and stately matrons who must surely have pasted their thirtieth mile-Eton e. LITTLE FOLKS ABKOIU

LYON AND OSCEOLA Counties in Northwest Iowa, are conceded to be the most beautiful and fertile in the State. This summer we have opened upwards of 300 new farms, sinking a well, building a convenient house and roomy barn, and breaking' from 60 to 100 acres on each farm. These farms are to let on terms that no industrious man can fail to make profitable. Immediate posfsession given. We will, if needed, furnish seed for next year's crop. We will also furnish breaking to be done, for which we will pay the regular prices. Tenants not having teams enough to break with, will be supplied with a horse or horses for that purpose, at market price, and the pay taken in breaking. These farms are situated within a few milea of the railroad. Apply personally or by letter to CLOSE BROS. & CO. Sibley, Osceola County, Iowa.
