Training Methods in Ise Among
Athletes.
New York. Aug. 2.—lt would perhaps
be difficult to prove that the men who
are to-day winning college boat races,
football games and other athletic
contests are more perfect muscular
machines than the champion of other
days, but certain it is that the past
few years has seen some most impor
tant additions to the mechanical ap
paratus for bringing about physical
perfection. The public, however, hears
little about this. To the vast majority
of the sport-loving public "training" is
an all-comprehensive term that may
mean almost anything so long as it
produces tangible results, and perhaps
not one in a thousand of the shouting
men who crowd the grandstands at the
big contests, realizes that the twentieth
century athlete is trained and devel
oped, muscle by muscle, and finally
muscles, heart, lungs and that intan
gible quality which we call nerve or
endurance, all together; until the
wonderful human machine is perfected
to the highest point of possible en
deavor.
One of the most radical achievements
in this direction is the invention, by
Prof. Dudley A. Sargent, director of
the Harvard University Gymnasium, of
an ingenious machine known as the in
motor, which is said to exercise sim
ultaneously a larger number of the
muscles of the human body than any
other apparatus ever introduced. Di
rector Sargent came to the conclusion
some years ago that there was some
thing lacking in gymnasium work. He
found that for a number of the men in
his classes the heavy work was too ar
duous and exhausting, whereas the
light work, on the other hand, was too
feeble an,d spiritless. Dumb-bells, In
dian clubs and many other kinds of
portable apparatus, he found, were es
sentially local in their effects rather
than general, and it is to this realiza
tion that may be attributed the rele
gation to comparative obscurity of
these types of developers in the most
up-to-date gymnasiums. The trainers
found that a man would develop, by
means of these old-fashioned devices,
one part of the body after another, un
til he was very strong all over, and
yet be decidedly lacking in ability to
make continued application of his pow
er for any length of time. Indeed, it
was discovered by actual tests that
men who had gained general muscular
ity on this local installment plan were,
when called upon to bring a great
many muscles into action at one time,
actually greatly distresser for breath.
Although it was obvious that the old
system of producing athletes was faul
ty it was not an easy matter to sub
stitute something better. A man
trained in accordance with the anti
quated custom was like a factory ac
customed to work but a few of its ma
chines at one time, and provided with
an engine adapted to that purpose. If
it were desired to operate all the ma
chines at once obviously it would be
impossible to generate sufficient steam.
The factory in such a case would need
a larger engine and more powerful boil
ers, and the individual under parallel
circumstances requires an invigora
tlon of the heart and lungs, and if pos
sible, more nerve power. It was just
here that the greatest stumbling block
Was encountered. The best forms of
exercise to produce the results desired
are rowing, running and swimming,
but unfortunately these may be in
dulged in during only a comparative
brief portion of the year, and so Mr.
Sargent set about combining and re
modeling the old-fashioned apparatus
into a machine which should combine
heart, lung, and nerve-increasing
power with general muscular develop
ment. The inomotor was the result.
The inomotor more nearly resembles
a rowing machine than anything else
in the old-fashioned gymnasium equip
ment, but the exercise for which it pro
vides is designed as an improvement
even upon that of rowing, in that the
use of muscles in 1 a cramped position
is not required. What a wonderful
piece of mechanism this new marvel is
may be appreciated when it is ex
plained that it is almost a gymnasium
in itself; that it can be used indoors
or out-of-doors, and that it can be ap
plied to the propulsion of vehicles on
land, ice or snow, or to the propulsion
of boats by means of oars, paddle
.tvheels or propellers.
To put the matter in a nutshell this
new contrivance may be described in
Us simplest aspect as a pair of levers
connected by four adjustable rods, with
a sliding seat, and a sliding foot
which are each in turn connected by a
power-applying rod or cord to a crank
clutch gear or sprocket wheel. It is
supposed to act especially upon the
back, waist and abdominal region,
which most of the instructors and
trainers have come to regard as the
weak points of the American athlete.
It tends to correct the drooping head,
rounded shoulders and flat chest, and,
most important of all to many- an am
bitious athlete, can be used for the re
duction of fat through general muscu
lar activity, without obliging the indi
vidual to support his own weight and
thereby strain the muscles and tendons
of the feet and legs before the rest of
the body has had exercise enough to
bring about a vigorous circulation and
perspiration.
Some important principles, heretofore
largely disregarded, have ben rigidly
observed in planning the inomotor.
For one thing it is desired ito permit
the use of the muscles in a perfectly
natural way, each group according to
its strength, and to admit of one
group of muscles being used while
the others are relaxed, or to enable
one part of the body to rest while an
other part Is brought into action.
Thus, if desired, all the more Import
ant muscles may be brought Into ac
tion In quick succession. In the case
of the inomotoF, the greater the strain
put upon the handle bars by the hands,
the greater will be the force exerted
by the feet and legs, and consequently
the greater will be the power gener
ated. The machine is so constructed
as to admit of as little lost motion as
possible, and In whatever direction
arms, fet, legs or trunk may be mov
ed, the effort Is converted into a me
chanical advantage.
The mechanical creations which com
prise this new era of muscle builders
have an Important qualification not
possessed by their predecessors. It I*
that they have almost without excep
tion been built with reference to their
possible use as corrective agents for
physical defects or weaknesses. For
merly many promising young men were
excluded from athletic teams of one
kind or another simply because they
lacked muscular development In some
one particular direction, although toth
erwtse capable. The new machines are
so arranged that if it Is desired to
use any one system of muscles more
than the others, as a means of
strengthening and developing them,
this may be accomplished by a simple
adjustment of the apparatus. So, to,
it is possible to oppose one set of mus
cles to another, thereby intensifying
the action of both.
While the inomotor is the most val
uable of the new acquisitions for the
gymnasium, there are others scarcely
I less interesting. One of these is the
I treadles, which have a movement
! somewhat similar to that of the old
f isbicned weaving loom. Another is the
bridle, a novel device which strengthens
the muscles of a man’s neck by means
of a pulley-weight attached by
harness to his head. A similar appa
ratus called the stirrup develops the
muscles of the legs, anew form of
lifting machine brings all the weight
on the shoulders, and there are novel
ties in the line of chest developers and
expanders, some of which resembles
trapezes suspended by elastic cord. In
genious finger and wrist strengthen
ing machines are now to be found in
the best equipped gymnasiums. A head
lifting machine has been introduced
whereby w’eights up to ten pounds are
raised on the head, and nearly all the
muscles that move the head, neck and
trunk are brought into action. A leg
rotating machine, a wrestling machine,
wherein the athlete must turn a pivot
ed rod, paddling and sculling machines,
are recent innovations, and there has
even come into use an abdominal ex
erciser, wherein the person in training
becomes a human see-saw with a stool
for a supporting pedestal. By the full
complement of machines now in use
nearly 160 muscles may be trained.
An important step in advance has
recently been made as a result of the
effort of trainers to infuse into gym
nasium exercises something of the ex
citement afforded by races and com
petitive sports and games. It has been
recognized that this is a beneficial fea
ture and the newer apparatus has been
so constructed that the exercise taken
with it sets it in motion, thus afford
ing opportunity for competition in dif
ferent kinds of races such as rowing,
paddling and sculling on the floor of
the gymnasium.
The tactics pursued by the most suc
cessful athletic trainers show almost
as many departures from former cus
toms as are found in the apparatus far
muscle building. No exercise is per
mitted before breakfast or within half
an hour before eating. A fifteen min
ute walk before breakfast is prescrib
ed, and severe physical effort after 6
o’clock in the evening is tabooed. The
new theory is that it is better to eat
too much than too little, and trainers
now permit the men in their charge to
follow a 6 o’clock dinner by a light re
past at 11 o'clock at night, if desired.
The present day athlete is told to
drink after eating and not immediately
before or during the meal. If very
thirsty he is permitted to take a few
swallows of -water and must wait for
fifteen or twenty minutes before tak
ing all he needs. The athlete has four
or five meals a day, under certain con
ditions, but they are at regular inter
vals, and seven or eight hours’ sleep
is demanded. He is advised to bathe
in cool water before breakfast, and in
warm water before retiring. Dieting is
practiced to a greater or less extent by
almost all the first class trainers, who
make a special study of each man in
their charge.
KILLED IN A RUNAWAY.
/.ebnlnH Farmer Loses Ills Life, f'oni
panion Badly Hurt.
Zebulon, Ga., Aug. 4.—While E. L.
Manley, Jr., and Tom Driver were re
turning from Pine Mountain Springs
yesterday afternoon, the horse they
were driving became frightened and
ran away, throwing both out of the
buggy. One of Manley's feet caught
in the irons underneath the buggy and
he was dragged several hundred yards
before the horse freed himself from
the buggy. When Manley was found
he was dead. One of his arms was
broken, a big gash had been cut in his
right leg and bruises were on his head
and back. Driver received several cqts
and bruises, but it is believed he will
recover.
Manley was a farmer, about 23 years
of age, and a good farmer, and had
some property. He and Driver had
been drinking yesterday, and it is be
lieved they shot a pistol behind the
horse and frightened him. The cor
oner will hold an inquest over Man
ley’s remains this evening.
TIFTON NOTES.
The n. S. and F. llnilronil Increases
Train Service.
Tifton, Ga., Aug. 4 Beginning to
day the Georgia Southern and Florida
Railway puts on two extra passenger
trains dally between Macon and Val
dosta, leaving Macon at 8:45 a. m.,
passing Tifton at 12:30 p. m., and ar
riving at Valdosta at 2:00 p. m. Leave
Valdosta at 2:30 p. m„ passing Tifton
3:35, arriving at Macon at 7 p. m. These
trains are made necessary by the road's
increasing business.
Effective Aug. 1, the Tifton and
Northeastern Railroad assumed charge
of the traffic department of the Ocilla
and Irwinville road, the new line re
cently built by the Ensign-OScamp
Lumber Company from Ocilla to Irwin
ville, in Irwin county. Mr. H. H. Tift is
president of the Tifton and Northeast
ern, and Mr. J. Lee Ensign, president
of the Ocilla and Irwinville; S. G. Boat
right is traffic manager, and J. L. Jay,
Jr., auditor of both roads. All business
and correspondence of the two lines
will be handled from the Tifton office.
MURDERER CAPTURED.
Tom Whitaker Will Answer for
Killing Done In April.
Tifton, Ga., Aus. 4—Sheriff W. L.
Swindle of Berriesr brought to Tifton
yesterday apd turned over to Sheriff
Warren Fletcher of Irwin, Tom Whita
ker, colored, wanted in Irwin for mur
der. On the night of April 26. last,
Whitaker shot and killed a negro wo
man, Lovey Bryant, during a dance
at a negro festival at Phillips’ mill, in
Irwin. The cause of the shooting Is
said to have been that the Bryant wo
man stepped on Whitaker’s wife’s toes.
The murder was so cold-blooded and
brutal that the people of that section,
headed by Mr. Phillips, offered a re
ward of SSO for Whitaker’s arrest. He
was discovered by Sheriff Swindle at
Nashville, where he appeared little ap
prehensive of being caught, as he had
applied at the sheriff’s house for work.
HELD UP FOLD EM\\.
Hoy With Gan Temporarily Disar
ranges Blind Tiger Raid.
Atlanta, Aug. 4.—W. M. Crawford, a
13-year-old boy, tried to hold up the
county police this afternoon with a
double-barrelled shot guh. Three of
the policemen raided a blind tiger and
when they went into the place, the boy
levelled the gun on them and threaten
ed their lives if they mtived. They
finally succeeded in disarming him and
arresting him and J. O. Murphy the
proprietor of the liquor shop.

THE MORNING NEWS: MONDAY. AUGUST 5,190 L
GUBERNATORIAL COMMENT.
XVhat the State Paper* Are Saying
Aliont tile Onniliilnte*.
The Eatonton Messenger: Col. Estill
is one of the most intelligent men in
Georgia. He possesses rare business
ability, and has horse sense. He would
make a splendid governor, and The
Messenger would be delighted to see
him thus fittingly rewarded for his
long and valuable services to the
state.
The Jackson Argus: With Henry G.
Turner out of the field, Brantley is by
far the best-fitted man for the place,
who has been mentioned so far —unless,
perhaps, the clearheaded, business Es
till.
Valdosta Times: Col. Estill, through
his paper, has done a great work for
the state and especially for the south
ern section, and he has strong friends
who will stand loyally by him. The
success which he has made of his own
affairs is the best ground for predict
ing that he would give the state a
strong business-like administration if
elected.
Athens Banner: Col. J. H. Estill,
candidate for Governor of Georgia, says
that he has no platform, and does not
think he will promulgate one. He says
that the constitution and the laws are
the platform on which the chief execu
tive stands.
He says: “Personally, I am a teeto
taler, local option, in my opinion, how
ever, is the best temperance measure
that has yet been devised. I am in
favor of liberal appropriations for pub
lic education, and favor pensions to
poor Confederate soldiers and their
widows, but no others.”
These views of Col. Estill are very
sound. They make up a good platform
in themselves. Col. Estill is a man who
has risen from the ranks by his ability
and energy. He is a Confederate veter
an, and will no doubt run well with
that element.
BICYCLE WEEK AT THE PAX.
The Meet In tlie Ilig Stndlnm Will
Bea v Notable Event.
Buffalo, N. Y„ Aug. 4.- One of the
best bicycle meets ever held w’ill be
inaugurated in this city during the
coming week in the Stadium at the
Pan-American Exposition. The best
amateurs of the country will compete
in the events which include quarter,
third, one, two and five miles. Gold,
silver and bronze medals will be
awarded the winners.
Asa grand wind up to the events
of the week there will be a twenty
mile paced race in which any number
of noted middle-distance men will com
pete.
The Maccabebees will pitch their
tents at the exposition on Wednesday.
Twenty thousand Knights and Ladies
are expected to visit the exposition on
Wednesday.
McDuffie’s rich one.
State Geologist to Investigate Three
More Gold Mine*.
Atlanta, Aug. 4.—State Geologist W.
S. Yeates leaves to-morrow for Mc-
Duffie county, where he goes to inves
tigate three more of the gold mines of
that section. They are the Porter, the
Tatham and the Edwards mines. Mc-
Duffie is turning out to be one of the
richest gold counties in the state, and
it is believed that fabulous sums are
yet to be taken out of the mines there.
Only recently a small vein was discov
ered which yielded $22,640 to the ton,
and these mines which Prof. Yeates will
investigate are in the same ore veins.
Other rich finds are expected.
ROY MISSING.
Atlanta Mother Frantic With Grief
nt Sou’s Mysterlons Absenee.
Atlanta, Aug. 4.—Arthur Strickland,
the 15-year-old son of a widow', living
on Broyles street, mysteriously disap
peared last night, and his mother is
frantic with grief. He went to the Y.
M. C. A., leaving there at 9 o'clock,
and since then he has not been heard
from. The police have searched all
day, but have found no clue. He was
a good boy and was never known to
go anywhere without first telling his
mother. The police think it is another
Bass Fraser case, though just what the
latter is no one has ever detrrmined.
ENGLAND’S TATTOOING CRAKE,
Princes anil Uishops Alleged to
Share It—A Lady’s Tattooed Eye
brow*.
From the London Express.
The tattooing craze seems to be
spreading In society circles, and there
are few people whom one meets now
adays at the best houses who have not
some design indelibly marked upon
their skins.
The idea that the process of being
tattooed is a painful one Is quite er
roneous, for if it were it would never
have become so fashionable among so
ciety dames as it has done.
Asa matter of fact, you only feel a
slight prick now and again when you
are being tattooed—that is to say, pro
vided the artist be a skillful craftsman.
During the course of a chat Mr. Al
fred South of Cockspur street said:
“For obvious reasons I cannot give
you any names, but my clients are of
all classes, including bishops—l did a
large cross crushing a dragon on the
arm of one whose name is a household
word in everybody's mouth—members
of the aristocracy, Salvationists, royal
dukes, princes and foreign nobility of
all countries.
“Quite a large number of men In
Colonial regiments, such as Paget's
Horse, Robert's Horse, and so forth,
who have been invalided home have
come to me to have the badges of their
regiments tattooed on their arms.
“You would no doubt like to hear
about what I consider to have been
my most remarkable achievement. It
was the case of a lady w'ho. having no
eyebrows, came to me a short while
ago with the somewhat remarkable re
quest that 1 should tattoo her In such
a way as to give her the appearance
of possessing dark brown eyebrows to
match her hair.
"I hesitated first of all, for It was
somewhat of a dangerous undertak
ing; but in the end I consented, and
my client went away delighted with
the result of my labors, and I ant proud
to think that 1 succeeded so well that
nobody would for a moment imagine
that the fine, dark brown markings on
the lady's brows were anything else
but hair."
What will happen to the fair one
when her hair turns gray, should she
live to that period of life, is an in
teresting speculation, for nothing can
alter the color of tattoo marks. Per
haps she will find ample consolation,
not to say a source of pardonable
pride, in the fact that she will carry
about with her a permanent souvenir
of the fine color of her hair In the
days of her youth.
“I have frequently been asked." said
the tattooist. “to tatto pale lips red.
hut though I have succeeded In sup
plying the appearante of the eyebrows.
I have always considered the idea of
meddling with lips dangerous, and
make it a rule not to undertake such
cases.”

OTHER RACES THIS WEEK.
Ninety-Foot Yawl* and Seventy-
Footer* to Knee at Newport.
Newport, R. 1., Aug. 4.—Although
there is lo be no more racing for the
ninety-foot cup defenders until next
Saturday, the ninety-foot yawls, which
have had many interesting contests,
and two of the seventy-footers will go
out for races for two special cups to
morrow. The yawls—the Vigilant,
Navahoe and the British-built Alisa—
will race for the cup offered last Mon
day by the owners of the three cut
ters. In the race at that time only the
Navahoe started, for the Ailsa ran
ashore going out of the harbor, and the
Vigilant was at Greenport, L. I. Mr.
Royal Phelps Carroll, owner of the
Navahoe, refused to accept the cup af
ter winning it in a walkover, so an
other race was arranged. The race for
seventy-footers will be between the
Virginia, William K. Vanderbilt, Jr.,
owner, and the Rainbow, owned by his
consin. Cornelius Vanderbilt, for a cup
offered by Mrs. W. K. Vanderbilt, Jr.
This cup was raced for last August,
but was not awarded, as. one of the
yachts was disqualified.
KILLED HIS PARAMOUR.
Negro at Abbeville Commit* Harder
anil Escapes.
Abbeville, Ga., Aug. 4. —About 9
o’clock last night Charley Parish (or
Perry), a negro employed at the Hard
ware Manufacturing Company's mill,
shot and almost instantly killed Liz
zie Gibson, a woman with whom he
was living in a shanty near the rail
road depot.
A quarrel growing out of another
man's attentions to the Gibson woman,
it is said, led to the bloody deed.
After firing the fatal shot Parish
rushed from the shanty, and, sending
a random shot, though without result,
into a crowd of negroes collected in
front of the placq, made his escape.
It is reported that Parish was seen
at the brick yard early this morning,
and he may be captured to-day.
