Pole-vaulting Sport, to Try Man's Nerve. Contests at pole-vaulting, on account of the qualities of agility, strength and nerve the game requires, are always among the most popu- lar events with the spectators at athletic meetings. Most people, unless a mad dog were after them, would have a great deal of hesitation about even dropping off an elevation ten or eleven feet, no matter how soft the alighting-place might be. Your expert pole-vaulter, however, makes no bones about such a trifle. With his long, steel-point- ed pole grasped firmly in his hands, he comes dashing toward the up- rights, with the crossbar high above the ground; the steel tip is planted in the ground, the athlete makes a great spring, and, with a whoop and a rush, up and over he goes. Often he comes down on the loosened soil on his feet. That is easy. Sometimes he comes down on the hard ground at one side of or beyond the prepared spot. Then he feels as if his spinal column had been driven through the crown of his head. Or, maybe, the pole breaks. In that case, also, he may alight on his feet. But the chances are greatly against such good fortune. The two athletes under whom I saw poles break, struck as squarely as the struct- ure of the human body permits, on their necks. They are both alive, {Continued on page JO.) n OLAN'S HOTEu Cor. Main and Lawton Sts,, NEW RQCKELLE, 1 1 ^.cl^cr. ^lerrall C Corjclif s Irrjporlcd Goods.

Dear Sirs— There can be no doubt as to the sustain- ing power of the C hocolate. I satisfied myself of that on Saturday afternoon, riding strongly in a race six hours after a meal, having taken nothing meanwhile but a small piece of Kola Chocolate. Yours truly, W.M. C. GOULD1NC.

The renewed energy after taking is simply mar- velous. Mr. Harold Godden. Woodstock, 6th June. I may inform you that I have been a cyclist for 18 years, and have tried all kinds of things, but not one is a patch on Kola Chocolate.

There gets to be, after a while, a certain exhilaration in this taking your life in your hand, poising grace- fully with it away up in the air, and then taking your chances on bringing it back to terra firma with you. In one very sad case, though, at Rutgers College, New Brunswick, a few years ago, a student named Scudder lost his life, vaulting. He struck the crossbar, which broke and fell under him. One of the pieces struck on end, and poor Scudder, falling with all his weight squarely upon it, was impaled — the sharp point pass- ing entirely through his body. He died after a few hours of agony. The bar in this case was only seven and one-half feet high. Alexander Jordan, the New York Athletic Club's all-round champion, and the winner of the Herald's all-round Cup, barely escaped the same awful fate at Washington, at the national championship meeting last Oc- tober. The bar was 9 feet 9 inches high when Jordan tried to clear it. The pole, which he had never before tested, was untrue, and as he reach- ed the highest point, it shivered and splintered almost like glass. For- tunately, his momentum was so great that, though he struck the ground head first, he cleared most of the pieces. One jagged splinter, however, ripped his close-fitting Jersey costume for six inches, and tore the skin on his hips, but slightly. The soft dirt prevented him from sustaining a fracture of the skull. " Alec's " exhibition of pluck and nerve, when, with his thigh bleeding, his eyes and ears still full of dirt, and while the five thousand spectators were still holding their breath, he seized a heavier pole and cleared the height on his next trial, was the most remarkable ever seen on an athletic field. Since 1881, when he competed for the first time at a championship meeting, there has been no American vaulter to dispute the supremacy of H. H. Baxter, of the New York Athletic Club, at this game. Baxter began his career as a vaulter in rather a curious manner. He used to accompany his friend, R. H. Sayre, of Columbia, who was for three years the intercollegiate champion walker, to the old Mott Haven grounds, where the latter trained. Sayre, who was a fair high jumper as well, in- duced Baxter to try jumping, too. When the bar was at a height which Sayre was satisfied his friend could not clear, Baxter made a bet with him of a bottle of wine that he could get over it — not stipulating, how- ever, how he was to do so. Sayre, who suspected nothing, agreed, but ( Continued on page 32. ) BRANCHES AT 92d Street and 9th Avenue, 73d Street and lOth Avenue, And at West End and Seabright, N. J.

He got the " double, back-handed criss-cross," though, for after half-a-dozen unsuccessful trials, he fell against the standards with such force that he almost broke his ribs. As for Sayre, he has not ceased to enjoy the bottle of wine yet. But the result of the wager was a champion — for Baxter has practiced vaulting from that day to this with unvarying success. Baxter made his first try for a championship medal in 1881. He vault- ed 10 feet 3 inches, thereby taking second to W. J. Van Houten, of the Scottish-American Athletic Club, who at that time held the record at 10 feet 1 1 inches. The following year the championship was won by B. F. Richardson, a club-mate of Van Houten, who cleared 10 feet. Later in the fall Baxter defeated all the best men in a scratch contest at Boston. The championship meeting of 1883 resulted in the hardest fought contest ever known at the game. A dozen athletes competed, six of whom cleared 10 feet. The bar was then placed at 10 feet 6 inches, and Van Houten, Richardson, Baxter and Harry Toler, of Princeton, the in- tercollegiate champion and record-holder, succeeded in getting over. At 10 feet 9 inches everybody failed twice, but on the third trial Baxter suc- ceeded in getting over, while the others again missed. This gave the New York Athletic Club man the championship. He wasn't satisfied yet, though. So the bar was placed at 1 1 feet i inch, and Baxter, clearing this height also, broke the best previous record by i 1 /^ inches. (Continued on page j6.)

In 1884 Baxter again won the American championship, and, in addi- tion, secured the Canadian championship. He won again at New York in 1885, and the following year repeated his double win of 1884. In 1887 a team of English athletes, among whom was Tom Ray, of the Ulverstone (England) Cricket and Football Club, visited this coun- try. Ray took part at the championship meeting that year, and beat both Baxter and his record. Ray's vault was 11 feet finch. On October 8, at Elkton, Md., Baxter raised the record to 11 feet 4 inches. When he read the papers next morning to see what they had to say about his performance, he was surprised and chagrined to find that at Philadelphia less than half an hour after his own record-breaking per- formance, Ray had vaulted 11 feet 4-3- inches. One week later Baxter again took the lead, clearing 1 1 feet 5 inches at the New York Athletic Club games at Mott Haven. This performance still constitutes the best American record. In February, 1889, in the N. Y. A. C. gymnasium, Baxter did 11 feet 3 inches, which, considering the limited length of the run the size of the gymnasium affords, was really a more meritorious per- formance than the other. The style of vaulting that Ray practices is entirely different from the American, and suggests rather the balancing feats of the gymnasium than out-door athletics. As a means of attaining height simply, it is certainly a better style than Baxter's. It does not, however, afford the same scope for the all-round athletic qualities required by the American method. To vault as Baxter does one requires the spring of the high jumper and the speed of the sprinter and above the waist the development ( Continued on page jS. ) KNOLL. riBD 4 CO, FfiH DEALERS 299, 301 305, 305, 307 and 332 r \A/ > ashiRgtcm 3/Carket ?

I TRIAL OF OUR VARIOUS WINES 18 TNVTTBD, 38 NEW YORK ATHLETIC CLUB. of the gymnast. The Englishman, it would appear, has need only of de- velopment of the upper part of the body. Baxter usually takes a run of about forty yards when vaulting. He starts slowly, but at the take-off is running at top speed. He holds the pole — which is of ash, and nearly two inches in diameter at its thickest part — with the palms facing each other, the right hand being eighteen inches or two feet above the other. The lower hand grasps the pole a little below the height of the bar which is to be cleared. To the eye it appears that the steel point of the pole is fixed in the ground and the spring made simultaneously. Really, though, the athlete jumps first, and plants the pole as he begins to rise. As the pole nears the perpendicu- lar, the vaulter, who holds himself perfectly rigid, raises the body. The moment the pole is in the vertical position he swings the body, by strength of the big muscles of the back and arms, horizontally across the bar. As he does this he turns so that he faces the bar. A final push is given against the pole to throw it back and keep it from displacing the bar, and then the lower hand is jerked up and over. Very often' there is just an instant's delay, and then the left hand, which is the last part of the body to go over, will knock down the bar. As Baxter depends for the force of his rise more on his speed at the take-off than anything else, his vaulting is manifestly affected by the con- dition of the track. A muddy path or an adverse wind will make a dif- ference in his performance of from three to twelve inches. Neither wind nor track, however, have any great effect on Ray — the Englishman trusting but little to his speed to get over the bar. On the contrary, he runs toward the take-off quite slowly. Instead of placing his left or lower hand ten or eleven feet from the end of the pole, as Bax- ter does, he takes hold where the latter would for a vault of 8 feet 6 inches. His rise is characterized by none of Baxter's rush; but as the pole is poised he slips the lower hand quickly against the upper, raises the latter half a foot, and again slipping up the left, continues this proc- ess half a dozen times, or until the pole gets off its balance. At the last possible moment he draws up the body with a jerk and swings himself over; but, unlike Baxter, with his back toward the bar. To afford better advantages for this balancing feat, Ray uses a pole shod, not with a single point like Baxter's, but with a big tripod. Besides its other advantages, there is a smaller chance of this triple point slipping; nor does it sink two or three inches in the ground, as the single point does when the ground is at all soft. In the fall of 1889 E. L. Stones, a club-mate and pupil of Ray, also came to this country in search of athletic glory. He had, in 1888, at Southport, England, slipped his hands up and up and up until he was high enough to get over the bar at 1 1 feet 7 inches. Fortunately for him, however, Baxter was suffering from a strained arm, received from a bad fall at the N. Y. A. C. games in the summer, and was unable to compete; otherwise he would surely have beaten the Englishman, who appeared to be unable to get into good form in this country, and whose vaulting was very indifferent. Shortly after Stoncs's return home the question of the triple point for poles came up before the Amateur Athletic Union, and a rule was passed which forbade the use of anything else than the straight tip. It can easily be seen that without any restrictions on this point, a pole might be so (Continued on page 42,) NEW YORK ATHLETIC CUTS. :«;» ALGERIA * HEIGHTS. IN-THE-PINES.

Mr. Baxter owes his success in athletics to some natural aptitude for the sport he has made his specialty, but more particularly to hard, per- severing work. He never enters a competition unless thoroughly " fit." Usually, he prefaces his work of preparing for a contest by a course of all-round gymnastics, including work with the dumb-bells, Indian clubs and chest weights. Then he begins out of doors with running. It is only when every muscle is in good condition that he actually begins to prac- tice vaulting. He practices high jumping and hurdling as well, and gives a great deal of time to sprinting. In practice, he never vaults more than 10 feet 6 inches, or 1 1 feet, preserving his greatest efforts for competi- tions. As the game is one which does not require prolonged exertion, he finds it unnecessary to pay much attention to the question of dietetics, and is only ordinarily careful about what he eats. Ulverstone, England, the home of Ray and Stones, produced several other good vaulters — notably E. Woodburn, who was at one time cham- pion of England. So popular did the game become in that town through the performances of these three champions, that the boys there practiced no other sport. They had no fixed season for the game, as boys in this country have for football and baseball; but the whole year round would run and vault until every one of them became an expert. A cer- tain philologist, therefore, has surmised that the phrase we hear so often in this city, " Ah ! take a run and jump up in the air," might have orig- inated in Ulverstone. Walter C. Dohm.

Everything that tends to the protection of gentlemen who have occasion to buy or to sell horses is naturally of interest to a very large class of New Yorkers, and for this rca-on the establishment of I'attersalls (of New York), Limited, is well worth more than a casual inspection. On another page we give a good picture showing something of the interior of the beautiful building, at 55th Street and 7th Avenue, in this city, occupied by that company as it-, Sale Repository. • Mlier views have been made, but that which we give, supplemented by our pen picture, following, will Ik- suf- ficient to send many ot our readers to see for themselves the most complete and elegant establish- ment of its kind in the world. The last century was yet young when the house of Tattersall was founded in London, and from that day to this it has occupied a unique position in its business, from the fact that it h 1- never made a mistake, nor has any one doing business with it had cause for dissatisfaction. While its affairs have grown to enormous proportions, and its fortunes have waxed accordingly, its name long since became a synonym for business probity and honorable dealing. The card ilia! principle upon which its transactions are based is that it is simply a commission agency to brine buyers and sellers together, and that it therefore does not in any way deal in horses. It allows no bidding by an owner or any agent, at absolute sale, and when reserve prices are placed on animals, that fact is fully understood by everyone. There are thus no sham sales, and the usual fear of being swindled in a horse deal is entirely removed. In its long and successful career every conceivable detail or practical question germane to its business has been encountered, and its system has thus become as nearly perfect as any thing mun- dane can be, Tattersalls (of New York), Limited, is a branch company of the famous London house, and the only one in existence. It has brought to New York the same principles and methods .„ those by which the parent house has been governed. The results of such an enterprise, so conducted, cannot fail to establish the New York Company very quickly in the esteem and confidence of the' Ameri- can people. i'he Sale Repository above mentioned is very admirably located, where animals can be taken into the Park without encountering the elevated trains. It is a vast building, octagonal in form the mam interior affording a circular ring 400 feet in circumference, while the angles cut off, to- gether with a wing, furnish ample room for offices, private rooms, etc. The ground floor where sales are conducted, and horses are sold, exhibited, and exercised, is brilliantly lighted by dav from the lofty glazed dome, and by night by electric lights. The outer circumference affords a fine show or exercise ring, which can in a few minutes be occupied by a circle of box-stalls, ingeniously con- trived to close up against the wall when not required for use. The second and third floors are fitted with two rows of stalls, single and boxes, the latter so constructed that in case of emergency, each box can be quickly converted into two single stalls. Between the rows of stalls, broad corridors, covered with cocoanut malting, extend. In every detail and appointment the best and most approved stable methods have been used. The upper floor affords storage room for an immense number of vehicles of all sorts. Although the place affords stabling for 250 animals, there is little suggestion of a huge stable as one passes in through the handsome entrance, and enters the ring on the ground floor. Hand- somely finished galleries, which, by the way, are carpeted and furnished with chairs, run around the inside of each floor, and with the skylight overhead, give to the place rather the appearance of a Roman Amphitheatre, than of a prosaic Auction Mart, an illusion that is heightened by the grated doors that close the runways, and that suggest the den of concealed Lions or Tigers. In the offices are registers showing just what animal is in ea.h stall, and by a system of electric bells, any one wanted is promptly produced in the ring. The special features of the business of this company are. of course the sale bv auction, or pri- vately, of all classes of horses, carriages, saddlery, etc., under the approved methods of the parent house in London. To make this enterprise a success, the company does not rely entirely upon its fine building, advantageous location, or admirable system, but seeks in every way to make its establish- ment attractive and agreeable to those who hold social power, and to remove from it everything of- fensive, so far as this is possible. The Managing Director is Mr. Wm. Kaston, long and favorably known to the horsemen of this country in this line of business, and perhaps more widely known as a magnetic and wonderfully successful auctioneer, who has conducted many of the most phenomenal sales ever held, and who possesses the rare faculty of making so dry a subject as an auction an interesting entertainment. The Treasurer of the company, Mr. Horace Theobald, is well known in England and in this coun- try as an unusually erudite horseman, and careful business manager. 52 NEW YORK ATHLETIC CLUB.

Although these rods enjoy the reputation of being the very best rod made, there may be some tilings about them that you have not heard. DO YOU KNOW that each rod is made singly and separately ? DO YOU KNOW that the ferrules, and in fact all of the mountings, are of the very high- est quality, made from the paw material on the premises, and are mandril drawn, thereby in- suring a degree of strength that it is impossible to get in any other manner ? DO YOU K \OVV that all of the strips and joints are fitted and balanced with a care resul- ting from an experience of thirty-five years? DO roll KNOW that each Leonard Rod is guaranteed absolutely perfect in workmanship and material ? If you have never examined a "Leonard " closely, call in and we will take pleasure in showing you their points of superiority over any and all other roils.
