Posing on elevated pédestals under brilliant lights, the winners of similiar preliminary contest all over the world showed their titanie muscles and brawny !gnbs in competition tor the final prize, The man finally selected, both by popu- lar vote and by decision of a Yury of eminent sculptors and physictans, as the Most perfectly developed man in all the world was the young American athlete Albert ‘Preloar. | ‘Freloar, who im show on this page in some of hin poses which won for him he $1,000 prize, in a resident of New York City and a graduate of Harvard Uni-| rsity, While at college, T was prominent as an athlete. He was a mem- ber of the ‘varsity i ont erews of 1895, 188 and 1897. He held the wrestling and [strength test championships of the university for four years. In his first year [he rewed in both the freahman and ‘varsity races on two successixe days, a eircumatance before unknown in Harvard rowing annals, Treloar's victory at the Garden laat week was not the first distinction which his superb development and classic proportions have won for him. if Dr. Sargent, of Harvard. the eminent authority on physical development, de. duced a set of average measurements from those of champion athletes in every hne, which average he regarded as representing the greatest all-round athletio eMctency, To the vurprise ot Dr, Sargent and his assistants, when Treloar pre- sented himself for physical examination according to the custom in the Harvard jeymnasium his measurements were found te correspond exactly throughout with the doctor's ideal average. Treloar, who at college and hefore going on the stage was known ag Albert T. Jennings, ts well known to theatre-goers through the ‘medium of his exhibl- tion of classis posing and feats of strength in vaudeville, One of, feats is raising a 56-pound weight and a young lady welghirfg M48 pounds with one hand slowly from shoulder to arm's length ahove the head.

A pei formance with pacermuker in front, Ww h ‘dirt shield,’ shall b orded with a distinguishing mark, referring to a note stating the fact.”” A New ‘Trotting Era, B+ \dopting this regulation the board has entered into a new era in the trot- ting-horse world. Hitherto it has not been customary, when progress has en- tered into and furnished an improv; ment for the purpose of increasing the speed of a trotter or pacer, to place the same in a special class. When the pneumatic sulky, toe welghts and other devices made their tppearance they were not given spec! haracterization, When a horse made 4 record with the ald of any modera appliance it was not so specified or fe- rded ip the year book. The new rule will not affect any of the champion records made last year jexcept that of Prince Alert. This horse paced a mile in 1.37 on the Empire City track. On this cecasion Prince Alert | was paced by avrunner that drew a cart which had an extfa piece of canvas at- | tached to it above the shafts, thus mak- Ing it a “wind shield” in addition to @ “dirt shield." Major Delmar also trotted a mile at this mect In 2.00, paced in exactly the same way. In fact, the same cart was |used for him that was employed in the |case of Prince Alert. | Delmar, however, trotted a mile at | Memphis in 1.59 3-4, paced by the ordi- hary “dirt shield,” thue Improving his kimpire City record. Classifying records made under the conditions of those established last year may have its moral effect; still {t is sate to predict that all future time records will be obtained under the same condi tlons until some other improvement ap- pears. Experts Give Opinton: Considerable argument was heard by the board on the protest made by Rov- ert E. Bonner against Lou Dillon's ree- ‘estimony from every possible source was offered. ‘Tom Eck, trainer of bicycle riders, gave expert testimony on the value of the “wind shield,” Others heard were Robert Bonner, ‘T. B. Armitage and H. K. Devereux. ‘Mr, Devereux appeared in the interests of the Cleveland Driving Club, _while heries Tanner represented C. K. @. illings, owner of Lou Dillon.

The latest is the promise by William Irving Hx:ilton, manager of the Am- herst track team, of the positive ap- pearance of Eaton, Hubbard, Taylor and Thompson in the college relay at one mile, ‘This is the famous team that at the Boston A.
