Before an audience that completely filled the Living Room and the gallery of the Union last evening, Mr. A. Fukuta and three of his pupils gave an exhibition of Jiu Jitsu, the Japanese art of self-defence.
Mr. Fukuta and one of his pupils illustrated a number of throws and passes, and two of his pupils had a "scuffle" which showed more throws and grips. Mr. E. O. Parker, an assistant in drawing, and ex-champion amateur wrestler of New England, then accepted Mr. Fukuta's challenge to a friendly match which the Japanese wrestler won by getting a strangle hold on his opponent after a very even contest.
