During the meal the head of the house produced letter be had received from his son at West Point. stating that he had failed to pass the examination, and wa- coming home.

He braces himself firmly on his fore feet, stretches out his neck. depresses hi head, and his jaws open with graceful moderation. Al first it is but an exag- gerated grin, put when the gape is ap- parently accomplished, the dog turns out his elbows. opens his Jaws another forty-five degrees, swallows an imaCiu- ary bone by a sudden and convulsiva movement, cIrls mp his tongue like the petal Of a tiger lily, and shuts his iav- together with a snap.

Female Recreations.

Says The New York Mail and Express Several women followed the hounds ln
 the first hunt of the Newport season yesterday, and horseback riding IS rap idly increasing in favor as femlplne
 Dastime. IL is said that dancing was
 never so little ID vogue ct the summer resorts as during the present season, and fashionable women affect a preference for tennis and the trlcycle, while even the dudes declare their devotion to manly sports. l. is not difficult for per sons who believe what is fashionable in England IS sure to become fashionable m the United States to understand thls condition of things. for since Queen Victora purchased a supply of tricycles for her grandchildren that vehicle has become a iav0rits with the young girls Of england, and the popularity of lawn tennis among young English wOrle- ls well known. So eXcellaIt are the results of healthiul outdoor recrcatlons Tor women shat 1t is desirable tu have the fashion made permanent. It IS com- mon boast that American women are more beautiful than those of any other country, but 1t IS to be feared that the foundation for the boast will soon dls- appear unless our women can be ln- duced to take more exerclse in the open air. The good health of Englishwomen is attributable to their practice of walk ing several miles with daily regularity, and Il would be a national benefit if the custom were adopted by the women of the United States Among the indica- uOns of a growing taste for outdoor recerations for females in this country Is the fact that more good feminine swimmers are to be seen at the ocean beaches than in previous seasons.

A CONFIDENCE MAN.
\ Neat Game of swindIing Exposed in the Court

\ Neat Game of swindling Exposed in the Court.
 This morning l.. T. Hoffman was ar-
 raigned before Recorder Meyer, on n
 charge of obtaining money under false pretenses.
 This IS very grave offense under the Territorial Statues of 1883. wherein it
 Is made punishable by not less than one
 years imprisonment The same statue also constitutes conductors and brakes
 men as officers to make arrests necessi-
 tated by such offenses on the trains.
 As soon as Denis Walsh, the com
 blaming witness, was sworn, Hoffman asked for continuance for two days till he could get the money from Clifton to repay Walsh. The request was granted, with the consent of District Attorney Smith, on the condition that Hoffman also Day for the hotel bills oi Walsh and wife for one week past. Hoffman was then remanded to the custody of the sheriff till Monday at p. n.
 From Walsh a CITIZEN reporter learned the particulars Of the fraud. Walsh and his wife have been living all the spring at Clifton, and came down last week to Tucson to seek employ ment. At Benson they were approached by Hoffman, who also sometimes sails under the name of Graham. Hoffman claimed to recognize Walsh as an old Clifton acquaintance tan old storyl, and was very friendly. At Pantano Walsh and his wife got of, ir tending to go to see his brother at Total Wreck. and Hoffman came on to Tucson, and put up at the Russ house. Hearing that his brother had left Total Wreck Mir. and Mrs. Walsh came on to Tucson on the next train, aud also put up at he Russ house. Hoffman represented to them that be was an agent for the Golden Rule mine, near Summit station, and would hire Walsh either as night Watchman or miner, and hls wife could keep boarding house. The prospect pleased the Washes very much. At the depot the other evening Hoffman told Walsh he had to pay some freight bills. and be wanted five dollars. He showed Walsh some money cheeks Walsh re- piled that he only had three bits, taking thirty-fve cents out of his pocket, but would see his wife. Coming back to the Russ house he found his wife had noth- ing smaller than ten dollar greenback. After much hesitancy they let Hoffman have this. The lext day Hoffman said his freight bill amounted to more than he expected, and that besides his check he needed ten dollars to get back to the Golden Rule mine. They let him have this amount. Their suspicious being aroused by Hofnan's continual delay ID getting started to the mine caused them to watch him, and Walsh caught him playing at a faro game on Congress street. He then caused Honman's ar Test, with the result above stated

An Interesting Letter From the I.I Paso


 FL PAso, August II, 1883.
 Several months ago "Count" Telferner. brother-in-law to Bonanza Mackay, pur- chased l,5Ol0U acres of land m this county, covering 1900 section. The land belonged t0 General Russ and oth- CTS of Dallas. The sale Wa, made by Messrs. kneeland d Boring, real estate agents of this ely, and the prce az reed upon was seventy-five cents per acre. The time fer payment has passed, and the Count did not respond Evident y, Bonanza Mackay refused to endorse the prodigal who is building railroad- and buying land on wind. Steps are now being taken by the agents ct this city to annul the trade. It is understood that the Count is over about Galveston. travelIng Tn disguise to evade the servict of legal papers looking to an annulmeu, Of the fraudulent contract. He had evidently been to the City Of Mexico. engineering little job in connection with the Tamaulpais road, which is a continuation of his New York, Texas and Mexican road. 4 privat, letter was received here the other day from General Mexia stating that th, Mexican Government had confirmed the charter Of the latter road, with ''the mod ificatens" asked for. These "modifca- tIous" are an increase of freight and passenger rates. The road runs from Matamoras to 1axpan.
 IL has been discovered that the State grant to the Texas Pacific railroad, ac- cording 10 the present survey, embraces five hundrel sections of land more than was originally intended The land lies in this county. 4 new survey has been ordered by the State.
 Election excitement runs high. Both parties will hold mass-meeiings tonight. The citizens reform party will have grand torchlight procession. Bets of two to one are offered on Magoffin's cleo tion, with few takers. The citizens re- form ticket, with Magoflin at the head, will carry the day, it Is thought, by a three to one vote.

 took a trip around the surrounding country, including quite a distance iu Sonora, and found several quite rich mines, of which more anon. For graz ing purposes there is as fine a country as one could wish. It has an almost unlimited extent. Agri- culture is rather limited, but, no doubt, with the influx of population which must naturally come, it will form one of the great resources of wealth here.
 Our town has been quite lively for the past few days on account of the arrival of Lieutenant Summers with his soldiers and Indian scouts on the Mexico border survey. The Lieutenant, and the whole outfit of soldiers appear to be not only competent for the work assigned to them, but are a whole-souled, jovial and generous set.
