Outdoor Sports for Girls.

We pity the mother who thinks her
daughter too nice to be allowed to
have a wild run in the fields, and en-
JOY refreshing outdoor sport. Gro
quet is o nice game for the lawn, but
there Is not enough vigorous exercise
in it to bring oil the muscles OF the
body into action. To look buxom is
to look healthy, and rosy cheeks ore
always becoming when painted by
nature. The mother who desires her
daughter to look delicate for the sake
Of an appearance Of refinement has %
false modesty, and will some day see
her mistake The development of
limbs is as essential rs the develop
ment of brains, and without the form
er the latter cannot successfully be
done

There are no streets ii our city SO
attractive as those which arc planted
with shade trees, and property own
ers should by no means neglect to
plant them in front oftheir residences.
During the hot summer months, when
the sun glares down on the bare dns-
y highway, and bis rays refract from
the red brick walls of the houses ID
streets where no shade trees are. you
will observe the weary pedestrian
turn aside and eagerly step into those
streets where the maple and the horse
chestnut spread out their friendly
shade. Nothing so enhances the ap-
pearance Of D town or 50 beauties it
as an abundance Of inely growing
shade trees. Our local Improvement
Association has done much the past
year to bring about this feature of
adornment of our city.

Hail fell, it is said, the size Of hen
eggs, and destroyed the tobacco crop

damaged the corn crop considerably,
stripping the blades from the stalks,

At Birdsville, there was q very fine
rain, of about two hours, with slight
bail, doing very little damage. The

EVENTS OF THE DAY.
Indians Hung.

At Battleford, N. w. T., the 9Th, the eight
Indians convicted Of crimes in the late
Riel rebellion, were hanged. The names of
the Indians were Red Arrow, Miserable
Man, Wandering Spirit, Iron Body, Man
Without Blood, Little Bear, 1kia aud
Round-the-Sky, and their crime was in con-
nection with the Frog Lake massacre.
Prior to the execution all made confession
but all remained unmoved and Indifferent,
and some even defiant to tho last
This was especially truo Of Wandering
Spirit, who declared he was not sorry for
what he had done, and that if he had the op-
portunity he would do it again. When the
time for tho execution arrived, the eight
prisoners were marched to the scafrold,
under strong guard OF mounted police.
Tho gallows was formidable affair, made
to accommodate the entire lot at one time.
Ascending the scaffold each one was placed
on their respective trap. While the priests
prayed the Indians chanted the death song
peculiar to their tribe. This chanting
continued even after the white caps
had been adjusted. 1t was
Sis when the inspector Of police gave tho
signal and a little half breed who was act
ing as hangman, gave the lever a swing,
the bolts shot back, and the eight Indians
were dangling in the air. In the fall the
necks Of several were not broken, but life
was soon choked out of them. They were
allowed to hang half an hour, when they
were cut do wn and the usual post norton
examination was made, aud the tragedy
was ended. It is estimated thou
sand people witnessed the execu-
ton, which was consunlmated without
hitch or exciting incident. Originally II
Indians were expected to be hanged. but
three had been respited for reasons. The
execution gave great satisfaction to the
white residents

Aged PuRilists.

Thomas h. Lowther who is said to
be two-or-three millionaire, visited
his Adams street property, consisting
of several acres in the vicinity of Cali
ifornia avenue, and was Mortified to
find horse and colt grazing on a por-
ton of his fenced-in prairie. The par
ticular piece of property is leased to
one Mittendorf, with special proviso
that no animals shall pasture thereon,
and also that the owner may at any
time take the land for building pur-
poses. Mittendorf has it sub-lct to a
gardener, and the gardener allows
Daniel Carroll to pasture his mare and
colt there. Lowther was very angry
and turned the animals out on Adams
street. Carroll soon found his mare and
colt on the road, and he got angry also
He drove the animals back and Lowther
barred the way. Lowther is over sixty
years old, and Carroll is over seventy,
and it looked as if the old men were
going to have battle. Carroll didn't
know who Lowthcr was. and told him
to ''clear right out thar, the meddlin'
old fool Iowther's chest swe;led
with million dollar indignation.
aud he struck Carroll with his stick.
Carroll got out a warrant for his arrest,
and Police Justice White re-
duced Lowther's millions by ten dol
lars.

FOREIGN AFFAIRS.
Death Of King Alfonso,

King Alfonso of Spain died at SAB, the
morning OF the 25th. after a brief illness.
Following the death Of the king the cabinet
held meeting aud appointed Queen Chris
tina as regent, and then in accordance with
the law resigned, Seuor Sagasta being
designated by the Queen to form a new
cabinet. King Alfonso was the eldest son
of x-Qneen Isabella, ana the twelfth mon
arch OF the name who has ruled over Spain.
He was born Nov. @, 1857, and Jan. 5, 1875
he assembled the throne. He married Jan.
q, 1878, in Madrid, his cousin, the Princess
de la Mercedes, infanta of Spain. The
queen died June 26, 1873, and in November,
1879, Alfonso married his second wife. Ma
ria Christina, daughter of Arch duke
Charles Ferdinand of Austria. By this
marriage there has been two children, Ma
ria de las Mercedes, Princess Of the Asturi
as, and the Infanta Maria Teresa Isabel.
During King Alsonso's occupancy of the
throne, he succeeded in restoring COM
paratiyely tranquility and prosperity
to Spain which had been dis
rupted and impoverished by frequently re-
curing revolutions for years before, but
at no time has the revolutionary spirit
been entirely subjugated or run over
to the reigning power, and it is there

Enbezzled and Skipped.

The 2th, the discovery was made by the
officers of the Second National bank of St.
Paul. that Walter B. Smith, paying teller
of the bank, had embezzled $500 in cash,
and absconded. Smith came to St. Paul
two years ago, bringing with him letters of
high recommendation, including one from
the officers of the Canadian Bank of Com
merce, in which he had been employed. In
st. Paul his conduct was circumspect and
he had entie to the best society, in which
can be included membership in the Episco-
pal church, Notwithstanding his theft and
flight seem to have been long premeditated
and planned: no Information has yet
been secured as to the direction he took in
bis flight, but indications point to Aus
tralia. The bank will lose nothing by the
affair, as his bond was by the American
Guaranty Company of North America.

COurtesy in Mexico.

One trait of the Mexican character
deserving of all praise is the national
love for children. Mexico is the chill
dren's paradise. Children are loved
and petted in public to an extent that
makes an American, used to the stolid
ways of his own country people. open
his eyes in establishment and pleasure.
There is no affection in the matter. 4
little child is the pet of the people. A
baby is every ones admiration, and
here yon may see fathers out walking
with their children for the pleasure of
the children's company. In shops and
all places where people meet
children are petted, and a baby in a
shop is seized and carcssed by an army
of male admirers.
The courtesy of the young lads is an
other feature to be noted. A group Of
lads from Z to II will meet, and each
boy will decorously lift his hat and SAL
utatlons OF extreme courtesy will be
exchanged, and then comes the boyish
chatter, the fun and the laughter the
same as anywhere. Boys here treat
their elders with respect. An old man
or woman is not the butt of the youth
OF Mexico; rather for the old people is
reserved the shadicst seat under the
trees in the parks and the best seats in
the family sala.
A Mexican girl or boy on entering a
room walks around among the company
shaking hands with all. and on leaving
the room does the same "lIrhan;+>. e
taught in the public schools as arithmc-
tic is at home. There is no hrusoue,.;e
in this population: no one is jostled on
the street: the best seat in the horse-car
IS promptly given up ,o the ladies, who
never fail gracefully to acknow ledge
the favor. | have never seen a Mezi-
can gentleman fail to give his seat to a
woman. whether she was richly or
poorly dressed. and this is invariably
don. with courtesy.
