Various Sports OF Little Bows in Wet
Weather-Half Inch OF Rain.
Rain commenced to fall yesterday af-
ternoon and continued during the night
and at intervals in the day. Sixty-five
hundredtha of an inch Of rain fell by s
o'clock this morning and this put
a damper on the pleasures Of excursion
lists, who would have otherwise enjoyed
themselves st the seashore.
There are pleasures, however, that
even rain cannot spoil and which are
enjoyed only in wet weather,
BOYS on West Second street ap-
peared in their bare feet and seeing the
CUTTERS to be swollen Immediately went
on hunt for old TIN cans, which they
would drop in the stream and watch
them as they were carried down the hill
into the sewer. Other boys would get the
family umbrella and having hoisted it,
would parade up aud down the street en-.
joYing the protection afforded them.
In another part Of the city boys built

Small Attondance Yesterday Au-
thor's Views snd Suggestions.

Small Attendance vssterday-An Au-
thor's Views snd sucgestions.
Thursday IS the day set apart exclus-
lively for the use Of women st the free
bath house, and yesterday was the first
opportunity they had to dip their heads
beneath the waters Of the Christiana.
Tho attendance was small The soft
''muggyR weather of yesterday and the
low degree Of temperature. compared
with other days, viii partially account
for the small number OF women who
sought admission to the bath house
A man whose opinions on the advan-
tages Of swimming are worth quoting,
and who knows little of the dislikes
and pagtialities Of women, sald In con.
versation with an EVENING JOURNAL
reporter: sThis bath house would con
fer far greater benefits on women than
men, did they only avail themselves Of
the privilege Of using it generally. This,
however, they will not do, unless the
women Of this city materially differ in
that respect from any | have ever
known. While we point with pride to
the wonderful swimming abilities of
such experts as Miss Beckwith or Miss
Hall, II cannot be denied that women in
general have a great aversion to bathing
or swimming in the open waters This IL
partly attributable 10 modesty, although
that virtue Is not the only or the great
est cause OF this aversion. Many indeed,
who like the enjoyment and value its
benefcials effects are deferred from going
by the remnants Of false modesty, that
they construe to tie delicacy, which
makes the thought OF the bath room ap-
paling in the extreme. The tightly lsced
aud trussed fat women shudders
in anticipation az the picture
she would present when divested
OF her tRilor-made hsbilimenta, which
press and squeeze her mountain frame,
into SO many hills and valleys. The girl
with laced up waist and padded shoulders
could not besr the idea Of allowing her
female acqualntances TO know that hel
frame was no more perfect than that OF
ordinary mortals, and the waxen per-
fumed doll of course, would not allow hei
dainty countenance to be spoiled by those
horrid waters
He added "The habits of women ar,
generally seaentary and they would OF
that account be much more benefited by
an occasional plunge than men. Bathing
causes ths skin to quicken and the nerves
to relax; 1t stimulates the kidneys anC
the liver, and clears the way for tn,
elimination Of Impurities which clog th,
system and bring on ehroni,
ailments. For the reduction Of iesl
no more successful plan can bl
adopted, than frequent bathing exercises
while the strengthening OF the muscles
and the development OF the chest is the
certain consequences of habituAl swim
ming. If women put aside foolish pref
udices end took advantage of the bath
houses, chronic diseases would diminish
frames now weak would become strong
and home would be much more comfort
able for the change"
