DeIiRhts of Swimming.

Swimming is an athletic exercise that
has not received sufficient attention from
those interested in physical culture for
women. 1t is not only delightful amuse-
ment, but said TO be far more valuable IN
expanding the chest and developing the
muscles than almost any gymnastic exer-
else that is known. Comparatively few
women, even among those who at the sea-
side enjoy daily bath in the surf. are ex-
pert swimmers. They are entirely at the
mercy of circumstances in case Of sudden
danger. The expert swimmer learns to
be courageous and energetic in the water,
and her skill may be the means of saving
her own life or other lives Swimming is
usually taught in large swimming bath,
such as are connected with some gynna-
siums.-New York Tribune.

NO LAND ON WHICH THE SUN
SHINES

Possesses greater natural advantages than
our own, but there are portions of the great
grain bearing west and fertile south where
atmospheric influences prejudiciaI to
health, initiate against them in some de
gree as places of residences Heavy rain
falls and the overflow of great rivers, which
upou their subsistence leave dank vegeta-
tiOn exposed TO the rays of the sun, there
beget malarial fevers, and the inhabitants
are periodically obliged to use some medi-
cInaI safeguard against the scourge. The
most popular is Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers, preventive that has for over a third
of century afforded reliable protection to
those whom experience in the futility of
ordinary remedies for fever and ague has
taughe to substitute for them Whether
intermittent or remittent, miasmatic fe-
vers are conquered and ayerted by this
superb anti-periodic and fOrtify!ng medi-
cine as they are by no other preparation in
use. Use it, and abandon impure local
bitters.

YSLETA'S BATTLE.
One Mayor too Many in a Texas
Town,

Ell PAsO, Tex, July 12-The following
particulars in regard to the battle between
the rival mayors of Ysleta and their adhe-
rents, have been received here. 1t is
learned that the trouble originated in this
way: BenignO Alderette, as mayor of
Ysleta, had charge of the acequia and had
a couple Of men cleaning it out when Gaal
sent posse of armed men to drive Alder
ette's men from their work. Gaal claimed
that he was mayor and put his own men
to work and refused to discontinue
when ordered by Alderette to do
so. The mayor then secured a
warrant for the arrest of Gaal to place him
under a peace bond and deter him from
further interference with the acequia.
Gaal summoned his armed followers
around him and refused to be arrested and
the fight followed
The fight terminated in a peaceful sur
render at daylight TO a sheritf's posse.
Gaal who resisted arrest, can not be
found. Sixteen men have been arrested
and brought here to the county Jail. 1t
turns out that only one man was killed, a
Mexican Of Mayor Alderette's posse, who
tried to arrest Gaal. Another had slight
wound in the head.

WINAMOC, Ind, July 12-Two weeks
ago Mr.. and Mrs. w. Hatfield, prominent
society people, had born to them a double
child, a most peculiar freak of nature 1t
is pair of boy babies whose aggregate
weight is seven pounds. One child is per
feet in every respect, while a second is
without head. It's lower limbs, body and
left arm are perfect, but the left hand is
without little finger. Its right arm is
merely a rudimeutary growth of three
inches with a nail on the end of it, and re-
sembles in appearance an index finger
Both children are well and hearty, and
seem to be growing and developing as one.
The attachment of the second child to the
first is by fleshy union at the upper and
outer side of the umbillicus.

JAMESTOWN, n. D., July 12-On the
night of June Il last Northern Pacific
train was boarded at Salem, Y. d., by two
masked men, who terroriZed the train men
and got away with several pouches of mail
matter. One of the robbers was after
wards captured by sheriff's posse. On
his person were found a gold ring and gold
watch taken from the mail sacks and
about 500 in money. He was taken to
the Jail at Dickinson and kept there for a
few days and for greater safety removed by
the inspector to Fargo. 1t is believed now

They Will Sue the Members Who We're at
Cleveland for Contempt.

NEW YORK, July 12.-The New York
Flks are not disturbed over the action of
the grand lodge at Cleveland concerning
the expulsion of Arthur c. Moreland,
grand secretary of the order. They
now assert that the meeting at
Cleveland was unauthorized. Louis G.
Waehner, counsel for the New York lodge,
explains the situation this way: The Elks
were organized by actors in this city in
1871. We became duly incorporated under
the laws Of the state and had to be gov
erned by our state laws. A year ago it
was determined to hold the next general
meeting in Cleveland. We protested that
the Elks could not transact business out
side this state, but the motion was carried.
Lodges have been founded in small towns
of the west, and people were admitted into
the order who were not actors or literary
men. and who had no business
there. In many instances we found
western lodges used as political or
CARNATIONS. We thought it time to put
stop to all this, and to try and get back to
the original ideas of the founder. \ mem
ber asked for an injunction restraining the
grand lodge from meeting outside Of this
state and Judge Lawrence made the in
junction permanent. The grand treasurer
is a Boston man. and has about $500 in
his possession. We will sue for that in the
United States courts If 1t is necessary. We
shall have up for contempt of court all the
Elks who attended the Cleveland meeting
if we catch them in this state. In the
meantime we are perfectly content with
the situation"
