REDONDO.

The weather was somewhat cooler
yesterday. but quite pleasant and just
the day for fishing. A good many per-
sons came down from Los Angeles and
spent the day on the pier angling.
Their efforts were rewarded by the
catching of fine lot of yellowtails and
mackerel. The local fishermen shipped
several hundreds pounds of fish to the
city.
The Redondo company proposes erect
ing another bath-house soon, to be re-
served for the use of the guests of the
hotel. 1t will be situated on the beach
below the hotel, and hot salt water
baths will be added. A great many 9TH
er Improvements are also in progress,
and no advantage to be had in any other
resort will be wanting in Redondo.
Last evening was an enjoyable one at
the Redondo hotel, besides some fine
music several new and amusing games
were introduced.
Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. Gentry were at
the beach yesterday.
A party from Pasadena passed de-
lightful day at the seaside.

Country Recruits for the Army.

Those whose business has called them

to notice the very highly colored posters
adorned with pictures of men in blue, on
foot and mounted, that have been freely
distributed in the country towns to al
lure young men from the farms into the
service of the standing army of the
United States This is "a changing of the
work Of the recruiting Offices from the
cities to the country which cannot fail
to be of marked benefit to the personnel
of the army. There would seem to be
no reason why service in the standing
army should not be made sufficiently
attractive and honorable to make posi-
BILE the filling of the ranks with men who
would be credit to the country, and of
adequate service to it whenever there is
need to make use of its soldiers.-Wor-

There has just been discovered near
Nogent-sur- Marine band of boy rob-
bers, who plundered untenanted villas
and hid their booty in cave, like Ali
Baba's Forty Thieves. The chief of the
burglarious confederation is a youth of
fourteen named Vincent Legrand. He
was captured in field, and gave in
formation about his companions, who
were arrested by the gendarmes as they
were preparing to enter their cave. Two
of the precocious rascals were only

Executed by Birds.

Under the caves of the Schroeder
building there is bird box which is in
habited by sparrows. The other morn
ing the birds coolly and deliberately
hanged one of their number for some
offense, suspending it on thread by the
neck until death ensued. The birds
then tried to cut their dead companion
down, and picked its neck in their efforts
to do SO until it was much mutilated,
They failed to accomplish their object,
however, and the body was removed by
one of the spectators. Lock Haven't Pa.)

President Hayes's Annual Address to
the Association.
PITTsBURG, Oct. 10.-The twenty-frst
annual congress of the National Prison
association opened this evening in Car
negie hall, Allegheny. Governor Pat
tison, who was to receive the delegates
on behalf of the state, was unavoid-
ably detained, but was ably repre-
sented by Adjutant General Nc
Clelland. Mayor McGourley well
coined the delegates on behalf of
the cities of Pittsburg and Allegheny.
The president of the association, ex-
President Rutherford B. Hayes, then
delivered the annual address, dwelling
on the reform needed in the present
methods. The salient points were
that if the jails and lock-
ups in our country, 1000 or
5000 in number, are in truth as they
often have been aptly termed compul-
sorry schools of crime maintained
at public expense, we shall have
from this quarter alone an
accession to the criminal classes
in each decade, OF ofperhaps forty thousand
trained experts in crime. He urged
above all things reform i'll the manner
of dealing with the young, the beginners
in law-breaking. ''The professional Grim
inal, said Mr.. Hayes, belongs in prison.
To the question: ''How long should he
be kept there, the answer is until he is
cured of his criminal habits, if it keeps
him convict to the end of his life."
Mr.. Hayes also dwelt aC length upon
the question of what should be done to
protect and encourage ex-convicts on
discharge from imprisonment, instead
of, as now, in many cases, bounding
them back to crime.
