ATHLETICS FOR WOMEN.
Games of English Girls and their Nat
fional Habit Of Ridings


The opening Of the WOman's col
lege athletic grounds next autumn
will make new departure in Ameri-
can institutions Of learning for wom-
en-. The physical director Of the col
lege has spent some time in England
studying the games in vogue among
English Girls, and says that one Of the
most int 1esting sights at Girton or
Newman colleges is the athletic
ground, where girls enter into all
sorts Of healthful sports, such as erick
ct Slightly nodified) golf, hockey,
archey. tennis and hves. The colleges
have their regular sport days, when
guests are invited to witness contests,
just as in mems colleges. The girls
enter into these games with the boys,
too, as in tennis. The outdoor exer-
else is kept up all the year round, and
its beneficial effects are shown in the
fresh bright faces Of the girls, their
powers of physical endurance and
their defiance Of the weather. which
seems most surprising 10 the Amer
lean visitors. Thousands of English
girls and women may be seen riding
horseback in the early morning while
the games that our girls would deem
proper only for their brothers are quite
the thing in England. Just now all
England is running TO golf, game
played in a large grass-coyered space
with tiny balls and odd little hooks
or clubs, by means of which the ball
is propelled over the ground Hockey
is another popular game with girls,
though it is somewhat rough. 1t IS
played on a smooth, level rectangle,
with the players divided into two
groups occupying the two ends Of the
GROUND. A stick with a thick knot
ted end is used to knock the BAH from
the opponents end of the line. Eng
fish girls play cricket, too, and all
sorts Of games that send them tearing
excitedly over the fields and besides
these they turn the rivers into play
grounds too. where they fish and sail,
row and swim. This novel idea Of the
Baltimore college in making gymna-
stun work regular course in the
school, and compulsory exercise to
the students. is one which commends
itself to other institutions for women.
1t will be rather odd if the college
woman, of whom it has been prophe-
sled that close attention to study
would undermine her health, should
be the apostle of the new religion of
hygiene of all womankind as she now
bids fair to become with her gymna-
Sium and athletic chic

A BAD BOY.
How A PrecociOus YOungster Has been
Doing the Fair.

Doing the Fair.
One of the NEW COMMONS Chi
cago correspondent sends the follow
ing exploit of boy who doubtless will
soon land in a reformatory:
A young lad who gives his name as
Semple and his home as No. 321
Ontario street, was caught in the act
of slipping into Carlo street. Johnny
claims to have beeu doing the fair for
three months without costing him a
penny, More than that, he has ridden
back and forth on the Illinois Central
trains all that time, too, and the rides
have cost him nothing. If he hadn't
been too conflding he might have kept
up his free rides and free admissions
all summer, but in moment of eXul-
tation he conflded to a stranger whom
he sat beside in the car his great sue
cess. This stranger was Columbian
guard in citizens clothes. This
guard was on duty in front of Carlo
Street when he recognized the boy try
ing to get in.
Johnny is not more than 10 years
old, and is evidently a street arab
brushed up and one with educational
ambitions. He says he watches his
chances at the gates of the grounds
and to the various Midway exhibitions
until he sees a motherly looking wom-
an enter. He gets up close to her as
she passes the gateman, then he stops
and appears to be looking around until
the lady gets some distance away. He
then claims that the lady is his moth
er and that he is under years of age
Rather than get the boy lost from
his mothor he passes him in. John
ney says he has been doing the fine arts
lately, and that he has worked the
Intramural and Illinois Central trains
by means of a ticket which he had at
tached toa rubber fastened up his
sleeve. He would hold this over the
slot and let go of it when the rubber
would draw it up his sleeve again.
