To-NIGHTs ATHLETIC GAMES.

At the Second Regiment Armory.
Yale's annual athletic games will
take place at the armory this evening.
New tracks have been laid out for the
occasion. They We're laid out under
the direction of Engineers Bogart and
Sperry. The main running track has
fourteen laps to the mile and the curves
are of thirty feet radius. They are
built up on an incline of two and one
half feet at the highest point in order
to overcome the centrifugal force of
the runners in turning the corners.
This course has three and one-half
laps to the quarter mile. Diagonaliy
across the armory a fifty-yard straight
away course has been laid out for the
fifty-yard dash and for the hurdle
races.
There will be a big throng of spec
tators at the games tonight and a very
interesting exhibition is assured. Be
sides the Yale men to participate there
will be athletes from Harvard, Boston
Athletic club, Princeton and University
of Pennsylvania, together with mem
bers of the c. N. G.
A large force of carpenters was busy
at the arnory last evening building
tiers of seats about the sides Of the
floor The seats will be arranged in
circus fashion and win accommodate
about 1000 persons.

CISNEROS
The Beautiful Cuban Girl Whose
Persecution Has Aroused
Public Opinion.

Evangelina Cossio Cisneros, th'
beautiful Cuban girl, whose p%ersecu-
ton by Captain-G General Weyler'f
agents has aroused public opinion in
New York, is a relative OF President
Uisneros, OF the Cuban republic. The
~senorita has been sentsuced to twenty
years Imprisonment In the horrible
penal settlement OF Ceuta, and every
effort is being made to save her from
this awful fate. The Pope has been
appealed to by Mrs. julia Ward Howe,
and Mrs. Jefferson Davis has written
to the queen Of Spain, asking that she
take action to stop exception OF the
court- martiaPs sentence.
Miss Cisneros, pending her trit, was
locked up in a prison Of Havana, use
only for the most degraded OF women
She was treated with all the brutality
of which Wey ler's men can be capable,
and was then s~eHtenped to o worse than
death punishment, and all BECAUSE she
had the blood OF The Cisneros family 10
her veins.
A lady, now In New York, who was
incarcerated with her in Havana, thus
describes the fair Cuban: "Her feat
ures are perfect. Her large eyes
shaded by brows that could not be
more artistic il q master hand had
painted them, are soulful and express.
i've to q degree that bsfie IS description
She 10 Of girlish figure and medium
height, and has shapOly hands and
small feet. Her mouth is not too large
or too small, and her teeth and waving
hair complete a personal y Of rare at
tractiveness."

Eat hi Whole Bird.

From the Las Cruces Democrat.
A few Territorial papers, with the
Las Vegas OPrrc, for a time conspicu-
ously urgent, have insisted that Gov
ernor Otero should remove Territorial
officials, duly confirmed by the council
of the thirty, second legislature.
Now, looking through its "hind
sights" or. possibly, through a new
set, THE OPTIC advises on different
lines altogether, no doubt actuated by
the reflection that it is never too late
to rectify a wrong. While we do not
take much stock in .sdeath-bed re-
pe~ntances," we are ready to give
THE OPTIC the benefit of a
doubt, after asking for informa-
ton on but n point, VIZ:
II THE OPTIC is SO earnest in advo-
cacy OF removing officers for any
other than political reasons, why did
it not head the procession and urge the
removal Of collectors and Others, who
had failed TO make settlement with the
Territorial auditor, in compliance with
the lawp
