Athletic Women of Other Days.
A searcher after curious facts has
learned that athletic women are by
no means modern product. as is gen.
orally believed. They f1ourished in the
days of sal volatile, hoops. patches and
spuff-in the days when George II.
was king. Ladies' of the court took
part In races arranged for them at the
regular meetings, so that there were
lady jockeys as well as gentlemen
Jockeys, and once series of foot races
for ladies' In Hyde park was organ
lied. The first one was run amid great
enthusiasm of the populace. and the
betting was high. Then stepped in
some cross grained old fellow. who
persuaded the government that such
races were unseemly, and they came
to a sudden end.
The Habeas Corpus.
The substance of habeas corpus was
given In the famous Magma Charta of
1916, but as today understood the
habeas corpus refers to the act of 1919
This act provides that any man taken

WAGON JOURNEY TO
CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
CONTINUATION OF MISS DAVIS
DESCRIPTIVE LETTER-LoNE
LY MOUNTAIN GRAVE.

Following Is a continuation of Ar
va Davis letter telling OF the over
land journey from Enterprise to Cen
trail California:
September 10 we left Pine Creek
and Just after crossing the line and
starting through California Mr.. Da-
Wis had to shed his heavy coat, and
put It away He put his linen one or.
We all thought OF what you Wallowa
people told us about California being
so warm, but he soon found the
weather changeable, for II was really
cold. His coat being put away so he
couldn't very easily get to 1t. he sat
and shivered and was very nearly
frozen the balance of the day. As
We had our beds fixed on the wagons
The girls crawled into bed and stayed
here all day. We have now left
Goose lake. We made camp on Davis
ireek. finding It very cold. In fact,
colder than It has been since we
eft Enterprise.
September 2l we reached Alturas
IN the north fork OF the Pit river.
md camped over night. The altitude
lere being 400 feet we found II
,till quite cold.
September % we travelled to Canhy
"A miles from Alturas. ON Pit river.
Here we found hot spring which
vas near by the road. There were
Jther hot springs around through the
country. We changed our minds now
about the weather being colder in
California than In Oregon. Driving
on a short distance we stretched
camp on the river. Shortly after
supper. 1t now being dark, Mr.. Little.
son and Arva and Vergie Davis, with
the lanterns. started out fishing,
thinking that the light might help us
out some about catching them. and we
failed. They are now convinced that
dry land suckers are all that would
bite.
September % we started on and
soon reached small mountain. AT
the summit we found lone grave.
about 20 miles away from any one.
The tombstone was marked, albert
Sghiefien, died In the year 1888
We drove on to the hot mineral
lake, where we camped over night.
with hot and cold water, which was
piped from the hot and cold springs.
We all thought well to get rid OF the
Wallowa dirt on us. so as to give
room for some OF the California soil.
but we believe that the Wallowa
soil Is the richest for It makes a
larger showing. We all certainly
enjoyed the baths, also camping there
for we had a fine camp ground.
Near the place mentioned above were
some fine alfalfa ranches, but a good
deal OF sand.
