Baltimore American. Athletie Women of Other Days. A searcher after curious facts has learned that uthlettc women are by no means a modern product, as Is gen erally believed. They flourished In the days of sal volatile, hoops, patches and inuff-ln the days when George II. was king. Ladles 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 a series of foot races for Indies in Hyde park wus organ ized. The first one was run amid great tntbuslasm of the populace, and the betting was high. Then stepped In tome cross grained old fellow, who persuaded the government that such races were unseemly, and they came to a sudden end. The Habeas Corous. The substance of habeas corpus was given In the famous Magna Charta of 1215, but us today understood the habeas corpus refers to tbe uct of lUT'J. Ibis act provides tbat any man tuken to prison can Insist on being brought by bis accuser before a judge, who shall immediately decide whether or not bail is to be given; that the ac cused shall have the quest ion of bis guilt decided by a Jury of twelve men and not by a government agent; that no one can be tried twice on the same charge; that every one may insist on being examined withlu twenty days of his arrest and tried by Jury the next session; that no defeudnut mny be sent out of tbe county for impris onment.

CONTINUATION OF MISS DAVIS DESCRIPTIVE LETTER LONE LY MOUNTAIN GRAVE. Following U a continuation of Ar va Davis' letter telling of the over land journey from Enterprise to Cen tral California: September 19 we left Pine Creek and just after rroailng the line and starting through California Mr. Da vis had to shed hU heavy coat, and put It away. He put his linen one ou. We all thought of what you Wallowa people told ua about California being so warm, but he aoon found the weather changeable, for It was really cold. His coat being put away so he couldn't very easily get to It, he sat and shivered and was very nearly frozen the balance of the day. As we had) our beds fixed oil the wagons the girls crawled Into bed and stayed here all day. We have now left Joosa lake. We made camp on Davis jreek, finding it very cold, in fact, colder than it has boon since wo eft Enterprise. September 21 we reached Alt urns m the north fork of the Pit river, ind camped over night. The altitude lore bclug 4,100 fuet we found it itlll quite cold. September 22 we traveled to Can by 24 miles from Alturas, on Pit river. Here we found a hot spring which was near by the road. There were rther hot springs around throrgh tho country. We changed our minds now about the weather being colder In -California than In Oregon, Driving an a short distance we stretched .-amp on tbe river. Shortly after 4 upper, It now being dark, Mr. Little ton and Arya and Vergle Davis, with tbe lanterns, startod out fishing, thinking that the light might help us aut some about catching them, and we failed. They are now convinced that dry land suckers are all tbat would bite. September 23 we started on and aoon reached a small mountain. At the summit we found a lone grave, about 20 miles away from any one. The tombstone was marked, "Albert Sghleflen, died in tho year 1S83." We drove on to the hot mineral lake, where we camped over night, with hot and cold water, which waa piped from the hot and cold springs. We all thought well to got rid of the Wallowa dirt on us, so as to give room for some of the California soil, hut we believe that the Wallowa soli U,the richest for It makes' a larger ahowlng. W all 'certainly enjoyed the baths, also camping there for we bad a fine camp ground. Near the place mentioned above were some fine alfalfa ranches, but a good deal of sand. (Continued on page t.)
