The boarders wanted to make complaint against John , charging him with assault with in tent to commit rape on the girl men * lioned , but before this could be done Uncle Stm reached hia ample hand after the landlord and pulled him in for celling whiaky to Indians. Then his creditors , while ilahno was in jail waiting for an examination , made a raid on his inn , at * taclnng his properly , and shutting up the hotel. J _ OymnaMlcH fur ( ! irln , II. Percy Dunn , Y R 0 S. , writes as follows to the London Standard : Thu progri'Bs of education' among young lid its moves apace and along with thr general advancement - good in most rospec'B thcro in to bo noted mi extend cd development of the prao'iruif gym imntioi The condition of I hint'a againot which Mr , Wilkiu Collins raised h ! voice years ngo in respect to young men in thu present day to ho on tliu voryu of being ret 1 zed in the case of ypnng women. The question , however , - rizi H ; With what object in vinw do. parents permit ilicir duughtrra to epgoqojs o uxtuntivcly in pymnnstict ? Is it for iho purpoio of oiitliling them to figure as inamberH of a muscular coininunity of which men of Ui urtwun cUsi rro typi- cal ropronenUtivcs ? And , ( U not this nhnt else is to bo gained by the transao tlonl What else , it isaskoot Of course it must bo good ; such oxcrciio ia bcno fiuial to all , especially in the CMO of those living for the most part sedentary lives. 1 admit a modicum of truth in this and 1 hold that gjinnastics are not harmful to any person , if the pntctlco of them is properly conducted. But hero ia the main point t f my contention The.ro are two fundamental foots , the duo observance of which should regulate the question of gymnastics among git-la , First , it ia essential to recollect that , in asmuch its the imi-cular development ol womim is naturally loss than than of mat there are many reasons anotomiwl and othcrivijp , fur believing that any attempt to ongogo in nuvero inutcuUr exercise ia bound to produce some distort ! in of the frame. For instance , the largo mass ol muscles composing the abdominal wall , owing the complexity of movement and the situation , develops much moro readi ly than do the muscles of the back , and consequently the abdominal muscle , un der the stimulus of gymnastic exercise speedily becomes hypertrophiod. This , together with the fact that the generality of movements In gymnastics imply a burling forward of the upper part of the body , ciuses the girl to stoop , or , in com mon parlance , to "poke , " and the back in time assumes an ungraceful rotundity. In view of this , docs it appear expedient to permit a young pitl to acquire an acrobatic batic abnormality without any concurrent advantage. Secondly it eocm evident that nnny ili are allowed to "take up" gymnas tic * who arj phylie-ally unfit for any such ixercirc , and ttien to r.qiiiro ono euch girl aho may not object , but thia ia her noakntas , not her fuult to perform a gymnastic feat savors of an unpardona- bio iudescrution , when on the completion of her tank aho retires to her seat breath less and deadly pbl > > , indicating the tx- tent to which her heart has autlered from the exertion. It ia poor kindness to ac- curd praise in such cases upon the suc cessful peiformanco if a leat which ia purchased at such a prico. But I do not condemn gymnastics for girla beyond the excessive extent to which they are prao ticod. Confined wjthin limits they are oven desirable ; extending these limits they are undoubtedly harmful. And , therefore , I say , no parallel-bars exorcise , no trapeze , no horizontal barer or ladder exorciao thould bo permitted ; but dumb-bell practice ad libitum , cum- b'nod with aa much drilling as may bo desirable. Everyone should bo diHied during the eatly period of adult ago , but the physique tf a woman is moro adapted than is that of man to profit by this form of healthful , useful exorcise. In con clusion , no girl should bo allowed to en ter a cyinnaotic class unless she can pro duce a medical certificate confirmatory of the fact that she does not sutfer from any organic it sufliciency which might bo aggravated by the physic * ! til'jrts in dulged in.

Tbo inside wall above fiis separating line sloped back for Rome distance before the perpendicular construction waa resumed , . making n larger apace between the ele vator und the walla , "i'lim was done , " explained the colonel , "to lesson the thickness of the walla , und thus lighten the vnat load of inaaonry on the founda tion. It makes the work several tons ' lighter , and leaves it strong enough to resist uny force it ia likely to bo subject ed to. "What in the character of the filling between the granit and the marblu blocnt'l" The Colonel looked at Mc- LaUj.hlin and smiled. "Thero ia no bitch thing aa 'tilling' or 'lucking' on these walls , " he said. "The solid blookb of atone are all closely joined.

"That is just 100 foot above the txllcst feather in the head dress of the goddess of liberty on top of the capitol dome. " Just before the elevator cmno into the broad sunlight the writer noticed the corbt h thrco projecting from rach side , tqiiidistant from oneh other nnd from the ungleo , the projection iiicionMtig with every foot of thu ascent.

Around thcao masta , a little below their junction , will bo a circle of metal , and around this citclu the horizontal arm of the derrick will awing free in uvery direction. On ttuut iron beams laid acrois trio top i f thu monument and projecting twenty feet over the edge on thu eatTt aide , it strung pint form w 11 be built. Tlio roof atonua will bu hoioUd by the elevator in tSo usual way to the top of the monument ment , and mil thin bo placed on an iron carriage und run out on the project ing platform. The arm of thu denick will then bo swung over the stone > , and it will bo hoisted and deposited in thu plrico for which it ie intended. Tno roof will bo a pyramid in form , like that on Bunker Hill monument , but much larger. The c < rbeli when fin ished will bo the atone ribi or supports of the roof. There ore three projecting from the inner surface of each wall. Tno four middle pms will bo brought closer together until they liavo nearly mot , and then a "four-way" keyatono will bo sot , uniting them. They will then present the appearance of two Gothic arches crossing each other at right analea. The intermediate eight after the two in each anglo have como to gether will be keyed by largo stones fit ting closely. On the atone rib-work thus 'ormod the largo flat foof-stonoa will bo .aid in such a manner that each course will rest upon the marble ribs and iot on the course below.
