In the game of ball between the Black River and the "Dauntless" base ball teams Saturday afternoon on the formers gn unds the '-Dauntless''club was defeated, but they came out very well, in the circumstances, to hold down their opponents a3 well as they - did. Two members of the team? including the pitcher?were not piesent; and moreover, some of the boys who did go kept looking at the girls instead of the ball. At last accounts one of these was seen going at full tilt up the Manning load, and he has not been seen here since. On Saturday, July 12, the two teams will try conclusions again on the local diamond, when the boys here expect to turn tables on the visitors. Blue ?t>kl. DR.

The polo matches and ! the races are over by the 1st of December, but cricket, golf and tennis go on all summer. Tenuis tournaments are held, lasting for several weeks. Most ' of these sports, with the exception of j tennis, which goes on all the time, take place on Sunday.

During a good season at ViDa del Mar one has an excellent opportunity of seeing the aristocratic Chileans of Santiago. In January Santiago is very warm, and tbe society people come down to tbe coast during tbe bot weather. Tbe ladies are many of them quite handsome. They all dress gorgeously and have very bad manners. They stroll along tbe hotel piazza, aDd If they see anything that arouses their curiosity in any of tbe rooms they stop and look on serenely, regardless of the occupant.

The only thing that was at all attractive for the women was the case of fancy soaps and perfumes, with face powders and cosmetics, and for the men the case of cigars. The soda fountain made the first innovation. It was no such pretentious affair as now dominates the corner drugstore, however. It stood modestly ou one end of the counter. There were five or six kinds of sirups and no ice cream or hot drinks. Later candy found a place in the apothecary's, then came stationery, and now there are all sorts of bric-u-bruc.?New York Tress.
