SPORTING. PEDESTRIANISM, The largest nudiencoof the week greeted Ta Chapelle at the Folly Theatre Inst ovening, “To-ulizht sha will finialt tho tnsk begun a month avo, uud there are but few who know what suf- feringe sho has undergone nnd I8 now under wolng, A week ogo it looked ss though ehie wight fail, but the difleulty with her stomach waa safoly tided over, nnd by Wednesday of the . present week sho was agaln in good shapey and sinee thut time no additfonal systems of fatiguo have manlfested themsclves. But, nlthough ske has nearly uccomplished the seif-fmposed fask, it must not be understood that It has nat been a terrible straln on her musclesand nerves, and entalled an amount of suflfering that not one woman In ten thousind could have endured, It wus ntereating during thie early hours of yester- dny morning to watell the patient and even cheerful manner with which ‘the littls woman responded to every tap of the bell. When all except & few stracglors and Ydrop-ins? had dee parted, she brought on the track with her n caty which followed bier around, ploying with the Jittle whip which the Madame has carried of Inte. 'They seemed to enjoy ewch other'a soclety {nmenzely, und, when the eat conld no loager o persuaded to run around, La Chappelie’s at- tendant joloed herand Kept her company for several hours, It 3 from 1to @ o'clock a, m. that tlie walker needs attention the most. With no audience or murle to encourage her, the tendency to sleep Is almost Irresistible, and e tnost ingenioun expedients are resorted to In order to ward ofl the effects. The last of theso dreary nights has been pussed, however, and ot 11 o'clock this evenlug the Madame can retire for o good long sleep, which no doubt she will upnreciate to the fullest extent, One cffect of the walk on La_ Chapelle ling been to cause a sumewhat painful but not dan- erous swelling of the calves of ler legs, the same ns fu the case of Miss Marshall, who has Jately been watking fn Washington, but o little rest will snon cure this, But l{r.nrlur pile wulking was mot the only attraction at the Folly last eveufng. A raco for tut men Was on the programine, and past expe- rience With thiis style of amusement had demoo- ftrated Lhat there'wns plenty of fun conoected with it. Corpulent individuals are proverblally’ roodt natured, nud thosa who have a fancy for pedestriniisin are no exeeption to the gencral rule, ‘Ihere wera several entries in last night's race, and, 08 all wero anzioustowin, theis walk roon quickencd into a doe-trot, this soon resolving itaell [nto a first-class run. Areund 1he ring gafioped tho masses of fat, pufing and blowing at every step,the crowd yelling ‘ttaclf hoarse at thelr Trantie efforts to ‘overtake the foremost man, who lrl(m 4 nlopg 08 11 the floor wus made of wlass. Mr. Jubn Brink, who laid o the leader's wheel for several lubs, finally put an o burst of apeed whicli carried him to the front, and he won one of the most interesting races seen since the Davles brothers apened tha Foliy as n pinco where everything in buman shape mlght have a chance Lo race, 4 At 1020 o'clock last nizht 2,603 quarter-miles had been completed, To-day being the last of the walk, and as iL {8 atso a -holiday, n largo number will doubtless take in the ‘walk, A ready n'larize number of seats have buen sold for this evening, but there ure still some left. ‘e Inst quarter will be done nt preelsely 11 o'eloek this ovenling, und IL s safa to say thut when thnt hour arrlyes the theatre will bo crowded 1o 13 wahla. i AN UNEMES ST o VLEN R R ONGATRE EVERY e Tf!l"l“\ll.nlll vam.u' the nr_llllnut oG [N ‘“\:l‘((lx r\l.lrrlun'(nmbdy Company. ) Y ... o Dircctor of Stage, A]ID bLJAIU i R . ..i)lnmnr- i Tionnisd Bucsens of WHIMS.
