MILITARY DISPLAY.
An Aiiltmliiur lilt of Ituutliie In n Sen
\ rl Hotel.
There Is mi better place to nuirk the
Increasing love of military display ami
maneuvers than tin? lobby of a large
lintel. The colored lielp In particular
arc great soldiers. In one of the ltroad
way hotels uptown the colored liali
nienare changed at noon. Things were
Mulct in the lobby at that hotel today,
for the clerks and bookkeepers were
deep In their books, and the loungers
were all sitting peacefully on the so
fas when the steady tramp, tramp of
what sounded like a regiment of infan
try broke the stillness.
The regiment consisted of six col
ored halltuen In blue and brass, with
an especially resplendent mulatto in a
more gorgeous uniform walking at the
head of the procession, says the New
York correspondent of the Pittsburg
Gazette. He lined Ids six men in front
of a bench before tbe desk, looMW
them over sharply to see /hat they
were “eyes front" and hissed “Atten
tion!” Then as he clapped his hands
once the six men hinged their legs si
multaneously and drooped Into their
seats like a row of, wooden soldiers.
The mulatto wiped his brow with a
highly perfumed handkerchief, gin need
at the head clerk for approval and as
the tlrst man responded with a jerk to
Jlir cry of “Front!” went to the main
clour way to look at the sunlight of
Broadway with the air of a successful
major general. The whole perform
ance was excruciatingly funny, but 1
am sure that mulatto would have com
mitted assault and battery on any one
who dared to laugh.
The Woman anil tier Face.
Once upon a time a woman laid a
quarrel with tier features because they
made ugly faces at her when she
looked in the glass. She scolded and
scolded, but it all did no good.
Finally she sat lu front of her mir
ror. and with rouge, powder and black
pencil went deliberately to work to
show her fact; how wrong it was and
succeeded.
After a time she smiled a smile of
.ntense satisfaction, and her face
smiled pleasantly back ut her.

TICKET IN
THE FIELD
POPULISTS OF THE STATE WILL
HAVE ONE OUT IN ELECTION
WEDNESDAY.
The Atlanta Journal says:
Hon. Walter Steed, of Taylor coun
ty. representative in the legislature,
was at the capital ihts morning and
told several of the officials there thal
the ordinary of his county ban popu
list tickets which would he distri
buted and voted In the state election.
The ticket contains the name of a
candidate for every state house of
fice. and it Is headed wan the name
of J. K. Hines for governor, despite
the fact that Hines declined the nom
ination. It is understood tljat the
populists have sent tickets to other
counties to be voted in the election
next Wednesday.
Chairman axiward T. Brown, of the
state Democratic executive commit
tee, in an Interview in The Journal
last Sunday, called attention to the
fact that the populists were prepar
ing for a secret ballot and requested
that the demounts be on their guard.
Secretary of State Phil Cook says
hi> was officially notified by the popu
lists that there would not he any can
didates for the comity; election, aud
therefore no names have been printed,
on the blanks for the returns. Spaces
are left, however, so that the names
of all people voted for can be placed
on the returns.
If the populists poll a heavy vote
in the coming election the democratic
majorities will be cut down consid
erably, and Chairman Brown is an
xious that all the democrats should
be at the polls next Wednesday and
cast their ballots tor the democratic
candidates. ,

Simla, India, Sept. 27.—Further

i which lasted from Aug. 22 to Sep.. ...
show that in addition lo causing other

There were no premonitory signs,

THE WOODCOCK. '
Where Iloe* M Hide Daring tlie Molt'
in** >*•*#i ?
It Is during tbe months of August
and September that the mystery of
tin* woodcock's life begins. Tills is
tlie molting season, when the bird
changes ils plumage before beginning
its journey southward. At this time it
leaves the swamps. Where does it
go? That is a question which lias nev
er yet received a satisfactory answer,
although each sportsman and natural
Ist has his own opinion, and many fine
spun theories have been advanced.
Some say Hint the birds move toward
the north, some that tliev seek tin*
mountain tops, coining into the swamps
to feed only after nightfall; some that
they seek the cornfields, and there
have been many other such theories.
Probably the truth lies in a mean of
all these statements. I think it prob
able that the birds know tin* loss of
their feathers renders them to a cer
tain extent helpless and more exposed
to the attacks of their natural enemies,
and they therefore have the more open
swamps and hide in the densest and
most tangled thickets. It is certain
I that they scatter, for at this season
single birds are found in tin* most un
usual and unexpected places.
Years ago when shooting in Dutch
ess county. N. Y., i knew one or two
swamps, which we called molting
swamps, where in August we were
sure to find a limited number of birds.
These swamps were overgrown with
rank marsh grass and were full of
patches of wild rose and sweetbrier.
If we killed the birds which we found
there, we were sure in a week or ten
days to find their places filled by about
the same number.—Outing.
