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. Moral.—lt Is better to make up than to continue differences.—New York Herald. 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. , Beef, pork, veal, sausages and in fact everything in the market line can always be found at R.

HUNDREDS KILLED EASTERN TURPESTAN IS DEVAS ‘ TATED BY SEISMIC SHOCKS. Simla, India, Sept. 27.—Further j ports received here regarding the | earthquake in eastern Turkestan, i which lasted from Aug. 22 to Sep.. ... show that in addition lo causing other damage, the town of A; tush was re duced to ruins, and that 606 persons were killed and many others injured. One hundred persons were killed at Kashgar. 400 in the village of As tyn. 20 at Jangi, while the town of Aksullsitehe was completely destroy ed. There were no premonitory signs, says (he dispatch, but a pronounced Use in temperature followed tile eipal shock. The temperature tinned to rise during the subsequent days, which were attended by a rep etition of slight quakes. The dis patch says no Europeans lost their lives. •Kashgar, capital of the province cf Sinkiang, is situated at the confluence of roads leading to Pekin, India and tlie IWssian empire, and is of consid erable importance, having a popula tion of about 50,000.

SEPTEMBER 2*. ’ 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. Tit For Tni.
