THE SOLDIER BOYs OUT. ‘The Whete Brigade of the District Militia eut on Parade. ‘The miserable character of the weather did not dampen the ardor of the bistrict militia yesterday. For the first time stnce the re-organization of the Zational Guard the full brigade was ordered out Jor drill. Barty in the morning, and before many people had awakened toa Knowledge that Thanks giving day had arrived, some members of the militia wefe already at their armories, Drashing thetr uniforms, polishing the gun metal and the brass clasps on their belts, every little ‘while casting an antions ¢ye to the overcast sky and the damp, wet earth. But there was no change in the appearance of either when the men ‘Were all dressed, equipped, and ready at the word of command to set out for the Washington Bar- racks, where it was the intention of Gen. Ordway, commander of rict militia, that they Should’ be exetched in nusiber of Meld move. Ments, About 10 o'clock the crowd of small boys and around the door of each armory was hastily back frou the entrances from which the bine-coated, capped, trousered, and legginged men marched in ranks of four into the street, ‘whence they strode with measured step to the ‘southern part of the city. ‘ON THR PARADE GROUND. ‘The imperatite order that the different com- mands should assemble at the barracks at 10:30 & m, was obefed in every instance, and at that hour he long stretch of Meld bordering the east bank of ‘he muddy Potomac was alive with companies of Solsters marching up and down, getting into te itions that had Leen asst ‘Tne atmosphere was fliled with a sort of light fog through Which the tain dribbied In an_ uncom fortable fasiifon. By the time Gen. Ordway and Adjutant Gen. Bigelow, accompanied by the aides- @e-camp, Capts. Clay ahd Gales, arrived there were a large number of spectators of the ground. At first sight the observer saw nothing peculiar in ‘the outfit of the different commands, but a closer Obeervation often Jed toa smile and a laugh. Many of the soldiers were clad half in uniform and half in cividan’s dress, while others were arrayed in a motley of different colored uniforms. This was owing to the failure of the appropriation to uniforms for everybody. It 19 likely that ‘until Congress meets the soldier boys will ether have to swallow their pride or else purchase the uniforms with their own purses. AD lation for the deficiency will be asked of Congress this year. Considerable time was mt in arranging the companies in battalions and the battalions in po- sitions according to their numbers, but when this ‘was accomplished, after an hour or more of patient ‘Work on the part of the officers, Gen. Ordway had abandoned all hope of having a irili and the order ‘was given to march back to their armories. Many Of the more enthustastic hailed this order with dis gust, but the older and wiser men cheerfully ac- . MARCHING HOME AGAIN. So, up 434 street they matched gaily along, with ‘the Union Veteran Drum Corps heading the col- wma, the Sfes blowing sbrilly and drums rattling and creshing. Back of the drum corps came the Soldiery-looking ‘ehiet of police, Col. Moore, leading the Washington Light lantry. All four com- panies were there and in the new uniforms pre- ‘sented a baadsome and soldierly apy ance, Next came the veterans of the Union Veteran Cory commanded by Capt. M.

A Grand Rapids, Mich., special to the New York World telis the following: ‘The appointment of Don M. Dickinson to a post- tion in Mr. Cleveland's cabinet has revived recol- lections of a scene during which was demonstrated courage and a devotion such asis seidom wit- essed in @ politician. It was at a convention held here in August, i896. ‘The Rev. Mr. Tilden opened the lings with a prayer in which he invoked Diessings on Jefferson, 8. J. Tilden and others, but falled to mention President Cleveland. Mr. Dick- inson then arose to address the convention. A hush fell on the great gathering, as with lead erect and flashing eyes, he said: “Mr. Chairman and gentlemen of theconvention, I listened with bowed nead and reverent heart té the eloquent invocation of the reverend gentleman with the sacred name. His office here was to voice the prayer in the nearts of the members of the con- Yention, but I inissed in his utterances that sent- ment which I believe to be uppermost in every Dreaat in this body. and with the utmost rever- ence ” oR a a added: “God bless and save and keep that deino- erat of democrats, the noblest of them all, Grover Cleveland, President of the United States.” One could have heard a pin drop for an instant, and then the crowd rose as one man. Hate, handker- chiefs, and hands were thrown up, and such a roar ‘of human voices rose in wild cheering that speech and business were suspended for ten minutes, From that time Dickinson, figuratively, was car- ried in the arms of the convention. Not a whisper of criticism Was uttered against the Administra- tion, and a strong indorsement of Cleveland went through Without a dissenting voice. The Georgian Temperance Campaign. ATLANTA EDITORS IN THE COXTRST WITHOUT OOM- MITTING THEIR PAPER. ‘The unique attitude of the Atlanta Constitution on the question of probibition, says a New York Tribune special, adds a comic element to the cam- paign in Georgia, which everybody 1s enjoying hugely. Editorialiy tt says nothing, but its news columns are Uberally sprinkled with frantic ap- peals for and against prohibition, each of which 1s “communicated.” That of itself would be funny enough. But two of the editors and proprietors of the paper, Messrs. Grady and Howell, have entered the fight, Mr. Grady coming out for prohibition and Mr. Howell against prohibition. Thelr articles have appeared in the Constitution marked “com- municated,” and are strong presentations of their Feapective ‘sides of the question. Since these ar. ticles have appeared, paragraphs commendl them, evidently editorial, but’ marked “communi cated,” appear daily ih the Constitution. On one page, for instance, thereader is Informed that the | prouibitionists are squirming over Capt. Howell's able exposure of their hypocrisy,” and on another the very same paper he is told that “the antis are wriggling under the bril- Mant invective of Col. Grady.” Ih the meanwhile Col. Hemphill, the principal owner of the paper, Keeps quiet. But this state of affairs cannot last long, and doubtless after the election on Saturday he Comat fution will mark out for feeit & deflite policy on yperance question, her this ‘Will result in the retirement of Col. Grady or Capt. Howell remains to be seen, ‘The same may be said of the result of the elec. tion. At present itts impogsible to say how tt Will go) but che surface indications point to a victory the anti-prohibitionists, But even if the pro- hibitiontsts should be defeated they will not be cast down. They declare that in some ‘the would bea ow temporary triumph of their enemies gain to them. For it would show the much more prosperous AUanta Is under prohibi- Uon than it would be under the “rule of rum,” as they put it. It is only fair to acd that good men are divided on the question, and the prohibitions ists have not succeeded in ‘gaining the adherence of many citizens who are strong believers in tem- perance. a eae, A Silent Household, MYERS MAD NOT SPOKEN TO HIS WIFE FOR TWO YRANS BEFORE HE SHOT HER. A Chicago dispatch says: Wm. Myers, the South: Chicago man who shot his wife and’ child, ran away, and afterward gave himself up to the police, has made a statement of the causes leading to his terrible crime. “The trouble had been ‘brewing for two years,” he said, “I have been married about twenty-four | rears, but for the past two years I had not, up to ‘Sunday last, spoken a word ‘to my wife; had not even seen her more than three or four mes. We lived in the same house, but whenever ‘she would hear me enter she wouid shut herself in ‘her room and remain there until I left.

People got to wondering who it was that executed the, Pensloner's amdavit, when the other justioe said that it was not he ahd there was noboby else there to do it. When the Pension Department heard of it they investigated the matter and asked the pensioner why he did 90, as he was lable to imprisonment. ‘The taan replied that he did it to save the expense of the usual fee allowed in such cases, which is 25 cents. ie was asked Why he imitated the other's signature instead of writ. ing the name in his own style of handwriting, and said the Pension Office had his signature on file, and if he did the latter they would not pay the Pension.

Dorsey 1s what is known as a | “second-story thief,” that 1s, one who always | makes his advent into house by way of the win- | dows on the second floor, and that is how he got | into the Morzan House, at between 6 and 7 o'el on Saturday. while the’ family were downstairs at dinner.
