THE G. A. K. PARADE. Some Features of It Already Considered by Chairman Edson. At the next meoting of the executive com- mittee in charge of the arrangements for the G. A. R. encampment it is probable that the chairmen of several committees will be ap- pointed in addition to the list already aw nounced. The chairmen of the committce on excursions, the committee on information, on | badges. on printing and on the Woman's Re- lief Corps will probably then be named. Some of these committees will have considerable work to do. Many of the general features of the entertainment of the Grand Army have already been considered by Chairman Edson and his associates. Mr. Edson has suggested a number of ideas, which will probably be carried out," and has __ received anumber from different sources which meet his approval. He looks forward to an encamp- ment which will be memorable as well on xc- count of the splendid entertainment provided, as on account of the myriads of veterans who will take part. One thing he is bound to have roved, and that is that the utterances made in the encampment at Detroit by the advocates of Lincoln, Neb., to the effect that the Union veterans would have a cold welcome in Wash- ington, was a gross libel on the capital city. ‘THE ILLUMINATION. Chairman Thomas of the committee on iliu- mination said today that Washington would be illuminated as no city was ever illuminated be- fore. He feels confident of making a brilliant aud memorable display, the only limit to its magniticence being the amount of mouey avail- able for this use. Pennsylvania avenue and the Capitol will glow with light, and the Wash- ington monument will be brought out against the background of the night in lines of fire. THE PARADE. Chairman Edson bas given much thought to the parade. It is his idea that it should be short and that there should be enthusiasm all along the line. Instead of five hourg he thinks it should be over in two hours, so that neither the veterans in line nor the spectators in the street need be wearied. To accompiish this he thinks the different divisions of the parade should be formed on the streets entering Penn- sylvania avenue immediately west of the Capi- tol—lst, 2d, $d and 435 strects—the line of march beginning at 4%; street and ending at 17th or 18th street. Then he thinks the Grand Army men could be formed in close ordex, with tanks extending clear across the avenue, or in double columns, one on each side of the ave- Bue. SCHOOL CHILDREN TO sIxa. On each of the stands to be erected along the line he thinks they could seat 2,000 or more school children, all provided with flags, who, under the direction of competent leaders, would sing war songs and patriotic airs as the parade There could be displayed, too, at some points, objects of patriotic interest or of special interest to the veterans, all of which would tend to increase the enthusiasm both of the marching men and of the spectators. It has been suggested also to invite distin guished Union general snow living to occupy positions on the stand so that they can review the parade and at the same time be seen by the men in line. If there are generais enough each stand could have its general, and #0 each stand would be a point of interest to the marching men as well asthe grand reviewing stand,where the President would review the parade, in front of the White House. passat ak GEPRGETOWN.

NOT $0 BAD AS SHE FEARED. Yesterday an old Irish lady entered the office of @ prominent lawyer here, and, bursting into | tears, told him the savings of a lifetime had all been lost in an instant through her husband's love for liquor. It appeared that while in an intoxicated condition ber “old man” had lost the deed to their home. This whe believed was an irreparable loss and that the finder was en- titled to oust her and take full and lawful pos- session of the property. Wheu she was told that a new deed could be copied from the rec- ords and the finder of the old one would be nothing in, she blessed the lawyer and said sue didn't think now that lawyers were as black as they were painted. + AS UNREFORMED PARROT. A well-known pillar of « certain church here has just returned from the mountains, where he has been summering, and among the things brought back besides his regular luggage was 9 very intelligent but very profane parrot. The first thing the pillar did in connection with the reformation of his adopted child was to sting him severely with a rubber band every time he uttered an unpleasant expression, and when this punishment had been inflicted several times the parrot, to all outward appearances, was as stately, us dignified and as particular in his specch as ‘a Quaker. Yesterday the minis ter of the church, while making his usual calls, dropped in on the pillar, and the first thing he said was: “I hear you have a very profane par- rot.” “Ibada profane one,” the parishioner answered, “but through proper discipline I have weaned him of his bad tricksand he never now uses an improper word.” As the parrot’s owner said these words he glanced up at the reen bird with the hope that by some remark Ei Words might be proved, but to his great mortification the deceitful thing poked his head out sidewase from the cage and said, in sepul- ebral tones: “It's a d——d lie.” This is a true story and the pillar tells it on himself. ‘THE LITMUS cIKcLE. Last evening the first entertainment of the Litmus Circle was given at Linthicum Institute Hali and a large and appreciative audience en- joyed the program. There were choruses by the circle under the directorship of Mr. F. W. Bird of the Franz Abt Club, vocai solos by B. F. Taylor, James E. Taylor, Charles F.

Already the horses have commenced to arrive, and by the time the horses go to the post in the first race there promises to be as tine a collection of horses on band to take part as Washington has witnessed in many years. All of the old horse- men predict that the fall meeting will eclipse anything seen here. The track isin the very best of condition, and workmen are kept busy every day keeping it up to the highest state of perfection. All of the jumps have been overhauled and trimmed afresh with evergreen, and the grand stand has been improved to the end of securing comfort and ease. The betting ting has also been improved, and from all ac- counts the “bookies” will be on hand in f Altogether the track isin better condition than ever before, and with its beautifal back- ground of trees already kissed by the aytumnal breezes until their leaves are blushing, it mukes a picture worth reproducing.

It isunderstood that the mar- ringe will take place very shortly, and that Col. Vivian is now on his way here from England. Mra. Marshall O. Roberts, who was the third wife of the late millionaire, was formerly Miss Sarah Endicott. She was married to Mr. Rob- erts only about three years before his death, which occurred about eight years ago. Her family wasa Massachusetts one, and she is a {Connection of the Endicott family which gave the Secretary of War to ex-President Cleve- Jand’s cabinet. Mrs. Roberts met her husband on shipboard on a voyage from Liverpool to New York. He had been a widower then fora year or more, and the old man was attracted by the sweet face and charming manners of his fellow passenger. He became acquainted with her and soon Jearned her history. He discovered that she was poor and to some extent dependent upon her own resources, and before the voyage was over he proposed to her. Miss Endicott did not at first accept, but after some wooing consented to become Mrs. Roberta. After Mr. Roberts’ death Mrs. Roberts began to entertain, and in the winter of 1894-5 gave the first of severalannual balls, which attracteqmuch attention from their lavishnews of appointment and expenditure. At these entertainments the immense picture galleries, which in the earlier days of art culture in America were widely celebrated were thrown open, and the guests Wandered through the spacious rooms and hall- ‘Ways with banks of flowers on either side.

Sleeplessness is 0 rapid road to the insane asylum. Men allow care, anxiety or business troubles to drive sleep from their eyelids, whiie women with un- strcng nerves and excitable tempera- ments pass hours upon hours each night in sleep- Jes, restless misery. What wonder that there are so many shattered nerves, tired brains and debilitated bodies, when we consider the thousands who pass sleepless or disturbed nights, and rise mornings Jeeling in- describably miserable, dragged out, with tired limbs, exhausted energies, nerveless and ambi- tionless, Itis maddest folly to use opium, morphine or chloral.
