THE COMMERCIAL TRAVELER, Eiaborate Preparations For the Great Drummers’ Parade. TME DEATH OF THOMAS F. ALLEN, Gohn DeWitt Drops Into Poetry —Some Interesting Statistios— Gathering of the Olans — Oaught In Hotel Corridors. “CALL US DRUMMERS." John DeWltt in American Commercial Traveler, [A traveling men's paper took exceptions to the term “‘drummer,” used by Mr. DeWity in “A Drammer’s Constancy,” published in the Travoler some time ago. In reply thereto, Mr, DeWitt. sends us the following: There are some men quite ashamed Justbecuuso they've been named “Drummers.” - Better throw down vour load And get off the road, “Bummers,” Why, wo “Knights of the Grip' Are well dubbed every trip, “Hummers," And we're nover ashamed, But we're proud when we're named “Drummers.” Perhaps *Tourists" will do, Or plain’ “Pilgrims,” for you “Bummers." But eall us who are plain By that simple old name, “Drummers.” 1t takes brains now to sell; By hard work you can tell “Drummers.” You can tell by their woe, And the things they don’t kuow, “Bummers,” We aro now very strong, Quarter million, ere loug, “Drummers.” But I'm glad wo find fow Of such kickers as you “Bummers."” You write homo as of yoro Ten have gone just beforo “Drummers;” That's the reason you fail And you can’t make o sale, “Bummers." If you'll change uil your wuy Doing hard work that pay “Bummers." We'll forgive all the past, And witl call you at last, “Drummers.” Or. Another Route. The following letter, aated Grand Isiand, August 27, has boen received : I herewith hand you a copy of resolutions adopted at Grand Island, August 25, 1559, by the commercial travele which we would be pleased to have abpear in. Tue Bee. On Monday morning, September 2, 1880, without, a moment's warning, we swung around among the boys at the Palmer house and Pa- cific hotel and on the street, and in short or- der picked up a sufficient amount of money to defray about all the funcral expenses of our deceascd brother. What a noble class of men are these commercial travelers! Quite a number attended the funtral in a body. The family of our deceased comrade fully appreciate this act of kinduess on the part of the boys. There is a furvher favor to be asked of the boys in behaif of the family of our deceased brother, which will be made known in due time, and we have no doubt it will be cheerfully granted. The boys have made a multitude of fricuds by this one little t of kindness. Craro. Accompanying wus the report of the meet- an and the resolutions adopted as follows: t a meeting of commercial travelers held at the Palmer House, Grand Island, Neb. August 25, 1880, to take action concerning the death of Thomas F. Allen, the following resolutions were adopted ‘Whereas, our co-worker, Thomas F. Allen, has been taken away by the omuisient father of all men and placed beyond the further knowledge of bumane task and humane trials. Resolved, That in his death the community loses an upright citizen: the commercial ‘world & worker of irreproachable character;; the church a brother who never tired of well doing; his family a devoted husband and a tender and loving father. Resolved further, That we hereby extend our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved fanuily in this their sad hour of sorrow and deep affliction. Resolved further, That a copy of these resalutions be sent to the city papers, THE OwmanA Beg, and the family of our deceased brother. “‘When the hammer of relentless pain ¥ Doth break the rivets of thefleshly chain ‘Whieh bind the spirit, ‘Then she spreads her wings.

A Terrible Yield. Tue Bee reporter who fell heir to 75 cents yesterday, and blew it aguinsta fresh lob- ster lunch at one of Omaha's leading hotels, overheard two drummers talking. Oune said to the other: “I tell you, they have bigger crops in the northwest than were ever raised before, and times are bound to be good in that part of the country. Just think of 230 bushels of wheat &t 90 cents a bushel. Oh, I toll you the northwest is the place to sell ‘ou don’t mean 280 bushels to the acre” said the other, apparently ustonished at the wesertion, “Well, you heard me.” “Yes, 1 heard you, but don't believe it There never was 250 bushels of wheat raised ob oue acre of ground in the world.” “Well, call me @ liar 1f vou want to, but I uet came from the northwest and kuow my usiness.” Obumps. “Itis a perpetual wonder to me what chumps some men oan make of themselves,’, said Charlle Graves, a Chicago waveliog man, last week, ‘“For nstance, about five minutes ago I stood bere in front of the Pax- tou and watched a St. Louis banker trying 10 flnd out from oue of the hackmen what car 0 take to reach Sixteenth street and ‘Webster. Of course the hackman informed him that Sixteenth streot and Webster was two milos beyond the terminus of all the car and consequently Mr. Hauker was led to hire a hack and ride to his destination. There are three car lines from the Paxton that go Oul very near Sixteenth and Webstok, and any ordinary pedestrian could have so informed bim. but I suppose that is St. Louis acuteness. The Great Parade. There is going to be an immense throng of the tourists in the city this week. Already all the hotels are flling up and a parade larger and more imposing than ever before. The following report of a drammers’ moet- ing in the Sunday edition, will give all neo~ essary information : The traveling men held an adjourned meet- ing Inst night at the Arcade and perfected as far as fossible the preliminary arrangemonts for their grand parade on Drummers’ day. Nearly one hundred koights of the grip were present, among them men who have been on the road many years, and they all manifestad great enthusiasm and expressed determination to make the event Wednesday next one that will atteact the attention it de- sorves. President G. O. Lobeck on calling the meeting W order stated thav Messrs, Stout, Brown and other members of the exveutive committee had been very active and orted good results. They found the collection of money rather slow, but the parade and fair grounds visit will be botter tuis year than last. “Areangoments,’ continued Mr. Lobeck, “have been made for every traveling man to be furnished with a tickei of admission for himself and lagy to the fair zrounds, at hoard of tr@ae hall, Wednesday moening.” Hoin- sisted that every man who expects 10 take part in the parade shall be on hand at 9 o'clock. Troasurer M. W. Rierson read a report showing that the committee has enrolled names and collected $3%6, Out of the ber subscribing, 256 have paid. The president declared that it would be. impossible to got through with less than 2500, At the sugeestion of Mr, Hall every onn Wwho 80 desired was authorized 10 invite any friend or acquaintanca to join the procession, and the Omuha drammers are to bear all the exponsos, 1t wus announced that Beatrico will send up a fon of eighty, accom- panied by o and child n that town. These boys, how sent word that they could nov adopt silk hats. but that makes no differonce; the Omsha and Council ~ Biuffs ~ men waived this point and wired them to come without silk hats. A committee of twenty will meet them &t the denot and escort them to headquarters, Messrs. Myers wad Har- vey were appointed to take the matter in charge and select their escort, Mr. Baily submitted u good report from Lincoln, The committes also look for a guod attendance from Norfolk, Arrangements have been made for a spe- cial train to the fair giounds, which will leuve the Webster stroot depot at 1 o'clock on Inesday. T ommittee on huts, badges and streamers reported progress, and wiil have their part of the busmess well at- tended to. The Japanese parasols and fans will be here Monday aud ready for distribution Wednesday morning. Joe Garucau has promised two band S. Helphry, the committee on fair ground refreshments, writes from David City that he will be here to attend to his part of tho business. Dur- ing the session, Marshal Clarkson and somo of his aides appearad on the scene and cre- ated quite a stiv_by announcing that in the order of parade they would, unless the trav- eling men objected, put them at the head of the trades display in the second dwision. ‘The traveling men did object, whereupon it was decided that they should be in the first division and next to the mlitary, which will have the right ot the procession. After apnouncing that all drummers, whether visiting or otherwise, are invited to join in tho parade, the wmeeting adjourned, Messrs. Meyers and Harvey then announced as their delegation to meet the Beatric train, the foilowing gentlemen: W. F. Bodley, C. 5. Maley, L. L. Rappell, John Maloney, T. B. Coe, C. P. Rogan, H. A. Dyke, George Breck, 'F. H. Daniels, D, P. Marsh, Sam Couch, W. H. Roth, J. B. Erion,V Helphrey, E. A, W. Snell, H. P, Thompson, T. P. Fenney, R. H. Kaister, G. H. Savage, J. B. McCarkin, J. B. Beal. Will Be to the KFront. The very thought of putting several other organizations ahesd of the traveling men on “Drummers’ day,” as suggested by Chief Marshal Clarkson, at their meeting Satur- day night, very much disgusted some of the boys. They discussed it yesterday, but he yiclded so gracefully to their wishes that the matter will have no contrary effects upon the occasion. However, all who expressed themselves seemed to think it very poor taste for tho inarshal to undertake the formia- tion of a procession on *Drummers’ day’ by putting them in_any other than the ve front position. “Why, we are the attra tion,” said one, whi inspired another to declare that “Only for the traveling men it would be an inferior affair.” “I'nat's a fuct,” chimed in the third, and it hus been advertised everywhere as “Drummers’ day President Loveck then chimed in with : “QOur banner is inscribed ‘Always to the frount;’ therefore it would not do for us to be made tail-enders. For my part, we will march next to the military or nov march atall.” “Why, certawnly,” exclaimed Marshal Clarkson. “We want to accommoduaie the traveling man, They can have anything they ask for. 1Isimply felt that as they and the trades display are so closely allied in interest, it would be merely a matter of good tuste as well as style to bave them at the head of the feature, but they wunt to be next to the Omaha Guards, and there is the place T will put them.” “raken in.

It wason my first visit to a town in eastern Tllinois. I hud made & loag run over the Ilinois Central from Chicago, and arrived at my destination late 1n the evening, The train was late, and not & porter or hotel runner was to be seen or heard, One solitary cab stood guard over all. I carried a grip and heavy sumple case. Approaching cubby I asked: *‘How far is it to the Grand Mogul Hotel!” ‘‘About fifteen minutes' ride, s Take you up with your luggage for half a dollar,” There seemed no alterna- tive, and, of course, I accepted. Away we went, up grado and down grade, aronnd corners to tha left and corners to the right, and in due time 1 was landed at the Grand Mogul. The uext morning 1 stood at the window of the hotel watching a train pulling out of & depot directly across the stroet. ‘Ihe name on the cars uroused my suspicions. *‘What depot is that!" 1 as! the clerl The 1lli- vois Central, sir,” he replied; “that is the teain from Obicago.”” Then I knew that I had paid cabby 50 conts for taking me from that depot, ono hundred feot away, to the hotel. ‘fo'be sure, it took him fifteen min- utes to do it, and we were goiug ata brisk pace all the ' time. Over what ground we went Ido not know—and 1 shall never in- quire, d they took Makes & Change. F. C.

The canned preserves mariet is dull. Av least that is what C. 8. Rempert, who rep- resents the P. J. Rilter Couserve company, of Philadelphia, says about it. Mr. Rem- pert returned last week from a trip to Cali- fornia, and when seen at the Millard notel yesterday was lumenting the extreme slow- ness of busin in his line. *‘What is the cause of itf Well, I'll tell you.

New York World: Here is an inter- esting and suggestive caleulation with respect to the World’s fair guarantee fund: Tet twent of our richest men give $100,000 ¢ let fifty very rich men giy total 00,000 each; let 100 v give $25,000 each-—total, 250 men who cun afford each—-total, $10.000,000. The people will pay the rest in eutrance fees. And the men amply able to do"this, if they are alive to the welfare of New York and the country.

Northern people have always had a good mauy queer notions about their cousins down this way, und the queerest of all is the notion that the southern women are not practical, says the Sunny South. On the contrary, the women of the south take to business as na urally as a duck does to water. They have not the tendency to isms that the fairnorth- erners boast of, thank the Lord. Their way is 1o take things as they find them, and make the besy of the situation. Without the least appearauce of effort or sounding of tom-toms, they go quictly about paying their way, and their fail- ures are too few to talk about. It was nothing uncommoy in old times to see a woman riding about in the fields bossing the negroes and the overseer. She usu- ally supplemented this care on her own account with a general supervision of the country side, and her masculine neighbors were only too glad to consult her on matters of common interest. Many a debt-burdened estate has been freed by the feminine turn for detail, a faculty that too many planters lacked before and since the war. S e Something to lkemember.
