After it was over the girl, car

Tillinghast's saloon, where she
ordered ice cream and two chick

suade the child that one chicken
was sufficient, but she was firm
in demanding two, saying: "We
want enough to eat" A chicken

The Uses ofa Summer Girl.
irrenton rimes.l

tlrenton Tlme5J
The summer girl is 4 peculiarly
| American product No other
soil. az far as known, has ever
produced her. She seems to have
been discovered several years ago
by some college students, and has
since been cultivated to q large
extent all over the country. She
is very popular creature in GER
tain quarters and possesses un-
doubted charms and has her
advantages. It might not be amiss
just now to enumerate q few Of
her uses.
The summer girl is great
convenience. She does not ex-
pect TO be fondled and fed on
danties during the winter The
young man who cultivates her
acquaintance knows just when
and whs to find her. He is not
expected to become acquainted
with her before strawberry time,
She does not display her airy
fairyness. so to speak, until the
ice cream season is thoroughly
ripe. The hammock in which
she swings and the perforated
sleeves that she wears do not APP
near before June.
The summer girls sentimental.
Having an actual existance only
during the warm months. it be-
comes necessary for her to lay in
stock Of sentiment during three
months that will last throughout
the year. Therefore, she is very
sweet, very tender, very caressa-
Bile The young man who claims
her for his own from June to
September is believed to have q
very "soft" time of it. He is
supposed, in sentimental slang,
to have ali the hugeing and kiss
ing that he wants. The summer
girl always has 4 supply Of kisses
On hand. II is true some of the
kisses are rather stale, having
been kept all winter. but when
they are warmed up they pass
very readily for fresh ones. The
young man that cultivates summer
girls is not very particular what
kind Of kisses be gets so long as
they are the clingipg kind.
The summer glrl is pretty. IF
she wasn't pretty she wouldn't be
a summer girl. She wears o
pretty girls dresses. has a pretty
girls teeth and puts on q pretty
girls smile. She also has
dimple or two to add to the pic
ture. She is usually plump, but
not stout; we'll formed but not
rotund The young man who
pays for her Strawberries and
cream. and takes her to the pic
mics. where they play Copenha zen,
is always proud of her. The
summer girl never gets soiled or
looks dirty. She even manages
TO keep her back hair in shape
after hugging match
The summer girl is not very
expensive. Her wishes are few
and cheap. A row on the river
now and then. an occasional
buggy ride, plate Of ice cream
of a warm evening, aud an escort |
to a picnic about once in two
weeks. nearly sums up her wants.
Being only a summer girl, she
does not expect those presents, |
and that devotion that belongs
TO the regular everyday in the
week and twice Sunday all
the. year-round gil The summer
girl is more like some luscious
frnit that comes only for time
and then is gone for the year,
but il peculiarly sweet whilo i,
lasts.

The Marrland Election.

Just as the Democratic party Of Mary
land eradicated the main source Of the
trouble that bid fair to rend its ranks
asunder and cause division that would
seriously endanger the prospects Of success
at next falls State election, the Republicans
resume the quarrel they had temporarily
suspended, and are now fighting as vigor-
ously as though they had possession of the
State by majority large enough to permit
of an almost equal division of their vote
and still leave good chance for victory.
1t cannot be denied that for awhile the
political situation in Maryland looked very
gloomy for the Democratic party, but the
action OF the Baltimore Democracy in rele
eating to the people the right to rule at the
primaries without the unwholesome inter
ference OF factional leaders, has restored a
complete harmony, and forced the politi-
clans who hoped to succeed through fraud
and violence to lay their respective
claims before the sovereign voters
of the party, for their acceptance or rejec-
ton. Fair and honestly conducted primar-
les are all that the great body of Demo
cratic voters ask for, and whether they re-
suit in a victory for German, Whyte, Ham
ilton or some new and untried leader, the re-
suit will be cordially acquieseed in and the
voice of the majority accepted without
question as the party will. Under
these circumstances the party will present
an united front at the November election,
and this means victory by from twelve to
fifteen thousand majority in the State, even
should The Republicans close theirranks and
make stubborn fight for success.
The latter contingency, however, is now
more remote than ever. The removal
of Collector Ditty, the friend OF
Cresswell and the representative of
of the Stalwart wing of the party, has
kindled anew the iactional fires and precip-
itated fight that will be none the less bit
ter because the Stalwarts, in this instance,
have apparently lost the firm administration
support that has heretofore been given them
The colored voters were the staunch ad-
herents of the outed Collector, and
his removal viii doubtless cause
\ serious detection in the ranks of a
class of voters who compose almost half of
the Republican party of the S ate.
Unless new complications arise, the com
ing campaign in Maryland will be conducted
under the above conditions, in which event
the result will be foregone conclusion.

tNew York SUM-
Many visitors daily crosa the bridge. 1t
is nearly ready for travel, and it might be
opened several days before the time now
fixed; but it is not thought desirable to ad-
NIT passengers while there s danger of acci-
dent from pieces of iron or wood falling
from the station buildings. There have al
ready been several narrow escapes from in
iuries from this cause. A LAY or two ago
piece of plank fell Immediately in front of
ole Of the assistant engineers, and he was
within two rect of receiving a serious blow.
Several cranks linger about the bridge en-
trance trying to dodge across, but so far
they have not succeeded The finishing
touches attract many idlers, who hang
about all day long watching the progress OF
the work.
1t is already evident that the promenade
will be popular with the persons who sun
them selves on the park benches, and it is
thought oy the engineers tp be a good thing
that some toll is to be fixed for foot passen-
gers, as a slight charge will keep the prome-
made at the start, when 1t is likely to be
most used, free from an Objectionable lot
OF tramps. II will require stringent police
orders, it is thought, to keep the promenade
from being q resort for such persons as can

There does not now seem to the committee
to be any feasible plan for selling commuta-
ton tickets that will comply with the law
requiring the trustees to exact tolls and at
the same time to receive money from tran
sient passengers, as plan 10 sell 25 tickets
for 10 cents would not accommodate tran
sient passengers who may desire to walk
over for pleasure, and may have no need Of
more than two tickets. Ii 8 cent is made
the toll for a single trip, to be paid ior
In cash, it is believed that the gamins will
go into the ticket brokerage business, as was
formerly the case at Fulton Ferry, and sell
two tickets for a cent. AT present it is he
lieved that one cent will have to be charged
TO all without Communication. The trustees
will decide this at the NEXT meeting.
The Aldermanic committee appointed to
arrange for civic celebration of the open
ing of the bridge favor street parade, and
they request such organizations as will join
in procession to inform them by Monday

Willingness to turn him over to the Della

General Gray is reported as being disin

the apparent imposslbility ofsecuring CON
viction,a he cannot now compel the attend

punishment ought to be administered to the

IaFofapiy known about town, on retiring for
the night, feeling unwell and nervous was
very restless IN his sleep, but seemed to
hlinsell TO be wide awake and in full CON
troll OF his senses. A vision appeared in bis
hfeam showing him large flaming number
commanding him to obtain it from the lot
tefy ahu Then vanished The dream was SO
startling as to fully awaken him. and al
though one who never believed in lotteries
or upheld them, yet try as he would he could
MOI shake on the vision or forget the num-
oers winch seemed to be burned in his brain.
Finally he called at the office of the Com.
monwealth Distrsbu ion Co., and having Al
asked for ticket with the numbers of his
dreaLl on IT, fortunately the number was
unsold and his ticket given him. The draw
ing was soon TO come OH and so nervous and
excited had he became that, although
against his principles, ne determined to wit
ness It, and strangely enough. he saw his
number drawn from the wheel and the
handsome prize OF $1,000 was his, Was

The Boos family had quiet time of 1t yes
terday in their home at the corner of Rich.
mond and Ross streets. The goblin or
ghost or fend which had been amusing itself
by smashing the glass window paues had not
put in an appearance, the grocery
shop was tightly closed, and the
notoriety given to the dwellings was not at
all appreciated by the family. Early in the
morning couple of ldng-haired men, who
said they were spiritual mediums, rang the
door-bell, and declared that If the
opportunity and Sl0 were given
them they could fathom the Sc
cret. Mr.. Boos scratched his head
and recovered enough of his voice to tell
the men that their services were not needed.
Last night an immense crowd gathered in
front of the house, but the ghost
refused to put in ali appearance The
neighbors declare that the work of
demolition has been carried by the spirit
OF Charlie Ross. The reasons for this
are that the long lost boy was last seen
at Palmer and Richmond streets, which is
about % feet from Mr.. BOos' house. His
residence is at the corner of Ross street, and
the superstitious folks put these facts to-
gether together to show that their theory is
correct. No clew has vet been obtained to
