HERE AND THERE.

The Putnam Phalanx voted last even. ing not to turn out on the 18th, because of the large number of veterans in the command who want to parade that day with their old regiments. It was voted to have an excursion and clam-bake on the Fourth of July, and a committee was raised to choose the place and make arrangements. --HmBord COmant, June 5.

Exquisite Bone Carving,


 MT John Rodemeyer, the Railroad street boot maker, has of late employed his leisure time carving ornaments from bone, and has varied and interesting ng collection of familiar articles in minia- tare, wrought with remarkable skill and fidelity.
 The animal kingdom is represented by species amphibious, carnivorous and humanicus, from the festive alligator and the savage chipmunk and the hard-shell bap-turtle up to gigantic Jumbo and the mythical man in the moon.
 Among the instruments of torture in MT Rodemeyer's collection are the dead ly kicking musket, the Indian arrow, the broad sword, the shoe hammer, the violin, and that terror to hen-pecked husbands, the fat-iron; sources of mu- sic from the mellow guitar to the seduc- tive wine glass; besides the entire series of army corps badges, and large dis play of various other objects which are tastefully arranged in frames, on back ground of black velvet.
 This collection of handiwork reflects credit upon MT R. s patience and skill, and his generosity in giving specimens to his neighbors shows that his motto is |" Pro bone publico. D
 It is nearly as pleasant to look upon as the product of the biblical bone ex- pertinent that cured Adams lonesome Onsc

Only Sixty Hours Now from Baltimore
TO the Bermudas, the Queen Resort OF
Southern Seas.
The Bermudas have long held enduring
place in the affections Of winter tourists, and
deserv ingly so, for throughout the southern
seas there are no islands to compare with
the attractions which, in their glorious
perfection, constitute the Bermudas the no
plus ultra of winter resorts. From March to
May the season is at its highest and the
loneliness of the surroundings, together with
tho most comfortable accommodations and
cosmopolitan society, makes the bright DAYS
pass as if upon silver wings. The islands are
replete with quaint fancies of old time
builders, and the luxuriance of the tropical
vegetation so largely participates In every
vista that one could almost imagine himself
in fairyland, with magic wand 30 wildly
