LADIES AS VOTERS.
They We're Foremost at the EXpoSi-
tion Balloting Yesterday
FOR CHOICE OF NATIONAL FLOWER.
This is the Day of German Music at the
Big Show.
BRIEF DESCRIPTIONS OF THE EXHIBITS

That there is everything that is senti-
mental and womanly even in the bare men,
tion of flowers, was shown at the Exposition
yesterday, where all day and evening that
charming creature marched deliberately up
to the ballot Loxes, exercised her franchise
for the first time, and voted for-noWers'
Selecting a national flower was the issue.
The total vote will not be known until to-
day, but ten minute survey of the crowd
around the polling place showed that ten
women voted to where one man deposited
his ballot, so the result, in all probability,
will show a grand total in favor of "Sweet
William" or Bachelors Button" instead
of a solid male vote for "Lady's Finger"
Yet if there is one thing more in demand at
the Exposition than popcorn, it's more pop
corn.
In a short talk with Captain Batchelor
yesterday, that gentleman, after a careful
estimate of the splendid crowd in attend
ance said: There is no longer any doubt
as to the great future of our Exposition.
Critics have been Silenced, and become our
supporters instead. Our merchants daily
tell me how greatly their business has been
benefited, while our exhibitors, and most
of all, the city and country people are
simply delighted There has not been a
day lately, during which we have not run
far above expenses, sometimes making
three or four times as much. OF course 1t
is too soon to become very explicit in re-
gard to finances, but the grand total will
be eminently pleasing to the public spirited
and enterprising people who aided in this
great undertaking"
To-day promises to be one of the greatest
of the season in a musical way, as the fame
of the Robert Blum and Cecilia Mannerchor Is
more than local. Excursions are announced
from all directions, and no doubt the vocal
chorus of loo voices. at s o'clock IN the even
ing will receive such hearty welcome as has
rarely been extended to any local choral union.
Conductor Weiss, of the Great Western Band,
has chosen for the musical programmes this
afternoon and evening most of the famous old
German tunes, in honor of the day devoted to
the Fatherland. AS the Mannerchors begin at
S o'clock. they will ind their way made easy by
introducuons in music to German airs. Fol-
lowing is the programme for the afternoon:

The Verdict Unanimous.

W. D. Suit, druggist, Bippus, Ind,
testides: ~ can recommend Electric
Bitters as the very best remedy.
Every bottle sold has given relief in
every case. One man took six bottles
and was cured of rheumatism of 10
years standing Abraham Hare,
druggist, Bellville, Ohio, allirms:
"The best selling medicine | have
ever handled in my 20 years expe-
rience, is Electric Bitters." Thou
sands of others have added their tes-
timony, so that the verdict is unani-
nous that Electric Bitters do cure all
diseases of The liver, kidneys and
blood. Only a half dollar bottle at

Curious Builders.
From the Young Idea.

From the Young Idea,
Our American children have very
little opportunity to watch the strange
homes that many birds build for
themselves, because most of the Gu
rious nest builders live either in
Africa or some other far-away land.
One of these that we have pictured
today is home friend, however.
The red-headed woodpecker is IA
miliar to us all, We have many times
seen him run up trees, using The stiff
feathers in his tail as another foot to
help him stand and we have watched
him using his bill as both chiscl and
hammer, as he dug out his nest in the
soft decayed wood; we have been
sorry for the poor, sluggish worm that
has bored its way to the heart of the
tree as the woodpecker tapped the
bark with his imperative knock, say
ing:
care you there?"
There is no deceiving our friend the
woodpecker, and not q suspected
borer ever escapes his keen eye and
sharp bill.
The strangest of all the homes is
built by the Tailor bird. He lives in
the East Indies; dresses in green with
bright red top-knot. Notice how
curious his nest Isl He goes TO work
in a very businesslike way. This is
his manner of building: .
He sometimes picks up a dead leaf
and sometimes uses two that grow on
the same tree, and sews them togeth-
er. When he has cotton thread he
uses it, when he hasn't it he weaves
thread for himself from the raw cotton
that he finds.
The nest itself is hidden far in the
depths of this pouch and is woven out
of flax and cotton and lined with
horse hair.
There are two birds that live in
Africa that have queer nests, One is
called Pinc-pinc because that is what
it always cries. 1t builds a home
more than foot wide and literally
ties a great many plants together in
order to do it. 1t leaves an opening
three inches wide for the pine pine
family to enter. The other bird be-
longs to the Warblers, and builds a

Children S Corner.
THE NAUGHTY FAIRIES.
BY MARGARET II. SANGsTER.

There are two or three naughty fairies
VINO Turk in our pretty house,
They are sly as the willy foxes,
And one is as still as mouse,
And one can growl and mutter
And one has a chain on her feet,
These naughty and mischievous fairies,
Whom you may have happened to meet
The still .as-a-mouse one whispers
When bit of work must be done,
ooh just let 1t go till to morrow,
And take to day for fun"
And tine mutter- and growl one prlcks you
Till you quicker your face in scowl
Or whlmper and fret in corner,
Or stand on the floor and howl
But the worst of the three bad fairies
Is the one with the chain on her feet
And the strangest thing is her fancy
For a child who is gay and sweet.
She makes her forget an errand,
And loiter when she should haste,
And many precious hour
She causes the child to waste.
Should you happen to see these fairies,
Please pass them proudly by
With lips set close and firmly,
And flash in your steadfast eye,
For three very naughty people
These little fairies be,
Who mean, wherever they're hiding,
No good to you and me.
Woman's chronicle. (Little Rock, Ark.) 1888-1???, 1889-03-02

nest OUT OIL slf0ng, rank grass an(
shapes it just like purse. 1t does
not have door-bell, but there lis s
charming side entrance at which the
Warblers appear when they are sere
naded.
These birds, however, are thrown
in the shade when we remember thu
wonderful bird-towns built by the
Sociable Weavers who also live il
Africa.
Several hundred unite and build 8
roof, matching it very neatly will
Bushman's grass. Then there is {
main street and on each side a nest
about two inches apart. Each veal
a new nest is made, but not a new
roof, the old nest is used as an addi
tlonal covering and the new one
placed just below.
After some years this bird town be.
comes unsafe from its great weight
and then the little creatures begin
again.
In India the brilliant Sun bird lives
and builds nest which it entirely
covers with cobwebs in order to pre-.
vent people from finding it. The
door is turned in toward the bush
from which it hangs and just over the
entrance there is the cutest little
portico to protect The open space from
the weather.
The Oven bird which lives in South
America builds from clay and straw a
regular little oven about twelve inches
in diameter with wall an inch thick.
1t has two rooms, the nest being in
the inner one. The oven is in a very
exposed situation but The nest is never
disturbed, as the inhabitants regard
the birds as sacred.
In India there is a bird which has
a strange little nest, but is more re-
markable for the curious way in which
it always appears with a powdered
head like lady of hundred years
ago going TO a ball. This is from the
pollen of the flowers into the heart OF
which it darts its little puff of feath-
ers.
In Australia, however, the birds
have curious bowers that have defed
the naturalists to explain the use of.
They are not for nests and seem SIM
ply for Fairgrounds. They are about
three feet in length. First a plat
form is built, then it is covered with
twigs woven neatly, and within it is
beautifully decorated with shells,
grasses, bleached bones and stones Of
bright colors.
There are avenues plainly marked
out, these resorts are never entirely
deserted by the Bower birds and on
some occasions are crowded. The
birds run in and out iu a gay manner
as If at an entertainment.
There are plenty of curious things
around us and we need not 90 10
Africa, Australia or even ten miles
from home to find them out if we only
use our eyes. FLORENCE FAY.
