THE MILITIA GO HOME.
The Tents Of the Legion No Longer on Arm.
strongs Farm-The Encampmenta Success.

The last companies of the Indiana Le-
giOn folded their tents yesterday morning,
and although the members did not steal
away like the poetical Arab their depart
ure from Camp Hovey was accomplished
without any difficulty or confusion. Re-
veille was sounded at A. NJ, breakfast
dispatched about an hour later, and by A.
NJ. the militiamen were ready to take the
train which was sent out to convey them to
the Union Station. There was some little
hitch in providing baggage cars sufficient
for the camp impedimenta, but the defect
was finally remedied, and by 8
o'clock the companies were on their
bomeward way. bronzed aud hearty from
their active life in camp, and heartily
pleased with the result of their experience.
There was some little feeling among few
of the militiamen over the rigid discipline
enforced in camp, and a dispatch received
last evening from Fort Wayne states that
there is some indi gnatiOn expressed there
over the verdict of the cOurt-martial dis
missing Sergeant Kerr, of the Fort Wayne
Rifles for deserving his post. There is
some talk of dlsbanding the company in
consequence of the alleged severity of the
sentence, but the majority of the men in
camp appreciated the fact that the en-
campment meant business and not frOlic,
and that the rigid rules enforced were for
the good of the service.
General Ruckle says he is well satisfied
with the result of the weeks work. THE
only trouble experienced he said grew
out of the fact that previous encampments
were regarded as play-times, rather than
schools of instruction. and it was hard to
make some of the boys in camp realize that
this was a different sort of affair. Now
that there is a clear understanding as to
the purpose of the Legion encampments
we are not likely to have any
further trouble. The site proved
an admirable one. and / think
both officers and men protited by their ex-
p.rience while there AS to its cost, /
think we shall come within the apprOpria-
ton allowed US. The rent of the farm for
the week was 500, and there viii be some
additional expenses in replacing things as
we found them, but it was the best site for
a camp in this vicinity, as we found by full
investigation"
There is an error in q report of the re-
view given in honor of the Governor, Col.
Ewing's regiment being designated as the
Third instead of the First, but without ex-
ception the men expressed themselves as
pleased with the attention shown them by
the city press.

Concealed Weapons.

The legislature at its next session shonid
take some decided steps toward putting
stop to the carrying of concealed weapons
The law against this pernicieas habit is either
too loose or too loosely executed. Nine cut
of every ten young men of to-day are guilty
of carving weapons concealed about their
person They actually believe that their
wardrobe is not complete unless they have q
dirk, brass knuckles or pistol hidden away
in their clothing, which they can bring into
immediate use in case of angry debate. Nine
out OF every ten who violate this law are new
er punished, and consequently have grown to
feel that this law is unimportant and is SIM
nIv on the statute books as q seare-crow.
This habit Ia very hurtfnl to society and
should be stopped. II fosters spirit OF dis.
respect for the laws, aud at the same time
forces men who are otherwise law-abiding, e.
violate this statute in order TO be on an equal
footing with The lawiess and turbulent class
Of society.
TO suppress the carrying ef concealed Wea
mons we should engraft into our Law on TINS
subject a part of both the Texas and Arkan
sas laws The manufacture and sale OF Wea
mons which can be concealed should pc pro
/ Libited IN the State, and whoever is i0nns
| guilty or carrying concealed weapons, shouls
] Be made to suffer both q tine and linpr,son
nans. Such q provision would strike at bot
the root and branch Of the evil. Eafmervlli

Pirated Ideas of How Girls Act
While kissing.

The Chicot girl removeth her specks,
And freezeth her face with smile,
Then sticks ont her mouth like an open book.
And cheweth her wax meanwhile.
The Grand Coteau girl bows her stately head,
And fixes her stylish lips
In firm, hard way, and let's them go,
In spasmodc little snips.
The Washington girl the pride of her town,
In her clinging and soulful way,
Ahsorbs it all with a yearning yearn,
AS big as a bale Of hay -
The Vile Plate girl says neveioa word,
And you'd think she was rather tame;
With her practical view ofthe matter in hand,
But she gets there all the same.
The Bellevue girl, creature divine,
Whether wife, widow or miss,
Looks into your eyes with her starlit orbs,
And puts her whole soul in a kiss.
The Plaquemine girl will at first refuse,
just to have You insist and plead,
But when she finally does consent,
Her kiss you'll confess takes tho lead
The Chataignter girfe1oses her dreamy eyes,
W. I'm asked to osCulate,
And lets the vandal steal the kiss,
Which she really likes first rate.
The I.6onville girl on tip toe stands,
Her lips so rosy and red,
You take her checks in both your hands,
And let heERo, Gallagher, dead
The Arnaudville girl, so gentle and sweet,
Lets her lips meet the coming kiss
With raptuous warmth, and the youthful souls
N44at away on "a sea of bliss.
The Bayou B9uf girl leans back i'll her chair,
The sweetest and loyeliest elf,
She opens her mouth and shuts her eyes,
And--you know how it is yourself.
But when you want the sweetest kiss,
Ever given to the son of man,
Ask the Opelousas girls to show you how,
For they know the slickest plan.

There is quiet charm in we'll hammered

ing, "What % lot of young savages What
foolish people their parents are to permit
such rowdyism These rude young fellows
who can't answer question politely are sure
to turn out ill except they mend their ways"
Yes, be sure of it, they got their tone under
the roof tree; and if it is low tone and = an

morals are closely allied. If home and school

suit of this mi. ute training for life purposes
is almost nil. is culpable folly to send

the cotton and although every effort is made
to exterminate them the farmers are despon-

ably injured. This year has been one of trial
to our thrifty farmers. The spring SO
dry that nothing could be planted or worked
in its season it was feared for while that
the crops would prove complete failure !;
