The man who awakes at daylight
hears strange music, 1t comes from
the throats OF thousands of crows sail
ing over the city. They roost in the
pine groves beyond ex-President Cleve-
lands mansion at Red Top, and feed
along the East Potomac and its tribu-
taries. Every morning they HE to their
feeding grounds and at night return
to their roosts. They stream around
the dome OF the Capitol after sundown
in long lines. but in silence. In the
morning, however, as they dash past
Washington Monument and over the
dty, they fill the air with hungry cries.
They usually reach their destination
before sunrise.
The birds have hardly disappeared
and the sun has hardly risen before
troops of little beings nearly as black
as crows appear in the streets. They
are the Washington newsboys. Along
the avenues and up the side streets the
little darkies run shouting the nomes
of the Washington Sunday papers. An
hour later they change their tunes.
The Philadelphia papers have the call
Within another hour the uproar in
creases. The New York papers have
arrived. The boys then penetrate to
every part OF the city. Windows are
raised, and men half dressed tap upon
the easements in efforts to attract their
attention. Hundreds read Washingto
Philadelphia and New York papers in
their beds.
AS the hour of ten approaches, there
are signs Of life in the White House. A
colored coachman, wearing a top hat
with q cocade, and a huge cape of
monkey fur, enters the grounds, and
reins his team in front of the presiden-
tial portico His huge silver buttons
glisten in the morning sunlight. The
borses are combed till they are as sleek
as kittens, and the carriage shines like
polished ebony. Ere long the Presi-
dent. Mrs. Harrison, Mrs Mckee, and
possibly some other member OF the
family. enter the coach. They are
driven to the Church OF the Covenant
As the carriage rolls through the
streets it attracts the attention OF
everybody. A crowd of persons sur.
rounds tho entrance TO tho Church
to gaze upon the President and his wife
as they alight Frequently General
Harrison avoids the sightseers by en-
tering side door.
The Harrison family Is hardly seated
before there are more signs OF life
upon the avenue. Scores of landaus
and buggies are rolling toward the
country. Some go TO Arlington or to
the Soldiers Home. A few take the
Bladensburg road along which immense
conservatories for the raising Of flowers
and hot-houso fruits are located. At
distance the huge glass structures re-
call memories of the Crystal Palace a.

ACCORDING TO MRS. MILLER
gray and lavender, gray and pale yell

and black became the mode. The so
ciety girl, in common with all other
girls, begins 10 wear new dress just as

physical culture opened this week,
stands bravely by her declaration of

Puritan could have desired The even

theatrical performer will appear with a
huge mastiff or a gigantic Siberian

these dogs frequently cost more than
the clothing of their masters.
AS the sun goes down and the dinner
hour approaches, fashionable promenad-
ers disappear. Carriages and buggies
roll in from the suburbs and are fol-

have been wandering among the hills
for health and exercise. Crowds OF

filled. Gossip reigns supreme until the
