Grand Circus Park Just as the clock in
the city hall was Ginning the

City of the Straits a mounted
troop wheeled around the corner OF
Woodward avenue and into the Campus
Martins. simultaneously snow white
handkerchief futtered in the hands of q
woman with clear cut, commanding
features and snow white hair comhed
back from the forehead, and who sat on
the very front OF the grand stand. She
rose to her feet and the handkerchief
futtered higher. Those around her rose
also. The band struck up the familiar
air Of "Auld Lang Syne" and 10000
voices Joined In the strain. Then, a.
the music died away, there was cheer,
and another, until from ell parts Of the
campus, an 1t were, o mighty roar Of

Fmidst Of the tuf6ult the lady who had

some other Incidents
Preceding the comrades from the
Keystone state were two miniature gun
carriages drawn by white popies and
d.iven by two little boys. The AilA-
gheny City band, composed largely OF
little fellows who had but recently got
ten into knickerbockers, was another
feature of the division that came In Tor

rank of Memorial post, Of Cleveland,

was shot off from the hip at GettysburR,
hobbled along on crutches, and col

nowned Private DalEell headed the
line Of Lawrence post, of Columbus,
lin recognition of which the band
THAT came behind played nothing but
the 'Razzle-dazzle' air throughout the
line Of march. For fear that the Private
would get all the recognition the post
accompanied itself with score of good
looking and well-formed young girls in
military relief caps, white bodices and
blue skirts who marched along like
echooled veterans, looking neither to the
right nor to the left, in appreciation OF
the greeting that kept their cheeks
Hinged with the hot blood.
There were forty y-seven divisions in

Roth Washington Vi and Lincoln, Neb.,
Working Hard for IL.
DETROIT, Aug. 5.-The politics On
the Grand Army have been an object OF
much importance all day, first on the
selection Of place Of encampment, and
second for tho choice of commander.in.
chief. While
Washington Has the Lead
in location, the champions of the capitol
can not rest on their oars, as hustlers
from Lincoln, Neb., are here, and when
hustlers from that state arrive it means
hustle from first to last. They are
waging losing fight, an uphill fight,
but are doing Il with 30 much good, win,
90 much vim, and almost In the face OF
defeat, that the old veterans, many of
whom have led forlorn hope, cannot
bot admire their pluck, although they
do not want to 60 there. Should Wash
ington let up in its cxertions, then they
might think of helping Lincoln. Wash
ington won't do anything of the kind,
however, and Frank Hatton, who Is
head and front Of the Columbia war;
fiors, will win and have the pleasure OF
getting an affirmative answer to the In
vitation Of silver on platter Of gold
with the key Of the city Of Washington
surmounting it.
For Commander-in-ChieE
A new candidate has sprung up in the
person Of Smedburg, Of California, who
has the sure backing of New England

A WORLDS FAIR ROMANCE.
One of the Lady Managers Won by Ste
nographcr Who Took Her speech.

One of the Lady Managers Won by a ste-
nographer Who Took Her speech.
Monday, just week ago, Miss Cora
ID. Payne, the lady manager from Ken
tucky, disappeared from the Worlds fair
headquarters. She left a note TO the
other ladies, stating that she had been
called home on important business and
would return in a few days. The ladies'
paid no particular attention to the mat
ter, as Miss Payne frequently visited her
southern home and returned without
anything eyentful transpiring. When
Miss Payne put in an appearance, how
ever, the ladies put aside their apathy,
for she was no longer Miss q. Payne, but
Mrs. Alfred jackson. Mrs. jackson was
not dressed in the gala attire of<e bride.
Her toilet was even qnieter than usual.
1t was so quiet that 1t excited suspicion.
Have you lost any relativesT inquired
Mrs Bullene, Of Missouri. solicitously.
Mrs. jackson did not reply at once:
She just blushed and looked down at her
desk Mrs. Bullene repeated her ques-
tion in louder tone of voice. Still Mrs.
jackson seemed not to hear it, and acted
in timorously preoccupied manner. IL
do believe that Miss Payne went away
and got married." said Mrs. Bullene to
another lady manager.
Then vocal sparring match took place
between the ladies. Mrs. jackson de
MED emphatically that such was the case,
but her color was SO high that she be-
| trayed herself. Finally, driven to bay,
Mrs. jackson confessed that she was
Mrs jackson
Miss Payne came from Kentucky last
fall when the woman's commission met,
and evincing lively interest in the
woman's branch of exposition work. she
was asked to remain in Chicago and
iden,ify herself with the Chicago head
quarters. Her husband was at the time
stenographer in Director General
Davis Office. He is a smooth shaven,
round faced young man, with peculiar
manner Of speech, but it was the hesitat-
ing manner of speech that won the lady
/ manager from the south. Every morn
ing they walked To the Office together,
and every evening they were seen 10 de-
part in company.
They never knew each other before
the first session of the woman's commits
graphic report of the meeting Miss
Payne had just finished making q
speech. The confusion was great at the
time and jackson could not catch all
that she said. As she seated herself he
went quietly over to her seat and asked
her politely to repeat what she said
! Their eyes met, and 1t was then that
Miss Payne felt her first sensation Of
love and Mr. jackson lost his heart.
Things progressed nicely until the
time for the marriage came, and 1t was
then Miss Payne suggested q deception
that was executed admirably. Instead
of going home she went with her hus-
band that was TO be TO London, Canada,
where his parents resided, and there
the marriage ceremony was performed.
Mr.. and Mrs. jackson will reside in
Chicago, and Mrs. jackson will continue
to represent her state in the exposition.

Not a little of the success of the La

its president, Mrs. Shelton. The club
was organized not more than two years
ago, and has now over 400 members,
and an increase 10 double that number
is contemplated with the purchase of
the adjoining house. The custom dur
ing Lent has been 10 have a morning
concert every Tuesday for the pleasure
of the members, and for the purpose OF
giving new and unknown singers and
musicians chance TO be heard. On
such occasions the rooms are crowded
and Mrs. Shelton Is charming and
genial hostess. She lives in the club
house with her family, her private rooms
being beautifully furnished.
Mrs. Rossiter johnson is the founder
Of the Meridian club, and would be
called the president II there were one;
but the club recognizes no such Office.
A chairwoman is appointed at each meet

meetings; nothing is ever said about
them by the members---New York
