THE GRAND ARMY.

] was gratified and pleased to notice
that in the parade Of the police force
last Wednesday, the colors were carried
by the company commanded by Capt.
Costine. Ii is safe to say that they
could not have been entrusted TO more
worthy men. Capt Costine is n veteran
Of the war, and his record as First Ser
geant in Company H., First United
States cavalry, is one in which he may
take Just pride. He was one of Phil
Sheridan's soldiers in the Valley. He is
member of Prescott Post, No. l.,
G.. A. II.
Dept. Commander B. II. Child and
staff will visit Lincoln Post, No. %,
Hope Valley, next Tuesday.
The most notable event this week in
the Grand Army was the lecture given
before the posts of this city and vicinity
by DIR. Roscoe l.. Greene. pastor of
Trinity M. Il. Church, himself a mem
Der of the Grand Army of the Republic.
The department commander and staff
were present, and Gen. Il. Fl. Rhodes
presided.
Comrade Greene's lecture was entitled
campaigning with Phil Sheridan" A
brief sketch OF Comrade Greene's mill
tary career may not be inappropriate
here. He was mere lad in 1864, when
the war fever attacked him. He went to
his father and expressed his desire to en-
list. The father said TO him, my boy
Just go in and let your mother rock you
u little" Nothing daunted, however,
the young fellow who was too youthful
in appearance to be taken as an
able-b bodied soldier, finally did sue
ceed in enlisting as drummer
boy in Company A, Fourteenth Maine
Infantry, and went with his regiment to
the front. Ii was stationed in Louisiana
during the earlier portion of its term of
service, and was assigned to the Nine
teenth army corps. The Fourteenth
Maine was one of the regiments that
went with the Nineteenth corps to Vir.
ginia in 1864, and after performing good
service in front of Petersburg, the corps
proceeded to the Shenandoah Valley
where they came under the command OF
Gen. Sheridan.

The Paris restaurants have wealth Of
stories about eccentric diners. Prince
Soltykoff, according to the gossips, was
accustomed to consult the menus at two
Of the most celebrated houses, choosing
that which had his favorite dishes. After
dining well he used to give the waiter in
structions to wake him in couple Of
hours, whereupon he would drop into a
sound sleep, and hardly move until his
time was up.
The Duke of Brunswick was frequent
customer at the house which often secured
the princes patronage. On one occasion,
1t is said, a Russian committed suicide at
table near where he was dining. The
nobleman consequently sent for the pro-
prietor and bitterly upbraided him for
allowing his digestion to be upset by So
tragic n scenel
IL was in the same restaurant that a
number of gentlemen dined daily for forty
five years-a record which beats that Of
the Grand hotel of Indianapolis, the pro-
prietor of which says that he had boarder
who regularly paid his monthly bill for
sixteen ysars.-London Tit-Bits.

In tho fall OF 1881, Mr.. Blaine, then Sec
retary OF State In the Cabinet OF Presi-
dent Arthur, sent for Creighton Webb and
urged him to act as an escort for the
representatives Of the French Government
at tho Yorktown celebration.
One day II occurred to Mr.. Webb that the
French officers would be entertained by a
visit to Daly's theatre. Mr.. DAILY at once
reserved two boxes for the party, and
during the performance suggested that
perhaps Boulanger and his friends would
like to meet the actors and actresses be-
hind tho scenes. Boulanger at once became
qtite excited. He would be charmed. So
they were escorted behind the scenes and
introduced.
When Boulanger was presented to Miss
Ada Rehan he manifested little too con-
spicuous delight. He chatted with her
politely enough for few moments, but
was so demcnstrative that she was
anxious to escape him. At last, as she
turned to leave him, Boulanger allowed
his ardor TO get the better OF him. He
seized Miss Rehan by the hand and at
tempted to embrace her. and when she re-
sented this familiarity with an anger which
was not simulated, he seemed to think
that IL was merely the custom, and he
grew much more vehement. Atlast he was
violent. and Miss Rehan. now thoroughly
alarmed, called for help, and in an
instant there was a scene. Some Of
the male members OF Mr.. Daly's COM
pany laid violent hands on Boulanger,
and ono OF them would have thrown him
20 the floor had he not been restrained.
1t looked for an instant as though there
surely would be fight there. In the con-
fusion Miss Rehan and the other women

hind the scenes In the French theatres,
did not realize that such things as we're
permitted in Paris were not tolerated
here.

The English sparrow has a mortal enemy
in the common red headed woodpecker,
who, though no giant among birds, is as
big as half dozen English sparrows, and
not afraid Of half a hundred. The wood
pecker's beak is so hard, and his head and
neck are so powerful that in single peck
he can kill a sparrow, and the English
birds have become aware of his powers and
are very much afraid of him. The appear
ance Of red headed woodpecker will set
whole lot of sparrows to flight, and the
only time they will face him is when he
makes an onset on their nests.
The eggs OF the sparrows are not larger
than peas, and their young about the size
of grubworm and nestful of young
sparrows is n dainty picnic for a wood
pecker, which he is careful not TO overlook
The sparrows will fight, but they cannot
drive him awny.-Drake's Magazine
