These remarks are made BY the RI.
raj World about the primary school
teachers:
Lift your hat reyerently when you
pass the teacher Of the primary school.
She Is the great angel Of the Republic.
She takes the bantling fresh from tho
homenest, full Of pouts and passions, an
ungovernable little wretch whose own
mother honestly admits TINT she sends
him to school TO get rid Of him. The
lady who knows her business takes .
whole chr load o. these anarchists, one
Of whom, single handed and alone, II
more than match for his parents,
and at once puts them in a way Of be-
ing useful and upright citizens. At
what expense Of toll, patience and

!. KEEP orr TIN GRASS. Y


Near Thomas and Coketon,n says
the Cumberland Times, there are
hundreds Of ovens nsed for burning
Of coke, and one Of the jolly superior
dents in an impromptu speech made
to the coke burners the day Of the
election gravely said, III Mr. CleHe-
land is elected, tomorrow morning you
will see grass growing all over the
ovens He thought It an impossible
ity for the Democratic party to win
and made the above powerful predic-
ton. The next day the workmen
when they heard that Cleveland was
elected, put signs on the oven which
bore the following inscription: Please
keep off the grass. The superinten-
dent was rather chagrined when he
saw them, but he appreciated the joke
nevertheless. Some Of the signs are
still ornamenting the ovens.

The People Want a Military Parade but He
Does Not

The People Want Military Parade but He
Does Not
CHICAGO, Oct. I9.-The proposition made
by General Miles to have g night military
parade on Saturday next is not received
with much favor at the city hall. General
Miles called on Mayor Washburne today
to discuss the night parade plan. The
mayors objection was that the streets
could not be sufficiently Illuminated and
that the crowds on the streets being so
large the work could not be satisfactorily
done.
Whatever the outcome of the above pro-
feet is there will be a military parade
Saturday in the public streets where
everybody, whether governor or ordinary
citizens. can see. This was positively de-
cided on 1T a conference today between
General Reese, General Fitzsimm ons
Colonel Koch and others.
Aside from the federal soldiers Il, 900
state troops Will participate, making the
largest massing of national guard on
record In an interview this evening Gen.
Miles is quoted as making this sort OF talk Z:
Il want 20 say that the press of Chicago
has insulted the vice-presidsnt, the su-
preme court and all other distinguished
men. The papers say the people of Chi
caQo don't care 4 continental damn about
seeing those hundreds OF distinguished
visitors as they are escorted from the au-

see a lot of infantry marching st funeral

tently out OF the window before they left.
Slug Is, a hardened old sinner, win prob
ably be found in the rear ranks when the
lads and lasses sing, Follow, Follow, :"
this evening.
Slug Is was entirely unimpressionable,
but it is said that lift, Jessup and Traugh-
per have already placed their orders for
red shirts and regulation caps. Benson is
on the anxious seat, and may be allowed to
march if he is real good boy for the next
few mon tbs.
When the first hymn was announced. 1t
is said, none but SalvationisJ vows were
heard.
In q few moments Billy Nelson's high
tenor was heard above the dir; Jessup's
royal bass followed suit; Traughbsr's
fasetto chimed il sweetly, while lifts
rich baritone and Daveler's second tenor
completed Quartette that should have
competed at the fair, and song after song
rolled forth until ''time" was called.
1t is hoped the plucky Salyationists will
keep up their lick There is certainly no
place in the city that presents better Cd
portunities for the army than the Tribune
Office JAY.
