The barbecue given by the Martin
Democratic Club on the 10Th was a
grand success, and the demonstration
that day showed that the 9TH district is
still true to the Democracy.
The clans began to assemble at an
early hour, and by halfpast ten in the
morning hundreds Of Democrats young
and old thronged the streets of Martin.
A little later the Brandywine Club
made Its appearance in a long process
sion Of horsemen, who marched straight
on through the village to q neighborfng
pine grove where the orators were to
speak. A cannon shot brought the
scattered crowd together and at IL
o'clock the speakers ascended the stand
before an audience numbering about
600.
Prominent on the stand was a great
banner with the inspiring motto, mo
Third Party in Ours"
The first address came from Col.
Hooker, who was introduced by Chas.
b. Darden, president of the Martin
Club. After few Introductory re-
marks he recalled his fight in 1890 a.
gaInst the sub-trcasury bill, and again
exposed its fallacies, showing that con-
gress has no right 10 lend money to
anybody or for any purpose. He at
tackled the force bill, which he consid-
cred very "liye issue with the Re
publicans deplored the third-party ag-
itation, 80 dangerous to Democratic
unity, and avowcd his belief that it
was part Of a Republican plot to divide

age Of silver, which he favored, and
closed with q tribute to Mr. Cleveland.

time had come for change Of leader

hoped to see the Democratic party de-
clare against any restrictions whatsoever
on commerce deprecated the policy Of
abusing the Mississippi Democrats who
leaned towards the third party, and
thought argument and persuasion
should be used to win the wanderers
back. Mr.. Dodds then devoted consid-
cradle time to criticizing his distinguish
cd opponents position on several ques-
tions that came before the last congress-
Col. Hooker made a vigorous reply
to Mr.. Dodds structures, and was fol-
lowed BY that gentleman whose remarks
ended the discussion. These two clos
ing speeches were decidedly lively, each
orator making sharp thrusts at the 9TH
err but preserving perfect courtesy.
The audience enjoyed the fun, as their
vocifcrous cheers testified. Col. Hook
er had a number Of warm friends on
hand; but the Dodds men were plainly
in the majority. Many ladies were
present listening as attentiyely as the
men. Even two smart showers that
fell did not drive them to seek shelter ;
and when the hastily-bnilt seats col
lapsed beneath them, they stood pa
tiently till the end.
About two o'clock dinner was an
nounced. There was an abundance Of
substantial, well-cooked food and the
crowd did full justice to it. Martins
guests came from all parts Of district .,
from IIermanyille, Port Gibson, Rus
sum, ETC., and there were many from
Jefferson county. There was no speak
ing after dinner and the crowd gradu-
ally dispersed to their homes.
The enthusiastic spirit manifested
convinced everybody that district . is
not going to lose the reputation it has
enjoyed from the days Of Andrew jack
son rs a Democratic stronghold.

Large Numbers of Them In the Public
faassep~- Schools OF Germany.
Some alarm has been created in Ger
many by the recent publication Of the
official report and statistics Of educas
ton, which show that among the chil-
dren now attending the public schools
in Emperor Williams dominions there
are no less than eighty thousand af-
nicted with the defect Of speech known
as stammering. The city Of Breslau
alone, says the Chicago Mail, contrib-
utes a quota Of twenty-four hundred
suffering children to the total and in
some places the number OF stamfnerers
attains the large proportion Of ten per
cent. Of the school attendance.
Realizing the growth as well as the
gravity Of the mischief. the German
government has for some months past
devoted considerable attention 10 the
subject, and has gathered together
much interesting information about the
matter. The most valuable report is
that contributed by DR.. Gutzmann. so
wen known throughout the world for
his successful teachings of deaf mutes.
and whose absence from the interna-
tional convention of instructors Of deaf
mutes recently In session in New York
was q matter Of sincere regret TO the
delegates. --sl,t->s n. s>9.Ass
According 70 DR.. Gutzmann. whose
report has been adopted and published
by the German government. involun-
tary mimicry plays a great part in slut
tering. Like yawning, il Is catching.
The quicker a child Is and the more i'm.
itative, the more apt II is 10 imbibe any
defects Of speech on the part Of those
by whom 1t Is surrounded. Conclusive
evidence Of the contagious nature of
stammering is TO be found in the fact
that the number Of Sufferers In a
school increases steadily as the chill
1ren pass upward from class TO class.
In the public schools of Berlin, for In
stance, the number Of stammerers
among the children in the lowest class
was 0,52 of the total force Of the class.
This proportion rose from year 70 year,
as the children passed upward in the
educational scale, until in the highest
class the percentage was discovered 70
be 1.61, or more than three times the
number found when the same children
were In the lowest class. =.
Comprehending that it would be only
with special care and particular pre-
caution on the part Of the teachers that
the public schools could be prevented
from becoming centers for the propaga-
tion of the grave defect of suffering,
the German government has encouraged
DR.. Gutzmann 70 start a special course
of scientific instruction for public
school-teachers showing them how to
deal with the stammerers, and the
public schools in all parts Of Germany
have now sent teachers to Berlin for
the purpose Of acquiring DR.. Gutz-
mann's method. So satisfied Is the en-
peror with the latter that he has taken
o leading part in securing its general
adoption by all the educational institu-
tions in his dominions. ~

THE "BEAU sRUMMELL" TIP. J

Hints 70 Those Who Wish TO Acquire the
a. Latest Mode Of Salutatlon. "a
! II a young gentleman feels that Il Is
his imperative duty to be thoroughly
conversant with oil the latest kinks,
fads and wrinkles of modern society,
says the Cleveland Leader. he must at
once learn the Beau Brumm0ll" style
of tipping the hat. This is an acquired
art, as q relish for olives is an acquired
taste to most people. The best way TO
become familiar with the new style Is
to stand in front Of a mirror and prac-
tice steadily for week or two. AT the
end Of that time it Is barely possible
that the pupil win know his lesson
well. The rules for the new style, as
laid down by one of Cleveland's bright
est young society men are as follows;
Never undertake TO tip your hat un-
less the left foot Is well In front Of the
right. That brings your body In a
graceful position and viii commend
you at once to the favorable observa-
tion of any young lady who has knowl-
edge Of the principles Of the Delsarte
system.
Bring the right hand, II the lady Is
on your left side, in graceful curve
10 the brim of the hat Be sure that
your hand describes curve, otherwise
the motion viii be similar TO half O
dozen others associated with matters
of the head. For instance, an abrupt
angular motion might delude the young
woman into believing thatyou intended
TO pluck a cinder from your eye.
Grasp the hat lightly by the brim, be-
ing sure that the little finger Of the
hand thus employed sticks up at what
might be termed an aristocratic angle.
Gently remove the hat and bring II
forward at height of two inches above
your head until an imaginary line des-
cribing the angle with your body would
terminate at the third vest button. l.r
r Smile with aristocratic grace.
: Incline your head slightly as the IA
vored one passes and move the lips a
trife as though extending greeting,
being careful, however, not TO appear
audibly until the young lady has first
addressed you.
This may look like an easy trick, but
it Is really something very hard 10 mas
ter and perform with excellencei so
those say that have attempted it. Of
one thing, however, the young men
may be assured. That Is, that very
much of their standing in ''dudedom"
depends upon being able to do the
Beau Brummell" tip There are
number Of young gentlemen who prom
eDade up and down every afternoon in
the Arcade, practicing the new thing
before the show windows, and observ-
ing their reflections in the glass.
