Il is not asleep it sets up howl for food.
Then the mother thereof is sent for. She
is doing her best to earn the meager sal
ary which the manager of the show pays
her and her husband for helping the per-
formance in the theater, but when the
baby calls she responds. With her war
club in hand, and her bronze brow COW
cred with perspiration from the wild
dance Of the stage, she lies down by the
side of the infant and instantly secures
peace In the little hut, Just as any mother
in Christendom secures peace in her home
where there is a hungry baby.
Then she goes back to her dance. The
Dahomey baby is one Of the principal at
fractions Of the village. All day long
crowd of visitors surround the baby hut
and beg the young black girlwho is left in
charge to fetch the infant forth for popu-
lar inspection. All the women want to
see the savage baby, and their husbands
and brothers bribe the nurse with dimes
and quarters to display , char her
charge. Such a thri pusi-as- re
in this way that I am 4 as to tn
not turnstile or a rex NIX
c7leie TO make d record Of the amount Of
money taken in by the baby show. It is
one Of the very few places along the plais-
ance where money passes from hand to
hand that a sharp-eyed American girl Is
not stationed TO receive the cash and see
that the exposition gets its 25 per cent. and
the proprietors of the show the remainder.
An odd featdre OF these savage shows is
this ubiquity Of the American cash girl.
It is like coming upon your neighbor's
daughter sitting in the jungle Of Africa by
the side Of o patent cash-box, applying
Yankee thrift to the antics Of our savage
primogenitors.

DoINGs IN THE HOUSE,

Washington. Sept. 1.-THE republic
ans continued their deadlock in the
affairs OF the house today, in order to
prevent Tucker from reporting his bill
repeating the federal elections laws
They are determined that the bill shall
not receive place on the calendar un-
til the democrats produce quorum
themselves. In this policy OF delay,
they are again joined by General Ira
cy and small coterie Of the adminis-
tration democrats who are opposed to
going ahead with the Tucker bill at
this time The revoking all leaves of
absence by the order of yesterday, bore
fruit to the extent of forty additional
democrats today, but leaving them still
thirty-one short of quarum, exclu-
sive Of those acting with General Ira
cy. The iilibuster today lasted until 2
o'clock when by TIE previou order of
the house, eulogies on the late Repre-
sentative Chapman of Michigan, We're
delivered. The house then adjourned
Mr.. Tucker and his colleagues hardly
expect to be able to muster quorum
tomorrow, and on Monday, the house
will participate in a body in the cere-
monies attending the centennial cele-
bration Of the laying Of the corner
stone of the capitol. On Tuesday, how
ever, they confidently anticipate the
presence Of their own quorum, and
then they will be able to brush aside
the opposition Of the republicans

The gambler ran but the Texan
brought him to the grohnd with bul-
let in the shoulder and not only recov-

for the retention of duties on cotton
goods Titus Sheard championed the
