IN a BABY CARRIAGE.
Women Tourists In japan Fond of
Jinrickfsha Riding.

Women Tourists In japan Fond of
Jinrickishn Riding.
John A. Cockerill's Yokohama Letter.
1t is interesting here to visit the hatoba,
or landing pier, when a freshly arrived
steamer sets her passengers ashore. All
there know of the jinrckisha. They have
read of it. Their minds are all set on the
little cart. Their faces are full Of the ex-
pectancy common to those who visit for the
first time a strange shore. When their eyes
light for the first time on the jinrickisha
they SMILE They seem to say, That's ii.
The women are specially study. No
woman can mount into a jinrickisha for
the first time without smiling and blushing
In all probability she Will have laugh as
the kurimaya tucks her skirts in tenderly.
There she is for the second time in life,
perhaps, in a baby carriage. A sense Of
babyhood seems to come over her as the We
bicle trots away, and the happy, foolish
look on her face indicates that she wants
to clap her hands and cry, Goo, goo,' with
infantile glee. If the weather be pleasant
the chances are five to one that she Will
be in a jinrickisha within an hour after she
arrives at the hotel. OF course, she will
say that she needs some toilet articles and
that she wants to be directed to shop
where she can supply herself, but the dia-
mohd-pointed truth is that she wants to
have another ride in that baby carriage.
All women do not find the jinrickisha
pleasant, especially on lopg Journeys. The
Jogging, swaying motion Is most irrita ting
one sees many here who seem to be jim
rickisha mad, and who never seem quite
happy unless they are ygadding about in
one.

vania, New Jersey and Delaware, fair;

threatening by Saturday night, with caster
" winds.
For Virginia, generally fair; cooler;
northerly winds, shifting to easterly.

The barometer has risen throughout the

was claimed that his excellency was 100
free with the use of state funds tor tnls
purpose.
It is more than likely that strong effort
will be made to pass measures limiting the
power of the governor in this directon:
There are two sides of the question, both OF
which are strongly backed, and 1t Is almost
certain that the subject will precipitate a
lively fight.
The Alexander Island Scandal.
Another question which will create a
brisk controversy is the disgraceful situa-
ticn of affairs which prevailed last winter
at Alexander Island. Gov. O'Ferrall him
self will try to induce the legislature to take
some important steps in this direction. The
governor has repeatedly expressed deep
regret that the laws, as they now stand,
permitted such racing and bogus sport as
tcck place at Alexander Island. and he has
made up his mind to make some recommen-
dations to the legislature bearing upon this
matter
He will be strongly supported by the
repre- sentative turfmen of the state,
who will hold a mass meeting in this city
just before the legislature meets. and for
mLlate plans through which the nuisance
at Alexander Island may be abolished.
These turfmen viii have speeches on the
subject setting forth the damaging influence
upon legitimate sport in the state wrought
by the oEe-sded and crooked business that
prevailed at Alexander Island, and will for
ward a petition with recommendations to
the legislature in regard to the matter. An
effort will be made to pass measures by
WI ich ouly legitimate and honest racing
will be allowed in Virginia.
Sunday Saloons.
Not the least of the many important
measures to occupy the attention of the
legislature will be the sale of liquor in
cities On Sunday, and the gambling ques-
ttmatic crusade against these two prac-
tees. and the attention of the. legislators
will be called to a number of statistics
which will open their eyes to the necessity
of either modifying the present Sunday
liquor Jaw, or framing new measures, more
in keeping with the wishes of the people.
1t is expected that this question Will create
one of the most vigorous fights that will
ccme up In the legislature this year.
Rickm0nd's Charter.
1t is more than likely that an effort will
be made to amend the charter of the city of
Richmond. to provide that number
of. city officials now chosen by the city
&C Lncil will be selected by direct vote of
the people This is the principal question
now agitating local politics, and has been
the predominating influence in inducing the
representatives of the laboring people Of
Richmond to put an Independent legislative
ticket IN the field
The Age of Consent.
The Womans Christian Temperance
Union Of the state will make effort to
have the legislature change the age of con-
sent. This is expected to develop some SEN
sational debates, and may meet with vigor-
Gus opposition.
The question of good roads, which is now
occupying the minds of many of the agri-
cultural people in the state will also be
considered by the legislature.

From the Macon Ga.) Telegraph.


A terrapin about as large around as a
silver dollar was the subject of good deal
OF talk in Valdosta the other day, and the
same terrapin has come near settling in
the minds of some people the theory that
fish, frogs and the like are often rained
down in severe storms. During the heavy
rain of last Friday the terrapin fell in the
street between Middleton's shoe shop and
Davis beef market. 1t was seen to strike
the ground by two men in the shoe shop
ard by Mr.. Davis little boy. There is no
explanation as to where it came from, eX-
cept on the theory that it rained down,
and the question Low is, Was that really
the case?

was brought before a magistrate upon the
charge of "wantonly and maliciously kill

premeditated The defendant upon arraign-

The Summer Girls Vnledictory.
From Puck.
1t Was her last day at the seashore. All
summer she had held sway over the hearts
Of the young men who had come down by
the sea to conquer, only to fall victim to
her wiles. Her last day! The men were
gone. The season was at an end. The Sep
TENDER nights already were cool to chilli
ness in premonit!on of the equinox.
Her last day! She rose from the sands,
her dainty bathing suit clinging to her
lithesCme shape, and stretched herself as
one a-weary. Her mind ran over her con-
quests here upon the shore, upon her rivals.
If she could dignity them as such, and then
she turned with supercil.ous smile of
scorn toward the sea, the restless ceaseless
sea.
And as for you''-she turned for a last
look-"you never touched me!'
low moan came sobbing back from the
sullen surf, and, with laugh, she ran up
the beach and was gone.
