PARADE ON WEDNESDAY.
The parade Oh Wednesday will be quite

from Fort Myer have been ordered out
The artillery from Washington barracks

the visiting encampments will bring with
them their own bands and drum corps.
The Union Veteran Legion today has
membership Of nearly 10000. There are
las encampnIents. The objects of the order
are: The cultivation Of true devotion to
American government and Institutions;
the relief OF the Orphans and widows in
distress, and the social. moral and intel
lectual improvement OF the members; the
preservation of friendly relations among
those who fought for the Union.
The present will be the eleventh encamp-
ment OF the legion. General business will
be transacted and officers will be elected.
The encaInpment will last the remainder
of the week.

A Display Of Confidence.

On one Of the busiest corners of
Chicago is newsstand. The young
man who sells papers has a large
and abundant confidence in human
nature, for as soon as he gets his
papers displayed at the stand he
empties q handful of niokels and
pennies on top of paper. He cries
his wares without intermission, for
he holds bundle of papers under
his arm. But for every paper he
sells from the bundle he carries he
sells two from his stand. His GUS
toners, who know him, pick out
their papers, lay the coins on the
stand and walk away. If they lay
down a nickel or q dime, they make
change for themselves from the
loose coin placed for that purpose

The total number Of distinct
words in the New Testament, ex-
Guiding proper names and their. de-
rivatives, is 4,829. The vocabulary
of the Old Testament is much larger.
According to Gesmin's Lexicon, "
the Old Testament contains $50
distinct words, not counting proper
names and obsolete roots. A few
comparisons with the above may
not prove uninteresting. The I'll

contain 9,011 distinct words. Milton

pains to tell how it may be done, and
we shall do our best in our weak way
to give the information to our readers.
Meantime, however, if you do not
quite understand don't blame US.
If it is woman's skull, we are told
that it's occipital region will be larger
relatively than if it was mans, like
wise the superior mesial part Of its
forehead. But DR.. Them Cottbus
publishes in the Archiv fuer Klinische
Chirurgie a dead sure test which
means yet more. You can tell the
sex of a skull from the relative height
Of the ostympanicum, which forms
part of the posterior wall on the
glenoid or socket of the lower jaw
bone and closes in the bony meatus
of the ear. Now, the ostympanicum
rises perpendicularly from the petrous
portion of the temporal bone posteri-
orly-that is, we think this is what
the learned doctor thinks he means
to say. In spite, however, of the fact
that the ostympanicum rises perpen-
dicularly from the petrous portion of
the temporal bone posteriorly, we are
informed in the next sentence that in
woman's skull it inclines backward at
about half the height of the mastoid
process in woman and not so far in
man. If, therefore, your ostympani-
cum, which rises perpendicularly, in
clines backward noticeably, then you
are a women; if not SO much, then
you are a man. Finally, note the
most important difference of all: In
a man the observation-disclosures
toidea is small, and it is not possible
for the condyloid process to slip over
the posterior wall Of the glenoid cav
ity. Woman's skull, on the other
hand, has a laundering great big
fossa-tympanico-st ylo-mastoidea. We
always knew there was something
wrong with women. .~.4sssf

The late bishop of Winchester is
said to have possessed among his
many other qualities that Of sar.
casm. A good story is told of re-
tort he made to the late Lord Bran
well, who, meeting him on his way
back to his room to take of his robes
after reading prayers in the house
of lords, apologized for having been
absent from the ceremony.
"When I kneel down, it gives me
palpitation of the heart, said Lord
Bramwell, land it would not be re-
spectful for me to sit or stand while
your lordsbip was praying"
Bishop Thorod, perhaps knowing
almost as much about the old baron 3
sanctity as did Lord Bramwell him
self, answered in measured tones:
"Pray do not mention it. Lord
Bran we'll. I am sure your lordship
can be equally devout whether you
are standing, knesling or dtting-I
will not say lying ~ NJ

inquired who had read prayers that
afternoon, and on being told remark

A FRENCH SQUIRE.

How He Dressed, His Weakness For Per-
Il fume and What Hs Ate.
The squiro's shoes were of a very
plain and solid make, little better
than those provided for his laborers,
and such was his economy that he
bought leather and had them re-
soled by a oobhler living at the
chateau. He was much more partic-
ular about his headgear. Felt hats
were brought by sea from Rouen to
Cherbourg. Gonberville paid 25
francs forihis own, while those Tor
his servants were not more thansa
third Of that price. His rich velvet
caps costsnearly 40 francs.
The squire had q peculiar weak
ness for perfumes, which he di y ill
ed on the spot, such as rosewater,
Damascus water, "eau a la mode"
.eto., and he did not think it beneath
his dignity to 60 and gather the
pinks at a neighboring monastery.
he was also very fastidious with re-
gard: to his gloves and would pay u
francs q pair for them. F&# 81.
"a word may be added as to the
arrangements for the table at the
chateau. The -four was ground and
the bread made at home, although
when there was not time to do so
loaf of 10 pounds would be bought
from the. baker for 3 francs. He
paid higher price when he expect
ed friends, and especially the cure
of Oherbourg, who was somewhat
Of an epicure. There 70 little said
about pastry except the "gateau des
.rois,,' SO essential to the festivities
Of Twelfth Night or Epiphany. The
desserts consisted of cheese, honey,
fresh and dried fruits, oranges and
erenades from the south, with q
great variety Of wines. Generally
the referenoe was given TO solid
food. Sometimes oxen and sheep
were slaughtered at home; some
times choice morsels were bought
at the town, and wonderfully cheap
they were. On one occasion the half
OF : calf and 3 pound Of candles are
purchased for s francs. Kids were
much. in request for special enter
tainments. Pork was then, as now,
q favorite article Of diet among the
peasants. One day, when going to
the chase, he rose at 4 O'Clock and
breakfasted on pork and behring's
himself. The fact speaks we'll for
his digestive powers-unless he had
reason ia, repent of the indulgence.
& Special luxnries were occasionally
provided at his table, as when the
servant Of . neighbor brought him
an Indian cock, and then he was 80
pleased that he gave the messenger
3 pourboire Of francs. This little
circumstance il not without interest,
as showing that the turkey was not
then unknown in France, and throw
ing doubt on the common tradition
that this bird was first introduced
there BY the Jesuits sand served at
the royal table of Charles TX, 1871.

hoard, as his chateau was near the
sea, and the rivers also furnished q

What Will Yon Do With The
Convictsl


One Of the amendments submit
ted to the voters Of this State TO 81
|acted upon at the general electlor
prohibits the leasing of thu
convicts Of the Louisiana State
Penitentiary after the expiration oil
the present lease. If this be adopt
ed the State will have thrown upon
its hand 1900 or more State prison
ers, and unless provision be made In
time for their maintenance more OF
es hardships will most assuredly
tall to the lot of these unfortunate
people. The prison, built some so
years ago, is no longer adapted to
their confinement unless every ad.
vanced idea of prison sanitation be
lost sight of, and even then there
are not anything like enough cells
to accommodate the large and steadi-
ly increasing number of criminals
being constantly sent into penal
servitude. Then there are but two
buildings fitted with cells (some $50
each) and one of these Is in a most
dilapldated condition. The main or
front cell room is IN first-class order,
in 80 far as locks, floors and masonry
are concerned, but woefully deficient
in sanitary requirements. The
Board of Control has had repairs
made to an extent attainable with
the small amount of money at its
command, but as the law only per-
mits that body to make repairs,
nothing has been done to preserve
unoccnpied portions of the prison.
What should be done within the
next six years, which We believe COW
ers the life of the lease, IS to gradu-
ally restore the property to its orlgi-
nal condition, build new cell rooms
more IN accordance with the spirit
of the age in which We live and with
the dictates Of humanity--in fact to
remodel the entire system. To do
this will require considerable out
lay of money, large proportion of
the yearly rental, which can only be
utilized after legislative authority
has been granted.
Under the system extant, that of |
the lessees to pay the sum
Of $50, 900 in advance, it is absolute
y beyond the resources of the Board |
10 have even slight repairs made I'M
ess the lessees feel inclined TO ad- |
vance sums of money and await its
