A Pointer for The Colorsd People,

The Tanner-Hertz crowd has again
shown its intense attachment for
the colored people. The gov
ernor is prosecuting Mai. John &.
Buekner. of the Ninth battalion l. N.
e., on charges OF characterization
and conduct unbecoming an officer.
Maj. Buclncr is one of the leading
representative republicans Of the
state. but he has fallen q victim to
machine wrath because OF his indie.
pendent conduct in the Legislature of
which he is member. For This he
is to be disciplined by Gov. Tanner,
who, by virtue Of his office, is com
mander-in-chief of the state militia.
Hence the court martial now in prog
ress. Tho governor had previously
passed upon Buckner's case and hsd
nearly signed his name to an order
summsrily dismissing the colored
commander from the national guard
because Buckner had publicly criti.
cised his superiors for furnishing the
Ninth battalion with railroad coaches
for transportation from Springfield
to Chicago that did not come up TO

1t is believed that no practical attempts

volcanic regions, where quite high tenn

tr;ct fatty and e9uivocally refused
to be whipped into line for the ma.

his part. but led s--beIt from the

to the toga that Gen. Palmer was
laying down. Buckner stood by
Madden, ard when Madden was out

The Eternal Womanly In the Rough Girls
of New York.
In the girls Of the rougher tenement
house districts the eternal womanly
wears such a disguise of the eternal
gamin that it cannot always be recog.
nized. Their pertness and sauciness are
only sharpened by their precocity and
their tomboy habits of street Arabia.
A reporter recently had occasion to visit
lower Washington street to ascertain
the facts regarding the murder of a boy
down there. He was obtaining his in
formation from the boys of the neigh
borhood, who might have been play
mates of the dead youth. A circle of
them, together with three or four girls
of ] 8 or Is years, was gathered around
him.
A big, hulking youth about 20 years
old arrogated 10 himself the place of
spokesman. He was evidently the ty4
rant, the bully Of the street, a young
bill the Brute" who had not yet ac-
quired "a wife to beat and was conse-
quently an object of great interest to
these misses, whose skirts had not vet
grown down to their ankles. With his
big, harsh voice he silenced every inter
ruption of his tale, saying:
"Shut up there! Pm tellin this yarn. /"
OF course this adjuration, which
forms part of the ordinary courtesy of
the neighborhood, did not quiet the
girls. They chaffed him and the re port
er and giggled until at last the speaker
said to the reporter:
Don't mind them. They're no
count. They're nothin but girls

Because for these many months, -
replied Mrs. Burnett, who is consider
