a Song of Ecstasy.
john Burroughs, in the Century.

john Burroughs. in the Century.
very interesting feature of our bird
Songs is the wirg-song. or song Of ecstasy.
1t is not the gift of many OF our birds. IN
deed, less than q dozen species are known
to me as ever singing on the wing. 1t seems
to spring from more intense excitement and
self-abandonment than the ordinary song
delivered from the perch. When the bird S
Joy reaches the point of rapture it is lit
orally carried off its feet. and up it goes into
the air, pouring out it's song as rocket
pours its sparks. The skylark and the bobo-
link habitualIv do this. but a few others
OF our birds do it only on occasions. Last
summer, up in the Catskills. | added an
other name 10 my list of esctatic singers
that of the Nesper sparrow. Several times
/ heard a new song in the air and caught
q glimpse of the bird as it dropped back 10
the earth My attention would be attracted
by a succession of hurried chirping notes,

Washington Compared to Hannibal.

0JtI1IlUI INUUt5II III oLI IJIICI'
With a beaten and defeated army operat-
ing against overwhelming Odds he had in
flcted upon the enemy two severe defeats
No greater feat can be performed in war
than this. That which puts Hannibal at
the head of all great commanders was that
he won his astonishing victories under the
same general conditions. There was one
great military genius in Europe when Wash
ington was lighting this short campaign in
New Jersey--Frederick of Prussia. Looking
over the accounts of the Trenton and
Princeton battles he is reported to have said
that 1t was the greatest campaign of the
century. The small numbers engaged did
not blind the victor of Rossbach and Leu
then. He did not mean that the campaign
was great from the nuqoer or men involved
conception, and as an illustration of the
highest skill in the art of war under the
most adverse conditions.

followed by brief burst of song. then by
the vanishing form of the bird. One day
rising to its climax in the air, and identified
it as the vesper sparrow. The burst of
song that crowned the upward flight of
seventy-five or one hundred feet was brief,
but it was brilliant and striking. and en-
tirely unlike the leisurely chant of the bird
while upon the ground. 1t suggested a
lark but was less buzzing or humming. The
preliminary chirping notes, uttered faster
and faster as the bird mounted in the air,
were like the trail of sparks which a rocket
emits before it's grand burst of color at the
top of it's flight

sAvANNAH's BoYs AT TAMPA.
A Few of the Men IndispOSed as "A RE-
suit OF the Intense Heat.

Tampa, Fla, May 26.-The Second Geor-
gia Regiment is now getting down to
business. Strict orders are issued, and
they are obeyed to the letter.
The officers of the regiment take great
pride in the general department of their
men, and as soon as their uniforms arrive
they viii loom up in great shape. 1t Is
a sight worth seeing to see some of the
Savannah boys cooking, with sleeves rolled
up and corn sacks for aprons To-day is
the first time they have had beef since
they have been encamped here, and the
boys were glad to get a change.
A few have been confined to their tents
to-day, slightly indisposed, il Is presum-
ed, caused by too much outdoor exercise
and heat.
When any of the orders are disobeycd
the offenders are put in the guard and then
are worked on the camp streets This is
the hardest lot of soldier life. The streets
are lined with palmetto roots and the boys
are compelled to dig up these roots. Those
that have never experienced any Of the
difficult tasks pertaining to agricultural
pursuits look rather awkward with hoe
and ak, but they make progress with their
work.
The site selected for the camps of the
Georgia regiment is a picturesque one. A
cool breeze is blowing from the bay all the
time. The camp is laid out in regimental
order with bulletin boards. clocks and 9th
er essential necessities. A box for mail is
also placed at each captains tent where
the letters and papers for the boys are re.
ceived and distributed.
Most of the men have been putting in
their spare time writing letters to those
left behind them.
Religious services have not as yet been
held in camp at these headquarters, but
arrangements are being made by which
they will be one of the features in a few
days.
Tomorrow morning the Florida regi-
ment will be moved from its present quar-
ters in the Garrison to De Soto Park, close
to the Georgia boys There is a lot of
grumbling going on in the camp of the
Florida boys, who have just learned that
there is not enough money in the state
treasury which can be used for paying the
state militia for the time the companies
were in camp here under the direction of
the state. While some of the companies,
principally those rejected, have been paid,
the appropriation has been exhausted and
instead of receiving their pay, some of the
Florida boys find that they must go down
into their pockets for money with which
to pay for their rations received previous
to being mustered into the government
service.
