work they are cheerful They tell stories,
exchange gags with another while al
work and continually josh each other.
For instance, one hand will address an
other saying, Mr.. Barnum, please hand
me that pitchfork. The one addressed.
with due dignity will reply, with pleas
ure, Mr.. Robinson Another addressed
as Mr.. Ringing will make some other
request of Mr. Mckinley and so on.
They are a jolly set and life with circus
is not all frowns nor all laughs.
Mr.. F. 3. Wilson, an old time theatre
cal man, is the press agent for the show
with which he has been three seasons
and he is one of the most genial Of men.
He is a walking encyclopedia for the
show men and every one not only knows
him but does not fear TO approach him
with a favor which is seldom refused.
A large number Of people took advant-
age of the opportunity in seeing the show
people arrange their property for moving.
The work is. all done very rapidly and
was a surprise to many.

ANOTHER DUVAL PROPOSITION
Scheme Said to be TO Keep Campbell
on Official Picket.

The latest scheme in the Campber-Du-
val matter is reported to be a proposed
trick on the part Of the Democratic con-
Bressional committee. 1t is claimed that
the Democratic committee will try to get
the Populist central committee not TO
certify Campbells nomination to the sec
rotary of state, which would result in
Campbell being left off the official ballot
Campbelrs friends here do not expect
that anything of the kind viii happen,
and laugh at the proposition.

There is an epidemic of ''wry neck in

gray Ohio limestone and bright red brick stand
out sharply in comparison with their dingy
brownstone. As seen from the north it is also
made conspicuous because OF the background
formed by the trees Of stuyvesant Square
The erection Of this great hospital IS perhaps
the logical outcome Of the tremendous racial
changes which have been going on in that dis
trict Of the city during the last thirty or forty
years. The influx OF a vast foreign element
has altered what was once an exclusively resi-
denCe part Of the city 70 one occupied largely
by tenement dweuers. The increasing con-
gestion Of this kind Of population naturally
demanded hospitals. and the need OF a great
maternity hospital became most imperative The
story Of the founding Of the new Maternity
Hospital is well known to the readers of The
Tribune. An endowment by ]. Pierpont Morgan
originally Of 81 100000, made it possible TO tear
down the old quarters Of the hospital. which
had become wholly inadequate TO purchase ad-
ditfonal land and 20 erect a new building. Be
cause Of a rise in the price Of structural mate
rials, Mr Morgan subsequently gave S5O0OCO

There is no time Of full OF difficulties for
a woman as that OF middle age" said woman
yesterday. In youth she is pardoped for foilies'
and nothing much is expected Of her; in oid age she
is thought very wonderful II she keeps her faculties
and IS moderately agreeable. If she attains ex-
treme length Of days and possesses memory she
becomes a celebrity. But what are her chances
when middle life is reached? And what can she
do to avoid folly on the side and exceeding
drearfness on the other7
'It is not easy in the first place, TO persuade
the majority Of women that individually they
have reached this uncomfortable time OF LIE They
cling with fatal persstsHcy to the idea that they
still young. only to wake one day to the ghasty
truth that they are positively old, and have missed
the softening and toning down process that dis

to avoid growing old altogether II only one man

loudly proclaim itself And there is but way
Of achieving this desirable end. It is not TO
make youth ones sole stock in trade and 10 seek
TO renew the supply when one feels that 1t is slip
ping If 1t has not wholly slipped away.
One of the reasons Why attain middle life
so much mere gracefully than the other sex IS IN
doubredly they begin in good time to so occupy
themselves that when the rubicon Is actually passed
they have not the time notice it, do they offer
their friends such opportunity OF percetving 1t as
a woman invariably presents, Men have their
