an unusually large audience, the people
crowding inside the reservation and

The band. individually and collective

In the citizens of Washington, and those
who have attended the two concerts so
far have been eager to get a glimpse of
the little fellows. request was made
yesterday that the people who were in
side be made TO sit down in order to
give those less fortunate an opportunity
to see the band, but this was not heed
ed. and those on the outside of the rail-
ing were forced to content themselves
by listening to the music.
Times March Popular.
Mr.. White, leader of the band. pre-
pared an entertaining program and each
number was cordially received. The
two selections which proved the most
popular were The Washington Times
March," Mr.. Whites composition. and
a medley of patriotic airs. The former
was played by request from several diff
ferent sources. The boys have spe-
cial pride in the march, as II is dedi-
Gated to them. and they rendered ii yes
terday with much spirit.
Another number which seemed to meet
with much favor was Creole Bellies"
the popular coon melody. The refrain
in the piece was sung by the boys and
their sweet. natural voices came as an
other surprise to those in attendance
at the concert The boys sing we'll. and
1t was quite an innovation yesterday 10

PRESIDENT HUNTS AND

the party was taken into the park af-
ter the President and his companions

There were reasons for this precau-
tion. A large part OF the supplement

not deemed wise to incur the posi-
bilty OF any photograph being made of
the President In the costume in which
he entered the woods today. The clothes
were Senator Proctor's. The Senator
is a much larger man than the Presi-
dent, and the President was not alto
gether a dignified figure in them. Well
suited as they might have been for the
purpose OF a hunting trip. they would
not have looked well in pictorial week

The fence around the Corbin Park is
thirty-five miles long. so there was
plenty Of room for hunting. The boars
in the park are tremendous creatures.

One of them, a young thing. was penned
up in the barn on the estate for the
ron hunting members of the party to
look at.
Those at large in the park are very
seldom seen, because they are very shy
of visitors, and are as canny as deer in
avoiding hunters.

it was given cut today that the Presi-
dent will leave New York September
5, and will return September 10. He
will visit Wheeling, W. Va, September

HORRORS OF CONVICT

The Legislative Committee
Makes Startling Report.

AUSTIN, Tex. Aug. 29.-The commit
tee appointed by the last Legislature to
investigate the affairs of different State
departments and institutions made p,5-
lie their report today. 1t contains many
important recommendations. The COM
mittee spent several weeks investigat-

in their report on this branch of the
State government the following startling
statement is made:
1T is our conviction that the lease
system is disgrace to the State and
ought to be abolished As a rule the
life Of a convict is not as valuable in
the eyes Of sergeants and guards and
contractors. with a few exceptions, as
that OF dog. In evidence thereof we
find that the average lite OF a convict is
seven years. Convicts are shot down
upon the least provocation, and when

HALLOWEEN

Hallow' cen was observed in this
city last Friday night with all the
customary festivities. There were
many social gatherings among the
young folk and at all of them the old
superstitions, some Of them handed
down from Medieval times, were tried
to test the fate of the merrymakers
The girls saw their future husbands
by looking into mirrors and had the
years TO come foreshaduwed by for
tunes tellers; in fact, invoked all the
old tricks to reveal what futu-ity
had in store for them which had been
practiced by their ancestors since the
time when the memory of man runneth
not to the contrary. In addition to
the more formal social functions
large parties of young people enjoyed
themselves by promenading about the
streets. serenading friends and ~.
dulging in innocent pranks.
The ''kids" were up tn everything,
and as Hallow 'een comes but once
year the boys acted on the assumption
that they we're entitled by the inheri-
tance of an ancient custom to do al
most anything they wanted to in the
way of mischiefson that occasion.
To the youngsters the night of Oc-
tober 3lst is the time for the removal
of gates. and other species of prop
erty not chained down, and the doing
of any pranks that cause disturbance
to their'grave and reverend senior, "
structive and unholy pranks ''when
we We're children.
The tenacity with which the
American youth of today clinRs TO the
sports and social customes which their
forefathers brought with them from
Old England, aud later carried with
them TO all parts Of n continent from
New England, is one of the evidences
of the homegeneousneSs of the Anglo
Saxon race, which in turn has made
it tn. dominant factor in the civili-
zation of the world and the master OF
a univers al commerce.

NOTES AND COMMENTS

If every parent would do his or her
duty on Halloween the marshals
would be saved much trouble, and
some families would be saved some
discomfort and some disgrace. Why
should parents let their children run
wild on the street on Halloween or
on any other night.
What Canon needs most of all just
now is canning factory and evapo-
rator to handle lot of our cheap ap-
pies. Thousands of boxes of apples of
an inferior grade will go to waste
here this year because we have
nothing of this kind to handle them

Most men are better than we give
them credit for being.

Pick out the man you hate worst
of all and see how many friends he
has. Perhaps he has scue good
points you have never seen.

How long has it been since you did
a simple deed of absolutely unselfiish
kindness? Sometime try doing your
neighbor good turn without expect
ing something back for it.
When you hear an evil report of a
friend or acquaintance first deny it
and then forget it. When you hear a
good report compliment go and
tell the party interested.
The election is over. Aren't you
glad of it? We are. When his last
paper is out before an election a news

all over for short while at least.
