SOLDIERS LUGGAGE.

From the New York Commercial.
 An important general order will shortly appear from the war department. It Is of the greatest interest to army officers, since under it's provisions the amount of baggage to be transported at government expense is increased three-fold Quarter master General Humphrey, who has had much practical experience in his depart ment, is responsible for the change. and it it on his recommendation that the quan- >tity of army baggage to be carried with out cost to the owner, as specified in par agraph 1242 of the army regulations, will be as follows: For a major general. 1O,5OO pounds; brigadier general, S4OO pounds; field officer, 72O0 pounds; cap tain, coco pounds first lieutenant, 510O pounds; second lieutenant and veterinar- fans, 450O pounds; non-commissioned of ficer, 150O pounds" Heretofore excess of baggage has been transported by the owner at his own risk and whatever cost might be imposed upon it. Hereafter this excess will be transported by the government at the favorable rates which may, of course, be obtained by the war department and the actual cost of trans portation will be charged against the owner whose benefit by this arrange ment is derived from the special rates which the government obtains and which of course would not be available for the individual.

THE OUTLOOK FOR BUSINESS,

From the New Orleans Picayune.
 There never was a time since the civil war, and that Is about as far back as comparisons are worth anything, when the outlook for business at the opening of a season was better than 1t Is at the present moment. This city and section have experienced several successive sea- sons of good trade, and as a result have enjoyed reasonable degree of prosper ity. Money has become more plentiful than it used to be, and people are gener- ally more prosperous and disposed to be more enterprisng. The new season has opened up with prices for all our leading staples reasonably high, and with every prospect that good crops will be market ed. These good crops, sold at satisfac- tory prices, as now seems practically as- sured, will add to the prosperity of the masses throughout this and neighboring States, all of which will create a greatly increased demand for supplies of all sorts, and in particular a demand for luxuries, which are neglected in less prosperous times.

Democrats of Maryland.

The democratic convention of Maryland was an old-fashioned enthu- siastic body, and while 1t was solidly In favor of Arthur Pue German for President it did not, at his request, formally present his name. MT. Cor man is not fussy, and he believes that the office should to some extent at least seek the man. If he is, as many believe, the one man who can unite the party, inviting confidence and at- tracing independent voters, then he is at the service of the party he has served without defection of any sort all the years of his active life.
 The nominee of the Maryland dem- ocrats for governor is Edwin A. War field, whose popularity is as great as his integrity. He has long been un- alterably opposed to the use of money in elections or politics, except for purposes known of all men, and legit- innate beyond all question, such as the printing and distribution of ballots, and the like. Unlike other rich men, MT. Warfleld has heretofore refused to buy the nomination, and his adher- ence to principle has made him the most popular democrat in the state, and it is this that insured his nomina- tion. He neither bought the nomina- tion, nor will he buy any of the 60,000 negro voters in this state. He stands for purity at elections, and if he be elected he will do his utmost to have honest elections. His election on such an issue is foregone conclusion.
 The republican nominee for governor Is Stevenson A. Williams, a lawyer, and a man of good standing. He is handicapped by the cliques and quar- rels that have sprung up in his party, anu tHdb dTe CeuteT6u dDOuJ OeHdlOT McComas, who is candidate for re- election. No one seriously doubts the election of MT. Warfield, although he has to face the opposition of solid negro vote, but the state is in white hands and will remain there, thanks I to tha IIntirinp afforfc of Canator Cor. man.

From the Brooklyn Eagle

From the Brooklyn Eagle.
 That some English people believe Americans capable of any sort of freak ish notion under the guse of entertain ment Is attested by a paragraph In a re- cent issue of an English weekly. The writer, a woman, says that an Ameri- can friend tells here that "a new Yankee notion is a crazy social at which the idea is that everybody and everything should look and act as insanely as might be. The costumes, the women and men should be eccentricity personifed, and the food served should be arranged to match According to this chroncler at a recent crazy social' the meats were served in jelly molds, jam pots or dust pans; the vegetables in cake baskets, the blanc-mange in a fire shovel, the ice cream In stew pan, the wine glasses were filled with mustard the jelies trembled in a saucepan lid, the cream was in a pickle bottle, the sugar in the salt cellars and the salt in the sugar basins. The things which ought to have been roasted were boiled, and salt flavor ed food which Is usually sweet. Attempts were made to eat clear soup with dessert forks and ice cream with table knives.

With or Without Marks.

The Age-Herald prefers a free ballot, boCn in the all-essential and all-con- trolling primary and in the later formal election, but if a compromise become necessary, let the voting in a primary be free and untrammelled, while the voting in November is con- ducted under tho marking or identif- cation system.
 There would be no great amount of fraud in the primaries if the probate judge be requirel to file with the pri mary officers of precinct list of the qualified voters of that precinct. If the poll list of that precincts primary, to be returned and filed, shows any variation from the probate judges list, an investigation should follow. The democrats of a precinct, or rather the friends of the various aspirants, can be trusted to shut ..C all who enter tain other political faiths. Unless the pending bill provides for the filing by the probate judge before each primary of qualified electors, no safeguard against fraud will be possible, but when voting is connred to the probate judges list in a precinct the voting at least will be honest as a rule.
 It might be well to provide in the new bill that primary officers shall not serve successively. Service at one primary should suffice. This would shut out the professional expert very soon. Other safeguards may be needed the more the better, provided the ballot be left free, absolutely free at the all-controlling primary. A free ballot is the poor mans defense, and it should not be taken from him. He should not be compelled to vote sub ject to espionage on the part of the rich and strong.
 If. however, in primary voter de

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR

From the New York Press.
 The hardest thing in the world would be to make an engaged girl understand that everybody Is not dying with envy of her.
 Even when a girl gets to be grand mother 1t is next to impossible for her to convince herself that men aren't trying to firt with her.
 If men weren't afraid women would re- tell them or spoil them, they would be surprised to find how many good stories have never been told them
 The reason some women's hair changes to white so suddenly is that it has been that way for a long time, only nobody else was allowed to know 1t.
 What we call an error of judgment in ourselves We call tomfoolery in every body else.
 A girl gets as excited over going on q honeymoon as a man does going to the races.
 It is simply astonishing how uncom- fortable a hammock can be unless a girl will get in it with you.
 Nobody can be as sorry for another as the proud mother of one boy for the proud mother of another.
 A woman who knows how to make good bread can lack a lot of brains and her family will never miss them

Extra Session in November.

Neither the Aldrich nor the Fowler schemes have been well received by the people, and on this account an Oc- tober extra session has been aban- doned. Secretary Shaw proposes to dis purse to favored banks forty millions of dollars, and this unauthorized and really unjustified distribution of public moneys is depended upon to tide the republican party over the fall elec- tions.
 An extra session is to be called on November g, to consider the reciproc- ity treaty with Cuba, which is, if pos sible, to be ratified by December 1, The true blue Dingleyites will oppose the reciprocity treaty, and as action by the house is also necessary there may be a considerable fight. All those who claim the tariff is too sacred to be touched in any form or under any disguise will rally to the encounter, and Cuban reciprocity will fare well indeed if it becomes fact by Decem- Der 1.
 The calling of an extra session will somewhat interfere with the plans of several congressman, especially in Ohio, Iowa, Kentucky and Maryland, where hot canvasses will be in prog ress almost up to the day when con gress is convened In New York city, too, very interesting election will be held, involving the control of the Empire state year later. The Cuban issue will almost necessarily involve the tariff, and the republicans were not willing to convene congress until after the November elections had been held. The tariff cannot be brought up in the house where the speaker is autocrat of all he surveys, but in the senate the subject cannot be kept down altogether. Cuban reef procity will lead to tariff discussion, but in the end it will go through un- der administration pressure on it's own merits. which are considerable.

A Yarn or Two.

q have always thought there was something wrong with the expression, No more sense than a bedbug,' " said law yer. But a recent experience proved it to me,
 q was stopping at q place which had the reputation of having greater num- Der of the pestiferous little insects than any other hotel in the country. Before I went to bed I got a box of snuff and sprinlxled it so as to form a ring around the part of the bed I was going to oc- cupy. When I turned in, it seemed for time that the bugs were stalled and that l was not to be bothered.
 "In a few minutes, however, I felt something drop on my face and investi- gation disclosed the fact that those en- tomological wonders had crawled up the wall and over on the ceiling to point directly above me and were dropping down on the inside of the ring I had made"
 Another lawyer said he could testify that they were among the smartest of all insects

When I go to a place it has always seemed that all that were in the house made for my bed. had often wondered at it until the oth- CT day. l walked into hotel and reg istered and glancing at the register a mo- ment later I saw one of these little crea- lures of mischief perched up on the book watching to see what room the clerk was going to give me-"
