THE LITTLE GERMAN VILLAGE.
One Of the Chief Attractions at Con-
vention Hall

Those residents Of Washington who have
never visited Germany and those who are
contemplating a trip to the empire. which
has contributed so many residents to the
United States may get a general idea of
what German village looks like by spend
ing an evening in Deutschland at the car
nival and festival now In progress at Con-
vention Hail. The visitor on passing
through the doors feels that he has been
transported to another country, so COM
plete have been the arrangements to give
the uninitiated an idea Of q German vil-
lage.
1t would be a hard matter to enumerate
the different attractions which have been
provided, but one Of the chief attractions,
as stated, is the, German village, where re-
freshments and luncheon may be OBJ
tanned, while a short distance away is To-
Gated the dancing pavilion, which is a
strong favorite, not only with the young
folks but with the older generation as
wen. The mammoth Christmas tree on
the stage, presided over by Santa Claus, Is
a source of wonderment to the little ones,
who seem never to tire Of the old fellows
antics. There are numerous side shows as
well as free entertainments composed OF
refined vaudeville specialties, where one
may be amused.

TUESDAYS ELECTIONS.
Democrats Win in Many States Con.
sidered Republican.

Elections were held in several States
and in the city of New York on Tuesday
The results are as follows:
Mcclellan, Tammany's candidate fol
Mayor of New York, won by 10000 votes
German wins for the Democrats in
Maryland. The Republicans will poss.
IDLY elect the governor here, but the legis.
lature is Democratic.
In Rhode Island a Democratic govern.
or was elected.
The Republicans carried Massachusetts
and Ohio. Hanna carried everything be.
fore him badly defeating Tom Johnson
Pennsylvania also went Republican.
In Kentucky the Democrats were vic
torious al along the line, and Governor
Beckham is reelected by handsome
majority.
In Iowa, Colorado, and Nebraska the
Republicans elected their candidates. and
in San Francisco the union labor candid.
ate for Mayor, Schmitz, was elected.
In New Jersey the Republicans won
enough members of the legislature to
control both houses.
In Virginia large majority of the
general assembly elected are Democrats.
Taken all in all, the Democratic party
has reason to be proud of the results in
the several States. 1t puts the party in
fine fighting trim for 1904.

Circus Tries to BEAT" Greenwood.

Barnum and Baileys circus exhibited
in Greenwood last week, and tried to
beat the town out Of license of 5000 on
circuses by pitching their tents outside
of the incorporate limits. However, they
sold tickets, ballons, etc. on the streets,
and the Mayor didn't do thing but arrest
several of the officials of the show and
made them pay the 5000 before they were
released. The circus people have had a
good deal to say in the daily papers about
the harsh treatment they received and
talked of sueing the town for damages,
etc. They will hardly do this, however.
They simply got what they deserved.
They tried to bluff Greenwood, but got
pinched, and we are indeed glad that
they got the worst end Of the transaction.

BIRDS SING ON THE WING.
Their Notes Are. More Charming
When wae.Aled During Flight.

Their Notes Are More Charming
When WapAled During Flight.
The songs of all birds gain in beauty
when they are uttered on the wing.
They seem to be delivered with more
abandon and greater volume. The wa
ter thrush's first cousin, the oven bird.
furnishes a striking example Of this.
His ordinary song consists Of a repe-
tition Of the same note, hammered out
with q constant crescendo.
Very effective It is, too, as part OF
the general music Of the forest, though
lacking individual attractiveness on
account of the monotony Of its ttera-
ton. But when the bird rises above
the treetops and descends after the
fashion of the indigo bird to an accom-
paniment Of scattered notes be takes
far higher rank as performer.
Not always, however, does he'require
the exhilaration and inspiration Of an
aerial toboggan to cause him to aban-
don his plain chant for more ford
song. I have heard him sing the latter
perched on a grapevine not two feet
above the ground. And as If to show
that be did not reserve his superior
powers for special occasions he min
gled it with his plain chant and end.
ing with the song and sometimes re-
versing this order.
I love to see the oven bird on the
ground. There is such a ludicrous as
sumption Of dignity on his part as he
strides about the stage, never for a
moment forgetting himself 30 far as to
hop. There is the same even, meas
ured steadiness about his movements
that there is in his chant It is only
when he launches himself into the ef-
fervescing song that he forgets his
staid demeanor.-Lippincotts.

A REMARKABLE CASE.

One of the most remarkable cases of q
cold, deep-seated on the lungs, causing
pneumonia, is that Of Mrs. Gertrude E.
Fenner, Marion, Ind, who was entirely
cured by the use of One Minute Cough
Cure. She says: "The coughing and
straining so weakened me that ! ran down
in weight from 14S to 80 pounds. tried
a number of remedies to no avail until I
used One Minute Cough Cure. Four bot
ties of this wonderful remedy cured me
entirely of the cough, strengthened my
lungs and restored me to my normal
weight, health and strength" Sold by
II. F. Hoover.

The Face Of an Engine.

A writer in the London Saturday Re
view comments upon the fact that a
railway engine has a face and that the
face has an expression. Look at an
engine" says the writer, land you can
see that one looks noble-Hmply noble
in its strength; another, gigantic in
force, but not noble an expression Of
mere brute strength. Some engines
have a lofty, almost supercilious, ex-
preston; others almost foolish. Some
have an air Of SNUG stoutness. Then
there are engines that distinctly look
angry and others comparatively gentle.
What is the key to this physiognomy
Where is the seat Of expression? On
the whole, it seems to be the funnel"

The Wisdom Of Fools.

Folly, in the abstract, has been de-
nounced alike by Scripture and ancient
heather sages. If I wish to look at a
fool" says Seneca, n have not far to
look. I have only to look in mirror"
The Emperor Macmillan distinguished
the dullest Of his counselors by the title
Of the king Of fools. Once when he ad-
dressed a prosy adviser by this title the
gentleman neatly enough replied: II
wish with all my heart were king Of
fools. I should have q glorious king
dom and your imperial majesty would
be among my subjects"
