The National Drill and En
campment at Washington.
The National Drill and Encampment
which opens in Washington May 23rd,
continuing nntil tbe 30th, will be one of
tbe most interesting events that ever oc
curred in tbe history of America's militia.
Its inception was the outgrowth ot that
general desire to make the volunteer mili
tary ol the several States more effective,
and as a step in that direction this com
petitive contest was arranged, and valuable
prizes of cash, medals, and trophies, o B
ered as rewards for excellence in drill .
Washington was very appropriately select-
as tbe place, the citizens responded liber
ally, tbe War Department lent it aid, and
the success of tbe enterprise is assured be
yond any possibility of doubt. . Over thirty
ol tbe States and Territories will be repre
sented by military organizations and the
daily contests, embracing all the branches
of military service from tbe manual of arms
to brigsde drill, will be inteisely interest
ing to every one. The cash prizes amount
to $26,000. Tbe camp will be pitched on
the grounds surrounding the Washington J
Monument, and tbe drill ground will be
marked out on the campus between
,hei
Monument and the White House. Tbe ,
universal interest which will be felt in the !
arm in all parts of tbe country, and the !
excellent opportunity it will afford for vis
iting the National Capital at the most
beautiiul season of tbe year wi.l draw
thousands to Washington. The city noted
as the most beautiful capital of the world,
never appears to so good an advantage as
in tbe first blush ol spring, uor is there any
pleasanter time to visit the parks, gardens,
and public buildings than this. All the
public property is open to tbe inspection
of visitors. In order to accommodate vis
itors tbe Pennsylvania Railroad Compau y
wll sell excursion tickets, May 2 1st to 27th,
good to return until the 80tb, from all sta

ition special trains at special rates will
run on certain days from various sec
tions of the Pennsylvania system, the de
tails of which will be announced by posters
and published in tbe newspapers.
ThaCow.
I come from haunts ol hog and sheep,
Determined on a sally,
I leave the dull, provincial fa rm
And gallop down the valley.
I cross tbe fields to crush tbe corn
Just sprouting in the ridges,
Till "heyed" away, then thunder on
Through toll gates and over bridges.
Tbe farmers curse me as I pass,
In little sharps and trebles ;
Tbe boys my tender tlauks bombard
With brick-bats, clods and pebbles.
With many moo;' the folks I fret.
And, scorning metdows fallow,
I seek the shsven lawn, all set
With foliage-plant and mallow.
I scsre tbe women, and I make
Tbe children shake and shiver :
Yet candidate may come and go,
But I go on forever.
1 wind about, plunge in and out,
In crooked or clear sailing ;
I walk the stake and rider fence,
I leap the wooden paling.
And here and there a foamy flake
Upon me aa I travel,
More old cans bounding from my back,
More brick-bata, clubs, and gravel.
For man, of worthless things like these,
I And a lavish giver ;
Elections come, and elections go,
But 1 go on forever.
I lope, I paw, I bawl, I hook,
I eat in twenty swallows
A whole big garden, while I go
Where no policeman follows.
To curb my freedom voters And
Is but a vain endeavor ;
Elections come, elections go,
Bui I go on forever.

CniCAOO. stay Jo ine weekly crop
summary says that reports for the past
week show that while some localities were
favored by seasonable rains, others, and
the greater number are needing rain, and
that in its continued absence crops will
suffer seriously. Reports on the condition
of winter wheat continues lairly favorable,
Fourteen counties in Illinois report an av
erage condition of 90 per cent. In Ohio
the average condition or six counties
porting by percentages is 85 per eent. In
Michigan six counties report an average
condition or JV per cent. From seven
counties in Missouri is reported an average
condition of 10S per cent. In Kansas eight
counties report an average condition ol
70 per cent Reports from the winter
wheat districts m Wisconsin indicate a
condition of 75 to 8ii per cent. The spring
wheat growing territory gives the follow
ing figure t Ten Iowa counties report an
average condition of 90 per cent; from
Minnesota nine counties report the condi
tion fair to good ; seven counties in Dako
ta report a rull average condition and the
same is true of six counties reporting from
Nebraska, While the showing on the
whole is fairly good for the time these re
reports were forwarded, it remains a fact
that continued dry weather will materially
reduce these percentages of condition.

it, restore its original color, promote iM
rapid and vigorous growth, and impart
to it the lustre and freshness of youth.
I have used Ayer's Hair Vigor for a
long time, and am convinced of its
value. When I was 17 years ol age my
hair began to turn frray. I commenced
using the Vigor, and won surprwd at
the good effects it produ-ed. It not
only restored the color to my hair, but
so stimulated its growth, tliat I have
now more hair thau ever before.
