the second place, it was Mr. Colder and

ROT! BED TI1I0 CONDUCTOR:
A gang of Maryland volunteers Fri
j day night robbed Conductor Keith Wray.
I of the Old Point division of the elee
i trie railway, of a package of tickets
valued at $4. Several men, who board?
ed the car at a late hour, gathered
around the conductor and began to lily
him with questions. Mr. Wray replied
politely, not noticing that another man
was slyly slipping his hand into the
pocket that contained the tickets.
Shortly afterward the soldiers left the
car and the conductor discovered his
lossJ Outrages like this have become
so common in the vicinity of Hampton
and Phoebus that the people are pray?
ing that the Maryland men may be
speedily removed from Old Point. There
are many men in the regiment who are
highly esteemed and it is deeply re?
gretted that the conduct of several of
the soldiers has been so reprehensible
as to give the volunteers a bad name.
a popular soldier dead.
a death which caused sadness in
every company of the First Maryland
regiment occurred at the Fort Monroe
hospital Friday night. It -was that of
Commissary Sorgt. Harry Hay wood, a
member of Company H, who was taken
siek with typhoid fever two weeks ago.
Sergeant Haywood was one of the
strongest men in the regiment and
hence when he gave up and was taken
to the hospital his comrades smilingly
said that he woulTl ho at his post of
duty again in a few days.
But instead of improving Sergeant
Haywood rapidly grew worse, becom?
ing so ill that his life was despaired
of several days ago.
Mr. Haywood was a Baltimorean. His
family is one fit" the best known in the
city. For many years-he was a mem?
ber of the National Guard of Maryland
ami was distinguished throughout the
state for ids soldierly qualities und
thorough knowledge of military tac?

A STRANGE NERVOUS DISEASE.
Mali-Mali. Which Afflicts the Natives of
the Philippines.
Among the natives of the Philippines,
according to the correspondent of the
Medical News. New York, "there is oc?
casionally found a peculiar nervous dis?
ease called mali-mali. the victims of
which seem to be impelled by an uncon?
trollable impulse to imitate the move?
ments of any one they see before them.
Sometime the disease will lie dormant
while the victim goes Quietly about Iiis
work, but if frightened or excited :n
any way he will immediately begin to
imitate every motion of any person who
attracts his attention. If a person suf?
fering from this disease becomes angry,
he shrieks and raves like a maniac, at
the same time continuing his mimiclng
performances. Old women are the mos
common victims of "mali-mali, though
men are sometimes attacked. Some
people believe that the imitation mania,
as it is sometimes called, is always as?
sumed, and that the pretended victim
can control their antics if they try. as
they are often attacked in the presence
of Europeans from whom they hope to
obtain alms: but there is no doubt that
the symptoms of the disease are gene?
rally real, and that such a disease ex?
ists is certain."
NOT ONE OF THE "PROFESH."
On. by Stuart Robson: It is always
customary to pass free into theatres
any person who is a member of th,
dramatic profession, says..the Pittsburg
Dispatch. Some years ago there was a
-large minstrel company touring the
country, and making a street parade in
.every town in which it performed, all
the members wearing high silk hats
which, as they were constantly,exposed
to the.weather, required a great deal
of attention to keep tliem in order,
thereby making it necessary that one
or two professional hat-ironers should
travel with the company.
One night, while playing in a Western
city. 1 was called to the stage door to
-ee a man who had Inquired for me.
?What can I do for you?" I asked.
"Do you pass the profession''" said
he
"Certainly." I replied, "what Compa?
ny are you playing with?"
"The Masl >don minstrels."
"What is the line of your business?"
"Hat-ironer."
That professional was not passed.
LOST THE SAIL.
Said an old clerk'to a young clerk in
a shoe store, according to Hide and
Leather: "See me sell this lady some
shoes." Lady: "I want a pair of gre en
shoes." Old Clerk: "Yes. madam:
here is a pair of such delicate shade
that you can almost detect the frag?
rance of the budding trees." Lady:
"How lovely! I will take two pairs."
(Departs.) Old clerk to new clerk: "See
that! Now here's a customer. Wait
upon her." "New Clerk: "What can I
do for you lady?" Lady: "I want a
pair of walking boots." New Clerk:
"Here is a lovely pair. You can al?
most smell the cow they were made
' from." Sale lost.
