New ORLEANS, May 31.-Early yes
terday morning, the New Orleans
a1tnaes says, the niger boiler of the
steamboat. St. Mary's, Captain, Good
win, exploded with a large report. and
tore its way out of the steamboat
The boiler was used to run the small
engine of thevessel for assisting the
discharge of freights about the decks.
Itappears that the boiler is tubular,
containing seven fues, and that pre-
vlousstos the explosion 1T had been
filled with water to aid in cleansing
out the other and main boilers. Just
as 1t filled it exploded, making kind
ling wood ofit in its course. Peter
Seibold, first engineer, was badly
scalded on the back and arms; o. P.
Miller was slightly scalded, the strik-
ers receiving a trifing scratch.
Each of the fremen and
colored man were struck in
the head with billet of wood, and
were but slightly hurt. No other cas-
ualties are reported. The niger
boiler was blown out of the St.
Mary's, over the stern of the Leoni-
das, lying next to her, into the after
part of the ladies cabin of the Ruth,
entering at the top. lodging In che
Ruth 5 cabin, cracking and breaking
the joists Of the cabin floor. The
large chandelier in the ladies cabin
of the Ruth was destroyed. The
whole larboard side of the St. Mary's
was literally torn to shreds, the base
of the chimneys being torn, away.
Both fell. carying with them the lar
board boiler deck, and they lie now
wreck. The cause of the explosion
is mystery The cry of powder was
raised shortly after the, explosion, and
a general stampede took place.

ST. LOUIS, June 1.-The Dacotidn
of the 18th of May, published in Da-
cotah Territory, says that not a sim
gle depreciation has been committed
by Indians on the Upper Missouri,
since the opening of navigation. Sew
eral small parties have come down the
river in open boats from as high up as
Fort Scott, without molestation, and
small detachments of troops have
passed from fort to fort, undisturbed.
General Stanley passed up the river
with detachment of troops, about
two weeks ago. His headquarters
will be at Fort Sully Fort Rio will
be garrisoned by four companies Of
the same regiment, under Lieutenant
Colonel Otis. Major Rush will COM
mand at Fort Randall, and Colonel
Knox will continue at Fort Dacotah.
Two new posts are to be establish
ed in Dacotah, one on Big Cheyenne
River and another between that
stream and Fort Bartholomew.
There are now three regiments of
troops on the upper Missouri, which
are properly distributed, and are suf-
ficient to keep the Indians in com
plete subjection.
The steamer Norah, a mountain
boat, was snagged and sunk near De-
Sofa. Nothing was saved. Loss not
stated. The passengers took the Sill

went on.

A MASONIC FUNERAL.


In June, 1884, steamer wended its way
up the Mississippi. Twas in the gray and
early morning, and listessly the curling
smoke from the steam pipes hOated away
over the still, calm air. The noisy rumble
of the water wheels, plowlng through the
rapid current, grated harshly on the car of
| the sad hearts on board. for tho dark
messenger OF Death" hovered there. The
sunkan eye and hollow cheek told bur too
well of that insidions toe Cholera. And
the many little mounds scattered, along the
river bank, pointed TO the lone graves of
the western travellers, who sleep far from
home victims to that fealfu sconrge. No
loving hand to wipe the death damps from
their brow, or bear to their loved ones the
last sad tokens of a father undyiug love.
At This early day, comparatively few
steamers piled this mighty thoroughIare,
and the pioneers of the little town hailed
with joyful pleasure every one that neared
the landing. But CONSERVATION ssumed
the place OF Joy when it became known that
| four of the passengers were dead, awaiting
interment, and another dying. All were
to be left on shore litter was hastily
prepared to convey the dying man, aud
carefully they removed him to the only ho-
tel the little village Of La Crosse then
boasted. He was barely conscious, but a
powerful stimuant revived him, and rllly-
ing his sunkeD faculties, he asked if there
was member of the Masonic fraternity
present Fortunately the two attending
gentlemen and the physician all belong ed
to that Order. His dark eye flashed
with am intelligent aud thansful EXPIRE sion:
he family murmured, "Thank God, | shall
not die alone" and then in broken accents,
he told his mournlul story. How the
; mania" to visit the great West had taken
possession of him. and against the fond re-
monstIances of his devoted wife, he left n
beautiful home on the banks OF the Hud'.
son, aud two beautiful children. The tears
ran down his wasted cheek as he remem
beTed how long and pleadnply sue be-
sought him lot to leave her. telling him she
had presentmeut i'll would betido him !;
she could not be reconciled, and clung TO
his neck until the hour Of his departure, al
most heart-broken. She bade him adieu
