Knights OT Honor.
The Transfer Of the Offices from Louis.
 Vills to St. Louis.


 wills to SG Louis.
 General Frank D. Sloat of New Haven, Ct., supreme dictator, and s. F. Nelson, supreme reporter of the Knights of Honor, arrived in St. Louis Wednesday night and with Joseph W. Branch, supreme treasurer, are making arrangements for the removal of the offices and headquarters of the Supreme lodge from Louisville to St Louis. The order will act under charter from the State of Missouri and yesterday the supreme officers were sending out copies of the charter and a cireu- lar explanatory of the difficulties connected with the removal to every lodge in the coun- try. When the Supreme lodge, which recently assembled in Chica- go, elected new set of supreme officers and ordered the removal of the offices to St. Louis, legal pro ceedings were insti tuted in the courts of Kentucky to enjoin the removal and to enjoiu the Peoples bank of Louisville from paying over money, ex- cept for death benefits, to anyone. The proceedings were successful. It was further decided by the court that the election of J. w. Branch as treasurer was illegal. as the meeting was held outside of the State of Kentucky. Mr. Sloat then appointed tenn porary treasurer in Kentucky to take charge of the money and papers of the order until the matter could be settled, but this also was overruled. It was then decided to cut loose entirely from the Kentucky charter, and in pursuance of this plan the Missouri charter was obtained.
 The action of Supreme Treasurer Robert J. Breckenridge and the Kentucky bank men is considered peculiar. The directors of the bank are on Breckenridge's bond, and he is interested in the institution, and the fight seems to be mainly to keep the money in the bank The amount of money in Kentucky amounts to one assessment only, and the of ficers prefer to sacrifice that than to be ruled by clique in that State. The office will be in the old Postofice building on Third and Olive streets.

The TrumbulI Mystery.
Reports Made by the Examiners on thu
 Subject.

Rsports Made by ths Examiners on the
 Subject.
 Coroner Holt reports relative to the hu- man remains found at Trumbull as follows: I went to the scene of excitement according to order, and found portion of human skeleton. It was lying just in the edge of wood, and had the appearance of having been handled recently, and I presume the report CTS and country people had been through it, yet could plainly see that the bones had been wrapped tightly in 8 newspaper and laid close 10 the roots of small tree. They had the appearance of what we call green" when wrapped in the paper. There could not have been flesh on them, but think the periosteum had, for there was shreds of flesh adhering to it. The clevicle, scapula aud humerus of one arm are still united by their fragments. The paper and fragments would indicate that they had not been there very long time but the weight of the bones speaks differently. The paper was New York religious paper, with Rev. - on it, but nothing more that I have been able to discover, excepting that the paper was dated July, 1877. It certainly is mystery how the bones came there and will undoubtedly remain so. I have the paper and bones at my ofice holding them subject to your order, thinking perhaps it was best thus to do until I hear from you Hoping to hear from you soon, 1 am truly yours
 Dr. Hill in his official capacity as medical examiner certifes that"said skeleton died in some unknown place, on some unknown day of an unknown year, from cause or causes unknown"
 Coroner Holt will make a full investiga- ton.

The neighbors conjecture that the bones are those of the lady. The gentleman, as near as recollected, 'looked like a minis D

The VaIue of Honorary Degrees.

In timely article in the July Century on academical degrees, especially honorary de- grees in the United States, ex-President Woolsey of Yale thus comments On the pres- ent system of conferring titles in this coun- try: 'We have also right to say that this distribution of honorary degrees is to great extent unmeaning. It fails of selecting the most worthy; it disappoints many, as is probable and gratifies few, and those few not, of course, the best fitted to fill the place it by no means selects the most learned and useful scholars, but rather those who have an artificial or undeseryed prominence The desire to obtain the honor is desire which no man should indulge, and yet the uncer- tainty and unreasonableness of the rules of selection provoke such desire, especially in persons who have no good claims by which it cen be justified. If the honor of doctorate in theology is given to ministers of one de- nomination, it will in the end be given to those of another-not in order to encourage @ learned ministry, but owing in part to the sway of the spirit of equality and because in part it gives title which is as good as if the largest university had conferred it, well standing in the upper section of ones fel- low ministers. Perhaps, too, it may help him in getting 8 good parish. The social di 4tinction conferred on a man by an aca- demical honor, whether deserved or not, is not an inconsiderable motive for desiring and even seeking it, and the value of titles is perhaps nowhere more highly estimated than in a democratic country like ours. Thus the official title which attaches itself to person in a civil, military, judicial or politi- cal sphere is commonly given rather than the Christian name, not merely because it Is shorter to say colonel or major or MT. Smith, but also because it is supposed to afford pleasure to the person so addressed. It is owing to these causes that addresses by word of mouth. or on the covers of let ters, have gradually fallen down from their original honorary meaning, so as to be open to almost all men-such titles, we mean, as Esquire, Master or Mir and Honorable. In this widening of the use of titles they came to mean ct length little or nothing, and instead of distinctions are bestowed on all men. Who that adds the title of Esquire to name letter ever thinks of the aris- tocratic employment which it once denoted It is getting to be very much the same in gard to doctorates in theology. They carry with them no evidence of learning, but only certain indefinite superiority above others in the same sacred calling"

Judge Clifford.

Oscar s.. Clifford, the republican nomi.
nee for delegate to congress is a com
paratively young man, having been born
in Waterloo, N. u, in 1872. Like q
great many OF the leading men Of the
day his early life was spent on the farm,
that almost prerequisite for combined
physical and mental development. At
the age Of twelve his parents moved to
Illinois where in the winter the boy at
tended school helping on the farm dur
ing the In 1850 he enlisted AS
an infantryman in an Illinois regiment
and fought to the close of the war. At
the close Of the war he returned to Iii
nois, where. through his own exertions
he was enabled to better his education
and for several seasons after he taught
school in Boone county that state. In
1871 he arrived in Canton, this territory,
without even a carpet bag and he says
without a federal commission. lie was
not long in getting together some prop.
erty. lie started a general store but
SOON gave that up as not suited TO his
tastes and was elected a Justice of the
Peace, filing that Office for several terms
as also that Of Mayor Of Canton. OPP
rortunity offering itself Mr.. Clifford com.
menced the study of law i'm the Office OF
Mark w. BaxIey with whom, after he
was admitted to practice, he associated
as partner and they continued the prac-
-tice of law together up to the time OF
MIR. Baxley's death. Since that time
Mr.. Clifford has carried on the practice
alone. lie ia a married man and has
n son four years old. Favors division
ofthe territory on the 46th parallel and
South Dakota's admission as a state.
Mr.. Clifford is a staunch republican and
il is sincerely hoped that his duties i'm
congress will be pushed with force and
ability. Dakota wants to be admitted
either as IA whole or divided, and after
the close Of the present campaign it
seems there will be nothing in the way
to block her course in that direction.
With n W. swerving push and no lack
Of determination OH our delegates part,
we should go sweeping through this
winter.
