a Startling Alleged Discovery Concerning
the "Plumed Knight''-Two Circles in the
Organization.
ELNIRA, n. Y, September THE
Gazette this afternoon publishes two col
umns and half exposing the Order Of
Plumed Knights. 1t says that from careful
investigation by its reporters it has been as
certained that the order is simply revival
of the old Know-Nothings, but that many
even of the Plumed knights themselves do
not know this, as the body Is composed Of
two degrees or cicles an inner and an outer
circle. The outer circle is a mere political
club, to which foreigners are admitted, and
is kept up mainly as blind to hide the real
object of the order. The inner circle is
composed entirely of Americans who favor
Know-Nothingism.
The oath administered to candidates Of
the outer circle merely pledges those who
take it to work for Blaine and Logan. The
oath Of initiation to the inner circle is ma.
terially different and is an abbreviated form
of the old Know-Nothing law. 1t IS as fol
lows:
The Oath.
You, of your own free will and accord, in
presence of these witnesses, do solemEly
promise and swear that you will not make
known to any person any of the signs, mys-
teries, secrets or members of this order;
that you will support James G. Blaine, of
Maine, for President Of the United States,
and John A. Logan, of Illinois, for Vice
President Of the United States, in the
coming contest and election, and that you
viii use every means to have them elected
no matter to what end you may be COMPEL
ed to resort, that you will use every en-
deavor to PerPetuate the power Of the grand
old Republican party, and that you will not
vote for any man for any Office unless he is
IN American-born citizen in favor Of Amer
ican born citizens ruling America. Do you
so solemnly swear?'

ID. w. Hastings of shellbOurne
Blows His Rrains Out.

D. W. Hastings committed suicide at
ShellbOurne Thursday forenoon, by shoot
ing himself through the head with apistol.
No one was present when the deed was
committed, though ii is known to have
been done between s and II o'clock in the
forenoon. His breakfast was carried him
ct the former hour. and he was then all
right, only complaining Of being fatigued.
Az O'Clock, when a messenger went from
Mr.. Burke's with his lunch, he was hor-
rOr-stricken TO find him a corpse, welter-
ing in his blood. Mr.. Hastings was an
old pioneer in this State, having in the
early days conducted a large business in
Virginia, as a partner OF the firm
Of Hastings & Hastings. He was
also Recorder of Esmeralds county
several terms. He was a native Of
Massachusetts,. Justice Stearns went out
Friday night to hold an inquest. The
Coroner's jury after hearing all the evil
dence, which, in substance, corresponds
with the foregoing account, rendered the
following verdict:
We found the deceased lying on his back
IN his " room, and u Smith Il Wesson
revolver lying at his right foot, with one
chamber empty. We found a wound in
each side Of his head, apparently caused by
. pistol bullet entering his right temple
and passing through his head and coming
out above his left ear, and we are of the
opinion that his death was caused by a
pistol shot fired by his own hand. All Of
which we duly certify to by this inquisi-
uon in writing by us signed this 10th day
