The oklahoma Boom" when
it 1 3 leader, Capt. Payne, by death,
did not loose its impetus. Other
leaders have promptly taken his place.
Capt. Couch, southern Kansan, is
recognized as the new head of the
movement. A correspondent OF the
Glo6s, Democrat recently penetrated to
their camp and interviewed him. In his
report he says the boomers have been
wonderfully active during the last few
days in preparing to receive Gen.
Hatch. They are determined and
belligerent, and show all the symptoms
of fight. They have broode,i over this
matter and have become SO confused
over the bungles OF treaties, laws,
rulings by the Indian Department and
Land Office decisions that if their
heads should be muddled and tneir
brains crszed it would not be strange.
Smarter men than these poor, deluded
seekers OF homes in this wild country,
can not agree as to the status OF these
lands. "Why," said Capt. Couch, the
successor of Payne and the leader of the
colony, to Jour correspondent, "Judge
Foster, OF the United States Court for
Kansas, decided less than three
months ago that we committed no
crime by going onto these lands; that
the lands are Government lands, and
consequently not part OF the Indian
country. Why, then, should the
United States troops be used to drive
US in the dead of winter with our stary-
ing families, from these wild places,
where we seek to make homes2"
This Is the view of the colonists.
They are mere with the evident ap-
pearance of an intention to stay. They
have thrown up intIenchments, dug
rifle pits, and built sort Of fort or
block-house, and are prepared un-
doubtedIy to give Gen. Hatch quite a
warm reception. II has been the gen.
eral impression that they would not
fight, but the boo ners have been driv-
en- cut SO often without any legal ad-
judication of the case, with the appar-
ent determination OF the Government
not TO have the case judiclally deter
mined, until a few months ago trial
was forced and Judge Foster decided
that the going upon the lands was not
a criminal act. This has greatly en-
boldened the boomers. and they now
think the action Of the troops is op-
pressive and tyrannical, and resistance
legal and as pralse=or,hY as the
'urse of the revolutionary fathers in
istiDg the red-coats at Boston. The

The janitors of the public buildings
in Washington celebrated the Fourth
SO faithfully that they did not raise the
flags in honor of the day. They ad-
hered very faithfully to the general
order to close the public buildings and
did not 60 near the structures. Some
men can be very literal in obcying an
order which gives them a holiday.

AT Salt Lake city the Mormons hung
the flags on the public buildings at half
mast on the Fourth of July. They say
it is not appropriate for them to cele-
brate s'day of freedom" when their
''best men are in the penitentiary." 1t
looks very much as though the Nor
mons would either have to behave them
selves or take refuge in ''the mountains
of Hepsidam' or some other foreign
country.

NOTES OF THE TIMES:

An invention has been brought out
in London which extracts the gold
from rock and dirt which has hitherto
been lost. It is claimed that what has
hitherto been thrown away at tie
mines, after all the gold was supposed
to be extracted, can be taken and wash
ed over by the new process and made
to pay splendidly.

He Wore His Wife's Dress.

We were told last Thursday of 4
young man, now living in Pickens
county, who during the late war
donned his wife's dress, kept his face
cleanly shaved, and wore a big sun
bonnet in order to keep from being
conscripted and sent to the front. The
officers in search of available recruits
frequently rode up to bis house and
inquired of his wife where her husband
was, and at that very moment he
could be seen working in the field in
female apparel. BY the time he had
worn out seven of his wife's dresses he
became tired Of masquerading and
enlisted and made good soldier. He
now has a large family and is a highly
respected citizen. =

THE death of Mr.. Seth L. Phelps,
late United States minister to Peru,
is remarked on as a singular circum-
stance, because his predecessor Gener-
al S. A. Hurlbut, of Illinois, also died
in Lima just as he was about to be sue
ceeded in Office The death of Gener-
ais Hurlbut and Fitzpatrick so nearly at
the same time, just after all the Chilli
Peru complications and correspondence,
was one of the most singular incidents
of our late diplomatic history in South
America.
