From the st. Louis Post Diepatch. ]

From the st. Louis Post Dispatch.1
A very serious condition of affairs
prevails in Oklahoma. Lieutenant Day,
III command of tbirty-nine troops, finds
himself confronted with some two hun
dred citizens who refuse to be removed
except by force. They even refuse to
be arrested, and when the soldiers up-
peared III line before them they pre-
pared to return the fire. Lieutenat
DAYS conduct in avoiding a collision
aud loss of life deserves to be approved.
This is not country in which laws are
enforced by volleys of musketry. The
Oklahoma boomers are undoubtedly
violating the law and should be remov-
ed, but they have not incurred the pen-
atty of death, and the brave officer, of
the army are not called on TO play the
part ofexecutioners. The government
will be to blame if any loss of life re-
suits from lnismanaging its police duty
i'll the Territory. 1t ought to know
that the men who go out to take pos
session of this land under the exisiti e
turous character. They belong to the
class who have always been found in
the advance guard of our pushing civil
ization. The attempt 20 remove two
hundred of them with force not one.
fifth of their number is all absurditv on
the face of it. Lieutenant Day asks
whether he shall open fire on the BOOM
ers if they refuse to surrender, or wait
for reinfOrcements. There ought not
to be any doubt of the answer. The
government has plenty OF troops availa-
bic to remove the offenders without
taking any risk of shedding blood

OUR ST. LOUIS LETTER.
ST. LOUIS, Jan. 5, l8e

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 5, 1885.
EDITOR INTELLrGENcER:-Ih heard an
interesting sermon yesterday morning
at DR.. Brooks church, on Washington
Avenue. The text was from James
4-14: "For what is your life" Ad-
verting to the uncertainty of life, the
preacher remarked, "That it was pain
full to him to hear people say, sto-mor-
row will do such and such a thing ,
because our lives are not our own, and
We know not what shall be on the
morrow. l once saw carved on the
oaken door of house, which was prob
ably four or five hundred years old
these words, If you tho ught you
would die IN a month, you would
weep; but knowing that you may die
in day, you laugh" The man who
wrote those words was a philosopher
and wise man.
Referring to the doctrine of spontane-
GUS evolution, he remarked that the
most eminent scientists of the present
day had renounced the theory, and one
o. them had declared in reference to it,
that there was no such thing as life
without antecedent life, and that much
as he would like to believe the contra
ry ioctline, there was not a shred OF
evidence to sustain it.
While was in France read letter
written by Prince Bismarck to young
man in Paris, which was published in
newspaper Of that city. The young
man had written to Bismarck asking
him what he thought of fame. Shortly
before the young manwrote this letter Of
inquiry Bismarck had visited Kissingen
for the purpose of taking the baths and
enjoying season of rest and relaxa.
ton. One morning while he was
there, crowd gathered around the
door to get a sight OF the great man
when he came forth to go to the Spa
When he made his appearance thu
crowd saluted him. The prince raised
his hat, and inciining his head courte
ously returned the sslutstion. just O.

iearfully molested; l believe there is
one caught cold land his vocal capacity
is still crippled. He does not talk any
more for he can't perform impossibili-
ties. One Of the above gentlemen has
been taking lessons (pugillstic mean) =,
but was unfortunately knocked out the
first round. He is still able to crow.
There are many claims on these half

to these and others ofthe neighborhood,
in allowing their quiet to be disturbed

A PLEASANT PARTY,

The masquerade given at the res
deuce of Mr.. G. NJ. Mountjoy, Thurs.
day evening, by the Young Ladies
Fancy Work Club to the young men of
Lexington, was most enjoyable affair
in every particular.
The company assembled was COM
posed of the best society of Lexington
and Kansas City; and most of them
appearing en- masque made the scene
one of oriental splendor. Many of the
Mosques were elegant in appearance
and marvellous in make up, some few
were grotesque and all were interest
ing.
After en- hol and half spent in
promenadtng and conversation supper
was announced, and the representa-
tives of every nation on earth walked
out to partake of the good things pre-
pared for them. We can talk some
times and write too, but please excuse
us from trying to describe that table !;
when we first entered the dining room
cakes, tropical fruits and confections
of every variety were there, and SO
were we. At one end of the table,
arranged in the form of half circle,
and composed of silver letters WAS
"Our Clnb," while just back of the
table, arranged as all arch, was the
greeting, IA Happy New Year" We
went, we saw, and we are glad of it,
and all we can say is that if the boys
do not have Happy New Year after
such promising Christmas event, it
will be their own fault, the girls have
set the example, now boys follow, and
with such leaders you may follow
where they lead and never ask ques-
ton.
After supper the company again re-
paired to the parlo-, and after listen

the Bates City society in regard to
challenge will be entertained and en-
couraged by them.

INSTALLATION.

EDITOR INTELLIGENCEE:- Last Mon
day was lively day with free mason's
installation in Aullville, which took
place at half past six o'clock at the
Baptist church. The evening was very |
unfavorably; raining, muddy and sleet-
ing, yet the large house was nearly |
filled with men and women, anxiously |
awaiting the arrival of the masonic pro-
cession. At the appointed hour they
marched into the church, their glittering
badges and aprons looked as bright as
if the evening had been clear. They
met at their ledge room and moved in
body to the church; they made fine
appearance, having in their ranks many
of the best citizens in the town and
surrounding country, beside many Wis
itors from sister lodges. all carrying or
waving emblems which we do not un-
derstand, as we are no free mason, one
of those emblems was Gods Holy
Bible. We wondered why the masons
carried or referred to the bible. If their
level, plumb, compass and square,
squared their walk, and they lived by
that holy book of books, they are far
ahead of any of the so-called churches
of Christ. If the bible is their emblem
for faith and practice by those lodges
God will bless and prosper their lodge,
for that bible says, "Blessed are they
that do the commandments of God"
The installing of the officers of the
Aullville lodge was by the Rev. w. 7.
Wood of the NJ. E. Church, South. The
installation was very impressive
throughout, with solemn prayer to
God. Rev. W. 7. Wood then deliver
dan eloquent discourse on free masion-
ary, which was deeply interesting
throughout, showing that the masonic
institution was a good and grand in
stitution, in benefiting their brother
mason, their widows and their child
rem, and the human family. The speak.
er ably prepared the ground of mason
ary sowed that good seed that when the
golden grain of masonry begins to
wave and ripen for the harvest you will
hear an angel crying with loud voice,
thrust in the sickle and reap the har-
vest. The future for masonry in this Sec
ton of the country has OF will be ad-
vanced by this installation and mastery
sermon that was delivered on that Oc-
cssion by the Rev. w. 7. Wood. AT
the close of this grand discourse the
chaplain of the Aullville lodge offered
up very appropriate prayer; they then
moved in body to their lodge, then to
Shackleford's where there was a fine
supper prepared for the occasion. AT
ter the free masons retired from the
dining room the multitude moved il
and did ample justice by showing thai
they were we'll and hearty, and hun.
cry at that. j. A.
