ON THE FIGHT.

Detroit, Mich, had a tremendous
sensation on Decoration day on the
Campus Martius, all brought about by
the famous Catholic priest Reilly, who
was the orator of the day. The ac-
count says:
DIR. Reilly is the most promiGent
Catholic priest in Detroit, pastor
| of St. Patrick's church, and
known throughout the country as
treasurer of the Irish Land League of
America. A crowd of about 1 900 had
gathered TO hear his address. After
abiding TO the day DIR. Reilly spoke
of the fisheries trouble with Canada.
and electrified his hearers by decIar-
ing that the present government of
the United States did not know when
il was insulted. a great shout of APP
prevail went up from the crowd. Con
iinuing, DIR. Reilly intimated that
England always knew whom it could
insult with impunity. Another
shout He then remotely
alluded TO EugIand's attitude towards
the north during the war, and said /;
was a shame that the men who, twcE
ty-five years ago, drew rcvolvers or
go down into their boot-legs for bow
ie-knives if anybody said the United
States would he free country. now
hold the reins of government. Great
sensation He said it was the same
lot who had EnslAnd's sympathy and
covert support during the war that
now soght by quiet means To degrade
the nation which they had once in
open rebellion attempted to destroy.
A wild scene followed these re-
marks. The veterans who stood IN
ranks about the monument cheered
with one voice: thousands of citiZcHs
applauded: one man cried out:
ave didn't come to hear a political
speech"
al am glad the speaker dares tell the
TRUTH" yelled another man.
IL fought in the war;" shouted a
third. ''but don't like to see politics
dragged into an occasion like this"
There was commOtion in the crowd.
The first two individuals wanted To
clinch, but The bystandcrs interferci
and prevented fight. The greatest
excitement prevailed for time. but
finally the procession reformed aud
marched to the cemeteries. The mat
ter is the town talk tonight. There
were many prominent Democrats in
the crowd, but with few exception
they kept their opinions of the speak
cr's remarks TO themselves.

To the Editor OF the Eagle.
We have had splendid rain and
our farmers are ali feeling as though
they would as soon vote for the rail.
road bonds as not. Still there is good
deal of opposition to the bonds. A
meeting will be held at Mount Hope
school house tonight to discuss the
proposition of voting the bonds.
Frank Bellew will be there TO advo-
cate it; others will be there to oppose
| it.
Corn is not As far advanced as in
former years, but it never looked bet
ter and is clear of weeds, most of it
having been cultivated three times. |
think the recent rain will make con-
siderable oats where a few days ago it
was predicted there would not be
any.
Mr.. Russer was fooling with shot
gun some time ago when it was acci-
dentally discharged, the entire load
taking effect in Mrs. Russer's knee. in
flicting painful wound. Mrs. Rus
ser is getting along as well as could
be expected.
MuIvane will celebrate the Fourth
of July; Douglas will do likewise and
at Himbaugh's grove, On the Polecat,
half way between those points, will be
another celebration. There is no use
of farmers driving eight or ten miles
through heat and dust with their
wives and children when they can
have a better time at home.
First-An invitation will be extend,
ed TO all, aud especially the sunday
schools, which will given an oppor-
tunity to sing one or more songs
each.
Second-Good local speakers will be
secured who will talk about the Amer
can eagle.
Thirdly-There will be. fishing
party to catch all the fish that is
wanted, and handsome young ladies
to cook them.
In fine, there will be a celebration,
convention, picnic, fishing and prayer
meeting, all combined.

NO MANS LAND.

A correspondent of the Chicago In
ter Ocean, in writing of No Mans
| Land, saws: Il have been all over
Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Indiana, and
much of Illinois and Kansas, aGd in
Difference TO truth must say have
never seen SO fine and compact a body
of the farm land as in No Mans Land.
Ii is covered with buffalo grass OF the
very best quality. There is little or
no sand excepting along the bluffs of
the Beaver or North Canadian
river, and these are confined 10 the
eastern part. There is also some
sand along the river bottom adjoining
the Indian territory. Farther up the
bottoms are as fine lands as can be
found, and are from one to three miles
wide. There is not a particle of saline
ofilorescence on any of the highlands.
but in the bottoms of the eastern part
there is some. but not more than is
found on many streams in Kansas
Two-thirds of the bottom lands are of
the best grade. There are very few
cacti and yuccas TO be found in the
country-less than in all southern Kan
sss. The country is being rap
idly taken and will all be settled
upon in the near future. Cattlemen
who have occupied this magnificent
domain for years now spread false
reports in regard to il to keep the
settlers out, but it will all be taken
within a year. Several towns have
been laid out in it,
In view of the fact that the Okla
homo bill will pass both houses. this
description of the land. soon To be
known as the territory of OKLA
homa. together with portion
of the Indian Territory, will be of in
terest. That the country in that
region must be excellent for farming
purposes is evident from the tenacity
with which the boomers have chung 10
the hope of entering the territory.
As soon as this land is opened there
will be rush for the new territory of
hardy settlers. The settlement of
this strip will materially benefit Kan
sss, as the natural supply depot
from which these pioneers will
get their goods and the necessaries of
life until the crops come in. and after
that she offers good market for their
products. The settlement of the neu-
tral strip and the foundsion of Okla
homa territory will also serve as pro-
lection to the southern border OF our
state, the Increasing civilization driv-
ing the lawless classes and restless
savages south and west farther into
the Territory and Texas.

roo MODEST.

The Telegram is too modest by half.
1t expects that Winfield will continue
to be second to Wichita. Now we do
not expect any such thing. Wichita
probably has about double the popu-
lation of Winfield at present and will
continue to grow. In ten years it may
have nearly double ITS present popula-
ton, but We predict that Winfield will
overtake her in five years and lead her
fifty per cent. in ten years-Winfleld
Courier.
The Courier, it is safe to say, will
never collapse of inordina,e modesty.
Conceding that Winfield has ten thous-
and inhabitants today, if she reaches
Wlchita's present size in five years
she will have increased at the rate of
two thousand annually, which, we take
Il, would be very satisfying grow tn.
Upon the other hand if Wichita hut
holds, for the next five years, thu same
ratio of increase which she has i'm
proved for the three past years, Win
field to come up TO the mark made by
the Courier, that is, to lead Wichita
Afty per cent. at the expiration of five
years, would have to have
sixty-nine thousand people. Wichita
has now upwards of twenty thousand
people. Her increase for 1884, 1885
and 1856 has been about five thou
sand annually. At that rate five years
hence Wichita will have about forty
six thousand population. But Wich-
ita has but begun to grow, and five
thousand annually will hardly cover
the increase which three more trunk
lines Of railway will inevitably cause,
to say nothing Of other varied inter-
ests which, having been secured and
arranged for, will materialize in the
very near future, long enough before
the roads alluded 10 can be possibly
constructed. If, therefore, Winfield
holds or maintains the position as
signed her BY the Telegram Winfield
win be second to no other town in the
state. and its editor therefore was not
too modest. OF course we say '.ii,"

An experiment that may lead to very
important results was recently made in
England with n piece of steel containing
10 per cent OF manganese. The ordinary
magnetizing process OF "touching" with
magnets had no effect upon it, and when
placed beneath the poles Of n powerful
Ruhmkorff electric magnet, excited by
forty large tray Daniel cells, it only ex-
hibited n faint trace OF magnetism. The
quantity Of excitation was but one five
thousanth part as much as is exhibited
by some specimens Of steel that have
been similarly treated.
IL is well known that the tendency Of
metal to acquire magnetic properties I'M
der certain conditions has caused a world
OF trouble in the arts and considerable
loss Of life in navigation. The rate Of
timc-pieces on land and ocean and the
polarity Of the compass on shipboard are
at times altered to "a dangerous extent by
the influence of masses Of metal, and any
method hat can be devised for the pre-
vention OF this would 10 a real blessing.
II the construction Of our watches and
metal ships Of steel made as above noted
should abolish the danger 1t will prove
10 be one of the most valuable steps for
ward in the mechanic arts that have been
made in many years past.-Chicago

Perhaps the earliest form OF medical
superstition prevalent with primitive
man was the belief in the efficacy OF in
carnations in exercising disease-a prac-
tice closely akin TO or identical with
what is now known as shamanism, rs
practiced today by certain tribes Of the
aborigines of both North and South
America, Asia, Africa and Polynesia.
A graphic description of this form OF
medical practice among the Patagonians
and Fuegians is given by DIR. Hyades.
When one of these savages is taken ill
and death Is imminent Tor what, under
the circumstances, amounts to the same
thing, his relatives think that such is the
case). resort is had to n capital operation
at once-he is promptly strangled-a
heroic measure which relieves tie patient
OF his misery and the relatives of the ne
cessity of taking care of a non-producer.
When the illness is slight the services OF
a yakamoosh, or medicine man, Is
called in. This individual, who is always
n man of mature years, administers no
internal medicine, but Immediately COM
n n system Of massage or kneading
OF the muscles with his hands, accom-
panying the manual maneuvers with
frightful grimaces and contortion of the
visage, loud cries and chanting a series
of incoherent words.
After n time the yakamoosh puts his
o close TO the body of the patient
and inhales n long breath, which he i'm
mediately exhales into his own hands,
and rushing 10 the nearest fire pretends
to heave into the flames. The ministra-
ton Is brought to u close by cutting off n
lock of the patients hair and burning
1t. and renewed grimaces and ncanta-
tions.-Globe-D Democrat.

The associated press reports that yes
terday, in the house of representatives,
Mr., Hill, chairman OF the committee on
territories, called up aud the house passed
the senate bill to l%egalizc the election of
the territorial legislative assembly of Wyo-
ming" This would make it appear that
the Harrison bill has passed the house
without amendment, and will become a
law when signed by the president
Thus the bloody chasm will be bridged
over, and the lion and the lamb will lie
together. The highest legislative author
ity of the ladl has spoken, and all good
citizens will abide by the result.
THE LEADER has desired n different is
sue, favoring a new election and a session
Immediately thereafter, thus avoiding a
fifteen month interval between the cleo
ton and the meeting OF the legislature,
and detaching the election Of our legisla-
tors from the generally bad influences of
a general election. The arguments ad-
vanccd by The LEADER still hold good,
and we shall be pleased to sec the change
suggested by us adopted by the present
assembly. 1t will be apparent to all
reasonable men that such a change would
be OF benefit to all the people OF the ter
ritory, without regard to party.
A later dispatch from Washington an
nouncos that the senate has concurred in
the house amendment to the Harrison
bill, which amendment was announced in
Tue LEADER of Tuesday, Jan. 10, as fol.
lows.
The house committee on territories to-
day took up the senate bill to legalizc the
e%le,tion of the territorial Legislature of
Wyoming. aud amended it by striking out
the provision authorizing the Legislature
TO apportion the territory into council and
representative districts, and inserting a
clause constituting the governor, secretary
of the territory, and the president Of the
council a board of apportionment. They
are directed to meet in September next,
and %rcapportiou the members OF the u
ell and house of representatives on a ba-
sis of the voting population.

The parent oil insomnia or wakefulness
is in nine cases out of ten n dyspeptic
stomach. Good digestion gives sound
sleep, indigestion intecferes with it. The
brNin and stomach sympathize. One of
the prominent symptoms OF n weak state
of the gastric organs is a disturbance of
the great nerve entrepot, the brain. In
vigonte the stomach and you restore
equilibrium To the great center. A most
reliable medicine for the purpose is Hostel
ter Stomach Bitters, which is far prefer
able I o mineral sedatives and powerful
narcotics, which, though they may for a
time exert a sopori6c influence upon the
brain, soon cease to act, and invariably
injure the tone Of the stomach. The bit
tens, on the contrary, restore activity 10
the operations of that all important organ,
and their bensfcient influence is reflected
in sound sleep and n tranquil state Of the
nervous system, A wholesome impetus
is likewise given TO the action Of the
liver and bowels by its use.
