RELIEF CORPS NEWS.
GleaningS from National Headquar-
terS---NOtes from the Departments.
HEADQ'Rs WoMAN's RELIEF CORPS,
AUXILIARY TO THE GAR,
DETROIT. MICH, Nav 9, 1SS

DEAR TRIBUNE: The National President
being absent in Tennessee and Kentucky, the
Secretary, in her place, would say that the
work of the Order is going gradually on.
Nearly every mail comes freightcd with cheer
ing news and .he newly-elected officers of the
various Departments have assumed their duties
with marked energy and interest
The urgent request of Lookout Post, Chatta-
nOogo, Tenn, that their Auxiliary Corps be in
stituted by the National President has been
complied with, and Corps No. 2 starts out under
most suspicious circumstances. During the past
week the word has come that No. 3 was also
being arranged for in the same city, Mrs.
Hampton prolonging her stay for that purpose
This is colored Corps, which year or more
ago thought to organize, but gave it up.
Chattanooga, thou fair city of Tennessee
may thy lights " so shine that others seeing thy
good work" will follow in thy footsteps, and
many Corps spring up throughout the State
where none now exist.
A Corps at Helena, Mont, is by this time
organized. Three other Posts from that Terri
tory have expressed a desire for "helpmeets,"
and have written for instructions. At Rowles-
burg, w. Va. Will be instituted the second Corps
of that State on the 14th of this month. Arkan-
saS IS also writing for information. Rhode
Island, that little State by the sea, now Pro-
visiOnal Department, desires to become regu-
| lar Department and steps therefor are being
taken 1t has a roll Of 272 members gain of
SO during the quarter just passed.
The reports for the first quarter Of 1883 are
nearly all in and show gratifying increase of
membership. Memorial Day Order has been
issued to all Departments and detached Corps,
and it is to be hoped that the sacredness of the
day may be duly observed by every Corps
throughout the Order. The question has been
asked a number of times if it was proper to
hold festivals upon Memorial Day. This day
has been set aDart in cOmmemOratiOn of those
who sacrificed their lives upon the altar of their
country, and should be just as cOnsecrated as
though we were observing the annual return
of the day of some dear friends death. Surely
we would not celebrate such with a festival.
1t is to be hoped that this years record may
bear nothing of that nature upon its pages, but
instead may fowers-beautiful flowers each
with a language of its own, be brought and
laid reverently and tenderly above the bosoms

Dear Captain Howe,
You had TO bow
Before the woman's fiat.
You did not run,
Though you'd no gun,
But you did almost cry at
Thought of tattcred hose,
And the tell-tale toes,
And all the sorrows
That lone man borrows
When his wife's away,
Though but for day;
Which seems like an age,
And makes home q cage,
Where life looks blue
And the world untrue.
Brave Captain Howe,
Take comfort now!
When your dear wife
To Bradford goes
Put on these hose,
That your home-life
May seem more glad
With feet well clad.
And, Captain Howe,
If you'll allow,
This worthy Corps
viii help you more,
If clothes well worn
And badly torn
To us you'll send,
Well be your friend
And them we'll mend.
Dear Captain Howe,
We make our bow,
And say good-by
With hopeful eye;
Now don't you cry,
For you've new hose,
To soothe your woes,
For each long day
Your Wife's away.

THE DOUBLE LYNCHING.
Interview with AN Officer from snake
RIVER.

In an interview Friday evening j. NJ.
Finley, constable at Snake river, Carbon
county, spoke freely of the atrocious
double lynching which occurred in that
locality some three months since. In the
first place he says that Adams and
Dutchie, the victims, were pretty bad
men. in fact thorough scoundrels, but
public sentiment against their cowardly
murder is not mitigated on this account.
They slaughtered game ruthlessly and
burned the property of a helpless old
man, but this did not warrant their muir
der, which, by the way, Finley declares is
not so brutal as has been reported. He
says hat their faces were not bruised at
all, that they were simply hanged. There
have been a number of sudden emigra
tons since the institution of a legal inves-
tigation and it looks as though the guilty
ones would escape. In fact there is no
possibility of the apprehension of the
lynckers unless one Of their number turns
states evidence. and this will hardly
occur.
Finley, who has been on an unsuccess-
full hunt after suspected lynchers, says
that THE LEADERS, account of the very
informal preliminary hearing of some of
the accused was correct in the main but
inaccurate in one or two particulars. For
instance, he denies that Justice Hughes

THE NEW LINE.
Particulars of the gurIIngton's
Route.

The assured Burlington Cheyenne
Denver route was the topic of discussion
In all quarters yesterday. The announce
mento of the building of the line by the
way, was made by THE LEADER in ad-
vance of all contemporaries.
The Burlington system Is reaching out.
No n realizes the ~vastness of the work
which the corporation has under way at
the present moment. 1t is an actual fact
that this company has more men engaged
in construction work to-day than it ever
had before. The Burlington is in the
midwest field as a rival to all corners.
1t was learned yesterday that the Chey-
enne-Denver route would have been com.
pleted last year but for the Inflated engi.
neers' strike. The president of the COM
oany took a personal interest in the mat
ter, and with other officials held q confer.
ence with business men Of Greeley. The
result of this meeting was a promise that
the road should annually haul 1000 car.
loads of potatoes from Greeley to the
Missouri river.
As stated yesterday. Cheyenne's south
ern trade is a heavy factor, and while the
Burlington will incidentally give Greeley
a direct Eastern outlet, it will capture a
great deal of Cheyenne and Denver north
and south traffic.

JOHN IRWIN PARDONED.
A Notorious Road Agent Granted
Executive Clemency.
He Was Sentenced for Lite and
Seven Years.
Damaging Evidence Against Iohn
Newman.
A Road Agent Pardoned.


An associated press telegram sent from
Washington says that john Irwin, who
was convicted at the February. 1879. term
of the second district court of Wyoming,
of mail robbery, and sentenced for life,
has had his sentence commuted by the
president to actual imprisonment of ten
years, making his term expire February
20, 1889. The communication is based on
his exceptionally excellent conduct during
the period he has already served. and
upon strong recommendations from in
huential persons in the territory.
Here is a remarkable case that will be
remembered by old timers. In January.
1879. Irwin was indicted on two cunts
by a grand jury in session at Laramie.
He was convicted of highway robbery and
of robbing the mails. For the first offense
he was sentenced to seven years in the
penitentiary. For the more grievous
crime of robbing the mail the court de-
creed that a life sentence should be I'M
posed.
When leaving the court for the
penitentiary Irwin facetiously remarked
that the powers might force him to serve
the life sentence. but "he'd be - if
he'd do time for that extra seven years"

terday celebrated the fftieth anniversary
of their wedding at their residence, No.
2344 Glenarm street. The event was
signalized by the gathering together of
their children and grandchildren to the
number of 26, the remainder Of the 80

Mr.. and Mrs. Hurlbut are known and

srill hale and hearty. Notwithstanding
their three-score years and ten. Time has

An Omaha paper says it is generally
understood that the Union Pacific will
inaugurate a change in its passenger train
service at an early date, but just what
this change will be is matter upon which
the officials decline to dilate to any great
extent. 1t is stated that the Union Pa
cihc will inaugurate faster train service on
all its branches at an early period in the
incoming year. The strong fight that is
being made for passenger traffic destined
to the Pacific coast by the various roads
reaching that point, it is said, has caused
the Union Pacific to repair its service in
order to hold its patronage.

Damaging Evidence.

Evidence against John Newman, de-
tanned at the county jail on the dual
charge OF cattle stealing and failing to
comply with the law governing the
inspection of hides, is accommodating.
Deputy Sheriff Moore visited Newman's
ranch on Horse creek Friday. and, in an
inspection of the premises, came upon a
rich find. In a plant in Newman's barn
were three hides. The cattle bearing
them had been stolen from A. d. Adam
son, the Swan Land and Cattle company
and another grower whose name could not
be learned.

MR.. RINER

Mr.. Thomas presented Mr.. Riner to the
convention. He prefaced his remarks by
stating that he had very little to say, and
then said that he was thankful for the
nomination, and if elected-and he be.
lieyed he would be if his friends would
help him out a little-he would continue
to administer the office of mayor in an
economical, but broad guage manner. He
repeated almost verbatim Mr.. Potter's
eulogy of himself, pointing with pride to
his record. He boosted of the water sys-
tenn and streets and said that the floating
Indebtedness of the city would disappear
with the year.
The nomination of Mr.. Riner was the
result of plans matured after weeks of
intriguing. County Clerk j. K. Jeffrey,
it is said, was the choice of the majority
of the delegates, and certainly of the
party, but the Young Mems Republican
club frowned upon his aspiration.
Considerable pressure is being brought
to bear to induce Mr.. Jeffrey to make an
independent race.
