ANARCHIST ACTIVITY.

Nevada, Mo-, startled by the Discovery of a
Lodge of Enemies of Society.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 19.-The Globe Democrats
correspondent at Nevada. Mo-, says a paper
there has created something of a sensation by
the publication of the fact that for more than a
year a secret organization of Anarchists has
been in existence ia that city. This branch of
the order was instituted with headquarters at
Nevada and general headquarters at Chicago.
There arc fifteen charter members. and the so.
ciety now numbers fifty members in Nevada
and 40 members in the county outside the
city. The meetings are held at private houses
and the number Of those attending is curtailed
in order TO prevent the size Of the crowd at
tracing atteation. The names of those who
have enie red the order would be q startling
surprise. To the outside world the society Is
nameless. In the inner circle it is known as
the ''En Riot de ri rad on st. Lade.' The ritual
is written in cipher, and one or the first para
graphs, after tue oath, when translated, is:
And should | willfully break this oath | will
surrender my body to the just vengeance of my
comrades"
The object OF the organization is an e~oualizs-
ton OF condition.; and the attainment of the end,
and not the character Of the means. Is the chief
consideration. The ritual continues:
we work in secret as a matter of necessity.

UNHAPPY GOVERNMENT CLERKS.

Department Employees Who are Placed in
Decidedly Embarrassing Positions.
Special 20 the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Oct 10 Some of the clerks
who zane over into this from the last adminis-
fratioa, and who were. up to the election of 1884.
Recognized as ardent and true Republicans, are
in very embarrassing situations under the
present stress of politics. They have been de-
manded to MAKE contribution to the Democratic
campaign fund, and have also been given oppo--
tunitv 10 contribute 10 the fund for the Repub-
licans. From principle nearly all OF them are
Republicans, but they, of course. in the interest
of their positions. do not like to refuse to con-
tribute to maintaining the administration which
has retained them in their positions. Some of
them have m~ugwumped, and they would be
willing to contribute to the Democratic cam
paigu fund IL they were not afraid their as
sistance would become a matter of record, and,
in tue event Of the election of Harrison and
Morton. they would be removed. They believe
that they would be more offensive to the new
administration il, as Republicans, they contrib
uted TO the Democratic campaign fund at this
time. A few Of them have given money to both
parties. The position OF many or these men,
and women, too, Is very uncomfortable Just at
this time. Never have solicitations been made
ae often or anything like as persistently as dur
ing this campaign, when every avenue OF assess
ment has been closed IN, and the employees or
the government squeezed TO the fullest limit.

Big Lawsuit in Prospect.

CHICAGO. Oct IA local paper says: "The
omens portend that in the course of a very few
days there will be q big litigation set afoot be-
tween the United States Express Company and
the Chicago, Milwaukee e. st Paul Railroad
Company. Some time ago the road declared its
intention of transferring the business of its en-
tire system from the United States express to
the Adams Express Company. This has now
been done, aud the Adams express will begin to
handle ITS newly acquired territory on the 10Th
o. the coming month. But it appears that there
is, or will be. one year of the contract possessed
by the United States express unexpired when
the new incumbents begin their duties, and the
fact that the railway company ignores this I'M
expired term is the basis Of the action at law
that now threatens.S

virsinia's Educated Women.

Wsshington Special.
There is q queer ching about civilservice ex-
animation. The Virginia women average about
Is per cent. higher than the women of any State
in the Union. They are far in advance OF the
Massachusetts, women. Commissioner Lyman
says he can partly account for il by the fact that
she Virginia women who apply for government
places belong to classes that in other States are
sufficiently prosperous not to seek such employ
ment; but this hardly meets the case, as three
fourths Of tho women in the departments to-
day are of good social standing. Many of them
are widows and daughters of officers Nor does
. comparison Of the Virginia women with those
from other States show any perceptiols differ
snes in their average and social status. But so
marked IS their higher educational average that
what would be considered q high mark on the
roster Of most States is a very low one on the
roster Of Virginia. At q eivil-serviee examina-
zion held in Riehmond, a week or two ago. the
greater number OF women passed over 50, aud a
larger proportion Of these were in the Cos than
the Sos. This proportion is not kept up at al
among tie Virginia men.
