Oh, my darlin', my dariin',

Tho Oklahoma Invasion.


WICHITA. KAN, February 5.-The. "Paw-
nee Bill" invasion did not come mp to the
expectation of the leaders as planned. The
number was much reduced owing to the
recent passage by the house of the Oklahoma
bill. The party frightened away from Ar
kansas City came to Hunnewell at the
southern terminus of the Hunnewell branch
of the Santa Fe and were there joined by
other boomers, andstarted under the leader
ship of "Pawnee Bill" and "Oklahoma
Bill" for the territory. They are camped
on the Chicaska river, ten miles south of
Hunnewell.
The wagon train numbers over 100. There
are too quite q number of boys mounted
upon horses and ponies. They have somd
very good stock, are we'll supplied with
farming implements and seem well fitted
out for the journey. The leader of the
largest gang is Tom Wilson, one of the most
aggressive men in the expedition. He will
not listen to any persuasion to return from
either of the leaders, and says he will go to
other prominent people in the expedition
are the two Reads, from New Haven, Conn.,,
and Canadian named Harris.
number of people from Caldwell came
over to Hunnewell to endeavor to persuade
the boomers to give up the invasion. They
say that if they will come to Caldwell they
will assist them. Oklahoma Bill, who ia
looked upon as leader, says that he thinks
that be may put an end to the invasion
where it is. Some of the boomers will
move on to Oklahoma, and If not stopped
by the soldiers or police may reach that land.
but the major part will return to their homes.

More Money for PENSIONS.

WASHINGTON, d. c., February 1.-THE
commissioner Of pensions has informed the
secretary of the interior that there will be
deficiency in tho amount necessary for the
payment of pensions for the current fiscal
year over aud above existing appropriations
Of about 100000. He recommends that
congress be asked to appropriate the amount
to prevent the stoppage of the payment OF
pensions. The commissioner states that
from July l. 1883, to January 81. 1889. S4.642
pension certificates IF various kinds have
been issued, just q, 4S9 in excess of the issue
during the corresponding period OF last
year. He Gays that he knows no reason why
the same ratio of increase will not continue
during the ensuing three mouths OF the
present fiscal year. The average value Of
pensions upon the rolls is being increased
by the granting of applications for increased
pensions. He states that the increased dis
bursements for the present year results IN
fact, from the operations of the act OF con-
gress June z, 1885. granting arrears OF pen.
sions to widows of the war of 1861, and that
of August %, 1883, increasing the rate Tor
total and partial deafness. The amount
appropriated for army and navy pensions
during the current year is $50, $4,000.

saying that the federal council of Australia
