The Exodus to OkIahoma--ColonS
Swelling.


WICHITA, Kas., January 19.-To
Major Lille, "Pawnee Bill" last even
ing stated that the preliminaries for
the Oklahoma invasion were progress
ing favorably, and that he would
cross the line of territory by February
lst. Between 500 and 1000 people in
wagons and on horseback, will leave
this city on the 2sth, to be joined at
points along the line of march by the
others. 1t is expected the number will
be 5000 when the line of territory is
reached. Many who are not
members of the colony will
take advantage of the crowd
to get into Oklahoma; besides these
there are colonies from the east and
south. The rendezvous is not yet
made public. The old cattle trail in
to the territory from Caldwell, will be
taken by the invading party. This
trail is a public highway, about six
miles wide, and no one can be pre-
vented from traversing it. At Salt
Fork in the Territory, the party will
leave the trail, and strike into the
promised land of Oklahoma.

That Detective Canard.

New YORK, January 19.-The fol-
lowing letter relates to some state
ments made in the Herald article in
regard to an alleged conspiracy to
blow up a trans-At lantic street in
New York harbor, which was sent out
in these dispatches:
To Associated Press, NEW YORK:
GENTLEMEN: My attention has
been called to an article in the New
York Herald, in which it is stated
Inspector Fred Jarvis and Chief In
spector Shore, supt. of the criminal
Investigating department of Scotland
Yard, London, were in America in
the interest of the London Times, to
ferret out information about the
movements of Irish American con-
spirators: that Shore and Jarvis met
representatives of the Pinkertons in
Kansas City, that three of the Pinker-
tons have been at work for years IN
the Irish National Secret societies;
and who communicated directly with
the Scotland Yard that Manager
Bangs, city admiral, is an Irish ma
tionalisJ whom they caught in a
trap. 1 wish to positively contradict
the statements above referred to,
and if an Irish nationalist, or
any one else, has stated that Mr..
Bangs made such an admission, he
has stated what is not true. The Pia-
kertOn's national detective agency
has never obtained a particle of evil
dence against Mr.. Parnell, and has
never been requested to hunt up such
evidence by the London Times or the
British government. 1 know of my
own knowledge that Superintendent
Shore has not been in this country for
number of years. Inspector Fred
Jarvis is here in connection
with criminal matters. which have
no relation whatever to the
Irish affairs, and neither he nor Mr..
Shore have met any of our representa-
tives in Kansas City. The recent visit
of my. brother, William, and myself to
Kansas City, and Denver, was our
yearly business trip to our offices in
those cities. Inspector Andrews is I'M
known to us. Yours respectfully,
ROBERT B. PINKERTON,

THE LOCAL STAGE.
An Artistic Presentation Of THE
Fools REVENGE" by Mr..
Clarke

AS "Hamletn Mr.. Creston Clarke
delighted his audience at the opera
house Thursday night. AS "Bertuc-
clio" he surprised and charmed them
last night. This part was originally
brought out by his famous uncle, Ed
win Booth, who was the first Ber-
tuccio, but the great critics of the east
ern press have conceded that young
Clarke in this role, outshines that
peer of tragedy, III the role. Bertuccio
one of the few of his parts in which
he thus appears. The personality of
the actor is lost in creating the part,
but his melodious and passionate
voice is the same. Hamlet is nature
itself to Mr.. Clarke. Bertuccio is act
ing throughout. His versatility as an
actor is sOrely tried in the part yet he
depicts the old time court jester, with
his keen wit and idiotic grin, quite as
we'll as the loving, doting father, who
in revenge for the theft of his wife, as
sists the ducal roue in stealing the
thief's wife in turn, but who in reality
proves to be his own loved daughter
who has sought shelter from the
duke. His display of the various
passions that shake the human
breast, particularly the passion of
hate, and his gloating triumph over
his enemy, were grand, while his
transports of grief and rage were mag
nificent. AS "Bertuccio" Mr.. Clarke
is as good as in Hamlet" though the
requisites of the part call for entirely
different powers. This afternoon the
opera house is filled at matinee, Mr..
Clarke playing Claude Melnotte," in
the Lady Of Lyons" Tonight
"Richelieu' will be given, and tomor-
row night double bill poor Pill
coddy," farce, and the Merchant of
Venice" will be presented, closing
Mr.. Clarke's engagement. Those who
have not had an Opportunity of seeing
this rising tragedian, should not let
the opportunity slip by, as the LIGHT
can cOnscientlously recommend this
star and his company as being the
best they will see for many days to
come.

THE Ell Paso Herald comments as
follows upon the inertia of Texas in
inviting immigration:
"a heavy tide of immigration is
leaving the northwest to escape the
severe and costly winters and find
more genial ATTITUDES. Texas is not
getting her share of these industrious
people, and for the simple reason that
the proper efforts have not been made.
Without doing something we cannot
expect to compete with states like
Alabama and California that spend
mo 1ey like water to encourage new
Corners"
There is more truth than is credita--
BILE to Texas in this statement. This
state could secure nine-tenths of all
the winter immigration. into Califor-
mia and Alabama were her advan-
tages properly set forth.

THE Houston Post, in recent edi-
torial on the suffrage ground, takes
decided ground against any restric-
ton of the suffrage by educational or
property qualifications, and winds up
its remarks as follows:
1.-THE need of our time and country
is not to discriminate against the
masses or any part of them, but rather
to prevent determinations that are
made against them in favor of special
ly favored classes. No proposition
that the suffrage should be restricted
by requirements, educational or prop
erty, can find any majority for its sup
port. The election reform needed is
one that reforms forward, not back
ward"
This sentiment is not in accord with
the great body of democratic opinion
in the southern states which endorses
the Atlanta Constitutions view, viz:
that the colored vote must be sup
pressed where it outnumbers the
white vote. The advocates of property
and educational qualifications alike,
have depended upon the restriction
that they advocate to cut off so large
portion of the colored vote as to equal
ize the disproportion of which they
complain. Let that opening sentence
of the POSTS extract cited above, be-
come the rallying cry of the southern
democracy, and there will be
no more need of national
congress investigating Washington
county outrages. The republican
party by it's entire record stands COM
mitted to a ballot policy that shall
mot discriminate against the masses
or any part of them" Now, let the
democracy join hands with the repub-
lican party for the accomplishment OF
this end and the work so much to be
desired will be speedily accomplished.

THE Houston Herald notices re-
cent invention of a genius of that city
which would no doubt find a ready
sale in San Antonio, particularly if
the present municipal order continues
for the next two years. OF this in.
ven ton the Herald says:
"A Houston machineistisa at work on
conveyance which will travel in
mud much as boat does on water. 1t
will meet with a ready sale in Hous-
ton and will give the town Venice
like appearance as the gay mud scow
is rapidly speeded through our streets
by the gallant mud scower. Some
musical genius with poetical inclina-
lions will compose a song, which he
will call "a life on the oozy wave"
and will be sung by the aforemen-
toned mud scower.n
San Antonio will hail the advent of
one of these Houston Hansoms' with
true delight as real savior. What O.
pity there had not been fleet of them
at the Southern Pacific depot last
Thursday when the excursionists
were stranded in the ooze and could
not see the sights. Any port in
storm, and even a mud scow would be
a deliverance.
