ing of the Conciave.


WAsPISGroS, Oct. 9.-At the session Of the
grand encampment this afternoon the Iowa
case came up. Past Grand Master James
M. Hopkins, of Pittsburg, Ia, chairman of
the committee on jurisprudence, brought in
"A report which recommended the adoption of
resolution which began by reciting
the passage of the resolution OF
three years ago that caused the trouble.
1t then pointed out that IL was the dirty
of the most eminent grand master to enforce
the terms set out in the resolution and that
the grand communicates of the state of Iowa
had been disloyal in not obeying the edct of
the most eminent grand master and were
censurable for this action, but the com
mittees were OF the opinion that the grand
commandcry and subordinate CON-
mandeIies of Iowa had been
punished sufficiently in being suspended
from intercourse with the Communicates of
other states and of the order generally
throughout the country and recommended
that the order interdicting all Templar inter
course with the grand commandery of Iowa
and the Knights Templar of the United
States be no longer considered IN force.
The recommendation of the COM
mittee found immediate favor with
the members of the grand encamp-
ment. A love feast soon prevailed on all
sides ami amid considerable enthusiasm,
the resolution of the committee was adopted
and the grand commandery of Iowa was
cordially welcomed back into full fellowship.
The committee on the next place of the meet
ing of the triennal conciave reported in
favor of Louisville, Ky. The report will be
voted uDon tomorrow afternoon,

writer:
CoLuMBus, o., Oct. 6-Friend Sandy: As
you wrote, Crooks has panned out gloriously,
and Buckenberger is Immensely tlckled over
tho deal. | will send you copy Of the State
journal containing an account of tue first
game in which he plays here next Wednes-
day with the Athletics, when hope TO size
him up. The day Crooks struck Columbus
j was in Cincinnati attending u special meet
ing of the American association, so
as yet l have not had the pleasure
Of seeing the Omaha phenom. He
has shown up so well, however, that every
appears to be of the right stuff. He will fnd
the American association pretty fast COM
pany, but l believe he will hold his own; AT
least hope SO, for the Columbus directors
paid good big money for him. And
to think that he could have been
signed last March for $500, instead
of 81, 750. just before that prize lusher Green
wood was purchased from Barnic Tor s9oo.

IL Frightened the Pretty McIican Gal,
nnh the Snifnr Fled


AS pretty young typewriter sat at
her desk near an Office window looking
out on Broad street, the other day, says
the Atlanta Constitution, working rap
idly with her nimble fingers, she felt
the consciousness OF strange eyes upon
her, and raised her eyes only to meet
those of Chinaman. Tho Chinaman
was gazing At her most iutently.
The young lady went on with her
work, thinking the strange little figure
would depart; but il moved not, neither
did ii speak for some minutes. After
gazing at her inteutly, the figure glided
no'seleSs into the Office, and said to one
of the clerks: "Melican gal muchee
likee Chinee.n
Tho "Melican gal" referred to flushed
with embarrassment and indignation.
She didn't fancy being likened TO those
ladies with small feet and queer faces
who disport themselves upon fans and
banners. The clerk started to say that
be could see no resemblance, but the
Celestial had departed as noiselessly as
he came in.
The next day and the next the yellow
man in blue clothes stood silently at the
window and gaaed at the pretty little
girl, who grew more and more nervous
at this dumb admiration.
One morning she found on her desk II
package uncannily interesting. IL was
wrapped in Chinese gilt cloth of
golden tissue embroidered in Chinese
figures. Removing this the girl discov-
cred a box of papier mache, wrought in
wondrous designs of beasts and and
birds, regular illustrated delirlum
tremens of box. Lifting the lid re-
vealed thin, white paper, with "Meli-
can glrl' written upon it. Beneath this
lay wealth OF sweets, nuts, candies
and dates, prepared in such n way as
only the Chinese can, all upside down
in "a surprising sort of way, with syrup
in balls that made you wonder how they
were fixed. and all sorts of conglomera-
tions going To make a sweet harmony.
The girl distrusted these enticing
things, which goes to prove thai she
was timld enough for a Chinese wife, if
fear could make her resist the seduc-
tive bon-bon, so enticing to the female
youth of America. But she said she
couldn't. and she wouldn't touch the
stuff. and so the other employees, first in
economy and presently i'll joy, ate the
whole boXf III.
The Chinaman and the boxes came
regularly for several days. The young
lady would not touch them, but her
comrades enjoyed the gifts too we'll to
doubt them.
The last visit was few days ago. He
entered the Office in a garb the mikado
might have envied, SO richly was it
embossed and embroidered with things
that swan and crawled and flew. In
his hand he held lighted yellow can
die that The Chinese used as an hour
glass. Placing it before the startled
girl at the typewriter, he said solemnly:
"Mally while lighJ burn
The girl, in mortal terror of being
espouscd by some compelling celestial
rite, snatched the candle and blew il
out; and then the Chinaman, showing
for the first time some human emotion,
left her presence with face one de-
gree more passionless and solemn. This
was the end of a Chinese courtship.
The girl has never seen him since.

CALM IN THE FACE OF DEATH.
How Grivet, the Frenchman, Escaped
the Gujllotiup,


A tradesman of Lyons, France, OF tho
name of Grivet, a man OF mild and sim
pie manners, was sentenced during the
French revolution, with u number of
others, to die next morning, says the
Philadelphia Press. Those who were
already in the cave pressed around the
newcomer to sympathize with and for
tify him. But Grivet had no need of
consolation. he was as calm as if he had
been in his own house. Come and sup
with us" said they, this is the last inn
in the journey of life; tomorrow we
shall arrive at our long home" Grivet
accepted the invitation and supped
heartily. DESTROYS to sleep as we'll. he
retired to the remostost corner of the
grave, and burying himself in his straw,
seemed not to bestow a thought on his
approaching fate.
! he morning arrived. The other
prisoners were tied together and led
away without Grivet's perceiving any
thing or being perceived. Fast asleep,
enveloped in his straw bed, he neither
saw nor was seen. The door of the cave
was locked, and when he awolie, awhile
after, he was in the utmost astonish-
ment to find himself in perfect solitude.
The day passed, and no new prisoners
were brought into the cave, the judges
did not sit for two days. Grivet re-
manned all this time in his solitude sub
sisting on some scattered provisions
which he found in the cave, and sleep
ing every night with the same tran
guilty as on the first. On the evening
of the fourth day the turnkey brought
iu Il new prisoner, and became as one
thunderstruck on seeing a man. or, ,as he
almost believed, spirit in the cave.
He called the sentinel, who instantly
appeared. Who are you?s' said he to
Grivet, land how came you here?"
Grivet answered that he had been there
four days. 'Doubtless," he added,
when my companions in misfortune
were led away to death 1 slept and
heard nothing, and no one thought to
awaken me. IL was my misfortune,
since all would now have been passed,
whereas | have now lived with the
prospect of death always before me, but
the misfortune now will undoubtedly be
repaired ahd | shall die.
Grivet was summoned before the
tribunal. He was interrogated anew.
1t was moment of lenienCy with The
judges, and he was set at liberty.

CARSON, Ia, Oct o. Especial to The BEE.
AS is the general custom, the farmers here
count their cattle every Sunday. a week
ago Sunday everything checked o. X, but
tho fact now develops that number of
farmers in counting last Sunday find they
are short from two to three of their best fat
steers. Where they are, or who got them, is
not known. 1t is supposed that somebody on
some night during the week passed through
and gathered up u cor load and shipped them
from some adjoining town. The unlucky
farmers feel pretty sore at having the profits
OF their stock-raisng taken in this manner.
