Troops Under Orders to Hxpsl Intruders-
A Foolish Invasioa.
PURCELL, I. T., Jan. G-The Oklahoma
invasion Is coming 10 Q climax and ex-
element Is intense. Springer City, Okla
homa, . town of about 1000 inhabitants, 10
under martial law. The mayor and city
treasurer have gone, and the United States
troops are ordering all citizens out. This
city is overrun with fugitives from the
'proni.ed land"
Late Thursday night the troops stationed
| in the Territory received orders to remove
all settlers who are now locating claims in
the vicinity of Oklahoma City, Purcell and
Springer. Reinforcements from Fort
Reno are expected to join troop B, United
States cavalry, near Oklahoma City, and
| move on the settlers in the morning.
As might be supposed those who have
gone into the Territory to take unlawful
possession Of claims are of the reckless
kind, and, therefore, trouble of serious
nature is apprehended at any moment. A
collision between the soldiers and invaders
Is hourly expected and there may be
bloodshed.
The invaders have acted very foolishly
in making their move at this time. The
Springer bill Is pending and even il they
were permitted to remain they would gain
no rights in the event of its passage.
They are evidently set of adventures
who do not understand the legal status of
the matter and will come to grief with only
their trouble for their pains. OF all the
raids into Oklahoma this latest one is the
most foolish and inexcusable.
GOVERNMENT PREPARATIONS.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-Tbe authorities
| at the War Department discredit the
rumors Of an attempted invasion CT Okla
homa by boomers" but say significantly
that preparation has been made to repulse
and punish all efforts in that direction.
Tho commanders of United States troops
located in and about Oklahoma are fully
instructed concerning the course to be
pursued, and are on the alert, although no
reports have been received at the War
Department indicating in the slightest
any incursion OF "boomers." The depart
ment officials say, however, that they
would be greatly relieved il Congress, at
the present session, would settle the Okla
homa issue, and either throw open the
lands to settlement and provide Terri
torial Government. or pass such laws as
would definitely determine the question
Of title. Troops are kept in the field at
great discomfort and expense and it is not
an agreeable duty to the army to be on
war footing against citizens and would be
settlers, endeavoring to assert rights which
the Government expressly denies and or
ders the military authorities to repel by
force of arms.

Abuse Of Police Powers.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. L-George McFadden,
the partner Of Prentice Tiller, the express
robber. was before Judge Noonan, to-day,
in a city appeal case. He was fined $3.50
by Judge Cady. for drawing a revolver on
Detectives McGrath and Counors when
they attempted to arrest crook named
Kelley in his saloon. Judge Noonan dis
charged McFadden, holding that he had
not resisted the officers in discharge Of
duty, but in q usurpation of power, and
that he was justified in protecting Reilley
from them. The officers did not want
Kelley for any crime and did not suspect
him Of any particular offense, but merely
wanted to arrest him on general principles.

dy Forsyth! The first time 1 saw him he
was being carried in blanket, smiling. but
desperately wounded, from the battlefield
Of Beverly Ford; the next time saw him he
had reported for duty on crutches rather
than be dropped from the rolls. In the last
year of the war, and for years afterward, he
was Sheridan's right-hand man for any
desperate enterprise on the field. His
Indian fight against almost hopeless odds
is perhaps the most famous on record. What
tempted him to the trouble he has made for
himself, his pretty young wife, and his
boy, no one who knows him can fathom.

there is any way of paying the money and

Mr.. Gladstone's musical opinions are

the first composer in the world; that
women who are little stout sing the
best; that 90 per cent. Of the spect atol 9

Rosina Vokes played all last week at
the Baldwin Theater to large and en-
thusiastic audiences. Her style of enter.
tainment is 80 old as to be new to the
majority Of theater-goers. Three short
comedies were played each evening last
week in San Francisco. The bill was A
Game of Cards, My Milliner's Bill and
The Rough Diamond. This week she
will do an entire change of bill, present
ing The Old Musician, The Circus Rider
and A P0ntomime Rehearsal.
Patti is not the only singer whom one
wants to see as we'll as hear when she
sings. To try to give an impression of
the cnarm of Kosina Vokes' singing
through photograph, for instance,
would be an impertinence. One must
watch the changing expressions of her
bright face, her graphic gestures, and all
her movements to appreciate the points
of what she is singing; and one really
cares less about the sound of her voice
than any other element of her singing.
For years it has been the pet ambition
of American actors and actresses to play
a season in England. Many have tried
it, but few have met with any great
financial success. Barrett, Booth, Lolita
and many others tried it, but returned
home much poorer than when they went
over the ocean. In striking contrast to
the support furnished our favorites on
the other side of the great frog pond, has
been our treatment of theirs when they
visited this country. Irving made
small fortune when here before
and is coming over after some
more American dollars. The Kendalls
have just opened an American tour in
New York, and have had houses crowded
to the doors. When Wilson Barrett left
at the termination Of his last tour the
announcement was made that it had
been financially disastrous, but he is over
here now playing in Boston, probably
seeking more of the same kind of dis
ast0r.
