1880 ances.
The people Of q community in one
Of the remote counties Of Tennessee
became much concerned over the sud-
den appearance Of an old man. The
old fellow said that his name was
Potmeyer. His hair and whiskers
were long and almost white, but his
figure was erect and footsteps were
firm. The advances Of the neighbors
met with no encouraging response.
He seemedto care for nothing but to
sit among his old books; not a
large collection, surely, but old and
ripe. One day old Bill Spillers, who
could no longer rest under a chatting
load of curiosity, called on Potmey-
er. The old man invited him to be
seated.

replied. "Jest thought I'd dropo over

"No."
"Wall; what is 70 business in this

"Yas, but I've lived here all my life"

French Press on Boulanger.

PARIS, March 1S.-The conservative
journals declare General Boulanger's
speech at Tours last evening, will not
cause any modification in the attitude
of conservatives. Republican journals
reproach General Boulanger for over
lures made by him to the clergy in
his speech. The Republique FRANCHISE
says, the speech was an insult to the
republic, and demands that it be an
swered in some way other than by
treating it merely with contempt.

Washers Beware,

There are some fellows that ap-
pear to be gentlemen that want a
salutatory lesson in behavior" said a
well known citizen to a LIGHT re-
porter. "On Saturday night my wife
came to see me and brought the baby
with her. She had to wait in the
street for me few minutes and
during that time was spoken to in an
insulting way. 1 didn't see him and
don't know who he is or 1 would give
him practical lesson in good
manners but you can say that if L
catch him l will make it warm and
interesting for him." Complaints of
similar character are made from
other sources and Washers had better
look out or they may be badly treated.

Third Week of Executive Session.

WAsHINGTON, d. c., Senate, J
March 1S.-The third week of the So
called executive session of the senate
opened this morning with the vice
president in the chair. Resolutions re-
ferred to committee on contingent eX-
penses, authorizing committee on
woman's suffrage, and on additional
accommodations for the library to sit
during recess. Resolution heretofore
offered by Mr.. Gibson for the appoint
ment of select committee on rela-
tions with Mexico, and Central
America was taken up. Gibson dis
claimed utterly the suggestions
made by Senators Platt and
Morrill,, when the resolution
was last under discussion, i'm

prompted its being offered were ex-
pectations of the mover to be appoint
ed chairman, and the desire of enjoy
ing pleasant trip at government eX-
pense. He reminded the senate he had
originally offered as an amendment to
Mr.. Hoar's resolution for select COM
mittee on resolutions with Canada,
and that if it had been accepted no ad-
ditiOnal select committee would have
been required.

Soldiers and Indians After Boomers.


ST. LOUIS, Mo-, March 1S.-The
latest news from Oklahoma is that
many of the boomers instead of lea W
ing the country, as ordered by Lieu
tenant Carson, who is in command of
the United States soldiers, are taking
to the woods, and are concealing
themselves in camps, especially in
forests along the north fork of the
Canadian river. This has left at Okla
homa only those who are entitled to
remain, by reason of being employed
by the governm ent or by the railroad
company. Indian scouts are securing
the woods and thickets for these
cam ps, and the soldiers are securing
the country in every direc-
ton, and whenever the boomers
are found they are ordered to
leave and get over the line as
rapidly as possible. There has been
but little opposition to the soldiers,
but some boomers claim that since the
cessiOn of the country by the Creeks,
the land is public domain and that
the military have no right to drive
them from it.
