Evidences of Internal Irregular

permanently organized ''Sedalia
bachelors Sewing Circle" on the court
house steps, in the early part of the
week. it was decided that the regular
communications of the society should
be held on Saturday night as being
the evening most suitable. 1t was
thought that the date would be the
hest for the reason that the Lords Day
following would allow the needed re-
,cuperation from the necessarily ex-
haustive brain and physical concoml-
tants that were sure to be attendant.
In accordance with the de-
cision arrived at by the consulting
c0uncn, f--~:Innt CioueY called the
circle together last night and an
.uounced that hereafter the evening OF
the seventh day of the week would be
the accepted time when the elect OF
Sedalia's bachelors would come to-
gether in communion.
The club room parlors at the "Goat
House" were arranged IN order, an
air OF neatness pervading all. Two
more stools had been added to the
furniture during the week and Vice
President Baer now had an opportu-
nifty of occupying one portion OF the
apartments at one time which he
early awaited himself OF. =,
The president congratulated himself
that his box had been busted and
,I,,s;do Guard Van DyDe
felt grateful that be secured
the other stool. Promptly at 8
o'clock the Ratchet of the presiding
officer called the meeting to order. A
call of the roll by Secretary Gulon
showed that there was not an ab'
Sentee.
Previous to commencing The regu-
lar order of business. President Cloney
arose and said that one of the prime
features of the society would be fair
ness and Justice to all and under all
circumstances. He had daring the
week received a communication from
one of the candidates who had been
refused admission to the circle at the
last meeting on the ground of ineligl'
bility based on the supposition that be
entertained matrimonial aspirations.
The gentleman had denied in the
most positive manner in his letter
that such was the case and asked a
reconsideration of his application.
The gentleman in question was pre-
cont and he thought he should be al
lowed hearing in his defense. On
motion of Chairman Gibbs the pre-
mission was granted and Guard Van
Dyne ushered into the parlors George
Mackey.
By permission the rules were sus
pended and the desirous candidate was
allowed to state his case. He salc
that thereport of the examining com
,mittee had come to him like a thun
derbolt from clear sky. How such
an idea could have been conceived
was beyond his thought. He had never
in any way, or manner given reason
for such an intimatioD, and he asked
for the appointment of new commit
tee to examine into his application
He would also ask as matter of priv
ilege that Rudd Van Dyne should no
be connected in the examination. Ii
voting against his admission at th'
last meeting, this party knew that b
was infinitely more ineligible than th'
candidate and if the circle would ex
anime into his case now, il would b.
necessary to elect new outside guard
;, Mr.. Mackey's statement came in th
nature of an astonisher TO ali, and OF
motion of Jack Houx, the case of tn
ontside guard was taken up: Mucl
indignation was expressed that an OF
fetal should be guilty Of such action
Genera discussion of the situation fol
followed, and finally the president de
cided that with the authority centerec
in the chair he would take 1t upo
himself to accept and constitute Nh
Mackey a member and that pendin
examination he would suspend til
outside guard and appoint the ne'
member in bis place, temporarily
This episode delayed business yer
greatly and time was speeding away
It was expected that there woul
be several committee reports, and til
president asked if the chairmen wer
prepared.
Chairman Gibbs of the committe
on button holes, said that at eonsu
tation with several of the members,
had been agreed on to sugge
to the circle, the al
pointment of a special con
mittee to obtain information
He had understood that just prevlol
to Christmas an organization ha
been effected in the city by coter
of young ladies known as the .'Ladl
