NAVAL DESERTlONS.
Wholesale Desertion of Seamen and Ma
rines-Tyranny of the Ships Officers.

Wholesale Desertion of Seamen and Ma
rines-Tyranny of the Ships Officers.
New YORK. Sept. 1.-Since the United
States man-of-war Chicago. came into
this port, in the latter part of June,
there have been almost 100 assertions
from her. Marines and seamen have
deserted in patches of five and six.
More are expected to follow.
The runaways, so the former compan-
ions of the deserters say, have left the
navy in this manner simply because the
officers in general, and Captain Robe
son in particular, have treated them
like so many cattle. During the entire
cruise of the White Squadron the
men say they were not treat
ed like human beings. They furnish
many incidents to illustrate these state
ments. One was found in the case, of
the firemen aboard the Chicago. During
the torrid weather the temperature in
the fire room varied from 100 degrees to
140 degrees Fahrenheit The fremen
pleaded for cool water to drink and were
unable to obtain it, for the reason that the
officers of the ship captured all the ice to
keep their wine and beer cool. They
have a machine aboard the Chicago
which converts salt water into fresh.
As the water comes from this condenser
it is very warm They also have ma
chine for making ice. On days when
some of the fremen were sinking un-
conscious beside their furnace doors,
those who were able to bear up amid
the awful heat begged for some
with which to cool their drinking water.
But the officers refused to let them have
it They could drink the warm water
or 60 without The worst of it all was
they did not dare to make complaint
to Commander Robson. They were
afraid he would order them below to be
bound hand and foot in irons and to be
fed on bread and water.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Aug. S0.-The
Minneapolis Exposition of 1890 was
opened to-day with a monster street

button which set the wheels in motion,
one of the ponderous wheels burst with
terrific force. One of the flying pieces
struck Electrician Arthur r Roe in the
head, inflicting a frightful wound He
was taken to his room. 1t is not yet

OKLAHOMA LEGISLATURE.
A Combination In the Interest of Oklahoma
City For the CAPITAL Takes Charge.

A Combination in the Interest of Oklahoma
City For the Capital Takes Charge.
GUTHRIE. Ok, Aug. 30.-The Legisla-
ture was organized yesterday morning
by combination of the Democrats and
Alliance members with the aid of the
three Republican members from Okla
homa City.
In the Council Hon. George W. Gold
enshire, Alliance member from Payne
County, was chosen as president by a
vote Of Z to 6, defeating w. A. Mozart
ney, Republican, of Kingfisher County.
In the lower house there was a bitter
fight all morning, but it soon developed
that the Observation-Disclosures combine
had IA votes to II for the Republicans.
A legal question as to the right to or
ganize without the proper certificates
from Governor Steele was brought
up. The Governor had refused
to issue these certificates on the
ground that membership of the House
was not completed as A. NJ. Carson, the
recently elected delegate at large, was
without credentials. Finally j. C. Post,
Temporary Speaker. adjourned the ses-
sion till two o'clock p. m, the Demo-
Gratis thinking it policy not to question
his right to do this.
In the afternoon n. A. Daniels. an
Alliance member from Canadian County
and former resident of Iowa, was
elected Speaker of the House.
After organizing both houses adj
journed until to-day.
The Oklahoma City Republicans, who
voted for the Alliance men and gave
them the majority, claim that they did
so because of apromise to favor Okla
homa City for capital of the Territory.

Do you want to escape chills and fever
this seasoni No matter how much malaria
is in the atmosphere and how many may Be

remedy, Smiths Tonic Syrup, made by DIR.
John Bull, Of Louisville, KY. It cures chills
and fever when quinine fails. It is far bet
ter than quinine, for It leaves no unpleasant
after effects. Smiths Tonic Syrup Is not
an experiment. For many years it has been

for chills and fever. You do yourself great

The exercises were held in Luker and
Davis hall in accordance with publish
ed program, a good audience being
present. The exercises consisted OF
speeches, songs and recitations appro-
pirate to the occasion. The music
was conducted by Mr.. and Mrs. Meek
er--Mrs. Meeker at the organ. We fall
ed to hear the opening address OF Com
maDder Beasley, but listened to several
following. There seemed to be little
divergence of opinion as TO the utility
OF the association among the speakers,
the divergence appearing in Rev. Mr..
Dlllon's talk. Mr.. ID. took the ground
that the soldier organizations should
give way to citizens organizations.
That the soldier should be swallowed
up in the citizen, and the causes which
made him soldier should be in the
hands Of the citizen to rectify. AS was
to be expected several members Of the
post spoke to this phase of the question !.
