BALTIMORE, Dec. 26.-rhe insurance on
the Masonic temple aggregated s95, ,240, and
on the furniture and fittings $1,000. The
old United States court house, building
now vacant, has been secured as
a temporary home for the burned
out Masonic bodies. The loss on
the building is variously estimated at from
$4,000 to 100000, but majority seem to
think that the rebuilding can be done at
cost or 1000. A very large additional
loss was on fixtures in the shape of re-
markably handsome carpets, furniture aud

BIG FOOT'S ESCAPE.

Gen. Schofield has received telegram
from Gen. Miles, dated Rapid City, Dec. "A,
as follows: "Col. Sumner reported his COM
mand at Big Foot's camp on the Cheyenne
river; that Big Foot assured him that he
would do whatever he said and bring all
his people to his (Sumner'sl camp, but
that he deceived him and eluded his
command. going south In light order. This
was most unfortunate just at this time and
may turn the scale against the efforts that
have been made to avoid an Indian war.
Up to this time the prospects looked favora-
bic, and in one week 2, ,444 of the worSS ele-
ment have been removed"
ALL LOOKS LIKE PEACE.
OMAHA, NEB., Dec. ga special from
Pine Ridge says; zone battalion Of the
Seventh cavalry, with two Hotchkiss guns
and pack train, has just left for w ounded
Knee, about thirty miles away. The Indian
council in the Bad Lands decided in
favor Of the hostiles returning to the agency.
They are now all on their way in. Perhaps
fifteen or twenty may slip away, but the
authorities feel that the Indian war has
been ended. At least they express great
satisfaction at the news brought in by the
couriers, who arrived about 2 o'clock i.
There is still danger Of serious
trouble in case an attempt is made
TO disarm the hostiles Unless this is done
all the Indians will be at their agencies
within three or four days"
Another special says: -Four battalions OF
the Seventh cavalry started from here to-
day TO assist Col. Henry In his effort to
capture the Indians who escaped from Col.
Sumner"
A Rapid City special states that seven
lodges OF hostiles arc now on the way to the
agency, and still larger number arc ex-
pected 70 join them. IL Is thought that Big
Foot and his band II braves have started tor
the Cheyenne agency, as Col. Henry's com
mand havs not succeeded in finding aay

HUSTON RBooNs1DERs. zalga
He Withdraws His Resignation Greatly
to the Presidents Satisfaction,

to the Presidents satisfaction.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 26.-Treasurer Hus-
ton has reconsidered his resignation and
agreed to remain in his present position
until the end OF Preident Harrison's term.
Treasurer Huston resigned some time in
July, and has been waiting. with gradually
decreasing impatience, to b8 relieved by the
appointment OF his successor. AT the time
his resignation went in his relations with
the President were greatly strained, and
they are not now cordial, though there is
less feeling than there was This pacifica-
ton of Treasurer Huston IL relief for the
President, not only for thA reason that he
will not have to select new treasurer, but
because of another thing.
INDIANA's CENTRAL COMMITTEE.
President Harrison is considerably in
terested in the reorganization of the state
central committee of Indiana. Upon it de-
pends very largely the question of his re-
nomination. The resignation of Chairman
Michener, OF the state central committee,
necessitates the reorganization, and there
has appeared 10 be some danger that it
would pass into the control of the anti
administration element. Chairman Mich
ener's resignation and that of Treasurer
Huston occurred at about the same time,
and it has been very generally supposed
that Treasurer Huston would be chosen
chairman of the committee. His selection
at the time would probably have been
antagonistic to President Harrison's interest,
Treasurer Huston's resignation was infu-
enced, it is said, by the fact that he didn't
think that the President and Mrs. Harrison
had treated Mrs. Huston with proper
consideration since their removal from
Indianapolis to Washington. Mrs. Huston
is now to have all she desires.

Concert goers to whose lot itmay have
fallen to listen to a song being delivered
in one key while the accompaniment
was played in another will greet with
satisfaction the Introduction of q trans-
posing piano, by means of which music
can be t~ransposed into any key At will.
The object In view is accomplished by q
movable back; 1. g., the solid back upon
which the strings are strung. instead of
being ngidly fixed to the case, as In the
ordinary way. Is fitted on rollers, and is
moved laterally with the greatest ease
by means Of a lever underneath the key

all other respects the construction is the
same as in the ordinary piano. Any do
sired change of key can be made in two
or three seconds. The movement can
be worked with perfect ease. and the
mechanism Is of so simple a character
that its liability to get out of order is
practically nil.-New York Commercial

Sudden upon the quiet street / heard thy voice,

Thy voice, loved one! Canst thou tell all It meant
To me- who yesrned for one lost happy Year,
Once more my heart lay bleeding at thy feet:
Upon the altar of the past an offering fel-a tear
Through open window anne the well known voice,
Its gentle cadencos were all the same;
The years rolled back-ths folly, the regret
Once more Irrofered all thou wouId'st not claim.
And Jet thou oAnst forgive, and understand

As the Spencer war balloon. in a re-

back to London, the balloon having &C
complained the Journey in twenty min
utes less than the train. The voyage
through the air was very interesting,
and when at al altitude of 1900 feet, rs
recorded by the aneroid barometer, the
throbbing ofia steam engine could be
distinctly heard, also the report of a
sportsman's gun, accompanied by the
bark Of a dog. The travelling was at the
rate of about twenty-five miles an hour.
but to the seronauts the balloon was ap-
parently stationary. and 1t was with
great surprise that ON emerging from

FEARS seem to be entertained by the
Sun that THE LEADER is In an unhappy
frame OF mind. WI hope the editor OF
the Sun doesn't lie awake at night
worrying over this matter. THE LEADER
is not half as unhappy as it might be. 1t
sees the Democratic party falling into line
with its war paint on and this is enough
to dispel its gloom at any time. As to
the so-called statehood celebration it de-
generated into a Republican glori6cation
and a mutual admiration society, while
the people irrespective Of party paid the
fiddler. Perhaps it would have been bet
ter as a prominent Republican suggested
to have turned all the money collected
into the Republican campaign fund. This
wa practically the use that was made Of
most OF it anyhow.

The Sheridan Post. a narrow gauge
Republican paper. has this to say Of a
Democratic meeting in Sheridan: THE
Sheridan county Democratic club held
another pow pow at Coffeen's hall last
Saturday evening. The members had
the band out to play on the streets to sx-
cite and collect all the unterri6ed men
and women. The meeting was conducted
more oI the style of a Methodist camp
meeting than anything else. William
Brown Of Big Horn and H. A. Ccfeen
and M. L. Blake were the principal ex-
horters. A large number of ladies were
present. and a committee of four ladies
solicited members from the female por-
ton of the audience, and quite . number
were oyer-persuaded to hand in their
names as members"

The Sun criticises the firemen because
they failed to turn out to the Corlett
funeral and apologies for them because
they failed to turn out to the so-called
statehood celebration. Mr.. Corlett had
not been identified with the fire compa-
MES, either actively or on the honorary
rolls, since 1874. when he withdrew
from the Durants. The fremen did not
turn out to the so-called statehood cele-
bration because they would not lend
themselves to making political capital out
of what should have been a purely public
demonstration The freman could neither
be taffied nor hoodwinked.

ADVERTISING THE STATE.

Wyoming is receiving q good deal of
Tree advertising nowadays. There is no
doubt that the coming election will be
watched with great interest from all over
the country. The following quotation
from the Troy. N. Y, Budget, a paper
which is now IN the one hundredth year
of its publication, which is now correct in
ali its details, shows the kindly interest
taken in the new state:
Now that Wyoming has been admitted
into the union as the fortyIfourth state,
the new sister presents some interesting
features well worthy of Watching and
studying. 1t is the first state to inoorpor-
ate into her constitution female suffrage.
On July 25, 1868, Wyoming made its
first appearance on the map Of the North
American continent, An act Of congress
carved it with the Dakotas out Of the
Great American Desert. 1t is one of the
largest and will be one of the richest
states in the union. Its area is 97,575
square miles-as large as New York aud
Pennsylvania together. 1t is well water
ed, as three Of the largest rivers in North
Amenca have their sources there, aud
four others cross the boundaries on
either side. She has from 1000, 900 to TO-
900, 900 acres OF spruce and pine forests,
which, with the melting snow IN her
mountains, keep the smaller streams full
most of the year. Besides her agricul-
tural resources, Wyoming is nch in min
erals and oil. She already has about
100. 900 inhabitants. The first Legislative
assembly Of Wyoming passed = lsw that
every woman Of the age Of Is. resident In
the territory, may at every election cast
her vote and her rights to the elective
franchise, and to hold Office. shall be the
same under the election laws of the terri
tory, as those Of electors" This is the law
now. The law was passed almost unani-
mously. and without debate, and partly asa
joke and partly to advertise the territory.
The Legislature was Democratic, end q Re-
publican governor signed 1t. Before that it
Is said the elections were disorderly, but
when the first carriage rolled to the polls
loaded with women to vote, the rough
pioneers fell back and maintained re
spectful silence, aud from that moment
on all the elections have been as orderly
as a religious meeting. Women have
since held judicial Offices, have acted as
jurors, and have SO well DISCHARGED their
duties that no ons thinks now Of depriy-
ms them Of the rights of suffrage and
oficeholding. Evidently these have come
to stay. 1t is tremendous step forward
for woman, and furnishes an object les
son well worth studying.
