Rev. win Majors Sermon.

Rev. William Major preached for
the Baptist congregation last night,
highly entertaining The audience.
He quoted his text from the fourth
chapter Of Hebrews, "There Re
maineth therefore rest for those who
serve God" dwelling forcibly upon
that sweet rest which awaits the
earnest Christian beyond this life
The Christian warfare was likened
unto business life; whatever pursuit
young man chooses, he pursues
with all the energy and ability of his
nature to win success. If he chooses
to follow no particular calling, maxi
ing way aimlessly through life, then
his life is a failure and his course
downward. So in Christianity, there
are but two channels, and those who
would attain to this beautiful rest
must avoid the path of sin, and it was
Just as easy to choose the upright
course and travel in it as it was to
wander aimlessly down the road Of
sin to wretchedness. The sermon
was short, pointed and entertaining.
Mr.. Major is making a fine start in
the ministry and will, with cXper-
fence, attain to eminence.

against the property of said Roberts, and

Its Wo rst Color.

The Toiler, referring to the Hall
Macune controversy, regrets chat
the matter must be arrayeo before
our enemies in its worst color, and
give them an opportunity TO iujurc
our causo.' The T0iler thinks that
a. decision has been rendered in the
matter it will 90 ono good and much
harm to fight among ourselves"
Brother Mcdowell should have
known in the start that such a de-
cison would not stand in the light
of the facts Of an honest, intelligent
people and the way to have avoided
the unpleasant criticism and saved
the Alliance, increasing its power
and usefulness, was to expose Macunc
and kick him out, instead Of white
washing him and then try to force
honest men to accept the secret pro
ceedings with no other explanation
than that ii was the work of the
committee tor the good of the order.
When the masses are brought to
realize that such men as Macune and
McGrath are to be kept in the lead
and position to sell out whenever
they can profit by the transaction,
then the Alliance will fall, for honest
men will desert it.
Brother Mcdowell should also uu
dprStand that all Of his critics are not
enemies Of the Alliance. There re
many not in the ranks, and many
good newspapers that wish the order
well, aud will help to keep it pure
by exposing the rascaIity Of its lead
ers within the body. This is why
good Alliance men will continue to
read other papers than the organs, as
was arranged for at OCala, against the
advice of leaders. If farmers could
be kept from reading any other but
the organs, Macunc, Grath II Co
might lead them a merry dance
Brother Mcdowell must SEE that the
"worst COLOR of the whole affair is
the whiteWaShlng his committee |
gave Macune at Ocala. As chair .
man he, in justice to himself and his
own people, should not have per
mitted it.

WHAT PEOPLE TALK ABOUT.

Tom McReynolds hitched a stump
sucking colt to "a buggy yesterday and
HE'D himself away to the south side
solely for the purpose Of gathering
dogWood blossoms and TO get good
dinner. He found the blossoms,
plucked a dainty little bouquet Of
them and got his dinner, which made
him feel so good that he went out to
Salem in the evening to hear Bro
Byron preach. After the sermon a
collection was taken tor missionary
purposes, and the church members
were subscribing right along. Tom,
rising, with the aureole Of genuine
ness shining about him, with honesty
and integrity written in every Inca
ment Of his manly face and figure,
spoke out in silvery accents: "Ill

Salem never heard such a clap OF
thunder. The whole heaven thun-
dered, and the air glistened with
forked lightniugs, rafting window
panes, soaring the ladies and chill
dren, causing a stampede among the
horses, around the church, filing
every nook and corner with its Omin
Gus sounds before it died away in the
distance. As soon as the score had
passed a glance at the generous donor
almost made one sick. His head
had turned white and his features
were immovable as marble. The
collection was declared off and the
congregation was dismissed. Tom
McReynolds came back to town and
before breakfast this morning he
had his locks died. That glossy
sheen that covers his Uranium to-day
is nothing but straight bIondine

A special to the Inter-Ocean from Pine
Ridge dated the 4th, says: Last night
was one of feverish excitement to many
at the Agency. For the first time the
squaw men and half-breeds were alarm
ed, and remained up all night fearing
that an attack would be made before
morning. The Agency is too well guard
ed to permit any large force to approach
very close without discovery, but it
would be hard to prevent a few daring
individuals from creeping up some of
the numerous ravines and throwing
fire-arrows into barns and haystacks.
The friendly spies all say that there
are a large number of warriors
in the enemy's camp who have worked
themselves up to condition OF
frenzy similar to those who committed
suicide at Wounded Knee. They say
they want to die, and are going to die
while killing white men. 1t is also said
that two bucks escaped alive from the
Wounded Knee fight, who swore that
they will set the Agency on fire and
kill the agent themselves. General
Miles has his troops all around the
wv bll III 10y "hNA
have tremendous battle, but cSlld not
prevent small bands escaping here and
there, which would have to be followed
up by the soldiers, which would
place the lives of many set
tiers in danger. By holding his
troops until a much larger force
can be thrown around the Indians the
trouble can be confined to the reserve.
The end can not be reached without
one or more battles, and bloody ones,
as there are too many of the crazy who
only want to follow the example OF
their Big Foot relatives. General Miles
sent out letter yesterday asking for a
hearing. The Indians tore the letter
into fragments and threw them into
the fire, saying "We want no treaty;
we are here to fight" Last night sew
eral shots were fred by our pickets,
and couple of arrows were thrown
into the yards. Doctors are constantly
arriving, there being no less than fif'
teen here, with large corps o1
assistants. A delegation Of friend
lies asks that large party be
sent out at once to aid those '-hc

They claim that seven or eight hundred
warriors wish TO return; that they

the matter has been made yet. Sunday

GENERAL MILES
Commands the Forces at Pine
Ridge Agency.
Nebraska state Militia Ordered TO Move
to Chadron, the Scene OF the
Threatened indian Out
break.

A special to the Omaha Bee from Pine
Ridge Agency, dated January 1, says:
General Miles has assumed comm md
of the forces here, relieving General
Brooke, who started this morning into
the Reld with the Second Infantry, go
ing by way of Oelrichs TO n point some
fifteen miles north of here. Yester-
day, amid as wild, binding and Bit
ter wintry storm as ever swept
this bleak and barren country were
laid away to their last rest thirty
of the brave boys who fell with
face to the foe in the bloody encounter
at Wounded Knee 1t was 2 o'clock
when the funeral cortege, with General
Forsythe and Major Whiteside at the
head, and composed of fifteen wagons
bearing the rudely cofined dead, fol-
lowed by an escort of Companies A, X,
b, l, d and E of the noble but
unfortunate Seventh Cavalry, togeth-
er with an assisting squad from the
Second Cavalry, wound away from the
camp up TO the little cemetery situated
at the crest of the hill northwest of the
Agency. The surviving members of the
fated Company X looked lonesome
enough with their fearfully thinned
ranks. The vacancy, so striking in
contrast to the rest of the column,
caused the tears to start in the eyes
Of many a comrade for the comrades
lost. The graves were in rows
of six, close together, in tho
southwest corner of the cemetery and
ALSO overlooking the camp. After the
reading of the burial service by Rev.
Mr.. Cook, the Episcopal clergyman
here, aided by his assistant the bodies
were lowered into the grave Owing
to the intensely critical condition Of
the surroundings, with boards of the
enemy focking about the agency
threatening an attack, the usual sa-
luts Of guns was omitted, while soft
notes from the bugle and the wall OF
the storm whispered the last good-by.
The remains of Captain Wallace will
be sent to Fort Riley, Kas., for inter-
ment. Those of Captain Mills, who
was found dead in his tent from rheu-
matism OF the heart, from witch be hae
been q sufferer for long time, were
sent to Omaha" Governor Thayer, OF
Nebraska, Thursday sent telegraphic
instructions to the commander of the
State militia at Long Pine to move at
once to Chadron, the scene of the threat
ened Indian outbreak. Orders were
also given to the commanders at Ere
mont, Central City and Tekamah to be
prepared to start at any time.

SAYS that the battle between the treach-
