Perhaps to the masses Lieutenant G. A.
L. lotion is what is called an eccentric
thinker. lie has certainly departed from
the conventional channels of liturature,
but to those who can comprehend and
follow hIm intelliRently in bis Biblical re
searches and complex calculations, his
works have peculiar significance which
tempts scholars to believe and makes
skeptics think. His declare ton that the
recent aurornl display in the heavens was
only one OF the numerous signs that are
past and are soon to come as forerunners
the end of the world, has caused many
10 look upon him as a modern prophet.
But, IL Is understood he Indignantly re-
pudiates any such title.
Lieut.. lotion is at present detailed as
Professor Of Military Science and Tactics
at Yale College. He was born in Con-
uecticut and appointed to the Military
Academy at West Point as cadet Sept,
1st, 1869. He was commissioned Second
Lieutenant in the 4th Artillery June 13,
1873, and was made First Lieutenant May
20, 1876. He is now enrolled with Bat
terry l.
Lieut.. lotion is a man somewhat under
the average stature. He is of taciturn dis.
position, his mein isserious and his glance
quick and perceptive. Withal he can enjoy
IA joke and laugh heartily. He is great
smoker, and his dearest friends are his
pipe and little leather satcher contain
ing his calculations. These two articles
are always with him wherever he goes.

cattlemeu, who expect to lease the In
dian lands during the twenty-five years
that they are inalienable. The more the
settlers learn Of this action of the cattle
men the more they become incensed,
and already many have formed an Or
ganization whose members are sworn to
fight any cattlemen who attempt to
come into the reservation.
The Crowds Increasing.
The crowds coming in on the trains
have greatly increased during the past
twenty-four hours. and the large wagon
trains in camp all over the territory are
preparing to move to the line and get in
readiness for the rush at Lincoln, o. T.
Fully 1000 southern negroes are in
readiness, but will not move to the line
until next Sunday. They announce that
they will go to the reservation in body,
settle together and fight for their land
if necessary. Every man of them is
armed. The scene along the line on
Sunday was a strange one. While a
few people tried to observe the Sabbath,
the majority of the crowd carried on
their usual card playing, swearing and
concocting schemes to beat somebody
else. Here and there an itinerant
preacher attempted to hold services, but
received little encouragement.
The gambling dens have been driven
out Of the saloons by the commissioners
of the different counties with the threat
that their licenses would be revoked,
but they are establishing themselves in
tents and Sheds and raking in the
money by the peck. Nine new lumber
yards have been established on the line
within a week. Train load after train
load of lumber comes in, and yet the
supply is not equal to the demand.
