GRAND LODGE WINS.

1t Nav Levy the Tax support the De
Boissiere Home.
Judge Hazen in the district court this
morning decided the famous DeBois-
siere Odd Fellows Orphans Home case
in favor of the Grand lodge; SO the
Grand lodge is given the right to levy
the tax to support the DeBoissiere- Or
phans' Home. This was an injunction
suit brought by Reno lodge No. 80, l.
o. Q. F. and other lodges against the
Grand lodge l. o. o. F. of Kansas TO re-
strain the collection of the per capita tax
for the DeBoissiere Odd Fellows Or
phans' Home.
The opinion is elaborate one cover
ing twelve typewriter pages, and ably
discusses the questions raised in the
case.
Judge HAGEN holds that the Legislation
by the Sovereign Grand lodge l. o. o. f.
enacted in 1892, gives full authority to
the Grand lodge Of Kansas to levy the
tax in question. Also that the tax was
legally levied Also that the deed of
trust made by Mr. DeBoissiere, vests the
title to the valuable property conveyed
by him, in the Grand lodge I. o. o. F. Of
Kansas, for the purposes of an orphans
home and Industrial school, and that
under the authority of the Sovereign
Grand lodge cited, the Grand lodge of
Kansas, has full power to levy such per
capita tax, as in its judgment may be
necessary, to establish and carry on the
home.

CHICAGO Herald: Governor Bonn bastes
Furioso Jackson, of Iowa, has added
neither to his popularity nor to his rep
utation for good sense by badgering the
Coxeyites with the militia. Kelly's army
made its progress from California to
Council Bluffs without causing any
trouble. There was no indication that it
would do any harm in Iowa. But Jackson,
either from an itch for notoriety or
through the promptings of fool advis-
ers, made great hubbub and ordered
out the state troops to maintain the peace.
The result has been exactly opposite to
that which was intended. All the dis
order that has occurred has been caused
by drunken militiamen and vaporing
officers. The Coxeyites have been not
ably quiet and law abiding. If jackson
had kept his hands off the commonweal-
ers would probably have been out of
the state by this time. His interference
has stirred up a turmoil, got the rail-
roads into bad humor, caused the citi-
zens of Council Bluffs great expense and
trouble, and kept Kelly's followers from
pursuing their march. He ought to be
proud Of himself.

Now, while thousands of men are
marching on to Washington with the in
tention of making congress do some
thing" it may be interesting to know
how congress is spending its time. A
special dispatch to the st. Louis Post
Dispatch and the same dispatch to the
New York World state that when the
tariff debates begin at l o'clock in the
afternoon, every senator except three or
four leaves the senate chamber and goes
driving or otherwise amuses himself.
The correspondent says: "a glimpse of
the senate yesterday afternoon afforded
fair illustration of the utter lack of in
terest and inattention. Senator CALM
ger, at o'clock. was going through the
motions of senator delivering speech.
He had borrowed a chair down in the
front row and was reading SO fast that no
stenographer could report him from
mass of typewriter manuscript about
foot thick. He actually read SO fast that
all sense of punctuation and infection
was lost. The vice president was doing
in his chair, one clerk was on guard at
the secretary's desk, where generally
there are four, and all the pages but one
we're playing marbles and boxing down
in the basement There were two sena-
tors on the Republican side; one was the
handsome and wealthy Mcmillan of
Michigan, who was listening because he
expected to take the floor later in the day
and wanted Gallinger to listen to him.
The other was the long-whiskered
Moses Dolph of Oregon, who was listen
ing for the same reason. Over on the
Democratic side Senator Cockrell was
writing letters, Pugh of Alabama was
talking in stage whisper that could be
heard all over the house to one of his
friends, and the new senator, Walsh of
Georgia, sat on sofa telling stories to
group of friends. Through the open
door of the cloak rooms on both the Re
publican and Democratic side of the sem
ate chamber blue smoke was issuing,
and the repeated bursts of laughter in
dictated that Wolcott or Blackburn or
some other of the jolly men of the SEN
ate had told a new story. As it grew
toward o'clock the cloak room crowds
evaporated and no one was left but the
four or five senators pretending to listen
to Gallinger, Mcmillan and Dolph, and
up in the gallery a few spectators were
scattered, wondering what it was about
and where they were at" This is what
general debate on the tariff means in the
senate; so this is the way that congress
is legislating for the people. How do
you like it?

Judge Caldwell was born in what is
now West Virginia in 1882. When he
was a child years Of age, his parents
moved westward in a section of the state
of Iowa, which was then part Of the
territory of Wisconsin. His boyhood
was chiefly given over to the most ar
duous kind Of toll What books he was
able to secure were eagerly devoured,
and at the age of II he began the study
of law in an Office at Keosauqua, Ia.
Three years later he was admitted to
practice, and by the time he was "a he
was prosecuting attorney Of his district
He then went to the state legislature,
and during two sessions was chairman
of the house Judiciary committee.
The civil war breaking out, he threw
aside everything to enter the service and
was enrolled as major of the Third To-
wa cavalry. Subsequently he became
colonel of the regiment, succeeding Cen
eral Bussey, assistant secretary Of the
interior during Mr.. Harrison admins
tration. AS IN officer he was intrepid,
energetic and efficient and would prob
ably have attained high rank had not
President Lincoln taken him from the
ranks to serve as the first district judge
of Arkansas.
This appointment was made in 1864,
and Judge Caldwell retained the Office
until March, 1890, when he succeeded
David J. Brewer of Kansas as circuit
judge AS presiding officer Of the fed
eral court III Arkansas he made his name
as a jurist. His court was the first to
pass upon the many questions arising
out of the civil war, and the business
and evenness of his decisions are shown
in the fact that not one Of his opinions
carried to the United States supreme
court was Overruled-

THE Los ANGELES SUNK.

The Steamer Strikes a Rock Near Nom
ter-y, Cal, and Six Lives Los.
MONTEREY, Cal, April 23.-From the
latest information to be had here it is
believed that at least six lives were lost
with the steamer Los Angeles which
Saturday night Three bodies have been
cast upon the beach near the light house.
These are the bodies of Timothy n To-
Ian, fireman of the steamer; Fitzgerald,
a passenger. and a hostler named Saun-
ders from Los Angeles. The youth who
died in one of the lifeboats from expos
ure in the water and while cIinging to
the rigging, was the son of Mrs. Augusta
Curtin of Los Angeles. It is also know n
from Ventura, and q Chinese steerage
passenger from Los Angeles were
drowned.
The manner of the fireman Nolan's
death was an added terror to the occu-
pants of the life boat in which he at
tempted to reach the shore. The man at
the oars worked the heavy craft almost
against the steep, rocky cliffs at the sum-
NIT of which is Point Sur lighthouse,
but so dangerous was their position in
the heavy swell that they dared not at
tempt landing below the cliff.
When they put about and headed out
to sea again, Nolan plunged into the sea
determined to swim to the rocky shore.
It was little less than suicide, for he
drowned in full sight of all in the boat
1t is believed that later reports will re-
veal still greater loss of life.
The steamer Los Angeles has now
sunk below the surface of the ocean
Nothing can be saved. There was no in
surance on the vessel or her cargo which
il estimated worth $4,000

PULLMAN MEN TO QUIT.
Four Thousand Workrnen viii Strike on
May First.

CHICAGO, April 2S.-The Times says:
The 1900 employees of the Pullman Pal
ace Car company at Pullman will declare
a strike May /.
The trouble has been brewing ever
since the reduction in the mems wages
ordered last year.
No strike was declared when the re-
duction was made, because the men were
only imperfectly organized and no move
ment could have been made effective.
During the last six weeks, however, ac-
tive efforts have been made by the Pull
man employees thems elves and by the
labor leaders of Chicago to bring all of
them into the fold of the building trades
council. This has practically been done,
so that a general strike when ordered
will now be effective.
