TACOMA, WASH, June 13.-An aerial
visitor, with a head resembling an arc
light, a tail twenty feet long and four feet
wide, and all the colors of rainbow, fell
this morning near the Oakland school.
P. H. Carney and several others were wit
nesses to the extraordinary phenomenon
while on their way to this city from
Edison at 10 NJ. The sun was shining
brightly at the time, and the long, oscil-
lating tail in its iridescent splendor pre-
sented a beautiful sight as it shot through
the air. The meteor disappeared in the
trees, and Immediately there followed a
decided jar. An investigation is being
made in the vicinity. where the under.
brush and trees are dense.

October IS, 1895.
George Hodgson, Esq, City.
Dear Sir-I am in receipt Of your ia
vor Of the 18th inst, rela tive to the poll
teal situation in this county. and like
yourself, I am somewhat adrift, and
hardly know where / am at
''At the time of dts organization, be-
came a member Of the Populist party.
because / believed there was a demand
for a party founded upon the principles
which that party advocated I am still
a believer in the original doctrines of
that party, but / think the political
EcheTners Of this county have carried it
a long ways from the original faith.
One of the original tenets of that party
relative to candidates for office. and
one which We discussed pretty freely,
was the idea that the office should seek
the man and that there should be rota-
ton in Office In the elections up to the
present canvass, we had adhered CLOSELY
TO that doctrine. Mr. Ayres. whom we
succeeded in e1ecting to the office of dis
rrict clerk, was recognized as splendid
officer and perfect gentleman, and vet
at the close OF his first term we refused
him denomination. We did the same
thing with Mr.. Kies, one of the recoe-
nized leaders of the party in this
county.
Our present ticket, however. seems to
be very great departure from the rule.
/ have looked over the records of the
respective candidates on the Fusion and
Republican tickets. and find that in this
respect the politicians have practically
captured our party. Taking the cleo
tive salaried offices, which each has
held, find a comparison to be about as
follows.

To the Editor Of the Eagle
have read with interest your edi-

looking well 10 the interest OF his. So
that unless we have a man that is their

Il think Mr.. Campbell was county at
torney of Harper county at one time by

slDly Mr.. Hatton have held some small
offices under appointment, but the
above, / think, illustrates fairly the
elective offices to which the gentlemen
named have been called, with the sal
aries attached. I leave YOU to draw
your own conclusions from the above
hg'ures. which speak for themselves.
But there is another thing, which
seems to my mind, to be quite as SER
loJHs. You are well aware that from
the first number Of the Populists of
this county, together with myself. have
believed in standing squarely upon the
PLATFORM OF cur party without comfcin-
ing or fusing with some other party
merely to get the spoils of a few local
ofices. ] think the figures will Illus
trate that in this respect we have been
merely used as tools by the Democratic
politicians without getting any cor-re-
spending benefits. The following will
show about how we have been treated in
this matter of fusion:
In 1882, there was n pretense Of fu-
SION The candidates representing the
democratic party on the ticket for that
year, were O'BTyan for senator, and
Boone for county attorney The can
dldates representing the Popuist party
on the ticket. were Stratton. for probate
Judge, and kies for district clerk.
In the year of 1898. there was also a
fusion The four principal offices TO
be filled that year were sheriff, treasur-
~. county clerk and register Of deeds.
Those representing the Democratic par
~ were Mosbacher for sheriff. and Dor
sCy for register of deeds. Those Of the
Populist party, Teachout for treasurer.
and Harris for county clerk.
The following is the result of the
election.

JOKE ON THE BANDITS.
Train Robbers Ran or the baggage Car In.
stead of the Express Car.

CAMDEN. Ark. Jan. a.-Six masked
men made an effort to rob the north bound
Cotton Belt train ut a tank ten miles south
of Camden. Their object was to secure
the express money. Tho train stopped as
usual to take water, and the negro porter
got of the train to go around to the tank
to let the water on. He was stopped, how
ever, by q winchester in his faco and or
dered to uncouple the cars. This order
was obeyed, and the engineer. who was
under guard, was made to run the car up
from the train n distance of half n mile
The bandits discovered too late that they
had inade n water haul. taking the bag
gage car instead of the express car. They
had to take their medicine and 60 to the
woods. Tho leader told the engineer that
he had the laugh on them, but would see
him again. The work was so quickly
done that the passengers did not know
what was going on until the would be
robbers had found a refuge In the dense
forest.
The scene of the robbery Is more than o
mile from any residence There Is no bet
ter place than this for bandits to ply their
calling. On the arrival of the train at
Camden the sheriff was informed, and a
posse was soon on the ground, bat no
clew to the whereabouts of the men could
be obtained a special train was run from
Texarkana carly in the morning, with
men, guns and horses, to continue the
search. At this hour there have been no
new developments in the vigorous search
which is going on.
The highwaymen were masked with red
bandanna handkerchiefs. 1t is supposed
they went out from Camden. and 1t is even
intlmated that they live in Camden.
A dispatch from the Cotton Belt off,
Gals states that q reward of 5000 will be
paid for tho arrest and conviction of the
party, and the governor is expected to

For Three Hours MIR. and Mrs. Cleveland
shook Hands with All Corners.
WASHINGTON. Jan ,. - With bright
skies overhead. reasonahly clean pave
ments under foot. and crisp clear. wintry
weather, official Washington was favored
with all the conditions necessary to the
fomplcte enjoyment of such New Years
LAY as only Washington knows.
According to the time honored CUSTOM,
which was observed to the letter, all Off
Gals called at the White House, where
they We're received in the order of their
ranks, to pay their respects to the presi-
dent. All the cabinet secretaries. generals
and admirals in turn received the officials
of lesser rank, and many congressman
and others Kept open house for their con-
Stituents and friends. Society in general
has in past times given itself over to the
making and receiving of formal calls, but
in Washington, as in other cities, the OBJ
servance of the LIST of January as a social
day has come to be disrcgarded. and there
were probably fewer open houses than
ever before
All the brilliancy and interest of the
day were for thrcc hours sheltered under
the roof of the executive mansion, where
the gaSlight in the big ceremonial parlors
fell on banks of palms and troops of richly
al, ircd ladies and many notable men.
Apart from the Interest which always at
taches to the president and his family,
Mrs Cleveland has personal popularity
which draws many TO her receptions. She
shook hands with every mau. woman and
child who filed past in the long procession
of three hours length, and gave to the
greeting of each one warmth which
gained for her the everlasting friendship
of the recipient. The President also grasp
I'd every caller by the hand and had n
word for every one whcE there was time.
The man with wheels in his head
who has been personally commissioned by
the Lord to do something ridiculous or
dangerous is the terror Of these occasions.
He was on hand. Very appropriately he
Wore long hair, and after he had passed
the police he drew from his pocket dOcu'
mont bearing weird symbolic design
in red and blue, but the appearance oi
the receiving party seemed to dazzle him
so that he merely shuffled past without
putting it to any use.
The policeman who endeavors to do hi:
duty in compelling the observance of reg
ulations and apprehendS some high digni
tary of the government in his misguided
zeal is always in evidence.
He endeavored TO bar Secretary Lamont
from the Blue room. but readily yieldot
his point when the secretary good natur
eddy revealed his identity. There were nj
accidents, however. and no unpleasant in
cidents, and the reception was success
