KNIGHTS or PYTHIAS.~-

Great interest is being taken in the
Knights of Pythias encampment, which
will be held in Indianapolis next sum
mer, and there is great rivalry between
several States as to which will have
the largest representation. Indiana
is expected in this, however, as every
Uniform Rank in the State expects to
be there. The HoCsiers outside the
city Of indianapolis are taking as live
" an interest in the success Of the
encampment as are the citizens of
Indianapolis Illinois and Ohio are
striving for the leadership with New
York running a close second. Both
of Indiana's sister States promise to
have over 5000 members Of the uni
form Rank in camp, and New York eX-
poets to send 1000 Iowa, Missouri.
Kentucky, Michigan and Wisconsin
will all be largely represented. The
big parade of the Uniform Rank Will
take place on the 23d. 1t is expected
that there will be fully $4,000 men in
line. and it will be one of the greatest
marching events that this country has
seen since the grand review in Wash
ington at the close Of the war Prep
arations are being made for p, 900 men
in camp, and the grounds selected for
the camp will accommodate nearly as
many more if necessary.

Downright. 1881

New York, April, Margaret Full

the United States Supreme Court. who
is said to have had some stage exper-
fence with travelling companies, but
who sighed for a New York success, .
recently appeared at a special matinee
as the pulmonary heroine of Dumas
perennial play, Camille OF course
some of the alleged funny writer's for
the New York press had to have their
filings at the young lady's very com
mendable ambition and her supremely
sensible manner of gratifying it. 1t is
pretty safe to assert that not one of
the critics of this city expected that
the affair would turn out a success,
but in that they were disappointed. for
Miss Fuller really achieved a distinct
triumph, as has been grudgingly ad-
mitted on all sides. The only fault
that has been found with the young
debutante's work was that she APP
peared to restrain herself unduly,
which, after ALL is pretty good thing

how many persons oyerdo it.

capable of doing work above the or

average actor as it is to Sir Julian
Pauncefote, and many of the Rialto-
ties were anxious to know how that
matter would be arranged in the pre-
liminaryp announcements. Most of
them assumed that Warde's name

the days of yore, and their curiosity

vigorously applied it across the young
mans shoulders. Then came sep
aration and divorce, with large
amount settled upon the wife, followed
by the announcement that Miss Mather
would again return to the stage The
excitement of her unfortunate exper-
lence in Milwaukee brought on a col
lapse of the nervous system and for
several days Miss Mather lay at a hos
pital in Chicago, in a critical condi-
tlon with little hope of recovery. Sub
sequently she regained her strength
and then arrangements were complet-
ed for revival CT her old plays. The
revival was a success. Miss Mather
quickly demonstrated that she had
neither lost her beauty nor her clever
ness. She was rapidly forging ahead
and had she lived she would undoubt-
eddy have won continued recognition
and fame in the great roles she es-
sayed
With the coming of Easter ends the
penItential season, and the various
sacrifices made during that period can
once more be taken up. Once more
fashion and beauty will again be seen
at our theatres, and no more praise
worthy commencement could be made
nor opportunity be had than an attend
ance at the spring engagement of 'The
Players which will be given at the
Opera House on next Wednesday after
noon and night. The bill for this en-
gagement will consist Of three of the
most charming comedies that have ever
been presented, and it is safe to say
that the fashionable audience that will
assemble to witness these capable
players will have an opportunity to
laugh to their hearts content. The
matinee girls will be there in force in
the afternoon. while at night her dear
sisters will grace many theatre parties,
some of which we have been told have
already been formed. The seats for
The Players spring engagement go
on sale Monday morning, and the indi-
cations are for a very large advance
sale, for THE Players popularity in
this community is of no uncertain
quality, and each appearance they
make in this city but strengthens the
good opinions already formed.

1t is remarkable how many persons

conclusion that another "M'liss" cycle
is about due There is no apparent
cause for it. but it is fact that most

GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

Chicago, Feb. 1.-THE most i'm
portant foreign advice, perhaps, was
Broomhall quoting Budaspeth firm,
Amsterdam strong, and mentioning
supplies for Liverpool scarce, with a
probability of an increase in this par
ticulRr in the next three weeks. The
news of yesterday of 500, 900 bushels
of Letter wheat engaged for rail
shipment was confirmed with a pret-
ty strong talk. The total would
amount to 1900, 900 bushels, all rail
We hear spring wheat sold in Liver
pool at S1.22 per bushel, showing ur-
gency of the demand. Visible sup
ply will show a small dec rease as
the Letter shipments will not come
out of the visible this week. There
was some business done in Baltimore
and New York. Modern Miller rath-
er beaa.ish on condition. The week
closes with the bull element certain
ly in control and bears covering
quite freely to the detriment of their
pockets.
Corn-Receipts slightly under the
estimate. Trade has been large spec
ulatively, which advanced May to
soc, while there was considerable
selling and talk about further cut in
eastern rate. Cash demand quiet.
Oats-Have been steady with near
ly a cent added to the price. Cash
handlers have been buyers. Eastern
demand good
Provisions-Cash demand keeps
up, and while on the advance some
profit takicg is done. Packers do no
sell much, as stocks are moderate,
showing large consumption. Hogs
tomorrow expected II be 10,
600, 81, 900 for Monday, and
and 17O,O 900 next weeE. We feel
friendly to provisions, believing 1895
will be bull year.

CounterfeIters Nabbed.

Guthrie, Ok. Feb. 10.-Unit-
ed States Deputy Marshal Rog-
ers, of the Indian Territory,
passed through here yesterday
enroute to Ardmore. He had
in charge 7. C.. Sanders and J.
V. Overton, two prisoners who
have been bound over to the
grand jury by Judge McCombs,
on charge of counterfeitiug.
Deputy Rogers arrested the
prisoners four miles east of
Sallisaw and took from them a
large grip full of counterfeit
coins, ranging from nickels to
dollars. He also captured all
the paraphernalia for making
the queer" together with re
ceipts for mixing metal. These
parties had been travelling over
the country with a magic Ian
tern show and had been suspec-
ted as being the parties who
had distributed so much bad
money for some time. Mar
shall Rogers did a little detec-
tive work over the territory
where they had travelled and Sc
cured evidence sufficient to
send them over the road long
enough to keep them out OF
mischief in the future.

to coverini of shorts over the double
