Sermon to Odd Fellows.

On last Sunday night Rev. j. S. French
prea he'd an able sermon to the members
of Bluegrass Lodge, No. l42, l. o. o. F.
The Lodge attended in full regalia and the
church was filled with large and deeply
interested congregation. Mr.. French
selected us his text the remarks of Abra-
ham to Lot when they found it necessary
to part" "Let there be no strife between
me and thee, between my herdmen and
thy herdmen, for we be brethren. In
the discussion Of the text the speaker
spoke very earnestly of the friendship that
exists between men, and denied the asser-
tions of the cynics that there is no such
thing as genuine, unalterable and unend-
ing human friendship. In speaking OF
secret orders he said they in no way under
took TO do the work Of the Church, and
made no preteEse Of being Christian or
CARNATIONS. The work, however, which
they were doing was highly useful ,and their
tendency to establish more firmly the
brotherhood of mankind throughout the
world. His appeal to the members of the
order who were present TO use the three
links, representing the tenets of the order
to uplift and elevate fallen humanity was
earnest and eloquent. 1t must have made
profound impression not only upon the
Odd Fellows present but upon all who
heard it understandingly.

Lawton's Flying Column to Attempt to
Flank the Rebels at the Same
Time.

Manila, April 24.-7:40 a. m.-General
MacArthur's division left Malolos today,
apparently intending to besiege Calumpit.
General Hale at 4:10 this afternoon had
crossed the Bagbag and had reached a
position a quarter of a mile from Calumpit,
thus commanding the ford.
Prisoners captured by General Hale's
troops cay Aguinaldo, General Luna and
the Filipino staff are at Calumpit with a
great force of Filipino troops.
Before daylight the Fourth Cavalry,
with three guns belonging to the Utah
battery, the Nebrasks regiment and the
Iowa regiment under General Hale, were
proceeding in the direction of Kuinchua,
where tue Bagbag (Tibabag?) is fordable,
but commanded by trenches. During the
afternoon the troops crossed the river.
Generals Macarthur and Wheaton with
the Montana regiment advanced to the
eft of the railroad, and the Kansas regl-

execution at the capture Of Malolos. The
insurgents attempted to destroy the rail-
road bridge outside of Calumpit, and suc'
ceeded in badly warping the iron frame

FieId-AmerlCaR Annoyed

no loss Sustained.

Manila, April 22.-7 p. m.-General
Lawton took the field at day to day
with column of troops, consisting of the
North Dakota regiment, two battalions of
the Third Infantry, the Twenty second In
fantry, two guns Of Scotts battery, three
troops of the Fourth Cavalry and Giles
squadron, equipped in light marching or
der. This force started at five O'Clock this
morning over the Novaliches road, travers-
ing the country previously cleared Of the
rebels but subsequently reoccupied by
them. 1t is to be presumed that General
Lawton by this movement will outfank
the enemy before joining General Mac
Arthur north of Malolos.
The Dakota Regiment first encountered
the enemy in front of Novaliches at Sis
4. IN. The rebels opened fire on our troops
but their fire was sienced fifteen minutes
later, the enemy retiring in bad order and
the Americans advancing along the rough
roads about Novaliches. They were con.
siderably annoyed by the fire Of the rebel
sharp-shooters from the jungle for two
hours.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the reb-
els were in full flight, leaving many dead
on the field, and our troops were compell-
ed to take brief rest in the shade, as the
heat was overpowering.

The LAST DESPERATE STAND
Which 1t Was Expected They Would Make

There for the First I lime In the War,

Manila, April 2G.-Aguinaldo's army is
to-day defending Calumpit energetically,
which is said to indicate that the insur-
gents are making there their last desperate
stand, which the Americans expected them
to make at Malolos. The Filipnos for the
first time used artillery and brought two
guns into action at the trenches to-day be-
fore Calumpit, firing modern shrapnel,
burst over the heads of Wheaton's men
without effect. The fighting, which be-
gan Yesterday, resulted in the capture of
the outer trenches by the Americans, and
was resumed at 6 O'Clock this morning.
During the night the American engineers
repaired Bagbag bridge, enabling our
troops to pass the river. Wheaton's
brigade advanced in extended order with
the Kansas regiment west of the railroad
and the Montana regiment east Of it and
look position one and half miles off the
south bank Of the Rio Grande, where the
fortified trenches, from which few
American soldiers would have been able to
defy thousands, go strongly were they con-
structed, we're found to be deserted.

SAMOAN TROUBLE.
Herr Marquardt Tells the Story of His
Arrest.

Berlin, April 22.-The Lokal Anzeiger
today publishes two letters from Samoa,
dated March 23d. One of them is from
its special correspondent of Apla, Herr
Won Wolfersdorfi, and the other from
Herr Marquardt, prominent German
resident Of Apia, who, under Tamasese,
was military instructor and later under
Mataafa and the provisional government,
was Justice of the peace until he resigned.
From Herr Marquardl's letter it ap-
pears that it was he and not Herr HUFF
nagel, who was arrested by Captain
Sturdee, commander of the British war
ship Porpoise. for bearing arms against
the British sailors.
He says he was taken on board the Por'
poise where, he claims, he was grossly
insulted by Captain Sturdee and that
after fourteen hours captivity, during
which no proof against him was advanced,
he was transferred to the German warship
Fake but with the condition that he IVES
not to leave her.
Herr Marquardt asserts that his prof.
erty was stolen and destroyed by Malietoa
Tanus' hosts and that millions Of other
Germany property was likewise destroyed.
The writer then asks who will pay the
damage?
Herr Won WolGersdorf asserts that the
British consul, Mr.. Maxsie, and Cap
tain Sturdee are both guilty Of the gross
est conduct in exceeding their treaty
powers.
He claims they treated the Germans
like captives and continued an almost in
cessant shelling of German houses under
various pretexts.

got out twelve page paper, which was
STYLED the 'Board of Trade Edition" 1t
was devoted almost exclusively to the his
tory of the business enterprises Of that
city, and from the appearance ofthe paper
the business men of the place must have
given the Tribune" their cordial support
in getting out the special edition. Well
conducted papers are of incalculabe bene-
fit to any town, and the business men OF
any place who fail to recognize the fact
are making a great mistake.

NATIVES FLOCK IN.

As soon as the soldiers left the Filipino
capital the natives began tlocking in, as
they did-at Santa Cruz before the last
boat of General Lawtons expedition had
sailed. Our army is compelled to aban-
don all towns when an onward movement
is commenced, because of insufficient men
to garrison them. This gives the Filipino
leaders framework upon which to spin
stories Of American defeat.
The American commanders have left
great stores of rice at Malolos, which they
have been distributing to the natives and
Cinnamon daily, of whom they were 200
to 900, nearly all Of whom remained DUR
ing the occupation, but who followed the
American army out of the place, or who
took the trains going in the direction Of
Manila, fearing the rebels would kill them.
These refugees included some Of the veal
thiest citizens of the place.

staff, is IN command of the Nebraska

EDITORIAL PARAGRAPHS.

The Legislature of Minnesota has passed
an act that prohibits the practice Of "boy-
cotting." The act makes it unlawful to
employ any method for advertising the
fact that boycott exists towards any per-
son or firm. This is step in the right
direction. Boycotting is the offspring of
communism or socialism.
Our Democratic friends are greatly
elated at the announcement that Hon.
Thos. B. Reed will retire from politics.
Reed is strong and useful man to the

can take and fill Reeds place.
! The jury in the celebrated Lake City
lynching case on the 22nd inst.
reported its inability to agree upon yer.
dict. The prosecution had made out a
strong case, but public sentiment has been
so debauched by lawlessness in South
Carolina that juries are afraid to do their
duty.
In reply to requests made the Governor
of Oregon to demand the return of the
Oregon volunteers now in the Philippines,
the Governor stated that he will make no
such demand; that such a proceeding
would be a discredit to the State and un.
just to the soldiers, who were anxious to
60 to the Philippines. That is the right
view of the situation.
If the Constitution is ever changed so IS
to have United States Senators chosen by
direct vote of the people, there should
be plain, honest election law provided
for that purpose. The law should be
general one for all the States, with Federal
supervision. The clamor for a change in
the Constitution has been occasioned by
the corruption of Legislatures by candi-
dates for the Senate. What will be the
use of trying to escape that trouble and
running upon another that would come
under the dishonest election laws Of some
of the States ?
The latest lynchings in the South were
too revolving to be published to the world.
The outside world will begin to doubt the
civilization of the people of Georgia.
Think of 1000 people, calling themselves
human beings standing by and yelling ap-
proval while even beast in human shape
was burned at the stake, his body cut to
pieces before it was cool, the bones crush
ed to small pieces and distributed as
souvenirs. The men who committed such
deed were more beastly than the beast
who committed an unmentionable crime.
