Successful Meeting Held Yesterday
Afternoon.

The Ladies OF the @. A. II. held an
enthusiastic and busy meeting on Fri
day afternoon. Six ladies and three
comrades were initiated into tho al
ready large circle. The beautiful
flag presented to the Circle by the
members Of the Union Veterans I'm
ion was used In their work, admired
and appreciated by all, each one TAX
ing 1t as a personal gift. They wish
to publicly thank those generous and
noble comrades that have 30 mater
tally added to our pleasure and en-
enlargement; also the gayel that was
theirs, now in our work, Ia looked up
on as sacred relic, wrought from q
tree that grew upon the ground where
the battle Of Gettysburg was fought.
In our meetings we will ever be re-
minded OF our gifts, and the Kindness

the Oskaloosa Circle has received q
notice from the Department President

There were quite a number Of quar-.
rels and feuds about over the county
at different times. To match the
skunk River Army and the Democrat
Rangers, in the north part OF the
county there was a Union organisa.
ton known as the Border Brigade
Tho presence Of these antagonistlc
elements, each working In secret and
often usurping authority which did
not belong to them, made the war
period a pretty warm time in Mahaska
county, At one time a mau by the
name Of Street, who had been sen.
fenced to imprisonment for treason,
was being brought by stage from one
Of the southern counties In the state
on his way to Des Molnes. The
Skunk River Army, who were always
threatening but never did anything,
passed a resolution to rescue the pris.
oner as he passed through Oskaloosa.
About one hundred armel men ap'
peared in Oskaloosa on the day he
was expected and planned to intercept
the stage. The authorities were warn.
ed of the probable interruption, and
bringing with them a company Of mi
litia from Eddyville. passed the city
