WAITING HIS COMING
Hoiey's Snpuorters Refasetl a Permit
For Open Air Meetings,
GEORGE FRANCIS TRAIN ARRIVES
Quivering on a Revolution, to Which
the Jeff Davis Matter Will Be an
.Item in Comparison.
RANK AND - FILE.
Wabhixgto, April 26. The district
commissioners cast a damper over the
local supporters of the Coxey movement
today' by refusing them permission to
bold open air meetings. It has been ex
pected by the enthusiasts that these
meetings would draw converts and cash
contriVu .".ons to the cause. The Coxey
iteg are r.ngered at this refusal. The
event of t.he day, however, was the
advent of Citizen George Francis Train,
who predicts that we are quivering on
the biggest revolution the world has ever
en, and that the "Jeff Davis matter"
won't be an item in comparison. The
authorities in charge of the capitol
buildings are now considering the advis
ability of formally surrendering (heir
authority to the District of Coin., Ma,
and asking that sufficient protection be
given by the police force of the city. An
Odd Fellows' procession attempted to
march through' the capitol grounds to
day, but was turned back by the capitol
force. The Odd Fellows made eome re
monstrance, but when assured the law
permitted no exceptions, they quietly
acquiesced. The incident will doubtless
prove a precedent if Coxey intends to
invade the grounds as he says is his in
. tention.
' WILT. KNOW TUB CBOOK8.
The authorities at Washington have
requested the chiefs of police in all cities
to detail their most experienced detect
ives to either follow the armies or go to
Washington and assist the police de
partment of the capital to manage the
great crowd that are certain to assemble.
Chief of Detectives O'Shea, of Chicago,
will send several of bis best men. who
are familiar with the crooks who infest
his part of the country. The authorities
at the capital believe that criminal
characters from all over the country will
flock to that city; thinking that during
the confusion Washington will be a
good place for thieving and swindling.
By massing the detectives, recruited
from all parts of the United States, at
the capital, these characters can be
spotted and locked up. The authorities
at Washington will pay all expenses of
the officers supplied, and intend to keep
them there a month or two, until all the
trouble is passed.
Oeneial Kelley Men.
Adair, la., April 27. One hundred
and twenty-one of the Sacramento men
were migsing today when Kolley massed
the industrial army for march. The
men asserted last night that they
would walk no further, and after break
fast tried to steal rides. Rain began
falling soon after dawn, and there were
scarcely sufficient wagons to haul the
baggage. Grumbling among the men
was loud and deep. Kelley ordered the
army forward, telling the men to take
the railroad instead of the wagon road
if they wished. "But do not interfere
with the trains," he commanded. "If
you do you cannot go further with me."
The eight-mile tramp to Casey was very
slow, but a hot meal and coffee revived
the men '8 courage, and the remainder of
the trip better time was made. . One of
the Council Bluffs advance committee,
R. O. Graham, became ' convinced today
that further efforts to secure wagons for
transportation for the army was useless
and returned home. .

Where the Different CntinfenU aire
- Locstetl and Their Condition.
Coxey and his followers continue in
Maryland and are marching in the
neighborhood of Hyattstown.
The Butte contingent, under "Gen
eral" Hogan are in the toils of the law.
They stopped with their stolen train at
Forsy the, Mont., intending to stop for
the night. U. S. troops, comprising 500
men under Col. Page, arrived soon after,
and lined up on the platform beside the
Coxey train and the Montana contingent
was ordered to surrender. It was
scarcely a necessary command, and it
was promptly obeyed. The common
weal train consisted of 14 cars. One was
well filled with provisions and one with
railway tools, one with coal and the
other 11 cars carried men. Each carried
from 30 to 40 men, together with their
baggage, camp equipage, etc., making a
total of 400 men. The train was side
tracked and put under guard and "Gen
eral" Hogan, Conductor Willy and En
gineer Cleveland were put in a box-car
by themselves.
Kelly and his mob are in Anita, la., 1
and are said to have settled all their
differences. Kelly, who is eaid to have
been a professional ball player, is organ
izing a baseball club to play at the var
ious towns on the march. The Sacra
mento division announced that they
would walk no further and would have a
train. The Rock Island officials printed
circular and distributed it throughout
the camp, saying if the army captured a
train that the track would be obstructed
and the usual danger signals displayed,
and they would proceed at their peril.
Kelly was highly incensed at the action
of the company.
General Fry reached Indianapolis
with his command on the train they
seized at Brazil.
Gavin's 215 commonwealers were
ordered out of .Washington Court House,
, by the mayor and sheriff, and are
now marching to Columbus. They ex
pected to pass the night at Mount
Sterling.
The Oklafcaina territory outfit has at
last reached El Reno. At that place
yesterday and the day before 700 men
were organized to move on Washington.
The industrial army at Tacoma is now
six miles out of town. There is a great
deal of grumbling over the scant com
missary, and one of the captains has
been suspended for getting drunk on
army funds.
Dauphin's brigade of the industrial
army lingers' at topokane, toping tor
something to turn up. The connty and
city authorities have positively refused
to feed them or secure transportation,
and they depend for supplies upon the
charity of individuals, and that is rapidly
waning.
Calvin and his four captains at Wash
ington, Ohio, have deserted their in
dustrial army, disavowing all responsi
bility with that body. The men are
camped two miles east of there waiting
for the Baltimore train, which they pro
pose to capture.
A new industrial army started on the
march at Spring Valley. 111., and before
it reaches its destination, the outlook is
that it will be larger than all the com
monweal and industrials ot Coxey and
Kelly put together. They are princi
pally miners out of employment, and
will number 3,000 men.
A Coxey army is organizing in the
Cceur d'Alene mining district.

Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of
last week were three of the warmest days
of this spring.
Fruit trees of many kinds are loaded
with bloom. The prospects are we will
have a plentiful supply of fruit this year,
unless we should have late frosts.
Last night we had a warm rain that
lasted until almost morning, causing
withering vegetation to rear their droop
ing heads in an ecstacy of gladness, for
they were very much in need of a good
shower bath. Although it has been such
a short time since our hills were so very
wet, there did not seem a possibility
they would ever.need water ' again, but
we welcomed this shower as a thing
much needed.
Reports from John Day river are that it
is once more filling its banks to over'
flowing.
D. B. Kelly of Oakland, Cal., and his
son Ed Kelly, passed through town one
day last week,, on their way to their
ranch in' Summit Prairie. Ed. Kelly
has been caring for bis father.s interests
in that place for a number of years, but
I believe Ben Kelley means to transfer
the care and interest to his younger son,
Fred. Ed Kelly and wife will move to
Oakland where they will make their
future home. " .'
Mr. Roberts, who has been interested
in buying and marketing" beef from Shoo
Fly, suddenly found it to his interest
to seek a more ' agreeable chme. After

I see by "the Living Issue" of John
Day, the fossil remains of a mammoth
mastedon baa been, found about one
mile from the John Day river and near
four miles from John Day city. Although
the bead and tusks were so badly de
composed that it crumbled on exposure.
they took a measurement thaf shows the
enormous size of the animal in life,
The head. "measured 34 inches wide and
46 Inches high from face of teeth to ex
treme top of head." The trunk at the
largest point measured 26 inches in
circumference and 21 ' inches at the
smallest point, and ia hollow. The jaw
bone measured 15 inches long and one
side tooth measured 8x4 inches in dia
meter and 19-inches in circumference,
There is no brain cavity other than a
porous Honey-comb bone throughout the
head, the bone showing that the tusks
were attached to the npper part of the
head, is 8 till solid,. The head measured
38 inches from back to front. But one
shoulder , blade was found, which
measured 41 inches in length, one shin
bone 48 inches in length in very good
condition. Shoulder blade joint meas
ured inches. The tail bone was 15
inches long, and the first joint of the
tail measured 8 inches in diameter,
The hip bone was almost perfect and
- measured just 62 inches from point to
point. This find gives us further evidence

the recent efforts of a charitable
woman to carry consolation and com
fort in the houses of ' the distressed in
New York, a crooked old woman was
found who resisted all importunities
that she had anything for which to be
thankful. One mercy and .another
were suggested to her as reasons why
she should at least express herself as
having something for which to be
grateful. All these she promptly de
clined. Finally, as the visitor was
about to give up the search, the old
Woman said: "Yes, there is wan thing
that I forgot. I've got wan thing for to
