MYSTICAL BROTHERHOOD.
Initiating a Brother Iuto the iljiterl
ous Order.
It "was in Madison some years ago,
and my xecollection of that trip (I
Was then a "drummer") make? me
shudder, I had been round for about
two days and made good sales, and
had also made the acquaintance of
some good fellows (as 1 thought) in
the central part of town. I waa with
a party at the Central Hotel, talk
ing and joking when one of them
said to me:
You'd bettor remain to-night and
join our beloved order the Slystical
Brotherhood. It'll be a great benefit
tp .you in your travels. It's the best
society in the state and you can
make friends by being known as a
"member in ten minutes after you stop
atsa city or a Tillage.
I, like a sucker, took the cork un
der, and stayed and joiued.
The mysterious brotherhood then
met in a hall at the ioteL Charley
Bronson kept a saloon below the
lodge room. " There were about twenty-five
members of the lodge, and
most of them were present to assist
in my initiation. The officers were a
high mogul, second high mogul, sec
retary and treasurer. Inside and out
side sentinelsand a comet with three
assistants. I was received at the
ante-room by a masked guard. 1
heard a gram voice inside say:
"Is there any person in waiting to
be initiated into our beloved order?"
Another said:
"There is one hard customer, my
lord who has deposited the blunt ac
cording to the requirements of our
Bacred order."
A bell tapped, and the whole order
inside yelled "Amen! Amen!"
I was led in. The whole assembly
were in long gowns, reaching to their
feet, of various colors, and had their
faces masked. I was blindfolded,
and led three times around the room,
while they were all saying:
"Should you feel inclined to cenbure
Faults you may in others view.
Ask your own heart ere you venture
If it has not -failings too!"
The bell tapped and I was halted
before the nigh MoguL Near him
stood the comit and three aids with
stuffed clubs three feet long. I was
sworn to answer all questions truth
fully and. keep the secrets of the order.
Every time I failed to answer a ques
tion immediately a stuffed club took
me an awful belt "far below the belt"
in the rear. The following questions
were put and answered:
High Mogul "Are you a married
man?"
Candidate "Yes."
High MdguL.--"How many children
have you? State their ages, sex and
complexions."
Before I had answered half I was
fairly lifted by the stuffed clubs.
High Mogul "Are you in the habit
of running around nights?"
I answered "No" right quickly,
though it was not exactly the truth,
to escape the clubs.
The devils had a big plank in the
room rigged by trestles, with one end
seven feet high. Near the center of
this "plank was a hinge that worked
with a trigger, but I knew nothing of
this until later in the proceeding. I
heard all the while water running, as
if the Teservoir was being emptied.
The'bell tapped and I was marched
arouna again. ine ureas ouogui
asked:
"How much water is there in the
tank?"
The answer was, "Four feet"
The Mogul said:
"Let it be deeper."
Then he asked me:
"Have you any money, watches,
notes, papers, rings and precious
stones that will be damaged by
water?"
"I said, "No."
'He then sang' eut:
"How much water is in the tank?"
"Six feet," was the answer.
Grand Mogul "Let it bo deeper."
I was then led to the plank and
compelled slowly to ascend it I had
reached the end of it and was on
my knees when the Mogul called out
again:
"How much water is in the tank
now?"
The answer came, "Nine feet"
The bell tapped the end of the plank
flopped down, and I went headlong
but not into a tank of water. I was
caught in a large piece of stout can
vass, supplied with hand holes around
The edges and corners, and managed
by eight or ten stout leiiows. jno
sooner had I struck the canvass than
I was tossed in the air several times.
They shouted at every toss, "once
more," till finally I struck the ceiling,
then they quit The bell tapped, and
I was walked up to a coffin with tin
gutters around it, and in the gutters
were various colored lights. In the
coffin was one of the members, paint
ed" up in as ghastly colors as possible,
aridthe fellow representing the corpse
had his mouth full of flour. I didn't
know it of course, till they made me
take another oath and stoop to kiss
'the corpse. The cuss blew fully a
-teaspoonful of flour in my face and
eyes. When I had cleaned and wiped
off my countenance the Mysterious
brotherhood all came around to me
io shake hands. I shook, of course,
b$ I clearly felt that if I. had two
.six .shooters the population of Madi-
jion would have been reduced to the
extent of twelve. Madison Demo

At a station in Montana the other
day a3oston girl stuck her head out
Tof a Northern Pacific car and ex
claimed: "The bewildewing womance
which cwowns this transcendental
ioenewy with such indesewjb
sble fascination and tinges its
,eewy featuh with such overpow'ing
intewest quite bweaksmeupl" And
a number of members of the local
vigilance committee standing on the
platform looked grimly into eaoh
other's faces and muttered: "Oh! if
5t was only a man!" Bismarck Tri

The Proposed World Fair.
San Fkaxcisco, Feb. 19. Five
thousand petitions with the following
heading will be sent out this week, in
accordance with the suggestion of
General Miller, in order to procure
signatures to forward to Washington-
To 4he senators and representatives
of the United States, in congress as
sembled: The people composing the
states and territories of the Pacific
coast have the honor very respect
fully to represent to jour honorable
bodies that it is their desire to hold
a world's fair in San Francisco in
1887. As evidencing the earnestness
of this movement, individual sub
scriptions have or will be made to
make an amount of 850,000, with
assurance of additional subscriptions
from the state and municipal govern
ments. In order that the expression
may be made national and interna
tional in character, we respectfully
suggest to the congres3 of the United
States the propriety of extending to
the location interested its aid. A
liberal donation in this respectwill
prove" of immense advantage to the
coast, in promoting its commercial
and material advancement and bring
ing this now almost unknown country,
with its varied resources aud unde
veloped capacities, to a better knowl
edge of the world. Here the com
merce of continents may be exchanged
and here established a better under
standing between the people of di
verse civilizations. It will also estab
lish a precedent by the government in
aid of such national undertakings in
different parts of our country, as may
be profitably followed, and impart a
solution of the problem of the
disbursement of our surplus
money. In furtherance of
this desire the people of the Pa
cific coast most respectfully ask that
congress appropriate for the purpose
of a world s fair in San Francisco in
1887 the sum of $200,000, to be dis
bursed under authority of the gov
ernor of the state, and an executive
committee now already constituted
under that authority, and with such
considerations as congress may deem
necessary in the premises.
How a 3Ian Made $200,000 in One Day.
"Gould and Sage and those big
bugs think they are mighty smart on
speculating," said a talkative old
gentleman from Jne, .Fa. ".But I'll
wager none of 'em ever did a cuter
thing than our Bill Scott did about
five vears ago of course vou've heard
of Bill Hon. William L. Scott, big
railroad and iron man? Well, he had
never been in any Wall street deals
up to that time, had just attended
strictly to business and let others do
the gambling. One day a f riendgave
him a pointer. Bill believed in it,
went in heavy and quit 200,000 win
ner. .Up in Erie we point out to
strangers the Scott block hand
somest building in town and te 1
'em the money that built it was made
in one day. Fact, too, Scott made
his deal in a single day and then quit,
saying he knew when he had enough
and that he was bound to be one man
to quit ahead of Wall street Ch icago

An Indianapolis paper reports
these remarks of an old colored man
to his little grandson, who was dib-'
posed to laugh at the appearauce of a '
procession of veterans passing by:
"Don't yer laff at dom old soldier
mens, son, da don't look so mighty
fine now, but when yer old grand
daddy fust saw 'em comin' down yan
der in South Calinada looked mighty
like angels ob de Lord. Da don t
step so spry and spruce as da used to,
but da brought d'liberance to me
and mine. Don't do it agin, son." .
A Persian statesman reports a!
rumor current throughout central
Asia th.it the Kussians would bring
warlike tribes into the rich plains of
India as soon as England is in diffi
culty, and that this did more to cause
the submission of the Turcomans '
than the ability of the Russian gen-1
erals. He bxvb that Russia is using '
Afghans as an advance guard.
