to have been a brunette, or dark compicx- ‘

had such infinite power of compression
that he could put enough into his lil min-

keep all the followingageshusy in thought
and action. No one but a Christ could af-
fordtoprey or preach as short as that,
but he meant to teach or compression.

would remain encumped here. till the re
turn of (Josey from New York, but. at a
late hour Browne announced positively
that the start would be made this fore—
noon. Owing to the lost lime, the original
route of the army via lildgevllle and lie-

changed.
The commonwrai will march direct
down the National pike after leaving
Frederick, thereby saving l7 miles. Why
the other road was ever selected cannot
be understood, as it makes a long detour
through a not particularly attractive coun-
try and touches no more large tow us than
are on the pike. To such a question
Browne merely replies that it was done to
use up time. His ultimate decision as to
the road, he says. will be determined by
important news he is expecting. This is
supposed to mean news of recruits sent
out by ('olonei Redstone from Washing-
ton to join the army. .
The road by the National pike will
throw the burden of entertaining the army
on l'rbana, i‘larksburg, Middletnwu and
iiaiihersburg and relieve the other towns
that have been uneasily awaiting the corn-
ing of the coniuionweal. ~
it is possible that after real-hing lim‘k‘
ville there will be a further change of
route, the army going south through the
little settlement of Potomac and marching
into Washington from the west by way of
the (‘onduit road.

Kelly's Indra-trials Move.
NLUIA, is., April 23. «Kelly and his ill-
duelriai army made their first day‘s march
from Council Bluffs here and went into
camp in a grove just cast of tors-n. The
entry into Neola was a triumphant marl-h
Almost every man, woman and child of
the 100 inhabitants went out to greet the
army. Flags were horns, and the cheers
were lusty as the 1,000 men iffllllpt‘il down
the town's main street to the more or less
musical strains of two country bands.
The stores and vacant buildings of this
place were thrown wide open, and the
weary men were offered all available shel-
fer.
Hundreds of people had gone out from
(‘onncil lilufl's and (llnaha to see the bi»
ginning of the long overland march. and
shelf dozen wagons heavily huh-n with
provisions awaited the moving of ihocnl
umn.
From every farm flags were flying, and
at every crossroads lines of decorated wag-
ons awaited the army. The little town of
Underworld was reached about noon, and
a sumptuous repeat was provided by the
villagers. When the meal was over and
the impromtu speeches done, the march
was resumed amid the energetic cheering
of the crowd ihst was gathered.
On every hand the deepest. sympathy for
Kelly and his men was expressed, and
farmers and townsmen were eager to sup
plythe wants of the commonwealers. They
are with Kelly to a man and condemn the
railroads for refusing transportation for
the army.
As an lrcnicai expression of the feeling
regarding the calling out of the lows
militia the eitiuns formed a company of
little boys and girls to greet the advent of
the army, the hedges and barium of the

the Boston delegation of the unemployed
for Washington, where they hope to join
Corey's army and assist in the appeal to
congress. By the time Morrison 1. Swift
stepped onto the improvised platform there
were 25.41110 persons present, and soon after
the meeting got into working order fully
85,000 was gathered around the bend
stand.
The crowd was a good natured, hustling
one and did not seem to he at all impressed
with the occasion or to be in sympathy
with the movement, but had come simply
to have and make fun. At no time was

be taller disorderly or riotous conduct.
Morrison l. Swift, the leader of the
movement, was the chairman and opened
the met-ting, but not having a very power-
ful voice he could not be heard at a great
distance. ‘
After standing his harsnmle sometim-
the crowd began 'to surge forward, and
those in front of the speaker were forced
onto the small platform, which succumbed
to the strain and was broken to fragments.
The kiwnker was thrown against the sap—
ling fence that surrounds the band stand.
Swift then took his position on the band
stand, which is generally forbidden to the
speakers on the l‘ommun, and dellmred a
characteristic speech, denouncing the
wealthy, the rnouopoilsts and everybody
in general that did not sympathize with
the Sinilflllfii platform.
After the meeting had been in progress
some time and the tactics of the crowd
seemed to be getting the upper hand of the
promoters of it word was sent to the police
headquarters. and a platoon of 35 extra
men made their appearance among the
crowd and had the effect of stopping all
horas play. During the meeting Mr. Swift
submitted a letter to he sent to President
Cleveland. which was adopted by is “yes"
away.
At this point. there was a conference be
tween the lenders while one of thorn was
speaking, and as a result those'who have
enrolled themselves in the delegation were
told to slip away quietly and meet at Rox—
hury crossing. “here Major féi‘iu‘i'fll Fitz-
gerald would meet them and march to
Dedhum, where they intended to stop.
Theimmenac crowd did not know what
had been decided own and made a break
for Tl’i'iliniili street. when: they expected
the men to press. They waited in vain,
however, as an hour after the order was
given 4:» men. liriulrd by leader Fitzger-
