The Overland Trip of the Oolored Troops to Kearney, Nob Corresponcence of the Bx Camp of the 9th United States cavalry, in the field, Kearney, Neb., June 30, 1885: Nine troops of the reglment under Col. Hatch are now in camp at thls point, arriving on the 27th after a march of nearly 400 miles across the state of Kansas and Nebraska from our initial poiut, camp on Chilocco creek, I. T. Camy in the torritory was broken May 20th and the line of march tak- en up to our new statlon In the department of tho Platt. The column moved north thtough Kaneas, pasalng through the towns of Arkansas City, Winfield, El Dorado, Elorence, and Junction Oity, in that state, and arrived at Fort Riley June 8, A short stop was here made to refit the command, when the march was resumed by battallons northward by the way cf Olyde Kangas, and Hastings, Nebraske, to Kearney, Neb.nukn, reaching the latter place June 27. The most intense carloslty was mavifested by the citizens of the raral towns en route to view the strange spe. tacle of colored moldlers. Many de. clared that they had no ides that there were colored roldiers in the United States army. No sooner were the tents run up than an Immense throng of men, women, and children, represonting the rural eocial: strata, flocked around and perambulated the camp in every directlon. The astonish. ment of the honest granger was often shown In that pertinaceous and independ- ent manner 80 eminently characteristic of the groat American nation. Tents were boldly Invaded; horaes, arms, equip- ments, and even our persons and besring subjected to the most minute and critical examination by the sovereign people. Throngs of angular females, spectacies on noze and note book in hand, surrounded the burly cooks at thelr Improvised kitchens, and peered long and lnqulsl- tively into the bolling camp kettles in order to discover on what meat oumr soldiers subsiated. Here a bevy of falr damsels passed before the bnllvnhnped tents, peering cautiously within a% the groups of goldiers cleaning arms, playing cards or welting letters; then another throng closely encircled some loud- tongued warrior as he related blood- curdling yarns of his-herolc deeds on the field of battle. Nearly every com- pany s bleesed with cne of these windy heroes, whose prowess in lying would win him a medal in & con- gress of liars, Ocoaslonally an_inquisi- tive damsel pulling gpen a closed tent to look within would be rewarded with glimpee of some brawny cavalrymen in- dulgingIna bath., One experienco of this kind was generally sufficient. The inspection and drilling of the troops always drew a great crowd so tightly wedged upon the lines In some instances as to render the manipalation of the armsin the manual extremely diflicult, Graduslly the boys bs 9 accustomed to this constant scruting and like Louis the Fourteenth calmly devoured their meals in public wllh the dignity becom- ing a state occasion, while moba of patri- otlc cltizens gazed admiringly down their throats until the solemn ceremony was completed. This pleasing characterlstic of the great people dlsappeared as wo neared the Nebraska llne, and at the beautlful towns of Hastings and Kearney, in this state, we were most agreeably surprised by beholding generous and intolligent people, whose every action showed the presence of refinement and culture, of hoepltality es broad as their boundless plalns was a striking trait not the lesst appreciated by the boys, and many of'them have determined to cast their lota here when Uncle 8am’s contract 1s filled. “AFrICus,” INKLINGS FROM IRVINGTON A New School House to be Erected— Breezy Little Biffs from “ Buckeye,"” To the Iditor of the Dz, InviNaron, Neb., July 4. —The votera of this echool district have resolved to erect a new school house of much larger dimenslon and better arranged than the old one.

ADDITIONAL LOCAL, CLUBS WIN. Some Painters Abont Sucoessfal Organ- izations of Business Men, Ehall Conuncil Bluffs Try 1t? In his recent vislt to Wisconsin cittes, the Bee man found that there was there grent success and popularity attached to the merchants’ clubs, Such an Instita tlon was some time ago given an iaciplent otart here, but failed to reach a complete organization for some reason now forgot- ton. A vialt to one of these club rooms rorves to glve one a very good idea of what all of them are. Take one at Fond da Lac for Instance. There soveral years ago the merchants jolned together to the number of one hundwad for the purposes of forming a c'ub, each ono paying $10 s entrance foo, and agreeing to pay a lke amount each year for the keeplng up of expenses, Three rooms on the second floor of one of the most centrally losated bulldings in the city were secured and fitted up In veryattrac.ive and convenisnt manner. One largs room serves the pur- poses of a parlor, and s handsomaly far- nished, carpeted andadorned, soastomake a fis muuplluu room for any dignltaries who should chancs to visit the city. Of courze the Bex man was showa into this parlor, but saw no splder, and got away with a'l of his wealth, as there was no gambling In or abont the place, and nothing to tempt the prohibitlonist. Be- sides this parlor was a large room, in which were tables and chairs, conven— fently and comfortably arranged for those who wanted to engage in a frlendly game of whist, euchre, chets or checkers, Stll another room was fitted up for bllliards and pool, there being one tablo of each, There was also a c'gar stand, and a janitor constantly in attendance cared for the rooms and attended to the wants end wlshes of the members. Here, as in other citles in the state where these club rooms are kept up, it s » favorite resort for the business men of the place, and if after the business of the dsy one wants to find anybody this is the most nstural place to look for blm, for alarge portion of the mem- barsdrop In at least, during some por- tlon of the evening. Here are not only amusemonts, and a furthering of soclal relations, but there is also many an en- torprise of great valuo to the city, which has its Inclplency is this Informal and happy gatherlng. The evening that the Bee man dropped In, there were, besides the soclal grouplng around the tables, several knots of citizona chatting over the prospect of the clty secoring the location of » new etate institution to be bullt for Indigent boys, Steps were there and then taken, in this informal gatnerlng, to offer the sta‘e a sultablo slte, free of coat, and the esrnestness cf the men and their apparent public spirit indlcated that the city would be a strong asplrant for the lucnlnn of the frstitu- tion. Aslde from the chll slde of this club there is also a reaching out and grasping onto many outside of the city limits. Not only are strangers visiting the city glven a chauce to meet the business men under the most favorable conditions and made to feel that he is welcome, but frequently there are visits from other clubs coming in a body from other citles to bave a friendly contest In whist, or to take partin a business men’s lunca, thus throwing the business men of differ- ent citles together in a heppy interming- ling of social courtesles and interchange of views and purposes. These mutual vleits of the clubs of the various citles |’ present many advantages, besldea that of the social slde. The fact that thesa clubrooms differ so greatly from the ordinary club room, causes many of the best citizans to join, for the name s not a mere covgr for all sorts of Bacchanalian indulgencies. With no drinking or gamtling, those who under ord(nary circumstances would have nothlng to do with apything baaring the name of “‘club room,” gladly joln these organizitions. The moralists who have watched the effect locally affirm that it provides a pleasant place fer men to spend a soclal hour, and robs the saloon of its attractions, It keeps ellve an organi{zition through which steps can be taken to bulld up the city, and its so- cial strength seems to keep the organiza- tlon alive and enthusiastic where in other places more formal organizations of busl- nezs men have gone to pleces. The expense of maining such an insti- tution hes surprised the members them- selves, for Insiead of being called on to pay the $10 aplece, each year, as at firet planned, it 1s found that the nom- Inal sums collected from those who use the billiard and pool tablee, and the profits of the cigar stand, are sufficlent to meet the ranning expenses of the club, Sach clubs are found In such cities as Oshkosh, Milwaukee and Appleton, and in faot the Badgers seem to make a suc- cess of them wherever tried. There isno trouble in securing a quorum for tho transaction of bueinees as is felt hers in the so-called board of trade. It matters not what evening a visitor chances to be in the clty, he cannot have any diflisult; In meeting a goodly number of the bfll{ ness men if he desires s0 to do, and if any matter arlaes of general interest and importance to the olty, it does not d |take forever, and one day more, to acquaint the business men with the fact, to get them Interested In taking cdon, The chlef danger is in the gement of such a clab, that it xml not descend unto the ordinary club,whic! 1s such a terror to the wives of the land, but in several of the Wisconsin clties they seem to have succeeded in provent- ingany euch demoralization, s ——— An Avocs telegram snnounces the kiillog by the cars of James Nolan, of Council Bluffs, while attempting to board a freight train, Mlild, soothirg and healing Is Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy.
