1 iiiuilo In the membership for the year , or 4,000
ilnco the session of the supreme lodge. There
ro now 31,000 In the 1'ythluu army.
i followlui : Is uu extract from u circular
upon the endowment rank Issued by the supreme
promo chancellor and ordered to bo road In
every lodge of the order :
"Since Its organization fourteen yonrs ngo
the endowment rank has paid to bonollcl.irlci
of deceased members nearly M.000,000 , and
during the past twelve months lins nddcd to
Its membership over 4,000 members , repre
senting $ ! i,000OuO of now endowment.
"Tho endowment rank \a \ now upon a sound
financial basis , and Is being managed by
business.men of recognized ability ana upon
sound business principles
"Tho object ol this circular I * to advlso cru
cially every member of the order of Knights
of 1'ythias thut the endowment rank Is the
only authorized Insurance ) or Indomnlty asso
ciation of the ordor.
"Tho supreme lodgohas repeatedly affirmed
this declaration , and at the last session rc-
nfllrmeu the statement by the adoption of the
report of a comtntUoo which bestowed upon
tlio Individual members of the order the
highest compliment In the gift of a legis
lative body when It declared that 'this ' supreme -
promo lodge only considers It necessary at
this time to call the attention of the mem
bers of the order belonging to or connected
with such associations or societies , to the Juris
prudence and law governing thU ordurai
above recited , and to declare that every mem
ber of the order m any way connected with
such associations or societies should sever
connection therewith without delay , unless
such associations or societies shall w'tblu ' a
reasonable time , not to exceed ono year , con
form their charters , constitutions , And laws
to the letter ana spirit of the laws and juris
prudence of the order so enacted and In
terpreted by this supreme lodge ; and
all grand and subordinate lodges
uro hereby prohibited from as
sisting , encouraging , approving , In
dorsing , supervising , or managing any such
organizations. ' As the date has been fixed
by the supreme lodgu as the limit of tlmo in
which nil unauthorized so-called 'Pythian
Life associations' should conform their or
ganic laxvs to the requirements of tno supreme
premo law , by the elimination from their re
spective titles or names of any word or words
having any reference whatever to the order
of Knights of Pythias , and in which nil loyal
members of the order are directed to sever
tholr connection with such associations unless
ttio supreme law shall within such tlmo have
been compiled with , I deem it only
necessary to call the attention of
Knights of Pythias to the legisla
tion of the supreme ledge , and to oxpcoss the
confident belief that all loyal members of the
order who are now members of any so-called
'Pythian llfo associations' will , before July
17 , 13I ! ) , withdraw from membership In all
such unauthorized associations , atid that no
loyal member nf the order will become a
member of , assist , encourage , countenance or
recognize any such associations unless within
the tlmo named , the requirements of supreme
law , which ovary Knlgtit of Pythias Is under
obligation to respect , shall huvo boon fully
compiled with. "

The ofllcors and soldlnrs heard with de
light the announcement of the graduation at
the Infantry anu cavalry school , Fort Leaven -
on worth of second Lieutenant William M.
Wright , second Infantry of this post. The
Kansas City Times , speaking of the scene
when the graduates wore called to
receive their diplomas says :
"Tho roll of the remaining members of the
class was then called in alphabetical order
and as the members stopped forward they
were given their diplomas and received a
storm of applause from the audience ; but
the ono who carried everything by storm was
Lieutenant > V. M. Wright , bocond Infantry.
The audience went fairly wild In its applause
as ho received his sheepskin. Ho is un
doubtedly the popular man In the present
class. " Lieutenant Wright went east imme
diately after the exorcises , where , on the
24th lust. , ho was married to Miss Marjorie
Jorauld of Niagara Falls , N. Y.
The retirement of Colonel Joshua Fletcher
while under sentence of court-martial , mod-
Hied by the president , has boon the topic of
conversation "this week. It is generally
looked upon as settling a disgraceful affair
and relieving the Second regiment of a
stigma which was cast upon it by an ofllcer
of yonrs and experience. The remitting of
the nonnlty , however , has not boon favorably
commented upon , although the penalty was
moro of a picnic than a punishment. There
was notja member In the regiment who would
not , barring tlio disgrace attaching , gladly
welcomed such a sentence.
Fort Wusliakie.
The post Is garrisoned by companies F and
I Eighth regiment of infantry and troop B of
the Sixth cavalry. Major Edgar U. Kellogg
of the oluhth is in command of .tho garrison
and Is present with his charming wife and
daughters.
I company is composed of Shoahono and
Arapahoe Indians and is sixty strong. Cap
tain P. H. Uny commands the men and hav
ing spent many years of his llfo on the fron
tier and among Indians , understands them
thoroughly. He reads thorn like a book and
manages them In good stylo. Later , I will
tell you more about this company of redskins
who were secured armed , equipped , and who
are now being managed so satisfactorily by
their chief Captain Ray.
Company F Is in charge of Captain \V. L
Pitcher , ono of our now captains. Ho comes
h'oro from Rosebud agonoy whore ho spent
last winter in the campaign against the
Sioux. From his accounts of the hardships
endured , the winter was very tough Indeod.
The captain is an enthusiast In rifle shooting
and as 11 is now the season for rillo practice ,
he and F company are putting In alargo
amount of time on' the excellent riflq ranp-e
hnro , working for the grade of sharpshooters.
May they have every success.
Troop B , Sixth cavalry , loft Casper , Wyo. ,
a few days since and are now on the march
between that point and this post. They are
expected here in about live days. The com
mander of the troop is Captain William
Balrd , an excellent young ofllcer and a thor
ough cavalryman In every sonso. Ho has no
oftlcors with him. The troop comes from
Washington , D. C. , where it had boon sta
tioned for the past four years.
The adjutant here is Lieutenant Trout ,
Ninth cavalry , who , it is exported , will bo
transferred to the Sixth cavalry very shortly.
Our surgeon Is Dr. Mason , who finds the
plnco so unpleasantly healthy that , to kill
tlmo , ho has turned tils attention to books.
Our trader is Mr. J. 1C. Mooro. Without
doubt ho has ono of the best , establishments
of the kind on the frontier. Ills stock of
general merchandise Is simply immense. It
will pay those making the trip from Lander
to the Yellowstone national park to call on
him when they como to fit out. They can
find everything that a frontier man wants ,
from the best cowboy saddle to a tin coffco
oup.
