1 o HUERYING HOMEWARD. The Great Conclave of Knights Templars at St. Louis Gams to an End Yesterday. At the Olosinsr Business Session "Washing ton Was Selected for the Next Place of Meeting. The Accidental Death of an Illinois Frater tUo Sole Regrettable Affair. Closing Business Transacted by the Odd Fellow* at the Boston Council. The KiiightK Templata. St. Louis, Sept. 24.— The Knights Templars grand encampment was slow in meeting this .noniing. At the beginning of the session, the most eminent grand master made the following appointments: Sir Knijrkit the Rev. John WeDster, of New York, very eminent prand prelate; Sir Knight John R. Parsons, of Missouri, very eminent grand standard-bearer; Sir Knitrht Nicholas Van Slick, of Rhode Island, very eminent grand sword-bearer; Sir Knight Nicholas P. Ruckle, of Indiana, very eminent grand warden; Sir Knight Edwin F. Warreu, of Ne braska, very eminent grand captain of the guard. The installation of officers and report of the committee on time and place of holding the next grand encampment were post poned. The report of the committee on grievances and appeals was discussed, but definite action was deferred. THE KFI'OHT OX KITUAIj was taken tip, and was still under discus sion at 1:30, when a recess was taken until :> o'clock. The triennial committee of the Order of (be Eastern Star has held three sessions, at which formal reports of the officers wen made and committees ap pointed. This morning department reports were received and referred, and anadjourn ment taken to afternoon. The afternoon m of the grand encampment brought the business ot the body to a close. On re tssembliug after dinner, the discussiou of the ritual, which had consumed most of the morning session, was resumed, and occu pied the attention of the encampment a large share of the afternoon. The cele brated "Michigan question" was decided , the actual of the state commandery being ■ unanimously sustained. After the ritual was disposed of the appointive officers, whose selection was announced t<> day in these dispatches, were installed, and the time and place for holding the next biennial conclave came up. Washington, Louisville and Cincinnati were the leading applicants tor the honor of entertaining the knights, and, after considerable delibera tion, WASHINGTON WAS FIXED UPON as the place, and the second week in Octo ber. ISS9, as the time. This was the last b.:>iness before the encampment, and at its conclusion linal adjournment was taken. To-night the hotels and boarding houses were rapidly emptied of Knights and their friends, and the streets, except along the routes to the depot and the steamboat landings, were deserted, as compared with the last few days. Every train departing was packed to its utmost capacity, and spe cial trains were run in every direction, so that by the time they had gone, fully nine tenths of the visiting Knights were en route to their homes. The only public events of the evening were the parade of the Flambeau battalion and a few minor recep tions by local cominanderies. A KXIGHT KILLED. A. Strong, of Napierville, 111., a Knight Templar, in attendance upon the conclave in this city, was killed this morning by be ing run over by a passenger train at Chel tenham, near this city. lie had been visit ing friends at the latter place and intended to return home this evening. He attempted to board the train as it was moving out of the depot but missed his tooting, fell under the wheels and was instantly killed. The triennial committee took charge of the re mains and will furnish an escort to convey them to the deceaseds home. THE O»D FELLOWS, The Grand l.odse Will Hold its Next irieetins: at Columbus. Boston, Mass., Sept. 24. — The sover eign grand lodge of Odd Fellows continued its session at 9 o'clock this morning, with Grand Sire Garey in the chair. Jurisdic tions were called for new business. The committee on state of order reported that it would be inexpedient to establish a home for the orphans of Odd Fellows under the cure <>i the sovereign erand lodge. The re ports wore adopted. The judiciary com mittee approved of the decision of the grand sire, that lodges under immediate jurisdiction must meet once every week, and this rule holds good in all cases where a different rule has not been pre scribed by the state grand lodge. The petition of T. B. Robinson, of Templar Lodge, Xo. 17, of California, be insr a question of benefits, and which has been before the Sovereign Grand lodge tor six fears past, was referred to the Grand lodgp of California.

The Dominations were Columbus, 0., and Wash ington, 1). C. On the sixth ballot this aft ernoon it was decided to hold the next su pretae lodge at Columbus, O. There were Beven competitors, Chicago standing next to Columbus. STILLWATEU K£\VS. A Man falls Forty Feet aud is Still Alive. Charles Maynard, an engineer residing at Kt. Paul, who stopped at the Sawyer house on ThursJay night, fell from a fourth story window and wa3 seriously Injured. Maynard cays he went to his room.

He fell from a win dow opening in the court and sustained a fracture of the left leg near the thigh, and was bruised in different parts of the body. In falling he struck against the side of the building several times, attracting several young men who wore in ihe saloon, who car ried him inside, summoned a physician and eared for him during the night. Maynard says he clutched at the window and caught a slight hold on the groove in the casing aud tried to pull himself up, but was unable to do so, and fell, turning before he struck the ground. The distance is forty feet. May nard is a locomotive engineer by trade and had been running a stationary engine at the boom during the summer.

Stewart was present and at tracted considerable attention. She wore black cobweb lace, heavily bearded with little tufts of black beads, and under this long gown was a princess of corn-colored satin. Her slippers were of similar com bination, her gloves were black, and her fan, parasol and bonnet were poems of rich white lace. The jewels she wore were strikingly handsome. The eardrops danced lite a coil of rainbow. At THE ST. PAUL DAILY GLOBE, SATURDAY MOR3 ING. SEPTEMBEK 25, 1836. -TWELVE PAGES. her throat . was a bar silver set with half a dozen big brilliants, and the cross at her corsage was a design one rarely sees. It measured three and one-half iuches in length and consisted of perhaps sixteen diamonds, each as broad as a silver dime, with spaces of that diameter between. The stones were set in a bar of Venetian gold, magnificently carved in hair lines, and to any ordinary wasa-worker would have been a fortune. She had sev eral bracelets of rare jewels, the most unique being a string of diamonds, from which were pendant solitaires of ruby, cat's eye, opal, topaz, turquois and pearl, each forming a medalion in a bed of small dia inonds. WEALTHY EX-CONFEDERATES. How Some Prominent Southerner* - Hare Prospered Since the War. Philadelphia Times. Gen. Marcus J. Wright, chief of the Confederate records office, is preparing a biographical work in which the fortunes of the ex-Confederate generals will be traced up to date. According to the information collected by him, a good many of them. Southern leaders who found themselves penniless after the war. have carved out new fortunes for themselves, some of them even ranking among the millionaires, Gen. Mahone, of Virginia, is the richest of them. After the surrender at Appomattox he owned a horse, suiue war trappings and his box of surveying instruments which he ha 9 before the war used as a civil engineer. In less than a week after the last gun had been tired he was employed by the Orange & Alexandria railroad at civil engineering. He bought stock with the savings of his salary, sold it opportunely, invested in other Virginia railroads, and in a few years retired from the civil enginearing to take the position of vice-president of the Dan ville road. From that position he gradu ated to the presidency of the Norlolk <fc Tennessee road. After ten years had passed he was the railroad prince of Vir ginia, and is now a millionaire. His for tune is estimated at 15. 000. 000, and he is adding to it daily by shrewd investings. Senator Mahone is one of the very few men who have never lost in any enterprise undertaken. Whatever he touches seems to turn to gold. He is sometimes called the Virginia "Ed Stokes" for this reason. The two senators from Louisiana. Gibson and Eustis, rank next to Mahone in wealth. Gibson was a Confederate general and served throughout the war. At its close he had several hundred acres of land which had not been tilled for four years, and had a musty law office in New Orleans which he had not entered since his brigade was ordered to the front. With borrowed money he set to work planting, and at the same time began once more the practice of his profession. Now, after the lapse of twenty years, he ranks among the wealthiest planters in Louisiana, is at the head of the bar in New Orleans and is worth consider ably over a half million of dollars. This will be increased eventually to a million or more, as his wife will come into a large for tune at the death of her mother, Mrs. Mont gomery. Nearly as wealthy as the foregoing is Gen. Brown, of Tennessee, twice governor of that state since the war and now the re ceiver of the Texas Pacific railroad. Gen. Brown, like so many of his associates, took to civil engineering and railroading when he laid down his arms. After constructing several small roads in Tennessee he entered the service of the Texas Pacific at a salary of 520,000 a year and has his headquarters at Dallas. As a result of his railroad ad ventures he is worth hearly 5i, 000, 000 and is increasing his fortune yearly. After the surrender he was as penniless as Gen. Ma hone, but, unlike Mahoue, he did not lie back and complain. His first surveying job brought him $15 a week, but in a year thereafter he was receiving $5,000 a year as president of the Nashville railroad. Gen. Kosser, of the Northern Virginia cavalry, now living in retirement at Charlottesville, has an estate valued at 5700.000. He made it all since the war and at railroad ing. After surveying for several years in Western states, he became connected with the Northern Pacific railroad and was elected its vice-president eight years ago. His estate is almost adjoining the old home stead of Thomas Jefferson, at Monticello, and is generally conceded to be the finest in Virginia. Gen. Polignac who served in the West ern Tennessee arm is worth not far from a million. He is the French soldier who. at the outbreak of the war. came to this country and offered his sword to the Con federate cause. Though he gained no especial distinction in the field, he fought bravely till 1805. Gen. Gordon, of Georgia, made a for tune since the war. but lost it recently through injudicious speculation. Five years ago he was a millionaire: to-day he is literally not worth a dollar. Gen. John ston, United States railtoad commissioner, has a snug fortune, and a few other ex- Confederate generals are worth a hundred thousand or more— all made after laying down their arms. ACCUSTOM Xl» TO ABI'SE. A Base Ball Umpire Not Afraid of Being Bulldozed. Hartford Post. "Can't you get out of my way, you awk ward ignoramus?" said an excited indi vidual to a quiet-looking man on the depot platform. •"Perhaps so," said the quiet man, with out budging an inch. "You're an impudent fellow, anyhow. Ain"t you going to move, you rascal?" "No. sir; not just yet" "I'll knock you down, you miserable whelp, you good-for-nothing scamp, you — you — hog." "Go right on, sir. Don't mind me." said the quiet man. "I'm used to it. I've been bathing in the sunlight of just such expressions all summer." "Who are you, sir, anyhow?" "Me? I'ma base ball umpire." Is Short Hair Injurious? London Truth. A new tenor of the toilet has been sprung upon vs — this time, strange to state, not by the Lancet. The alarm is raised on the question of the length at which the human hair should be worn. Some uncom fortable theorist has. it seems, lOggMted that as the hair is a cond uctor of electricity to the brain, it is absolutely necessary — if a general softening of that organ on the part of the rising male generation is to be avoided — for the practice of indulging in a "close crop" to be discontinuep. Forthwith the "anxious father"' unbosoms himself in the daily press, rendered sympathetic by the advent of the dull season, aud demands to know whether the capillary alarmist is a true prophet. Without venturing an opinion on so vital a poiut, one cannot but reflect that there are mauy brains into which the infusion of some amount of mo tive force, electrical or otherwise, would be anything but a misfortnne. It is a pity, though, that the new theory was not braached some five or six years ago, during the height of the "esthetic craze," for it would certainly have made many converts to the style of hairdressing cultivated by Oscar Wilde before that apostle of culture sacrificed his own locks in deference to "the tyrant custom." O>F LIFE. Her white little band is resting On the arm that held it of old, And he thinks it is only the night breeze That makes it so soft and cold. Her eyes into his are gazing — Ever, ever so faithful to him — And he thinks it the silvery moonlight That makes them so strange and dim. Her pretty face turns toward him; Ah, -when did her face turn away? And he thinks it the silvery moonlight That makes It so faint and gray. Oh. spirit that lingers and falters, Take courage and whisper "Good-by," A life? — why a life Is nothing When millions each minute die. With millions each mlnuto dying. What matters one life or death? One fragile and tender existence? One tremulous passing breath? A life? Why a life is nothing! What matters tho" oue buru dim? Ala* for the folly of reason — One life is the world to him ! FIRST LOVE HEGAINED. Fact stranger than fiction was never better exemplified than in a romance of real life just brought to light in St. Louis, says the Globe- Democrat. In the old town ot Alexandria, Va., resided one George SnvUer, a gay and well-dressed young man of 19. In the same city lived Miss Lavinu Mason, a beautiful young lady of not quite 10. The parents of the young people were well to do. Young Snyder and Miss Ma son were in each other's company a great deal, at all the country festivities, and ap peared to be devoted friends. The friend ship soon ripened into love, and the town was soon filled with rumors of the proba ble nuptials of the happy young pair. The young lady's parents finally heard of the rumor and immediately entered a strong objection to the proceedings. The young lady, as all young ladies do who are crossed by cruel parents in their love affairs, vowed eternal affection for and un dying faith iv her lover, and would marry George Snyder or no one. Young Snydor was forbidden" the house, and the usual stolen meetings followed, first once, then twice ami three times a week, until finally the young lady's parents learned of the clandestine meetings, interfered and put a summary stop to them. The young people, thus ruthlessly torn from each other's company, pined, fretted and prayed for a sight of the object of their affections, and, as is the usual termination Of love balked by the interference of the parents, determined to run away and get married, and early one morning embarked upon a steamer for Georgetown, D. C, from which place they proceedtd to Wash ington, where they were united in marriage. Alter the ceremony had been performed they returned to Alexandria and to the home of the bride's parents, and quietly in formed the old people thst they were one. The usual storm was followed by the also usual forgiveness. Next the parents of the young Lochinvar were seen, and they created a greater disturbance than did the parents of the young lady. Peace was finally patched up. but the parents of the young man so worked upon him that he ; finally consented to leave his fair bride and that section of the country for the period of one year. In leaving he deceived his wife into the belief that lie would be absent only three weeks, and when he finally bade her farewell the faithful little woman broke down completely, and for many days was inconsolable. Time sped on: days crept into weeks and weeks into months, and the faithless husband came not, until finally her faith was shaken and she believed that she had been deserted. About a year after the departure of young Snyder, on one cold winter's night, the Mason door-bell rang and the young wife, who first heard it, but was too ill to respond, requested her father to do so, and when the door was opened there stood the recre ant husband. George Snyder. The meeting between the two need not be related here. Woman-like, she forgave the man she loved for all the sorrow he had caused her. After a stay of several mouths Snyder again de parted, went to Chicago, and there opened a tin store upon money furnished by his parents. Business prospered with him, and he sent for his young wife. After a time she expressed a desire to visit her old home, the husband acquiesced, and she weut to Alexandria. The death of her husband's parents oc curred while she was there, and she wrote "him of it, receiving no reply, and, upon re turning to Chicago, found that he had dis posed of his business and had disappeared, it being claimed that there was another woman in the case. The heart-broken wife soon after returned to the home of her parents, who had removed to Balti more. In that city she met a former ac quaintance of her girlhood, named Alexander McDonald, then a well-to-do ship-owner of S5 years of age, who proposed marriage to her, which she declined to listen to, re maining faithful to her truant husband. Eleven years ago she received a letter from St. Louis stating that her husband had died iv this city. After investigation, by which she was convinced of the death of Snyder. she consented to the marriage with McDonald, which was duly consummated. From Baltimore Mr. and Mrs. McDonald removed to Salina, Kan. Business not urospering, Mr. McDonald went to Kansas City, where he took the position of foreman of the round house of the Fort Scott road. They resided in Kansas City for five years, and in December, 18S5, Mrs. McDonald went to Baltimore to visit her parents, and during her absence McDonald came to St. Loots, and, while having a good time gen erally, met at the corner of Broadway and Wash street a man who called himself George Snyder. The men discussed their past freely, and it was finally developed that they were both married to the same woman. McDonald applied tor and seemed a divorce upon his return home, without his wife's knowledge, but later informed her of what he had done and of the meeting with Sny der. She immediately left for St. Loins, arrived here a few days ago. and applied to the Chief of Police for assistance in (hiding her husband, whom she had not seen for so many years. Detective Archambault was put on the case, and he succeeded in locating Snyder in a .small blacksmith shop on the south side or Wash, between Fourth and Broad way. The wife was notified of the tact, ami in company with the detective pro ceeded to the above place. As she passed the shop she said: "Yes, that's my hus band," and walked up to the door and spoke to him. lie simply looked up. remarking, "Well, what in the world are you doing here?" A lengthy conversation ensued, Suyder in the meantime pounding away at a piece of iron, and paying but little attentiwn to what was said. This was Friday last. A second visit was paid ye;terday, and a re conciliation followed, eacli promising much to the other for the future. The lady will return to Kansas City to morrow, where she has a suit against McDonald for alimony, after which she will aid her hus band, Snyder, in reaching New York, where he has relatives in good circum stances. She is still a good-looking woman, of medium height, with black hair and dark eyes. She is now 29 years old. AVhen seen last night, at the Hotel Master, she was attired in a neat black silk dre.ss. and when asked about the story of her life admitted it all to be true. George Snyder, the husband, is now about 42 years of age, and presents a care worn, haggard look. The meeting between husband and wife was cool and common place, but the laily professes devotion to Snyder, and regrets his worn appear ance. Base Bull Sarcasm. Tid-Bits.
