.Ic HALL.-The Mason

A PUBLIC HALL.-Zhe Mason.
Without precedent on the geographi'
cal plan Of the nation is this city,
place fully half a century in advance
of The age with its daily press. and
other matters Of progress, and yet en-.
tirely destitute ofanything like pub.
lie ball, for meetings, and exhibitions.
The Masonic fraternity has the wealth
and strength to build something credi-
table 10 this way, and only wants ener-
getic direction. For years past it has
been talked OF, and all that is wanting
is proper spirit to take the lead in
this matter and give it direction. A
corner lot in a good location-with
two or three large and commodious
stores on the first floor-a large public
hall on the second and Masonic Hall,
in the third story, would pay at a low
estimate twenty per cent on the amount
invested and do much for the public
taste and moral tone Of society. The
funds can be raised without any trouble
whatever, and every dollar of the
stock be taken in the Masonio frater-
nifty. A charter can be had fo. suci:
company in order to carry on its
affairs, without trouble, and all wanted
is that some enterprising spirit will
take the lead. Where is the man to do,
what it were we'll to do quickly.
