to call upon him. The President was
busy, and sent word that he would SEQ

strolled into the conservatory In the
rear of the White House, thence into
the garden. Butler and Phillips ere
engaged in an animated conversation
upon some topic. Butler became
slightly excited. A large Ratchet be-
longing to the gardener was beside q
tree ; Butler picked 1t up, and, while
talking, lie made several deep gashes
with Il into one Of General Grants

presented by you to the Grand Lodge
Of the District Of Columbia, all honor
which, Lam we'll aware, 1 owe not to
my personal worth, but to the fact, and
the most Important and significant
fact, that l am the representative OF
the Grand Lodge Of England, holding
the highest office that can be conferred
upon a Mason In England, that Of
Grand Master; and, sir, ] esteem it n
most fortunate occasion-fortunate for
me rs an individual, and fortunate for
Masonry in both countries-that there
should ut length have taken place so
close q union between Masonry IN
America and Masonry In England, and
that you should now for the first time,
rs you tell me, receive within the
walls of this important Grand Lodge
Of Free Masons the Grand Master OF
England. We nil know that fraternity
Is the first principle Of Masonry, and
therefore 1t Is that all must rejoice at
everything which tends to bind more
closely together the Masons Of differ
ent countries. e r. e
al, sir, esteem myself very fortunate
indeed to have had it In my power to
attend here tonight. l shall carry
away from this Grand Lodge the most
grateful recollections of your kindness.
| shall make It my first duty to tell my
brethren In England of the magnificent
reception which has been accorded to
their Grand Master tonight, and | am
confident that | do not miSinterpret
the feeling with which they will re-
ccive the information when see them.
They will Indeed rsjoice that the first
stop has been taken which will tend to
a closer and more intimate union be-
tween American and English Masons
great applauseb n union which. for
my part, | have always believed ex-
listed, but which | believe will be closer
and more intimate In the future"

sumed his seat. a recess was then
taken to enable the brethren to be pre-
sent0d to Earl De Grey. Lord Tenter-
den was also the recipient o fattentions.
The latter is Grand Master of Harmony
Lodge, England. After these greetings
were over the company proceeded to
the Music Hall, which was appropri-
ately DECORATED with the portraits of
Washington and Victoria, while the
walls were draped with American and
British flags.
The company here sat down to the
banquet. At the removal of the cloth
n table-lodge was opened, and the
gavel of the Grand Master was rs
" ~ nl.n
Grand Master, c. F. Stansbury, wore
the apron and sash and used the gavel
which formed part Of the insignia of

LUCKY ESCAPE. - Yesterday after
noon II boy jumped off the passenger
train az it was passing along Front
street. and ran after another youth.
Returning, he attempted to get OH tie
CIR again while it was still moving,
but m~iscalculated the distance and
swung round almost under the wheels,
and would have fallen OH the track and
been crushed but for the brakeman,
who caught him and threw him clear
off the train to the ground. IL Is both
u foolish and a dangerous practice boys
have of jumping on moving trains, and
some Of them will yet pay dearly for
