Two inquisitive fellows of our town,
on Thursday night Of last week, were
caught eave-dropping on the stairway
leading to the Masonic Hall, where the
fraternity at the time were holding a
business meeting. Being caught In this
~predicament, they were asked If they
would like to Join the lodge. This they
assented to, and were asheYed into the
ante-rOom, where, according to the
rules, they would be required to take
the first degree. in order to enter the
lodge. Having consented, it is said it
was taken in q very heroic manner
The first degree in Masonry, especially
the n administered upon this ocea-
sion, is not desired by many to be
taken upon a cold niglt-a co1d-Water
bath. After taking the preparatory.de-
gree, they were told that by the nav
ment Of $40 they would be allowed to
enter. Not having this amount c0nye-
nient, they quickly retired, being eau
