Of the Lodge at Palermo is published in the

at cologne, Germany, and dated March "a.
Il Is preceded by the minutes OF the Lodge,
In which MastHl Ferretti, in 1926, was in
iliRted into the order under the old Scottish
rite. The decree reads as fellows: a. A man
named Maatai Ferrtti, who received the
baptism Of Free Masonry, and solemnly
pledged his love and fellowship, and who
aftsrward was crowned Pope and King, un-
der the tide Of Pho Nino,has now cursed hii
former brethren and accommodated Rl
members OF the order Of Free Masons
Therefore, said Mastal Ferretu is herewith

The Chicago Times, Of November 8,
carry the entire State ticket, sixteen to
eighteen Congressman and the Legisia-
ture. This ensures the defeat of Senator
Scott, whose term of office will expire on
the 4th of March next. This result was
not anticipated. 1t shows a very gene
raj overturning from two years ago, when
Grants majority was 1888. Morton
McMichael, one Of the leading Republi-
cans in the State, attributes the defeat
Of the Republican party to the unpopu-
larity of Senator Cameron and the Phil
adelphia Ring, rs well as the opposition
to the third term. Mr.. McMichael de-
clares that Grant, Cameron and other
corruptionists must take back seats, un-
til Republican supremacy is regained.-- -

elected their Presidential candidate
Polk, over the great Horny Clay.
In 1859 the democrats elected Pierce

gan to break up, and, narrowly escaping
q defeat in 1856, it was scattered to The
winds in 1860. n. &

The Woo3ea Manufacturers.

The manufacturers of wollen goods,
ana chlenBthe manufacturers of cassi- |
meres, have emphatically declared, by |
their determination to curtail produc-
ton 20 per cent, that Protection does |
not protect. We have many years
pointed out to these misguided men
that the .voollen protection Is only
calculated In the end to stifie their
great-industry. In 1866 81 they were
1uggled into accepting tariff by a
couple OF selfish carpet rnenufactur-
ers, who not only chained them with
a high tariff. on woollen fabrics,
but fastened upon them. an outrage.
GUS rate of duty on the foreign
raw wool that isneeded to produce
cloths and cassimeres, taking good,
care, nevertheless, that the common
wool used for making carpets
should come in, Comparatively cheap.
A delegation of wool-growers and
wool manufacturers in 1906 agreed
to advocate, and actually obtained,
u tariff which raised the duty on
4 foreign raw wool 10 to II cents
per pound, with IAN additional ii
per cent. adj valorem. To compensate

All through the vigorous and exciting

A ROMANCE OF THE ORANGE
GROVES.

The New Orleans Times tells very
interesting but pathetic story of the
life of an orange planter named Land
man. Thirty Years ago he came into
possession, As IA sflatter, of the island
of Cheniere on the Gulf coast. He was
at that time very young and full of en-
lerprise. By hard labor, year after
wear. he succeeded in raising one of
the largest and finest orange orchards
in Louisiana. although he worked
alone for years. After time he mar
ried and took his wife to the island,
and for years they enjoyed one Of the
happiest of homes. Children were
born to them, and their work was re-
munerative, so that they laid
up handsome sum. Then sick
ness came, and, one by one, all the
family died until tie father was left
alone again. Brooding upon his
troubles, he iancied that the spirits of
the dead were about him, and soon he
became an ardent believer i'll Spiritual
ism. At this point, some greedy land
spectators discovered that he had no
valid title to his land, and set about in
the courts to dispossess the old man OF
his island home. lie would not retain
counsel, hut relied upon the spirits to
help him manage his ease. OF course
there could be but one issue 10 the case.
There was practically no defense at
all. His spirit friends did not help
him. lie lost his home whore he had
lived for thirty years, and where his
wife and children We're buried. When
the Judge announced his finding and
decree the poor old man arose in
court, and his sole reply was: " Please
YOUR Honor, there is no redress for me
III earthly courts; | therefore appeal
my cause to the higher court of the
