1t has generally been held by subordinate
oranges that an election of their officers must
be held in December, or the old officers will
hold over during the next year; that cleo
tons held after the regular meeting in De-
cember are not legal, The master OF the
national grange, John T. Jones, has ruled
otherwise. He says: "Under the consttu-
ton of the national grange, subordinate
oranges may hold their election at the regu-
lar meeting in December, or as soon there.
after as practicable" The masters of many
Of the state oranges ruled that the regular
election must be held in December, and
could not be deferred to later date, and We
printed that decision. We now cheerfuly
print the decision of Worthy Master Jones,
reversing the decision of the several state
masters. Therefore such oranges as cannot
hold their elections in December can hold
them as soon thereafter as practicable, and
they will be legal.

A street-Car Drivers Little Romance.

The driver Of downward. bound horse.car

said the conductor, land she rides with him a
little way nearly every night" "At TWEEN
third the woman left the car. Eyes" said

chew of tobacco, "she's pretty good wife,

she. We hain't either of US got any so we

amt much Of story about it, f" he added, as
he screwed up the brake to let lady step
aboard, shut it's kinder funny. My old man
was police captain. 1t was durin' those
times that the Assembly committee on crime

courtin my wife then, aud she thought the
old man was coinin' money, too. We lived
in West Thirty-fourth street, in nice.lOok-
ing house, and she lived in West Twentieth
street. Her father was 10 the dry goods bus
inoss, their house was furnished right smart,
and, when occasionally l took dinner with
her, there was fine layout on the table.
Twas natural for me to imagine that her
old man was well fixed, and, as Lucy-that's
her name-was right pretty girl, popped
the question. She put me off a day or two,
went up and called on my sister, saw the
style We lived in, and accepted me. We had
a high old wedding, Went down to Long

wedding tour, and came back to New York.

night, but thought after time she would
have some funds coming in. She thought
that my old man would help me along, 50
she invested my funds pretty literally in
clothes One evening, came from the
store and found Lucy crying. She said her
father had failed couldn't pay his grocery
bills, aud that her folks would have to leave
