Masonic.

The Grand Lodge A. F. & A. M. met on
the 18th of last January in this city. The
attendance was the largest ever known in
the history of that body. It's next meeting
will be on the 18th of next month, when
the reports will show a steady access of
members during the year just closing and a
good financial condition. Our home lodges
have prospered beyond expectation, and all
anticipate year of prosperity.
The Grand Chapter of Royal Arch Ma.
sons met October II, and was also largely
attended, great interest being manifested in
the work of the order. Our local chapter is
steadily increasing in membership, and ere
long it will probably become necessary to or
ganize new chapter in order to accommc-
date those who are found worthy of eleya-
ton to that sublime degree.
The Grand Council of Royal and Select
Masters was in session on the 18th of Octo-
Der, and the usual business was transacted.
The reports show that the order is doing

DRUGS.
R0yes Bros. g. Cutler.

The firm of Noyes Bros. & Cutler (now
occupying the finest and most complete
drug warehouse in the West, if not indeed
IN the United States) was formed in 1872,
succeeding Noyes Brothers in the whole
sale drug business.
As Noyes, PETIT & Go. in 1869, and Noyes
Brothers in 1s69-70-71, this firm had been
successful and it's business increasing, but
since it became Noyes Bros. &, Cutler its
success and growth have been remarkable, a
credit to the city and the firm. From their
original Third street store in the old Union
block, their successive removals, first to
larger quarters in the Reeves block (now oc-
cupied by Gordon & Ferguson), then to the
large double store 80 and 80 Robert street,

Fifth and Sibley streets, show the
growth of their business and it's
increased demands for room and
other facilities. From sales of few thou
sand dollars per month in 1868, the increase
has been so great that they rank with the
very largest drug houses of the country.
A million of sales in this business repre-
sents an amount Of business and labors al.
most incredible, as sales do not count up in
it as in other lines of business.
| The firm import largely, perhaps the most
largely of any house here, from France and
England, and also manufacture very largely.
They sell in Utah, Wyoming, Nebraska,
Montana, Dakota, Minnesota, Wisconsin,
Iowa and Illinois; ship also to California and
the East, ginseng, senega, etc., etc.
They employ about fifty persons. Their
sheds and warehouses, for cheap heavy goods,
give them great facilities in handling acids,
naval stores, etc., etc.
Their stock is very large and complete.
In staple drugs. chemicals, dye stuffs, glass
and glassware, oils of every kind, patent
medicines, druggists sundries, Instruments,
naval stores, paints and colors, fishing tack
les, cigars and smokers articles, druggists
stationery, etc., etc., it is remarkably large
and fine.
specially in their business is the fitting
out of new drug stores. They fit up some
fifty or more stores every year. The largest
and finest stores here were many of them
fitted out with stock and ware from Noyes
Bros & Cutler.
Some 600 letters daily are received and
sent out by the firm, their "mail'' being the
largest of any business firm in the North
west.
We have not space to give in detail all the
features of their business, or even to describe
their remarkable store. Their new safety
appliances to lessen risk by fire are alone
worth visit to the store to see and examine.
We have only to add that in experience,
knowledge of business, in means, energy and
character, this firm stands second to none
in any portion of the country. 1t is house
of which the city and State can we'll be
proud.

vile on the oath of June. The ses-
sion was most enjoyable. This sug-
gested to Damascus commandery of this city
tho desirability of establishing an annual
encampment on the shores of some of the
lakes surrounding this city, where they could
spend the heat of the summer among the
sylvan groves, and receive their friends with
true knightly hospitality. The result was
the establishment of Camp Hurlbut, on the
shore of White Bear lake, in the early part Of
the month of August, where for month
some nifty knights took up their quarters in
tents prepared for them. One night a week
was set apart for the entertainment of friends
and fellow knights from other cities. These
evenings were notable for their social bril-.
liancy and good cheer. The picturesque
camp was brilliantly illuminated, and all
guests we're accorded hearty welcome. The
Great Western band furnished music for the
occasions. and the pavilion in the center of
thu camp was scene of extraordinary gaiety.
The Sabbath days were devoted to religious
observances. Tens of thousands from this
and adjoining cities visited the encampment
during the season, and there was a general
regret when the time came to strike camp.
It is probable this most enjoyable feature
will be repeated the coming year.
THE MASONIC RELIEF ASSOCIATION.
In connection with tke Masonic body OF
Minnesota relief association has been Or
ganized for the purpose of aiding the fami-
lies of deceased Masons. This association
now numbers 2,525 members. During
the year seventeen members have died,
and the families of each have received
$4,000 in cash. To provide this money
assessments are made upon the surviving
members, but as the number of members is
IN exec IS of the amount required there is
surplus from each. For the past year,
therefore, though there were seventeen
deaths there were but ten assessments, the
remaining seven assessments having been
paid out of the surplus accumulated from
the ten assessments collected. It will thus
be seen that total of $4,000 has been
paid out by the association during the year,
for which each member has paid about S12.
equivalent to sc year per $1,000 of in
surance. The membership of the associa.
ton has increased about 300 during the
year. The management is confded to the
secretary, Mr.. j. G. Terry.

u. Oppenheis,s & Go,

This firm embarked in the. Wholesale mil
linery business in 1872, and by enterprise
and fair dealing have built up large and
steadily increasing trade. They keep con-
stantly on hand large stock of the finest
goods in their line that the market contains,
employ four travelling statesmen and four
house men, besides from twenty to twenty.
five girls in their manufacturing department..
Occupying three stories of the building No.
1o1 Third street, they have facilities for
the transaction of a large business. Tie
sales during the year have amounted to about
$10O,0O0-rather less than usual, owing to
the inclement weather. The head of the
house, Hon. Joseph Oppenheim, was compli-
mented in the fall of 1873 by an election to
the House of Representatives of the State,
and discharged his duties with rare fidelity
and discrimination.

OUR HOTELS.

The hotel capacity of ST. Paul is some
thing enormous for city of this size. There
are some fifty hotels of all grades, besides
almost innumerable boarding houses.
We do not give in detail any but the
more prominent hotels, and their capacity
and business is somewhat surprising. It
shows that st. Paul can care for a crowd of
10000 people without being Inconvenience

house, from its square dealing and we'll
known uniformity of goods, has constantly
increased from year to year, until it now
stands equal to any other house in the North
west Parties desiring liquor for the trade
or family use, would do well to COLL upon

making their purchases, as their motto is
quick sales and small profits, and to give
value received every time. This firm keeps

sales annually amount to between 100000

This firm is the agent for the Fairbanks
Standard Scales, is, in fact, branch of the
firm which manufactures the scales which
have become world famed for their &C.
curacy and reliability in all climates.
Formerly the Fairbanks located their agen-
cies in such cities as st. Louis Chicago and
Cincinnati for the west, and solicited trade
from these points. The growing Importance
of the Northwest induced the company to
locate at the commercial center, st. Paul.
The house doing business in this city is one
of eight others distributed in the west,
southwest and northwest, and has exclusive
control of the famed Standard scales.
Each year they have grown in popular ia
vor, until at the present time they are in uni
versal use. No one cares to buy by weight
unless ''the Fairbanks'' measures the article
for sale.

direct from the manufacturers. Besides the
scales, which are made the special object and
concern of the firm, they have on hand
grocers' fixtures of all kinds; coffee, spice
and drug mills; warehouse trucks and an
endless variety of like machines
The firm occupy No. 46 East Third
street, three story building
with basement, running from Third to Sec
ond street. The basement is used as re-
pair shop, and every part of the scales is
kept on hand, SO that any scale can be quick
ly and properly adjusted.
The firm employs three travelling men,
who devote their entire attention to
the country contiguous to St.
Paul-the Northwest, Wisconsin and Iowa,
Mr.. George B. Woodward, one of the firm,
is in Chicago, and besides the travelling men,
gives occupation to six others about the
building.
It is gratifying to know that the growing
importance of ST. Paul demanded that s.the
Fairbanks'' should establish here, and it is
satisfactory to know that our community
has responded with generous patronage.

Hagoen,.fz1e, e. Kuny.

This firm was organized in 1877, and their
place of business is No. 173 West Third
street, near the Seven corners. They occupy
three floors and almost any amount of cellar
room, excavated out of the sand rock, run
ming under Third street for 153 feet at least.
They make speciality of imported wines and
brandies, and their trade extends all over the
Northwest. They have three travelling men
on the road all the time, and occasionally the
members of the firm take spin over the
State, visiting some of their largest customers
at the leading business points. Although the
firm has been organized only little over
two years, they are reaching out for the trade
all over the Northwest, and to-day their an
nual sales will rank even with, if they do not
exceed, those of any other wholesale liquor
house in Minnesota, contesting with some of

the face of sharp, close competition. The
members of the firm are both active bust

stock comprises a great variety of articles,
all OF which are useful and many of which
are very ornamental.
