THE PATRIARCHS.
Parade Of the Uniformed Odd-FelIOws-The
Work of the Supreme Temple

CHICAGO, July 12.-There was parade and
review of the local and visiting temples of
the Patriarchal Circle through the business
portion of the city this afternoon. There
were about forty bodies in line, representing
the States of Illinois, New York. Ohio, Indi-
ana, Iowa, Michigan, Wisconsin and Mime
sofa, and numbering in all about 800 uni
formed knights The uniform and regalia
OF the members is very similar to that OF the
Knights Templars, save that purple plume
is worn in place of the black one of the other
order. The street display was witnessed by
ways Few of the temples, however, dis
played any brilliant marching evolu-
tions, and a number of them moved
along with ragged and uncer-
tain fronts. The presence of uniformed
temples here develops the fact that con-
siderable body of the order of Odd-fellows
refuses to recognize the patriarehs and claims
that the Sovereign Grand Lodge at its ses-
sion two years ago, declined to legalize them,
on the ground that it had previously author
lied uniform degree for patriarehs; and
shat, while all Its members are Odd-fellows
it is an independent organization. Others
urge that the organization is entitled to rec
ognition under legislation of the Grand
Lodge ten years ago
At the business session to-day, owing to
the opposition OF the Grand Lodge, it was
decided to change the regalra in some of its
features. The report OF the secretary shows
that thirty-ffve temples were organized dur
ing the past year, making the total number
100, with total membership Of 4, 900, against
2,500 one year ago.
