A Chance for Everybody.

By order of assignee, the stock of Chicago
Shoe Store, corner Sixth and J must be
closed out on or before January s, 1889. In
order 10 close out the stock as quickly as
possible, we have made such a tremendous
reduction in prices that even if you are not
in need of shoes, you cannot possibly afford
to let this chance go by without shoeing
yourself and family, as you may never
again be able to get boots and shoes at such
prices as we are closing out this stock for. :

QUARTER CENTENNIAL.
The Silver Anniversary of the order
Knights of Pyfhiss

The Silver Anniversary of the Order OF
Knights of Pythies.
On the 10Th day of February, 1864. new
secret Order came into existence, named
the Order of the Knights of Pythias, with
Justus H. Rathbone as the founder. On
the 10th day of February, 1889, its twenty
fifth birthday will occur-its Silver An
niversary." The membership in all parts
of the Supreme Jurisdiction will observe
the day in fitting manner, in accordance
with the following sentiment and sugges-
ton reported by the committee appointed
by the Supreme Chancellor to report on
the subject:
Your Special Committee on Silver Anniver-
sary desire to report that, as we examine the
record of the Order, we are lost in wonder at its
great growth and rich fruitage-twenty-five
years of work for humanity, crowned with a
strength that has exceeded the widest expecta-
tons of the most enthusiastic votalies The
of realization to the founder of our Order, as he
looks upon quarter of a million OF brave
knights sprung from the little band that gath
cred around him at Washington q quarter of
q century ago. 1t is most fitting and proper
that the 10Th day o. February should be made
10 mark an epoch in the history of Pythian
ksn1lg1thood The picture OF this vast army of
free America pledging anew upon this ami
yersary their loyalty to the principles of friend
ship, charity and benevolence, and testifying to
the world that ours is Society founded upon
eternal truth and established in the hearts of
our fellow beings, is indeed an inspiring one
We would therefore recommend the adoption
of the following:
Resotred, That the Supreme Chancellor be and
he is hereby authorized and instructed to issue
circular TO all Grand and Subordinate Lodges
under the jurisdiction of the Supreme Lodge,
at as early day as he may deem wise, calling
upon them to celebrate the twenty fifth ami
versary in becoming manner.
The branches of the Order in this city
have taken steps to properly celebrate the
occasion. On New Years day they broke
ground for their new castle, and on the
18th of next month the corner stone will
be laid with much pomp.
