the Conel:,ve was held in that city he
was running small job printing office
and was over run with card printing
for the Knights These cards have
Masonic em6lons and the name Of The
knight and the designation of his
command4ry. The cards cost about
twenty cents hundred ard the
Knights are glad 20 gol them during
cohclave pinned, for $500 hundred
and apWald The San Francisco man
brought two small presses with HIM
and in less Than ten hours after lie
opened up he had Two local job offices
running presses until o'clock in the
morning. He claims to have cleared
$25 900 on the week and it looks pro-
bable. He simply printed cards by the
ton. So much for grasping an occa-
sion.
The President has been deluged The
past week with inquiries as to whether
he is or not a Mason. The same ques-
ton has been put by mail several hun
bred times during the last few months
and to each letter has been written
stating that the President is not and
never has been a member of any secret
organization. Indeed by some chance
there is no Knight Templar in the
cabinet and only two Of the members
are even Masons Of any degree.
The size of the crowd during the
conclave is seriously estimated at about
100000 to 125,000 people. This leaves
it despite reports to the contrary, less
than half as large as that in the city
during Inauguration. Perhaps the
uniform good nature and absence of
noise and drunkenness made the num-
Der seem smaller than the bowling,
disorderly mob that distinguished
President Harrison's Inauguration with
its presence.
The society pet idea that Mrs. Har-
rison would to a great extent relinquish
the office of first lady of the land to
Mrs. Morton is shattered by the semi
official announcement that Mrs. Harri-
son will enter into the swim, so to speak,
up to her neck. The Morton millions
and The long society culture and the
