Pythias-0ther Orders

In an interview Grand Master Lawrence
has the following to say concerning the loca-
ton of the site for the proposed Masonic
Home:
Sites were offered on Long Island and at
Unadilla, Utica, Auburn, Binghamton, Lock-
port, Syracuse and elsewhere. The commit
tee visited them all, and finally concluded
that the one at Utica was the most desirable,
and so reported to the grand master in jan
uary. The Utica site is known as the But
Ter farm IL is three miles from the city Of
Utica and is about 100 acres in extent. The
grand master and officers of the grand lodge
visited this site in February last, but no def
mite action was taken with regard to its Sc
lection
''The selection of site for the asylum is
prominently matter concerning which we
must make haste slowly. We have just
emerged from a great and long standing
frouble-the debt. A very little hasty or i'll
advised action just now might result in plung-
ing the fraternity into another difficulty
equally serious We must do nothing until
absolutely certain that what we do is for the
best interest of all. The brethren in many
different cities throughout the state have
made most generous offers of land to be used
for the asylum, some of the sites possessing
great value and being most eligible. Several
OF them the committee have deemed it best
20 decline from geographical considerations,
and Of those remaining they hare recon-
mended one in particular.
"From expressions received, however, l
judge that the committee deem it well that
the subject receive further consideration, and
IN my own opinion the time for final action
is not ripe.
1.-THE offers made by brethren and friends
mt Auburn, Rome, Utica and Binghamton
were those last considered by the committee,
and from among these one of the Utica sites
was especially recommended. 1t does not
necessarily follow that any one of the sites
thus far offered will finally be accepted, for
what we are in search Of is not merely a To-
cation that can be made to answer-we want
tho best, most eligible and most conspicu-
oilsIy fit site that can be found within the
state Of New York. Every single site that
has been offered, SO far Is am aware, has
been worthy of careful consideration, and
every one concerned in each of the offers is
entitled to the grateful thanks of the frater-
nifty. Yet, in the nature Of things, only one
site can be accepted, and if upon mature con-
aiderGtion it should be i1und that we can
purchase for money site which is more de-
sirable than any of those which have been
offered as gifts, it is quite possible that this
may be found the wise course to pursue, for
happily we are now in u position where we
c-.u buy and pay for as good piece of prop
erty as we want, if that course becomes most
desirable

command will consist of retired officers, and
q limited number of chevaliers to be selected
by cantons on membership basis These
chevaliers viii be commissioned captains and
file cavaliers during good behavior or active
membership in a canton. Cantons having
from twenty-seven to fifty active members
may elect one chevalier to join the Hussars
and one to join the Lancers, and an addi-
tional chevalier to Join either of the two
mounted regiments for every thirty active
members reported over the fifty. Chevaliers
elected to become file cavaliers will be COM
nissioned captains without cost, but will be
required to obtain uniform, which can be
secured at headquarters. As the uniforms
cost but trihe over 800, the regiments will
undoubtedly be soon filed.

minimum Benefits and the Use OF Collars.
Uniformed Rank Notes.
G. C. John H. Russo, of Indiana, issued
circular recently in which he says:
Your attention is hereby directed to the
following decisions, made by Supreme Chan
celior William Ward, to wit;
First-The supreme lodge provides for
payment of 81 per week sick benefits, as a
minimum sum that must be paid, from the
moment the brother is square upon the books,
having paid all Indebtedness. Supreme
lodge law makes the payment of 81 week
sick benefits obligatory; local law governs
She payment Of any amount in excess of it.
Second-He has officially construed article
% of the constitution of the supreme lodge,
as amended at the last session of that body,
TO prescribe positive evidence of rank for
every member of the order-for page, a
EI!ue collar; for an esquire, yellow collar;
for knight, red collar, or knights jewel.
and for all other members of the order the
jewel of office or rank, thus limiting the use
of collars to pages, esquires and knights.
The use, therefore, Of past chancellors'
collars" "past grand chancellors' collars" or
Officers collars for subordinate or grand
lodges, is illegal, and must not be permitted.

On Dec. 81, 1887, when the order was
ten years and six months old, and at period
when the predicted time for dissolution
should have taken place, there was member
ship of 79,17l-a net increase of s,34S over
'S6. The death rate for 1887 being S43+. In
1887 there were fourteen assessments levied,
and we close the year, Dec 81, with $40, IFS
as the current balance in the W. and o.
B. fund. In 1855 the same number of
assessments "a were levied, and we close the
year, Dec 81, with a current balance
in the W. and o. B. fund of S133, OS7, no
claims being held back either year. Thus it
is seen that the death rate was considerably
less in 1888 than in 1887.

II, 900 candidates were initiated. This Is en-
couraging-nay, it is grand and glorious
and is ali sufficient balm for the sorrow caus-
ed by thinned ranks here and there. In Mas
sachusetts, for example, during the year
ended Jan. 1, there was a net loss of 81 MEM
