Thursday in the Barker building hall about
one hundred persons, members of the Omaha
lodge No. IS, and their families and guests,
made up social party. Mayor Broatch on
behalf of No. IS, welcomed the gathering
and made every one feel that he or she was
an important atom IN the general makeup
and this without imposing feeling of self
that would seek to tread on the toes of Others
His words were observed in the spirit and let
ter in such earnestness as to insure an enjoy
able time. Miss Florence l.. Baker eX-
tended her musical soprano IN well Sc
lected solo, and Mr.. Henry Creighton seized
the favorable mood of the assembly to
deliver an address brimful of facts sustain
ing the enthusiastic belief Of Workmen that
their organization, swelled by all humanity,
would make of this world a paradise. He
dwelt on the fraternal impulse the while, not
neglecting to add his own satisfactory exper-
ience in the insurance Of the lodge as tending
to show that this insurance was really
fraternal provision for the needs of depen
dents. The baritone of Mr.. G. 9. Eason was
called upon, and the gentleman had to sub
nit to an encore The duet of Mrs. Seavey
and Miss Dooley was revelation of mel
ody, and the piano responded marvelously
to the touch of Prof. Windolph. Mrs Sea-
vey, under compulsion, gracefully sang.
Mrs. Miller's sweet soprano stole through
the room and into the hearts of all hearers.
The duet of Mar. Baker and Mr. Easson and
the bass of Mr. John McEwing supplement
ted musical arrangement Of great excel
lcnce, The banquet attended to, the ball,
including reel dedicated to the Ancient
Order Of United Workmen, was subjected to
much devotion. Chief Seavey, in full uni
form, acquitted himself to his own satisfac
ton, and that of everybody else. He is a
graceful dancer.
In measure accounting for the success of
the gathering is this list OF officials Master

Omaha with the Workmen of Council Bluffs
and South Omaha Monday, disclosed much
literary and musical ability in the ranks.
An appetizing lunch was served. Messrs.
Roberts, McEwing and LenoX lent their
musical power to the occasion. The speeches,
gently sprinkled by their own great worth
and the adaptablllty of the audience, were
not at all dry. The reunion was 80 well ap-
preclated that realization of the hour of part
ing was effected only on the testimony Of all
the watches present aided by the striking of
the public clocks. Past Grand Master h.
Kiai, OF Kansas, was among the guests. A
