MAS0NS In COUNCIL.
THE OPENING SESSION oFTHe GRAND
LODGE LARGELY ATTENDED.
and Rcporfs-Caiied Home by
His wife's Death.

The Grand Lodge of Virginia met last
night at st. Albans Hall. This is its one
hundred-and-thirteenth grand annual COM
munication.
The Most Worshipful Grand Master, Ro.
bert T. Craighill, presided, and all the
other officers were present except the
Grand Junior Warden. Mann Page, who
was absent in Florida, and the Grand
Chaplain, Rev. DR.. George W. Dame. G.
w. Darlington, Of Campbell county, was
appointed Grand Junior Warden pro ten.,
and Rev. G. j. 8. Mayo, of Newport News,
occupied the chapla;n's chair.
IL was after 8 o'clock before the members
Of the Grand Lodge were recorded and
seated. and 1T was nearly 8 O'Clock when
the opening ceremonies were concluded.
YEAR OF PROGRESS.
Grand-Master Craighill read his annual
address. He said the year had been an une-
yentful one, but that Masonry had gone on
in steady progression. He had granted ten
dispensations for new lodges. The elev-
enth came 10 him too late to act upon il and
this he turned over TO the Deputy Grand
Master who was about TO succeed him.
The Grand Master referred in feeling terms
TO the indisposition of Past Grand Master
Drinkard and expressed the hope that he
would soon be in perfect health. Owing
to Mr.. Drinkard's indisposition there will
be no report on foreign correspondence this
year. The Grand Masters address was
not a. lengthy as some who have been
heard in the Grand Lodge, but it is
doubted if more eloquent or feeling one
was ever delivered.
Standing committees were then ap-
pointed.
REPORTS READ.
Reports were then read from the Grand
Lecturer, the President OF the Masonic
Home. the Grand Treasurer, and the Off
cials Of the Masonic Temple Association.
The only past grand masters present
were Judge b. x. Wexford and General
William b. Taliaferro.
Past Grand Master Francis III. Hill, who
had been in the city for several days at
tending the sessions Of the Grand Working
Committee, received telegram from his
home in Madison yesterday evening an
bouncing the sad intelligence Of the death
of his wife. The Grand Lodge adopted
feeling resolutions of sympathy and di-
rected the Grand Secretary 10 transmit
them 10 the bereaved brother.
FOUR HUNDRED AT SUPPER.
At 1890 o'clock the Grand Master "called
of" for refreshment. About 400 Masons
sat down to n sumptuous supper prepared
by the grand steward, William Krause.
Great harmony prevails in the Grand
Lodge, and the brethren seem to be having
a most enjoyable time.
This afternoon the members of the body
will visit the Masonic Home, and tonight
the election of grand officers will be the
order.

DOWN IN A COAL-MlNE.
a Number of Richmond People Descend
the shaft at Gayton.

Few people in Richmond have any con-
ception of the vast enterprise that Dlr.
Ware Il. Gay and associates have estab-
lished at the Gayton COal-Mines. in Hen
rico county. which were better known un-
til recently as the Carbon-Hill Pits.
Through the courtesy of Mr.. Gay, who IS
president of both the Richmond Coal
Mining and Manufacturing and the NH-
ginia Eggette Fuel Company, an excursion
was given TO Gayton yesterday morning.
The train left the Richmond and Ale
ghany depot at $3.50 and returned about
four hours later.
The energetic gentleman from Boston
had as his guests some l20 OF more OF the
representative businessmen of Richmond.
including number OF, fuel-dealers.
Nearly all branches Of trade and several
professions were represented in the party.
Something over an hour was spent at the
mines, in which time all of the visitors
we're afforded the opportunity Of making
thorough inspection OF the entire works
including the coal-breaker and eggette
plant, and about thirty of the gentlemen
donned suits of oil-cloth and were lowered
down into the shaft so as TO give them
some idea of how the coal is gotten out
and of what life under the ground means.
Upon arriving at the mines MIR. Gay
made a very nice little speech Of welcome,
plished, and gave an idea of how the COM
pany proposes to develop its property,
which embraces q tract of 2200acres. near
ly all of which is virgin coal territory. Old
works for two miles or moro along the out
crop show MEDICATION of the several veins.
Only the upper one is being worked, and
this produces the Gayton red-ash.
The coal is mined by a shaft. at tho bot
tom of which extends an incline some 700
feet in the vein. which dips to the west at
about % degrees; TO the north and south
of this incline, gang-ways are driven, ag-
gregating nearly three miles, leaving pillars
of coal 60xG0 feet. The yein Is from 5H TO
feet in thickness. The breaker was con-
structed by builder from Pennsylvania,
and contains the usual facilities In way OF
elevators. screen, specihc gravity, -,Jigs,
picker-shutes, storage and shIpping-blns
The full capacity is about $50 tons daily, or
rs. 600 tons per year. Thepresent output is
about $50 tons per day. The product is III
broken, egg. nut, pea, buckwheat, ana
culm.
coal which is washed down from the
breaker, is carried through drying house
and after mixture with per cent. of pitch
moulded into eggette, proved of especial
interest. This mill turns out 200 pounds
every six minutes.
MIR. Cav, his younger brother, and MIR.
Lee Lorraine. all three OF whom are III
terested in the property, were lndeiatlga-
bic in their attentions, and when the IN
spection was over an elegant collation. was
served on the train. Beer and cigars were
also dispensed in an abundant manner,
and the company returned greatly pleased
with their mornings trip.

getting the Aldermanic board oy ana
possibly Q to IL. The Council Is neayily
Democratic. The city voted for ncense
and the Democrats managed to elect tne;r
non-partisan School Board. which VIII
for year put aside the continued squaoole
over the historical textbooks.
CAUSES OF THE RESULT.
The reasons why this tremendous re-
versal of popular opinion is the same that
led TO the Republican defeat in the state
unpopular candidates. Mr.. Matthews: the
Son of q millionaire belonging to one OF the
old families. was elected because his record
was clean and he was popular. His ability
is yet to be tested. The Republicans nomi-
mated Merrill. an accredited agent OF the
obnoxious West-Eud Railway Corporation.
By the company's influence and money
be defeated the popular Mayor Hart in the
caucuses, and the Republicans. disguised
az Merril's record, remained OF home.
STAYED AT HOME.
The Republicans simply stayed at home.
The Democrats polled their regular vote.
Elections were also held IN Worcester,
Lynn. Salem. and Lowell They all voted
for license, the first three going Repu oli-
can and the last Democratic. which is q
gain for the Democrats. The total result
shows that the vote is about the same as
in the State election, while me Prohloi-
ton vote has fallen of generally.
