ritual prepared by Founder Of The order.
Mr.. Rathbone was first read. On Friday
evening, February 10Th, the first meeting
was held for the organization of lodge.
Washington Lodge, No l, sprange into ex-
istence, and the name knights of Pythias'
was adopted for the order.
The basis for its organization is the
story of the remarkable friendship of
Damon and Pythias, in the reign of the
tyrant Dionys;us. Upon this the most
notable example of heroic friendship and
self-sacrifce in ancient history, has been
founded the most remarkable fraternal or
ganization of modern times. From such a
small beginning, at a time when the
passions of war and internal strife had not
cooled, amid all the vicissitudes surround
ing its early growth, it has gone forward
with the most astonishing growth that any
order ever enjoyed, until now, twenty-six
years after its first meeting, fully 100000
men in every State and Territory and
British America, are enrolled under its
banner. The Uniform Rank numbers up
wards of 10000 men-more than the
United States army at the present time.
The Endowment or Insurance Rank has
already membership approaching 30,000
and nearly S15,000,000 have been spent in
charity and in the payment of heirs of
deceased members. No better explanation

HE WAS ALL TO BLAME.

How a Rebel Came Over and Put an End
to the War.
As we lay facing the rebel lines-sround
Petersburg that last winter of the war the
men in the rifle pits refrained from firing
at each other, except when ordered to do
SO to cover some new movement, says a
writer In the New York Sun. One night
l was in pit about half mile from what
IS known as the "crater," and | soon found
that there was Johnny" in pit facing
me, and only stones throw away. Ev-
erything was quiet in that neighborbood,
and l had been in the pit about an hour
when he called out:
Say, Yank, what about this hyar wah ~
What do you mean?"
When are you 'uns gwyne to quit?"
When you are licked out of your boots" !"
"Shoo! you can't do it in a hundred
years"
"Well, we are going to keep trying"
He was quiet for few minutes and said:
Say, Yank, this is an awful wah."
"Yes."

inquiries regarding arrangements for the
Conclaye should be addressed. Past
Grand Chancellor Williams is we'll
known lawyer, having made an enviable
record as Prosecuting Attorney of Mil
waukee county, He is giving close atten-
tion to the details of the work at head
quarters, and under his management the
work of preparation is progressing very
rapidly. c. c. Rogers, Secretary of the
Executive Board, is well-known Board
of Trade man. He is known as one of the
most active "hustlers' in the city. In ad-
dition to an extensive commission busi-
ness, he is Manager of the Advancement
Association, which aims to keep the world
posted on all matters affecting the best in
terests of the city.
In conclusion, it is proper TO say that
the kindly greetings of Milwaukee are ex-
tended to the people of the whole world,
in the hearty invitation to be here during
the Pythian Conclave Everybody who
visits this, the most beautiful of Western
cities, will be cared for. The standard of
enjoyment set by the delightful gatherings
In other cities in past years will be raised,
and Milwaukee will sustain her we'll
earned reputation for generous, OPEN
hearted hospitality.

Gus trinity of friendship, charity and be-

good intentions to others; and to protect
the principles of knighthood unto DEATH"
The Knights of Pythias Order has been
and is peculiarly fortunate, not only in the
fine body of men composing its member
ship, but in the ability and efficiency of its
officers. No secret order has better reason
to be proud of its high character and
standing of its officers. General William
Ward, the present Supreme Chancellor, of
Newark, n. j., was brave soldier and is
citizen respected for his integrity, busi-
ness ability and many fine personal quail
ties. Major General James r. Carnahan
of Indianapolis, who has by his industry
and ability made the Uniform Rank what
it is, is an able lawyer of the Hoosier State,
who served his country well in the war of
the rebellion. George B. Shaw of Eau
Claire, Wis, who, as Supreme Vice-C Chan
cellor, is now in line for promotion to the
Office of Supreme Chancellor is a prince
of good fellows, thorough business man,
and though but 36 years old is the choice
of many voters in his party for Congress
man from the Eighth Wisconsin district.
Howard Douglass of Cincinnati, who has
"passed the chairs" and is row the acting
Past Supreme Chancellor, is prominent
member of the Ohio bar, and leader in
many public enterprises. Equally strong
words of praise might be bestowed with
propriety upon r. l.. c. White of Nash
vile, Tenn, the Grand Keeper of Records
and Seal; S. j. Wiley of Wilmington,
Del, Master of Exchequer, and many
others who hold positions in the Order.

On Wednesday morning the competitive
drill will commence and will be continued
all the morning. In the afternoon the en-
tire Pythian army will be drawn up in
line for inspection and review.
Thursday morning will be given up to
prize drills. In the afternoon the Su-
preme Lodge delegates will be given a
complimentary drive around the city by
the citizens of Milwaukee. At that time
or some other convenient occasion during
the week, it is expected that the Supreme
Lodge will enjoy an excursion on Lake
Michigan to Whitefsh bay, beautiful
pleasure resort five miles north of the
city.

with his hair on end, ran to see what was

looked in. Willie was sitting astride his

was twisting the cats tail and bringing
forth howis of dire agony. Tommy was
whirling a rattle. Bobby Stapiefor3,

dozen other casual youngsters were pound

covered amphitheater will seat several
thousand people who will witness the

HIS IDEA OF EXTRAORDINARY.
Nothing Remarkable About a Man Fall
ing LOCO Feet Unless He Lived

Some ten or twelve years ago an incl
dent happened at Gibraltar which illus
trates the practical views of certain class
of people, says the New York Herdld. A
subaltern named ODcnohue was the Off
Ger of the guard at the Elphinstone Guard.
At this point of the world-known rock there
is asheer drepof over 1,000feet. A Lieuten-
ant who had taken too much champagne
at mess dinner walked over the rock and
undoubtedly was dead before he reached
the rocks far below. When the officer of
the guard came to fill in his report and
reached the question, Has anything ex-
trsordinary happened while you were Off
Ger OF the guard ?'' he wrote in the blank
space reserved for the answer Nothing"
OF course he was summoned before Lord
Napier of Magdala, the Governor of Gil
braltsr. When he appeared Lord Napier
asked:
You were the officer of the guard at
Elphinstone Guard yesterdayT'
II was, SIR"
And this is your report ?"
1t is, sir.n
Lieutenant M was killed by walk
ing over the rockg'
:" He was, sir"
You knew that when you made out
your report g'
" | did, sir"
3That he was killed ?"
Yes, sir"
. And yet you said in your report that
nothing extraordinary had happened on
your guard 2"
az did, sir"
Well, Mr.. 0Donohue,' said Lord Ma
pier, sternly, "don't you think it is extra
ordinary when a Lieutenant walks over
The rock, falls 1000 feet and is killed."
Indeed, sir" was the prompt reply, al
shonld think it was extraordinary il he had
fallen that far and not been killed.

never before been attempted.
On Wednesday evening Schlitz Park
will be the scene of grand prize band
concert, in which there will be lively
rivalry on the part of the various bands,
numbering probably fifty or more, which
will attend the conclave. The, prizes
given to the bands will aggregate $500 in

but Milwaukee bands will be excluded

the third 500. A special prize of 5000

While the conclave is an affair of great
interest to all members of the Knights of
Pythias Order, the main features of the
week will be those parts in which the
Uniform Rank will participate. The
prize drills by competing divisions will
form an especially notable feature. Mil
waukee citizens have offered eight prizes
for proficiency in drill, which will be
hotly contested for by divisions from
every State in the Union. The aggregate
amount of money set apart for the pay

of the kind to be held on the Western con-
tinent during the year 1890. For the
week of July 7th to 18th inclusive, the
hospitable people of Milwaukee will open
the gates of their city, and of their hearts
as well, and will give to the visiting
Knights, uniformed and without uniform,
most royal welcome. They will also
welcome the wives and daughters, the
neighbors and the friends of the noble
band of citizens who comprise the order of
the Knights of Pythias throughout the
United States and Canada. Each and
every citizen of Milwaukee, "the Blonde
Beauty of the Lakes" will, during that
