burg and the whole State have become
deeply interested in the movement and the
question OF ways and means, a formidable
matter at first, has been solved BY various
expedlents rejecting great credit upon the
energeuc order which stands sponsor for the
monument.
Committees from the various councils
took the matter in hand, inaugurated a
vigorous skirmish for funds, formed a mon
umental committee, held fair which real
lied 81, 600, and in various ways urged the
matter along.
Some weeks since the full description of
the monument was given in The DIS

Eduard Pausch, who is nov at work unon
the figure of Washington, in the shop of A.

the foundation of the monument The
space allotted in the parks is opposite the
junction OF Sherman and Montgomery
avenues. A stand has been placed at the
eastern side of the foundation and a large
crane is in readiness to hoist the stone into
place. Workmen were busy yesterday
scooping out the space which will be filed
with official documents, relics, coins and
sundry newspapers. The laying of the
cornerstone is to be the elimination of the
biggest parade ever seen in the two cities.

Coraopolis Council 1854, was organized
about three years ago BY Heber Mcdowell.
1t is the parent of Clinton, Imperial, West
ern Star and several others. 1t has been
the same with "the' other councils, each or
ganizing new councils until to follow the
different ramifcations of the growth of the
order would be like blocking out "(amily
tree" From the above it will be seen that
the growth has been phenomenal. To-day
is significant not only as the birthday Of
Washington and its observance, but to the
different councils it is a family reunion,
where the offspring meet the parent body
and all vie with each other on their show
ing.

nine years ago. 1t is thought to be very
beneficial in creating interest in the order,
as on that day the councils pass in review
and compare notes on their membership and
standing. The review will take place at
Seventeenth street, on the Southside, this
year. From Seventh avenue the line will
move down Smithheld street to East Carson,
to Tenth, to Sarah, to Twenty-eighth, to
