Branch 954, Order of the Iron Hall, was
established in this city in December. 1888,
and from what we can gather, the order
seems to be in more fourishing condition
than at any previous period in its history.
The past year the assessments have
amounted to smaller sum than for Sc veral
years before, and in TO year have they
been as high as the estimate from the
Supreme sitting. This order guarantees
to pay insurance in different amounts at
the end Of seven years, and certain sums
ity, according to the amount of the
insurance. 1t appears to the cas-
usl observer that the order promises
too much, but they meet the srgume nts
brought against the system by facts and
figures which one must admit have their
force, if he is not fully convinced. Quite
an amount of money has been paid out
by the branch of the O. |. II. in
this city for such benefits, and those who
are in it have good deal of confidence in
its workings. The following officers have
lately heen installed for the coming year
by Dist. Deputy E. G. Merrill; S. A.
Estes, C. j.; E. C. Herring, V. j.; W.
A. Gilman, Acct; W. P. Pullman, Treas. {;
