THE SECRET SOCIETIES.
MASONRY.

The excessive warm weather ana the
heat OF the lodge room does not appear
to discourage the Jealous members OF
the several Masonic bodies In this city
from doing their duties, or prevent
them from appearing at the stated
times at the wonted place OF meeting,
but we observe that the same sort OF
zealousness is not always found In the
aspirants for the honors or degrees as
was well displayed at the last meeting
OF Wheeling Union Chapter No. !, on
Monday evening, for there were present
a full Chapter room OF workers, with no
candidate in sight. Well, the asplrant
can roast the worker now, but be may
be froze out later In the season, when
he climbs TO the summit OF the arch.
On Tuesday evening Bates Lodge No.
80 Jared better, when the large number
OF brethren present longed for the ao'
sepce of an expected candidate for the
Third; but he was one OF those kind OF
craftsman who did not put of labor on
account OF heat, and consequently he
was raised to be a Master, and good i'm
presslons were made on him when he
learned what 1t was to have charita-
bic heart, for be invited all present
down to Bro. Ziengenfelder's, where all
had an opportunity TO cool oil their
heated propenslties for a time with
cooling ices, and thus were amply re-
paid for operating on a fan during one
evening at least.
On Thursday evening Nelson Lodge
No, 30 held it's regular communication
and its mem bership was we'll represent
ed, as well as we'll as all the other sister
lodges OF the city, and also the follow
ing visitors:

and the work was performed under the
guidance OF Post Master McCahon,
VINO was TeQUeSLeu W bdno WIG Nhoh "
Worshipiul Varney, and II was not
more excellently rendered by him on
any previous occasion than at this time;
everyone was more than satisfied and
more so filled, after being Invited at
close of the work by Bro. Varney TO Bro.
Zeingenfelders to partake OF refresh
ments.
Not one OF the Masonic bodies Will
meet during the coming week as the
second monthly meeting will not be re-
sumed until next month. We cannot
perceive what our Jealous fellow work
ers will do during the week unless soma
OF the lodges In our immediate vicinity
should have a meeting and invite them
10 participate in the proceedings. We
are glad TO note the peculiar feelings OF
brotherIy love which is Of late observed
among the brethren OF our surrounding
country, and which Is brought about by
the visits OF brethren Of the various
lodges. We are sorry 70 note that the
genial, good-hearted brethren OF Nelson
Lodge No. 30, Peter Boyd and Barney
White, have not so improved from their
recent sickness as to be enabled to min
gle with the brethren. Brother b. j.
Fullerton, OF King Solomon's Lodge, OF
Connellsville, Pa, who has been sick
for the past week, has recovered so as
TO be out Of bed.
