in the city yesterday morning, accom-
panied by J. F.O 'Brien of Devils Lake,

of Larimore, three of the delegates
from that state. Here they were met
by J. E. Campbell, of Mandan, and A.
Blewett, of Jamestown. and the entire
party went on to Chicago this evening.
The other delegate, Hon. w. E. Purcell,
reached Chicago several days ago.
The North Dakota delegates are I'M
instructed, but all are favorable to ex-
president Cleveland in case he is dem
onstrated to be the strongest man.
Several are for him in any event. Capt.

great many tons daily. The coal is
ground, mixed with tar, and burns to q
white ash, retaining heat a long time. A
lump burning, can be dropped in water,
soaked, and afterwards burned again.
The cost of the preparation is said to be
slight, and strong hopes are entertained
that the process will be put in operation
in this state before many months.
F. Jay Haynes, official photographer
for the Northern Pacific, and we'll known
all along the line-especially in North
Dakota, his former home-has become q
celebrated philanthropist and lecturer.
The st. Paul papers speak in high terms
of his recent stereoptican entertainment
given at the Peoples church in aid of the
Babies Home. The views were those of
Puget sound, Alaska and the Yellowstone
park. Mr.. Haynes studio in St. Paul
has become the leading art and picture
gallery in st. Paul, and his views of
Alaska and the Yellowstone park are
selling in large quantities all over the
world. Haynes is on fortunes road and
his old -time Dakota friends are glad.
When they 60 to st. Paul they call and
see him. 1t is a sort of Dakota head

Treatment of a Cold.

A "sweat" always acts admirably in
any kind of cold, and il not brought
about by exercise it ought to be pro-
duced by some of the many other means
known to housekeepers. If the cold is
in the head the following treatment
promises we'll: Add Il teaspoonful Of
powdered camphor to pitcher of boil
ing water. Over this place a cone made
of thick paper or pasteboard, and hold
the nose and mouth over the small open
ing. The vapor arising from the water
is charged with camphor, and will
speedily relieve many of the disturbing
symptoms. 1t should be inhaled for
four or five minutes at sitting, and
three such treatments are usually suf-
ticient to arrest the mostrebellious "cold
in the head"
But many of the victims of this trouble
must be out and about. A snuff is more
convenient for them. A very good ono
can be made up as follows: Menthol
three grains; powdered boracic acid, one
dram; subnitrate of bismuth and pow
der benzoin, each ~ drains. A good
sized pinch may be snuffed up five or six
times day.-Hall's Journal of Health.

G. w. No, 108.
WILL ID. STEWART, PRESIDENT.
GEO. LUFKIN, Recording Secretary.
George w. Hupers of National, No.
11S, proposed the following amendment
to article 2, section of the constitution
OF subordinate parlors: Strike out the
following, commencing with the words
in places where more than one parlor,"
in line II page Sc, constitution of SUBJ
ordinate parlors, to and including re-
mainder OF said section after said line,
and being the amendment adopted at
the fourteenth annual session of the
grand parlor.
Resolved, That section s of article 8
of the subordinate constitution be
stricken out, and the remaining Sec
tions numbered to correspond with the
omission.
Amend article 6 by introducing the
following as section s, and numbering
section s, section 8:
Section 7. A suspended member may
report of the Investigating committee,
by paying all demands against him to
date of suspension.
Article II, Sec. 2. The sentence COM
mencing candidates must be of the sge
of 1s years." etc. Amended to read as
follows: candidates must be OF the
ordinate parlor may fix the minimum
limit of houonG hut oOoc0l.
inf 21."
This amendment is proposed from
the feeling that the original may at
in a manner the trainers of the consti
tuition did not expect; that the age
might be raised to an extent that would
from becoming members. We think
! that 21, being the age of legal majority
is amply sufficient as Limitation.
Article III, sec. 8, amended to read al
follows:
mo business shall be transacted at a
special meeting other than that fol
which it may have been called, except
by unanimous consent"
We find that in the constitution of the
Grand parlor, art. Nv, sec. 4, the section
reads as above. We see no reason why
Except by unanimous consent" should
have been omitted in the constitution
for subordinate parlors. On the con-
trary, we think the omission might be
the cause of serious trouble and of the
postponemento of important business in
times of emergency. By all means this
section should be amended.
Article VII, sec. l, amended to read
as follows: 1.-The initiation fees and
dues shall be fixed in the bylaws and
payable in advance; provided, that the
initiation fee shall not be less than 50
nor more than $25."
We think that without some such
Limitation, the initiation fee might be
placed at so high figure that only the
rich could join, and in that manner
create cliques in our order. And as we
are supposed to be on terms of brotherly
equality, that would be directly against
one of the cardinal principles of our
order. We think $25 sufficient limita.
tion for any parlor.
