to be presented with one of the most
expensive and elegant diamond badges
ever given by lodge to it's master. as
this was to fall upon Mr.. Lawless as a
surprise later on, and then Introduced
Mr.. GrisWold for toast upon the his
tory OF the grand lodge of Minnesota
MMr GriSWOld is an entertaining
speaker. and gave humorous and i'll
structive history of the grand lodge
from the date of it's organization to the
present. He said that st. PauI's lodge
has today twice the membership of tile
grand lodge at the date of its organize
ton. He spoke of the three lodges
named as being the parents of the grand
lodge. He spoke feelingly of the men
who organized the first meeting. espe-
cially of Charles K. Smith, who was
then secretary of Minnesota.
70 William H. Grant was assigned
the toast, 1.-The Early History of st.
Paul Lodge and Its Past Masters" He
said that w. P. Murrayis the oldest past
master in the state. He sketched the
history of the past masters living and
dead in pleasing way.
Z. b. BrunSOn was called on for a
toast on "St. Paul's Lodge to Her Guest.''
Mr.. LaWlesS was called to his feet for a
response to the eulogy pronounced by
MIR. BrunsOn, and he made a very happy
address. judge 0. M. Metcalf was now

company could not we'll have been ac-
cOmmodated. The tables were arranged
about the hall with ref nee TO space
in the most convenient way. They
were beautifully decorated with palms
and cut flowers. At the south end sat
the guest, Mr.. Lawless, in the east one
of three Masonic seats. In the center
one sat Rev. DR.. Wright, of st. Paul's
Episcopal church, and in the west one
sat Charles Griswold, postmaster of the
grand lodge, the grand master being I'M
able to be pre"ent. ~
The banquet comprised wines; hence
the affair was not conducted upon the
insignia of the blue lodge. as liquors are
prohibited by the rules of the order. q
The quartette of Summit lodge. the
finest male quartetie in the city, was
present. and at the close of the repast
the IosS prandial exercises were opened
with two beautiful selections by the
singers. 7I
DR.. Metcalf, the POSTMASTER, arose at
the close of the singing and gave a Mss
tory of st. Pau.'s lodge. This was the
first lodge organized in Minnesota, hay-
ing received its ,diSpensatiOn from Ohio
in August, 1S49, and but for a peculiar
combination OF circumstances would
have been No. L.. Its charter was not
issued until Jan. "a, 1853, and before it
received its charter st. Johns
lodge, of Saltwater. secured charter
from Wisconsin, and Cataract lodge, of
st. Anthony, secured one from Illinois.
When the grand lodge of Minnesota was
organized on Feb. g. 1858, it found d
problem to solve. st. Paul's wanted to
be No. |. and st. Johns wanted to be
NO. /. The grand lodge settled matters
by numbering the three lodges accord
ing to the priority OF their charters. st.
Johns was made No. l, Cataract was
made No. 2, and st. PauPs fell
into third place. The doctor,

THE POALMAN PARDON.
Aggravating Circumstances Led
to the Killing.

Aggravating Circumstances Led
to the Killing.
Gov. Merriam yesterday pardoned
Herman Pohlman, who is serving five
years sentence in the penitentiary for
shooting and killing Fred Tang, the city
marshall of Taylors Falls. The pardon
was granted Oh the recommendation of
Judge Crosby, the trial judge; Assistant
Attorney General ChildS, and number
of prominent citizens who were familiar
with all the circumstances in the case.
Tang, who was vicious fellow, had
been annoying Mrs. Pohlman with his
attentions. One day Pohlman and his
family had gone to the depot to take
the train, when they saw Tang coming.
They all went into the baggage room to
hide from him, and after a time one OF
the children was sent out to see if he
had gone. The child reported that he
had aud the family came out. They
had no sooner appeared Oh the plat
form than Tang appeared and threat
ened to kill POhlman, at the same time
reaching for his hip pocket. Pohlman
drew a revolver and shot him dead.
For this he was sent to the penitentiary
for five years. Mrs. Pohlman removed
to Saltwater, in order to be near her
husband, when he was sentenced and
has since resided there.

The Ramsey county delegation to the

the chamber of commerce last evening.
There were present Senators Sanborn,
Lienau and Dean, and Representatives
Walsh, Nilsson. Rodger, Williams and
Wallblom. The absentees were Senator
Stevens, Representatives Ives. Dodd
and Kelly.
AS explained by Senator Dean, the
meeting was principally for the purpose
of getting acquainted and comparing
notes. Legislation for cities was dis
cussed, for there can be no more local
legislation. The Bell charter is mis-
cradle failure and it works serious hard
ships to ST. Paul. Therefore, it is pro-
posed to enact a general law for city
administration. in which all the defects
in ST. Paul's charter will be remedied.
Another meeting will be held soon.
AT the suggestion of Senator Lienau.
the legislative committees from the city
council, the chamber of commerce and
other city organizations will be invited
to meet with the delegation that will be
held at the Chamber OF Commerce Tues
day evening, Dec. 30.

SALUTE THE AMERICAN FLAG,
The Emblem OF Freedom, of Ma
tional Power and Unity,

The Emblem OF Freedom, of Ma
tional Power and Unity,
Are words which arouse in the breasts
Of all true Americans that loyalty and
patriotism for which our land is world
famed. The words ring with sound
expressive of liberty and independence,
and spoken where they may, will de-
mand attention in whatever connection
they may be uttered. From the time Of
George Washington and the illustrious
heroes of '76 the symbol of freedom and
patriotism has been .:the American
flag" The ensign for which our faith
erS fought, and which demands admir-
alton and respect from all mankind.
When the nation and the world IN its
infancy knew BENJAMIN Franklin-and
when his discovery of electricity as
founded the people of all ChristendOm-
little did the thought come to mind that
at some time in the history of the world
his newly discovered power would have
OF gain the prestige to make a nation
the greatest on the face of the earth.
But such has been the value of his dis
covery. What with our mighty tele
graph and telephone, the great Atlantic
cable, our street railway system, and all
lightning fluid as yet only developed in
the Electric Era? To this we answer
no. But it remains yet to be seen
whether the great Edison or some other
genius will bring the power entirely
within the control of the electrician.
Innumerable have been the experiments
and tests in days gone by, but to the
California Wine House may be truth
fully accredited the honor of being the
first to force the power to assert itself
at the will of man.
In their magnificent Cafe on East
Seventh street they will display
Tor the first time this evening,
and extending throughout the holt
day season, a design which must
arouse the admiration and respect for
that already referred to. 1t is that of
All immense American Flag, of regula
ton design and garrison size, 10X16 feet
i'll its dimensions. The flag is formed
of about 400 full 16-candle power lncan-
descent lamps, arranged in red, white
and blue, with stars and stripes truly
proportioned. The design has been pur-
chased at cost of over one thousand
dollars. This electrical picture will be
striking in its wealth of light and color,
magnificent i'll its execution, and worth
a place among the works of art. 1t
should be seen by every man, woman
and child i'll st. Paul. Those who will
recall the Anchor design on Third
street, during the State Fair illumlna-
ton, as we'll as admired the canopy on
the corner OF Third and Cedar streets.
and WHO stood beneath it spellbound at
its magnificence. will gaze upon the
novel and enormous design tonight at
the California Wine House. and. in
ecstasy, must salute the American Flag.

100000 DAMAGE
Caused by Little Fire and Much
Water.

The most serious fire that has visited
st. Paul for many months occurred
shortly after o'clock yesterday morn
ing. Two large jobbing houses, occu-
plying the Wann block, between Sibley
and Rosabell streets, on East Fourth
street, were the victims of the destroy
ing element. The chief of the fire de-
partment believes the fire originated in
the salesroom of the Nonotuck Silk
company, on the second floor. but others
doubt the correctness of this theory.
Others believe that the ire started in
Samuel Schwab d Brothers notion
store beneath. But that question cuts
10 especial figure, except because of
the fact; for the nonce, the origin is
mystery.
No fire is used in the building. 1t is
heated by steam plant. and this leads
to the supposition that rats got at box
of matches and ignited them. The
goods were combuStible, and the flames
spread rapidly. The fire department
had to do stubborn battle, and the stores
were flooded. The stock that was not
ruined by smoke and fire was destroyed
by water.
The Nonotuck Silk company, as near
as can be estimated by Harry S. Ash,
the manager, suffered loss of $4,000,
and there was only $4,000 insurance on
the same. The stock is total loss
Mr.. Ash agrees with others in the opin-
ion that the fire did not start in his
room. He closed the place up himself at
? O'Clock the previous evening, and
everything was left in good order. He
cannot conceive how a fire could posi-
bly, break out there unless rats got at
box of matches that were on a shelf.
Schwab Bros. occupied the ground
floor and the third floor with a stock Of
notions. They claim they lost $4,000.
and on this they carried Insurance az
gregating $67,500. mostly in companies
represented by j. Quincy Haas, as fol-
