The business was of a

thursday evening. Inc business was OF
routine character
The application for charter to establish
a new lodge in this city is being signed by
quite a number of gentlemen. The docu
ment still remains with Mr.. H. f. Clark,
SO State street, and those wishing to affix
their signatures are requested to call there
as early as convenient.
The Temple of Honor strives to bring
mankind into the closest ties of friendship,
and by this popularity is strong power
for temperance. 1t appeals to the moral
nature of man and endeavors to assist him
in the onward road of reform, taking him
by the hand and leading him upward when
he is too weak to help himself, and thus
making good citizens Everything dis
honorable is eschewed and 1T is as much
violation of the pledge to be impure, unfra-
ternal or truthless as 1T is to drink intoXi-
cants. Its monthly dues are 81 its benefits
S. per week in case of sickness, besides $50
at death. Brothers are required to wait
on and otherwise administer to the SICK,
and see that neither they nor their fam
lilies suffer. Such an order as this must
prosper.
All are invited to thoroughly Investigate
the order and visit at the open meetings of
the lodge during the winter season.

Next Thursday evening there is to be a
Salt Lake Valley lodge and Temple lodge
will be installed. Grand Master Strickley
will have charge of the ceremonies. All
members and visiting brothers are invited
to be present on the occasion.
The interest in this order is gaining
ground in Salt Lake city and throughout
the territory. New lodges are being or
gained; fresh vigor is being infused into
the old ones, and the members are working
for jurisdiction for Utah with strong
hope Of success. In accordance with sug-
gestion made by the supreme master work
man at the last session of the supreme
| lodge, and in compliance with the follow
ing resolution adopted by the supreme body ::
"Resolved, That January Is, the ami
versary of the death of John j. Upchurch,
the founder of the A. o. U, W., be set apart
=, as memorial day, and that due proclama-
ton be annually made by the supreme mas
ter workman, requesting that subordinate
lodges of the order observe this day in an
appropriate manner in memory of their
deceased brother"

Kinsley, issued proclamation. setting

mortal day of the Ancient Order of United
