The Washington correspondent of the
New York Press says it has been figured
out from the "official tab kept at admins
tration headquarters" that up to Monday
evening the states which have INSTRUCTED
delegates as a body TO vote for the renomi-
nation of President Harrison will send to
the Minneapolis convention 154 delegates,
as follows: Florida 8, North Carolina %,
South Carolina IS, Georgia .26, Indiana 80
Missouri "a, Nebraska 16." In the states
which have failed to instruct are some dele
gates who have voluntarily indicated their
preference for Harrison. Counting all such
delegates, aud others who have not inii-
Gated a preference but are pretty sure to
be brought in line by the
administration whips. the administration
tabn keeper concludes that Harrison now
has 225 delegates ''sure." Inasmuch as it
will take 425 delegates to control the con-
vention, it seems that Mr.. Harrison is still
far from being the inevitable candidate, as
it was thought Mr.. Blaine's retirement
would make him. the booming of other
candidates, and the stress laid upon the ad-
vantage Of having uninstructed delegations
by the republican press makes it appear
that there has arisen crisis in the Presi-
dents candidacy.

It's Lodge Rooms.
A Reading Room Being Fitted Up in
Handsome Style-Ann1versaryC ele-
bration April 90.

Pythagoras Lodge No. %, indie
pendent Order of Odd Fellows, not to
be outdone in anything, is making
noticeable improvements in lis lodge
room. This order, as is pretty gen.
orally known, owns one of the best
buildings in GAINESVILLE, namely, the
Northern Bank building, at the cor
ner of Franklin and Second streets.
1t is an imposing brick structure look
Ing down from a three-story eleva-
ton and the passer-by, and speaking
volumes for the prosperity of the
order. 1t is not only monument to
the work of the individual members
of the order, but it is an ornament tc
the city. This lodge reaches out and
takes in q large membership, com.
posed of representative men OF
GAINESVILLE. 1t now numbers about
one hundred and twelve members
and they are all good citizens.
The Improvements in their lodge
room, mentioned above, are destined
to make the same more interesting
and attractive to the members. The
leading feature in this " ill be the adj
dition of good library. The read
ing room has just been fitted up new,
with elegant tables and chairs, fin
ished in.ahtique oak. i Brussels car
pets now cover the floor and the
walls of the room have been
given new coat of hand
some wall paper. The wood eX-
posures have all been newly var
nished and altogether it is one of the
neate5t, cosiest rooms in the city.
There will be celebration by
Pythagoras Lodge on April rs in
honor of the seventy-third anniver-
sary of the order in America, and
while the program is not entirely
completed, enough has been done to
insure an attractive day.
Pythagoras Lodge WAS instituted
nearly fifty years ago, and its growth
has been steady during that period.
1t has carried as much consolation to
the breasts of those in trouble as any
order in the city. Its record stands,
however, as a monument to its own
glory, and nothing the LEAF-CHRoN-
ICLE could say would add much
thereto. The milk of human kind
ness abounds in its members, and
mankind is being made better by
their work.
