THE SECRET SOCIETIES.
"a M~OGULLIANs.

Last Monday evening Conclave lodge
No. 20, Mog6llians, held an important
meeting at their hall on the South Side,
officers being elected and installed.
They also had a candidate, Brother
VIM. G. Dlckman, who was with much
ceremony introduced to his royal high
ness the Master Mogul, over which
there was quite a racket, as Brother
Shafer says, the storm overcOat being
much too large for the candidate.
Brother Steinhouser being too weak to
gather it up 10 the back, buckles had to
to be used. The Master MOgul then de-
clared it was just the ht like de paper
on de wall. The ship being ready to
sail, the candidate first took a good
turn st the coffee mill. He then
sailed" BY a little kind %persuading
be was induced to make a speech, sing
and swim. Being much exhausted, he
partook of the life everlasting flowing
bowl. The racket was then concluded
by singing:
Young Mother Hubbard went to the cup
board,
But she did not go there fors bone;
She went for a Mogulian gown TO wear to
town,
And that's what made everybody groan.
The conelSve then adjourned to Bro.
Steurnagle's residence, where refresh
ments were served and a jolly good time
was had. Songs were sang, funny
stories told. such as can only be told
by Bros. Tom Dsignan, Jake Landers,
Gus Schultz and Jake Steurnagle.

On some particular day you may feel

tell her OF your troubles, real or i'm

readily promises to do this and doubt

As fearless equestrienne, she does
honor to her state. She rides like a
Kentuckian.
Miss PETER is the daughter OF the
POpulist senator from Kentucky. Her
father has taken q prominent place in
the Senate chamber. Although the
daughter is a comparatively now conner,
there is 10 doubt but that she will find
her place 10 the social world.
Miss PETER is the oldest white native
of FredOnia. Kan, which argues for
youth OF that doursbing town rather
than for the age Of Miss PETER. 1t vas

whom she considers the equal OF her
adored father she shall not change her
name.

EASTERN STARS.

Merriam Chapter No. 1 was very well
represented at it's meeting last Tuesday
evening although it was a most dis
agreeable evening without on account
of the effects of a binding rain and a
clouded sky, which hid the stars In the
ornament, but 1t did not hide all of the
Meriams for they came forth and
shone In the Masonic family
cluster with exceeding brlllisncy, and
they also added during the evening
two more stars TO its already great con-
stellation, which abounds in our great
country, and which numbers more than
100, 900 at the present time. If the
brethren OF our city would just think
for a moment what a great good can be
done for our institution by the uniting
of 100, 900 Masonic families in the
United States, they would be anxious
to join with them, and desire the order
in the near future TO double itself with
their assistance. Let every family in
Wheeling be a star in Miriam's crown.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. IT, 1898. A
rather remarkable popularity about
Washington's pretty girls is-that they
are not Washington girls. Like WASH
ington society, they are OF somewhat
composite order. Many Of the fair
maids, tits true, have dim recollection
OF any other habitation than Washing
Con, and II sentiment could control the
location OF ones donicile, and some
be in fact, where the heart IS" the
nations capital might claim them Tor
its own.
So It happens that from Maine to
California, from the frozen northland
10 the sunny south, the iairest or the
nation are gathered. The daughters OF
statesmen be come Washington bellies.
Kentucky disputes with washington
the honor OF naming Miss Lucille
Blackburn among its brightest soclal
lights. Miss Blackburn is the daughter
Of the distinguished senator IRON the
Blue Grass state, whose ''Silyer" utter
ances were counted among the most
powerful appeals for the white metal
IN the recent senatorial controversy.

abroad enables her TO bring to a high
state OF perfection her tavorlte study,
the modern languages. Her huency as
alinRuist renders her exceptionally we'll

Miss Herbert Is petite In stature--mig-
nome the French would call her-has
dainty features, the tint of a lily, bright
ewes and q wealth Of golden tresses that
the wears most becomingly coiled like

branch Of the administration party"

Miss Thompson, daughter Of eX-Rep-

contributed by Kentucky to Washing
ton, a gracious act for which the social
world OF the capital should be Profound
~ grateful, for Miss Thompson has
been one OF its brightest ornaments.
The "has been" does not imply advanc-
ing years nor passing charms, but Is an
intimation Of the fact that the fair lady
has chosen new fields OF conquest,
where she will reign no longer as maid,
but as matron. Washingtons loss will
be New York's gain. A New York
editor has won, and loon will wed. the

grandfather, although in a profession
quite opposite to that OF the stage, was
of q very dramatic temperament, and
was a close student of Shakespeare and
the other famous dramatistS.
Her mother inherited the tempera-
ment of the father, and an intensified
love for all things theatrical; she made
a brilliant success as an amatuer act
ress, and strongly desired to adopt the
stage as a profession.
But family association and family po-
sltion kept her from ID, so with a regret
deeper than she ever can express she
gave up
THE DESIRE OF HEART,
married and went away TO South Amer
lea to live, where her family Of children
were born.
This little one seemed to have all her
mothers talent intensified by its forced
repression, so that it attained the point
Of genius.
1t was evident from the time she be-
gan to speak that she was born for the
profession, and her mother was deter
mined that her taste and talent should
find free vent.
She did not intend that she should be-
gin a professional career so early, but
stress Of circumstances seemed to force
her into the work, and it was a great
help at a very critical time that the
child should find so congenial q position
as she has held with Mr.. Rice.
When it was announced In New York
that she was to appear, family pride
rose in arms and MIR. Gerry, as n friend
of the family. stepped In to interfere.
For many months the little one was
held back, and her mother had many
painful and embarrassing experiences.
But the way was opened.
A place was made for her In "1492,"
and when
THE NEW OPERA OF "vENUs"
was proposed the part of Cupid was
fitted to her.
She is a thorough little artist, and
| enjoys playing as much as the public
delights to see her. The intelligence
with which she speaks her lines is won
derful, but when one sees her and talks
with her of the stage be discovers that
IL is a natural intelligence, and that
there Is nothing forced about 1t.
Her mother has been her only teacher,
both in acting aud dancing, and she
has provsn a wise teacher. True. she
has mad a wonderful pupil, but even
then a less wise person might have
spoiled her.
II is not the intention OF the mother
| that R~egaloncita should be trained as
a dancer. She does not believe in per-
manent dancing, and after the little
one is 10 she will not be allowed to
dance, but will be trained for legiti-
mate work in drama.
The other children are equally gifted,
and the mother has written a play
which the three children act most
beautifully. 1t is her intention to give
it at a matinee as soon as she can ar
range for 1t.
Little Reg" is a happy, pleasure
loving child, devoted to her family OF
dolls, and enjoying a good out OF door
game of romps. She is healthy and
hearty, and there isn't q touch OF un-
natural morbidness about hers Here
ia Just a happy child. with a sunny
nature, bubbling over with animal
spirits, and just as carefully rendered
and guarded as yours, dear madam OF
