A Remalkabie Record.

Among the 700 Maeca bees Oh
January LIST, 1882, there my have
been some who dreamed Of the
time when the Order would num-
Der its 100000 members, when it
would become g power among the
fraternal beneficiary organiza-
tions of the land in their mission
of protecting the widow and the
fatherIess. This is no longer a
dream, but reality. They be-
gin the year 1898 with member
ship Of 99,3l8, fourth in numeri-
cal strength among the great or
ganizations composing the Nation
al Fraternal Congress, and enjoy
ing greater prosperity than ever
before. The history of this Order
has been a most remarkable one,
even from the day of its birth, but
the year 1892 eclipses all that
have gone before.
One OF the most gratifying re-
suits OF the year is that the large
amount OF money end great num-
Der of death and disability claims
have been paid at less expense to
the members than in the year
previous, one asses ment less be-
ing called in 1892 than in 1891.
The deaths have been less than
five to each 1905 meu. bers. This
is a very low rate for all organiza-
ton of its age, and evidences the
care taken IN the selection of mem
bers.
The cost 10 members under 35
years Of age in the Supreme Tent
during the past year. exclusive of
Tent dues, was S6 for each 1000
of life benefits carried; at 45
years it was 50 per 81 600.
In the Great Camp it WAS Sc
for 81, 600 at the age of 80, and
$3.50 at the age Of 46.
The total amount OF death and
disability claims paid by the Or
der since its organization to Jan.
lst 1898, is S1,912,5S7.75, every
claim being paid Immediately on
presentation of proper proofs.
The Order is now established IN
20 states and provinces, and grow
ing more rapidly than any other
similar gooiety of the country, as
is shown by its business for
December, when it received over
$500 applications for member
ship and organized over 60 sub
ordinate branches.
Its equitable plan, careful and
conservative methods. immediate
payment OF all just claims, enter
prising, yet economical manage
ment and the zeal and ability
displayed by its executive officers
have won for it the commanding
place it occupies to-day in the
estimation of ell who haYe be-
come acquainted with its work.
That it is destined IN the near fu-
ture TO become the leading ben
efciary order of the country there
seems little doubt.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 20, '93
From Our Regular Correspondent

From Our Regular Correspondent
1he President is as proud OF
the legislation which placed the
finest steamships in the world
under the American flag as ofany
single accomplishment Of his adj
ministration, and 1t is his inten-
ton, unless something occurs to
prevent, to go over to New York
on the 22d-fitting day for such
deed-in order to raise with his
own hands the stars and stripes
over the magnificent steamship
New York. The President ex
poets to be accompanied from
Washington by his entire cabinet
and a umber of prominent Con
gressmen if they can get away }
and other officials. The Z. s.
cruiser Chicago, now in New
York harbor, will fire the national
salute of twenty-one guns, as "olo
glory reaches the mast head OF
the New York.
The treaty for the annexation
of Hawaii, which was sent to the
Senate last week, has been favor
ably reported from the committee
on Foreign Relations, and al
though there is some opposition
IN both pelties it Is regarded as 3
certainty that more than the nee
essRry two-thirds VIII vote for its
ratification.
Both the President and Secre-
tary Foster have become convinc-
ed that the recent and continued
demand for gold Is largely artlfi-
cial, manufactured for the express
purpose of trying to compel an
issue of bonds, and for that rea-
son they have both arrived at the
conclusion that no bonds shall be
Issued during this administration.
Senator Sherman's amendment
has been adopted by the Senate,
authorizing the Sec. of the Treas
ury to issue $4,000, 900, III per-
cent five year bonds whenever in
his discretion it becomes necessary
to keep up the Treasury gold re-
serve. The bonds could be issued
under present laws, but they
would have to bear 4 per cent in
terest and to run for long per-
iod, hence this amendment.
The democrats in the House
tried to cripple the federal super
vision of Congressional elections
by attaching an amendment to the
Sundrv Civil Appropriation bill,
prohibiting the payment of any
expenses incurred by prosecution
under the laws relating to the
election of Members of Congress.
The Senate promptly struck out
the amendment as soon as the bill
was taken up. The gentlemen
who are SO anxious to put stop
to federal supervision cf elections
will have TO wait until the next
Congress gets together; this Sem
ate will not sanction any of their
schemes, no matter how cleverly
they may be disguised.
The pension laws will not be
turned upside dowr at this session
of Congress, although there was
strong effort towards that end
made by the anti-soidiar demo-
Gratis, resulting in three minute
free fight on the floor Of the
House.
1t is significant that Represen-
tatiye Compton, of Maryland, who
is probably closer to Senator Cor
man politically than any man liv-
ing, should be the most outspoken
man in Congress against the selec-
tions already made for the cabi-
net. A republican friend, joking
Compton, said to him: "If YOU
keep up your criticism syoa viii |
find no place at the patronage

BoMBsHELL FOUND.
Under a Germans House Below
Smiths Bridge.

A German named Looming, living
below Smiths bridge, called at the
Police Station this morning with
sixty pound bombshell. Looming
stated that he had found the shell
underneath the house under his bed
room, and was of the belief that
some enemy was conspiring to blow
him up. He left the shell at the
Station.
1t was rusty and had evidently
been lying in water some time. The
shell looked so dangerous that a
tag was put on it to keep over
curious persons from monkeying
with it.
If the death-dealing piece of am
munition had been placed under
Looning's house by an enemy, the
fellow would likely have taken but
one risk of being caught, and set off
the fuse when he deposited the

Send a New Minister to Hawaii.


One of the first appointments of
President Cleveland should be a
Minister to Hawaii to supersede Mr.
John l.. Stevens.
Our diplomatic annals do not
show more extraordinary or un-
warranted course on the part of an
American Minister in foreign coun-
try than that pursued by our repre-
sentative at Honolulu in this annex
alton business.
1t is we'll settled that in case of
revolution the attitude of a diplo-
matte representative must be one Of
strict neutrality, and that the United
States naval forces can be landed
and used only for the protection, in
case of necessity, of the lives and
property of law abiding, -rartici-
pating American citizens.
Yet the deposed Queen of Hawaii
has formally protested that she
yielded not to the e'revolutionists but
to the power of the United States,
and, unfortunately, there is much to
give color to that complaint. There
is no dispute that Minister Stevens
proclaimed protec,orate in the
name of the United States and sup
ported it by naval force. How ex-
traordinary and unwarranted this
proceeding was may be inferred from
the fact that not even the President
himself has the constitutional
authority to do such a thing.
The course of Minister Stevens
calls for prompt and emphatic dis
approval from the new administra
| tion.-NeW York Herald.

TUG-OF-WAR.
Hawaii and Portugal Tie for First
Place.

Hawaii and Portugal Tie for First
Place.
The tug-of-war matches at the
Beretania street Armory yesterday
evening was not as largely attended
as the previous night. The contests
were short, sharp and decisive. Ha-
waii and America met in the initial
pull, when the Americans met their
Waterloo in just four minutes.
Weight told on the American team
and once the hemp began to move
it kept moving.
At S:l9 Japan and Germany
mounted the platform and the re-
feree's popgun went off. The Japs
held the Teutons down for half a
minute, when the rope began to slip
through their hands, and, just q
minutes from the start, the ribbon
crossed the six-foot limit. Victory
for Germany. The Japs were so
surprised that they did not seem to
realize how it was done.
The Portuguese and English teams
contested the next pull. The Bri-
tons had evidently been practicing
outside on something other than
cordage. Portugal had two new
men. At 1892 start was made and
slowly but surely the ribbon travelled
toward Portugal. As early as S:37
its course was run. Victory for
Portugal. Time, 5 minutes.

Nothing less than an humble apol

the paper in question. Papers all

nantly commenting on the ill-man-

Queen in connection with the Wiltse
ball. The offense was aggravated
by repetition in the Advertiser.
That paper and its party can now
have the satisfaction of knowing
that the insult referred to has had
no small influence in creating the
revulsion against the whole annexa-
ton scheme which is growing
throughout the United States.
