1t Did Not Pass.

A number Of exchanges. and some Of them
fraternaI organs. have published recently that
the proposition to Issue $1,000 certificate by
the A. o. q, W. passed at The recent session Of
the supreme body. Such however, was not the
case. When the proposition was presented a
discussion arose upon the question TO consider
the matter in committee of the whole, and upon
this rollcall vote was ordered as test, it be-
ing held that II the said vote was a two-thirds
one it insured the success of the proposition.
The consideration by said committee was or.
dered, and after discussion the committee on
laws was requested TO prepare the necessary
constitutional amendments to issue such a GER
tificate.
The committee on laws formulated the de-
sired legislation, but when their report came
up before the supreme body for constitutional
adoption, JWo-thrdS did not favor 1t, 1t being
lost by some thirty-eight votes, or the number
cast by a single Jurisdiction, namely, MasSa-
chuse Is, which voted against the measure;
whereas, had the vote of the State been favor
able ii would have been adopted 1t WAS The
vote In committee OF the whole which, tele
grapbed throughout the country, led the papers
astray upon the decision of the case.
The great majority OF the jurisdictions and
OF the masses is in favor of the $1,000 certii-
cate, and il Is but question Of time when it
will be adopted, but the Supreme Lodge is a
conservative one. and several OF the yoIes ad-
verse TO the proposition were cast because the
representatives preferred to have an express
sion of opinion from their grand bodies before
adopting so vital change.

STELLER'S SEA LION.
In Temper He Is More Lionlilze Than tho
Lion Himself.

Lion Himself.
Steller's sea lion is the king Of the
pinnipeds. Unlike nearly all other SCI.
animals that have been gloriously mis-
named after familiar land quadrupeds,
his appearance is quite iiiioilize, partic-
ularly his massive head and ferocious
countenance and his pow ~ful neck,
ooyered with long, coarse hair of a
tawny gray color. While he does not
soar quite SO thunderously as the king
of the desert, he rOars much oftener
and more universally. In temper he is
more lionlike than the lion himself, for
the old males are continually fighting
and cutting each other with their long
teeth in a way that real lions never
dream Of. They are timid and afraid in
the presence Of their master-man-
but so is the lion also, for that matter,
though he is not stupid idiot, like tho
sea lion.
Steller's sea lion is at home in various
places in North America, from the Far
alone islands and Point Reys, near San
Francisco, northward along the Pacific
coast to the Pribilof islands. He loves
the most rugged and rocky shores, where
the breakers thunder INCREASINGLY
against the foot Of tall black cliffs. 1t
is on the Pribilof islands, however, that
this animal may be seen in the greatest
numbers and at his best The herds that
make that wild spot their home number
many thousand individuals. The herd
that freqnents the northeast point of
st. Paul's island is drawn upon by tho
natives for food and other purposes as
regularly as if it werea big herd of cat
