At the regular review Of the X. o. r. NJ.
last Friday night much interest was shown
by all present, especially when D. s. c..
Orchard showed his beautiful gold badge.
which he stated was a token Of apprecia-
ton OF the officers of the Supreme Tent at
Port Huron. Mich. for the number of
good. intelligent members he has secured
in the first six months of this year. About
three weeks ago Mr.. Orchard arranged for
the payment OF policy OF 5000 To Mrs.
Thomas Mogan, resident of Fifth street.
Seattle. Mr. Mogan joined the Maccabees
ut Ballard twenty months before his
death, and his benefits while a member.
including fees of joining, cost him only
$35.75. His loved ones received 81 600 in
about thirty days after ms death. The
order is fast becoming strong one. the
increase IN the Supreme Tent for last
month alone being 1000.
A movement is now on foot which will
result in a Maccabee picnic to Seattle
about August - at which all the lodges
in the state of Washington will be present.

AN AUTHORS WIFE.

Count Tolstoi is said to have re-
produced in the courtship Of Levin
and Kitty, in Anna Karenian, where
the lovers only pronounce the first
letters of the words they wish to
say to each other, the woOing of his
wife and himself Madame Tolstoi
is remarkable woman, who re-
ceived di ploma from the Moscow
university It the age of seventeen,
was married when she was eighteen
and her husband twenty years older,
and is now after thirty-one years of
married lite, the mother of nine liv-
ing children and her husbands potent
aid in his literary labors. Until the
children are ten years old she makes
all their clothes. She copies and re-
copies her husbands manuscript, a
task of which the difficulty is in
creased by the self-invented short
hand in which Count Tolstoi sets
down his compositions. Even his
wife is not allowed to interrupt him
when he IS engaged III the first
draught of an important work, and
at such times he writes nearly all
day, and sometimes far into the
night Harper's Bazaar.
