The appointment of committees and
the installation of officers occupied
yesterday the final session Of the grand
lodge Degree of Honor at Central
hail.
Grand Chief of Honor Mary Daley

ing committee on laws: Mrs Alice
Page, of ST. Cloud; Mrs. w. e. Cole.

Glencoe, trustees of the grand lodge.
Mrs. Helen M. Sloggy, of St. Paul, was
elected social editor for the official pa
per, which is to be designated by the
finance committee and the grand chief

Much amusement was created dur
ing the session by an act of sympa-
thetic, motheriy kindness on the part
of Sister DR.. Julia Jacobson, of Min
neapolis. Mystic lodge, of Montevideo.
is the baby lodge of the order. 1t is
but eight days old. yet so strong and
well developed that it is already be-
coming restless. Sister Jacobson, with
in whom the kindness of her sex is
augmented by the benignity of her pro-
fession, took pity upon the fretful in
FAINT, and presented it with a beautiful
rubber rattle. The unhappy infant be-
ing so far from home, if was also pro-
yided with as guardian and a nurse in
the person of Sister Ella Manter, of
Willmar. During the remainder of the
session the tiny lodge was carefully
corralled in the corner of the main
hall. It's joyful crowings over the an
ties of the new rattle in the hands of
the new nurse threatened at times to
disturb the dignified decorum of even
the grand chief of honor.
The installation of the grand officers,
in the afternoon, was presided over by
Grand Master Workman Mccormack
and Past Grand Master Workman Por-
ter, who came over from Market hall
as a, special delegation. Mr. Porter
himself instituted a year ago the
present grand lodge Of the Degree of
| Honor, and he yesterday took occa-
sion to congratulate the lodge upon it's
progress in the ways of United Work
| manship.
Some further routine business was
, next transacted, and the lodge ad-
journed finally, about 5 p. m.
The delegates did not have their
P photographs taken in an artistic group
posed in front of the Central Presby-
b terrain church. They were there on
time, and so were those precious bon
nets, together with variety of pleas
ant looks which have been evolved
from weeks of practice. But the man,
Oh, where was he? Miller, the pho
tographer, is said to have promised
his attendance at the hour of II, but
it was still high noon when fifty
charming women might have been
T seen grouped in statuesque beauty be-
? fore DR.. Carson's church. The boy
who runs errands for the grand chief
was the only male allowed in the hal
lowed vicinity. He afterwards claimed
to have discovered Syengali's won
drous power, and said he could have
kept them there all the afternoon But,
as Sister jacobson remarked, '.Men
are such fibbers." The ladies, how
ever, will never forgive the tardy pho
tographer.
All the members of the Degree of
Honor now in the city will be enter
tanned tonight at Nobility lodge, cor
ner of Seventh and Minnesota streets.
