ance during the week. The finest were
resting. Only those detailed for regular
beat duty were out. No crowds congre-
gated.

MASONIC NOTES,

Rising Sun lodge has just received a handsome silver-mounted sword from Cornthian lodge of Bridgeport, large new Bible from Worthy Master Frank J. Kllborn, aud fine set of working tools in a neat case from K. G. Clark. These gifts were entirely unexpected, and are very acceptable at this time, as all the paraphernalia of the lodge was destroy ed in the late fire. The fraternal feeling which prompted their bestowal will be long and pleasantly remembered by the members of Rising Sun lodge. The case of working tools is especially valued, being the work of Brother Clark's own hands.
 The Masonic hall in Watts new block will be ready for furnishing in the near future.
