EXPOSING MASONRY.
Rev MIR. Fenton of ST. Paul Makes an
Attack on Masonry.

Rev. Mr.. Fenton, Free Methodist
preacher, of ST. Paul, held forth at the
court house Wednesday evening in an
attempt to expose Free Masonary from
biblical standpoint. The speaker at
tempted to expose too much in one
night and as a result many of his state
ments went unsupported. He claims
that it was an easy matter to trace
back, centuries ago, to show that
Masonry was founded upon Pagan
mythology and that it worshipped what
he called sungods, which in his opinion
was contary to the laws of religion and
an abomination in the sight of the
Lord. He exposed" the first degree
of Masonry in which the speaker found
some terrible things. Free Masonry
as it is known and practiced in Mitchell
will never injure, but on the contrary
it has been help and a blessing to
many men.
The audience which listened to Rev.
Mr.. Fenton's remarks was very limited
in number and when he had finished
there were probably dozen people in
the house. Mr.. Fenton takes up col
lection to help defray the expenses Of
his exposures. At Mt. Vernon he
lectured two nights and collected $l.50.
At Mitchell his collection did not eX-
ceed ten cents, consequently exposing
Free Masonry is not a very lucrative
emplOVment

The Sir Knights Devotion.

In the afternoon at three O'clock the
knight Templars of St. Bernard Com
mandery met in their asylum and
marched to- St. Mary's Episcopal church,
where they listened to an excellent
discourse by Rev. j. H. Babcock, pre-
late of the Commandery. The musical
part of the program was an interesting 6
feature, which was rendered by Misses
Miner and Wedehase and Messrs

PROBABLY WON'T BUILD.
The Opera House Scheme by JOS Scheuer
May Not Be Carried Out.

The Opera House Scheme by Jos Scheuer
May Not Be Carried Out.
There seems to be probability now
that the chances for converting the
Koch building into an opera house are
growing smaller. When Mr.. Scheuer
of Milwaukee, the owner of the build
ing, was here several months ago he
seemed thoroughly imbued with the
idea that with his building converted
into an opera house it would be a pay
ing investment. Mr.. Scheuer's propo-
sition was to the effect that he would
have invested in the property, when
completed, about $l2, 900, and asked a
committee Of business men to guaran-
tee an income of per cent. on the in
vestment. Two gentlemen agreed to
guarantee him $500 per year for two
years and it was thought that Mr..
Scheuer would look favorably upon the
proposition. Tuesday J. K. Smith re.
ceiyed letter from Mr.. scheuer ir
which he disregards his first offer and
makes another proposition, which the
two guarantors in the other deal viii
not entertain for a moment. 1t woulG
seem that all negotiations were off anc
unless Mr.. Scheuer modifes his las
proposition one of the former opers
house schemes will be taken up
Mitchell is in need Of an opera house
and some of the former plans can Ger
tainly be made feasible.

St. Mary's Church.

The services Of St. Marys Episcopal
church on Sunday morning, being
Easter Sunday, was very largely at
tended. The church had beautiful
being decorated with fine
palms, lilies ana other flowers of rare
species. The Rev. J. H. Babcock con-
Quoted the full service. His sermon
was impressive explaining that Easter
Day is the Lords day. He then admin
istered the Holy sacrement to a num-
Der of communicates in his usual etfici-
ent manner. The Sunday school then
held its annual Easter celebration. In
the evening the congregation as
sembled to hear the annual report OF
the minister and the officers Of the
mission. Both reports were received
by acclamation. The church proved
herself to be in good standing and that
after paying all indebtedness leaves a
very handsome sum in the treasury
This must be very gratifying to its
members and to the retiring officers,
namely the warden, treasurer and
clerk. These officers having served
for several years AID expressed {
wish to retire, their designations where
very reluctently accepted and new
officers were at once nominated for the
approval Of the bishop. The old officer:
received the sincere thanks of the
rector and the entire congregation.

At the Methodist Church.

Services at the M. F.. church were
held both morning and evening, the
church being very handsomely and
tastily decorated with flowers. In the
evening a musical and literary pro-
gram was given under the direction OF
Supt. McDougall OF the Sunday School.
Rev. Mr.. Bradford's sermon during
the morning service contained some
good,thoughts for future reflection on
the incidents of the celebration oi
Easter Sunday.

Struck Il Splendid Flow,

Martin Gleeson, living in Perry town
ship, has been having w. w. Hover
at work on an artesian we'll and Friday
evening they were rewarded by secur-
ing, what Mr. Gleeson claims, the Sec
ond largest flow in the county. The
we'll is 26O feet deep and disgorges 200
gallons of water minute. Such an
immense success will undoubtedly stim-
ulate other farmers in that vicinity
to go for the same volume of water
Mr.. Gleeson intends to do some irrigat-
ing this season.
