The Atheneum Fraternity, a new secret
organization which was launched about a
month ago in this city. is about to incorporate
and become a full-felged order. a charter
list of $50 names has been obtained and
with these attached it is proposed to file the
articles of Incorporation at the capital and
in this county during the coming week.
As soon as the articles are filed the orig
inatOrs Of the hCdy propose to push 1t rapidly.
Already preparations are being made for the
employment Of deputies who will go out
into this and adjoining states. The local
lodge will be organized Immediately upon the
filing Of the papers Of incorporation.
The order has the unusual beneficiary fea-
lures. Both men and women are eligible
and they are divided into two glasses, bene-
hciary and social. The age limit is low, 10
years in each class. The beneficiary mem
bers must be between that age and % years

and accident benefits are also paid. The or
DER, however, differs somewhat from others
regarding the method Of paying losses. the
difference being shown in the following para
graph, taken from a circular:
Experience has shown that his class Of
orders have collected too little from some
members and too much Ia required from
others. As an example, the man %hO re-
ceiyes a certificate and dies the first year
has not paid more than $50, his family
receives 81, 400. This is unfair TO the living
members, who must pay the $1,000. The

AN ATTEMPTED HOLD-UP

Exciting Experience Of Nate ]. Tobias Of San
Francisco-Struck Over the
Head

Nate ]. Tobias, the we'll known trav-
cling salesman of Levi Straus & Co. of
San Francisco, figured in an exciting
episode on Monday last, that he is not
likely soon to forget. Mr.. Tobias was at
Santa Ana on business and, following
his usual custom, hired a rig to drive
over to Orange, three miles distant.
When about half way between the two
places Mr.. Tobias was accosted by
trampish-looking individual who called
out to him, at the same time pointing to
the horse, to indicate that there was
break in the harness. Suspecting moth
ing wrong, Mr.. Tobias pulled up and
got out of the buggy to make an inspec-
ton and repair the break before pro-
ceeding on his way. Hardly had he
struck the ground when the man who
had stopped him struck at him with
some sort of weapon, presumably a
sandbag. Fortunately the blow was a
slanting one, and did not knock Mr.. To-
bias down. The travelling man started
for his whip, the only weapon at hand
and the would-be robber realizing that
he had more than he could handle, took
to the bushes.
Mr.. Tobias then drove on to Orange
and transacted his business. He re-
turned to the city yesterday none the
worse for his encounter, except an ugly
cut on the head. 1t was a very close
scratch, and hereafter Mr. Tobias will
go loaded for bear when he Is on his
travels
