Imported Cigars.

lOAolS.
After the banquet was ended, Po-
tentate Clark proposed a toast to Cy-
rus w. Fields, illustrious potentate of
San Francisco, and the mobiles of the
Shrine, which was drank standing.
The Pilgrim on the Desert was the
next toast, and was responded to by
Noble j. F. Jack. The travel across
the sands. said Mr.. Jack, was some
what typical of human life. The weary
sands remind us of the struggles which
we undergo in combating the troubles
which beset US. But we find in the
desert at times an oasis where we sit
down in the shade of trees. The sands,
however, make US appreciate the rest
which comes after the journey. So are
we taught that after the struggle comes
peace. Beyond this life we expect to
find a home which shall contrast as
favorably with the pleasures of our
earthly existence as do the moments of
bliss which we enjoy here with the
tribulations we undergo in living out
our span here below
Our Novices'' was responded to by
Hon. David Evans of Ogden. Mr.
Evans said while the noble may have
had lot of sport out of the travel,
he had undertaken it was no joke with
him. He had heard a lot of talk about
oasis but he did not find one on
his trip. If there was any friend OF
any noble present who thought he
would like to come in and make a pill
grimage, tell him to go and accumu-
late an attack of heart disease in

attempted to climb the ladder the
quicker he slid down.

Masonry, if this is one. is surprise.
This one is the greatest of all. It is

Shrine than in any other.
The speaker closed his speech with a
high tribute to the teachings of Ma
sorry.

Masons Point of View Allah is

one powerful cause contributing to

Speaking of the attitude of busi-

Jones said: Business men as a

was made on their minds by the pre-
dictions of hard times in case of
Bryan's election. A few days be-
fore election interest went up, and
the business men argued that if the
mere apprehension of Bryan's elec
ton had that effect the result Of his
election sure enough would be that
much worse on them
Thousands aud thousands in the

that the purchase is made directly for

would be distress of a severe kind in
many districts but no actual famine.
There can now be no really extensive
famine in ireland, the arrangements
for relief having been SO perfected
that the central authorities in Dublin
can assist the local authorities at
almost moments notice. Into the
question of the suspension of rent
payments by the farmers, the officials
interviewed declined to 60 From
sources it can be affirmed that the
Dublin castle authorities have been
warned of the wholesale refusal of the
smaller farmers to pay their rents on
the simple ground of inability. Their
crops have been destroyed and they
have nothing to pay rent with. There
has been up till now a remarkable
absence of agrarisn crime in Ireland

will be renewed, unless the landlords
