PYTHIAN NOTES.

Justus H. Rathbone, founder of the
knights of Pythias, died in 1889. He
drew up the original ritual while teach
ing school in the Lake Superior coun-
try. Some time after the organization
of the society in 1864 Rathbone with
drew from the Knights, but entered
their ranks again in 1866. He was Sc
lected TO prepare a revised ritual. Dur
ing his school teaching days he formed
q dramatic society, and among the
plays that he secured to produce was
John Banim's version of Damon and
Pythias.' The play suggested to my
mind the idea of the order" once re-
marked Rathbone, although [ had not
thought of it before. 1t presented itself
when reading over the play at the
school house. It then occurred to me
that there was excellent foundation in
the story of Damon and Pythias for a
fraternaI secret society. The high type
of friendship therein portrayed seemed
to me to be the basis upon which such
society could and should be estab-
lished. Banim changes the position of
the two characters from the historical,
but does not change the character of
their friendship
It is proposed to establish Pythian
home at Hot Springs, Arkansas. The
Grand Lodge of Arkansas has already
voted an appropriation of $4,000 as a
commencement for the fund.

who. with little practice, could compare
favorably with the average back from
the coast, yet Brick Whitehouse, who
is soon to make his home here, and
who champions that position in Cali
fornia, will without a doubt do the
kicking for the team. He is at present
coaching the Colorado School OF Mines
eleven and is expected TO arrive here
about the same date as Cross who is
coaching Stanford. With the assist
ance of these two renowned coaches,
with the material already on hand to
lay the foundation as it were the pub
lie may depend upon the fact that the
team from the Islands will be no or
binary one, as many familiar with the
game would have the public believe.

NOTES.

There are at present more than thir-
ty-eight candidates for positions on the
team which proposes leaving for the
States in December, and they are all
players of experience and mettle.
Foot ball is having quite boom in
Honolulu at present, and if every sea-
son finds the players as enthusiastic,
the game will be as popular here as it
is in the States.
The foot ball players will be subject
ed to the same training rules as fol-
lowed by teams in the States, only
their training will take up a longer
period of time.
During the trip the foot ball boys
will practice signals on the hurricane
deck Of the Australia, and in order to
avoid stiffness will make use of such
articles of muscular development as
are to be found in any gymnasium.
While in San Francisco they will have
the use of the Olympic Club gymna-
SUM and baths, which is the largest
concern of the kind in America.
People who have the success of the
foot ball players at heart advise their
taking with them plenty of poi
Every day witnesses the boys put
ting up a stronger and snapper game,
and by December, if constant in their
work, they should be proficient.
