GRAND LODGE OF MASONS
In Session at Decentralization OF
Widows and Orphans Home.

Houston, Tex, Dec. 1.-(Special)-
The most worshipful grand lodge of Tex.
as, Ancient Free and Accepted Masons
met in its siXty-first annual convention
at 10 o'clock this morning in the Masonic
temple.
After Grand Master Alternately and
Deputy Grand Master Watkins had de-
livered their annual address, the com
mittee on credentials made their report.
The most worshipful grand master an
nounced the standing committee.
The location of the Masonic widows
and orphans home is probably the most
important question that will come be-
fore the grand lodge at its present ses-
sion. ....
There are upon the roster 1888 living
chapters. OF these 80 have done no
work during the year; 6S show a gain;
SO show a loss and II have held their
own.
The fOrty-seventh annual convention
of the Most Eminent Grand Royal Arch
Chapter of Texas, began this afternoon
at 2 O'clock The board of directors of
the Masonic widows and orphans home
finished their report sooner than was eX-
pccted, and it was presented to the grand
lodge tonight and made the special order
for 10 a. m. Thursday. The directors
say in the, report that they have re-
ceived number of propositions for loca-
ton of the home, some of them in the
shape of outright donations and some
to sell at low figures.
TIE directors have not considered any of
the propositions to sell. OF the locations
which have offered donations the direct
Ors or some of them have visited and
inspected North Galveston,
Temple, Corsicana Greenville, San Mar
cos, Cleburne and Bolton and have also
visited the cities of Waco, Fort Worth
and Dallas with the expectation that
they would make offers.
All things considered the directors con-
slider North Galveston the best location
md recommend the same for adoption as
he site of the home.

was telephoned here this morning OF the
burning of the county court house at

design and was built in the early and

cost OF $4,000. 1t was insured FOR
