Fix Elect and Install Overwhelmingly
oils Next Meeting Place..
CINCINNATI, July lit was after ?
a. III. when the grand lodge Of the Be-
nevolent Protective Order of Elks COM
pleted the election of officers and it
was daylight when the new officers
were installed and the grand lodge adj
journeG TO meet at Minneapolis in July,
1897. While the annual reunions in
crease in sizt and interest yearly, it is
universally acknowledged there never
was such a satisfactory meeting as the
one Just closed. While the governing
laws have been changed in many re-
srects the old ritual was adopted in
preference to the new nc. The whole
night was occupied i'll the election and
installation of officers. All these places
were closely contested.
The old factional trouble is pending
as the last business. This relic of the
Atlantic City and Jamestown meetings
was disposed of, the grand lodge restor-
ing Past Exalted Grand Ruler Apperly
of LouisviI >. and not restoring Past
Exalted C4and Secretary Allen O.
Meyers of Cincinnati. A special meet
ing of the Cincinnati lodge has been
called to consider the resolution to ex.
pei Allen y. Meyers from his local
lodge and many visitors remain for
that meeting.

LAssolNG REQUIRES SKILL.
One Man Thought 1t Was Easy and Lost
q Thumb.

Il lost that thumb by knowing too
much" said the old stockman, in an
swer to q query. Il was nothing but a
t%enderfoot, but I thought because l could
rope q calf in q corral that l could do
anything any II else could.
THE first day that I went out with
my rawhide RATA on my saddle some of
the men commenced trying to tell me
how to rope a steer and how to take a
turn around the horn of the saddle with
the RATA when / wanted to hold him,
but l told them I guessed / knew how
to do it, and I'm q thumb shy in conse-
qucnce.
Il chucked the rope on q steer a. he
was running and quickly wound the
RATA around the horn Of the saddle.
There was a jerk, the steer went down,
and my thumb was crushed to q pulp.
I had, in taking q turn with the RATA
around the horn, unwittingly got my
thumb between the rope and the POM
mel. When it frightened l lost my thumb.
when a cowboy holds a loop in his
right hand, ready to throw, his thumb
is pointing from him. After the throw
it is natural for him to let the RATA
slide through his hand from his little
finger toward his thumb, but if he at
tempts to wind it around the saddle
horn in that way it is 10 to l that he
will get his thumb tangled up as did.
After the throw he has to let go Of the
RATA entirely, seize it again, aud as pc
winds it around the saddle horn let it
slip through his hand from his thumb
toward his little finger. Just recollect
that and it may save you a thumb. -

Hulda lay awake half the night medi-

able to her TO have Mr.. Falck divert his
admiration to Magda, why, then, she
had surely deceived herself in believing
that she cared nothing about him She
was much humbled in her estimation of
herself when she arose the next morn

CHAPTER VI


The engagement was little over
week old, and the visits Of presentation
to all the neighboring gentry we're about
to be made vixen the pastor received a
letter from a high official in Christiania
informing him that in accordance with
a recent resolution Of the parliament q
commission had been appointed TO esti-
mate the expenses Of a projected rail
road through the valley and TO stake
out an experimental route. The writer,
who had been friend Of the pastor in
his student days, added that he had
procured an appointment ON the com
mission for a nephew Of his, whose
guardian he had the misfortune to be,
and he begged Mr. Brinclman, for the
sake Of the days of auld lang syne, that
he would keep an eye on the young man
and if possible give him lodgings in his
house. So important a matter could not
be decided without family council,
and Mr. Brinckman and his wife retired
for an hour and a half to the blue room,
where they discussed the proposition in
all its possible and impossible bearings
The first consideration which presented
itself to both was the value Of the great
officials friendship and influence TO
Fritz when in years to come connections
Of that sort would be worth more than
genius, learning or anything that gold
could buy. Secondly, the money which
the young man would pay for his board
might be saved and would go far to-
ward paying for Fritz's schooling in
the city. Neither the pastor nor his wife
liked exactly the way the august uncle
spoke Of his nephew, but as Hulda was
engaged and Magda was good and
obedient girl who would be sure TO be
guided by her parents in matters of the
heart the advantages Of the PROPOSE
ti0n seemed far to outweigh the risks
The pastor had some scruples about
sowing tares in the domestic wheat
field as he expressed it but he was as
usual, oyeTidden by his wife, who de-
clared that she would keep her eyes open
and promptly uproOt the tare If it grew
too Justify or showed the least disposi-
tion to become troublesome. Reassured
by this promise, the pastor aequiesced
and gave his consent A favorable re-
ply was therefore returned, and within
fortnight Olaf Brun, the reprobate
nephew, made his appearance at tho
parsonage. Though the work Of the rail
way commission was not to commence
until the spring, his uncle had seized
the opportunity to remove him from the
temptations Of the capital. in its official
version, however, the incident was in
terpreted 70 mean hat young Mr. Brun
needed rural solitude for the prosecution
of his engineering stndiaa

ous fancy that he displayed symptoms
Of vacillation. He was perhaps begin
ming to weary Of his long, unrewarded
devotion and looking for an excuse for
Kidding himself Of the intangible bonds
that oppressed him. 1t was the sus-
picion that his mood toward her had
undergone this subtle change which
made Hulda redouble her efforts TO keep
him. Her feeling for him was Of n very
mixed and complex kind, and she would
have been unable to give a rational ac-
count Of it, But she was induced TO be-
lieve that the friendship which had
sprung up between them had impercop-
tibly changed to love When she appeal
ed 90 Nj. Falck to help her frustrate
the plot by which he was himself to
benefit, she had by that very appeal
entangled herself in relation 20 him
which involved the success Of the plot
or made it superluous. 1t was terribly
confusing. She gave up all hope Of un-
raveling the tangled skein. But before
the new year was a week old she had
taken her resolve 10 daily no longer

MISSING Mr.. JOHNSON.
A Fishing Trip Which Bad All But Tra~
gic Ending.

Samuel Metoalf called at the police sta
tion late last evening to announce the
death BIZ drowning of William Johnson,
who lives on Plum street.
Fortunately the announcement was
little premature, though Metcalf had good
grounds for making 1t.
He and Johnson had planned to 60
smelt fishing in Back cove. They had
a float, and Metcalf left johnson in it
to go homo and get lunch put MP.
When he returned he found ths float by
the pottery in an inverted position and
his late partner nowhere about. The
inference lie drew was q perfectly natur-
al one, that the missing man was some
where at the bottom of the bay. He noti-
fed the police department, but before
getting out the dredges to rake over back
bay for the body of the lost smelt fish
erman Deputy Sterling made inquiries at
his home.
This move was amply justified by the
fact that johnson was enjoying sound
sleep in bed.
He had tipped over in the float. but
managed to reach shore in somewsy and
then like a sensible man had immediate
ly repaired to his home.
