CHANGES IN CONSTITUTION
Will Be Advocated at Next Meeting Of N. ! S.
"A. 10 Occur, March g.,

At the annual meeting of the Maine
Interscholastic Athletic Association, to
take place. March 6, it is understood.
an important change in the constitu-
ton will be advocated. which is
thought necessary from the large num-
Der of entries made at some OF the re-
cent meets: the last. for instance. held
at Waterville. when in one event, there
were - entries made. 1t was the
ouarter-mle run. There were not
nearly that number of starters.
The change proposed is TO provide
that for each entry made, the school
making the same shall pay 81. If the
man entered takes part. this dollar is
refunded. If not it will go TO the as
ISOLATION. This will keep the lists up
to the entries, and there will he less
of the contest played in the newspa-
pers beforehand. On account of a
change in the constitution being pro-
posed, notices will have to he sent out
10 days before the time, and they will
be soon mailed to the seven schools in
the association. 1t is expected that the
Higgins Classical Institute will be adj
mitted at the next meeting.
. The certificates will be presented the
winners of last seasons meeting, this
week The only one to come to Au-
2usta will be the second in the stand
ing high jump, which was taken by w.

VALUABLE STATISTICS.
Facts Tor Odd Fellows Published BY Grand
Secretary Davis.

Joshua Davis of this city. grand secre-
.tary OF the-Grand Lodge OF Maine. l. y.
o. E.. has completed the tabulation OF the
annual returns OF Us subordinate and the
Il Rebekah lodges in this jurisdiction
and is able to present some valuable and
interesting statistics. The reports cover
the year 1856 and are made up to the first
day OF January OF the present year
The year 1896 was one of general depres-
sion. and secret societies as well as other
institutions felt its influence. II Is graft
flying TO state. however. that the suborti-
nate and Rebekah lodges made handsome
gains in membership, while the former
added $3l 900 to its han property and cash
assets. The invested funds of the subordi-
$50. Is. Seventeen hundred and nineteen
brothers ana IS widowed families were
relieved during the year. to whom $780,
l23.@ was paid. The total receipts OF
the subordinate lodges We're $751; 81 90.
OF this sum 1884, 31s5 was paid for lodge
expenses.
The statistics show that in the aggrc-
gate each brother is i'll one week In every
year. The total membershipin Maine is
20.S79, and the total number of weeks
illness was 20,69l.
Again about one Odd Fellow in every
hundred in Maine dies yearly. the mortal
ity last year amounting to 21s. eThese are
valuable statistics for life Insurance and
fraternal society men to remember.
The Rebekahs have made q wonderful
gain during the year and now number
9.597 members. or nearly half of the sub
ordinate membership. This branch is
making great strides and the child will
soon catch up with its parent. Charters
have been granted for two new Rebekah
lodges. one at Houlton and one at Water
borO and they will soon be instituted.
There are several other localities that are
asking for Rebekah petitions.
The grand secretarys office has been
very busy this winter. In addition to re-
ceiving and tabulating the annual re-
turns. which is always done In January.
each subordinate and Rebekah lodge in
the State has received new rituals in eN-
change for their Old ones. This made an
exchange of 6i5 rituals, and gave the ex
press companies considerable revenue. In
addition To all this the grand secretary
has sent out 81. 600 of the new official re-
ceipt for dues. These new certificates
have dual capacity-receipt for dues
and also permits of interstate visitation.
The outlook for the order In Maine the
coming year is bright. Portland is al
ready feeling the impetus given by the new
and elegant quarters in the Baxter build
ing, and candidates are coming TO all the
lodges. Many new society buildings will
be erected the coming year. notably Il $25.
co odd Fellow block at Bar Harbor and
Il $50 600 edifice at WoodfOrds. The end
Of 1897 will show gratifying gains and
doubtless carry the odd Fellow property
in fully three quarters of !, million of dol
lars.-Eastern Argus.
