The Knights of-Pythias grand
lodge came to a close Wednesday.
This session OF the loGg has been
one of the most successful and most
largely attended Of any in the his
tory of the order in this state.
Nearly fifty delegates have been
present, and the greatest unanirnity
has prevailed during the entire
session.
One of the important matters up
for discussion before the lodge was
the adyisability of dispensing with
the three trustees and three trib-
unes. which would reduce the ex-
penses of the lodge in great
measure. The matter, however,
laid over until the next meeting.
A resolution was passed instruct
ing the supreme representative OF
the lodge to use every possible in
Auence at the meeting of the
supreme lodge to have official
recognition taken Of the Pythian
sisters, who are commonly known
as the Rathbone sisters. At the
present time this organization is
not recognized as an adjunct Of the
Knights of Pythias.
Wallace was chosen as the next
place of meeting for the grand
lodge, which will be held on the
third Tuesday in September, 1898.
The election of officers for the
grand lodge for the ensuing year
resulted as follows:
J. R Hall, Moscow, grand chan.
cellor.
Arch Cunningham Of Boise, grand
vice chancellor.
George E. Erb, Lewiston, grand
prelate.
J. E. Clyde of Wardner, grand
master at arms.
j. H. Harte of Ceur d'AIene, re-
elected grand keeper OF records and
seal.
A. ". Post Of Rathdrum, re.
elected grand master of exehequer
o. D. Jones of Murray, grand
inner guard.
f L. Cruikshank of Montpelier,
grand outer guard.
J. f. Van Allen of Wardner

]. B. Bristine of Poeatello, grand
tribune for three years.
T. N. Barnard of Wallace, grand
tribune for two years.
J. w. Daniels of Boise, reelected
supreme representative.

MINISTER'S COUNSEL DESERTS HIM.
The Action Arose from an Attempt 60
Force the OIL Magnatc 60 Pay In
tercst on $4,000 Worth
OF Bonds.

NEW YORK, Oct. G.--The suit Of the
Rev. DR.. Daniel c. Pottee against John
ID. Rockefeller for S25O,0OO damages for
libel came up in part III. of the SUI
preme a)urt. Or. Potter whose counsel,
A c. Vanderpool had he said forsak-
en- him, asked for continuance Of the
case but Judge Gildersleeve declined &c
continue it and dismissed the COM
plaint. Or. Potter says he win reopen
the case at once.
The suit is one Of the numerous chap
ters in the history Of the troubles of the
Baptist Tabernacle church. at Second
avenue and Tenth street, from which
Dr. Potter was ousted a few months
ago.
When the case was called. DR.. Pot
ter said that his papers had been re-
turned TO him. He asked for a contin-
uance.
George w. Murray, for the defendant,
said that he was ready TO go on with
the case, and thought the plaintiff was
only bringing forward another Of the
excuses Of which he seemed to have an
unlimited supply.
Judge Gildersleeve said he believed
the reason DR.. Potter's counsel failed
to appear was because he did not have
the moral courage to come forward aud
ask for another continuance after
bringing up SO many excuses and caus-
ing so many delays The judge said
