WILLIAMS, A. T., April 5.-(Special
to The Herald) This afternoon as three
little girls, May Gray, Maggie Brady
and Nellie O'Brien, were lettering on
a log stretched across Cataract creek.
the little Brady girl became dizzy and
fell from the log, little May going into
the water to her assistance. The current
was so swift that she was soon floating
down stream. In the meantime the lit
the Brady girl had clung to some weeds
crawled to the bank Together the
two little girls ran screaming for assist
ance. Prof. Young. hearing their cries,
rushed to where they were. The little
one was carried down the stream near
ly hundred yards. The professor took
the body from the water. 1t was cold and
lifeless. as 1t had remained in the water
about ten minutes. The child's father
was soon there and took the lifeless
body home to the grief-stricken mother.
Little May was a general favorite
among her playmates and was the only
girl of Constable Gray.
Things are on the boom in this vicin-
ity. The Saginaw Lumber company has
a force of men at work putting up
mammoth building to take the place Of
the mill burned last July. They also con-
template putting in an electric light
plant, lighting the town in addition to
the mill.
The mines near the Grand canyon are
attracting attention from outside capt.
talists. The roads are now passable and
forces will be increased as the work
progresses.
Owners of the Last Chance mine con-
template the erection of smelter this
fall. An agent for smelling company
offered to take all the ore he could get
at cents a pound for the copper in it..
Messrs. Woods & Woods Of New York
city, and mining men of wide expert
ence, contemplate visit to the mining
district prior to investing.
Sanford Rowe Is getting his road to the
Grand canyon In good condition, as he
expects heavy travel of tourists quite

The petition then went to the commit

The usual routine reports of commit
tees were read and adopted, after which
the demands and acquisitions were al
lowed. The reports of the finance and

concentrations adopted.
AN EXPENSIVE CONTRACT
The finance committee presented a
supplemental report, calling attention
to the necessity for some check on the
contractor for the removal of dead ami
mails.
In the matter of the claim of William
Peterson, in amount S133, for services
during the month of March in removing
and destroying dead animals within the
city limits, your committee beg to call
the attention of your honorable body
to the fact that no correct check seems to
be kept on the number of animals dis
posed of by the contractor, and we are
therefore unable to pass intelligently
upon the correctness of the demands
from month to month. We are in
formed by the clerk of the police de-
partment. who attests to the correctness
of the demand for the month of March,
that he is himself without positive in
formation as to the correctness
of the account rendered. he having no
way of knowing whether the service is
actually rendered or not. We believe
that some action should be taken-hy
your honorable body in reforming the
present contract so as to provide for
exact knowledge on the part of some
city official as to the number of animals
of.
For your guidance we submit copy
of Mr.. Peterson's demand for March.

How pat to the subject that Is. "They went on.

no love for the principles that we profess. lhey
could not endure the moral bonds whfn we nn.
thrown around them. They were unwiiiins 70 en-,
gage In the works of brotheriy love ana klndness

And possibly they were mistaken IN the stai

who care nothing for the order II they can make
nothing out of it-and thus far the unaffates Will

MASONIC DEPARTMENT
ADTANCE FORWARD. HIGHER.

Advance is a word of noble meaning the IN
spiration of all great deeds, the sympatne''c
chain that leads link by link, to the zenith Oh
glory-Masonry. Masons do not, ana shouu
not stand STILL but advance and aim lot hiehel
and higher ideals, not in numbers not III "eai'h
but in the true ideal, the true Masonic spirit
the spirit of the divine.
Advance, lsps the infant at its mother hhee
Advance, forward, higher is stamped upon the
human race from the cradle TO the grave i1isnei
and higher climbs the schoolboy as ne Piesse'
forward in his class. Forward higher earnestly
treathes the student in all walks or lie the iio
night oil may burn dim, but the IRE OF Ills Gil
,bnsiasn, burns bright and lights up his weary
road as he travels on toward light ana kno"i-
edge
Forward onward! shouts the man When IN
vested with the dignity Of manhood, Win 'he

higher and higher is his aim as he reaches out
for the almost unattainable. and higher, onward
humanity climbs. until the earthly tabernacle
no longer holds his ambition the clay bursts
ard falls to pieces. moulders in Its mothers
lap. in mother earth, but the immortal part
within him reaches higher and higher, even
beyond the vision Of his human eye.
When q brother first enters the portals Oh
Masonry and becomes an Entered ApPieH'i0o
in the craft, he is told that he must learn the
lessons of the first degree before he is eligible
for advancement and too many Of our brothers
see in this only the learning Of the ritual the
few lines which, schoolboy fashion, they learn
TO repeat, without paying due regard to the
higher aim the beautiful and elevatng senti-
ments contained in the words and work OF the
degree And, again, he passes the outer court
of the temple, through the Middle Chamber.
What elevating sentiments he hears, what deep
moral lessons are here inculcated if he will only
listen learn and duly absorb all the good that is
in this, and finally he reaches the manhood OF
Masonry; is introduced into the Sanctum
Sanctorum" and here learns the higher lessons
of man and of God learns to commune with ms
Maker: is taught the all-important lesson OF the
Immortality of the soul, Of the resurrection ana
of the life to come: is instructed TO honor ana
keep sacred and invOlate any trust conhded TO
his care Thus higher and higher he sees before
him all the beauty and all the glory OF Masonry,
but the Neophite must learn and study and aim
10 reach this ideal which is placed before him
in the alegOry of the craft. True, he is told that
he must learn and know the ritual, but this Is
the shell which contains the kernel. The true
lesson the true aim of Masonry. is to show its
votaries the way to press onward, forward,
higher.
