ITS REPRESENTATIVES ARRIVE
REVIEW THE CONDITION OF THIS
STRONG ORDER IN DELAWARE
AND SEND TELEGRAM TO NEW
JERSEY LODGE.

By noon to-day fully 175 representa-
tives, including the past grand masters,
had arrived at the lodge rooms. They
came from every lodge in Delaware.
After hearing the reports Of grand
officers, the convention called for the
special committee on insurance and
committee on aged Odd Fellows. These
made partial reports and asked for an
extension of time until this afternoon.
The election Of officers was made the
special order for o'clock this after
noon
Shortly before noon to-day the fol-
lowing was offered and acted upon at
once:
Resolved, That the Grand Lodge of
Delaware send greetings to the Grand
Lodge of New Jersey, wishing prosper
ity and success.
The sixty-fourth annual communica-
ticn OF the Independent Order of Odd
Fellows has begun in Odd Fellows Hall,
this city, with a large attendance. To-
day, Grand Master George NJ. Fisher
submitted his repor., which showed
that the organization is net making
any headway in Delaware.
In Grand Master Fishers report
he says: "While lit has not
been the most successful year
in the history of the order in this juris-
dlction, yet we cannot but feel thank-
ful to the Grand Master CT the Uni
verse for the fact that we, as a frazier
nal organization, still occupy very high
position throughout this land. 1t is eX-
ped.ent, therefore, that we give thanks
/ to Him who has conducted us safely
thus far, and invoke His ala and direc-
tion in the work which may ccme be
fore us to-day and for the future of cur
order.
$50 far as we nave been informed
we find the order in this jurisdiction is
slowly losing ground, and about the
| only reason we can see fer this retro
gressive movement is a general lack OF
interest on the part of a great many OF
the brothers who have in che past been
the bone and sinew of the order.
