After a three days session, at Boise
City, the fourth session of the grand
lodge Of the A. o. U. w including
within its jurisdiction the states Of
Idaho, Utah and Wyoming, Friday
night adjourned, to meet on the
18th Of May, 1899, az Evanston,
Wyoming.
/ The session just closed was one
OF much Importance to the lodge.
Beneficial legislation was accom-
plished in relation to death losses
by suicide, which declares policies
void, when a member commits sui
eide within two years after becom-
ing q member, unless suffering
from insanity. After two years
membership, the insurance be-
comes incontestible. Also by the
adoption of an amendment making
it discretionary with members as
to the amount of insurance carried,
one or two thousand dollars, here
tofore, it was two thousand dollars.
The question Of changing from the
death to a graded assessment plan
failed to carry, being referred to a
special committee with instructions
to report thereon at the meeting of
the grand lodge two years hence.
Officers were elected as follows
Grand Master Workman, John
G, Hamm of Evanston.

Mr.. Frank NJ. Ish, who is interest

in town and IN reply to questions by
the INDEPENDENT reporter regarding
the outlook there, said:
1There ID an unusual amount OF &c.
tivity there. There are twenty-five
or thirty men at work OH various
properties, all on development work.
Three OF the properties namely: The
Walker Boys, the Gold Standard
and kahnawa are now producing Il
considerable tonnage OF high grade
ore, and the two former a alre ady
be classed us mines. On the l2j foot
level OF the Walker Boys the drift has
penetrated an ore chute a distance of
about 10 feet, showing M average
width of over two feet OF ore which
will grade up around the hundred
dollar mark. Contrary to general
belief this ore averages from 81 To
SO in gold, and in fact all of the ores

these men have ample capital, their
operations will test the value Of the
claims upon which they are operat-

The faults or breaks which caused
the loss OF the ore bodies in this camp
i'll early days are now thoroughly I'M
derstood and it is only a question OF Il
