One of the largest assemblages of
Knights that has met for some time
was present at the convention of Zion
lodge No. u, knights of Pythias, last
Friday evening to witness the con-

were we'll conducted and reflect credit
on the lodge. 1t was intended to have
Calanthe lodge No. confer the
same rank on Esquire Smith, but
owing to pressing business he was
unable to be present, SO it was unani-
mously agreed that Zion lodge attend
the convention of Calanthe lodge this
evening in a body and have the latter
confer the knights rank on Esquire
Smith. 1t is the desire to have a good
number of the knights attend. The
folio wing representatives and attend
ants were elected to attend the next
session of the Grand lodge, to be held
at Park City next month: w. f. Ev-
ans, w. w. Wiscomb and H. W. Comfy
c. H. Mccoy, w. w. Hall and j. S.
Witcher. After the closing of the lodge

Eagle Gate lodge No. 10, A. o. L. W.,
had a grave question under consider
alton at it's meeting on Wednesday
evening. Under the good of the or
Ger" the representative to the grand
lodge, S. w r. Brown, arose for in
formation in regard to the sentiment
of the lodge as to the threatened
graded assessment and requested
Brother S. w. Darke to explain his
position with reference thereto. Rep
resentative Darl1e said that he was
certainly in favor of the local assess
ment as now in operation in this jul
risdiction. and therefore his action in
the grand lodge would be in that di-
reetion. Brother Silas T. Smith ex-
pressed himself eloquently and quoted
Shakespeare. He was also against the
new plan.
Brother Alexander Brown, NJ. w. of
Temple lodge No. 10, emphatically
stated to the brothers his undertaking
opposition to the graded assessment,
and that he would fight it TO the bitter
end, or words to that effect.
Brother James T. Kelly also placed
himself on record as being against the
new plan. In fact, Eagle Gate lodge
stands solid for the present system of
assessment and would like to see it
perpe- lated.
Next Wednesday evening the Degree
of Honor will give an entertainment in
Eagle Gate lodge room in honor of the
grand lodge officers of the d. of H.,
and a splendid time is anticipated. No.
10 kindly rendered the use of their hall
for that purpose. The ladies of the D.
of II. have always willingly assisted
all in their power whenever No. 10 has
had an entertainment, and Eagle Gate
feels like reciprocating every time an
opportunity offers.
Temple lodge, a. o. L. W., met on
Monday evening in regular session.
The application of w. S. Parsons for
membership was presented and re-
ferred to the proper committee. Tenn
pie lodge is forging ahead and increas-
ing its membership at a gratifying
rate.
The protection this order offers to the
families of its members appeals to all,
no better proof of which is needed than
the fact of its regularly increasing
Matters of Importance
will be up for discussion at the next
meeting and a full attendance is ex-
pected.
Some concerted and tireless work
will be done at the grand lodge meet
ing this month and Temples repre-
sentatives are preparing for the fray.
No better representatives could have
been selected than George Teasdale
John Harrington and ]. NJ. Bowman.
Graded assessments will fare badly at
their hands.
This order has been singularly free
from high salaries and lavish expend-
itures, and the representatives will
continue to ''hew to the line" and en-
deavor to make it even more so than
in the past. Watch the chips fall.
