SON COUNTY,

Orwell Lodge, No. 40, has 113 members,
about ninety of these being on the active
list. Meetings are held every Wednes-
day evening, with good attendance and
a literary and musical program, the pre-
sent chief templar making q success of
closing at ten. \ memorial committee
has been lately appointed, whose bust
ness it shall be to purchase funeral
flowers, and prepare resolutions on the
death of members, as their judgement
shall dictate
The charter is now draped for two of
the members, lately deceased; one, a
volunteer in Co. A. Vermont regiment,
in the bloom of his youth, the other one
of the oldest and most valued brothers,
always ready to lend a hand in every
thing that was "for the good of the
Order" He was also remarkable for
having the courage of his convictions,
no matter what the outcome might be.
A few more such men with moral back
bone, to stand behind the prosecuting
officers as a wall of defense, are greatly
needed in every community for the
proper enforcement Of our prOhibltory
law.
The lodge was pleasantly surprised,
on the evening of Sept. IS, by a visit
from our district deputy, Brother
Kelley, and wife of Salisbury. The
former kindly took the chief templar's
chair, ond gave several valuable sugges-
tions on many points, one being that the
temperance column in this paper needed
the help of its friends.
The lodge therefore resolved to ap
point a reporter, who stands pledged to
furnish materials for such columns.

test against the action of Chairman Burke.
They say he has a report prepared outside

Wireback. who maintained that he had
the privilege of REF enting, and positively
refused. sto.-xacate..- Proceedings were be-

ed himself by sending his family away
and mailing the doors and windows and
ctherW.se barricading the entrance Two
censtables attempted to eject him, but
Wlrepack took refuge in the garnet.
He asked for a conference, and requested
that the constables send for Mr.. Lands.
His request was complied with.
Mr. Lands came over to the house. and.
accompanied by the two constables, started
upstairs to see Wireback. He had not as
cerfded more than two or three steps of the
garnet stairs when terrific report was
heard. and Lands fell back into Constable
ciraef's arms. the whole top of his head
having been blown off. Graefs face and
the upper part of mis- body were covered
with the brains of the dead man. The TOP
or Lands head from a line Immediately

Nothing was seen of Wireback. He had
removed the door of the garnet and nailed
boards over the opening, and is intrenclled
behind this barricade. The house is sur
rounded by officers and wildly excited
crowd but no effort has yet been made to
capture the murderer. This, it is feared

NEW YORK, April THE report that
the Hamburg American line had intlmated
it's willingness to sell the Normannia, the
Columbia and the Fuerst Bismarck to the
governmeTt"w was authoritatively confirmed
here today. 1t was admitted that the

their arrival in this port. and to make a
careful report to the department The
ECerst Bismarck Is due here on April %,
the NormaEnia on May 13 and The Column
bia on May g. 1t is said to be probable
that the last to arrive will not be con-
sidered.
1t is also said today that the vessels of
the Atlantic Transport Company had been
offered to the government, and would prob
ably be considered. No specific reason for
the governments purchase of any of the
vessels of the company Of the Hamburg
American Line ra- her than the heavily
subsidized boats of the American was sug-
gested. 1t Is generally understood how
ever, that the government is not willing
to pay the price asked for the st. Louis
and the ST. Paul, and that the Fuerst Bis
marck, the Normannia or the Columbia
could be bought for much less than either
of the American liners.
