The universal craze on "The Coming
Woman" has been acted upon by Chas.
H. Yale, and in the first act of The
Twelve Temptations" he gives in a
ballet what we may expect to see un-
less radical changes soon make their
appearance. The entire corps de ballet
is utilized in this suggestion. In it we
have platoons of four hunting girls;
four bicycle girls; four riding girls;
four fishing girls, and four Coming
Women" the latter of whom sing OF
their triumphs, which is followed by
five young men" who relate in verse
the woes of their lost supremacy.

There were stormy times in the lodge
room this morning. Several appropr:a-
tions that usually went through with
a whirl at former meetings were either
referred or voted down, and there was
strong determination on the part of
those opposed to the present officers
to track close to Pythian laws in every
thing. This morning a resolution was
introduced that cut the expenses Of
the meeting of the Supreme Lodge half
in two, and will make this session the
cheapest ever held with so many rep
resentatives.
A resolution was passed requiring re-
ports from the officers as to supplies
furnished, and declaring that in the
future such purchases must be made by
competitive bids
An inquiry was also made as to the
present condition of the claim held by
the Supreme Lodge against the City

A resolution to abolish the supreme
tribunal on the score ofyits cost was
defeated
An attempt will be made to reduce
the number of members of the Supreme
Assembly, Uniform Rank, and warm
fight is expected over it.
The sensation this afternoon was the
report of the Finance Committee. The
committee went at the salaries with
an ak and cut everything in sight. The
committee recommended that the per
diem of the supreme representatives be
reduced from So per day and 5 cents
mile each way to So a day and 3 cents
a mile actually travelled. The report
as presented, is as follows: Salary of
Supreme Chancellor. two years, $4,000;
salary Of clerical force, two years,
81 500; office rent at actual cost and not
to exceed, two years, $500; postage,
telephone, telegraph and stationery,

clerical assistance of all kinds, two
years, 50 600; Office rent, heating, light
ing, janitor, telephone, postage, pack
ing boxes wrapping paper, and other
incidentals, at actual cost not to ex-
ceed $1,000; travelling expenses, S, K.
r. and s., at actual rate cost and not to
exceed, two years. $500; salary of S. NJ.
of Ex, two years, $500; travelling ex
penses at actual cost and not to ex-
ceed S400; expenses of the supreme
tribunal. two years, $1,000; official

the Finance Committee, 81 200; interest
on mortgages, 81 $50: Supreme Chan
cellor's jewel, $50. Total, S33, 500.
This report has precipitated a fight
that has almost become personal be-
tween some of the members. The Su-
preme Temple Rathbone discussed the
question of an insurance feature and
votes sufficient to adopt the resolu-
ton creating it have been received.
