Supreme Instructors Report.
In his report the supreme instructor says:
Maita's magnificent ceremonies and their
symbolic meaning have received more gen.
eral attention from the companions in re-
cent years than before, and the effort put
forth to make the work uniformly perfect
has been more successful. Many errors
that had crept in have been eliminated, and
the visiting sir knight, travelling from afar
feels at home wherever he enters our coun-
ell chambers, because the work Is rendered
in uniform manner.
The past year has been marked by
closer attention to the ritualistic observ-
ances than ever before. Larger council
chambers have been secured in many
places, and this convenience together with
larger treasures, has resulted in an elab-
oration of details and beautifying of cere-
monies that has added to the attractive
ness of the cCnvocations.

forded me to give instructions in the work.

Captain-General Blanco cabled from

while Spanish sovereignty existed in
Cuba, he must apply autonomy and,
therefore, he could not turn out the

Letters from Teheran printed in the
Berlin Post represent tho condition of
Persia as absolutely hopeless. The
writer declares that the country is mort.
bund, and quite incapable OF offering
any resistance to external attack. He says
that the internal decomposition is spread
ing more and more rapidly. All idea of
patriotism has ceased to exist, and the
great traditions of the country are for
gotten. There is nothing left that the
Persians, and especially the people of
Teheran, would not sell for piece of
silver. Gold is no longer to be seen. The
higher classes and the officials are cor
rupt, and the lower orders are shame
lessly plundered and thrown into dam
gerous state of religious excitement by
fanatical Mollahs, who teach them that
all other nations are infdels and unclean,
and who fan their contempt for Euro
peaus by all imaginable means. This IS
only when Europeans are not present.
When they are, the Mollahs treat them
with moan servility. No Persian, he
says, high or low, thinks lying, perjury
or fraud disgraceful. On the contarary,
they are regarded as marks Of wisdom.

New York, Sept. 20.--Andrew Cas-
sagne was strangled by three men last
night in the tenement in Williamsburg.
Brooklyn, E. D., which he occupied
with his wife.
According to the story told to the
police by Mrs. Cassagne, she had left
for few minutes the room in which
she and her husband slept. Returning,
she found her husband dead on the
floor beside the bed, while three men
stood over him. She ran to her hus-
bands side, but was. grasped by two
of the men, who choked her nearly to
insensibility, while the third man
searched the room, finding $500 under
the mattress. Meanwhile, Mrs. Cas-
sagne had contrived to reach the door
opening into the hall, and kicked upon
it to call help. Her assailants relaxed
their grasp upon her throat, and she
was then able to scream, which she did
just as the three men fed from the
tenement. There were dark blue marks
upon Mrs. Cassagne's neck, bearing
out the story of the assault upon her,
Cassagne was 81 years old, his wife
being six years younger. a's
The police have arrested two men on
suspicion. They are Michael Nigel
and John Thomas.
According to Mrs. Cassagne's story,
the murder occurred at 8. 30 o'clock
last evening, when she and her hus-
band were preparing to retire for the
night, but the alarm was not given
until o'clock this morning. The
police think the discrepancy in the
woman's story may be due to her ex-
citement over the affair, and are wait
ing until she becomes calmer in order
that another opportunity may be given
her to relate the facts Of the murder

woman sunrare In south Australia.

With much junction the Woman's Jour
nal asserts that the fact that women are
entitled to vote is now viewed with
Observation-Disclosures in South Australia,
and no one would advocate return to
the old system. The oppostion-for OPP.
position of some kind there always is to
every reform = has completely disap-
peared. Last mail, one of our intimate
friends, who was against the reform, wrote
to my wife to say how much she regretted
not having registered ia time to record
her vote in favor of the new Federal Con.
stitution. Former opponents, you will
often find, eventually become your warm

who were once hostile will come forward
to congratulate you, and will even, in
some cases, declare that they have all
along been quietly on your side.
What as to the result of the emancipa-
ton bf women the Journal asks. The
influence Of women has, We have found,
quietly pervaded the realm of politics.
All the great forces of nature are gentle
in their operation. The change that has
taken place is a very great one; it is
nothing less than doubling the power of
the franchise; yet this peaceful revolu-
ton mas DoeH elEeCleu WITHOUT ING Sllgnt-

the tiictation of the men of the family.
l think that the common sense and good
| Judgment of the women have influenced
the opinion of their husbands as often as
the other way. But as rule the hus.
bands and wives vote together.
One result of the wOmen's vote, the
| Journal concludes, has been greater at.
tentioa to social, sanitary, domestic and
industrial legislation. We have observed
that the cause of temperance has received
an accession of strength, for women are
naturally anxious that as few snares as
possible should be set for the feet Of those
who are near and dear to them. Any
thing that affects the general health of the
community now receives great attention.
The influence of women in politics has
thus been in the direction of moral and
physical soundness for the whole people.
A greater stress has also been laid on
questions of inheritance; for our laws in
this respect are not yet quite fair to
women. Industrial questions, such as
factory legislation, have received in
creased attention. Nothing sudden has
been done, but we have been able to
trace the influence for good OF women
! throughout the political atmosphere.
