II, on Friday evening last eight applications
were received and several that had passed
the preliminary examination were balloted
for. Deputy Grand Master Work
man Van Dyke has been with
this lodge during the last week and
the result of his labor is shown by fifteen
new applications, which will swell the mem
bership TO 512. A number of visitors from
sister jurisdictions were present and re-
ported the work of spreading the protection
OF the order as being vigorously pushed all
along the line. The supreme lodge at it's
recent meeting levied an assessment of 80
cents per capita to meet death losses oc-
curing among those who have enlisted in
the service. 1t may not be generally Known,
but among the Nebraska troops now at the
front this order Is well represented, espe-
cially In the line of leading officers, Colonels
Bits and Bryan and Chaplain Tate being

ton, but to that flag which guarantees "life

explanation of this paradoxis simple: Whereas civil
lied man is expected to support his wife, the Pondo
leaves to his folks the privilege OF support
ing him. This shows that savage is not neccessari-
ly fool. Mr.. James O'Haire, missionary Of the
Catholic Church in Umtata explains the working OF
the system in letter. "Polygamy" says he, = is

wives man has settles the question to his previ

and so do the daughters, but the head of the family

"dignity Of labor is noble thing that
not but admire the complete se-abnegation of the
polygamous Pondos IN leaving it all to the females.
And yet the absence of work does not seem to prey
upon their spirits "They as happy the day
is long; they all smoke tobacco and drink beer, and
eat meales and beef or the flesh of wild animals
