A MISUNDERSTANDING.

There are several lodges in this
city run exclusively by ladies-a
kind of Adamless eden as it were, or
is-and they rent their own lodge
roem and hold meetings when they
get good and ready, without any
regard to days or dates.
On Thursday afternoon it seems
that the Queen Bee or head officer
of two of these lodges thought
they had a meeting coming to
them, and each Queen Bee, unbe-
knowing to the other, hitched up
their nags to their gigs, went out
over the city to summon the mem
bers to assemble at the hall (the
same hall, for both lodges have
rent privileges there but hereto
fore have met on different dates,
and things run smoothly between
them. On this occasion, however.
when the Immaculate Whites" ar
rived at the hail.. and found the
"Seven Sisters" 1--WE substitute
lodge names) we're there, they grew
wroth and demanded that they va
cate Immediately, or they would
issue an ultimatum and back it up
With arms. This riled all the fight
ing blood in the "Seven Sisters
and they barricaded the door with
props, and armed themselves with
gavels, spears, maces and other
paraphernaha found in lodge rooms
and the wicket was thrown open il
the door, and the contending fac
tions wared it out with each Other
in a wordy war, through the ap.
pertrre.
The "Seven Sisters" soon had the
satisfaction of seeing the storming
party withdraw to the ante room
and after holding consultation o.
war among themselves, thought il
wise to withdraw, and they did 81
