TO WHOM CREDIT is DUE.

The greatest credit is due to the COM
mittees of the local lodges which had
the celebration in charge. Everything
had been arranged with care and ex-
actness This was easily apparent from
the manner in which the parade, cere-
monies and exercises We're conducted.
There was not a single hitch in any
of the proceedings and it is in order
that the committees be congratulated
upon the able manner in which they
looked to every detail. 1t is seldom
that an occasion such as was yester-
days is not marred by some little I'M
foreseen mishap but SO thoroughly had
the work of preparation been attended
to that not the slightest interruption
occurred in any part of the programme.
The following is a list of the commit
tees having the various departments in
charge:

sion a severe storm was in progress,
and while the messages were being
transmitted the wind roared around the
lighthouse buildings until it was quite
deafening. but there was not the slight
est interruption in the signals, which
were as perfectly recorded as upon a

Boulogne asked the state of the wealth

1t Was a Success.

~ROM first to last, the Odd Eel
r. lows celebration yesterday, in
this city, was an affair which
merits cordial compliment and which.
in all of it's incidents, reflects high credit
on those who We're participants. The
skies might have been fairer than they
were yesterday, yet when put in COM
parison with it's companions of recent
date, yesterday was not so distressing
ly bad; its chilling air did not dampen
the spirits of those who joined in the
parade or took part in the open-ar
ceremonies when the corner stone of
the fraternity temple was laid.
The audience in attendance al the ex-
ercises in the Margaret theater tested
that splendid auditorium's capacity,
and those who were present were adj
mirably entertained. Mr. Billiards. rank
in the Odd Fellowship is fairly that of
one of the patron saints of the order
and eloquent in manner. 1t greatly in
terested those who heard it, Withal, it
was a day that did distinct credit to
the order of Odd Fellows in Montana
1t brought to this city representative
looking and acting body of American
citizens whose appearance and conduct
evoked many merited compliments
These good people will always find a
welcome awaiting them in Anaconda
In turn, the resident members of the
order are entitled to congratulations
upon the successful manner in which
their large share in yesterdays work
was carried out-they represented their
town and their townsmen in the best
style of the art. Taking account of all
the agencies that contributed toward
making yesterdays event a success, the
Standard finds pleasure in making
mention of the Boston and Montana
band and the Alice band. These two
splendid organizations did much toward
making yesterday day of good cheer
and the Standard takes this method of
conveying to these bands its thanks
for the compliment they conveyed to
this office in last evenings enjoyable
serenades.

@OLICE magistrates cannot sock
~ it too hard to wife heaters. One
brute of this class has not only
received condign punishment in ac-
cordance with the law, but has under
gone chastisement not prescribed by
statute but quite in accordance with
human nature. 1t was a New York
judge who sentenced a wife beater to
six months in Jail and to pay a fine of
fifty dollars. The prisoner resented the
sentence in language not relished by
the court, whereupon the court gave
him sound thrashing. Although this
happened in a state that does not
authorize the whipping post for men
who beat their wives. and although
court should not allow its equanimity
to be disturbed even by the impudence
of a convicted prisoner, little sympathy
will be wasted upon the bruised
bruiSer.

I am happy that upon this interesting
occasion it is my privilege to talk to
you about an organization which,
though carrying on its work in many
lands and seeking through it's benevo-
lent ministra tions to bless all nations
owns our land and our age as the place
and time of its birth. The date and
place of its beginning are among the
historic certaintieS Of our country. The
Independent Order Of Odd Fellows is a
modern and an American institution.
1t is the product OF the century and of
the country in which we live. The
principles of friendship love and truth
upon which Odd Fellowship is founded
are not new nor are they peculiar TO
any age or people. They were I'M
planted in the heart of man by mans
Creator. Though often disregarded by
nations and individuals. they have, since
man first held fellowship with man.
been priceless possessions of the hui
man race-cheering it in times of ad-
Nersity, restraining it in days of law
lessness and refining and ennobling it
in all it's progress through the ages.
History is not without evidence that i $
early as 1Ii5 there was in England what
was called a lodge of Odd Fellows.
There is, however. no basis for a be
lief that this society bore either in its
form of organization, its ritual. if 1t
had any, or its plans. or objects, any
to the great fraternity of
odd Fellows with whose work and aims
we are acquainted. In the latter part of
the 18th century there were in England
several different societies, whose teach
ings and methods of work were in some
particulars similar to those that char
acterize the Independent Order of Odd
Fellows. A portion of these societies
finally confederated under the name Of

Such people recognize that were Cuba
a part of the United States their prop

treaty provides that all citizens of
Spain in Cuba who do not register
themselves as citizens of Spain within a
year after the exchange Of ratifications,
become citizens of Cuba. 1t therefore
follows that all Spanlards now living
in Cuba will become citizens and voters
upon the island unless they record their

VIEWS OF OrFIcERs.
Dewey md Hale Think backbone of

| New York, Feb IA dispatch TO the
Herald from Manila says: in an interview
| Admiral Dewey geid: "rhe people on
shore know moro about the situation than
4 do. IT seems to be excellent. however,
! THE natives are coming In again, espe-
cially In san Rogue, whence they had been
driven out by the insurgents, who had
burned their huts.
with ordinary people | should say the
backbone OF the instruction has been
broken, but with this race you can never
tell. a PHILIPPINE master mechanic in the
arsenal at Cavite. representing the middle
class, who formed the strongest part OF

This shows tho attitude OF the people.

man scratched will, ! believe, have great
eject on the natives. The Petrol during the
fight went within easy rife shot OF shore,
II understand the troops In Ilollo VIII
move on the outlying towns OF Moio and
Jaro."
Brigadier General Hale said today: 1.-THE
insurgents attack was the natural out
growth of their nagging and oyerbearing
actions during the last month. They were
looking for trouble and they found 1t. The
remarkable patience of our troops was
about exhausted. The crushing defeat OF
the insurgents has impressed the natives
In Manila and surrounding villages with
the force OF American arms and " has
turned their insolence into deferential re-
spect.
dAguinaldo and his officers represent
TO tho ignorant country people that our
troops are exhausted and that the insur-
gents arc concentrating In force and can
pierce our line and take Manila. There is
little probability of any such effort being
made and none al all OF its success.

fensiye fight under cover against artillery
