MYSTIC SHRINERS
COMING NEXT YEAR
Washington Designated for the
COncIave of 1900.
Business Men Suggest Plans to En-
tertain the Guests.
An Affair That Promises to Bring
One Hundred Thousand Visitors
to the National Capital.

Beginning with June 5, 1900, the Imperial
Council of the Mystic Shrine, will hold its
conclave in Washington. The Imperial
Council, which concluded its sessions in
Buaffalo yesterday. designated the Capital
City as its next meeing place.
Among the Shriners in the city who were
| unable to go to Buffalo there is much re-
joicing. The Almas Temple. the local or
ganization of the order. has been endeav-
oring for the last six months to induce the
delegates named TO the convention from
other cities TO cast their votes in fa.or OF
Washington. From the meagre reports re-
ceived in the city, the Capital was chosen
after little or no opposition. Usually there
is much rivalry among the large cities to
secure the conclave, but Washington ap-
parently won without trouble.
The Order of the Mystic Shrine is prob
ably the wealthiest fraternity in the world
1t does not come under the jurisdiction OF
Masonry. but. in order to become a mem-
ber, candidate must be either a thirty
second degree Mason or Knight Templar.
Its members are noted for leaving a good
round sum of money in the town where a
conclave is held. They have a large fol-
lowing and every conclave brings into a
city at least a hundred thousand people
The order in the United States numbers
about sc, 900 members. The-erowd at Buff
falo this year has been very large SO large,
in fact, that the $50 representatives of the
Almas Temple who have been in attendance
have been obliged to pay S. and Sc a day
for room in which four and five people
are compelled to sleep.

board of directors will be held tonight and
it is believed that the matter will be in
discussed. William S. Knox, a
prominent Shriner and the President of the
Business Mems Association. stated today
that the association will undoubtedly help
devise plans for entertaining the visitors
If they do not" said he, "the unattached
business men will no doubt take the matter
in hand. The coming of the Shriners to
will be big thing for the
city, not only from a business point OF
view. but from a social one as we'll. The
shriners are a fine body of men. They pre-
