glorious success, and to add new laurels
to the order and to the race"
The knights Templars under whose
auspices the affair was held spared nei-
Their money nor labor in carrying out
every detail Of the plan. 1t required the
use Of three masonic halls and the lecture
rooms of Bethel A. M. E. church, and
Olivet Baptist church, to accommodate
the seven grand bodies, all of which held
their annual meetings according to the
programme. In order to prevent an evil
the committee opened two places as head
quarters, and supplied the same with all
which the appetites Of visitors craved
including a special brand of cigars. Com
plimentary tickets to the number of three
hundred were distributed among, the Sir
knights, emitting them to free entertain
ment at the several headquarters, and all
the events which took place during the
week This arrangement and hospitality
received unstinted praise from the visit
ing brethren and Sir knights.
Distinguished ladies and gentlemen from
all parts Of the United States were. pres
ent and participated in the festivities and
business of the week. The public parade
surpassed anything ever presented by the
Afro-Americans of Chicago. There were
eight Communicates in line escorting the
grand bodies Of Illinois and Kentucky.
The Grand Chapter Of the Order Of the
Heroines Of Jericho were represented in
the line of carriages by Mrs. r. E. Moore,
the grand matron, and Mrs. - the
most ancient of the two bodies The
citizens all along the line showed their
appreciation by tumultuous applause
Two thousand people attended the picnic,
and two thousand five hundred attended
the entertainment given at the First Regi-
Hent armory. At the banquet, R. E..
Moore, the right eminent grand comman-
der of Illinois, was presented with hand
some jewel by his admiring friends. The
committee after paying all expenses,
amounting to two thousand dollars, will
turn over six hundred dollars to the
grand and subordinate communicates.
THE APPEAL was the only Afro
American paper that published the work
OF the committee, and resolutions were
also the Inter-Ocean and Daily; News.
The result of the magnificent effort on
the part of the Temp1ars Of Illinois is
far greater than we can estimate The
order in general has been strengthened;
all of the subordinate communicates
have received new members, adding
greatly to the numerical strength Of
Templarism. New life has been infused
into the old members, many Of whom
had taken but little interest in the gen,
eral affairs of the order for several years.
Upon the public mind wholesome inn
preston has been made which will re.
dound to the interest of the order and
the race. Well may the members of the
Order of Knighthood feel proud and take
courage, for they have set a high mark
for all the Afro-American organizations
in this country. RI

streets, Monday evening appointments OF
pastors for the ensuing year were an
nounccd and the report of the committee
on the state of the country was adopted
after an animated debate in which sew
eral of the delegates censured the ad-
ministration, but finally were voted
down. $500
The report as adopted congratulates the
country on the result of the war with
Spain and "hopes that the conflict now
going on in the isles of the Orient will
speedily be ended in a manner that will
commend itself to the Christian con-
science Of the world"
Then the bravery of AfrO-Amcrican
troops is commended and the hope ex-
pressed that Cuba soon will become free
and Independent. After speaking of the
country'S prosperity the resolutions at
tack the subject of lynching, calling this
lone dark blot on the fair page" In con-
clusion the wish is expressed ito see such
laws enforced by the national executive
as will guarantee life, liberty, and the
pursuit of happiness to every citizen Of
America"
After the report had been read the Rev.
D. A. Graham, of Ohio, criticised all the
government is doing in the Philippines,
saying it's course was an outrage on
humanity"
The Rev. r. C. Ransom denounced Mr..
The Rev. c. s. Smith then obtained the
floor, and said:

suit of HAPPINESS the 100000 Afro-Amer-.

The Most Brilliant Affair Ever Held


in America.
The knights Templars conclave and Ma
sonic jubilee recently held in Chicago
from every point of view proved to be
the most brilliant Masonic affair ever
held by Afro-American secret societies.
The original plan presented by Right
Eminent Grand Commander r. e. Moore,
which contemplated the meeting of seven
grand bodies of the Masonic order, was
strictly and diligently adhered to- by the
general committee composed of forty
three members, divided into twelve sub
committees, working together in perfect
harmony without the least friction, some
thing unusual, and this fact goes on rec
ord to the credit of every man on the
committee. In the words of the grand
commander, 1t was THE flower of able,
faithful, self-sacridcing society workers

only resorted to drastic measures when
