START OF MOVEMENT.
The ommemOration Plan Beran T.,
COlnrad0-

Colorado.
The movement to commemorate tho 1ootb
anniversary of the death of General WASH
lngton originated, as has been stated with
the Grand Masonic Lodge of the state ~
Colorado. The idea was not of recent birth
In September, 1893, Most Worshipful VIM
ID. Wright, grand master of Colorado nro-
posed the great observance. Actuated nv
hrm belief in the peculiar fitness of the
thing Most Worshipful W. R Woodberv
chairman of the committee to whom the
recommendation of the grand master had
been referred, presented the matter in such
attractive form to sister lodges that their
nearly cooperation was soon secured II
was then thought eminently fitting4by the
promoters of the movement that Virginia,
the home of Washington, should take nre
cedence IN honoring the memory of her
illustrious son. The old dominion was also
the Masonic jurisdiction under which Wash
ington worked and therefore the Grand
Lodge of Virginia was requested to as
sumo the duties. The Virginia lodge read
lily responded and extended an invitation
to the Grand Lodge of the District of Co
lumbia TO act Jointly with it. This was
accepted, and each lodge appointed com
mtttees to act Jointly in arranging details
for the procession and ceremonies This
JOINT committee was known as the Wash
inston centennial committee, and upon the
members thereof rested most of the burden
OF preparation. The members appointed
from Virginia were as follows: Right Wor-

Cdue ht a Cougar.

Scott Stevens, who lives at the Buck
eve ranch, twenty-five miles up the
Natchez, trapped cougar Last Thursday
morning about daylight. The animal
was splendid specimen of the wild ,at
species, and weighed 200 pounds and
measured seven feet. Mr.. Stevens val
ued the carcass, which he brought to
town Friday, at $40. He was offered
$3.50 for the main claw of the catamount
This is the main fore talon with which
the animal pierces the body of its strug-
ling victim, while with its teeth and hind
claws it tears the quivering flesh to
shreds for mastication
The mountain lion, az it is sometimes
called, was caught in trap and then
dispatched with rife ball. Two of Mr.
Stevens sheep were attacked and killed
the night before. The marauder, with a
peculiar instinct, first killed an old bell
weather to stop the noise of the bell, and
then destroyed non-alarming sheep
The tawny-colored animal was the center
OF attraction to large crowds during the
day on First street near the avenue.

business and the capital invested. II
is provided that companies organized
under this law shall be relieved from
