]. O. O. F. GRAND LODGE.
Reports of the Officers Are Submitted
The Money on Hand.

The Grand Lodge Of Odd Fellows began q
two days session yesterday. with about
seven hundred of the leading Odd Fellows of
the State present. During the morning the
reports of the officers were read. Grand
Master o.. N. Craner, of Muncie, made a
short address, stating that the order was
never in a more prosperous condition. He
recommended that the plan to hold county
meetings be made PERMANENT. w. H. Leedy,
the grand scribe. reported that there are
now GA lodges in the State, with a total
membership of $3.50, the net gain for the
year being 1855. Total receipts for the year
were SOS. 275.2 {. There were more limitations
during the year than in any previous year.
Grand Master Craner appointed eight
standing committees. The question of a new
building came up during the day. The trus-
tees reported that they had received no
proposition for the purchase of the present
site and that they would not search for an
other location until they received an offer.
The lodge is said TO be divided on the ques-
ton of building on the present site or sell
ing the property and erecting a new build
ing away from the central part of the city.
The matter was referred to the committee
on the state OF the lodge and may come up
again to-day.
The report of Grand Treasurer James A.
Nildman showed that the lodge had on
hand Oct. 81 a balance of IS, 231. 81. The

IN full for liability to him. There is still a
suit pending for the architects fees. The
lodge will be in session again to-day.

SAMANTHA j. ROBERTS'S ESTATE.
The Administrator Holds the Magnifi-
cent Sum of S36.25.

Thomas III. Johnson, administrator of the
estate of Samantha j. Roberts, filed a petit
ton with the probate commissioner yester-
day asking for instructions. The admins
traitor shows that he has $685. belonging to
the estate. He has found a small amount
of personal property in a storage house in
Chicago which he thinks was placed there
in the name of Lilly Bell" He says there
is $50 storage due on the property, which
consists chiefly OF old clothing, dishes, etc.
The administrator suggests that the prop
erty is not worth redeeming and asks TO be
instructed in the matter.
Samantha J. Roberts lived in this city
many years ago and is said to have been
a very handsome woman. 1t Is thought she
probably went to Chicago after leaving
here. The administrator in his petition says
he believes the woman was married at the
time of her death and he thinks her hus-
bands name was Wiley. 1t is said that
Wiley was a great traveller and that letters
have been found addressed to his wife
which were written in many foreign coun-
tries. Probate COMMISSIONS Walker has
the matter under Amusement.

talks he had had with Mr.. Statesman that
the latter had but a single ambition and
that was to represent his district in Con-

make the effort to secure the nomination.
He said the only question now being con-
sidered by Mr.. Statesman was whether IL
would be advisable to make the race next
year or two years later. but his friends are
advising him to com out at once.
