GOOD TEMPLARS
a BUSY Day in the Grand Locge
Yesterday.

/ The report of the committee on the
enforcement of prohibitory laws was
submitted at the morning session OF
| the |. o. G. T. grand lodge, and re-
| ceived due consideration The report
of the committee on juvenile work
contained several recommendations OF
! importance to this branch of the
work. The grand superintendent. was
authorized to furnish temples with
j literature gratis. A new burden was
laid upon lodge deputies, requiring
them to report any change in superin-
tendents of Juvenile temples in their
respective lodges, and a failure to do
so will forfeit their commissions. The
law was changed providing for the
election of superintendent for one
year instead of quarterly.
The election of officers was taken up
at D. N. and passed off pleasantly
and quietly. Those chosen to guide
the destinies of the grand lodge dur
/ ing the ensuing year are: Past grand
chief tempIar, Hon. F. NJ. Dean of
Florence; grand chief templar, Hon.
a. p. Shewman of Mesa; grand vice
templar, Mrs Jennie H. Bowen of Bis
bee; grand counselor, Rev. W. F.
Oglesby of Solomonville; grand super
intendent juvenile temples, S. S. Green
of Floral; grand secretary, A. P. Wal
bridge of Phoenix; grand treasurer,
Mrs. Eta B. Johnson CT Tempe; grand
electoral superintendent, w. A. Place
of Stafford.
The officers appointed by the execu-
tive officers-elect are: Grand chap
lain. Miss Minnie Utter of Prescott;
grand messenger, Albert w. Austin OF
Tucson; grand marshal, W. L. Norris
of Phoenix; deputy grand marshal,
Miss Minnie Watts of Congress; grand
guard, Miss Blanche Newell of Mesa;
grand sentinel, Wilson Orr of Stafford;
assistant grand secretary, John R.
Blewett of Bisbee.
These officers were installed by
Senior Past Grand Chief Templar J. A
Marshall, assisted by w. G. Ogle OF
Phoenix and Miss Burr of Bisbee, as
installing marshals.
Tucson was selected as the place of
the next session and the first Wednas-
day in September, 1900, the time.
During the evening recess a special
degree session of the international su-
p1eme lodge was held by Deputy
Worthy Templar Shewman. Eleven
members presented themselves, bear
ing credentials emitting them to the
highest degree of Good Templary. The
grand lodge I2convened after the L. 5.
L. session and after the transaction OF
some routine business, opened in the
good of the order and listened to re-
ports from the delegates from each of
the lodges represented. The difficult
ties encountered by each in their
work were presented and discussed,
and plans talked over for the future
At the close of the session last night
ice cream was served in the banquet
room.
The business of TIE session will be
concluded at the sitting this morning
at $50 o'clock.

FAILED IN PHOENIX
But Working Very Successfully in
California.

If a couple of Stockton, Cal, lawyers
had been subscribers to The RepublI-
can they would not now be bewailing
the loss of 5000. A single copy Of The
Republican a little more than a
month ago would have been
worth that much to them. That
was the issue describing min
utely a new swindle tried on As
sistant United States Attorney
Thomas D. Bennett, and just fell
short of success. So far as it is known.
that was the first trial of one of the
mcst ingenious sWindles ever designed.
The inventor is now under another
name engaged in introducing his de-
vice among the attorneys of California
"A Stockton correspondent thus de-
scribes its successful operation there:
something new in the way of a
swindle was successfully worked in
Stockton last week, and Frank d.
Nicol and NJ H. Orr, the members OF
the well known law firm, became the
victims to the tune of $500. The
scheme was carefully planned by some
one well posted in the business ways
practiced by attorneys in this state,
and also well posted in the laws of the
state as they relate to instruments and
conVeyanceS of land.
Last Thursday afternoon package
was received addressed to Nicol and
Orr. 1t contained deed tic, forty acres
of land in Fresno county, in which
Horace J. Winders was named as
grantor and Martha Ada Woods as
grantee. A letter of instructions, APP
parent1y signed by w. D. Crjtchton, an
attorney of Fresno, and a check for
1850, apparently duly certified on the
First National bank of the raisin cell
ter, ware contained in the package.
The letter described Mr.. Winders and
said that he would call on the Stock
ton attorneys within a day or two and
directed them to offer $500 for the
land. If he,would not accept. the law
yerS were to offer the full amount OF
the check.
''On Friday morning the man de-
Scribed put in an appearance with a
letter Of Introduction, also apparently
signed by w. d. Critcht0n, in which
the bearer was told that the deed had
BEEN sent to Nicol and Orr, and that
they wlould take an offer for the land
Winders described the land and
talked intelligently of the transaction
The lawyers offered him 5000 and he
accepted. The deed was signed and
the check being made out to NicOl and
Orr, was by them Endorsed and cashed
The 5000 was paid over to Mr.. Winders
and the deed, with draft for the $50,
was incIosed in a registered letter to
the Fresno attorney. The bank, how
ever, received word from Fresno that
the check was a forgery in time to
withdraw the registered package from
the mail. When the check was return
ed to Stockton it was made good by
the indorsing lawyers, who are out 10
the extent of the amount paid VIM
ders,. He, meanwhile, has made him
self scarce in this section of the coun-
try, and though effort has been made
TO locate him in Fresno no trace of
him has been found
1.-THE letter OF instructions and the
letter Of introduction were both writ
ten on stationery of the Fresno at
tOrney, and with sufficient ingenuity IN
the imitation of his writing and style
to cause no suspicion to find place in

An Italian Fleet May Come,

An Italian fleet may visit American wa
tiers some time next month. A movement
to that end has been on foot of late among
prominent Italians of New York, the pur-
pose being to have the fleet here on Sep
TENDER Is, when Italy celebrates a national
holiday. Since the movement began word
has come that the Italian fleet at Buenos
Ayres was sailing north. This was said
to be due to the agitation In San Domingo,
and the possibility of political upheaYal
there. 1t is the understanding here, how
ever, that the movement of the fleet has
no such political significance, but is prob
ably the result of requests made to the
Italian authorities to have the fleet make
a friendly visit to American ports.
