Financial Committee on Masonic
Temple Considers Plans.

Members of the committee having the
financial end of the proposed Masonic
temple in. charge met last night with
members of the building committee to
talk over plans for formation of a SUBJ
stanual financial basis upon which to
work before the plans are submitted to
the various bodies
The meeting partook of the nature Of
those held heretofore. The matter was
discussed to some extent, but no formal
action was reported. Members of the
committee are practically settled on one
or the other of the Elm street lots. The
location near the corner of Elm and
chestnut streets is considered an ideal
one. 1t is near the center of the city
but far enough removed from the main
thoroughfare to do away with any dis
agreeable features resulting from noise
of vehicles and electric cars.

George Henderson Is Surprised on His
Fist Appearance at the Lake 7 h eatre.
George Henderson, de-de-camp to
Allie Coburn, the proprietor of the boat
livery at lake Quinsigamond, was called
into requisition last night by Manager
Mcdonald at the Lakeside theater.
George is an expert at stage managing,
ana as soon as he appeared before the
Iootllghts it was noticed that the show
went OF with more vim and enthusiasm
imam at any time during the evening,
With the hundreds of patrons at the
lakeside theater, there is no man more
popular than George. He is one of
those fellows who would give you the
collar button off his shirt to accom-
modate you. When he came upon the
stage he was therefore the recipient Of
an ovation, and DOTTED his Sir Thomas
Upton sailing bonnet in acknowledg-
ment.
With the grace of a cake walker on
the road tc first prize, George escorted
the lady pianist to her seat His bear
ing was patrician, without any of the
hautier Of the newcomer. His bow was
as diflnified, and affected as the salaam
of preferred creditor of the sultan.
From somewhere there came flying
through the air nice, round, new cab
bage. 1t was a head Of the popular
plant that would tempt hereditary
king of Roseomrnon to leave home and
emigratc George knew intutively that
1T was bouquet, intended for him. He
picked it up, and as he bent his intellec-
tual storehouse, there went up cheer
that made the rafters tremble.
Advancing to the front Of the stage,
George said: II thank the donor of this
Gaelic rose profoundly. If there is a
butcher among you, l would suggest
that he send me a stated number of
pounds of corncd beef That will ban
quet to your various healths."
