bert Roberts of Woonsocket. to be a
commissioner Of inland fisheries. Mr..

ditional appointment went to Mr.. Rob-
erts.
Gov. Gregory has finished signing the
commissions of notaries public having
affixed his signature more than 1900
times during the past few days. Ac-
cording to Secretary OF State Bennett
the governor has broken the record for
expediency in this anything but agree
able task.

Will Halt at Pretoria.

1t is generally expected that Gen.
Roberts will halt at Pretoria a while
before attempting to capture or dis
perse the Beers still in arms. Judging
from present indications this task Will
be fully as difficult as the well wish
ers of the burghers have predicted.
There is no more definite intimation
of the whereabouts of Commander-Gen-
eral Botha and the commandos which
opposed the British advance upon the
capital than is contained In previous
Pretoria dispatches. Besides these
forces, Gen. De Vets and others, which
were located on June 2. there are still,
according to n Maseru telegram. 5000
Beers at Witteberg and in the neigh
berhood OF Bethlehem. They're reported
to have been twice routed during the
past week, but the renewed predictions
OF their capture have not been fulfilled.
Furthermore the burghers under Gen.
Steyn threaten considerable trouble.
IL is again suggested that Gen. Rob-
erts may find Il necessary TO return
south personally to direct the forces
in the Orange Free State.

ents in Fall River. friends OF his
Some time after this Flagg said he
thought the Greed heater gieas one;
that he had Travelled In electric cars In
various places and found the only cars
that were warm were those that used
the Greed heater.
Mr.. Creeds idea in getting capital
for the business was to have a plant
where the heaters could be made out
OF scrap iron and with improved ma
chinery The scrap iron would be just
as good for the heaters and while the
Bridgewater Iron Company charged
four cents a pound for iron the scrap
iron could be purchased for 75 cents
hundred pounds. There would be an
equally great saving in machinery and
labor costs.
The first proposition was to capital
ize at 100000. but Mr.. Flagg wanted
the capitalization TO be $150,000. Final
ly II was placed by Mr.. Flagg and Mr..
Logee at $125. 900.
Mr.. Logee once wrote TO Mr.. Greed to
come to Providence. When Greed arriv-
ed Logee said there was a man In Wall
street. New York. who could sell the
whole business to Ex-Governor Flower
OF New York and Anthony Brady. the
street railway magnate. Later Mr.Creed
heard Gov. Flower had died. but the
deal Logee's New York Representatives
said might be yet carried out as Brady
desired the heater. Witness saw some
letters Logee had and heard them read
TO the effect that Brady might give
800. 000 but the New York man would
want 100000 Witness then told Logee

heater for $4,000 or $4,000 they might
have all but $50 000

Providence was in holiday attire to-
day and well II might be, for none ever
saw so many Odd Fellows on Rhode
Island soil as were seen. This is per-.
haps the first postponed affair of the
kind which has ever been a success in
this state. Contrary to usual experience
and contrary to many predictions
made on May 3 and during the few
following days, it's success Is beyond
question; and not only is the post
poned event the equal in every respect
OF what 1t would have been on the date
originally set, but numerically it is
about one-sixth larger and in other re-
spects much superior, while the number
OF persons attracted TO Providence by
this demonstration, unquestionably
far exceeded what would have been
seen on May 8. The spirit of deter
mination and utter lack of discourage
ment manifested by the committee
when IL postponed the event was inn
mediately caught up by the entire orr
der andJby the general public, and the
confidence thus inspired has produced
the results naturally to be expected.
OBJECT OF OBSERVANCE.
This celebration Is of the S1st ami
versary of American Odd Fellowship.
which occurred, April 26, but the cele
bration was set for May as being un-
der existing circumstances more
convenient date, and was necessarily
postponed from May 3 TO June be-
cause OF rain on the earlier date. 1t
is held under the auspices and author
ization OF the Grand Lodge and the
Grand Encampment given at their an
nual sessions held in February and
March In racpapfiVplu the entire
pense being borne by the participat-
ing bodies, except the Rebekah
lodges, which are not assessed for any
portion OF the general expense.
The precise origin or demonstra-
tion OF this kind is generally difficult
to determine There has been a growing
sentiment within the order during the
past few years favorable to something
of the kind and in December last Past
Grand George l.. Robinson of Pilgrim
Lodge, a member OF the present COM
mttee, made long and earnest Ue~
for the public celebration of the S1st
anniversary OF the order, which aroused
much enthusiasm. This was followed
up by him and others In various
lodges; and the matter was brought TO
the attention OF Past Grand Master
Spencer B. Hopkins who presented IL
for the consideration of the Grand
Lodge at its session I'm February last.
his course being followed in March by
Past Grand Patriarch Walter G..
Stackpole in his annual report TO the
Grand Encampment. both bodies TAX

astir. and those who had work to do
went at Il in business-like manner.
so that there would be no hitch of any
sort 10 mar the pleasure OF the day.
All of the regular incoming trains
were filled TO their utmost capacity,
