HIS LODGE In GRIEF
HONORS MEMORY OF THE LATH
REV. BISHOP MAHLON N.
GILBERT
MADE A MASON IN MONTANA

For the Past sixteen Years Has Been
Prominent In Ancient Landmark
Lodge of ST. Pnul-ApprOpriate
Resolutions Passed by the Menu
bers at Their Meeting Last Even
tnS-Was Dearly Beloved.
The late Bishop Gilbert was a member
Of Ancient Landmark Lodge No. 5, A. f.
and A. NJ. Of this city, having joined
the lodge Feb. %, 1884. He was made
Mason in Helena Lodge No. 3, at Mon
tana, but for the past sixteen years has
been prominent in Ancient Landmark
lodge, although he never held any office.
AT meeting of the lodge last evening
the following resolutions were adopted:
Whereas. On the second day OF this
month the members of this, his own
lodge, the Masonic fraternity of this ju-
riSdiction and state. as well as the entire
civil and religious community of the
Northwest. were grievously shocked to
hear Of the sudden and unexpected death
Of that illustrious prelate. citizen and
Mason, the Rev. Bishop Mahlon N Gill
bert. of this city; and; while our heads
are bowed In grief and our hearts are
burdened with sorrow for the loss of
so beloved a member, we are strong in
the conviction that, though absent from
our lodge here on earth, our brother is
now with those who have gone before, in
full enjoyment OF that celestial lodge
above. over which our Grand Master pre-
sides: and that. in removing from our
midst valuable a brother, it is but
the execution OF the Divine law made
perfect by the Grand Architect of the
Universe. and in this we are forcbly re-
minded that We, too, are travelling on that
level OF time to that undiscovered
country from whose bourne no traveller
returns; and when the summons comes
to us. as 1t must come to all, and that
grim tyler. Death ushers us into that
supreme lodge above. may it be said by
the divine Master who presides that our
specimen of work presented is good work
and true work. emitting US to our full
wages; and. therefore, be 1t
Resolved. That in the death Of Brother
Mahlon N. Gilbert this lodge loses a
most valuable and beloved member and
the Masonic fraternity a member whose
life was a living eXemplifcation of the
principles of our order; and, be it further
Resolved, That, as a fit token of re-
membrance of his illustrious character
and his unselfish devotion to the frater-
nifty of his lodge and his fellow beings,
the proper furniture of the lodge be
draped in mourning for a period of thirty
days

Of John Philip Sousa, and some bear an

might have been envied by any leader
on earth, but later he was appointed by
the American commissioner general ia
the Paris exposition to open the great
worlds exposition on April IA, a dis
tinction of even greater significance.
Sousa Is filling a short American tour

season, and will be in this city on sun

Having Resisted AN Officer.
Sergeant Aamold and officer Cline had
a rough and tumble fight with Thomas
McDonough, who was arrested, with his
brother, Cole McDonough. last evening.
for creating disturbance at the Saliva
ton army barracks, Seventh street, near
Rosabel. Cole McDonough went along
quietly, but Thomas is said to have saw
agely resisted. In the struggle his cloth
ing was half torn from his body. BY
the time the patrol wagon arrived Officer
Cline and Sergeant Aamold were sitting
upon McDonough, holding him down. An
other scuffle occurred when McDonough
was put into the wagon, and at the sta
ton he was still inclined to be obstreper-
GUS. The brothers are charged with
drunkenness and disorderly conduct
while the additional charge of resisting

VANISH GETTING SETTLED.
Census Supervisor Is Preparing for
the Count.

the Count.
The new quarters of Census Supervisor
Vanish. Alb. 414 and Ais Pioneer Press
building, are rather scantily furnished
just at present So far there is but one
desk in the three rooms. Later on there
will be a large number of tables and
chairs to accommodate the census ntera-
ture and workers on the same. or the
former there will be a great abundance.
The government does not supply furnl-
ture in the way of desks, chairs,
etc, for the different supervisors.
These must be furnished by the
supervisors themselves. There are
300 supervisors districts to look
after, and the cost for them all would
necessitate a large cash outlay for a
very short time. The government will,
however, provide for paying the carpen-
ters who make the tables.
Supervisor Vanish is now sending out
test schedules to applicants for positions
as enumerators. In a certain sense
these schedules are examination papers.
They comprise forms of questions, with
blanks for answers, adapted to almost
every species of work that may be en-
countered by the enumerator. On these
blanks the eKaminee is expected to show
what he can do. A few returns of these
schedules have already been received.

QUARTER FOR THE FAIR
MOVEMENT IN IT'S BEHALF IS
GAINING GROUND.

Secretary Talmadge, of the Chamber
of Commerce, has interested himself in
the proposition to secure a 25-cent general
admission to the state fair this year.
A large number of business men have
been approached on the subject, and the
uniform opinion has been expressed that
some action towards this end is desira-
BILE.
1t Is probable that the matter will be
taken up by one of the. commercial bodies
and an effort made to establish a lower
admission on the general plan adopted
with great success In Toronto.

Make Selections of Swamp Lands
Due to the Duluth s. Iron Range
Road Under the Grant Which Has
Been In Dispute ia the Courts Tn
til Recently.
Further litigation in the Duluth &
Iron Range swamp land grant will be
dropped by the state, and State Auditor
Dunn will, within sixty days, select sew
eral hundred thousand acres Of swamp
iandsstill due the railroad company un-
der the provisions of the grant of March
8, 1875.
This decision was reached yesterday
by the governor and state auditor, who
decided this course as altogether the
most practicable, and as matter about
the only thing to do, as the federal court
recently sustained the claim Of the rail-
road company. and 1t was hardly believed
that the United States supreme court
would reverse the decision
In addition to the Duluth & Iron Range
grant, the state will as speedily as pos
sible close up its accounts with other
railroad companies for swamp lands.
The Iron Range grant is the only one of
Importance. and it involves a very large
amount of valuable pine and mineral
land.
The state, however holds the right to
make the selections. Mr.. Dunn has for
some time been collecting accurate min
utes of all the state swamp land in Cook.
Lake and st. Louis counties. In making
the allotment of between 200, 900 and S90,
900 acres the state will see that the rail-
road company gets just what the grant
calls for swamp land" If, on the
other hand, the company was allowed
to select the land. perhaps so fine a dis
tinction would not be made. However,
the Iron Range road will receive some
very valuable land much of it that may
develop great value.
Swamp lands granted the state under
the act of congress, March Il, 1860, were
given on condition that they were to be
drained, reclaimed and improved. The
different state legislatures, between 1861
and 1881, appear to have considered that
the best method of securing the reclama-
ton and drainage of these lands was to
encourage the construction of railroads
by making grants of these swamp lands
to the promoters of railroad companies
to aid in their building. During twenty
years during the dates named the legiS-
latures made twelve grants, involving
3,0621A acres
