MASONS SMOKE.
They Also Eat and Enjoy Some Fine Mu-
sic Monday Night.

S4G hAGAACsF NlSnb
The Masons held high carnival
Monday night after the regular meet
ing of the lodge. There were about
100 Masons present, mostly home
members, although Brother Geo. Villas,
of Milwaukee, was down with three
visiting members, and Messrs. Newton
and Deck from the powder mill at
Pleasant Prairie were present. After
the regular session lunch was spread
and a few speeches INDUCED in and
then cigars were passed and string
orchestra was introduced, which, to-
gether with the vocaists present, fur
nished an excellent entertainment.
It is the intention of the present
officers to make the social features of
the lodge more prominent than they
have been and if Monday night is a
sample of what is to come in the flu
ture the prestige of the Masons as en-
tertainers will be assured.
