THO MYSTIC SHRINBRS
Preparations Making to Entertain
the Imperial Council.
A Large Attendance of Mobiles Ex-
pccted-A Host of Blue Lodge Ma
TrIttees to Look After the Com
fort and Pleasure of Their Guests.

The local members OF the Ancient Arabic
Order, Mobiles OF the Mystic Shrine, have
already begun preparations for the recep
| ton of delegates and friends who are ex-
pected TO attend the annual session of the
Imperial Council OF the order, which will
be held in this city May % and q. 1t is
| the intention of the local mobiles to make
| the occasion a memorable one in the his
tory of the order. From present indica-
tions. IL is expected that the attendance
| of mobiles will be the greatest ever held.
| Over 100000 visitors are expected in the
| city on the occasion of the convention, and
| the local committee OF arrangements is
! preparing TO give the delegates and their
friends a royal reception. During the tri-
ennial conclave OF the Knights Templar
held in Washington II is estimated that
fully 100000 visitors came to the city.
Every one of these, 1t is said, was we'll
TODD and the community especially the
business part OF it, was benefited by the
liberal expenditures of the guests. Being
affiliated with the same grand order as the
Templars, the Masons, and the Shriners
are also very desirable visitors, and the
local mobiles will use their best efforts 10
entertain them royalty.
