Wednesday Evening.
The prize drill which was to have tax.
on place last evening failed to material

local lodges for the best drilled degree
team, but no entries were made. The
reason probably was that the expenses Of
the teams, ,itthey came from any distance
would have overrun the amount Of the
prize offered.
Last evening at the hall in the State
Insurance block, Salem Lodge No. 10,
entertained, the members Of the two
grand lodges. An exemplifcation of the
