Becomes One of the Literary Advis-
ers to the House.
William Dean Howells, the foremost
figure in American letters today, is to
he one. of the literary advisers to the
xeorganized house of Harper & Brothers.
Axe depar 1ment OF the Easy Cham
in Harpe;'s Magazine, made, famous by
George William Curtis, and abandoned
since his death, is to be revived by Mr..
Howells and he will also contribute reg
ular critical articles on contemporary
literary affairs to the North American
Review.
BY special arrangement Messrs. Harp
er & Brothers have secured from Mr..
Howells both periodical and book rights
to all his future works.
The department of the Easy Chair in
Harper's Magazine was established in
1851. Donald G. MITCHELL Ok MARVEL
was the first incumbent
Mr. Curtis began his work in connec-
tion with the Easy Chair in 1853 and
occupied the position until shortly be-
fore his death.
Mr.. Howells' association with the Mag
azine has been of long standing. For
several years he conducted the Editors
Study a department of literary COM
ment and criticism which happily sup
plemented the Easy Chair Later this
Dudley Warner.
Many of Mr. Howells' best known nov
els have appeared serially in Harper's
Magazine, the most notable being Their
Silver Wedding Journey" which ran
throughout 1899.
Mr.. Howells' first journalist work was
done for the Cincinnati Gazette and the
Columbus State Journal From 1861 to
1865 he was United States consul general
at Venice and not until his return from
this mission did he begin his career as
a novelist.
Since that time he has written a great
number of successful novels as wen as
several collections of critical essays.
No American writer has been more pro-
ductive and none has succeeded in main
tanning so generally high a standard in
his work. Other recent writer's have, per-
haps, attained a greater popularity for
the moment, but it is doubtful If any
has achieved so lasting a position in
American letters.
According to the publishers, Mr.
Howells's work in connection with the
North American Review will consist in
contributing to every issue an article
commenting upon the lite, airy movements
and tendencies of the month. He will
also review OCCASIONAL books of general
and recognized Importance.

JEWISH ORGANIZATION THAT HAS

100000 SOULS

What the Preamble OF the Amended
Constitution Says-Other Societies
Whose Objects Are Some
what Similar.

The Jewish order of Bnai Birth Sons
of the CovenanD covers with its organi-
cation four continents and has a mem
bership of more than 100000 souls. 1t
has district grand lodges in different
parts Of the world and seven of these
lodges are in the United States. Chi
cago is the seat of Grand Lodge No. 6.
The president is Adolph Loeb, 1S9 La
Sale street, and the grand secretary e.
c. Hamburgher. Among the members
of the general committee are Judge Phil
ip Stein and Henry Greenebaum. The
order was founded in 1S43 in the city of
New York. The original constitution
was revised and amended at the general
convention held In this city last spring.
The convention was in session five days,
beginning with April 20 and ending with
May 3. The preamble of the amended
constitution sets forth the objects Of the
order as follows:
The Independent Order OF B'nal Birth
has taken upon itself the mission of
uniting Israelites in the work of pro-
noting their highest interests and those
of humanity; of developing, elevating
and defending the mental and moral
character of our race; of intoxicating the
purest principles of philanthropy, honor
and patriotism; of supporting science and
art alleviating the wants Of the poor
d1lu AiSSuy,. NlSllAlS anu attending the
sick; coming to the rescue of victims of
persecution, providing for, protecting
and assisting the widow and orphan on
the broadest principles of humanity.
Besides having in Chicago the head
quarters of the district grand lodge, No.
6, >the order has ten local lodges, which
united have a membership OF about 1000
souls. Among these lodges, as among the
Jewish population in general, there is
great interest and movement in anticipa-
ton of the B'nai Birth fete that is to
celebrate in this city B'nai Birth day

Of people, which it is expected will be

the programme for one of the addresses.
AN INDEPENDENT ORDER.
There are several other Jewish societies
in the world whose objects are, in re-
stricted fields, similar to those of the
B'nai Birth, but this is an Independent
society or order, as it has no connection
with any other and works on lines and
in accordance with plan of its own.
The other societies or orders are all
local, though the locality of some OF
them is an entire nation. The Universal
Jewish Alliance Of France is not unit

in all countries. They are to be found In,

aims, though not much different from the
others, are taken Independently Of the

CHICAGO DISTRICT LODGE.
The district grand lodge of Chicago
was founded Sept. 20, 1868 The first
president of the organization was Henry
Greenebaum. Earlier in that year a
convention of members of the order was
held in Milwaukee and this convention
was dominated by spirit of which the
Chicago members did not approve, and
on their return to the city they resolved
to set up a district grand lodge of their
own. Henry Greenebaum is authority
for saying that this was done without
difficulty, and that the lodge at once
took the side 'of LIBERAL principles against
narrow minded sentiments The seal
of this district grand lodge has on 1t for
device a rising eagle holding in its beak
a streamer upon which the word Prog
ress" is engraved.
The Chicago members of the B'nai
Birth are enthusiastic in their loyalty
to the Organization. Mr. Greenebaum
and DR.. B. Felsenthal are sure that the
order has high mission that will not be
fulfilled till many generations have come
and gone.

SOME PRACTICAL OBJECTS.
Among the practical objects of this
order are charities and the rescue of the

Jews in Hungary. There the Jews have
for generations been among the most in
dustrious and useful Of the inhabitants;
than they are traders and have long been
regarded as indispensable to the welfare
of the best communities. But now the
spirit of wholesale persecution is rife In
that country and eIaigration has become
necessary. In aid Of emigration the Bnai
Birth order is lending its forces. Thou
sands of prosecuted Hungarian Jews are
already settled in different parts of South
America.
In the United States, persecution being

steadily pursued. The past few years a

charities has been effected The proceeds

TO UNITE IsRAEL1TEs.

at is the mission of the B'nai Birth
to unite Israelites for the advancement of
their own interest, together with the IN
terest of humanity. Charity and en-
lightenment have been watchwords of the
order, and wonderful record has been
made on those lines in the past There
are plenty of evidences of this work in
all places where lodges exist, from New
York to San Francisco, and from the
lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. To learn
and to teach is the command of the or
