pointed and commissioned Brethren

b. Griggs, of Elizabeth Ciey; y. j. Har-
rell, of Goldsboro, and w. A. Foster, of

Williams, of Davidson, as Assistant
Grand Lecturers. Ia August | wrote to
each of the Grand Lecturers asking them
to make Il report to me by December
first of the number of Lodges lectured,
the average attendance of the officers
and brethren, whether due obedience is
paid to the constitution laws and teach
ings of Masonry and the general state OF
the craft.
The reports received are highly graft
flying and show the craft to be i'll a pres
porous condition; and the effort ON the
part of the Lodges to procure the au-
thorized work unprecedented in the his
tory of the craft.
This is due to the guarantee given by
the Grand Lodge as to the permanently OF
the work and that uniform system OF
teaching is practiced 10y the several lee
tuners.

SAFELY RETURNED HOME
MARTIN, YOUNG MAN WHO BE.
CAME DERANGED HERE.
]. j. Macdonald Leaves Him with HIS
Father at Santa Cruz-Much Improv-
ed-Comments of a Paper.

j. j. Macdonald returned by the Yea
landia yesterday morning from Santa
Cruz, whittier he went carr in the
month in company with Ben Martin,
the young man who became mentally
deranged here some weeks ago ana was
committed to the insane asylum fo1
treatment. He was accorded a most
enjoyable reception in Southern Cali
fornia, and the spirit inducing the mis-
sion seems to have been greatly apprc-
ciated by Odd Fellows in that pact Of
the country.
Soon after the attention Of the police
had been called to the eccentricities of
the unfortunate young Californian,
members of Harmony Lodge, Number
g. l. o, o. F., discovered that his father
was an odd Fellow in good standing.
| They Immediately visited the asylum
and assumed responsibility for any eX-
ira care that he might need, and then
! began arrangements to return him to
| the home of his father, believing that
| this change would be better than me-
| dicine and the attention of trained nu, %
ses. j. ]. Macdonald was selected TO
make the trip with the patient and was
entirely successful in his mission.
Mr. Macdonald found Martins father
! to be a prominent lawyer and an old
| friend of Judge Estee. A brother of the
| young man met the pair in San Fran
cisco and Mr.. Macdonald was entertain
| eu by the former at WatSOnNllle day
! and a night. At meeting of Odd Eel
lows held there, there were warm eX-
pressions of appreciation of the action
of the local odd Fellows in taking care
of one of their neighbors and friends.
! The following is what the Santa Cruz
! Herald had to say of the return Of
| young Martin:
There is a tie than binds. Ben Mar
| tin, after an absence of nearly three
months in Honolulu, is restored to the
| family of his father. He was mentally
unfortunate almost from the start, los
ing his memory on his arrival at the
! Islands. The climate was against him,
and he was a strangerin a strange land.
Just as soon as it was learned there
that he was the son of an Odd Fellow
in good standing in Santa Cruz county,
| Harmony Lodge, /. O. O. F., there
threw around the sick man the protec-
ton Odd Fellowship extends to odd
Fellows and members of their families.
Ben lacked for nothing from that day
his people, j. j. Macdonald in behalf
of Harmony Lodge, accompanying him
! from Honolulu to Santa Cruz. From
the day the returning ship sailed the
sick man commenced to gain his health
and it is confidently predicted that In a
week he will be himself again. His
work ended Bro. Macdonald sails Sa-
turday for his home, and the links
charity, love and friendship stretch
from the mainland to the distant ISL
ands in the sea, and over both the Anne
rican flag floats in all its beauty"

Twelve Chinese and Is japanese were
up in the police court this morning for
gambling. The Chinese had been play
ing Paikow and the Japs had mingled
in a session of Johun. Paikow and
Johun are the same except in name and
in that they differ according to the ma
tionality Of the players.
Paikow is played with a banker, some
dice, some domnoes and as many bet
tors as want to play. The other gam
blers bet with the dealer about the size
of a domino to be turned up. The in
ventor of this game succeeded in think
ing up a gambling game in which alb
solutely everything is left to chance.
Nothing that any of the players can dc
has any effect on the results which are
much chance as the tossing of a coin or
throwing dice. The game has become
quite popular among both Chinese and
Japs, who love to take their gambling
straight, without mixing up science or
skill with their chances"
The dealer shakes the dice in Paikow
and the result decides which player
shall first draw a domino. If a four
shows player number four draws a do
mino. Then the dealer draws one and
the man whose domino is highest wins
the money. Any sum will do Some OF

Victoria.

VICTORIA Oh. c November 6-The
Empress of Japan which sailed last
night for Yokohama and her usual
ports of call in the far East, returned
tonight for repairs after having been in
collision with the American ship Abbey
Palmer off the entrance to the straits.
The ship, which was bound up from Ho-
nolulu in ballast, according to those on
the Empress, crashed into the liner
amidships and destroyed part of her
bridge and bulwarks on the port side,
as well as bending some of the steamers
plates near the water line. She is, how
master, though, was of the opinion that
that her return for repairs was necessi-
Lsquimalt dry dock after discharging
her cargo.
The ship had her bowsprit carried
whether otherwise damaged those on
the liner could not make out. She
squared away and sailed up for the
straits.
The seaman who was on the lookout
for the ship was thrown on to the liner
when the ship crashed into her and
landed on one of the lifebOat covers.
He was uninjured.
Several passengers on the Empress,
including the American Consul at Foo
Chow, w. II. Gracey, were passengers
on the steamer Duke OF Fife, which re-
turned yesterday because OF having
sprung leak OF the cape.
