FIFTEENTH AND SIXTEENTH AND
WORK IN ROSE CROIX CHAPTER.
A Banquet for Eight Men at
the TempIe-Mr. overstreet's
Address.

At Scottish Rite Temple yesterday after
noon the fifteenth and sixteenth degrees
were conferred on a class of candidates by
Saraiah Council. Princes of Jerusalem.
Last night the same class was Civ
en- the seventeenth and eighteenth
degrees by Indianapolis Chapter of
Rose Croix. Visitors were present
yesterday from Columbu and Dayton.
o., Grand Rapids and Chicago. At 5 O'Clock
yesterday afternoon a banquet was served
to about eight hundred people. J.. w.
Staub presided as The ad-
dress of welcome was delivered by Joseph
E. Bell. Toasts were responded to as fol-
lows: "Our Country" Charles w. Miller;
Grand Lodge, F. and A. M" Martin II.
Rice; Ancient and Accepted Scottish
Rite" Jesse Overstreet; THE Class" Ar
thur Irwin.
Representative Overstreet, in his remarks,
took up the history of the Rite. discussing
it's foundation and the principles on which
the different degrees are founded. He APP
piled the teachings of the order to the de-
velopment of character for the Christian
izing Of the world. In pursuing this line
OF thought Mr.. OverStreet singled out the
growth of the different degrees and empha-
sized the fact that the embellishments and
symbols of the order are merely settings
or the truths ana duties Wnlcn eacn lnOl-
vidual must apply in his personal conduct.
Mr.. Overstreet's address was pronounced
one of the finest ever delivered on a SINH
lar occasion.
1t was a matter of comment at the Tenn
pie yesterday that George Godfrey, the
only Indian member of this consistOry, was
absent. Godfrey is i'll at his home in Fort
Wayne with hasty 1t is said
this is the first cOnVOcation he has missed
in, perhaps. twenty years. Godfrey's father
was chief of the OLD Godfrey tribe of In
dians, that formerly inhabited the territory
in northern Indiana now known as the God
frey reserve.
Members Of the Scottish Rite are much
pleased with the announcement that the
bill giving the widow of the late Colonel
Ruckle a pension of $50 a month is to be
successful. Two bills were prepared-one
by Mr.. Overstreet and another by one of
the Indiana senators. The bills were iden-
teal, and the latter was introduced and
passed in the Senate, and has been favOra-
bly, reported on by the House committee.
Mr.. Overstreet is looking after the bill in
the House, and says it Will soon pass.

Mrs. Louisa Britton Asks the Assist
ance of the Police.

Mrs. Louisa Britton. 1881 Nordyke avenue,
asked the police yesterday to assist in a
search for her husband, George Britton,
who is mysteriously missing. She said she
left Indianapolis March 1 for a visit TO
relatives at Maysville. KY. She returned
last Saturday. During her absence she
wrote a number Of letters to her husband,
but got no reply. When she returned Sat
urday she found the house locked and all
Of the letters she had written stuck under
the front door. Inquiry among the neigh
bOrs showed that no one had seen Britton
since she went away.
She made inquiries at the Interstate
stockyards. where he had been employed,
and could learn nothing about him after
March /. She told the police that she now
recalls that just before she left and after
the arrangements had been made he COM
planned of feeling i'll, and she proposed to
wait a few days. He insisted that she go
on her visit, and she finally consented. She
thinks he has become i'll or has suffered
some injury. She said they had always
lived happily together. and there was, so
far as she knew, no reason why he should
want to leave her. He is thirty-eight years
of age, and. according TO Mrs. Britton, was
not addicted TO the use OF liquor.
