One of the exceptionally interesting So
cial features of the week was the institu-
ton of the May Temple, Number 22,
Rathbone Sisters, and installation of Of
ficers on Monday evening last. The ex-
qualification of the work by the degree
teams from Central City and Black Hawk
was especially interesting because these
two Temples are said to represent the
best drilled working material in the state.
About forty-fve people from Central City
and Black Hawk were present, having
driven over that evening for the purpose
of having big time, and awaited the
pleasure of the moon to return. As re-
suit it was nearly 3 a. m. before the
ladies of the auxiliary of the Knights of
Pythias lodge and their friends were ready
to return In the meantime they had
been most generously and literally enter
tanned by the Local knights, and the
charter members and officers of the new
Temple of the Rathbone Sisters.
Mr.. and Mrs. A. H. Page had spread
the lunch, which is said to have been one
of the finest spreads that Idaho Springs
has had for years. Strawberries, ice
cream. and cake of every variety tempted
the tastes of the local lodge and the Wis
itors as we'll.
As before stated it was the social event
of the season so far, and the list of officers
and charter members of the new Temple
would indicate that it will become a

Washington, Sept. 7.-InforInation
which is considered reliable says that

The Information comes from such
sources az to indicate President Roose-

more nor less than the visit and the
speech of a missionary, designed tc
draw forth public and private comment
before tina action is taken toward put
