II the present plans are carried out
Council Bluffs IN the near future will have
another large temple as the home Of one
OF the strongest orders IN the state of Iowa.
The building will be erected by the Knights
Of the Maccabees.
The local camp OF the knights Of the
Maccabees has at present over 700 mem
bers and is said to be the strongest In
the state. During the recent visit OF State
Commander Ermerine, the project Of build
ing a permanent home for the order in the
city was given a start and the members
are determined to carry it out. Owing
to the large membership, the camp has
been unable to secure quarters commodious
enough and on special meeting nights the
rooms in the Brown block, which the order
recently occupied, are entirely inadequate.
William II. Rogan, record keeper Of the
local camp, and district deputy has taken
the matter OF erecting a building in hand
and is vigorously pushing It along. The
members are enthusiastic over the PROPOSE
tion and Mr.. Rogan stated yesterday that
he was confident that before many months
the city would see the construction Of
another temple. The Odd Fellows and the
Masons, both own handsome temple build
ingsi and the Elks one of the most complete
club houses in the country.

PRETENDER is A PRISONER
suitan's Troops Defeat and Capture
Blu Hsmars, who sought Moor
ish Throne.

TANGIER, Feb. THE sultan's troops
have utterly routed the forces Of the Moor
ish pretender and captured Blu Hamara
himself.
A special courier who arrived today,
after making a record journey from Fee,
brought this news. He reports that at
daybreak last Thursday the army Of the
sultan, commanded by the war minister, Ell
Menebhi, attacked the pretender's position
and inflicted a complete defeat on his fol-
lowing. at the same time capturing Blu
Hamara.
Another runner confirms the news Of the
defeat of the rebels, but says the report OF
the capture of the pretender 10 Incorrect.
He adds that Il is uncertain whether Blu
Hamara's body was among the great num-
Der slain.
The sultan's victory was absolute almost
the entire following Of the pretender being
either slain or captured. His camp, arms
and ammunition were taken, and the ar
tillery lost by the sultan's army in the
battle of December 20. was recaptured.
Even II Blu Hamars escaped 1t is impos-
sible for him to retrieve his defeat, as his
claim that he is a saint is exploded.
The details regarding the battle are
meager, but it is known the p~retender's
camp was rushed at avn There is great
rejoicing here over the victory.
LONDON, Feb. Ia dispatch to the
Morning Leader mentions a circumstantial
report current in Tangier that Blu Hamara
was brought to Fec in a cage and exposed
to public derision.
The dispatch adds that 1t is impossible
to ascertain the truth and attributes the
sultan's victory more to his bribery Of the
