THE KNIGHTS
ENTERTAINMENT
House Filled to the Hall Door and
Everybody Enjoyed the Entire
Program.
THE LODGE IS PROPEROUS

Tncumcari Lodge No 20 is much elated,
as indeed it has right to be, over h e
splendid success of its first public enter
tainment. The pythian Hall was decora-
ted with flags, bunting and the emblematiC
colors of the Order, this particular part of
the preparations being attended to by
Messrs Frank Baker and 5. N Brewer
The guests, who had begun to assemble
early in the evening, by o'clock filled the
Castle Hall to overflowing, and a little later
there was not even standing room | e { I

invited everybody present to join the Lodge
in singing that grand national II h m ,

perhaps, more nearly expresses the sentl-

that he was like the minister over at Tus-
con, whose congregation requested his res
ignation because he talked and k d
without pintin out arghed and argifed
without shown wherein"
1t was decided by the Lodge that since
we are the last of the secret orders to he
instituted in our town, it would be proper
for some one to give brief history of the
Order.
ITO trace its origin we must look be-
yond the curtain of the past into the msts
Christ the scenes and events transpred
that gave to the world the Order that is as
noble in conception as it is sublime in pur-
pose. 1t has other aims than aforoing
married men an excuse for staying out late
at night.
Then the speaker recounted the history
of the Pythagorian Era explaining in a very
clever way the true friendship that bound
Pythas. the soldier and Knight and Damon
a senator in the councils of state. Damon
had incurred the displeasure of Donysius,
the tyrant king, and was sentenced to death
when Pythias plead with the king that a
respite be granted that Damon might visi,
his wife and child before he died offer
ing himself hostage for Damon, thus
pledging his return. The valiant soldier
and chivalrous Knight was shackeled in
the dismal cell OF Damon who fastened to
his home among vineyards of the Sicilian
coast where dwelt in happiness his lovely
wife and child, where clustered the joys
and pleasures dearer than life, sweeter

&. &. Davidson, Chancellor Commander
of 20, was now called to welcome his guests
to the hospitality of his lodge He spoke
in part as follows:
Ladies' and Gentleman: The pleasure
that it affords me to extend to you the well

of PythiaS, is only exceeded by the degree
of embarrassment that it causes me to APP
pear before an audience.
Were | accustomed to public address
or an orator, | know of no theme | would
prefer to discuss thar that of Pythianism.
In arranging for this entertainment it was
the intention OF the Lodge to have plenty
of music and refreshments and but little
speaking, and am therefore. going to talk
only two hours, the lenght of an average
sermon.

Completing the story, the speaker follow
ed the theme on up to 1904 when Justus
Henry kathbone, in the gloomy days of the
civil war organized the modern society of
Knights of Pythias, the conception coming
from the story of these Grecian heroes, his
object being to blot out the chasm then ex-
listing between the North and the South.
The speaker concluded his splendid
effort as follows
'Pythianism recognizes the the frailties

courages benevolence. Such ladies and

Then came a solo, The Violets, "by Mrs.
Mason, which was very good, indeed-her
songs always are.
Prof. w. f. Dndey, the Grand Vice of
the Order in New Mexico, was then intro
duced and made very able address. We
quote him as follows:

me few minutes ago, asked to he ex-

NOT FOR POSTOFEICE

The new building to be erected DIT
the east end of the wagon bridge by
the Wood County bank people will
not be occupied by the postoffice. In
the first place if the government
desires building there would not be
floor room space sufficient in this
building for this purpose. as the
department will require at least a
building 80 feet wide and 80 feet deep
for their purpose and the building
would have to be available at the rear
