ElkS ARE COMING
Lodge to be Organized in Will.
mar March 23...Many Visitor.
Expected.

Az . result Of the efforts put forth
by local members of the Benevolent
and Protective Order of Elks, 4 local
lodge will be organized here on Thurs
day, March %, by w. w. Koons,
grand~d!strict deputy exalted ruler OF
the Minnesota district of that order.
A special train from st. Paul to Will.
mar, going by way Of st. Cloud, will
arrive here At l:30 p. m. on that day,
bearing delegations of E!ks from
Austin, Redwine, St. Paul, Minnea-
polls, Duluth, st. Cloud, Brainerd
and Lite Falls. 1t 10 expected that
no less than 300 visitors will be here
at that time and the needed arrange
ments are being made for their enter
tainment. The St. Cloud lodge will
have charge of the initiation, which
will take place at the opera house.
That lodge will also bring its two Elk
bands and its orchestra, which will
furnish the music needed for the occa-
sion. After the initiation ceremonies.
an elaborate banquet will be served
at the Bonde hall. At2 p. m. there
will be 4 street parade, when the
fawns Who are desirous of bee oming
elks will be chaperoned thru the city
by number Of old elks, until the
goats can be ready for the no doubt
interesting ride.
The movement for the establishing
of an Elk lodge here was inaugurated
in September OF last year. The con-
stitution Of the order OF Elks permits
local organizations only In cities
having q population of 5000, and a.
the census Of 1900 showed Willmsr's
population to be only about 3,400 1t
became necessary to order . specisl
census-which was taken some time
ago at the expense of the Elk lodg ge-
and % q result our population was
found to be 5,069.
At the present time the new lodge
has membership of more than 100,
and as the territory over which it will
have jurisdiction Is one of the largest
in the state, its membership will NO
doubt increase rapidly from the time
the organic alton is formed.
Among the resident members of the
lodge are: Henry l.. johnson, A.
Bake, Of the Jones Clothing C Co.;
J. p. Hull, superintendent North.
western system OF elevators, and the
following employees Of the Great North:
ern: L. A. May. depot agent; G. W.

ell, chief train dispatcher, and W.
w. Howard, relief agent.

Ditched Near Smith Lake.

The Great Northern Flyer, due here
at 11:27 p. m. was ditched near Smith
Lake Saturday evening 1T about eight
O'Clock while running at q speed OF
about 40 miles an hour. The entire
train, except the engine, consisting of
two baggage coaches, two sleepers, q
diner and four passenger coaches,
left the track but strangely enough
not one passenger was injured. This
WAS partly due to the level grour d
and the fact that none of the coaches
we're upset when the accident occurred.
The following Wil]mar parties were
aboard the train: Mr.. and Mrs. Alton
Crosby, F. J. stansberry, K. Samuel.
son and Theodore Linn. The passen-
gers were obliged to remain In the
different coaches until about seven
O'Clock Sundsy.I morning, when q
special arrived from Minneapolis to
take them to their respective desti-
nations. The special arrived here
about 9 o clock.

To the Local Optionists of Texas.

You are urgently invited to at.
tend the annual convention of the
Texas Local Option Association at
the city hall, Dallas, Texas, July
4th, 1905, beginning at 10 a. m.
Matters of vital Importance to
the best interests of society and
good government in Texas will be
under consideration. Every friend
of the church, of the home and of
civic righteousness in Texas, who
can do so, ought to attend this
meeting. We have selected this
date because of the reduced rail.
road rates that will prevail at that
time.
Remember the Texas Local Op-
ton Association is not political
organization and that it's sole pur-
pose is to aid by non.partizan, non
sectarian methods in closing the
drunkard factories in Texas and
keeping them closed.
If you want to help to accom-.
plish this purpose and no organi-
cation sends representatives from
your community, consider yourself
delegate and come.
Write our secretary regarding
any matters Of special interest.

Statue to a WasherWOman

Some of the newspapers are saying that, excepting the statue of Miss Willard in the capitol at Washington, there was no other statue of a woman in the country until the statue of Saoajawea, the Bird woman, was placed at the Portland Fair-that is to say no monument to honor an Amer ican woman. At New Orleans is a statue to Margaret. She was a poor washerwoman who work ed many years to earn a fortune to be used to build a home for waifs of the streets, little children the orphans of the poor. After her death the people of New Or leans erected a monument to her and placed her statue omit. The statue is holding in it's arms a figure of one of the children. This was really the first monu- ment and statute erected to an America woman.
