Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks

Uren of Washington. E. III. Shafer of De
troit, James II. McNaHy of Philadelphia

twenty members of the local lodge.

The most stylish delegates in the Elks'
parade were the members OF Washington
ID. c. Lodge, No. IS. They were attired
in full-dress suits and top silk hats. They
looked as though they were ready to at
tend evening reception. The most re-
markable thing about the delegation, how
ever was the $40 gold coin certificates which

bills are of the Issue of 1905, and it was
said that none have yet appeared in eircu-
laton, the new bills worn by the members
being the first Issued by the Treasury De-
partment.
The exalted ruler of Washington Lodge
is Jesse S. Jackson. NJ. G. Mccormick
who for fifteen years has been treasurer
of Washington Lodge, wore upon his
breast famous gold badge, presented to
him by his fellow Elks. In the center of
the badge was a magnificent ten-carat
diamond
The Washington delegation was headed
by the 65th Regiment band of Buffalo,
which was warmly greeted along the line OF
march by its many friends in that city and
elsewhere
Business Suspended.

The Fourth Victim.

Turner Wildey. the fourth electric victim,
was at work in the sewer at Canal and d
streets about 900 o'clock last night, when
he received a shock. He was shocked by
taking hold of the wire along which the
material buckets are run. 1t is thought
that this wire was touching live electric
light wire and had become charged. Wild
ey. whose home is at 229 Half street south
west, was knocked down and rendered I'M
conscious when he received the shock. The
ambulance was summoned from the Emer-
gency Hospital and the injured man was
hurried to the hospital. Consciousness was
restored in a short time, but 1t was some
time before the patients sufferings were
relieved. He had received severe burns
about his hands and body and had also
been Injured by being thrown violently to
the ground. His condition was much better
this morning.

BRANCH IN TREASURY
CIVIL SERVICE RETIREMENT AS
ISOLATION
Organized Last Night in Perfect Har-
MISREPRESENTATION of Parent
Body Adopted.

BY the courtesy of the United States
Civil Service Retirement Association the
treasury branch of the association. which
was organized June %. met last night at
l424 New York avenue, the Offices of the
parent society, and adopted n constitution.
President James A. Sample presided and
the utmost harmony prevailed. Among the
thirty or more present were delegates
from various treasury bureaus and mem
bers of the executive committee of the
parent organization Discussion, after the
adoption of the constitution, turned to
ways and means for arousing interest in
the young as well the older clerks of
the Treasury Department and it's branches.
and the general plan of a series of rally
meetings to be addressed by prominent
officials and those known to be interested
III civil service retirement was considered.
INC general purpose of the treasury
branch as outlined by Vice President
Ilewellyn Jordan Is in entire conformity
to the aims of the retirement association.
This branch, he says. is the first local
branch, but it is confidently expected that
all the departments will follow suit and
that their constitutions will be practically
uniform and modelled after that adopted by
the treasury. Initial steps toward that
end nave been taken by the War Depart
ment.
The impetus to this generally awakened
interest comes from the parent organiZa-
non, whose Hnanclal secretary, Mr. David
- caldwell, has notified the several mem
berS of the executive committee to see
members in the various departments and
stimulate an interest in the organization
OF branches. The movement is in accord
ance with article ", sections and g. of
the constitution of the Retirement Asso-
citation, which says that any ten or more
members in one department or independ-
ent bureau of the government in Wash
ington, or any ten or more members in
any place other than Washington, may
form themselves into a branch organiza-
ton, and that any branch organization
may send to each annual meeting one or
more delegates, and such delegates shall
be entitled to cast the votes of all the
members of SUCH branch who are not
present in person

AiSCant Fruit Year,

stocks the markets from Baltimore
to Boston, and as far west as Buffalo,

isolated instances, where growers can
gather few scattering baskets from
their orchards, they will be able to
secure fancy prices. Other kinds OF
autumnal fruit are not in the usual

the fresh fruit supply has moved into

IT is PUBLICITY THAT is FEARED

The strongest force against any
evil in this country today is news
paper publicity. There are men who
will tell you that the newspapers Of
ten make public certain matters
which ought not to see the light of
day; that certain forms of evil are
shown up to a degree more terrible,
through the press, than they actually
are. These men fear publicity They
know that public sentiment can be
aroused more effectually by letting
the public look behind the scenes
than by any other agency. If an
evil is to be overthrow, if it is to be
eradicated from society, it must be
shown up. The best citizens of this
republic, who really have the good
and welfare of the people at heart,
seek to drive out every form of vice
which is sapping the morals of the
people. Publicity is the great weap-
on for the right. 1t is to be regrett-
ed that there are some journals, who
through their desire for political pres
tige, and to court the favor of corpo-
rations or to have the popular ear of
the unlawful element will not expose
evils; will not give publicity to
wrongs; but their influence lasts only
for a time

THIS ONE KNEW WHAT TO SAY
The Question of Weather Predictions
Similar to the Problem of DOGS.

a fellow from up East writes to
know which of the weather forecasts
in the almanac is considered the best.
He says a man out in st. Louis hits
its occasionally, and fellow down in
Atlanta hits it occasionally, and he
wants to know if one is better than
the other.
When the late argument between
the North and South broke out some
time ago there was an old mountaineer
living in eastern Tennessee who
didn't want to get mixed up in it. He
would never commit himself when the
question of war was being discussed
He bought two hound pups and
named one of them Abe Lincoln and
the other JEFF Daais. When the
Union sympathizers were around he
would call Abe Lincoln out of the
house, and when "A bunch of rebels
came around he would yell for jeff
Davis as if the dog was over on a
neighbor's farm.
Folks were anxious to find out Just
how the. fellow stood and wise one
in the neighborhood undertook to
learn the mountaineer's sentiments.
He called at his house one day, and
said. What's your dogs named, Jim. "
Abe Lincoln and jeff Davis" jim
replied as he continued to whittle
Which is the best dog, Jim" the
wise one asked. with a knowing twin
kle in his eye.
Jim stopped whiting and scared a
fly off the tip of his ear, and drawled,
"Ain't either of 'em worth darn"
