GRAND LODGE OF ODD FELLOWS.
The Orphans Home Properly Accepted r.
D. Burns Elected Deputy Grand Master.

The annual meeting of the Grand
Lodge of the Independent Order of Odd
Fellows of South Carolina was held in
Greenwood on May IL and r. All the
Grand Lodge officers were present, and
an unusually fine attendance of repre-
There were over sixty junior Past Grands
admitted as members of the Grand
Lodge.
The most important work was the es-
tNplishment of the Orphans Home. The
committee, through l.. N. Zealy, reported
that the amount of S7,0S8.46 had been
received, of which amount the sum of
5000 had been paid for the Orphans
Home, and that a balance of $2,OS8. .48
was on hand for furnishing and equip
ping the homo. The Orphans Home
tax now raises about $1,000 per anpum.
This will amply provide for all the re-
quirements of the home at present. This
is an institution that is close to the heart
of every brother in this Grand Jurisdic-
tion, and may we always live up to this
portion OF our duty towards our moro
unfortunate brothers and their loved
ones, by caring for the orphans who
shall come to our home, and that it may
"a living monument to the glorious
@tto: Friendship, love and truth"
The law in regard to clubs of ten was
repealed and now the law fixes the uni
form rate of five dollars for the initia-
tory, and one dollar each for the other
three degrees. This, in great measure,
was compromise between the old rate
and the club plan.
The salary of the Grand Secretary was
raised to $500 per annum, and he was
also made ex-officio State Organizer at a
salary of three dollars per day and nee.
essary expenses when instituting new
lodges. This makes the Office of Grand
Secretary very important, and our pres
ent officer, DR.. S. f. Killingsworth, is
very competent and efficient and we ex-
pect good results to follow from the in
auguration of this plan.
The deliberations of the grand body
we're harmonious and the best of feel
ings prevailed.

That gentleman, with Mir. Geo. w. Crum, manager of the export department of the San Francisco house, were at Guaymas last week perfecting the necessary arrangements.
 The new warehouse of F. Cosca X Co.,, at guaymas is 90 36 feet, beside an annex for machinery for grading "garbanzos" The peas are run through revolving cylind- CTS, perforated, like "sizers" in q concentrating mill for sizing finely bfoken ores before they go to the rolls. The graders, wbich are to be propelled by an engine sort out the peas into four sizes, doing the work expeditiously and throughly.

They are Miss Lorena Stapler from Talequah, and Miss Tuga Turner from Muskogee.
 Mrs. George Beebe of Cieneguita Copper Company, who has been in New York and California several months, returned to Sonora a couple of week ago, and was at La Colorado last week purchasing supplies for shipment to the Cie- neguita Copper Company. While at Hermosillo the lady closed a deal with Carmen Ortega for the Realito and Buela mines, near Cieneguita, in the Sahuaripa dis trict.
 Tn the valley of the Lower Ya- qui there has been great loss from the heavy rains. The river has been higher than ever before re- corded and many of the ranches have been inundated, completely destroying the growing crops. 1 Elsewhere the wheat is destroyed l by rust, or is rotting. As soon as { the weather and condition of the ground will permit the fields will be plowed anew and new crops \ planted--cotton or corn.
 l Mr. Walter c. Brace from Den yer, Colorado, has been visiting 1 Sonora in the interest of capital i seeking investment in the smelt- Ling and refining industry, to in- vestigate and report upon the pro- Liabilities and possibilities for the proposed enterprise of that nature at Guaymas, which has been grant ed liberal concession by the I federal authorities for the conduct of such business. As an outlay of more than half million dollars in gold is involved the gentleman IS proceeding very deliberately and { thoroughly in the prosecuting of his Investigations.

 hours, was unable to lower the

 and fine, with a temperature of 9s
 degrees Fahrenheit, and is without deleterious foreign substances which
 would deposit scale or crust in

 similar to that at Querobabi, com pleted last year, which was also sunk to a depth of 1000 feet, the water rising to the same height in ] the we'll as at Torres. Wells com pleted at Agua Zarca and Casita have given the same satisfactory

She is an actress of most pleasant quality, and although more mature in her art than when she played in this city with the Rem per Stock company, she is as pretty and as engaging as she was in tic role Of Rosalind in those earlier days
 Cousin Kate is preceded by a one-act tragedy on the life of Thomas ChattertOn. the poet, many versions of whose pathetic struggles have been put on the stage. The new one. which was written for Miss Gallatin by Stu art MacLean, is very similar to that given some years ago by Miss Mar lowe.

Fl. GRANT WILL BE BIG ARTILLERY POST This is the Latest Reliable Information h Army
 Circles

From reliable authorities We learn that Ft. Grant. which is at present practically abandoned by the United States government, with the exception of a keeper, is soon to be re-establish- ed and made an artillery post and four or five batteries to be stationed there. This decision has been arrived at re- gently by the army authorities on ac- count of the excellent opportunities offered at Grant for artillery practice. With the establishment of an artillery post there it will mean the Quartering of from 100 to 800 men and will again make that post one of the most prOmi- nenJ in the Territory. and that section of Graham county resume its lively appearance.
 In this connection it might be well to state that the government expects 10 abandon Ft. Apache in April next, or that is the present plan. Promi- nent citizens in that section of the Territory are making efforts to have the government continue the use of the post on account of the restless condition of the Indians in that locali- tv and the recent trouble that was had there There is no doubt but what at the present time the move would he a bad one for the ranchers in that section of the Territory.

0'HARE PROVES TO
 BE A WINNER Title to Mountain View Mine is Mayor in an
 Awkward Fix

Information reached the city during the present week from the Commis- sioner of the United States Land Of fee at Washington, to the effect that the application of the owners of the Mountain View Mining claim for a patent has been granted. thereby everything the decision of the Land Office officials at Tucson. where the case was heard during the early part of 1905.
 IL VII be remembered by readers of the Review that at the time Martin O'Hare, owner of the Mountain View claim, made application for a patent, several of the property owners, whose residences were located on the Noun lain View claim, jOurneyed to Tucson and entered protest against the grant ing of the patent on the ground that the Mountain View claim was not mineral bearing ground. J. M. O'Con- nell appeared for the protestants, and Attorneys Hawkins and Ross. of Prescott, appeared fer MT. O'Hare. The hearing of the case occupied sev- eral days, and after reviewing the tes- timony the Register and Receiver of the Land Office at Tucson rendered a decision in favor of the protestanIs. Immediately an appeal was taken to the Commissioner of the Land Office at Washington who has just handed Gown his decision reversing the Land Office officials at Tucson.
 In the meantime Mayor Taylor, act ins as Trustee in the ToWnsite appli- cation matter, by authority of a pat enr issued by the Land Office, has is sued deeds to property owners on the Mountain View claim. Complications will certainly arise if the decision of the Commissioner of the Land Office is sustained in his ruling by the Sec rerary of the Interior, an appeal hay ing already been taken in the matter. The Secretary of the Interior must now either overrule his Commissioner -ot the General Land Office, or sustain the decision of the Register and Re ceiVer of the Tucson Land Office. Tn the event that the Commissioner IS sustained. property owners in that neighborhood of Bisbee will find them selves ir possession of deeds from the Trustee of the Bisbee Townsite, call ing for ground awarded to Martin OHare.
 In rendering his decision in this case the Commissioner states that he has gone over the testimony carefully and is of the opinion that the Noun lain View claim would give good re- turns if a mining man was allowed to prosecute the development work.
 Attorneys for the protestants when seen yeStrday were of the opinion that the Secretary of the Interior would promptly overrule the decision of the Commissioner, passing their opinion that the reasons for his decision would not stand in the courts.

Lowell, Dee. l5.
 J. W. Baker, attorney, was today turned down with a thud In the court of Justice Hogan. Baker brought ac- lion for SITS against II. L. Grenard, of Naco. He was allowed s5.S5.

Meantime team of mules, a wagon and harness had been attached as property of the defendant. and was held pending the suit. According to the decision of the latter the attachment was dis missed and the defendant allowed to go on payment of the S5 he had bor- rowed from plaintiff in addition to the amount he had lost at the gambling table, In the whole this action of the court was refutation of the right of a gambler to collect on the promis- sory note or check given by him to one who was engaged in his games at loss.

Sam Somerfield was brought to this city last evening by Constable Jack White to face a charge of forgery in the amount of $40 perpetrated upon the Copper Queen store. The young man used the name of his father on the false order. and the signature has been repudiated. The young man, it is stated, will have 10 face vigorous prosecution. He is we'll known about the city and of good appearance. Off cer White picked him up at NacO where he was awaiting a train to Can anea. When the officer appeared SOmerfieid greeted him happily and apparently without misgiving as to what was in store for him. When locked up in this city last night the young man declined to make any statement concerning his trouble.
 Roy WhiJtlesey was a passenger out yesterday morning in custody of Deputy Sheriff Bonnet, his bondsmen having surrendered him on Monday The reason they gave was that Whit tlesey had been on a spree in this city for several days, and they were not confident as to the manner of behay- iOOA nC lAl5lL lOllOh uuuNA llC AuAlG- ence of liquor. Whittlesey is the man who shot a woman at Tombstone while endeavoring to force an en- trance to a residence in Tombstone several months ago. at the time his wife secured a divorce from him.
 The complaint against W. E. Me COrmick was withdrawn yesterday in the court Ofs Justice Murphy in con nection with the fight which occurred Sunday night at the Dunbar lodging house on O. K Street. When the complaint was withdrawn it was es- tablished 10 the satisfaction of the court that Mccormick had been in volved in the trouble only as a peace maker.
 The stabbing case in connection with the Dunbar House trouble and the Williams burglary case are still hanging fire, because of the inability of Justice Murphy to secure the at tendance of a representative of the of fee of the District Attorney to con duct the cases in his court. The statement is made from the office of the District Attorney that court mat ters now at hand are of such pressing character that it is impossible to look after outside business immediately.
