Order Of Workmen IN Receivers Hands

Max Ascher was reported receiver
of the grand lodge of the Ancient
Order Of United Workmen of Wis
consin Saturday by Judge Halsey
Of Milwaukee under bond of $50, 600.
This step marks the beginning of
legal proceedings to wind up the
affairs of the organization which
has about $4,000 Of unpaid
mortuary claims, about $4,000, 900
Of outstanding insurance in effect,
and $25, 900 of assets.
The action was instituted by the
officers Of the organization against
the trustees and will not be con-
tested, it is said, because the defen-
dant's realize that the present rate
of assessment is too low to permit
of the order being continued as 1t
has been in the past.
There are about 4, 100 members in
Wisconsin whose policies of insur-
ance will terminate If the order Is
wound up in the recelvership pro-
ceedings.
Liquidation will be directed by
receiver Ascher and his attorney,
Chas. Friend. Hume & Oellerich
of Oshkosh are attorneys for the
officers upon whose petitions the re-
ceiver was appointed. The defen-
dant trustees are represented by
Atty. Arthur S. Friend.
For five months mortuary claims
have not been paid, it is alleged.
The trustees have had numerous
meetings to determine what should
be done to place the order on
sound financial basis. But after de-
liberation it was determined on
Sept "a, that the order has con-
tinued too long at unwarranted low
rate Of insurance to permit Oh the
affairs Of the organization being
Strengthened without recourse to
the cour Is.
A large number Of the insured
are men of advanced age whose ex-
pectation of life IS short. 1t has
been practically conceded by the
men in charge Of the order that
there was no feasible way Of meet
ing these claims as they became
due, not to speak Of the balance of
5000, 900 of insurance distributed
among the 1000 members. The
conclusion was reached that the in
sured might as well be saved the
payment of future premiums.
The petition filed IN the circuit
court at Milwaukee AYERS that there
has been a great falling off in The
membership recently because OF
the financial condition of the order.
The members realized that the rate
of insurance was too low to permit
of all death claims being met. The
further allegation was made that
the trustees have opposed the high
er assessment which it was proposed
to put IN effect Oct. 1.
If the grand lodge Of Wisconsin
is abandoned, it is probable that
many of the members will elect to
affiliate themselves with the SUI
preme lodge of the Ancient Order
of United Workmen.

Supt. Pearse's Suggestion.

Visit your schools school officers
and citizens. Get your knowledge
of their workings first hand and dc
not base your opinion Of their gooo
or bad qualities upon the gossip Of
the crackerbox critics who infest
the corner grocery store.
In the smaller schools of the
state there is but one way of
minimizing school troubles and
rendering the trail of the trouble
some boy when hetis found) and
that is the special help hour. In
the larger cities they may have an
ungraded room, a special dlscip-
linary school or a parental school,
but the above method is suggested
by Supt. G. G. Peace, OF Milwau-
kee.
When a teacher has few pupils 1t
is easy to find opportunity for
individual help and suggestion, but
as the class grows the difficulty or
Individual work increases. In every
class there are some who need
personal attention and special
help hour after school may put
courage into the faint hearted, in
spiration into the pupil who is
disposed to lag; clear up difficulties
for the boy who otherwise would
fail at promotion.
This special help period is practi-
cable in any school under any
system of organization or classified
ton. It's intelligent use will re-
move a multitude Of small causes
for trouble. It is not unusual that
the laggard, that the boy that IS
behind in his lessons; who does not
understand his work; who is out OF
touch with his teacher, is trouble
maker in the room,

Railroad Orders Finish UP.

The Order of Railway Conductors
and the Brotherhood of Railway Train
men, on the Union Pacific, through
their representatives, have finished
their biennial conference in Omaha,
the last work having been completed
Thursday. All of the trainmen have
now completed their biennial confer,
ences and each has had extended inter
views with the Union Pacific officials,
talking over conditions and prospects.
One of the delegates said:
Complete Understanding Exists.
we had no complaints to make and
everything is harmonious between the
orders and the railroad company. We
have simply been holding our biennial
conference to keep in touch with cur
rent events and to become better ac
quainted with the officials of the road
A complete understanding exists be
tween us and the officials and W. an
ticipate no trouble of any kind

ANOTHER STRONG
PRESENTATION LAST NIGH.

The Opera House vas filled again
last night to witness the presentation
of "A Ruined Life by the Josephine
Deffry company, and like the produc-
ton of the previous night, the piece gave
entire satisfaction. There is much
room in the piece for the display of
the emotional talents of the members
of the company, particularly il the
leading part taken by Miss Deffry as
l"Densie.' Her acting was again su,
perb and her support of a high order.
The piece has a strong moral lesson
and while at times a little delicate to
handle, in the skillful hands of this
excellent company there was nothing
that could be taken as offensive.
Tonight la Belle Russo" will be pre-.
scented as the closing bill of the engage
ment of the Deffrys in Laramie and the
splendid work done on the previous two
evenings gives assurance that another
treat is in store. The house will no
doubt be filled again.
