INCEPTION OF THE MOVEMENT

A national Masonic temple for the ma

of the District.
The big May festival which has been
planned for the week beginning May 81 Is
designed to greatly increase the already
large temple fund. In connection with the
active movement on foot to build the tenn
pie Mr. John Il Olcott, secretary of the
Masonic Temple Association, has forwarded
to Mr.. Thomas c. Noyes chairman of the
board of control of the Masonic May fes-
tival. the following statement of the status
of the temple fund:

The site corner of II street, 18th street
and New York avenue. costing $115,OOO has
been paid for In full and the buildings on
the site yield a revenue more than sufficient
to pay the current expenses of the Masonic
Temple Association. that money received
from sale of stock can be laid aside for
the purpose of erecting the temple.

the unanimous adoption of a resolution to
the effect that committee of five be ap-

the cooperation of other Masonic bodies of
this jurisdiction through such committees

Kramer Says This Is His
Last Year in Racing
Game.
MAKES THIS STATEMENT
ON LEAVING EUROPE
Is Anxious to Defeat the SWede
and Retire With His
Title.

| According to the Bicycling World.
| Frank Kramer, who at present holds
the American bicycle championship,
will probably retire from the game at
| the end OF the present season. For sew
eral years past Kramer has carried off
the championship on the American cir
cults and his retirement VIII be little
short of an historic event in the bicy-
cling world. Kramer, however. has not
won the American championship this
year.
Must Defend Title Here.
At Vailsburg there is little interest In
the game, and so this year for the first
time he finds himself under the neces-
sity Of coming to the Salt Palace saucer
track to defend his tiJle. He comes here
supposedly to ride several match races
with Iver Lawson, but IN reality to
make good for another year, and his
last. by the way, his title to the Amer
lean championship. Since Kramer In
tends 10 retire at the end of the pres
ent year his desire to win and retire
with the championship which he has
held so long is naturally very great,
but in Lawson he will find a worthy
competitor, one whom many OF the local
enthusiasts believe his peer.
Statement on Leaving Europe
Prior to leaving Europe after winning
the Grand Prlx de Paris, Kramer was
asked IL he would return to Europe
next year and compete IN the cham
pionship races. 1T is hardly probable"
he answered. 'It is my intention TO
quit the game after this years Ameri-
can championship. If some extraordi-
nary proposition is made to me l may
change my mind, but 1t is doubtful"
Chapman Has Received Letter.
Manager Chapman OF the Salt Pal
ace saucer track received a letter yes
terday from Frank Kramer Kramer
wants to come on TO Salt Lake to get
into the game here and Chapman's
offers to him are enough inducement
to cause him to state in his letter that
he Will leave within week or so for
Zion.
VIII Ride French Style.
In his letter to Chapman, Kramer
expressed the desire that none of the
match races to be arranged between
him and IYer Lawson be for q distance
Of less than a half-mile. Chapman
Will respect his wish, and will arrange
a series of races starting from the
half-mile point and going upward |
There VIII be three nights I'm August
In which Kramer will appear against
Lawson. The first will be the 14th, |
the second night the 18th and the
third the 21st All races will be rid
den In the French style, There is the
keenest sort of interest in these
match races TO be held between Kra-
mer and Lawson. They are unques-
tionably the two best riders In the |
world. The fact that Iver has a de-
cided advantage in being familiar with |
the track Will, of course, initiate |
against Kramer's chances.
