Degree Conferred on Mountain.

About 100 from here took advantage
of the excursion to Newport, Thursday,
when the Masons from this vicinity
joined Golden Rule Lodge of Stanstead,
Que, in conferring the third degree. To
do this in the open air is unique in the
annals of Free Masonry, and this meet
ing, which took place on Owls Head,
was in celebration of the semi-centennial
of the first establishment of lodge on
the mountain top, The meeting was
held under the jurisdiction of Golden
Rule lodge, Stanstead, Que, which is the
only lodge in the wide world having
authority to hold open air meetings.
The original dispensation was granted
on July IA, 1857, at Montreal, by John
H. Graham, then grand master of the
grand lodge of Quebec.
This open air lodge room is about
1000 feet above the surface of Lake
Memphremagog, and is in deep de-
preston on the mountain side, around
which are lofty cliffs. The square and
compass are carved upon the rocky sides
of this natural lodge room and a stone
altar is in the usual place.
A good number not affiliated with
Masonry took advantage of this excur
sion, and spent their time on the steamer
Lady of the Lake" and in the pleasures
of basket picnic.

Railroad News.

Some important promotions in the
Connecticut & Passumpsic division of
the B. & NJ. go into effect tomorrow and
all are of especial local interest. 6. L..
r. French of Springfield, assistant super
intendent of the c. & P. division south
of Windsor, goes to Boston as superin-
tenbent of the terminal division. Mr..
French was formerly at the head of the
civil engineering department here and is
we'll remembered by many. His place in
Springfield will be filled by William H.
Ford, the assistant superintendent of the
c. & 2. division north of Windsor. The
news of Mr.. Ford's departure from Lyn-
donville was received with deep regret
as he and his family are exceedingl ly pop
ular and serviceable in the community.
Mr.. Ford is succeeded by George W..
Cree of St. Johnsbury, for 20 years con-
nected with the St. Johnsbury & Lake
Champlain railroad, and the assistant
superintendent since Mr.. Blossoms re-
tirement about eight years ago. Mr..
Cree will not move his family to Lyndon
vile for the present, but all will be sorry
to have them leave this community
Fred c. Mayo, who mas been IS years
with Mr.. Cree in the Lake road office, is
advanced to Mr.. Cree's place and his
many friends congratulate him on his
well-deserved promotion. Mr.. Mayo's
position has not yet been filed.
Through the summer months it has
been decided to run a milk train Sun
DAYS and the train runs on about the
same schedule as the regular mail train.
A passenger car is attached to this train
and as the train stops at every station
quite local business is being worked ur
in the passenger line.
While the passenger business is just
now at its height for the year the freight
traffic is lighter than in the spring. Yet
it may be news to most of our readers t6
know that 40 trains are run daily be
tween Newport and Wells River, which
is large business for a single track road
This includes extra freights which hav'
to be run daily to keep up with the bust
ness offered the road.
