Occur d'Alene is represented by
practically every prominent secret

Woodmen Of America, and new ones
are organizing from time to time.
The beneficiary features of many
Of these orders are evident at the death
Of its members. Fair and adequate
means are provided to assist the
afflicted in the darkest trials Of life.
In addition, In some organizations,
an appropriate tombstone 10 guaran-
teed the member at death. The

erous occasions. Kindness Is extend

ders Is generAllylCompOsed of the bet,

tention OF discharging them and In
but few instances do they fall short
Large sums are annually paid IN
By the membership to assist the needy
and afflicted and the results deIiv.
cd are much better than reasonably

The Last Rose of Summer was
one of the most charming selections
that We have heard from the Gale
stage, and SIZE sang it with such
feeling and good taste as to create
a desire for a seond rendition Of the
beautiful song.
Mr.. Walters appeared to a fine
advantage and the several beautiful
tenor solos in the opera were band
led excellently by this gentleman.
His voice met the requirements of
the exacting role in fine share.
Nh. Lawton played Plunkett well.
One of the most pleasing scenes of
the opera is when the four principals
have an act to themselves, in which
they give several quartet numbers
and these we're rendered highly
satisfactorily. The young ladies
