iously estimated at from 100000 to 100000. It is likely that the lat ter number will be more nearly cor rect. Where and how to house this big army is question that for weeks has taxed the brains of members of the hotel committee. There are 500 hotels and apartment houses in the city and twice s.s many rooming houses of the better class, and all of these have been pressed into service to entertain the host of Bills. "The bookings have been made on a basis of four men to a room. It is reported that the dele gations from several Southern cities have arranged to sleep in Pullman cars during their stay here, while a Western lodge will convert the beautiful bah,.' :-oo,a- of the Bellevue Stratford into a camping ground where 300 cots have been placed side by side. The price paid for this privilege was $3,000. The Philadel- phia Hotel Keepers association have adopted a liberal schedule of rates, which will be strictly adhered, to and the custom of overcharging, so common at big conventions will not be tolerated. Any hotel holding ap it's guests will be boycotted by the Elks and their friends.
 The finishing touches were added today to the most lavish decorative scheme ever attempted in Philadel- phia since the great Centennial ex- position of 1876. Elk emblems and flags abound everywhere and many of the decorations are on magnifi- cent and costly scale. Not only have all the merchants and thousands of citizens in the residential districts joined in beautifying the city for the occasion, but the municipal au- thorities have taken official cogni- zance of the convention by decora- ting the city hall. At night the en- tire outline of the edifice will be shown off by red, white and blue lights, and strings of electric bulbs have been run to the top of Will liam Penn's hat to the four corners of the building. The magnificent court of honor, on Broad street from Walnut to Race, has been complet- ed and it is one of the most beau tiful structure of it's kind ever

Philadelphia, July 13.-Bent on maintaining it's reputation as the city of Brothely Love, Philadelphia opened wide it's gates in Fratenral greeting to the Elks who arrived today, as the advance guard of the thousands now speeding across the continent to take part in the conven- tion here during the coming week. By tomorrow morning, when the special trains will begin to arrive, the stream of visitors will become a food that threatens to swamp the hospitality of the city and transform Philadelphia into a camping ground for homeless, but happy Bills.
 Already period of unwented &C., tivity that presages the coming of the Knights of the Big Noise, has overtaken the city. The local Elks have wig-wagged the "23" sign to the headquarters of Morpheus and that hoary old god of somnolence haa betaken himself to New York for period of comparative calm. Philadelphia is wide awake. With "a fund of $1OO,OOO at their dispos- al, the local lodges have left noth- ing undone to amu5e and entertain the visitors.

 The grand lodge officers and com mittee chairman have established Headquarters at the Bellevue-S -Strat- ford, the city's leading hostelry, and today are busily engaged in com pleting the final arrangements for the convention. Rental for the head quarters during the week is said to be $1O,00O.
 All of the fraternal orders of the city have joined heartily in aiding the local Elks in their preparations and the Masonic bodies, Eagles, Red Men, Knights of Columbus and number of social and political clubs will keep open house all the l week.
 The gates of Girard collegs will be thrown open to the Elks and all delegates wearing an official badge will be admitted without the custo- New Jersey towns.
 Thousands of women are ex- pected among the visitors and they will not be neglected. Private and public automobiles by the hundreds nave been. donated for their free use. All feminine I.,lks will be ad- mitted free to baseball games and scores of other amusements. -.
 The Elks of Camden, N. J., the little nap" across the river from the "big sleep" are also wide awake. Their lodge room will be wide open and full of good things to eat and drink during the week and every visiting Elk will be given as sou- venir a beautiful little flask filled with 27-year-old Jersey Lightning. Special excursion will be run to Atlantic City, Trenton and other Jersey towns.
 The grand lodge will open Mon- day night at the Grand Opera House, where the guests will be welcomed by Mayor Reyburn, Gov ernor Stuart and others. Tuesdays feature will be a great free feast at Washington-Park-o ware. The great massed band pa rade of 5000 musicians will take place Wednesday, and the parade of all lodges of the order is to be held 1 Thursday morning.

A Havana HoIy Week.

Down on he Plaza an immense
crowd was gathered. 1t was nearly
dark, but in the clear twilight we could
see, hung aloft, the absurd figure or
ettigy of Judas. There was no attempt
to follow the costume of Iscariot's own
time. His effigy was attired in very
ragged position costume, with a pair
OF very long cavalry boots. straw
hat and gay necktie finished the at
tire. Imagine one of the aspostles in
! cavalry boots and spurs, with straw
! hiatt
! Slowly the uncouth figure was lifted
to the top of the scaffold, while the
crowd jeered and cursed the traitor.
Burn him! Fire him. shouted the
crowd. Torches were brought out. but
none of them could reach the figure.
At last soldier on horseback rode
under the scaffold. He carried a long
pole with lighted candle at the end.
Bravo! Bravo, caballerOw sang OUT
the excited crowd. The smoking can
die touched poor Judas. and then such
an explosion, The whole efigv was q
mass of flames. The gunpowder and
the frecrackers were exploding in all
directions. Pieces of burning cotton
fell over the crowd who yelled. cheered
and sang until the ef1gy burned out.
The next morning, Holy Thursday,
we were out early to see the grand pro-
cession of the Blessed Sacrament. as it
wound its way around the city. Those
who have only seen this solemn serv-
ice in non-Catholic countries can form
no real idea of its grandeur in a Cath
ole city. Every official. every religious
and social organization, Joined in the
ranks of devout followers of the hidden
God.
The streets were thronged. Windows
and galleries. and the fiat roofs of the
houses, which are promenade gardens
in Havana. were filled. Children gayly
dressed, ladies with their graceful black
mantillas over their heads, looked from
the verandas down into the crowded
streets.
We caught the soft strains of the mil

Thus there was once 4 bore who
presided at a banquet. When ne rose
to begin the postprandial ceremonies he

thing appropriate and wise about food
So he waved his hand over the we'll
