Alexander Chisolm still has a host of friends. The fact that he was convicted of an offense against the government did not cause these friends to desert him, and they fiocked to the county jail yes- terday afternoon and last night to offer words of cheer and hope to the young man whose acts have cut him off from the world for period of years.
 A large number of Chsolm's friends visited him and he held quite a recep- tion for several hours. The prisoner was cheerful and appeared pleased that he was remembered by those who have known him so long and call him friend.

ODD FELLOWS CONVENTION.
Will Convene In Jackson Beginning
Oct. 15-Au8ust Men8e VIII Be
Delegate For Local Lodge.

The Odd Fellows of Michigan are
going to convene at Jackson, this
state, for three days beginning
October 10. This will be meeting
of the subordinate lodges of Odd
Fellows alone. 1t will be RENE ndered
that the encampments held their
state convention at Calumet last
May.
The delegate to the convention
from L'Anse lodge will leave this
week for Jackson, and plan on being
away two weeks or more before
returning home. The delegate from
L'An.e lodge to Jackson will be
August Menge.
At the Jackson convention it is
understood that there will be several
hundred delegates.in in attendance
from various parts Of the state. The
Odd Fellows in this state are excep-
tionally strong and are rapidly in
creasing in number. Lodges can be
found in almost every city and
village 10 Michigan. The large mem
bership wll insure an attendance OF
delegates to the convention second
to no other organization.
Next Convention.
The Pilgrim lodge OF Odd Fellows
of Houghton, is making deter
mined canvass OF the state in an
effort to land the next convention.
A committee from this lodge has
been working hard for some months
past in an effort to getthe delegates
from the upper peninsula to support
the candidacy OF the Houghton lodge,
and it is believed that the upper
peninsula will be solid for Houghton.
The Pilgrim lodge members want
the next convention. and want 1t
badly. They are positive OF their
ability to entertain the delegates,
should they come, in manner which
will make them all remember with
pleasure the trip to the copper
country.
Should Pilgrim lodge succeed in
landing the next convention steps
will be taken to arrange for proper
entertainment OF the large number
who will visit Houghton for this
occasion.
