adelphla ousdid itself%sin arrange
ments for the big meeting. 1.The city
appropriated 100000 for decoration
and Entertainment purposes. Many
Of the larger buildings were illumin-
ated and decorated at large private
expense, and it was estimated that
fully 100000 were spent in decora-
tions alone. There was a warm contest
for the election of the various officers
whose positions are principally hon
orary. The grand lodge is growing in
mum Der and several important ques-
tions, affecting the membership,
came up for discussion and the prob
abilities are that in the near future
some plan of state. representation,
rather than individual lodge repre-
senta tion will have to be made to
reduce the number of delegates at
the annual meeting to a body suit
able for working Administrative pur-
poses. A warm discussion was had in
regard to the Elk tooth EN- blem, and
finally resolutions were passed re-
questing members not to wear the
Elk to2th for a year OF until;
committee, which was appointed, de-
termine by Investigation whether the
wearing of the emblem was the cause
Of the alleged determination of-the
fourfooted Elk or not. There were
several petitions from various bodies
and states requesting the discontlnu-
ance of the emblem. The matter Of
the new Minot lodge was not acted
upon at this meeting, and the issu-
ance of the charter will be one Of
the matters for the new officers
elected to determine. Mr.. KLAUS
brought with him a beautiful and
novel collection of Elk's badges from
many parts of the United Estates.
The badges are typical of the towns
or localities where the lodge is To-
Gated Some of them are most unique
and many are quite expensive costing
from a dollar to two dollars each.
The collection will be placed in a
glass case and hung in the Ellxs..hall
as souvenir. The representatives of
the three Elks lodges of North Da-
kota al Grand Forks, Earso and INC
Jamestown attracted great deal Of
attentions in the big parade BY the
decorations of the e.carriages in which
the delegates rode. Large banners
bearing the words 'North Dakota
the bread basket Of the world" and
pennants with the names of the
towns where the lodges are located
were displayed from the carriages.

 Expected Consideration Herself.

Expected Consideration Herself.
 TOKYO, July s.--Confirmation of the report that a powerful battleship squadron would be sent to the Pacific has been generally received with calm ness, though there is some surprise in certain quarters we'll versed in diplo- matic nicetien.
 It is said that the sudden change of programme in the case of the Japa- nese training squadron last January, when it was first intended that its voyage should include San Francisco and other Pacific coast cities, was evi- dently in deference to the wishes of the Washington government made known to the Tokyo authorities in an indirect but unmistakable manner.
 The change of route was decided on only couple of days before the squad ron sailed. It was thought then that Japan acted wsiely in avoding course which might have proved injurious when a strong anti-Japanese sentiment was prevailing in San Francisco.
 Though officially stated that the dis patch of the battleships to the Pacific is not directed toward Japan, it is felt here that 1t is most inopportune when an attempt is evidently going on to im- pair the traditional friendship between Japan and the United States.

the amount of the original reward, should the entire S25,0O0 be recovered. The bank officials take the ground that no one is entitled to claim any reward for the recovery of the $54,410.
 Another interesting feature was in- jected into the case by the statement of a prominent bank official that the bulk of Runyan's original thefts ag- gregating about S16.000 and beginning June Il went in speculation in Read ing stock, and had he held on to his stock for a few hours longer he would have realized a handsome profit.
 The officials of the Windsor Trust company are determined to vigorously prosecute Mrs. Laura Carter, with whom Runyan lived since his theft week ago. They are asserting that she stole $10,O00 of the company's money from Runyan besides the $16,600 which Runyan squandered on her up to the time of his arrest upon her own information. ..
 In order to secure more information as to the past history of Mrs. Carter the Pinkerton men began an investiga- tion of her, especially as to her career in Baltimore before coming here.
 An official of the trust company said:
 "We figure it out that Runyan stole from the company prior to his final de- parture about $16,000, which he drop ped in Wall street speculation. To Mrs. Carter he gave $16,60o. about 5000 of which was given to her a little while before he skipped out for the purpose of furnishing the fiat. With $54.410 found in the fiat we have accounted for Ss6,910. On the basis that he stole $96,310 from the company there is still about S10.0O0 unaccounted for, which we believe this woman stole from Run yan while he was living at her apart ments."
