has revived talk Of this enterprise. Mr..
Hanrahan passed through Appleton
Junction Ell route to Wausau, where
he was to confer with number of pa

early close of the deal, which has now
been pending about sixteen months:

Memphis Reception.

District Deputy H. t. Robinson
was accorded very cordial and
generous reception by the Memphis
Elks on the occasion of his official
visit to that lodge last week. Ii is
fact that Mr.. Robinson's appoint
ment as District Deputy came prih-
cipally through the efforts of the
Jackson and home lodges and the
anticipations of his visit to Mem
phis were not altogether assuring.
But his arrival and visit in Mem
phis soon changed the aspect Of
these affairs The prePP5;ii I'd d ttious ana
reception OF Mr.. Robinson by the
officers and members of the Mem
phls lodge in their magnificent new
home was all that could be desired
and much more. The attendance
was large, among the number be-
ing Rev. Hugh Spencer Williams
and Mr.. Matthews, the latter gen.
eral insurance agent, bot h well
known by number of citizens
here. Mr.. Robinson addressed the
lodge in his usual style, unfolding
the principles of Elkdom and de-
Tending the purposes of the order
against undue and unjust criticism.
He presented the Importance of the
obligations and the duties of indi-
vidual members in practical way
and upon lines not often given suf-
fcient attention by fraternal speak
ers. The address was received with
unanimous and hearty approval.
The feeling toward the District
Deputy and his work was attested
in more substantial manner by
the presentation of large life
size painting, a work of the finest
character, and valued more because
of the sentiment prompting the gift.
Upon the adjournment of the
meeting Mr.. Robinson was pressed
to accept the invitation of the lodge
to supper at the Gayoso, which COM
pleted token unlimited in its ap-
of his visit to Memphis
and of his work as District Deputy.
