THY Love To Me Was Wonder
full" Samuel 1:2G, was Mr..
Cranes text. His sermon in part
was as follows:
In the year 1864, when the storm
of the rebellion was sweeping over
this land of ours-when brother was
at war with brother, over the black
face, brother of them both-when II
seemed that fratricide was destined
to sweep away all the affections be-
tween man and man, God chose to
swing alongside of the righteous pull
pit and press this fratcrnal society,
| that these allied forces might re-
kindle in the hearts of men the love
which they ought to bear one toward
the other. On February 10 of that
] year, Justus II. Rathbone OF Wash
ington, ID. c., together with some five
or six other men, brought into exist
ence the organization known as the
Knights of Pythias, which withstood
the thunderings of rebellion, and the
| hail and fire of awful war, and has
grown with the years until It stands
today, with more than eight hundred
thousand knighted men to declare It's
eternal truths.
OF the many lodges now operating
our fair city boasts of three, aggre
eating more than three hundred anC
fifty members, together with a lodg,
of Uniform Rank. and also Il lodg,
composed of Pythian Sisters. Repre-
sentatives from these several lodge
have met with us here tonight, II
keeping with a time-honored custom
of the order, to worship the God W,
love. We welcome you, my friends
and as together we study the splen
did principles of your order, we. Xix,
Dionysius of old, would fain be ad
mitted to your mystic circles.
| Several features of the organiza
ton, aside from its cardinal princi
pies, go to commend its eXistenc
and worth in the world, namely: II
perfect government, its strict dlsci
pline, and its practical workings.
must coniinc my remarks, however
and that briefly, to the cardinal prin
ciples of the Order--friendship, be

THOUSANDS
OF ACRES OF
new BREAKING

Never before in the history of
Burleigh county has such elaborate
preparations been made for turning
over the virgin soil as are under
way. Nearly every week for the
past month has seen the arrival of
immense steam traction engines with
sets of breaking plows, consigned to
individuals, and it has been apparent
that there would be something doing
in the breaking line this spring and
summer.
A Driscoll man lately received a
mammoth steam blowing outfit
which is guaranteed to turn over %
acres day and seed the land to flax
| at the same time. No such implement
has ever been in this neighborhood
before and it is doubtful if anywhere
else. He already has contracts
which will keep his outfit going,
breaking and seeding, until late in
June.
Alonzo Thompson of Denver, Col,
z who has many thousands Of acres of
land in this county, has arrived in
the city for the purpose of having
several thousand acres of land brok-
en- and seeded to flax, but so great
has been the demand on the twenty
or thirty steam blowing outfits al
ready in the field that it is doubtful
If he will be able to all he de-
sires in this line.
In an interview with real estate
man today he said that he believed
that from six or seven thousand acres
of land would be broken this fall by
non-residents who had just awakened
to the fact that while their land was
increasing in value they might just
as we'll make several dollars an acre
by seeding it to flax on the break
ing adding just that much more val.
ue to the land and making it more
readily salable to those who desired
to commence farming operations
without waiting for the land to BIZ
broken.
All over the Missouri Slope the
same tale may be told in greatel
or less degree. The land was never
in better crop condition and there il
a spirit of hopefulness because o
the bright prospects.
