lodge No. 1 was Instituted in Omaha just
forty years ago. The late George II.

A few weeks before this lodge was organ

city in Louisiana, but this was short lived.
From the small beginning of forty years
ago. the order has grown in a marked
degree. until now there are nearly 10000
knights in the states joining Nebraska

The Omaha lodge was instituted when
the organization was less than four years
old. Justus Fl. Rathbone founded the

to the order on an old pocket Bible given

Governor Sheldon joined the lodge since

a knights of Pythias meeting in Lincoln
a short time ago the governor was invited
to deliver an address of welcome. He did
so. but when w. S. Leyda OF Falls City,

response he said that he would object to
anyone in the future delivering an address
of welcome or any other kind of an address
to the knights who was not a member Of

MONETARY COMMISSION MEETS
Genera Revision of C Irrency So ste
Not Possible at This session

= ~
Not Possible at rbis Session.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 23.-General re-
vision of the American financial system
cannot be hoped for at the oming session
OF congress but the members Of the ma
tional monetary commission expect there
will be a law passed corrective of some of
the developed evils in the administrative
features of the banking law. These proba-
bilities were evident today. when the com
mission held its first meeting preliminary
to the making of its report. Conferences
abroad were held in London, Paris and Ber-
lin, during which the members of the COM
mission were received by the most eminent
authorities on currency and the economic
topics. The interviews were taken down
geographically, but with the understand
ing that the information given should not
be made public unless approved by the per-
sons giving it. The commission, realizing
thes great Importance of being able to use
certain features of this Information, decided
to draft a series Of questions based upon
the statements, and submit these to the
foreign authorities for replies. The ques-
tons and answers will be alphabetically
stated so as to bring out actual conditions
without violating any condolences.
A subcommittee of the commission met
after the regular meeting today and began
work on the question. 1t is not intended
that the testimony taken abroad shall be
presented before the first session of the
sixty-first congress.
One of the most important matters to be
considered will be the question of bank
examination. 1t has been pointed out lately
that in the event of infractions Of bank
ing laws the comptroller Of the currency
has practically no recourse other than
closing the institutions. The effect Of such
a step is to injure many innocent persons.
Members of the commission hope to work
out some less heroic treatment.

WATER co. OFFICIALS
 BLAME PLUMBING

From the statements made at the city councils recent meeting and re. ported in yesterday mornings Re view, many have conceived the idea that it is going to cost them s16 or more month to have sewer connee. tions made in their homes. There is little doubt but that the cases brought up at the city council meet. ing were remembered largely because of the fact that they were except ionai.
 Members of the water company maintain that practically all of these cases of exorbitant water bills can be traced to defective plumbing, and that an ordinary family should not have a water bill of over S4 a month for all purposes, including the sewer. A careful inquiry among the water users, the company officials maintain, will substantiate their claims.

Of the several hundred Slavonians in this camp, a large number do not agree with ehe two hundred who met the other evening and sent cable gram to King Peter offering their ser. vices, if necessary, against the en- croachment of ria-Hungary on che states of Bosnia and Herzegoyina.
 As one prominent Slovenian express cd it yesterday:
 tai1h l see g rhotoeraph of nay- self going over to Europe to be shot by some fat Turk, or standing up in front of the machine guns of Austria. Not any for me. My happy home here in Bisbee, Arizona, is all to the mustard. and I am likely to be found in this immediate negihborhood, no matter what happens to Bosnia and Herzegovina, which states could be lost in an Arizona county, or could be dropped into the Grand Canyon with out marring the scenery to any appre- ciable extent. Of course We all love our fatherland, but most of us came here to become citizens of the United States and we will try to get along without war until this country has a scrap on it's hands,"

RANGERS FIND NEW PEOPLE
 OVER C0CH|SE
Captain Wheeler, Back From 600 Mile Trip, Tells of Many Settlements in Valleys of the County.

Capt. Harry c. Wheeler of the Rangers, has just returned from a three weeks scout in Cochise, Ora ham and Santa Cruz. In speaking of the trip Capt. Wheeer said:
 We found some little crooked work among cattle which we rectified and after a 600 mile trip through all of Cochise county and parts of Santa Cruz and Graham, returned home. We got one horse thief during this time, but upon our return found that he had broken jail and escaped with three other prisoners. That is not so bst., -owever, if ttey only leave the country.
 You would be surprised to know how many new families have settled in Cochise county in the last year or soI It seems that the whole Sulphur Springs valley has turned into a vast settlement Where a few years ago you could ride all day and pass but a few ranches, you now see upon all sides the evidence of strange hands in the form of new ranches and houses. Most of these people are from Texas and are a good. hard working, indus trious people They are intelligent,
  clean and will certainly make us good citizens. These ranches and farms extend from the other side of Wilcox to the other side of the Chiricahuas mountains, the settlement of White water being the most populous sec ton These people are generous and hospitable. and besides bringing to us their own personal energy and indus try, they have in many cases brought to the territory valuable stock
 "We ought to encourage them in aIf possibly ways. Everything which promises Arizona brighter future is of interest to us all, and we Rangers, men who see so much of the unset tied section of our state, are more prone to appreciate the advent of pioneers. We intend to aid them and protect them in every way and have so informed them wherever we have found them"

MANY HOMES
 UP TOMBSTONE
 CANYON LATER
Extension Street Railway Is Awaited-Street Commis- sioner Mccullough Ialks About Improvements.

P. J. Mccullough. Bisbee's efficient
 street supervisor, is the happiest man
 in town because the recent bond is-
 sue carried by such an overwhelming
 majority. Pat would have been con tented if the bonds had been passed by bare majority, but ne is more
 than pleased because he knows that
 the expenditure of the money for street Improvements will have prac- tically no opposition.
 Mccullough is a man who delights
 in his work. and the bigger the prop osition he tackles, the better pleased
 he is. He is therefore impatient to
 begn work on the great series of in. proyements planned by the city coun. cil. He thinks he can make that s125,-
 900 go a long way. And ne can, judg. , ing from what he has done in the past.
 One of the hardest tasks set for the
 street commissioner is the building of O. K. trail into a good road. In an interview yesterday Mccullough said
 that most of the dirt would have to be packed away on burros. The improve
 ment is one. however, which has been long needed, and one which will last for all time The road will be built in such manner that it will be little af- fected by the rains and storms. Tn fact, under the improvements as plan
 ned, it is estimated that the saving to the city from repairing roads alone
 will be an item that will go a long way toward paying for the improve ments.
 When asked about the road up Tombstone Canyon, that is as to the time in which he could have it com, pleted, Mccullough said that if he were turned loose now he could have l 1t completed by the time the rainy season begins next year. which would
 be about the 20th of June.
 The next line of growth of Bisbee's ! population, according to those who are | in position to know, is going to be up Tombstone Canyon. It is sched- ufed to begin the moment work on
 the extension of the street railway be, gins. No more desirable locations | are to be found in the camp than in | Tombstone Canyon, and 1t promises
 to become the greatest residence sec | tion of the camp. The city has three | hundred acres up Tombstone canyon 1 and at the next session of the legisla
 ture, it is understood, steps will bt
 taken to enable the city of Bisbee tC
 throw it open to home seekers. Prac
 tically the whole plat is available fol residence lots and the area is sui ticient for the building of in the neigh | borhood of 2,000 homes, with plent!
 of room for little lawn and a snal
 garden to each lot.
 When all of the improvements whlcl I. are proposed under the $125,0OO voted
 have been made the camp will havo
 new pleasures for its citizens anC
 many attractions for future prOspec tive residents
