Twenty, count 'em, twenty tame in
dividuals possessed of all the know
ledge of thirty-second degree Masons,
but not further, entered the Armory
Lass night as the class of novices due
for a pilgrimage over the burning
sands of Kaaba Temple, Ancient Ar
hbic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine
to Mecca in the Oasis of Davenport.
Right at this period, 1t should be men
toned that they went all the way and
then some. They were guided, push
ed, showed, hurried and likewise guild
ed by the painstaking Illustrious Pot
entate Sam T. White, he of the excess
bulk. And with him were thirty-three
Mobiles, who constituted the Arab pa
troll What the Arab patrol left I'M
done to the novices, the sands of the
desert and the anti-water camels sup
piled, and let it again be mentioned
that huff was done, said and enacted
to fully convince the aforesaid twenty
strangers that they were not altogeth-
er in the hands Of friends, but near
friends. Later in the evening, while
thoroughly enjoying the cafetaria
luncheon of mammoth proportions and
witnessing with keen delight the
clever antics of the Garrick theater
performers, who were especially en-
gagged to give session of midnight
vaudeville, the new Shriners were Civ
en- ample demonstrations that the de-
mons of an hour or SO before were
none other than the closest and most
sincere friends and brothers.
That the ceremonial session Of
Kaaba Temple last night was one Of
the most successful ever held in the
long history of the oasis of Davenport
was the verdict of every Red Fee
wearer who was present. While the
rain of the afternoon and evening nip
ped in the bad one Of the most elabor
ately planned street pageants, the Wis
itors did not lack for amusement, and
the reception of the candidates in the
evening made UP for all the joy and
display of Shrinedom the parade would
have afforded.
Ottumwa was declared by all to be
the one best bet for a Shrine cere-
monial, and when the sma' hours Of
this morning approached and adieu
was the order, the Ottumwa Shriners
were feelingly congratulated upon the
success of the day and given a gooi-
bye that tinged with the desire to once
more visit this city on a similar mis-
sion.

.ARTES|AN FLOW
FOUND At ATHENA
WELL DRIVERS STRUCK
SPOUTING WATER SATURDAY
Flow at Present not Sufficient and
Drilling Is Being Continued-West
& Miller Confident of Finding Ample
Supply-Now Down 400 Feet.
Especial Correspondence,

Athena, Ore, Aug. 30.-At a depth
of 400 feet artesiGn water has been
struck on the property OF the Athena
land and trust company adjoining
Athena and II. is now known that
Athena's search for arteslan water will
be successful.
It was late Saturday afternoon that
West e. Miller. who are sinking the
well first struck an artesian flow
However the flow at this time is not
sufficient for the needs and so the
boring is being continued. That water
will be found and In ample quantities
is the firm belief of Mr.. West who is
from La Grande and has had consid-
cradle experience sinking for arteslan
water.
How much deeper the well will have
to be dug in order to secure the need
ed amount OF water cannot be told.
According to the drillers they would
not be surprised to find more water
within a few feet. yet say they may
have to go 100 feet deeper.
The site OF the artesian well Is on
the old Ben ogle place adjoining
Athena and which was recently pur-
chased by a local company which is
now selling the land for colinization
purposes.
