THE SHRlNER's BALL.

An Unqualified Success of Which
They May Well Feel chesty.
The red fez, the billed shirt front"

in evidence at Tschida hall last Tues
day evening, the occasion being the
first entertainment and grand ball
given under the auspices of Frezzan
Temple, No. 26, A. E. A. o. Mobiles
OF the Mystic Shrine. And there was
a large crowd present and "and then
some and all the pilgrims had a
very large time crossing the burning
sands, resting under the palms at
the oasis and quenching their thirst
with camel's milk.
A very able instructive and enter
tanning address was made by Deputy
Imperial Potentate, w. R. Morris, af-
ter which the caravan started across
the desert under the inspiring music
furnished by the Madam Hale Me-
Cullough orchestra.
A very unique, elaborate and beau
tiful souvenir program embossed and
printed in seven colors was present
ed to each guest.
The ladies, of which there was a
host, were. of course, beautifully and
most handsomely gowned, and the
scene as the throng swayed in the
terDsichorean advertisements was
soul-inspiring.
The grand march which was led by
the rs Mobiles present and in which
GO couples took part was feature
of the evening. ~ a',-.77-''F7.,' - .
The ladies who were connected
with the order on their husbands
side served the refreshments in the
dining room the tables being in the
form of Maltese cross.
Everybody present had good
time and it goes without saying that
whenever the Mobiles start a caravan
toward the Mecca there will be a
host Of followers.

COLLECTION OF GOLF cURlos.

Clubs by Famous Maker-old Tom
Morris Putter.
Harry B. Wood of Manchester pos
sesses probably the most valuable
collection of golf curios in the world.
His club museum is unique. There is
a fine specimen OF a left handed club,
once the property of the famous
champion Thomas Robertson, better
known at st. Andrews as ''Kill the
Cuddie," from his having accident.
ally killed donkey with q golf ball
Among other clubs collected by Mr..
Wood are several by famous maker
named Philips, whose clubs were in
great demand in the early part of the
nineteenth century. They have been
extensively initiated in consequence,
though not with more success than has
crowned the efforts of violin makers
who have sought to reproduce the
perfect form and rich tone of Stradi-
varius. Used and owned successfully
by old Tom Morris, his sons Jimmy
and young Tom is q putter which
bears all the characteristics of Philips
clubs-the gracefully modelled neck,
thin face, the rounded contour of the
head, the grain of the wood and ta-
pering shaft.
Another specimen is q fine baffy
spoon, formerly the property of Mr..
Fulton, who used to play golf in the
early days of the Manchester club,
founded in 1878. The head Is made of
apple wood and the joint is wrapped
with thick, coarse twine, the strands
OF which were rolled together and
afterward waxed There is also pur-
ter made in 1870 by David Brown, an
ex-champion and brother to Lang
