FORT PIERCE CITIZENS
JOIN THE MIAMI ELkS

One of the iveliest secret societies
in Miami is the lodge of Elks. The
most novel initiation took place when
three gentlemen, W. B. Cross, Gosper
S. Tucker and Thomas j. O'Brien,
came down from Fort Pierce for the
purpose of being led in pastures green
and beside still waters. These gentle
men were joined in this desire by Rod
die Rurdine, Of this city. Before going
to the hall, these recruits. by appoint
ment, met committee from the Elks
club at the San Carlos hotel. There
they were given certain instructions,
then blindfolded and then conducted to
a large wagon with an immense cattle
rack.
In this rack they were seated, the
door securely locked, when the band
ages were taken from their eyes. Their
situation was amusing to those who
were looking on. if not to them. In the
rack were bundles of hay, grain, tur-
nips and other stock food. The order
was given to move forward, and the
novel parade passed through the prin-
cipal streets of the city, proceeded by
an Elk, using large megaphone. herald
ing the approach of genuine wild west
animal show. The Elk warned the
crowds not to feed the animals peanuts
or in any way disturb their quietude.
For half an hour or more the procession
moved through the different streets,
and by the time the lodge room was
reached the cage had large lot of fol-
lowers. After reaching the lodge room
the Elks proceeded to introduce the
young Elks into the mysteries of Elk
dom, which concluded long after mid
night. 1t is said that the candidates
now know all about the Elks, and are
only waiting until some others are
