TWO ALGERINEs HoNoReo.

At the meeting of the Grand Lodge
Benevolent Knights of America which
met in Gretna last week, two of our
prominent citizens, members of this
Order, were honored in having been
chosen to prominent offices of this or
ganization.
Hon. NJ. S. Mahoney, who has al
ways been foremost in lending his
hand toward the upbuilding of Algiers
and is in all things where good can
be accomplished, was greatly honored
by having been elected as Grand
Counsellor-at-Law for the State of
Louisiana for this organization. This
is quite compliment to Mr.. Mahoney,
but he deserves the recognition which
has been given him through this AS
ISOLATION for which he has worked so
faithfully since he has been member.
Mr. Mahoney, besides being a member
of the B. X. of A. is also a member of
the following organizations: Knights
of Columbus, Elks, Woodmen of the
World, Hibernians, Public School ALI
ance, Commercial Law League of Am
erica and the Business Mems League.
Mr.. Mahoney was 1lso prominently
connected with the sAlgiers Improve
ment Association and did a great deal
of good for our side. of the river. In
his selection the organization has a
competent man WIG will look after
their welfare.
Mr.. F. B. Moore, jwho was elected
Grand Custodian, is ialso we'll known
on this side of the river, where he
stands high as a citizen. Mr.. Moore
is also prominently connected with
fraternal orders, is a member of the
German Benevolent Association and
of the Opelousas Avenue Commission,
and has always taken an active part
in politics. Their many friends con-
graduate the Order in the selection of
two of our Algerines to hold such i'm
portant offices.
The B. K. of A is the only fraternal
insurance Order chartered under the
laws of Louisiana, which took place
in 1908. 1t then had a total member
ship of 500. At the close of the year
1910, it had enrolled 1900 members
and has gained some since then. 1t
is growing very rapidly and its finances
are in excellent condition. There are
twelve lodges in New Orleans and a
number in the various parishes. Much
of the success of the Order is due to
the effort of Mr.. Zeb. Hellman, the ef-
ficient, active and hard working Grand
Secretary, and to DR.. E. A. Jugelwicz,
Grand Medical Examiner. The Ivy
Leaf Lodge No. 153 of Algiers has a
total membership in good standing of
124 and is in a ourishing condition.
The main Office of the Order is in
the Hibernia building.

stead, south of town where he lived be-
fore going to Minnesota. He is enjoy
ing fairly good health.

ing the Reconstructed country here
