Pythians Vote on increased Due;

Crystal Falls lodge, Knights OF
Pythias. voted last Wednesday evening
on referendum calling for an ipcrease
in the per capita tax of membership
from thirty to fifty cents, the increased
amount to be set aside to help create a
500, 900 fund by the grand lodge 10 in
vest in municipal bonds and other Sc
curlties. the proceeds to be expended
for benevolent purposes.
The proposed plan OF the grand lodge
differs widely from that OF Pythian
grand lodges in some Of the states. In
many states there is provided a home
tor members Of the order whose health
has failed and who are unable 30 make
a living. Michigan has no such home
and while the question OF providing
such has been agitated at times, the
seed was never planted and the discus
sion was on the surface only.
Instead of purchasing home and
beautiful grounds for old members, the
grand lodge of this state would create
n fund to which access might be- secur-
ed by any member who could furnish
the proper credentials. This would
eliminate much Of the red tape process
which must be gone through now to
secure entrance to Pythian home and
would be the means Of providing funds
for sick member who is still able to
make his living, but temporarily is
disabled.

AN ENGLISH BARD ON WILSON.

Among the tributes to the president
elect there are few more interesting
and probably none more appreciated
for spontaneity, sincerity and the quail
ity of the unusual than the lines of the
English poet, H. D. Rawnsley, who, in
tn Westminster Gazette, thus ad-
dresses "Dr. Woodrow Wilson, Presi-
dent:
Friend of the gray-blue eye and CHS
eled face,
When last we wandered under Rydal
fell
Who could have dreamed that power
so soon should dwell
Within your hands to guide the West
ern race!
For never had you sought for fame or
place,
Nor willing did you leave the stu
dents cell,
Who now from such a high-built cit
adel
Must speak wise counsel with schol-
ar's grace.
Lover of Wordsworth, and, as Words
worth drew
A happy warrior, through thous-
and wars,
Your soul shall triumph, in the
darkest night,
Your mind shall focus light from
all your stars,
Because you hold not gain but good in
view,
And claim a peoples heart for trut'

ELKS MAY NOT HAVE
new HOME LOCALLY
No Deal Has Been Closed for
Building

The Americas lodge of Elks may not,
after all, acquire the former Thornton
Wheatley residence, now owned by Mr..
W. T. Calhoun, to be converted into a
clubhouse, although the matter of the
purchase is still under advisement, ac-
cording to the statement of promi-
nent member yesterday.
Negotiations for the purchase of
the property were entered into last
week; and, it was said, a price salts
factory to those interested was agreed
upon. The matter was to be referred
to the lodge for confirmation. This was
done day or two since, and the sub
ject discussed at length. Opposition to
the purchase of the property was man
ifest among some of the Elks, while
others favored it highly as an advan-
tageous requirement The meeting
adjourned without any definite steps
looking to the purchase having been
taken.
The residence is valuable and de-
sirable property, either as home or
for the purpose suggested by members
of the Elks lodge, who favored the
purchase, who still hope that the deal
may be consummated.

D. Hemingway, who found a fortune
that may exceed 100000 in a heap
of scrap paper purchased for $50, has
already sorted out 10 rare stamps, val
ued at 100000 He is said to have
sold five stamps for $4,000 and is ne
gotiating with a syndicate for the sale
Of the rest of the lot for 100000 fiat,
The find overshadows that of 1895
in the basement Of the Louisville Ky,
courthouse that finally was disposed
of by an expert stamp dealer at a tri-
fle less than 100000.
The value of the Hemingway find Is
almost concentrated in one kind Of
stamp, the famous bear" stamp Of
St Louis. The value of each of these
stamps ranges from $4OO and $500 to
s., 600.
Among the old documents found are
original re QUESTIONS for supplies sign
ed by George Washington, autograph
letters by Robert Morris, Benedict Ar
mold and Anthony Wayne.
