PELICAN CHAPTER OF THE ROSE

LAST NIGHT-TREAT, 6EHNER
AND HALL TALKED.

The Maundy Thursday services at
the Masonic temple last night were
observed with great soIemnity under
the direction Of Wise Master John III.
Worst of Pelican chapter of the Rose
Croix. There was an excellent at
tendance and the ceremonies were pro-
nounced the most successful and I'M
pressive that have been held in years.
The extinguishing of the lights,
which both typifies the crucifixion to
the christian and the passover to the
Jew, was one of the main features of
the service. The candles will be re-
lighted on the morning of Easter Sun
day at $3.50 O'Clock significant Of the
resurrection Of Christ. The period
during which the lights are extinguish-
ed denotes the time that Christ spent
in the tomb.
Concluding the ceremonies talks
were given by Imperial Potentate
Treat of the Mobiles of the Mystic
Shrine Of North America, Frank D.Hal
and Rev. Frederick G. Behner of the
First Presbyterian church. Wise Mas

i LATEsT DANCES.

New York Sun: 1t rarely happens
that the decorous dancing of social di-
version does not possess a rival OF a
character not in accordance with the
conventional standards OF the ball
room. 1t has often been the case,
moreover, that the influence OF these
popular dances have penetrated far be-
yond the place of their origin. But
never in recent social history has a
dance been adopted in its entirety to
the uses of the ballroom when its be-
ginnings were as remote from such
polite centers as those Of the dances
which at present are so strongly bar
red from private entertainments.
The dances which are causing so
much objection now represent the
further departure UP to this time
from the ceremonial dancing OF pre-
vious generations. The romping cotil-
ion which shocked conventional souls
during the SOS was as stiff as a minuet
in comparison with the dances now un
der the ban of careful hostesses. The
influence of native cakewalks on
dancing both here and in Europe was
more in the direction OF informality
than any preceding diversion Of It's
kind, and was more analogous to the
prevailing steps Of the new dances Of
the day than any OF Its predecessors
In the effect 1t had on the diversions
Of society. 1t was perhaps the free
dom of the cakeWaIk's syncopated
measures which did more than any
thing else to prepare the way for the
variations which attract SO much at
tention today.
The criticised dances are descended

TAINTED JUSTICE.

Minneapolis Tribune: The whole
truth is now out in the Schiff- Brandt
case. 1t has no interest for anybody
but scandal mongers, except as it
leaves q permanent faint on the JUS
tice OF the courts.
A filthy degenerate sent a love let
ter to his employers wife and escaped
the just punishment Of his presump-
ton by threatening to lie about his
relations with her. He did lie about
them to escape excessive imprison-
ment inflicted upon him by perversion
Of justice.
That does not excuse the injustice.
To make the courts the instrument Of
private vengeance hurts every citi-
zen, no matter how little the victim
merits sympathy, or how much he de-
seres punishment. Schiff might have
killed the beast without scath Of pub
lie opinion, If he made the facts known
as fully as he and his wife told them
to the grand jury.
What Schiff did was to hire vari-
Gus tools to forge evidence Of a crime
serious enough to send Brandt to
prison for thirty years, to fool him
into pleading guilty to a supposed
minor offence on the promise of a
light sentence and then railroad him
to the ~penitentiary before he realized
what had happened.
This strikes at the foundations Of
justice among men. That any should
dare to undertake it undermines faith
In American citizenship. That 1t
should be successful { 5troys conf
dence In the American courts They
who did it are stamped as more UNI
desirable citizens than Brandt. The
court that permitted it should close
its doors for very shame.
Brandt Is free on a technicality and
few care what becomes OF him. SchifR
and his h~irelings and dupes. from
forging detective to blind judge. are
damned deeper by the wholesome pub
licity OF their deeds than an indict-
ment for conspiracy could damn them.
Justice and citizenship in New York
have received a staggering blow.

ing the observance of the passover and
pronouncing it a time when all malice
was evicted from the heart.
Rev. MIR. Behner was the second
speaker and commented on the good
resulting from the order and stated he
felt the church was a preparatory
school to the lodge. He felt there was
greater possibility for men to COM
mingle and become better acquainted
with their truer selves In a lodge which
was uplifting than in a church where
there was possibly some restraint.
Imperial Potentate Treat then was
called upon and related several ex-
periences while on his numerous trips
over the continent during the last
year. He said he felt the Shrine was
to the Masonic order what the Sunday
school picnic is to- the church, that 1t
was the smile of Masonry.
Wise Master Worst received con
g~ratulations for his work during the
evenings services. Every member Of
the order is asked to be in attendance
at the services Easter morning at $3.50
o'clock when the candles are relighted!

The Funeral OF the Maine.
Out of the harbor she sought long ago,
Harbor that welcomed, but served
not to save,
Under the clouds, bending piteous and
low,
Crept the great ship to her grave.
Not from the battles tumultuous
breath,
Not from the glory of victory's
morn:-
But from her travail of fame and Of
death,
Lo! a republic was born.
Not in the arms of this Queen of the
Wrecks,
fingered the dust Of her far-famous
dead:
Forests of palms hailed the flag on her
decks
Roses above her were spread.
Long had she waited her funeral-day,
Lying in rough state mid sunlight
or gloom:
Now the worlds plaudits each step of
the way
Followed her path to the tomb.
Full sixty fathoms we buried her low,
Meath the rough seas and the ne'er-
changing skies:
Far from molesting Of friend or of foe,
Needless OF tempests she lies.
Lies in the arms OF the ocean-waves
pressed,
With the wet sea-roses over her
spread,
While, with the owe of a nation ca
spread.
Arlington cares for her dead.

result. That there is neither grace
nor beauty in the evolutions and move
ments which these new dances . de-
mand does not rob them OF their at
traction for the young, who find them
a novel contrast to the waltz and deux

accustomed.
1t is assuredly their novelty and
perhaps the tract of audacity that they
inevitably suggest which make them
popular for the time. That there is
any enjoyment OF their suggested I'M

indulge in them is a thought that can
not be entertained. 1t may be that
these new dances are more rowdyish
than the politeness OF a ballroom al

to the ~strictest decorum. But it is
only an injury to that these
novelties cause. They have no deeper
effect when they are selected for the
enjoyment Of the young people at a

CONVERTS AND COLLECTIONS

The Wheeling Intelligencer, publish
ed at Wheeling, w. Va, gave the
above figures n the following &C
count of the closing service of Sun
day at that city:
While thousands of men, women and
children, with tear-dimmed eyes, wept
as though their hearts would break,
William Ashley Sunday, the e of
all evangelists, delivered his farewell
sermon to Wheeling last evening,
bringing to a close the greatest re-
vival in his career. The scene was
the most impressive ever witnessed in
Wheeling, and will be remembered by
those who were present until they
answer final taps. After being lauded
to the skies by the members of the
Evangelistic association, the ministers
and his thousands and thousands Of
friends who paid tributes to him, the
former star Of the baseball diamond
sat down on the platform and cried
like a little child. t
Choking with emotion, the great
audience arose to it's feet after the
sermon and, waving their handker-
chiefs until the scene represented a
picture of the great whitecaps on
the blue waters of the Atlantic dane
ing towards the s~and-covered shore,
sang God Be With You Till We Meet
Again. Still crying, the st. Paul OF the
twentieth century, with bowed head,
walked to his auto and was whisked
to his room at the Mcclure hotel. Here
Mr.. Sunday again fell on his knees
to give thanks unto God for the sue
cess Of the great campaign.
Not only We're records for the
Wheeling campaign broken on the clos
ing day, but also for the hundreds of
other similar meetings that Mr.. Sun
day has held from the Golden Gate
Of the Pacific to the ]rockbound coast
of the Atlantic. During the six
weeks of the campaign 8,437 people
professed Christ which is a record
that the great Moody never accom-
plished in this period of time.
Sunday morning but $50 "hit the
sawdust trail" and it looked very
much as though the expected 5000
mark would not be reached. However
in the afternoon, at the meeting fol
men only, 49S came forward, while
during the evening services 731 be-
came converted, bringing the grand
total for the day to 1927, which in
cludes II converts at the meeting for
women only. Showing their apprecia-
ton, Wheeling gave Mr.. Sunday ST.
900. The nail city has established q
record that will probably stand for
many ear From a city known
throughout the United States as a
sporting center and termed a wide
open town." Wheeling has become one
of the most religious cities in the uni
verse. Nc longer is the click of the
roulette wheel heard; no longer are
the dice on the Klondyke table heard
rumbling, and the familiar call Of the
faro dealer is missing. Wine rooms
have passed to memory, and all 'bed
houses have been closed.
