KEoTA LOSES BISON
Singmastcr Buffalo and Elk Herds
SoId-Long Attractive Feature Of
Mapehurst Ranch.

Keota, March 15-Keota can no
longer point with pride to the zoologi-
cal park at Maplehurst, the Singmas-
ter ranch The herd of twenty
buffalo and eighteen elk have long
been one of the sights of special in
terest in this vicinity. Groups of school
children from all parts of Keokuk
county have visited the ranch to see
the animals and they have attracted
automobile parties from various points
in the eastern part of the state.
The animals were the private prop
erty Of G. F. Singmaster, senior mem
Der Of the firm Of Singmaster & Sons,
importers and breeders of fine horses
Mr. SinSmaster celebrated his S0th
birthday anniversary on Feb. 20 and
he has decided that he is too old to
be burdened with the care of the ami
mails. The fact that the eighty acres
occupied by the buffalo and elk for
grazing purposes is worth 5000. per
acre and the value of the animals
made them an expensive luxury.
Last fall Howard Eaton; Of Wolf.
Wyo.. negotiated with Mr.. Sfngmaster
for the purchase of the buffalo but the
transfer did not materialize Recently
Mr.. Eaton and the Horns geological
arena of Kansas City, have taken up
the matter with Mr.. Singmaster and
he has sold both herds to them. They
have resold the elk to Warren Leach,
of Rushville. Ill, who in turn has sold
the animals to the state of West vir-
ginia to be placed in the state park
Mr.. Leach is here experimenting the
loading of the elk into stock car for
their long journey.
The buffalo will not be removed at
present. but will be taken away within
ninety days. The first of the elk were
brought to Keota fifteen years ago by
the livery man. E. G. Coffman and
Lee Stewart. There were four of them
and they were broken to harness.

to Professionalism.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, March 15.-Members of
the grand lodge A. Q. U. W. in session
in Des Moines. anticipate that the
grand lodge will have no trouble what
ever in accepting and adopting nearly
all the propositions that have hccn put
up to it by Grand Master Workman
Evans The session of the grand lodge
these questions.
Perhaps the most important OF the
propositions is that of charging the
jurisdiction Of the grand lodge so as to
take in some other states where grand
lodges have not been organized. Colo
RADIO, for instance, has no grand lodge,
and it is proposed that Iowa shall &C.
cept members from that and other
states. If this action is taken it will
mean a great enlargement of the mem
bership of the order in Iowa.
Another proposal is to admit women
to membership on terms substantially
the same as the men. This is some
thing that has been much agitated and
is generally favored by the members.
At the grand lodge meeting at Wa
terloo last year it was decided that
the order should go to the level prem
ium" basis instead of the graded pay
ments; and now it is also proposed
that the age limit for membership be
extended so that instead Of member
ship ceasing at 80 they can take in
those at So years. The minimum will
also be lowered to 16 years.
Other proposals before the grand
lodge all of which are meeting with
favor, are the admission of -bene-
fetal or social members. reinsurance
of members from other lodges. to en-
large the duties of the board Of direc-
tors, amendment Of the law as to sick
benefits. and to provide for issuance
of $4,000 policies on the level rate
plan.
Another plan suggested is that there
shall be located in Des Moines local
lodge that will be catch all for MEM
hers, into which may be transferred
members from defunct lodges and
floating members.
