GREETING:
1t is with pleasure that we, the Juv-
emile Society No. S71 of the Grand
United Order of Odd Fellows, come
into this annual service for the first
time. Believing that since we are so
recently organized, you will wish to
become familiar with the juvenile
branch at large, and our own society
in particular, we introduce ourselves
briefly as follows: The juvenile
branch is established in pursuance Of
a proposition adopted by the Grand
Household of Ruth at St. Louis, Mo-,
in August, 1891, and reafiirmed by The
representatives to the fourth quadri-
ennial session of the Household OF
Ruth at Chicago, August, 1895, and ap-
proved by the eighth 3. NJ. C., the
forty-third general meeting at Indian
apolis, October, 1896, and all children
between the ages of and 16 years
are eligible to membership and shall
be admitted, provided their mother,
father or guardian gives consent.
The object is to provide by monthly
dues and assessments fund for The
purpose of assisting in defraying the
funeral expenses of its members, the
payment of weekly allowance during
sickness, for providing medical at
tendance for the members, and to
provide such a sum as will be re-
uured to enable each member attain
ing proper age to join any Lodge or
Household he or she may prefer in
the Grand United Order of Odd Eel
lows.
Our society, No S71 OF The G. U. O..
of O. Fellows, came into existence
through the instrumentality of Sister
Carrie Johnson of Household Of Ruth
No. 376 OF the G. q. o. of o. F., who,
in her usual apt way, on securing
copy of the general rules and regula-
tions OF juvenile society from Wis
iting sister to our city, saw at once
the great possibilities for a juvenile
in Denver Accordingly, she present
ed the matter before the Household
of Ruth No. 376, at their regular
meeting Sept. ~. 1911. and after
thorough discussion, 1t was voted to
set up juvenile. Money was set
apart for the purchase Of charter
and three supervisors were elected to
take charge. Sisters Lizzie Williams,
Mary E. Holmes, Margaret Stamps
They began at once in a most bust
ness-like manner the task OF setting
up our society, and by systematic
plan soon had 1t fully organized and
working perfectly. Too much cannot
be said in praise of their untiring eff
forts, and here we take the opportun
ity of publicly expressing our heart
felt thanks to them, to her whose
thought gave us life, and to theiJ
Household for the loving care which

SAVED FROM RUIN
Undermining Of Winchester Cath
edraI Stopped by Cement.
For Many Years the Historic Building
Has Been Cracking. Bullying and
Settling, Threatening to Col
lapse Completely.

London.-After period of eight
centuries, Winchester cathedral now
rests on solid and immovable foun-
dalton, saved from threatened ruin
Almost every day in the last few years
the movements of a diver In regula-
ton dress have been watched with Gu
rious interest as he entered or emery
ed from the water beneath the founda-
lions of the cathedral. He was at
work helping to save from ruin one OF
England's noblest historic buildings.
and the successful issue of the under
taking has been celebrated by a
thanksgiving service in the cathedral
For several years the dean and chap
ter of Winchester had been watching
ominous signs. such as cracks. bulg-
ings and settlements, sure harbingers
the interior daylight could be seen
through the cracks; the latter grew
ever wider and wider The walls on
the south side and the Norman tran
septs, unequaled for their majestic
simplicity, We're riven in all directions
The massive masonry of the Norman
builders had from the beginning
proved too ponderous for the watery,
compressible soil which forms the
foundation.
The first hole dug into the founda-
tions revealed the cause Of the whole
trouble-w ater-and acting on expert
advice, holes were dug in sections
through the top soil and chalk and far
through the peat, Then 1t was the
work of the diver in his usual diving
dress to enter the hole, remove further
layers of peat SO as to allow the water
60 rise into the cavity, and then to lay
flooring of cement to prevent the wa
ter from sinking back into the gravel
After the imprisoned water had been
removed by pumping the cavity was
filled up with brickwork in cement.
This extended from the floor laid by

been bought from the trustee OF the
previous tenant, an outside broker
whose business fell upon evil days. A
garage has been built capable of hold

Miss Ethel Mccormick who was
Mrs. Vanderbilt's companion at the
time of the marriage. still remains
close friend and is constantly at
Betchworth Some months ago. while
she was being driven in dog cart by
Mrs. Vanderbilt from Reigate the
horse bolted and upset both women
and the groom, who was with them,
out of the cart The horse was
young one from Vanderbilt's stables
at Hendon, and Manager Wilson has
since had instructions to see that
quieter horses are sent to Betchworth.

London.-Mrs. Alfred Vanderbilt,
formerly Mrs. McKim, has been max.
ing extensive alterations to the house
called The Stream" at Betchworth,
near Reigate, In Surrey, of which she
took seven years lease last fall. a
few months before her marriage to
Alfred Vanderbilt. She is much at

the house. which is a small one, nor
the grounds, are particularly attract
i've. In fact, many OF the people at
Betchworth on learning that she had
plenty of money said in amazement.
Whatever does she want to come to
a hole like this for?" When she re-
turned from her honeymoon almost
her first remark was. oh! How glad

Murder Attempt.

London.-A boys infatuation for a
young actress was described at the
Derby assizes court when Charles
Brown. aged fifteen. was charged with
shooting at seventeen-year-old
friend, Lawrence Fitchett. Counsel
for the defense said that both lads
lived at Melbourne, where young &c.
tress at theater, Nellie Payne, aged
twenty, had aroused the admiration
of the boys. Brown saw Fitehett buy

Uncle Sam Hires Blue-6looded scions
to Teach the PlebeIan CANNES

Seattle, Wash.-Lass and Major,
blue-blooded collies, who date their
ancestry back to the coming of some
Collie William the Conquerer to Bon
ME Scotland, have been hired by
Uncle Sam to educate the dogs OF
Alaska Their particular field of activ-
fly will be instructing collies, shep-
herds and husbdes Of the wild north

When the steamship st. Helens sails
from this port Lass and Major as well
as four other collies of less aristo-
cratic strain will be passengers. They
will be in charge of A. n. Evans, SUI
perintendent of the northwest district
for the department of education.
Among the places they will visit will
be st. Michael. Teller and st. Law
renee island.
At the last local bench show Lass
and Major took blue ribbons and spe-
cial prizes against the field. They
were purchased from Mrs. A. Stinson
of this city recently, and Major made
the transfer memorable by falling into
the hands of the pound master. He

lies excel every breed of dog known
to man, and Lass and Major, being
almost intelligent enough to speak
English, are expected to accomplish
wonders with the native dogs of the
north. Some doubt is expressed wheth-
er OF not they will readily learn the
Eskimo and Indian dialects of north
ern dogdom, but Mr. Lopp and Mr..
Evans think that short acquaintance
In Alaska will make them proficient
In tongues.
