to again meet with their brethren
During this week every organization
in both the Scottish and York rites,
as well as the allied orders presented
some or all Of their degrees and fire,
4uently two and three different bodies
were at work at the same time in
different parts Of the temple.
The event was such a success thai
s3ecial trains were run from Abar-

and Minneapolis, as well as many
coming here on the regular trains
and thousands Of brethren driving in.
to Fargo in their automobiles. 1t is
estimated that On one day there was
$4,000 visitors.

a success that much attention was a.

From one end Of the country to the
other Fargo is known as Masonic
headquarters, and the city is Mecca
drawing Mas events and brethren
Of the order to this well known city
on the Red. This probably arises
from the fact that all the various de-
grees are conferred in this city, both
in the York or American Rite and
the Scottish Rite, also because Of tle
prominence OF many of the brethren,
like J. y. Treat, past imperial poten.
tate for the Shrine for North Amer
lea, and H. G.. Plumley, the inspector
general of the Scottish Rite for the
Southern Jurisdiction of the United
States; another reason is tie enths-
lam Of the membership at large in
this great fraternal organization.
The Founding.
Way back in 1872 the Blue lodge
was first established, and the other
bodies soon followed. Among the
York rite organizations are the Royal
Arch Chapter, the Council of Royal
and Select Masters and the Comman-
dery of Knights Of Templar.
The Scottish Rite embraces all the
bodies to and including the Consistory,
and frequently the thirty-third degree
is also presented at Fargo. by direc-
ton of the supreme council.
Among the auxiliary organizations
may be mentioned the Order of tlc
Eastern Star and the Shrine, which
includes the MOBILES OF the ancient
Arabic order so well known the coun-
try over which latter society has apt
ly been designated as the playground
OF Masonry"
A Magnificent Temple.
All these bodies meet in the Mason.

Warned Not to Return.

All of the women were forced from the building and warned not to try to come back. They were told they would be arrested if they did so. A cordon of uniformed officers sur rounded the headquarters, and when the detectives had finished their search Supt. Quinn locked the offices and left plain clothes men on guard within and without
 The women ejected collected on the sidewalk outside the police station and angrily denounced the officers. They declared that the rad was un. warranted and that the home office had no authority for such action. The women were quickly surrounded by crowd of several thousand persons, some of whom cheered and the rest jeered. The taunts of the throng, some of which were none too gentle, enraged the evicted militants the more, and some of the women openly threatened that before sundown there would be "doings" that would make Scotland Yard sit up and take notice.
