SUPREME COURT SOLVES

A Problem In Natural History as We'll
as Decides Question in Law
Tallahassee, Dec. 27.
Editor Star: The Florida supreme
court has just rendered an opinion
that the salt water fish law is con-
stitutional inasmuch as it provides for
the collection of an alien or non-resi-
dent tax Of $40 for taking oysters
from the public bars of the state. The
question arose as to whether the title
of salt water fishing would cover
oystering. By this decision the su-
preme court practically declares an
oyster a fish. Yours truly,
T. R. Hodges,

The K. of P. Bible

By request of the lodge, the Star
prints the following interesting his
tory regarding the Rathbone Bible,
on which the members of the first K.
of P. lodge took their obligation:
The Rathbone Bible was a gift to
Founder Rathbone, by his mother, on
his fifth birthday, October 20, 1874.
It's first use in connection with the
founding of the order was on the night
of Monday, February 15, 1864, in the
house No. 369 F. street, near the cor
ner of Ninth street, in the city of
Washington, d. c., when, after the
Club, of which he was a member,
Founder Rathbone, "drew forth a
small Bible" and upon it obligated
the "original members" and to whom
he read in its entirety the ritual which
he had written. This ritual was in
manuscript. The next use of the his
toric Bible was in obligating the orig
inal members of Washington Lodge,
No. 1, on Friday evening, February
19, 1864, in Temperance hall, E
street, N. W., Washington, D. C.
Fundamentally, it is true of the
Knights of Pythias as of any other
organization of its general character,
that obligations make members of
an order," and without this particular
ceremony one cannot become MEM
Der. Lodge membership is generally
and rightfully considered as a subse-
quent act. The original members of
the order of Knights of Pythias, in
cluding the founder, Justice Fl. Rath-
bone, became members of Washington
Lodge No. l. In all important acts,
tance, there is the initial step, and

Order of Knights of Pythias, which
step, four days later, was completed
in the institution of the first, the par

In the centennial year 1876, the
citizens of Philadelphia through May

ell accorded to the supreme lodge for
its eight annual session the use of In

ticket. His Democratic opponent had
the backing Of a man who was not
only the leading Democrat In the com.
munity but also had beautiful daugh-
ter. Kenyon was extremely fond of
the beautiful daughter, and that made
complications. For Kenyon feared
that II her father opposed him in poll
tics he might get the habit and oppose
him In other and more serious ways.
Moreover, the daughter was one of
the dutiful kind that shared her ia.
Tiers view that to vote anything but
tho straight Democratic ticket was
wicked. One day when Kenyon went
to call he found the daughter in tears.
She confessed reluctantly that she had
had words with her father. It seemed
that father had refused her favor

for prosecutor. With that encourage
