LECTURE OF CAPT. T. D. JACKSON
TO THE MASONIC LODGE OF
YOUNG MEN OF TULSA.

Dear Brethren: appreciate the
honor and pleasure It Is to me to tell
you young men that Freemasonry was
originated by honorable men with the
praiseworthy design of calling to our
remembrance the most sublime truths
in the midst of the most innocent and
social pleasures founded on Liberality,
Brotherly Love and Charity. It Is a
beautiful system of morality vailed in
allegory and illustrated by symbols.
Freemasonry comprehends within
its circle every breach Of useful
knowledge and learning and stamps
an indelible mark Of pre-em.nence on
its genuine professors which neither
chance. power nor fortune can bestow.
Masonry, my brother, gives real and
intrinsic excellency to man. and rem
dcrs him fit for the duties of society.
It strengthens the mind against the
storms of life, paves the way to peace
and promotes domestic happiness. u
ameiorates the temper and improves
the understanding. It Is company I'M
solitude and gives vivacity, variety
and energy to social conversation. In
youth il governs the passions and EN-
ploys our most active passions and in
age, when sickness, imbecility and
disease have rendered the union of
soul and body almost intolerable, ii
yields an ample fund Of comfort and
satisfaction.
All OF the ceremonies Of our order
are prefaced and terminated with
prayer because Masonry is a rel gious
institution and because we thereby
show our dependence on and our faith
and trust in God My friends, Free
masonry is a Christian Religious In
stitution.

THE PLEASANT SMILE.

He was not rich in worldly goods I;
No offices he held;
In no one field it might be said
OF him that he excelled;
He managed but to get along,
To march with rank and file,
And yet he was unique in this
He had a pleasant smile.

Colorado ExceIs In Grain Crops.

Denyer.-According to the govern.
ments April crop report, the condi.
tion OF winter wheat in Colorado is
3D. per cent better than the average
condition over the rest of the c0un-
try, while the condition of rye is 3.5
per cent better than that in the coun-
try as a whole. The figures give
Colorado's condition on wheat as 92
per cent, as against SS.S in the entire
country. Condition of rye is 93 for
Colorado, against S95 In the country.
Rye in Colorado is per cent better
than the seven-year average, but
wheat is per cent below the aver
age condition. The price for wheat
in Colorado is given at $1.15 bushel,
against $1.37 in the country. But the
wheat price in Colorado has increased
from rs cents a year ago. Corn is
the same as last year-71 cents in
Colorado, against 75.1 cents In the
country. Rye shows the greatest pro-
portionate gain in price-94 cents at
present, against Sc cents a year ago
The prices of potatoes and hay have
been reduced--54 cents against So
cents for the former, and 81 against
$3.50 for the latter.

CIVIL SERVICE BILL SIGNED.
State Court Of Appeals Bill Vetoed by
Governor Carlson.

Denyer.-Thc civil service bill, the
passage OF which involved one of the
sharpest contests that took place in
the Twentieth General Assembly, was
signed by the governor Monday. 1t
will become operative in ninety days
The law abolishes the present Civil
Service Commission and all civil
service rights and eligible lists Gre
ated under the present statute. A
new commission will be named by the
governor, the terms of the commission
to run coterminus with that of the
governors.
Governor Carlson vetoed the anti
Lindsey bills which were passed by
the Legislature. In giving his reason
for disappearing the measures the
governor said that the abolition of the
Juvenile Court is purely a Denver
matter. and Denver, under the home
rule amendment, has the means of
abolishing the court without interfer-
ence by the state.
The governor vetoed seven other
bills Monday and approved forty-three
other measures

London, April 13.-With the capture
by the Russians of Hill 992 and the
rest of the main chain of mountains
the battle Of the Carpathians. which
has lasted upward of eighty days, has
apparently come to an end over one
extensive front, for the Russians are
now moving by railways and roads
and along the rivers and streams
down the southern slopes on the
plains of Hungary. This movement,
IL 1t continues successfully. will in
the view of the Russian military au.
thorities, compel the retirement, with
little or no fighting. of the Austrians
and Germans who are still north Of the
Carpathians to the east OF Uzsok pass
and In eastern Galicia and Bukowina.
The battle which has been thus sue
cessfully conducted by the Russians,
was. from all accounts, one OF the
fiercest OF the war, and the manner
In which the Russians overcame the
difficulties of mountain fighting in
midwinter has been the subject of
praise by those who witnessed the
op perations or are acquainted with the
country traversed.
The first phase of the battle of the
Woevre also apparently has come to
an end, and interest now centers on
the next move Of General Joffre, the
French commander, in his effort to
compel the Germans to release their
hold on st. Mihiel and that part of
the plain Woevre included In their
wedge.
German submarines have again
been showing activity and, besides the
Harpalyce which, according to one
member OF her crew and the officers
OF another steamer, was torpedoed,
they have attacked since Saturday
night the British liner Wayfarer, the
French steamer Frederic Franck and
the little steamer President. The
Wayfarer reached Queenstown In q
sinking condition; the Frederic Franck
was towed into Plymouth. and the
President was still afloat when her
crew of ten left her.
