MYSTIC SHRINE


Madison mobiles Of the Mystic
Shrine who attended the Shrine
meeting in Sioux Fails last evening.
returned home by incoming trains to-
day. About 100 new members Were
initiated into the mysteries of the or
"ganiaztion last evening. among the
number Harold McKinnon. of this
city. and G.. +. Funston, Of Ramona.
Tn its report of the meeting the
Sioux Falls Ar~gus-Leader publishes
the following historical sketch of the
organization:
The origin of the Mobiles of the
Mystic Shrine was established AT
Mecca. Arabia. in the year $3.50 Gin
the year OF our Lord lG0Sl The
ritual was compiled. arranged and
issued at Aleppo. Arabia, by Louis
Maraeei. the great Latin translator
Of Mahammed's Alkoran. The order
was revived and instituted al Cairo.
Egypt. in 5QqS equivalent 20 1877
This order was primarily lnst}-
tuted for the purpose of promoting
the organization and perfection OF an
Arabian and Egyptian lnquisition. or
vigilance committee, 20 dispense JUS
tice and execute punishments upon
criminals whom The tardy law did
not reach 10 the measure of their
crime.
Being designed TO embrace the
entire pale OF the law. and composed
of the sterling men Of the day, who
would fearlessly try. judge and. If
convicted. execute the criminal with
in the hour, leaving no trace o. their
action behind, the organization was
perfected and carried into execution
with startling results.
Temples We're instituted through
out Europe some years later. Al
though possessing all the powers and
material or the inquisition. 1T re
quired. they still continue 10 thrive
as charitable and social o%rganiza-
tions.
"In 1871 the ritual was brought
to America by a representative, with
instructions to place it only IN the
hands of high grade Masons, owing.
it is stated, 10 the fact that Masons
were regarded as the choice Of the
best men of the land. and having al
ready passed the ordeal of Qhltsa-
ton.
"Obeying this Instruction. the rit-
ual was placed in the hands Of Dr..
Walter NJ. Fleming, 33d degree, and
eminent commander Of Columbian
commandery No. i, X. IT,, Of New
York city, who in conjunction with
William j. Florence. 2Sd degree,
previously created a noble of the or
der of Aleppo, was given absolute
authority in America"

PUBLIC WANTS ITS OWN
SCREENS OPENED IN GREER
PEOPLE OBJECT TO NOT
HAVING FISH.

Since the announcement that the
department of game and fish are
about to attempt the SEEMING of the
suckers from the lake and creek.
public sentiment against the pro
ceeding has run moderately high in
Madison. The people. who are own
ers of the public domain. can not
understand why the commission
should allow a public fisher to fish
by wholesale for profit 10 the eXelu-
sion of the natives.
Expressed sentiment ran so high
this morning that Sheriff Keller
brought Havinghorst & Andrews. the
fishermen. and II. q. Hawley. deputy
state game warden, 10 the office Of
Deputy States Attorney Farmer to
see what might be done to remove
the cause for public agitation. IT
was admitted that the screens at the
mouth Of the creek would obstruct
the passage of fish, and it was also
shown that there are no fish running
i'm the creek. The conclusion lis that
the screen and trap keep them below
the point. and hat men Of Madison
can catch fish only by going to or
below the point at which the fisher
men are operating. The attorney
rendered an opinion that the opera
tions were not in accordance with
the statutes. and that there must be
way through the traps for the pas
sage Of the fish. The men at the
traps agreed to leave a third of the
way open. thus making it possible for
fish TO come up the creek for the
use of local fishermen.
Learning that the commission
were about to seine the suckers from
the creek. Sheriff Keller wrote to
Game Warden II s. Hedriek for per
mission to use dip nets for the fish
Mr.. Hedrick referred the request TO
Attorney General G. c.. Caldwell who
gave the opinion that such a permits
sion would be in discrimination
against other parts of the state.
where such a thing could not be
done. Since then the taking of fish
and the stopping of their natural run
have been criticised by local sports
men. Notwithstanding the declaration
by the fish commission that there
We're far too many fish i'm the creek
and lake. and that il would be better
TO have them taken out.
Since the informal talk With tho
states attorney persons wanting fish
for their own use may take nets or
10 the creek. and. i'm the
presence Of the warden. Mr.. /. G
Hawley. get all the fish they need
The commercial fishermen have
taken quantities of fish from the
creek. though the run has scarcely
begun. When the run begins, they
say. even their nets and screens will
not stop them from coming up the
stream.

plications for the formation of a

idea.
The civic league have listed the va
cant lots of Madison, with a view to
giving them to somebody who will
cultivate them. More than thirty
lots have thus far been listed. and
calls for them by persons who desire
to get land for small garden cultiya-
ton have thus far outnumbered the
supply.
More than $50 acres of vacant lots
were found BY the high school class
