Fortunes for Fishermen.

The news that a Fleetwood (Eng-
land) fisher lad has drawn $155 as his
share Of the value of fortnights
catch need occasion no surprise. Ow-
ing to the war, the North sea has had
a rest which nothing else could have
given it, and it now swarms with
splendid fish. The result Is seen In
phenomenal catches. A few weeks ago
an Aberdeen trawler's cargo sold for
$4,000, and there were scores OF In
stances where over $1,000 was realized
under similar circumstances. Such
catches mean that each member OF the
crew receives $3.50 to $500, in addi'
ton to what they make by the sale
of the livers and roes from the gutted
| fish.

fact that it has not changed its form

long ago he brought out a new type
of violin that met with instant sue

DIR. DAVIS SURRENDERS.

TOPEKA, KAS., July 22.-Dr. D.
H. Davis, Negro sought by authori-
ties of Longview, Texas, in connec-
ton with the recent ace rioting
there, appeared before Governor H.
j. Allen today and offered to surren-
der. He was accompanied by Nick
Childs, Topeka Negro editor and pres
ident of the American Negro Defense
Society, and others.
In a dramatic Commute interview,
DR.. Davis, who says he is graduate
of Harvard college, told how he es-
capped, together with his family, from
mob in Longview in an automobile
to Kansas. He said Texas authori-
ties have placed a $500 bounty on
his head.
Governor Allen said he had no
power to accept the Negro fugitive,
but recommended that he turn him
self over to the sheriff of Shawnee
county. This DR.. Davis proceeded to
do. He says he will contest extradi-
tion.
Dr. Davis told Allen that he shot
four white men, members of party
which came to his residence to whip
his niece. He said bloodhounds were
put on his trail and he evaded them
by wading across river. At South
Coffeyville, Davis asserted he was
placed under arrest, put up $500
cash bond and proceeded into Kansas.

MASONIC NOTES.

BY r. T. Coles, Chairman Committee
on oFreign Correspondence, Missouri
Jurisdiction.
On last Sunday at 4 p. m. We had
the pleasure for the first time of at.
tending the Past Masters Council at
Masonic Temple. 1t has been a long
time since We spent such a pleasant
hour where so much interest was man.
ifested in the subjects being discuss
ed. Prompt to meet and to adjourn
at the set time.
Say boys! it was good to be there.
Many new names were added to the
already large membership.
The object of the Council is to pro-
mote the general welfare of the Ma
sonic family and to discuss such ques-
tions of masonic interest that will
have a tendency to elevate and bring
about a condition that will show to
our brethren and the world that the
lessons of Truth and Right have not
been taught in vain, but that oud daily
lives and actions are influenced by
the motive of doing right because it
is the only right thing to do, then in
deed will each OF us who are so in
fluenced, make of Freemasonry, what
it is really intended it should be "a
mighty and beneficent force for the in
struction and enlightenment of man
iknd.
The subjects under discussion by
the Council are A better plan for
operating our Relief Department A
better system for the Burial Depart
ment. To make the Masonic Home
more adequate. To regulate the ad-
mission of members to the fraternity
to keep bad characters and all forms
of mutilation out. To regulate our
financial system and a general recon.
struction that will teach obedience to
the sublime precepts of masonry and
not let the words of its ritual be mere
idle mummeries, which shall at it's
conclusion give us the right to wear
a char m or badge that shall proclaim
us as Freemasons of this or that de-
gree only to have 1t found later both
by our brethren and the world at
large, that we are unworthy masons,
and what is far worse, unworthy men.
II is hoped that every past master,
who is interested in the program of
the Council, will become a member
and help in this work of uplift. You
are needed
We should seek to make ourselves
known to the outside world, as ma
sons. Why live in fear that somebody
will know what masonry stands for?
A good thing is not to be concealed
from the world.
A masonic sign or grip is a good
way to make yourself known to an
other Maon if you want to prove that
you belong to the fraternity, but there
