RANDOLPH

A meeting of the Masonic fraterni-
ties and the members of the Eastern
Star was held at the Masonic hall on
Tuesday evening, the same being called
for the purpose of considering another
hall for their use and meetings. The
hail. which they now occupy, is far
from convenient, and has an ineonven-
lent entrance and anterooms, and 1t
has been thought best to make a
change, if quarters could be procured
Phoenix lodge considered it sufficiently
to appoint a committee some time ago
who were to investigate and report at
this meeting. In addition to the incon-
venience of the hall, it is not provided
with fire escapes, required by law, and
the ones which have been installed do
not meet the conditions of the state
law. The owners of the building have
asked the tenants, or the Masonic fra
ternity, to assist in the installing OF
fire escapes, which they do not wish to
do, consequently the committee reported
on Tuesday nigfa several places which
might be purchased, which could be re-
modelled and which would make good
rooms for all the bodies. After the re-
port it was decided to organize, which
they did, and the following committee
was appointed; l.. S. Brigham, j. s.
Sherburne, DIR. q. w Scott, Miss Har-
riette Hayward and DR.. L. A. Russlow,
The chairman of this committee an
nounced that they would in the near flu
ture, have floor plan of the places
considered, and an estimate of the
cost of making over and also a plan to
finance the same and would submit the
same to the bodies at meeting to be
called as soon as possible.
