cation.

committee, under the Craftsmanship ri
Ray Hoefler, functioned most eXpertly
during all the convention. All were
taken care of at the city hotels pri-
vate homes, resorts, and cabin resorts
in the vicinity.
In speaking to several delegates, they
informed the Miner reporter that Ely
had certainly opened their eyes in the
completeness of the arrangements made
for their comfort and that while they
had arrived with some miSgivings as to
the ability of a city of 5000 inhabitants
to appropriately house and care TO- an
influx of several thousand people, their
minds had been set at rest and it was
their firm belief that communities of
this size had it all over the large cities
in entertainment and hospitality.
During the night of Thursday and
early Friday morning, more and more
visitors arrived. The South st. Paul
contingent with their band arrived at
daylight Friday morning and at once
staged a parade through the principal
streets of the city. The city at once
came to life in a big way and from
then on things happened in rapid sue
ceSSion.
Ten o'clock saw the drill teams at
work at the Odd Fellows Hall in the
ritualistic contest. The mems contest
was won by Duluth Lodge No. sos. In
ternational Falls Lodge No. $50 won
the ladies' team contest. This occupied
the attention of the delegates up 10
noon while the visitors accompanying
them paraded about the streets behind
the st. Paul band, the Two Harbors and
Ely German bands.
Twelve o'clock saw luncheon con-
ference for dictators, secretaries and
delegates and luncheon conference for
senior regents, recorders and women
delegates at the Forest hotel. Paul P.
Schmitz, international director of en-
rollment and membership, addressed the
gathering.
The business session OF Friday oc-
cupied the attention of the delegates
for a matter of three hours during
which many important matters were
discussed At this session it was voted
to create a separate state organization
for womens lodges, giving women the
opportunity to conduct their own Or
ganization and the opportunity of elect
ing set of officers. Heretofore the
auxiliary organization has been con-

the school band of Chisholm of "a

years; Chisholm ladies carrying a re-
cumbent flag ahead of the Chisholm
lodge; the American Legion Auxiliary
float honoring the unknown soldier,
with Wayne Brownell as uniformed
guard, and the Ely Drum and Bugle
Corps. The line was followed by adj
vertiSing cars of local merchants and
other cars carrying citizens unable to
walk in the parade.
After parading the principal streets,
the line returned to the Memorial field
where the drill teams and the drum
and bugle corps contested for honors.
Three thousand people witnessed the
drills from the grandstand the bank
near the school and from several hun
dred cars surrounding the field.
The Minneapolis Moose ladies drill
team and the International Falls mems
team performed their intricate revolu-
tons under the flood lights. The Min
neapoliS team were accompanied by the
st. Paul band while the International
Falls team performed without music.
The ladies won on points, their several
formations being gone through without
hitch. The Falls had several new
men in the team recruited at the last
minute owing to the inability of regu-
] lars to attend.

Early Sunday morning rain was fall
ing and the committee called off the
picnic. The rain kept up until two
O'Clock when the sun came out and real
picnic weather resulted for the balance
of the day.
The picnic was not called off until
telephone messages from Duluth and
intermediate points stated that rain was
falling and that outdoor events in these
places had been stricken. Arrange
ments for the picnic had been COM
pleted in every detail and the rain
spoiled a chance for most enjoyable
event.
The morning rain stampeded the
outside guests and by noon the laSger
part had left the city vowing that all
had enjoyed themselves and voting the
Ely Moose and citizens royal enter

1886 Tourist Traffic Heavy.

Tourists are bringing more money
into Minnesota this year than in any
previous year, according to all reports.
The amount that will be spent by
visitors in the state in 1896 is estimated
all the way from $1OO,OO0,0OO to sl70,-
100000.
Smooth, all-weather concrete high
ways make it possible for people TO
come to the Ten Thousand Lakes very
quickly when the hot summer weather
strikes the states south of us, says a
recent cement bulletin. The towns on
the paved routes seem to get the lions
share of the travel. The bad roads of
last spring and the big tourist traffic
this summer have intensified the de-
mand for concrete on routes that are
not already paved.

Oldest Church in New
World Is Near Collapse

San Juan, Porto Rico.-Porta
Coeli (Gate of Heaven) church,
Americas oldest existing Christian
edifice, at San German, in the
western part Of this island, is
threatened with ruin. Recent heavy
rains caused the collapse Of a
large section of the southern wall
in the courtyard surrounding the
aged temple.
A general inspection following
the incident disclosed that the en-
tire building is badly damaged, and
church and civic authorities are
taking immediate steps toward con-
servation of the historical relic by
thorough reconstruction.
The situation will be presented at
the next session of the insular
legislature in February, and it
is also planned to interest the
Knights of Columbus and other na-
tional Catholic bodies in helping to
preserve this shrine.
Porta Coeli, or SantO Domingo
church, was constructed in 1885 by
the Dominican Fathers. 1t was the
second place of worship erected
in the new continent, the first hav-
ing been st. John the Baptist church
at Caparra, the first town built in
Porto Rico, in 1911 and no longer
standing.
