flflft \ % k ThQ Coming" Insurance Order.
P , ll ' The large attendance at the public
K * , - > bx meeting of the order of the Star of Jupi-
_ K f kis ter in tle ° Pera uouse' Monday evening ,
_ KW shows a growing interest in this promis-
B\ } ' } i g beneficiary order , whose continued
V S k' and increased success means great things
HHA - M for our city.
m A short musicnl and literary pro-
Mi gramme preceded the talk of the even-
! J | ing by the state organizer , F. O. Fritz.
| | This feature of the evening opened with
II a piano solo by Mrs. VV. B. Mills , Miss
ti Ethel Barnett following with a recita
ls tion. Miss Stella Norvul sang a solo , accompanying -
[ \ companying herself on the guitar. J. F.
[ , ' / Forbes told about the boy who was as
good as he could be just before Christ-
% mas. The programme closing with a
P \v r cornet solo by S. C. Beach , who was ac-
B ' l/ compauied by Mrs. W. B. Mills on the
piano. The entire programme wtfs great-
j ' \y enjoyed and warmly applauded.
1 ) Mr. Fritz was then introduced and
ig
/ made a strong plea for mutual beneficiary -
\ \ iary insurance , and especially for the
_ _ ; ' order of the Star of Jupiter , whose plan. .
of life insurance he regards as the finest
S aud most equitable in existence. He
\l \ spoke at length upon the necessity of
i \ protecting the home against death , and
I showed that the plan of the local order
v ' | is the cheapest and most promising
_ k 'I among the mutual orders. He urged
H i \ upon business men and citizens gener-
H I ally the importance of the largest suc-
B % \ cess of the order ; that it means more
H # V than they now seem to appreciate. Slips
H * \ ° PaPer were circulated through the au-
Hf 1 f dience and signatures were secured for
HA j membership from aoout thirty individ-
_ _ _ _ jT \ uals.
B § % There is no doubt of the ultimate large
H % \f \ growth of the order , and we bespeak for
B | j | it the cooperation of all our people.

J. A. Wilcox rescued a tom-cat from

thetic particulars , under the impression
fliat the imprisoned one was a little

and poured forth his sadness and loneli
ness in most heartrendingly pathetic
tones , soon enlisting the sympathies of
a large and tender-hearted compan3' of
citizens. Mr. Wilcox headed the rescue
party. Securing the key to the cellar
theirlabor of love commenced , tommy
all the while calling to his lady love in
accents all too tender. Spurred on by
the pitiful cries , the rescuers rushed into
the cellar and would have enfolded the
lost and injured child in their arms.
The broad cloak of charity is drawn
over the rest of the scene. Tommy was
of the vintage of the year one , devoid of
tail , sans ears and altogether unlovely.

D. McClain of Coleman precinct , passed
