What Is It el nit Done at llnmn nnil Atirnmt
In MinlMI. O. K.
Among tho number of secret organization
that now enjoy n prosperous distance In Lit),
coin, nouo have a brighter future than tho
now lodge of Klks, instituted Saturday own
ing at K. of 1. hall. Twenty luemlwrs of
tho order from Omaha and abroad wero
present to assist In tho Initiatory ceremonies.
District Deputy Oraml Exnltor Ruler John
Francis of Omahn, in nn nblo and acceptable
manner conducted tho services.
At lialf-mst ten nil hands repaired to tho
Windsor hotel, where a spread of dollolotis
nulistnntlals and dainties awaited tho coming
guests. Tho banquet was ono of tho finest
that has been spread In Lincoln this season,
and wixs served In coursed with wines, vlst
Claret, Sherry and Mumm's Extra Dry. At
tho conclusion of tho feast, tho flaw of wit,
wisdom and eloquence was onjoyed for sev
eral hours, there liolng a number of very fluo
toasts rciqiomtod to by mouthers of lioth Om
aha and Lincoln lodges.
Of tho soveral oloquent toasts of tho even
ing that of Mr. O. E. Mogoon entitled "Tho
Lincoln Iodgo" received greatest amount of
applause, and wo nro permitted to print it ns
followst
"Ono of tho singular stories of ancient my.
thology was, that Jupiter took to himself a
HKmse, and finding soon afterwards that she
wai with child nnd fearing that tlio child, If
a son, would wrest his power from him, Inju
diciously swallowed his wlfo and tho unborn
Imlio. As tho time of birth drow near Jupi
ter felt great pain In his head and ordered
ono of his servitor to split his head open
with his battlo nxn; whorcuixm Mlnorva
sprang fourth from tlio brain, clad In full ar
mour. I am reminded of this fublo by tho
organluitton of tho Lincoln lodge. It dntus
its origin from this banquet boanl that has
witnessed feats of swallow lug quite as ro
markablo In their way as that of tho old
Greek God. It springs Into existence, wltn
tho stature of a mat), anil armed cap-a-pio for
tho strtiTxle of oxlstenco. Wo pride eursolvos
that s-j lusty an Infant must devclopo Into
magnificent manhood. With Its birth it in
herits tho future, with nil Its aspirations and
possibilities, with all Its repining mid disap
pointments. Its object will bo to promoto
tho comfort nnd well lielng of Its memliers,
and to share thotr bunions and sorrows, to
cultlvnto fraternity nnd good fellowship, to
arrest illwlll nnd malcontentlon, to stand lie
sldo our brothers In Hfo and by his tomb nt
death, to imrvuo together tho Journey of life
until wo reach tho littlo wnysldo Inn where
nil must sleep and whore tho only salutation
is 'good night.'
To tho Omaha lodge as nn organization nnd
to tho members as Individuals, as n bride, wo
plodgo you our troth; you nro our sponsors,
your pledges wo will redeem, and as tlmo
goes on and kindly consideration ripens into
enduring friendship, I trust wo niny often
meet to drink long draught from n loving cup
nnd Join in singing:
'And here's n hand, my trusty friend,
And glo's a hand o'thlno,
And wo'U tnk a right guid wllllo-wnught
For Auld Lang Syno.' "

Idea was a happy one, slnco It gives Lottu n
wonderfully varied outfit with which to
heighten the effect of hor madcap fun. She
makes uso of hnr opportunities, too. Blio
makes things lively from first to last, nnd

that tho absurdities of the piece aro almost
forgotten. Lottn can say moro with a twist
of hor wrist, a twitch of hor eyebrow nnd a
