Ancient Order ttt Unllril Workmen.
There has been far more activity dls
plnyed In the local circles of the Anclen

committee peniiincntly organized In the new
Odd Fellows' temple on last Tucmlay even-
Ing. This body has the entertainment or
the delegates In charge. It Is composed o :
representative from nil the subordlnnU
lodges In this city and South Omahn. A
goodly number of these were In attendance ; .
The organization was effected by the election
of D. M. Havurly ns chairman and H. E.
Yocum as secretary.
The committee practically laid out all Its
plans for nrrnngomcnt nnd entertainment ,
although , of course , the details were not
entered Into. The ground work , ao to speak ,
wns mapped out. The question of expense
for entertainment nnd mcaca for raiding tin
money from the membership of the camps
wan dUctirscd among other things. Much of
the work was parceled out among the com
mltlres which were appointed.
The second important meeting of the
week occurred last Wednesday night , when
the Post Master Workmen's nsooslatloii
gathered together. There wcro some fifty of
the members lu attendance. Grand Recorder
George II. Harhcr of Grand Island was also
present. The meeting decided to make some
recommendations to the next grand lodge
which are decidedly radical chnnges from
the existing conditions.
Among other things the report recommendo
tin ) abolishment of
all the standing com-
mlttcca of the body. Under the present con
stitution there nro n number In exlatcnec
the meat Important of which nro the com
mittee on law and that on finance. It Ic
proposed to make the board of lrnstpr r
substitute for the latter. Each member will
bo placed under bonds and the body will be
placed Insole charge of the financial Inter
ests of the state Jurisdiction ,
Another proposed change that will be
recommended Is the abolishment of the ofllce
of the grand lecturer. Hta present duties , oi >
defined by the constitution , will bo turned
over to the grand master workman nod his
deputies.
All iheee changes arc In the Interest of
economy. The grand lecturer is paid a
salary ana expenses. The members of the
alandlng committees are paid a per diem
rate for the time they put In on work for
the order , and they also receive mileage
while engaged In this work. Ily lopping oft
the expense thun entailed It Is bollovcJ that
the cost of running the state Jurisdiction will
bo considerably decreased , thus lessening
the aesrcvimonts on the membership. The
recommendations will bo presented to the
grand lodge by the Past Grand Masters' as
sociation.
Monday of the past week waa the anni
versary of the death of the founder of the
order , John J. Upehurch , who died on Janu
ary 18 , 1SS7. The day Is styled Memorial
day In the calendar of the order throughout
the United States. It Is not usually ob
served In this section of the country except
In n very quiet manner. Nevertheless uoniu
of the lodges throughout the state held acrv-
Iccij or affalm of tome kind In honor of thu
day.
In Omaha the c\cnt was alino.it unno
ticed. Memorial day has In a sense been
supplanted hero by Floral day , which Is ob
served in the early summer. Still the
lodges that held meetings on Monday night
dll take notice of the day hy icplnclng hual-
nc33 meetings with social sessions , Ono
of these bodies wa/i Omaha lodge No. IS ,
which gave n delightful little card patty In
Its rooms In the new Odd Fellows' temple.
The evening was thoroughly enjoyed by a
considerable number.
North Omaha , ledge No. 1C9 Is considering
the advisability of removing Itu ledge head
quarters from Wolf's hall Into the central
portion of the city , possibly Into the now
Odd Fellows' temple. It Is stated that the
plan Is being advocated almost unanimously
by the membership at the. lodge.
Grand Hecorder George H. Harbor of
Grand Island was In the city during the
gre-ater part of last week , coming In on
Monday nnd returning to his home on Fri
day. He spent moat of his time with Dr.
S. It , Patten of the grand ledge law com
mittee , who U engaged at preset In revis
ing some of the laws of the bed > .
Next Friday the Mogullans of Union Pa-
elfle conclave No. M\'j \ will give their initial
annual ball nt Myrtle hall , Continental block.
An unusually Interesting program has been
prepared , nnd the ancient adhesiveness of
this popular aide degree of the Workmen
ulll bo fully demoiMtratod by the manner
lu which they Htlck to their fair partners
during the shaking of the light fantastic
on thl-s orrfulon.

Cripple Greek
AND
Black Hills
Cripple Creek produced Inst year over
$10,000.000 In rfold , and the Black Hills over
JC.000,000. Wonderfully rich discoveries are
now being made at the latter plnce. Thou-
snnds of people nre. obtaining great wealth
from these mining dlstiluta. Wo believe
there nre a great ninny who would like
to secure Home share of this wonderful out
put , but who cannot afford to ppcnd the
time nnd money necessary to go there and
look up desirable mining properties. We
are organizing a company to operate nt
both these places and want to Interest a.
number of people In our enterprise. The
amount required of each one will be small
and wo believe , liable to yield enormous
returns. If Intelested , wo will bo pleased
