The three links Insignia of the order was In evidence everywhere , ft was on the breasts of the multitudes that thronged the Directs , and , wrought with nags and bunting , It was conspicuous in the dcco rations of the buildings on alt of the prin cipal streets of the city. The event that called forth the unusual demonstration was n dual one , the celebration of the soventy- clghth anniversary of the founding of the order In America and the dedication of the magnificent new temple that the local lodges have erected. Added to the morp than 800 members of the order In Council Tlluffs and their fami lies cainu fully ce many members with , their wl\cs and diughtois from a territory within a ladlus of 200 miles from the city. H wan of welcome Council nn old-fashioned , royal sort cil muffs gave them , and uot one was given occasion to feel that ho was a stranger In a stiange land The program arranged by the local committees was carried through without a break. The day was as perfect as could be dwlred Local reception committees were nt nil of the morning trains and re celvcd the large number of visiting delega tions thfit nulved Visitors continued to arrive on the trains that came In as late as 2 o'clock , and many that had planned to dose so were not able to take part In the parade , although this was purposely delayed for their accommodation The Omaha delegations , comprising nearly 300 men. came over n sppclil motor trains shoitly after 1 o clocX , beaded by the Seventh Ward Military band In the formation of the line they were an- yigned to the pc t of honor Immediately In the rear of the local cantonment and rab- cidlnatc lodges. The parade formed at Uay- llss park at 1-30 and was held until a little after 2. The line of march covered the prin cipal business streets and concluded with a match of several blocks up Fourth street , which intersects with Hroadway directly op posite the temple. The line was n very long one , and Included over 2,000 Odd I-el- lows. Among the vMtlng lodges were Hnrlan , Nos 2C.7 and 327 ; Shelby , Nos HO , 401 and 327 , Avoca , Nc-s 220 and 21) ) ; Missouri Val ley Nos 170 and 26S , MoJale , Nos 573 and 2CS ; Mondamln.

None of the Ucbekahs took pait In the parade except the few who rode In the caniagcs with the grand officers. The music for the parade was furnished by the i Omaha band of nineteen pieces nnd the Coun-1 ell niufts band of twenty pieces. The parade I fully realized the expectations of the local committees. , AFTER THE- MARCH WAS OVER. In the conclusion of the long march at the he\d of Fourth street some very pretty evolutions were noted. The Council Bluffs cantonment and subordinate lodges had led the line throughout the march , but when the end wap reached they formed double line on each sldo of the street , through which the ofileom rode. The other lodges took the tame formotlon further down the street , and when the carriages containing the grand master and other ofilcers reached there they lode- through solid lines extending a distance of three blocks. This arrangement permitted all of the visiting lodges to pass between the Council IllufTB delegations und receive the graceful salutes of their heats , and it also permitted all of them to enter the temple building In advance of their entertainers. The exeielscs were held In the large public hall on the second floor , the regular lodge loom on. the upper floor being entirely too small to accucmodato the crowd. The floor of the hall was originally covered with SOO chalis , but to accommodate ns many as pos- filble of the visitors the chairs were crowded a little , more closely and room was made for 200 more. The building was dedicated by the officers of the grand lodge of Iowa , Grand Master J , S. Hellamy ot ICnoxvllle , Grind Marshal N. Jasper Jones of Shelby , Grand Warden J. C. Koonz of Uurllngton , Grand Heralds C. E. Tucker , D. AV. Selby , Louis Harris and George Wilson nnd Giand Chaplain C. W. Foster of Council Bluffs. The ceremonial of dtdlc.itlon in accordance with the ritual of the order Is beautiful and expressive , and given as Ik was before the magnificent audi ence , compoced w holly of members of the order , It seemed to acquire new expression of the great principles of Odd Fellowship. The chairs were arranged in the hall In the form ot a cross , leaving the four aisles open. In the center was built the temple block by block by the grand ofilcers. The hall was hnndpomely decoiatcd with flowers , palms and ferns. On the platform lira id ns the grand ofilcers were seated the venerable I ) . C. llloomcr. who announced the program , Rev. 1) . C.

RESPONSE TO THE WELCOME. Deputy Grand Master Koonz responded and declared that the words of welcome and the generous hospitality the visitors had re ceived had sunk deep Into the hearts of the strangers and that they had every reason to believe the welcome was extended In the spirit upem which the order -was founded. He gave a brief history of the foundation of the order In America , and noted Ita great work and growth , until nt the present timp It numbers among Its members In geol standing over 1.000.000 men nnd many wo men Ho declared that he felt great pride In colling attention to the strength of the order In Iowa , which embraced more than 70,000 members , who were living up to the principles of Odd Fellowship , visiting the sick , burying thp dead , nnd caring for the widows nnd orphans. Alluding to the magnificent temple about to bo dedicated , ho declared "Like the place we occupy In fraternal orders , thp place where wo meet today , your magnificent temple Is bright nnd cheerful. The reception of Odd Fel lowship which your people have accorded to lay is all that wp could conceive and all that we could desire. " The music during these preparatory ser vices was furnished by the Mendelssohn quartet of Omaha , and was so well received that the quartet was obliged to respond spend to nn encore before the ceremonies could proceed. BUILDING THE TEMPLE. The solemn and expressive dedicatory ceremonies were begun by thp grand mas ter calling upon the audience to rise and sing the opening ode. In a brief address the grand master explained nnd extolled the principles upon which the sreat order rests. The work ot building the temple In thp center of the cross in the middle of the hall was then begun. Grand Marshal Jones called upon the heralds one by ono to bring forth thn stones' of which the tem ple was to be built. The herald from the south entered , follow pi by workmen , bearing a large snow-white block , representing Pur ity , the foundation of the temple. The herald from the north lei the workmen bearing n pink btone , representing Prlendshlp , and fitted It upon the foundation. The herald from the east came In with a blue stone , representing Love , followed by the herald from the west , bearing a scarlet slab , typ ical of truth. These fitted together brought the temple to half Its designed height Pol- lowing came the encampment insignia to complete the work. The grand lioraUls from the north nnd south , nt the bidding of the master , appeared with a blue slab In scribed Faith. Then came the heralds from the east and west , bearing a golden stone , representing Hope , and at the word of com mand all of the heralds united In bring ing in the crowning stone , a slab ot roval purple , representing the greatest of all hu man virtues , Charity. It was surmounted by vvhlto battlements nnd completed the tem ple that has for Its founditlon Purity nnd for Its superstiucture Kilendshlp. Love and Truth and Faith. Hope nnd Charity Louis Hammer , In the capacity ot chief builder , advanced and delivered the ke\o of the completed temple to thp grand mas ter. The keys were tied with ribbons of the order's colors , pink , green and puiple The grand master then proclaimed the dedi cation , snd the grand heralds repeated the proclamation to the north , south , eabt and west Invocation bv Grand Chinlaln C. W Poster completed the beautiful ceremonial The f-oncludlng number on the proginm was the address on Odd Fellowship by Dr Askin. Many of the people in the au- dlenco were unfortunately obliged to leave the hall txt the commencement of the ad dress to enable them to reach theii trains for home. The address was ono o' Dr Askln's most happy efforts. H was a beau tiful and powerful exposition of Odd Fel lowship. The whole ceremony concluded last evening with n banquet and bail that was one of the most brilliant social events of the week. CITIKUNS MAICn VI'ltO.NK PIlOTnSTS. ApiiotntiiiPiit of J. M. Hardlii In Mc ( nidi ManObjections. . The Inquiry into the cltl/enshlp ot J. M. Hardln , elected by the council to the position of street commissioner , promls.es to be a genuine Pickwickian trial , nnd the dignity of Mayor Carson and the veteran members of the council will bo sorely taxed to pre vent it assuming farcical features. For two and a half hours last evening the council as a committee of the whole wrestled with the problem raised by the petition of the Sixth warders , who arlccd the council to re consider Its action in electing Hardln on the grounds that 1-e Is not a citizen. The peti tions now before the council bearing upon the case contain the names of about 300 tax payers and republicans They have been ac cumulating for the last month but the lasl is the only ono of sufficient Importance tc prevent it being disposed of by the usual method of receiving it and placing It on file. This petition was referred by the coun cil nt the meeting on last Monday night to the committed of the whole , which was called last night. The council chamber was filled with the supporters of Mr. Hanllii nnd the men who are asking his removal. Squlio Vien appeared for the petitioners and Mr. Hnrdln's Interests were looked after by Colonel John Llndt. Both poured forth a flood of impassioned oratory. Before the matter was taken up a motion was carried that no other matters , In which the Interested parties had not been notified , should bo considered. John. W. Paul's two Indian creek ordinances which had floated to the surface again went over under this de cision The ordinance providing that the contracts for city printing and stationery were read again for the information of the committee. Alderman. Casper moved that the committee recommend the ordinance for passage , but City Attorney Haielton called attention to the fact that the new laws phased by the legislature would make It necejsary to change the form of the ordinance , and further conriderntlon of it was postponed. The aldermen then be'ttled down to the patient corsldcratlon of the Sixtli warders petition. After the petition had been read again and the clerk had stumbled through the long list of names , VIeii began his ad dress. Ho said Hardln wan not a citizen because - cause ho had moved his family from the city last December and that they were now residents of Carson , and that Hardlii had porno back for the purpose of getting the Job of street commlftdoner , bringing nothing with him but the clothes he wore. Ho de clared that he had looked up the law care fully and had discovered that Ihu fact that Hardln was not a cltlron did not Interfere ) with the legal right of the council to ap point him ; that there waa no law to prevent the alikrinen appointing any man they chcne , oven though ho was not a citizen of the United States. Whllo there waa no law against the appointment ot a nu.i-rcblilent , he declared that it was against public policy to do 10 He made ! an eiarnest appeal to the council to conc'ldcr the petition of the citizens , because as citizens they were en titled to muh corslderation , Colonel Llndt responded in behalf of Har- Mrs.JosephlnePolhW.ofDiie'W'cst , S. 0. , Jiael u Eovuru case ) of eatnrrli , whlohlliiallybeejamoBoeleep-SL'att'il tlmfcsho waa entirely ih-af in ono car , nnil part of | ho bono in liernoso BioiiLjIied otf.

He asked the council If It was going to pleiul Ignorance and admit tha8 It did not know ( what It was doing when It voted for Hamlln. r "Are you going to say , " he yelled , thit you are a lot of numbskulls ? " ' ' "If you want to Investigate anything , In vestigate thp petition , " ho donllnued , "and you will find It Is signed by hiemiyou never heard of , men who are not cllteis of this or any other country. Invostlgnte It and you will find It Is full of forgeries and bears the names of nnarch'sts. " "Aro you a lot of numbskulls ? " ho asked again , with a vehemence that shook the building , "that you will let these Idle po ; > o- crats and democrats and all other kinds of crats Interfere with your ofllclil acts ? " lie then proceeded to argue the case In professional style. Alderman Casper hotly resented the Im putation that the members cf the council were numbskulls , and ho procecdeel to roast Colonel Llndt In a most vigorous manner. Alderman Mctcalf moved that the council proceed to hear the evidence as to Hardln's citizenship Alderman Atklna thought there should bo some direct charges. Cas per asserted that the petition Itself contained the charges necessary , and that it was the duty of Hardln to prove that he was a citi zen. After a good deal moro pirtisan skir mishing , It was decided to require the peti tioners to present the evidence In the form of affidavits to be filed In the olllce of the city clerl. by G o'clock this evening. Har dln will then have two days to look over them and file his counter alfidavlts , and the council will meet again In committee ot the whole on Thursday evening at 7.30 ei'clock to hear the affidavits read. H was decided that the only question to be considered is that of Hardln'a citizenship. PREPARING TO FLEE ( Continued from Plrst Page ) securities were freely bought In view of the war.

The Times today pub llshes n dispatch from Athens , dated Satur day night , giving an account of an Intel view of the Times correspondent there will the Greek premier , M. Dclyanuis. The latte is quoted as saying that neither the king no the government had received any Information that day from the Greek army In Thessaly beyond the announcements that the Creel forces had been successfully concentrated a Pharsala , to which place thej had retreatcc In good order , caving an their artillery ex cept the siege guns , which they had beci forced to abandon. General Smolcnskl's colliintij concerning which the greatest anxiety was felt , has reached Phaisala safely nnd the premier added tint 40,090 troops ifro now couccn tiated at I'har.sala , which is a place ot con sidcrablo strength , the adv'isabtfity of occu py.ng It in case of ictrcat Tinvlng long been under consideration by the1 government.

' The successes of the Greek troops In Eplius , M.

The premier was co.ivlured Athens would remain ejulct , that the pooploi liad complete confidence In the king and thq government had assured the Times correspondent , there was no reason to fear any disturbance. M Delyannls , the Times correspondent adds , in spite of his ago and severe anxieties , ap peared to be in the best of health nnd spirits. Interviews with the ministers of marine and war were also obtained by thp Times correspondent. The former Elated that he hat not received confirmation of the rumor tha Dedcagatcu had been bombarded by the Greek fleet. After the destruction of Plata inoni nnd Katrlna , the minister ot marine added , the eastern squadron had been orderei to find and engage the Turkish fleet am the present location of the seiuadron was no known. The minister of marine , did no think It necessary for the Greek war ships to return to protect Volo.

A dispatch to the Jouinal from Berlin says : The Tagcblntt an nounces that a definite agreement has been reached between Hussla and Au-jtiia con cerning Turkey. The teims of the agree ment , it Is said , are that the sultan shall renounce Crete , that the Russians shall be given a coaling station at Suda bay. In that Island , nnd that In return Russia shall guarantee the integrity of Tuikey. The advantage of this arrangement to the nations interested Is obvious. Russia , In command of ono of the most Important ports of Ciete , will be greatly strengthened In the line of its coveted advance toward the south. Turkey , with the formidable power of the vvhlto czar behind It , will have secured , al most beyond the possibility of disaster , a position from which It can rule Its trouble some subjects without fear of revolt en couraged by the hope of foreign Interference. It would bo moro than willing that Itus/ila should assume such a protectorate over the empire. To this agreement Austria , France nnd Germany will , It Is understood , give their consent. England alone has not made known Its views on this question. In llio best Informed quarters , however. It Is be lieved that a very strong protest will be certain to come from the court of St , James.

Many foreign military expeits believe that the Greek army will melt away during a further retreat. It Is now reported In this city that the Turks have pillaged Larissa. Owing to the nature of the stampede there when the news arrived that the ' 1 urks were closing In on the city , It Is doubtful It the Greeks suc ceeded in removing their wounded. Cltlzcno hero fear that many of these unfortunate man have been massacred. The poweis have already exchanged views on the situation in Tnessaiy.
