When the twenty-ninth session of the
grand lodge of Iowa Knights of Pytbias ,
was called to order yesterlay morning at
10:20 : o'clock in the big halt In the Odd Fel-
lows' temple by Grand Chancellor C. C.
1)owchl of Des Moines there were over 800
delegates and members in attendance. It
50011 became apparent that the hail , large
his it is , was too small for such a gathering
and on motion of Supreme Itepresentativo
] lanlcy It was decideil to bold the to-
mainder of the sessions iii the opera house ,
hleforo opening the graiiil lodge Iii meg-
ular form ( Irand Chancellor Dowell intro-
( lUced Mayor Jennings , who delivered on
address of welcome on behalf of the city.
Mayor Jennings was followed by City At-
tomneyV. . Ii. 'Vadsworth , who in the ab-
sciicc of Colonel C. G. Saunders was called
upon to wulcomo the visitors on behalf of
( ho local knights , lie did so In a most
linlpy vein and both ho and the mayor
wcl.o most cntitusiasticahiy received. Grand
Tribune lion. 11. 'F. ( Imanger of Des i1oines
responded for the grand lodge In eloquent
terms.
At the conclusion of the addresses the
past chancellors and reprcsentati yes who
had not received the rank retired and the
grand lodge then opened in ritualistic form.
The first business taken tip was the report
of the grand chancellor , which was vre-
ScHteI ( lit printed form and referred to the
committee On distribution of officers' re-
vorts.
Grit ad Clin tit'ch to r' , hIccohhhhhlcllIat Ions
In his report Grand Chancellor Doweil
made a number of reconiniendatlons. lie
suggested that tIle present. plan of reconi-
mendIng a past chancellor to be appointed
deputy was by no incahis satisfactory , as
while a majority of the lodges were Irompt
in itiaking the recoznhnenIation many of
theft were dilatory. lie recommended that
the law be so changed that cacti subordinate -
dinate lodge when It. makes a relort to the
grand lodge In July should recommend a
past chancellor to be continissioneil deputy
by the nowiy elected grand chancellor. lie
leliCVCd in the citleacy of a good Pythilan
paper and suggested that thu grand lodge
take oiiio action In having an oflicial organ -
gan and making annual provision for its
support. lie reconimended that a law be
enacted providing that grand representa-
tlvcs should be ciected for two years. one-
half to be elected each year , the odd numbered -
bored lodges could elect one year and
the even numbered the following year.
Thto grand trlbunai , tie suggested. should
fill a larger iirpose tItan It ( hoes and that
Its lOWCtS should be so enlarged as that
the grand chianceiior might refer such
questions of law to it as ho deems best
for Its decision and that its decision , when
inaile , should stanI as the iaw until me-
versed by the supreme tribunal. As it now
i the grand chancellor may decide a question -
tion , a lodge may act iii accordance therewith -
with and this action may be declared Ii-
legal by the tribunai. Dealing on the
much I000tel ciUestion of recognizing the
Rathbono Sisters as part of the order ho
says :
This is an ago when women have entered
nearly every 110141 in successful competition
with their brothers. Woman's clubs , asso-
ciatiotis 1111(1 fraternities nrc everywhere.
0(1(1 ( their capabilities as co-workers wIth
IHUhI are universally recognized. Title is
especially true of tue ltathbono Sisters.
They not only accomplish much good among
themselves , but where a tcmplo exists the
subordinate lodge Is sure to he stronger
ahtd more active. I would be glad to see
8. Itathbono teflhllO in conjunction with
every subordinate lodge in this domain , he-
hieving the order would thereby te

I hope the supreme representatives from
this dOiflhtin YiiI USO their influence in securing -
curing for thehn proper recognitIon front
thu supreme iodgo.

Carse , president of the Board of Temple
Trustees of the Woman's temple of Chicago ,
In rmferring to thin action taken at a recent
meettng of the executive committee of the
National Wontelt's Christian Temperance
uiiion , said :
"The rCColtllnendatlOfl of the commIttee
that the local Vomen's ChrIstian Temper-
nnco' union societies discontinue any further
effort to pay for the temple on account of
slow progress which has been made in cot-
lectlng ntoney was a most unfortunate
( lecisiOll , nod is not upheld by the rank and
file of the society. The Temple trustees are
alt incorporated 00(1 ifldehOfllent body , and
have not the slightest idea of abandoning tue
project of making the temple Miss Willard's
memorial. Miss Willard's last words on her
death bed in regard to the temple were :
'Oh , if I could be of help. Oh , that seine-
one would help me in my extremity so that
success might come to thin temple. ' More
plans than aver have been set on foot by
the Temple trustees to pay for the beautiful
building , and some large subscriptions have
been received wIthin a week. The chain'
letter Bent out by the Young People's Christian -
tian Temperance titlion Is proving a great
success. "
