A resolution endorsing 8. B. Wadsworth of this tftjr for grand worthy president of the order waa adopted with much enthusi asm and by a unanimous rising vote, Mr. Wadaworth was candidate for the position last year at Milwaukee, but withdrew at the last moment. The Iowa delegation to the grand aerie at Norfolk In September will now boom his candidacy. The reports of President Stephens and Secretary Meers showed that there aru thirty-eight subordinate aeries In Iowa with a membership exceeding 7.600. During the last year aeries were organized at Decoruh and Woloott, Cities and towns In which aeries are es tablished are: Sioux City, Council IUuITs. Des Moines, Ottumwa, Cedar Rapids. Fort Dodge, Davenport, Oskalnosa, Marshall town, Dubuque, Keokuk, Iowa City, Clin ton, Waterloo, Hurllngton, Boone, Musca tine, Anamosa, Carroll, Perry, Oolwe'n, Elkader, Valley Junction, Maquoketa, Mon tlcello, Ft.

Hanlon, former state deputy, were brought up. Hanlon Is tho Waterloo man who waa Indicted In this city on the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses In connection with the recently organized Eagle Life Insurance company. The charge waa made In the convention that Hanlon had unlawfully col lected and retained funds belonging to the state aerie derived from the per capita ta:t with the result that the finances of the state aerie are Insufficient to meet the de mands. The history of his connection with the Eagle Life Insurance company was gone Into and a sweeping resolution was adopted by the state aerie. The action by the state aerie yesterday afternoon, one of the officers announced, would result in Hanlon being ousted from the order. Much of the business transacted by the grand aerie yesterday was not of a public nature. The attendance yesterday was larger than on the opening day, the roll call showing seventy-one accredited dele gates present. tglertlon Comes Today. It Is thought likely that the session this morning will suffice to complete the busi ness of the meeting. Officers will be elected and the place for next year's meeting chosen. Marshalltown arid Cedar Rapids are both In the field for next year s meet lng. The banquet at the Grand hotel last night waa a complete success despite the fact that while covers were laid for 2M there were only a few over 100 In attendance. Mayor Macrae was unavoidably absent and Mayors Dahlman of Omaha, and Hoctor of South Omaha, were unable to be present, but there were plenty of other speakers to fill their places on the program.

There Is other land : occupied by other corporations and persons Involved In other suits of a similar nature and If they are all settled to the advantage of the state lt will mean the enrichment of the stale treasury to the amount of about a quarter of a million dollar. The land Is what 1 known as the "Cut Off," In Bast Omaha. Besides that occupied by the railroads ome 1 occupied by fac torie and for other purposes.

In the Iowa Health Bulletin, Issued today by the secretary of the State Board of Health, lt Is claimed that the decision of the slaughtering and packing companies to accept no meat for canning without a post niortem examination guarantee Is causing the t-tate of Iowa to get the worst Of lt, and stringent recommendations are made to tho local boards of health. Secretary Thomas states in the Bulletin that the gov ernment Inspection of meats tins caused the packer to receive no animal for can ning except subject, to the post mortem ex amination by the government inspectors. This has caused these V'canners" to be forced onto the local trade where they are butchered In local unsanitary slaughtering houses and sold to the local market. The charge is made by Secretary Thomas that diseused cattle In large numbers are being thus slaughtered and sold In meat to the people of Iowa. He furthermore claims that many of the workmen about butcher hop are suffering from loathsome dis eases. He calls attention to the fact that lt will be two years before the legislature can meet to remedy matters and that the only Immediate remedy lie with the local boards of health. He urge these to act at once. C. Hafer of Council Bluffs, la., sells direct to the farmer and stockman. PIANO AND ORGAN accompaniment. Miss Margaret Morehouse, Council Bluffs. Tel. 94.
