Lodge No. ISC, Phlladel- l( phia. Pa.; John Goshorn and G. L. j| Thompson, of Wheeling lodge No. 128, _ A M. M. lodge was opened in due t form, minutes read and approved. Bro. j J. M. Warden. S. W., and A. Dunlevy, t S. D., now entered and took their re- e spectlve stations. j I am thus particular In copying the . minutes of the meeting that our present omccrs may Jearn now faithfully their I predecessors attended the meetings of ,( the lodge. Twenty-one ollicers and members, out of a membership of probably lcs3 than one hundred, were present. Of those oncers and member# of No. 101 present fifty-one years ago, all save fl one are believed to bo dead. James / Luke, of Missouri, a brother of the late Mr. Kobert Luke, was In the city last . fall attending the funeral of his brother. I tnet him then, and I pre- n suine he is still living. ft A few of us can remember Brothers Sights, Day, Houston, Norton and Bal- . ley, of No. 101, and John Goshorn, .of . Wheeling Lodge No. 128. The others you alone of all the present lodge mem- . b?-rs can have a distinct recollection. Fifty-one years ago the telegraph was ? a mystery and a wonder. Invented thirteen years before. The Mexican ' war of 1S17-48 had made a hero of General Zach Taylor, and he wns elected President of the United States, and In- , augurated March 4. IS 10, seven months . before ho wis made a M. M. The city , of Chicago wa? mere tmdlng post or a half-dozen huts. Had an angel told P President Taylor that In lens than llfty * years the President of the United States . could sit In his room In Washington " and converse with frlr-nds In Chicago, old "Rough and Iteady" would have . made It hot for the angel. Wheeling I was without a railroad for three years after; the first train on the Baltimore & Ohio came Into Wheeling In ISM. Hut this Is not a secret to you. Our 11 necret Is that your brethren of Ohio ; Lodge having passed by so many recur- u ring anniversaries and birth days of our u loved tylcr, without recognition, when v they discovered that the date. Monday, October 1. 1900. was the exact anniversary or your bring made a M. M., con- r eluded It as good time as any for a date ii of kindly recognition, hence they have Invitediyou Inside the lodge this evening that the brethren tnay Ret acquainted with you and be able to vouch for you as a M. M. In case you were to t visit with them In some oHmr JurlHdlc- K tlon. a There are others present who have a something to say, hence I conclude, wishing you many pleriKant returns of anniversaries and birthdays.

The executive committee will meet Thursday evening at Beethoven hall; the marshals will meet at the same place Wednesday evening; the finance 1 commltttee meets Friday evening at Arlon hall. The speaking stand Is to be erected at the northwest corner of the citycounty building, and next Saturday it is to be used for the White-Holt Joint debate, by,permission of the German Day committee. The street arches will be decorated with greens this week, and will be illuminated Sunday and Monday nights. The different halls where entertainments are to be given Monday night, | will also be decorated. Chairman Beu, of the executive committee, says there has been an lntlma- j tlon In certain quarters that German Day Is In some way connected with politics. Speaking of this, Mr. Deu says: "German Day has nothing to do with politics or parties. More than anything else German Day is a patriotic affair, and more commemorative of what happened in America than In Germany. We are proud that the Gorman settlers landed on American soil on October 6, 1GS3. and had the dash and courage to open up an untrodden wllilfirnoRx In rlvillinllnn hrlnrlnf u'llh them Industries, teachings and feelings that this is our country by adoption.
