Nearly the entire, nine ot the Ural
day's session of the Grand Council, j

yesterday, wan taken up with the elec?
tion of olllceis. In a number of in?
stances there was spirited opposition,
und hardly any ?t the olllceis were
elected on Ilia l|rst ballot. I'ne i^g

The Council appropriated a sum of

Kjpreine Council. Which will meet In
this city May l?-'.'i. Tlie prigram 1?
now In preparation and will be an?
nounced In a few days.
For Ulrunlul Meetings,
One of the important matters to come
before to-day's session of tli'J Council
will be the recommendation made by
Grand Regent Mlnetree Kolke? In his
annu?l report that the Grand Council
hereafter hold bljnnial instead of en- j
r.ual meetings. Mr. Koikes bases his
recommendation on the ground of
economy. He arguea that the money
used t> pay the mileage and per diem of
repreeentail ves from local lodges could
be used to better advantage in Increas?
ing tho scope of the orders work, ad?
vertising It and adding to its member?
ship, lie does, not think that the work
would suffer at all if Ihe meetings were
held every two years. Instead of an
Iiuali}', an at present.
A number of the representatlv.>s do
not agree with Mr. Koikes on this
point, and there is every prospect of a
live debate when the question la placed
b"for- the council. The annual reports
of officers have been placed In the
hands of committees and will be Pre
i-ented formally at this ?-essloi. With?
out exception they are favorable and
will show gre*l progress for the year;

Before ar? audience sappier, warmer,
and much larger even than that which
greeted thu Initial performance of lite
Klrmess, that brilliant festival ot
singing und dancing was presented foi
ii., sei ?hd limu last night, so that the re ;
now i email, but two more opportuni?
ties to witness ihe glittering spectacle
offered by half the beauty and talent
of Ituhmond.
To-n'ght's performance will offer
the same att ructions as those w hich
have combined to make the Klrmess
memorable already, with the constant?
ly giowltig smoothness and certainty
which mark g,ctor? and singers who
have grown "easy" -n llielr parts, but
tills afternoon, for ono appearance only
in t'nis country by express permission
of their fathers and mothers?who
themselves were but yesterday making
life a burden to Mrs. McGuire, Miss
Cllelt, und other Instructors of the
young?will be seen that amazing act, j
? The Teddy Bears and French Dolls," j
in which that eminent young actor,
John B. Swartwout. Jr. (aged four),!
has made the most spectacular hit of
ills stage career. Those who have seen
tho reposeful, assured. urslnely de?
liberative, methods of this remarkable
young animal Impersonator predict a
triumphant career for him in his
chosen profession.
In writing of tho first performance
of the Klrmess, the fingers of the
dazed reviewer, in endeavoring to
praise William Millor for his admir?
able work in "The Biding Lesson"
with Miss Ella Blnford. stumbled upon
the keys which had grown accustomed
to spelling D-i-c-k-s-o-n when a man ;
was to be particularly commended, j
In this Klrmess of ours "there's glory
enough for us all," and It was Mr. Mil- ,
ler who forsook his steering wheel for'
an imaginary saddle nnd rode with so i
much fire snu determination that he !
is said to have been a bit stiff nnd
sore the next morning.
However, he mounted asaln last;
night and rodo to a finish in a manner]
that would have made George Humeral,)
or any other Prince Danlio. humbly of-!
fer to pump tires for htm. and. asj
everybody knows, humility can go no;
further.
Another nosy should go to Mills;
Neal, who. owing to the sudden illness
of one of the Irish dancers, went on
last night, without rehearsal, "and par?
