The Rebekah Assembly wound up
its business lust night and adjourned
to meet in South McAlester next

The session has been a very success
f ul and very harmonious one; and its
meetings have drawn the delegates
more closely together and strengthen
ed their faith in their beloved order.
They felt that it ".has been good to
be here," and t lie change afforded
them by the visit to Tulsa has been
beiieticial to them in every way find
greatly enjoyed by all.
Vesterday's meetings were full of
business. The election of ollicers was
the most important, and the installa
tion of ollicers last night was very im
jiressive and witnessed by ono of the
largest gatherings during the entire
session.
Mrs. Christina llokey, the retiring
president, installed the newly elected
ollicers, and performed her duties ad
mirably. She was ably assisted by
the other retiring ollicers.
A most interesting feature of the
occasion was the presentation of a
magnificent and cotsly jewel to Mrs.
llokey by Mrs. Virginia Shearer, of
Tishomingo, on behalf of the Rebekah
Assembly. In making the presenta
tion Mrs. Shearer referred in admir
ably chosen words to the excellent
manner in which the retiring presi
dent had filled the office during die
' year just closed, her noble character
'and the satisfaction her rulings had
given to all. Mrs. llokey responded
in a few words of thanks and commen
dation of her, successor, and enjoined
on all the necessity of giving the new
president every assistance in their
power.
.It was ordered that a jewel be pur
chased and presented to Miss Allie
Schmidt, retiring secretary, for her
efficient discharge of the duties of
that office.
At four o'clock this morning many
of the delegates had left for their
homes. By every train today others
have been going and by tonight they
will all have gone.
Tulsa has been proud of the oppor
tunity to entertain ' so many ladies
from every point in the Territory,
and the ladies, without an exception,
are glad to have been here. They are
delighted with the town and the
courtesies extended them and regret
exceedingly they were not included in

yesterday afternoon and evening.
In the afternoon the session win oc
cupied principally with the discussion
on the setting apart of $20,000 for an
addition to the Orphans' Home at
Checotah. After the matter had been
thrashed over for two or three hours,
a vote was taken, and resulted in a
victory for the friends of the proposi
tion by a huge majority.
A committee, consisting of 1!. l'
LnFayolte, P. (I. M Checotah, G. W. j
Mowbray, Sr., Grand Warden, Tulsa,
J. A. Rose, Cherokee, B. B. Burnett.:
Grand Treasurer, Sapulpa, and . .
Cardovu, of Tishomingo, was appoint
ed to look after and direct tlwj build
ing of the addition to the home.
The discussion delayed the members
one hour, so that it was late when the
delegates got started on their drive
around the city. To the credit of the
citizens be U stated that pretty nearly
every one who had a vehicle placed it
at the disposal of the Grand Lodge,
so that the 1ig majority enjoyed a
very pleasant ride! They saw what
Tulsa had in the shape of resources,
and were amazed exceedingly.
The drive lasted a couple of hours,
and greatly rested every one after the
arduous labor they had been enduring,
and fitting them for the installing cere
monies in the evening.
The installing f officers was per
formed by Past Grand Master Par.
kinson, of Wagoner, who carried it
through in admirable manner. As
in the Rebekah Assembly, and as is
customary in the Grand Lodge, a
splendid Past Master's jewel was pre
sented to retiring Grand Master P. F.
LaKayette, of Checotah. The presen
tation speech' was made by Sovereign
Representative Stillwell 11. Russell, of
Ardniore, one of the linest speakers
and best lawyers in the territory, lie
enthused the brethren as he dwelt up
on the excellencies possessed by the
retiring officer, to whom he paid a
tribute no( often heard in lodge meet
ings. Mr. LaKayette was too overcome t
reply. The tears coursed each other
down his cheeks as he stammered his
thanks, and thus was brought to a
close this most successful session of
the Grand Lodge of the I. 0. 0. F.
By tonight the city will be empry of
the guests whose visit was so pleas
ant and profitable to Tulsa.

SPIDERS LOST
SHAFFT'S OILERS SHUT OUT
WEBB CITY YESTERDAY 3-0. N
ALL DONE IN THE FOURTH
Second Game Faster than the First
Manager Lifted One Over Right
Tield Fence.
In a game which was characterized
by several sensational field plays and
a home run by Shan't with a man on
second, the Oilers yesterday shut out
the Spiders from Webb City by a
score of ,1 to 0. The locals made good
with three double plays which enmo
at the right time to prevent serious
consequences, and hit with such avid
ity that Webb was forced again to
double up on delivery boys. Ole 01c
son in the sixth broke the camel's
back with a three-bagger, tiuil Mere
dith succeeded Shancr as the central
figure of Missouri's galaxy. Shaner
was bit all over the lot during the
first six spasms, and the subsequence
was similar.
There was nothing doing in the way
of results until the fourth, when Bate'
slugged the sphere sufficiently to en
title him to a quarter of a bean. While
Miner was jollying Shaner with the
shillelagh, he swiped another quarter.
Having placed Brother Bates where he
wanted him, Miner transacted busi
ness aggressively and promptly,'' add
ing a two-base hit to his bank account
and scoring Bates. Immediately af
ter this Manager Shafft stepped se
renely in front of the back stop and
humming "Home, Sweet Home, "with
a south side upper-cut, lost the ball
in the clouds hanging over the right
field fence. That was all there was
to it. The game might just as well
have concluded at that point, but was
continued, probably in order to allow
Bates to distinguish himself by get
ting under an almost iniossibIe one
in center, and the Spiders' official at
the three-quarter tist to hook a tor
rid one right off the slapstick with
his left mitt.
Selby as dictator controlled his
subjects admirably, and got dust in
his eyes only a couple of times, divid
ed equally between both teams.
The third of this series of exhibition
games is being played today.
