The Constilu’.ion has the privilege of copying this item without credit, and we shall ex pect the editor to make the comment that it is an evidence of returning business con fidence since the recent Republican victory. | A Sale for Charitable and Religious Purposes. ! That which is already known to some by rumor is now definitely announced that a sale will be held under the management of Christ Church Guild, of Christ Church Parish in this city, assisted by St. Agnes Guild and the Brotherhood of St. Andrew. It is undertaken at the suggestion and by the permission of the Rector of the Parish, and the preparations for it in the bands of an efficient committee of ladies are being encouraged by all the members of the parish, as well as by others. The time will be through the days and evenings of Wed nesday and Thursday, November 22d and 23d. Should there be any necessity for it the sale will be continued on Saturday, but if so nothing will be done on the inter vening Friday, out of reverance for that day, and for the services ot the chnrch al ways held on that day. The place will be the former residence of Dr. Benne't, on Broad street next door tj th_ post office, and the large room formerly used by him as a Dental Office. This place very kindly given for the purposes, is centrally located, accessible and commodious. There will be offered for sale at legitimate prices, home made pies, cakes and candies, and the re sults of the handiwork of the guilds and of individuals, fancy and useful articles, many of which will be desirable as Christmas gifts. No particular use of the money thus made has been decided upon, but it must be understood that it is not lor any debt or arrearage of any sort, as no such exists in the parish. A fair proportion, if not all, the proceeds, will be devoted to purely charit able objects. In view of this fact, also of the fact that the people of Christ’s Church have done nothing of this sort for the past ten years; and of the fact that there will be opportunity for the purchase of very de sirable articles at moderate prices, the pat ronage of the people of Woodbury is confi dently and earnestly solicited. Nothing eatable will be sold for consumption at the place. H. K. T. Lost At Sea. The unknown fate of the Philadelphia schooner Genevieve, which sailed from Phila. early in October for Charleston, S. C., is causing great anxiety to families of the crew. The owners believe that the vessel has foundered and that all hands have perished in one of the October gales, which swept away many other sailing vessels. The Genevieve carried a cergo of 718 tons of bituminous coal, shipped by the Penn Gas Coal Company of Phila., to the Charleston Gas Light Company, and left the Greenwich coal piers over a month ago for her destination. Captain Cbaa. Haley, of Mauricetown, N. J., commanded the vessel, and there was a crew of seven men, mostly residents of Philadelphia and near by towns in New Jersey and Delaware. The crew were : Constant P. Webb, mate ; John McDonald, second mate; Charles I Summers, cook : Adolph Schmidt, James Hughes, Theodore Olsen and James Mc Dade, seamen. Franklin Smith, of Pbilada. was the managing owner. The vessel was built in 1882 at Cooper’s Point, Camden. Capt. Haley was a brother of Mrs. Sam’l Loudenslager of this city, and Uncle of Congressman Loudenslager and Charles Avis of this city. It is believed that the vessel was lost off Frying Pan Shoals. Odd Fellow's Encampment. The Grand Encampment of New Jersey Odd Fellows was in session Tuesday at Masonic Temple, Trenton, Grand Patri arch Evan Dalrymple, of Pfaillipsbnrg, presiding. Grand Scribe Lewis Parker’s report shows that there are fifty-seven en campments under the jurisdiction of the State, and these have a total membership of 3,013. The amount paid for the relier of patriarchs, funeral benefits and special relief is $11,046^4. The officers elected were Grand Patriarch William H. Biddle, of Atlantic City ; Grand High Priest, Jos. McMahon,Newark ; Grand Senior Warden, Albert Bunn. German Valley; Grand Scribe, Lewis Parker, Trenton; Grand Treasurer, Wm. H. Conrter, Jamesburg ; Grand Junior Warden, George Lonpierre, Jersey City ; Grand Representative, J. Barton Smith, Newark ; Grand Inside Sentinel, Philip Heckendom, Newark; Grand Outside Sentinel, Samuel Mills, Camden ; Grand Marshall, Joseph B. Best, Woodbnry. The Grand Lodge will hold a two dav’a session, beginning yesterday. A Farewell Surprise. A company of seventy Christian Endeav orers and friends visited the Baptist par sonage oq Monday evening to pay their President and Pastor a ^farewell surprise. The evening was spent in social intercourse of a most enjoyable character. During the evening Mr. Pierson was presented with an elegant easy chair and Mrs. Pierson with a handsome table, as tokens of esteem. A sumptuous lunch was served during the evening. This society is devoted to their late pastor, and the parting is deeply re gretted. An Interesting Decision* A decision of some interest to the mem bers of benevolent societies in New Jersey, was rendered yesterday. One Bobert Tay lor, agent of the Commonwealth Beneficial Association was convicted last year of vio lating the provision cf the Insurance Act, by doing business without authority of the Insurance Commissioners. He appealed and the decision was handed down by Su preme Court Justice Depue, reversing the verdict on the ground that an association incorporated under the Benevolent Asso ciation Act does not come within the pro. hibition of the insurance laws so long as it confines its agreements to the payment of sick benefits and burial expenses. —Having opened the boot and shoe busiuess in Swedesboro, opposite the M. E. church, I am prepared to supply my many friends and the public with a fall line of first-class footwear at the lowest cash prices. H. B. Shocb. Foot Ball. There was a large crowd present at the West Side grounds last Saturday afternoon when the “Scrubs” and the Woodburys lined up tor a game of thirty-minutes halves. The Woodburys were minus their three centre men but the interference was very good and at times so well collected as to enable tbe backs to make very long runs. The “Scrubs” played a sharp, plucky game but tbe “Reg’s” had weight, speed and gen eral team work and rolled up a score of 56 to 0. For the “Reg’s” Wallis, Beck, Boon, Read and White did the best work, while “Cap” Jessup, Stillwell, Turner, and Mar cus did good work for the “Scrubs.” The teams lined up as follows: Woodbury. Woodbury “Scrub” Thompson, Capt. Left End Stillwell Wallis, Left Tackle Twells Wilson, Left Guard Taggart Henderson Centre W. Garrigues Jones Right Guard Watson Beck i Right Tackle Craig Whitall Right End Cattell Dell Quarter Back Cotter Boon Halt Back Turner Read Half Back Jessup, Capt White Full Back Marcus Touch downs—Wallis 2, Boon 3, Read 2, White 1, Dell 1, Whitall 1, Beck 2. Referee Mr. Garrigues. Umpire Mr. Hudson. The Wizbet Athletic Association of Philadelphia play the home team on tbe West Side grounds, Delaware street, nezt Saturday afternoon, and no doubt there will be the usual large crowd present. Tickets for reserved chairs 15 cents, for sale at news stand, W. J. R. R. Station. Killed while Gunning. A terrible accident occurred in North Woodbnry on Friday last, which resulted in the death of George Dickerson, son of John Dickerson, the well-known colored trustee of School District No. 1. Dicker son, in company with Charles M. Brown, a colored lad, aged 16 years, started out gun ning about noon, and had just reached an apple orchard about 300 yards from Dick erson’s home, when a dock of pigeons dew near the boys. Dickerson discharged his gun at the pigeous, and Brown, who was standing a few feet back of his friend, was about to put his gun to his shoulder when in some manner the hammer went down, discharging the weapon and blowing the lop of Dickerson’s head off, killing him al ost instantly. Brown, paralyzed with freight, ran for assistance, but by the time he had secured help his friend was dead. The body was removed to his parents’ home, and Coroner Smith was notided, who empanelled a jury, and, after hearing the evidence, a verdict of accidental death was rendered. The dead youth was about 17 years old, and was one of the recent graduates of the Woodbury Academy, was well known iD the neighborhood for his kind disposition. He and Brown were constant comDaDions, and the accident has driven Brown almost crazy with grief, and it is feared he will lose his mind. Young Dickerson was also a nephew of the late Bishop Dickerson, of South Carolina. The funeral on Monday was largely attended. Kellar. Is Kellar really a spiritualist? Don’t ask—go and see for yourself. If you ask him point blank he will laugh at your folly. But how else can he out-medium the mediums themselves, turn day into night, materialize a Maid of the Moon who dances upon the air in full view in the brightgas light,lead the minds of strangers, break through all the limitations of time and space, reveal the secrets of black magic and actually cause before yonr very eyes a living, breathing human being to vanish into nothing. He comes here direct from Daly’s Theatre, in New York City, where for a long season he delighted the most critical metropolitan andienceB with snch feats of modern magic (ancient magic never dreamed of equalling them) as “Oh,” “ Flyto,” “ Karmos,” in which his accom plished wife assists him ; the Davenport seance, “ Astarte, the Maid of the Moon,” and “ Ont ofSigbt,or the Phantom Bride.” In his own tricks of slight ol hand it is now conceded tbat Kellar has no equal, and this entire performance, which will be seen on Thursday of next week, at Green’s Opera House, is the most extraordinary of the last decade of the nineteenth century. Attempted Burglary. Late on Thursday night, burglars gained an entrance to the house of Captain B. W. Clond, ex-Superintendent of the Wood bury Water Works, but the timely arrival of tbe family prevented the bnrglars from looting tbe bouse. Ur. Cloud, who is Captain of Company E, Sixth Kegiment, was at the annual in spection of his command, and his family had gone ont to make a call. On return ing home, they were startled to tind tbe light homing brightly in tbe kitchen. Mr. Cloud’s daughter went up stairs, and, se curing a revolver, started to find the in truders. Just as Bhe reached the kitcbeD,a man leaped out of an oieo window. Sbe quickly brought the revolver into action, and three pistol balls were sent after the retreating bnrglar, bat owing to tbe dhrk ness, he escaped. This is tbe fourth time that attempts have been made to rob Ur. Cloud’s house, and it is the general belief that the robbers were well acquainted in the vicinity, and knew that the family were absent from borne. An attempt was made on Sunday night to rob the residence of Barclay Gaunt, on Bed Bank avenne,but the return of the family from church spoiled the robbers’ program. On* of the Sights of the City. Tbe Wanamaker Store bas no superior in the world, and is admittedly the largest in America. The stock, prepared especially for retail, always ranges between four and five millions of dollars, and the peculiar, beautiful and complete arrangements for tbe selling of goods and for the comfort and convenienceof patrons are unsurpassed in the world. This store is one of the sights of the city, and is visited by strangers from far and near. I. O. O F. From the True American of Wednesday we coppy the following interesting histori cal article on Odd Fellowship : The Grand Lodge of New Jersey of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows was instituted in Masonic Hall, in the city of Trenton, on the 3d day of Angnst, 1833, by Grand Sire Tbos. Wildey, John Pierce, of Camden, was the first Grand Master. At that time there were bat three Lodges in the State, and they were New Jersey Lodge. No. 1, of Camden ; Benevolent Lodge, No. 2, of Paterson: Trenton Lodge, No. 3, of Trenton, was instituted on the same date that the Grand Lodge was. New Jersey Lodge, No. 1, and the Benev olent Lodge, No. 2, were made in 1129 by Grand Sire Wildey. It is said that he visited Camden on bis way to institute Benevolent Lodge at Paterson, which in that event would have been No. 1, but some of the members, of which there were a few in Camden, so ar ranged matters that the Grand Sire was prevented from proceeding on his journey, and that night New Jersey Lodge, No- 1 was instituted. The following day he pro eeeded to Paterson, and instituted Benevo lent Lodge, No. 3. Trenton Lodge No. 3, was instituted August 3d, 1833, and con tinued for some years, and finally went down. It was revived and re-organized on November 26,1867, and Israel Howell was made N. G. Associated with him in the revival of the Lodge were Jasper Lan ning, Jacob Beecroft, Joshua Jeffries, Cbas. B. Smith, Joseph B. Yard, John N. Lind say, Henry McCullough, Charles Yanhorn, Aaron Carlisle, L. L. Lettellier, R. B. Bell, Daniel Heald and William C. Branin. Since the reorginization No. 3 has grown along steadily, and now has 150 members in good standing. In connection with Fred D. Stuart Lodge No. 154 they meet in what is known as Odd Fellows’ Hall, on the corner of Broad and East Hanover streets. Concordia Lodge No. 4, of Trenton, is also one of the older lodges, its organization dating back to December 27,1833. John Mount was the first N. G. Many of the older citizens will remember him as having kept a restaurant, where the hungry citi zens of that day got their oyster stews and fries. When Cordia Lodge was organized the meetings were held for some time in the houses ot the members, those who belonged being compelled to sneak in to attend the meetings, as it was considered a disgrace ful thing to be an Odd Fellow in those days. The lodge did not prosper very much until September, 1841, when it was re organized, and continuous weekly meet ings have been held ever since. There are now 160 members in good standing on the books. Many prominent citizens have been affiliated with Concordia Lodge, amoDg them Governor Parker, who was initiated in No. 4, and afterward took his withdrawal card. The following brief statement will show the growth of the Grand Lodge for the 60 years that it has maintained an existence. In 1833, as stated, there were three lodges with a membership of 51, and the total receipts were $206. In 1843 there were 18 Lodges, 1,301 members ; the total receipts were $10,774. In 1853 there were 108 Lodges, 7,349 members, the total receipts amounting to $43,100. In 1863 there were 84 Lodges, 4,490 members, receipts, $30,203. In 1873, 150 Lodges, 15,251 members, receipts $154,357. In 1883, 197 Lodges, 16,682 members, total receipts $181,288. In 1893, 240 Lodges, 23,834 members. total receipts^SS,113.69. THE OBDEB OF ODD FELLOWS. American Odd Fellowship, called the Independent Order, was established by Thomas Wildey at Baltimore on the 26th of April, 1819. The organization was ef fected at the tavern known as the “Seven Stars” on Second street, in the city of Bal timore. The others who assisted in the organization were Thomas Welch, Richard Rushwoith, John Duncan and John Cheat ham. In accordance w ith ancient cnstom they self-instituted themselves a lodge, which they named Washington Ledge, No. 1, of Odd Fellows, and the old lodge is still in existence. Thomas Wildey and bis conferees had been made Odd Fellows in Engined, where the Lodges were originally formed by workingmen for social purposes, and for giving the brethren aid, and for assisting them when ont of work. When a hrother could not obtain work he was given a card and funds enough to carry him to the Dext Lodge, and if unsuccessful there, that Lodge facilitated him in the same way. Where he found employment there he de. posited his card. At first there was no Ritnal, and formal method of conducting the business of the Lodge. In tbe early days ot the institu tion, after the formal business was trans acted, conviviality and good tellowship be came the order of the night, and the breth ren made the welkins ring with their fa vorite songs. When Friendship, Love and Truth abound Among a band of brothers, The cnp ot joy goes gaily round, Each shares tbe bliss of others. Id tbe early history of tbe order each Lodge was tbe arbiter of Us own fate and practically supreme. Tbe need of unity of action, and a bead for the order soon be came apparent, and on Febrnaay 22d, 1821, the Grand Lodge of Maryland was consti tuted by tbe Committee of Past Grands. The charter of Washington Lodge, No. 1> which had come from tbe parent order in England, was snrrendered to the Grand Lodge, and a new charter issued to Wash ton Lodge No. 1, on the 9th of February, 1822. Franklin Lodge No, 2, was subse quently organized and the order began to spread to other States. Massachusetts Lodge, No 1, was self-instituted on the 26th of March, 1820, under tbe snpposition that it was tbe only lodge in the conntry, and so continued until February, 1822, when correspondence took place between the Bos ton and Baltimore brethren. New York and Pennsylvania soon followed. A preliminary meeting for the organiza tion of the Grand Lodge of the United States, composed yf representatives from the Grand Lodges of Maryland, Pennsylva nia, New York and Massachusetts, was held January 25th, 1825. The Grand Lodge of the United States was the supreme head of the order nntil a few years ago when its same was changed to tbe sover eign Grand Lodge, it having grown beyond the locality described by its name. Thomas Wildey was the first Grand Sire, the title having been adopted by general consent! and was confirmed in I»28, and is still re tained as tbe title of the presiding officer of tbe supreme body. The order retained its pre-eminently so cial leatnres nntil the admission of James L. Ridgely, who soon became Grand Secre tary and gave it the vital force that it has to day as a benevolent organization. Tbe small and insignificant beginning made in that little tavern in Baltimore, Dearly sev enty-five years ago has grown to stupen dous proportions. Tbe reports made at the last session of tbe Sovereign Grand Lodge, held in the city ot Milwaukee, on the 18th of September last, show that there were representaties present from 55 Grand Lodges and 50 Grand Encampments representing a membership of 773,431, with ! $3,350,455.84 paid oot for relief to the sick j and burying the dead of the order. Early in the history of the order the in fluence of woman was acknowledged, and the degree of Rebekah was added, and at the present time there are 96,312 ladies who wear the pink and green collar of the Degree. Up to less than twenty years ago* there were five degrees in the Subordinate Lodge, and the work of the Lodge was done in the lowest degree, since that time the order baa been reversed, the degrees being cut down to three and the work done in the highest—a member must take all the de trees before he can sit in the lodge while in session. The “triple link’’ now binds the world in a vast brotherhood to whose ears the cry of the 8ufi'ering and distress comes not in vain.
