Fifty years atter the institution of the first lodge, the following statistics show the work and the history of the order in the state: Present number of lodges, 373 ; number ot initiations, 39,628 ; admitted by card, 12,258; reinstatements, 6,130; withdrawn by card, 23,389; suspended, 24,1725 expulsions, 1,400; deaths, 3,131; rejected, 6,746; brothers relieved, 26.555; widowed families relieved, 7,059; brothers buried, 2,857; paid for relief of brothers, $445,496.88 ; paid widowed families, $215,410.26; paid for the education of orphans, $99,268 24; paid tor burying the dead, $125,730.34; reported tor special relief, $10,119.36; total amount ot relief paid, $896,025.08 ; total amount of reyenue, $2,312,- 862.76 For the first eight years the lodges were not required to re- port the amount of relief turnished so that the aggregate for the decade ending in 1876 was doubtless, much greater than appears in the footing above. Accurate Description. The Butler Democrat and the Record, both, by tne way, under about the same management, (and, except a nominal ( ?) standing, polit- ically, the Record is for the same candidates for office, from road- overseer to State officials) cannot stand a little pleasantry and a tew tacts in the little tilt over the St. Louis, Rich Hill & Colorado rail- road. Austin and Nathaniel are quite like twins. Their minds run much in the same channel. One was borna democrat, the other a republican, but times and circum- stances have reversed the condition in which nature or the accident ot birth and environments placed them. Hence it is not at all strange that the postmaster or the ex postmaster, after so many years’ training under the same local management and ring influence, make a pair that would do honor to the ring, or any circus and menagerie combination now traveling. And how innocent, how child like and bland they are. To listen to their sophistries and pleasantries, one would imagine they had been with the angels, that little wings had already begun to sprout.—Rich Hill Review. Bouncing the Boomers.
