BRILLIANT SCENE AT CONVENTION HALL The Vice President’s Appreciative Words of Cordial Hospitality. GUESTS OF THE DISTRICT Before a large and enthus‘astic audience at Convention Hall last night the hand of hearty weleome was extended to the Su- preme Lodge of the Knights of Pythias. As a matter of fact, it might be said that three hands were extended, for the welcome was tendered in behalf of the government, on the part of the District ard the citizens and by the local lodges of the Pythian order in fitting terms of oratory, the sen- timents of which were echoed by the as- semblage, were the visitors bidden to make themselves at home in the nation’s capital, Fanctulli and the Marines. their own capital and joint inheritance, and, | as the Vice President of the United States expressed it, welcomed to the house of their fathers. The absence of the Supreme Lodge on account of the death of Mr. Shaw caused a slight change in the program for the even- ing and deprived the audience of a portion of the expected addresses, but the occasion Was a notable one notwithstanding, and the ceremonies interesting. A great many invitations were sent out and the affair Was evilently anticipated with pleasure by a large number of people, for when the doors were opened at 7:30 a throng was at the portals awaiting entrance. Every one had reserved seat tickets, but apparently there was an impression that the place would be crowded, for long before § o'clock the majority of the audience had arrived and were seated. As the people filed into the hall there were many expressions of delight and ad- miration at the change which has been wrought in the interior of the place since it was last used for a public purpose. An attractive-looking stage has been erected im the south end and the rear half of the floor of the hall has been elevated so as to give the audience seated there a better view of the stage. Last night the interior of the great structure was brilliantly light- ed by the hundreds of incandescent electric lamps studding the arched iron girders of the ceiling, and from every window droop- ed artistically arranged decorations of bunting. The stage was furnished with chairs, and a row of foliage plants across the front of it added to the appearance. Immediately in front of the age the United States Marine Band, with Prof. Fanciulli at the baton, was stationed, and formed an object of interest during the evening. A Distinguished Party. Soon after 8 o'clock the band played Prof. Fanclulli's march, “The Great Republic, and the attention of the audience was :t- tracted to the entrance of a distinguished party of people at the opposite end of the hall. The Vice President of the United States, Commissioner Ross, Representative Conn of Indiana and the members of the committee on reception, conststing of Rich- ard Goodhart, John M. Kline, N. Bunch, James S. Davis, B. T. Doyle, G. J. L. Fox- well, H. P. Godwin, Alfred Hebrard, G. F. Johnston, D. B. MacLeod, A. F. Medford, Theo. W. Noyes, J. W. Thompson and H. G. Wagner, then marched down the main aisle and took seats upon the stage. ‘The rendition by the band of the overture to Rossini's illiam Tell” followed the address of the Vice President. The entire overture was played, and the audience gave enthusiastic demonstrations of their apprecia*ion of the music, and called for an encore, which was rendered in the form of a popular medley. This was not enough, however, and the band had to repeat “Dixie” nd “Yankee Doodle” before*| further speechmaking would be allowed. The address of Representative Conn closed the oratorical feature of the evening, but the audience remained for some time to hear the concert of the Marine Band, which effectively rendered the following program: Descriptive fantasie, “The Voy- age of Columbus,” Fanciulli; waltz, ‘“Vien- na Beauties,” Strauss; descriptive fantasie, “In the Clock Store,” Orth; patriotic song, “My Country, "Tis of Thee.” Commissioner Ross. rd Goodhart, the chairman of tee on reception, then stepped to the front of the platform and in a few, brief resented Mr. John W. Ross, Com- rt of the Di: Mr. Ross’ ress. was greeted with a round of ap- a ood before the audience. He n asked to introduce Vice President on, and in performing this duty he orous, appropriate speech.

In so honoring our capital you have Leen rc by considerations of peculiar it nd importance. In its immediate vicinity the great founder of your order pei formed his life's work, having for hi and his worthy descendants, who are proteg: r order, the respect and es- | teem of all our people. Aside from these | considerations, which are of interest to every Knight of Pythias, I doubt not tuat your choice fell upon Washington because it is your capital. “You are the joint proprietors of every street and avenue upon which you may march; of every public park which you may | Visit; of every government building which you may inspect and in which your public servants make or execute the laws of the United States. It is fitting that you should come to your national headquarters, located in the city which bears the great name of its founder, end determine by actual view whether the federai agents charged with its | that more than one-half of the real estate values in the District of Columbia belong to the United States of America, and whether | calling: ness, that whatever adds to its beauty and dignity benefits not merely the people who happen to reside at this chosen seat of fed- eral authority, but is demanded also by the American people, who intend that their cap- ital shall correspond to and be in keeping with the majestic domain of which it is the political center. “Whatever reasons may have actuated you, I say with all earnestness that our en- tire people deem ‘themselves honored by your choiv2 of our city as your place of meeting. Very many of our busiest and most influential citizens have worked in harmofiy with the worthy members of your local organization to 1a this occasion memorable in your annals. They have gladly given their time and thelr expe- rience to this cause by reason ef their re- spect for your organization, and in order that the high standard of hospitality which has always characcerized the capital might not be lowered. Broad Tenets of the Order. “You are rapresentatives of a contingent in territorial extent. Vast as is the ex- panse of the republic from which you have assembled it is not more broad than the tenets of your order. In this period of financial trouble, when we share with the civilized world the embarrassment of uni- versal business depression, with accom- paniments of suffering among worthy peo- ple and occasional violence aad lawlessness, it is well that citizens belonging to an or- ganization which knows no sectionalism, which is devoted to the principles of law and order, whose members have implicit faith in ‘the government of the people, should assemble at the capital and renew their fealty to the Constitution and the laws of the United States. “When your order first arrived at ma- turity the fires of the civil war were stiil smoldering; there was still needed for a renewed and complete reunion of the states the restoration of fraternal love and affec- tion between the people of the north and the people of the south. The wonderful growth of the order of thé Knights of Pythias in the states then lately in conflict united the men who had met upon fields of battle in the mystic ties of a common brotherhood, and the widespread adoption of the principles of friendship, charity and benevolence was a most potent factor in the establishment of a reunion of the hearts of the American people. “You are more than welcome to the Dis- trict of Columbia; all that it contains of national and historic interest 1s your Pleasure. You may, perhaps visit the Sol- Giers’ Home, where the veterans of the army of the United States pass their last days in peace and comfort. From that vantage ground of observation you may be- hold, as in a picture, framed by the Poto- mac and Anacostia, the home of the federal sovernment. Beyond the great river you will see the last resting place of the honor- ed dead at Arlington. You will parade up- on that historic avenue over which suc sive Presidents of the United States have passed to their inaugural ceremonies. “May all that you see that is typical of your countiy’s greatness among the powers of the earth, all that is illustrative of the patriotic heroism of our mighty dead in- spire in your hearts a higher love of our free institutions, and a firmer resolve to maintain in its integrity the heritage of a government of the people.” Vice President Stexenson, A demonstration of hearty welcome sig- nalized the appearance of Vice President Stevenson. Bowing his acknowledgments, The Vice President's Speech. Mr. Stevenson spoke as follows: “The pleasing duty has been assigned me of extending to the representatives of the order of Knights of Pythias a welcome to the nation’s capital. I may be pardoned for detaining you for a moment before this formal welcome is extended. Your commit- tee did well in selecting the city of Wash- ington as the place for this great convoca- tion. In this selection you: have honored yourselves as well as the great city in which you are assembled. “This is no ordinary gathering. It Is literally the coming together of honored representatives of a great brotherhood, from every state and sectgon of the Ameri- can Union. It is, indeed, an honor to any city to claim as its guests the knightliest representatives of an grder whose mem- bership falls little short of half a million; whose iiving faith is the beautiful legend of Damon and Pythias, and whose shibbo- leth fs ‘friendship, benevolence and charity.’ “And the greatest of these is charity.’ “As it is not my good fortune to be a member of this great fraternity I cannot know to whom future ages will do honor as its founder, but that he ‘builded wiser than he knew’ Is evidenced by the fact that what our eyes now behold is the growth of less than a third of a century. I trust I di- vulge no secrets—which would bring upon my poor head the dread penalty—when I say that I have heard that at each regular assemblage of the Knights of Pythias the official inquiry is made, ‘Does any one know of a sick brother or of a brother's family in distress? If this be true, then even the wayfaring men may know from whence came the inspiration that formulated the ritual and founded the order. I cannot but believe that in illustrating In deeds the scblime ienets of your order your inspira- tion is that of the new commandment ‘that ye love one another.’ Is it too much to say that truly this is ‘religion in aetion?’ “I repeat, you did well to select for your biennial convocation the nation’s capital, the city that bears the honored name of the facner of his country. “Coming from and representing every state it is meet that your assembling be at the political center of this great nation. It beots not that your abiding place be in the southland, near the great chain of lakes or ‘where rolls the Oregon,’ you owe al leglance to but one flag; you are citizens of a common country. In your beautiful ritual there is no place for aught that savors of stionalism or of strife. Whatever troublous times the rolling years may bring forth to the state, who ran doubt that the knightly men of this great brotherhood will stand as adamant for the preservation and perpetuation of all that is best in our civilization, of all that it has cost centuries of tirel en- deavor to achieve?

When the last strains of the overture to William Tell had died away Representa- tive C. G. Conn made an eloquent and effee- tive address of welcome on behalf of the Knights of Pythias of this city. He said: “It would be my pleasant duty to wel- come you to Washington in behalf of the thian Knights of the District of Colum- bia were {t not for the sad intelligence of the death of the distinguished chief ex- ecutive of the Supreme Lodge of the Knights of Pythians, Past Supreme Chan- cellor George B.

For that reason the Supreme Lodge, as a mark of respect to their la- mented commander, refrained from attend- irg in a_body the ceremonies here this evening.

It was founded at a time when civil strife caused our common country to offer her best and bravest sons to the God of Battle, and notwithstanding the many difficulties the order has sinc? encountered, it has steadily Increased in membership, until its popularity has become a source of pride to the general public. The fraternal ties that bind the Pythian brotherhood together do not alone consist of mysterious signs, secret obligations and ritual work, but are in reality an exemplification of the true prin- ciples. of brotherly love—principles that prompt each individual knight to assist in rescuing the fallen, watch tenderly at the bedside of the sick, offer consolation to the emicted, and zcalously care for the desti- tute fow and orphan. “The parable of the good Samaritan fully illustrates the mois of the Pythian knight in dissemin# good and advanc- ing the. standard of morality.

Whe Pythian Sisters. “And right here let me also speak for the Pythian Sisters of Washington. Every word uttered in behalf of the Pythian Knights has been coupled with the thought of a similar welcome in the interest of the Pythian Sisters. But with that thought has come the fear that language of mine would prove inadequate to express the wo- manly sentiment of their sincere greeting. We owe much to the Pythian Sisters of Washington, for their connection with the order has been of great service in arrang- ing for your welcome. Men may unite in semi-military bodies, organize benevolent societies, and otherwise band themselves together for mutual profit and pleasure, but without the co-operation of the gentler sex they would fail in carrying out their pur- pose of benefiting either themselves or the world at large. Woman's purity, tender- ness, faith and love of the good and beau- tiful softens the grosser nature of man and prepares the way for nobler and more en- during efforts. Her gentle ways exert an influence that leads and uplifts without re- sorting to argument or persuasion, and her presence as a co-laborer drives away base desires and prevents unworthy conduct. Officers, representatives and friends, unite with me in doing honor to the Pythian Sis- ters of our order. Let your theughts turn to them in thankfulness for the good they have accomplished in widening the field of Pythian labors, and remember as you meet them here that they also had much to do with preparing your reception. “Your visit to Washington will mot be entirely one of pleasure, although we, your hosts, prefer to have it so. Your dutics as officers and representatives of the Supreme Lodge, the miltary discipline of the Uni- form Rank and other functions of a na- tional encampment will demand a great part of your time and attention. The rapid growth of the Pythian order and its mar- velous extension to every land where civ- ilization lends its enlightening influence have added to your responsibilities and in- creased the burdens of your labors. But the honor you enjoy is also great. To be the trusted officer or representative of so worthy an order is an honor to be prized above the preferments of either political or military life. You some here not for sel fish gain, but for that high and lofty pu pose of benefiting your fellow man. _. Pythian Principies. “Throcgh the teachings of the Pythian erder you have learned that to touch the heart with kindness opens a wellspring ef generous impulse and inspires the mind with better and purer thoughts. And now we will leave you to the performance of your duties, knowing that in your keeping the welfare of the Pythian order wiil not suffer, avd that the true interpretation of Pythian principles will be made clear to all who cre in doubt. “Once again, in the name of the Pythian Knights of Washington, I give you a hearty welcome. Accept our hospitaiity as you do the sunlight of heaven. Let it warm your hearts and fill your lives with brightness, and when your labors are over, when your mission here is ended, we trust you will carry away from Washington pleasant memories of your visit, kind thoughts of your resident brethren and a good impres- sion of our capital city. Supreme officers, represel.tatives,knights and friends, I thank you.” —— Broke a Trotting Record.
