An Interesting Scene at the Hall on Seventh Street—Parade of the Uniform Rank. The celebraticn yesterday of the seventy- sixth anniversary of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows was an event of more than ordinary interest and importance to this great fraternal organization. All day the flag of the order was flung to the treeze from the flagpole of the principal null of the order, on 7th street northwest, and the windows and portico decorated with the emblems and banners of the Patriarchs Militant. The program consisted of a reception to the officers of the Grand Lodge, Grand Encampment and command- ent and staff, Patriarchs Militant. By placing the seats about the sides of the hall a space was left in the cen- ter for the grand of- ficers and their es- cort. After a parade through the streets, participated in hy the members of the Pa- ; triarchs Militant, commanded by Wil-. liam T. Galliher, de- partment command- er, and headed by the Canton Potomac Drum Corps, the chevaliers formed in double column and Theodore Mend. escorted the grand officers to their seats. Every chair in the hall held an oveupant, and many persons were standing when the exercises of the evening began. The open- ing feature was a sword drill, and at its conclusion the master of ceremonies, Mr. W. H. Stansbury, introduced the “Wid Boys’ Quartet,” coosiedny, of Messrs. David H. Clark, R. M. McKee, €. Johnston, who ren- dered “Beautiful Bells.” The other gram were songs by <\\“ the Metropolitan WEES choir, Mr. R. ASM. Brabing, Mr. J. Es ‘Taylor and Mr. J. H. Cathell, and a recita- Yen Jones, all of which proved highly enjoy- able. During the ren- George W. Uline. a reception was held by the grand officers, and at its conclusion refreshments were served. Then :he floor affair was one of the most successful in the history of the order. ‘The celebration was arranged by a com- ards, Allan, Ward.and Mussex. Among the guests of honor were: Grand Master Theo- Grand Master Rich- ard H. Sorrell, Grand Warden Thomas J. H. Piayter and Geo. numbers of the pro- B. Bond, Miss Marie Y,tion by Grand Ward- dition of the program was given up to dancing. Altogether the mittee comprising Messrs. Bennett, Rich- dore Mead, Deputy. Jones, Grand Secre- William R. Grand Treas P. Allan of the Grand Lodge, and George W. Uline, grand..pa- © triarch; D. W. Keck, ~ grand high ‘priest; Wm. T. Galliher, Andrew Turnbull, grand senior warden; H. C. Hazard, grand junior warden; Samuel E. Boyce, grand scribe; John H. Seiffert, grand treasurer, and Joseph Burroughs, grand representative of the grand onca-np- ment, and Wm. T. Galliher, department commander. Odd Fellows. will recognize in’ the three pictures herewith presented the faces of three well-known and popular members of the order. Theodore Mead, grand master of the Grand Lodge, is an Odd Fellow of long standing, and has a wide circle of friends and acquaintances in the order. George W. Uline, grand patriarch of the Grand En- campment, while a young man, is one of the most earnest workers for the good of the order, and has its interests warmly at heart. Wiliam T. Galliher, department ccmmander of the Patriarchs Militant, is a popular Washingtonian, well known in bvsiness circles, and who takes interest in the uniformed branch, of the order. Condition of the Order. ‘The condition of the order at large, ac- cording to the report of the grand secre- tary of the Sovereign Grand Lodge, pre- sented at the last session of that body, was as follows: [PRE [me Grand Lodges... Grand Eneampiments. Subordinate Lodges. . Subordinate Enea: Rebekah Lodges. Lodge InitiattoUi Eneampment Initiations. Lodge Members... Encampment Members. Hebekah Members. Total Revenue. ... To the above the District of Columbia, which is quite,amal], when pared to the jurisdictions of Pennsylvania, New York, ete., contributed in relief, $15,507 .36 during the past twelve months. ‘The present executive officer of the Grand Lodge is Theodore Mead of the Grand Encampment, George W. Uline and commandant of the Pa- triarchs Militant, Maj. Wm. T. Galliher. The grand representatives to the Sovereign Grand Lodge are Fred A. Stier, William P. Allan at.d Joseph Burroughs. At the in- spection of the Battalion Patriarchs Mili- tant Maj. Gallther announced the appoint- ment on his staff of William P. Allan, chaplain, with the rank of captain. It has been clearly demonstrated that the largest hall of tne order in this city is not suffi- cient to accommodate all the members when assembled on such an occasion as the one just celebrated. Many members were compelled to leave, not gaining entrance, and it is expected that the result will be the erection of a hall suitable in size and in necessary modern appointments for the needs of the order. At the last session of the Soverel; Grand Lodge an effort was made to have the headquarters of the or- der established in this city, where it should be, and the matter remains undecided un- til the session to be held in Atlantic City in September next. aS ANACOSTIA, Mr. R. H. Jordan, the well-known evan- gelist of Anacostia, who almost unaided has succeeded not only in erecting a com- modious Methodist Episcopal Chapel at Congress Heights, but in collecting there a large and prosperous congregation con- nected with which are an excellent Sunday school, missionary society, Christian En- deavor Society and other kindred organiza- tions, will tomorrow go to Silver Hill, Md., to organize a Sunday school at that place. The committee appointed by the Hills- dale Citizens’ Association to co-operate with a committee of the Anacostia Citizens’ Association, for the purpose of having the free delivery system extended to those places, met last night, All the members, Messrs. James L. Johnson, John H. Dale and Robert Waring, were present, and the various data asked for by the first assist- ant postmaster general was arranged. It is understocd that further steps in the mat- ter will be taken at the regular meeting of the association Wednesday night next,when a large amount of business will, it is ex- pected, be transacted. A meeting of the drtVers of the Wash- ington and Anacostia Raflway Company was held at Haines’ Hall, Anacostia, at an early hour this morning, and steps taken in accordance with the terms of agreement made between President Griswold and themselves, when the recent strike was settled, to ascertain how the receipts of the company for the current month will compare with those for the corresponding month of last year, and if there shall be a surplus in favor of the former to arrange an equitable plan for a pro rata division among the employes. AMERICANS RELEASED. The Two Sailors Who ‘Were Arrested Near Santingo, Cuba. A epecial to the New York World from Santiago, Cuba, April 25, says: Two Amer- ican seamen who had been imprisoned here since February 23 were released today. They are August Bolton and Gustav Rich- elieu. The government; authorities found them in a small boat near the coast under circumstances which aroused suspicion that they had landed revolutionists on the island somewhere near here, and were re- turning to the point they started from, pre- sumably to bring more revolutionists over. The men explained that they belonged to an American vessel which was then at a port in Hayti, and they had rowed across simply for their own pleasure.
