Men high in the order say that at what time or by whom Royal Arch Masonry, as @ separate rite, was introduced into the United States has not yet been settled. It has been frequently claimed that the first record of its existence in this country is fcund in St. Andrew’s Royal Arch Lodge, connected with St. Andrew's Lodge before mentioned, in the year 1769. This, how- ever, is held by many to be a mistake, as there was a chapter held as early as 1758 in Philadelphia, which is said to have been unquestionably the oldest distinct organiza- tion of Royal Arch Masons ever held on this) continent. e first convention to form a and chapter was held in ‘Masons’ Hall," Bos ton, Mass., October 24, 1797. The first meeting of the grand chapter after its or- ganization was held in Middletown, Conn. the third Wednesday of September, 1718, and the next meeting in Providence, R.1., the second Wednesday of January, 1709, when officers were elected for a term of seven years, bringing the third regular meeting down to 1806. The meeting place was Middletown, Conn., at which meeting the name of the organization was changed ty the “General Grand Royal Arch Chap- ter of the United States of America.” In consequence of a lapse in 1812 the next meeting was not held unti} 1816, at New York city, when for the first time there were representatives present from other than the New England states, including Maryland and South Carolina,and warrants were granted for chapters in North Caro- lina, Georgia, New Jersey and Ohio. The next meeting was held in 1819, and the next in 1826, after which the meetings were made trienntal. and have so continued down to the present time, with but one exception. = The organization continued to ercw, State after state being added to its juris- diction, the general prosperity being dis- turbed, of course, by the civil war. But fraternal relations were soon resumed after the war, and at present, as for some years past, forty-two grand chapters, in as many States and territories, are within the juris- diction, with about 3,000 subordinate chap- ters and a united membership of about 175,000,- besides subordinate chapters in China, Mexico, Central America and South America. Twice before only within the century has the General Grand Chapter met 1a this vicinity, both times in Baltimore. The first gathering was in 1832—the cholera year— when the date of meeting was changed on account of the cobaie eg that dread disease, and the second in 1871. General Grand High Priests.

Mr. Pierre Botkine, the Russian imperial delegate in the seal commission, arrived in the city last night. He is accompanied by Mrs. Botkine. They are at the Ariington.

After receiving the congratulations of the small gathering of reiatives and in- timate friends present, the couple left for a brief trip north. Miss Virginia Lammond left today for Philadelphia, where she will be the guest of Mrs. Ch: M. Southwell. Mr. Charles W. La Porte, only son of Mr. and Mrs. Willlam M. La Porte, and Miss Ada Eleanor Bailey were married last Wednesday, October 6, at Peoria, IL, at the home of the bride's parents, Mr. an Mrs. Josiah Fiske Bailey. It was a quiet wedding, owing to the illness of the bride's mother, and only the reiatives and most in- timate friends of the family were present. The house was tastefully decorated with autumn flowers, golden rod predominating. The bride wore a costume of white silk mull, and carried bride roses. A supper was served and the couple iett for Chicago and a trip north. The bride is a popular young lady who has been prominently iden- tified with Christian Endeavor and other church work. Mr. La Porte is president of the city Christian Endeavor Union, and has taken a prominent part in that work during his residence of three years in Peo- ria.

Their Spelling Determined by the Government Board. The board on geographic names has just rendered decisions determining the spell- ing of 149 geographic names, These in- clude a number in Alaska significant at this time in view of the Klondike excite- ment. Many variations of nomenclature for the same place are encountered, and the board’s action settles the uniform usage. As to Klondike, the decision is to speil it as given, and not Clondyke, Klondyke, Chandike, Chandik or Deer, Reindeer, Trondike, nor Thron Diuck. One of the lakes of the upper Yukon was named Le- barge by the Western Union telegraph ex- pedition, in 1868, after Mike Lebarge, a member of the exploring party. Late pub- lications have fallen into the error of spell- ing this Labarge, but the board adheres to the original form—Lebarge. There is a Le- barge river in Alaska. When Schwatka descended the Yukon in 1883 he named one of the lakes on its head- waters Lindeman, after Dr. Moritz Linde- man, now vice president of the Breme Geographical Society. This sometimes ap- Pears erroneously as Lindemann and Lin- derman. The board adopts Lindeman. One of the principal tributaries of the up- per Yukon is the Lewes river, named by Robert Campbell of the Hudson Bay Com- pany, about 1548. This is often miscalled Lewis, The inlet, river and village at the head of Lynn canal, which now appears in the newspapers almost daily under the form of Dyea, the starting point for the cverland route, is an Indian word which has ap- peared in many forms. Admiral Meade, in 1869, wrote it Tyya; Krause, in 1882, wrote it Dejah; Schwatka, in 183, Dayay; Dall, in 1883, Taiya. The board ado; Taiya. For the lake and river variously calied Hootaiinqua, or Hotalinga, or Tesiin-hina, or Teslin-too, or Teslin, the board adopts Teslin. The terminations “hina” and “toc” are said to mean river in different Indian dialects. An Indian village on the middle Yukon is called Nuklukayet. This has be: written in several forms, including the erroneous one, Tuklukyet. —_———_~-2.—______ Siam Makes Keparation. United States Minister Barrett, at Bangkok, has reported to the State De- partment by cable that he has met witi complete success in his effort to secure | GUTPKI reparation for the treatment accorded United States Vice Consul Kellett last spring by the local Siames« authorities. The government recalled to Bangkok the captain, lieutenant and four soldiers who participated in the affair, reprimanded them and suspended them for a long time. The viceroy of Chiangmai has been cau: tioned against a repetition of the trouble, and the Siamese government itself, Mr. Barrett cabled, would express regret at the occurrence. A Typewriter’s Promotion. Miss Mary A. Barnes, stenographer of the supervising architect of the treasury, kas been promoted from $1,000 to $1,200 a year. This is a recognition by the treasury of cxpert work, and will be extended to ee clerks who prove themsclves deserv- e+ Statue fer Tubal Cain.
