THELADIES’COMMITTEE ee Only nineteen days will elapse before the nobles of the Mystic Shrine come in legions to take possession of the nation’s capital city, and they will be days replete with ac- tivity, not only in Washington, but all over this big Union and Canada. Not only the Shriners themselves, but many others in- terested, will be thus animated. The ses- sions of the Imperial Council, which are to be held in the Columbia Theater, May 22 and 23, will be of such importance to the order that they will attract, as they al- ays do wherever held, thousands of no- many of whom take their wives and hers with them. This throng will reach r 20,00) persons, who will be immediate- interested in the council work. “rs are proverbially popular peo- their friends like them so well where circumstances do not prevent, flock with the nobility wherever it crowd will come, too, and then nother. The lowest rate ever ilroads of this country and reund trip to Washington from all points, e railroad officials state that the in- s all point to an immense throng ons not directly ceremonies. Interest is further shown in the way the railroad representatives are striv- ing to secure the business, both by exten- sive advertising of the occasion and per- efforts as well. Greatest in Shrine History. Chairman F. H. Thomas of the executive committee having the arrangements in charge finds his mail filled every day with letters showing the wide interest taken. These selected at random give some idea of this: Fred C. Ewing writes from Greenwood Springs, Col.: “Il have just returned from Leadville trying to work up a crewd to go to Washington, and have succeeded in get- ting a number of nobles to join our pil- grimage from El Jebel. It is the consensus of opinion that this meeting will be the largest ever held.” Henry Hardy, past potentate of Tangier Temple. Omaha, writes: “I want to congratulate you upon the very complete manner in which you have brought this session of the Imperial Coun- cil before the nobility. If your notices are an indication of the general arrangements we can look forward to the greatest ses sion in the history of the Imperial Council. Banguet at Riggs House. The banquet to the Imperial Council will take place at the Riggs House the evening of May 22, and will be a notable event. About guests will participate, and the menu and decorations will be of a sumptu- ous character. The banquet will begin af- ter the imperial potentate and the repre- sentatives ¢ sing the council have viewed the s be erecte Ivania avenue, oppo- site the Wh The parade will be novel in the history of Washington, inas- much as it will be composed entirely of no- s and wear. ve of the Mystic to the music of nu- merous t . through brilliantly illumin ted streets and avenues, while special dis plays of aerial fireworks and unique pieces will be made at several points, cluding the west front of the Capitol, the south front of the treasury, and at 17th street and Pennsylvania avenue. msidering Bids. THe important question of awarding the contract for the illumination and the fire- works will be settled tomorrow night at a meeting of the committee on decorations, n the subcommittee, which has been lering the proposals received, will its report. The bidders include the leading chnic firms of the country, and the competition for the work has been keen and animated. 12,000 Mark Passed.

Smith, formerly, company clerk, was chosen second lieutenant; William T. Place, formerly second lieutenant, first leutenant, and T. V. Walker, formerly first lieutenant, captain at an election held Tues- day evening at the armory by the members of Company C, 2d Battalion, District Na- tional Guard. The meeting was called by general order No. 30, for the purpose of electing company officers and discussing matters of current importance. Maj. Anton Stephan presided. The election was considered by all inter- Ferris ested to be most satisfactory. Ferris N. Smith, who was promoted from the ranks to the grade of second lieutenant. is a son of Representative S. W. Smith of Michigan, and is a student at the Central High School. He is highly recommended by instructors and acquaintances as an accomplished young man, and the officers of the guard the opinion that he will prove to be t and capable officer. The promotion of Lieut. T. V. Walker to the captaincy was also favorably com- mented upon in militia circles. Mr. Walker has been prominent in the post office as chief of a division, and commanded Com- pany I of the guard In Cuba during the war with Spain. Under his command it is ex- pected the company will improve in many ys. The election of Second Lieut. Wm. T.F to the first Heutenaney was greeted with general satisfaction, for he has always shown himself to be a capable officer. In the near future the officers-elect will be examined by a board composed:of commis- sioned officers of the guard as to their phys- Jcal and mental qualifications. If they suc- cessfully pass they will be commi and assigned to their company for di ee Hotel Arrivals. Raleigh—F. W. Farwell, Chicago; H. C. Barnum, Geo. H. Shibley, New York; F. M.

It is perfectly and completely cooked at the factory and can be served at an instant’s notice, either with rich cold cream or with hot milk if a hot dish is desired. When milk or water are used, a lttle sugar should be added, but when cold cream is used alone the natural grape sugar, which can be seen glistening on the granules, 1s sufficlently sweet to satisfy the pal- ate. This grape sugar is not poured over the granules, as some people think, but exudes from the granules In the process of manufacture, when the starch of the grains is changed from starch to grape sugar by the process of manufacture. ‘This, in effect, Is the frst act of digestion; there- fore, Grape-Nuts Food is predigested and is most perfectly assimilated by the yery weakest stomach.
