Elaborate Preparations for the Knight Templar Conclave, The Nebraska Battallion to go via the Rock Island. Probably the Last Conclave of the Kind, One week from yesterday the Ne- braska Battsllion of Knights Templar will leave this city for Chicago to at- tend the trisnuial grand conclave, which begins Avgust 16. The battal- lion will be about two hundred strong, and will irclude about fifty ladies. Some delay has occurred in makiog the arrangemsnuts in regard to the route, but it is understood now that that question haa been settled, and all other preliminaries have been previ- ously arranged. The Northwestern railway offered to run them through by aspecial train of day conches, infitteen hours, leaving Council Bluffls about 6 m. on Sunday, and arriving in Chicago at 9 p. m., or they would leave at 10 a. m. Sunday with a train of Pullmans aud reach the Lake City on Monday at 10 o'clock. The Rock lsland offered to do any other road would do and as the Tvanhoe Commandery of Council Bluffs determined Thursday night to go by the latter route and the Grand Commandery of Towa will take their triin at Des Moines, it was thought best to decide upon that route. TIvauhoe wanted to take a Pullman train and run as above but as the Nebraska Knights determined upon the fast, day special, it is Jikely that they will change their minds and Nebraska and Towa will go into Chica- go on the same train. The Lincoln Knights favored the C., B. & Q. and whatever the B. & M., via Plattsmouth, and to obviate any difficalty in this regard the Union Pacitic offered to bring them up via the 0. & R. V. on the same terms. The sub-committee which had charge of transportation was composed of Hen. E. K. Long, of this iy, and S, Owen, of Lin- coln. As stated the Nebraska Knights do 10t go in under the name of any commatdery, but simply as & battallion, under the direction of the officers of the and commander; The roster sent in to Chica; 31, included 17 above on July names, while over a dozen have since been added, and the Falls City commandery, which will undoubtedly send ils quots, yet re- mains to be heard from. The tick are good for thitty dags, but it is probable that (he main budy will leave Chicago on tte return trip Friday morning, as the conclave terminates The headquasters of the battallion in Chi- cag> will be the Gardiner house. WESTERN KNIGHTS. its session Thursday evenin The Knights Templar, of California, to the number of five hundred, will leave San Francisco by a special train on_the afiernoon of August 10, and will arzive in Omaha en_route to the triennial conclave go, on the afternoon cf W. Hirche. A ., of the Burlington road, went west a_ few days ago to roturn with them, and will tike them on to Chicago. On the evening beforo leaving San Fravcisco, a gratd standard which was made in the east will be con- secrated iv public hall. This standard will be cmificent affair, six feet high hy five wide, embroi d and worked up in the richest style. The ceremony «f consecration as_ specially provided is very imposing. Al the Knights of the state have been re- quested to be present at the ceremony and many witl undoubtealy attend. The price for each passenger to Chicago and return is fixed at §116, with sleepers and meals extra. The price for eleepers both ways will be $32,and if two occupy one berth half price will be charged. Tickets will be good for the return trip at any time within ninety daye,s0 opportunity will be given for a couple cf mouths’ stay or travel in the eastern states. The railread companies esst of Chicago will grant tickets at excursion rates to Knights that may wish to visit the esstern cities befere their return to this coast. This is the first halt fare from $an Francisco to Chicago, The & Q., wo understand, will run ial train from the transfer. PREPAEATIONS FOE THE PAGEANT. The department ot preparation that will no doubt yield the greatest pleas- ure to the greatest number during the Knights Temyplar conclave and carni- valis that of decoration. The arrange- ments for transporting guests, lod ing them, entertaining them, and iug for them generally, are in a man- ner of hospitality that confessedly will be unsurpassed, but the popular heart, according to all precedent, will bo stirred by nothing so profoundly asby the beautiful in form and color, in devices that charm the eye in them- selves and thrill the eou!, perhaps, by loftiness or sacredness of association, and in spectacular ffects preseated to the least observant sight-scer that are impossible clsewhere. The process of ingenious planning has been g a the work progresses rapidly and local commanderies vieing w each other as to which shall achieve the wost artisticand beautiful results. A score of grand triumphal arches will bs erected in close succes ion, one at the intersection of cvery cross street, from Adams south to near 22d. Block afterblock,the airy and yet eub- stantial structures will embody beauty and grace all alike in general out- line snd construction, but all won- derfully varied in detail, no two being slike in prevailing color. Each will spring from a small thicket of foliage, plants and evergreens, not less than 2000 evergreens baving been received. The ground dimensicns of each will be the eame, the entire equares at the points of intersection being cov- ered. In height, all the arches but | one—the grand arch of review in the | center of the line—will be forty-five feet, and the last will be fifty. All four faces of each arch will be *‘treat- ed."” thenorth and south ones, the procession, of course, more elab- crately, while the roof in every case will be a lace work of garlande, like vines trailing over the lattice cf a summer house. The arches include the * memm‘ul arch,” “‘arch of wel- come,” etc., with each statereprese ed in'the course of the march, Ne- braska, California, Kansas, Colorado | and Wyoming have their arch, largely | of green, at Twenticth streot. THE LaST. | | facing | can be arranged in other cities that none will have the desire to_emulate tne success of the Chicago Knights. Agaio, the fact that the occasion is the meeting of a legislative body,with important work on its hands, is lost sight of in the gorgeous pageantry thrown around it, and the work seri- ously interfered witk. San Francisco will endeavor to se- cure the next conclave, and it is the general opinion that she will get it, and as it will of course be lmpouslblu to get o great & number of knights and visitors there, the absenca of such extensive “r]omue” a8 have character- ized the conclave at Cleveland and this at Chicago, will be comparatively unnoticed. THE PRIZEE. Among the prizes tobe awarded is | dancing, ote. abeautiful sword to be given the best drilled commanding. The blade of the sword is_of the finest steel, and etched in relief with numerous devices of the kuightly order, and the in scription: ~ “First Prize, Chicago, 1830.” The hilt is & masterpiece of the goldsmith’s work, designed in a succession of Templar emblems, to be set with diamonds,rabiesand emeralds. At the gusrd of the blade blade the hilt represents Constantine’s tent and dream. The arms terminate in triangles richly embossed with cross and crown, and surmounted by a Kuight in full armor in the second movement of drawing his sword, and forms the body of the hilt. The sheath is solid nickle, embossed and relieved with gold ornamentations and appropriate emblems. The value of the sword is £600, and will become the upconditional property commandery winning it Standard, ter three successful frials. The 5¢ and 10¢ Eating Room, 1417 Douglas street, is the plice to get your meals. —The much-looked-for cpen letter to P. W. Hitcheock is crowded out to- day for want of space, but will appear Monday.

YATes, —Considerable of a sensation was created at midnight Saturday night by a telephone dispatch received at police headquarters from the night watchmen of the government corral. Ta answer to the call, four policemen proceeded toa camp of five horse traders near the corral, and there ar- rested four of the men far outraging a woman who was taking care of the camp, and committed them to the city jail, together with the woman who was held as a witness, Yester- day afternoon the prisoners were taken before Judge Hawes, who ques- tioned them all closely concerning the matter. Tt appeared from the woman's own story that there was not the elightest foundation for the charge of rape, but that it had been a simple case of prostitution, and the men re- fusing to pay for the illicit commerce the woman resorted to law for her money. - One of the men says that he came home from town and found her entertaining a tramp, which so en. raged him that he drove them out of camp with a neck yoke. Three of the prisoners are brothers. The party, who claim to be from Plattsmouth, few weeks ago thero was a general ward movement all along the lin The grading jobs were let on the exten- sion west to Lake Cityin Calhoun coun- ty, and on the branch north to Web- ster City. It was given out that the work north of Webster City t» Al- gona would be pushed at once, that other branches were to be buiit from this Algenaline. Then the men who were workiug up aid north of Algona were called in, and as far as can be learned no eradinghas been let beyond Webster City. Algona line was having its boom,a con- tract was let conditionaily for grading from Lake City foriy miles southwest to Harlan, This Harlan Jine is head- ed directly toward Council Bluffs, and the plan seems to have been to push on to that point. But within the past fow days thers has been a check- ing up all along the line. The engi- neers sent to cross secticn the work en the Lake City and Harlan line were recalled, and just now it looks as if there would bs no grading wes’ of Lake City this season. From the best iaformation attaina- ble it seews that there were negotia- tions in progress between the North- western and the Milwaukee whereby the latter would come into possession of the Blair track betweon Cedar Rap- ids and Council Bluffs. The North- western wou!d meantime have com pleted iis Toledo branch to Council Blufts, and so could epare the Blair line This was the easi- est solution of the riddle. But re- cently the Milwaukee has been look- ing over a new route of its own to Council Bluffe. Tt {his line looked over can be built with bonds that will draw less interest than the rental of the Blair line would amount to, then of course {he new line will be built.
