A Dis- | tinguished Brother Abroad. i Link---Tho Bl tly Pythians The Triple Mr Exc ston---Kni THE FREE MASONS, A DISTINGUISHED BROTHER | The London Freemason says edito- | rially: “‘Our distinguished brother, | the Lord Mayor, has opened o fund for the relief of many distressed ladies whom the failure of their ten- ants in Ireland to pay their rents (in many cases amounting to moral dishon- ty) has reduced to so low an ebb of poverty and distress that one ortwo, if not more, have had to apply for pa rochial relief. Weo wish, therefore, all success to the benevoient etforts of our brother, the call the attention of our readers to so proper and needful a fund. Indeed, the Grand Lodge, we venture to think, might fairiy grant THE REGULAR MEETINGS. There is considerable complaiut in that the regular meetings of the order are not as well attended as they should be.

THE BLAIR EXCURSION, On_Thursday evening nearly 100 0Odd Fellows of this city, including representa s from all the various lodges, made a visit to their brethren at Blair. Some fifteen ladies accom- panied the excursionists, aud the ride of an hour by rail was pleasantly spent in singing and social converse, At the Blair depot they were met by their entertainers, and preceded by their m No, the Omaha U. P. band, were escoried to the lodge, the com- fort of the ladies being provided for at the hotel. The exer- cises at the lodge room partook of a pleasantly social character. A num- ber of the Omaha brethren were called upon for specchies, among whom was that veteran Odd Fellow, John Evans, and Messrs. Billings, smev \'u.hnls, Rosewater, Livesy, auer and Bolln. Mr. M. G. McKoon made the hit of the evening in 4 poem of more than usual merit. Afterthe excrcises were concluded at the hall the breth- ren adjourned to the hotels where they were magnificiently entertained. Su' sequently a visit was paid to the hall where two hours were pleasantly pa ed in music and dancing. The follow. ing resolution was unanimously pessed: tesolved, That our sincere and hearty thanks are due and are hereby tendered to the Odd Fellows of Blair for the cordial reception and enter- tainment givon us upon this our visit among them. THE MANCHESTER UN The Manchester Unity Odd Iel- Jows of England reported January 1 1879, 484,958 members. It had on January 1, 1878, 480,870 on its rolls During 1879 it initiated and reinstated 27,796 persons, yet its net gain was only 4,088. Tn looking at its official reports for some years, some singular figures and facts present themselves, Its death rate for 1879 amounted to 1.43 per cent, there being 6,916 deaths reported. This rate being nearly 50 per cent higher than prevails in this country in our Fraternal Orders. To inquire the cause is natural, aud the solution seems to be that because the average age of the membership is far bolow that of this country, the mortality is greater, Here the membership = of the old societies average 40 years, but Price, Bpecific, #1.00 package, or slx pack ko fof 8,00, Adiiross al Sriors 0 hed BIMSON MEDICINE 00, Nos, 104 and 106 Main 8t.

Omaha, Irish Bogs Reclaimable, London Builde The total area of bogs in Treland is estimated at 2,830,000 acros, nearly | onc-seventh of the entive surfuce of the island. Of these bogs there are 6,000 of fat bog, the re- 1,000 acres being moun bog. Without entering into rical dotails—which, however, weo fully prepared to do- we may state as an uncontradicted fact, that nothing but well-directed labor is re- auired to convert the greater portic if not all, of that land, now waste, to the richest pasture or corn land, Drainage is the first, and in many cases the only, requisite to cffect this change. Burning the surface of the hogs, after draning, has in some places had an admirable result. Clay g the bog, by extracting the clay which lies below and forms an imper vious bed, and placing it as a top dressing, is the method which has been followed in other cases, as in our own Bridgwater levels, with the re- sult of turning vasts swamps into the richest pasture or hay-growing lands in the kingdom. Whichever of these methods be adopted there is the ro- | markable characteristic that only la- bor is required, No more capital is required than will suflice to feed the work people.

No moncy need be sunk in the bog. Tt is only requisite to apply to it that muscular force which s frewing itself into deeper poverty and misery by enforced idle- ness, That the proper modo of at- cking the bog is a matter for ready scientific determination every Wool- wich cadet is aware, What is requir- ed is simply enouch labor under tific direction; and when we re- flect that we want the work to be done, as well as the men to be em- ployed, we think no unnecessary strain would be put on convict labor as a so- lution to the problem, beyond T ed by mous bog. most n new No More Hord Times.
