SUITS CLEANED-— WORKMEN ARE OUT IN FORCE Bession of Grand Lodge Opens with a Large Number in Attendanoe. CHANGES LIKELY IN THE ORGANIC LAW Grand Master Workman Narvis and Grand Recorder Rehkoft mously Re-Blected for Another Term. Grand Master Workman Will M. Narvis in his annua] report read at the opening session Tuesday morning of the Tweaty- wixth session of the lowa grand lodge of the Anclent Order of United Workmen made three important recomirendations: That the sessions of the grand lodge be ! held blennially instead of aunually; that subordinate lodges elect officers annually instead of every six months, as at present; that the grand recorder be pald a commen- surate salary and the question of amount of clerical assistance be provided for by a separate appropriation under the super- vieon of the flnance committee, The adoption of blennial sessions was recommended as an economical pollcy. The annual sessions of the grand lodge since 1894 have cost the order for per diem and mileage alone an average of nearly $3,000, and with the other expenses the average cost has been at least $3,500, After giv- Ing figures to prove this statement Grand Master Workman Narvis sald in his report: It we were to change from the annual to biennial sessions we could advantageously use this amount in the employment of two more fleld men, which ought to mean an increase In our revenues—beneflciary and general—besides the great benefit in ever; gther way. The opportunities are now af. forded us to push forward, and we should avall ourselves of every chance to advance the work of the order. The tendency-of all fraternal Institutions of this character is toward blennial or triennial wessions, for the reason that it affords the opportunity to use the funds pald for expenses of an- nual sessions for development of fleld work, which to mind I8 one of the most'important matiters to be taken up at this session. I therefore recommend t the question of biennial sessions be ca fully” considered at this session, and that it be made the policy of this grand lodge, There Is less of a tendency to political work in this order than any other order that 1 know of, and I belleve a change of this kind can be made without any friction whatever. Advantage of Longer Terms, Regarding his recommendation that subordinate lodges elect their officers for one year in place of for six months, the grand master workman said that if officers were elected for a year Instead of the shorter term they would take pains to commit the ritualietic work and would show more Interest and zeal In the lodge meetings to the end that the lodges would be greatly benefited as well as the order at_large. 3 While a number of the delegates are fa- vorable to the annual sessions, which they believe tend to revive Interest and conduce to fraternal feelings by the frequent re- unions as the sesslons are, it s apparent that many indorse the recommendation of the grand master workman mnd that f vorable action will be taken on it. There also appears to be no doubt that the recs ommendation as to the subordinate lodges electing officers annually instead of half yearly will be adopted. Under the present system the grand re- corder recelves a ealary of $2,600 a yean, but out of thie he has to pay all the cler- lcal assistance in hls office, which with the of the condition of the order in thelr ju- risdictions. In the evening the members of the grand lodge attended the meeting of the local subordinate Jodge at which a large clase of candidates was initiated. Following the meeting the visitors were guests of honor at a reception and banquet given in Royal Arcanum hall by the members of the De- gree of Honor. Program for Today. State Senator A. S.

WIFE MUST RELY ON SELF Does Not Look for Approaching Train and Damage Olaim is Denied. SMALLPOX IS AN EXPENSIVE VISITOR City of Des Mol Spends Almost $100,000 in Fighting the Disease During the Past Year—Indian Finds aluable Pearls. (From a Staft Correspondent.) DES MOINES, May 14.—(Special.)—The supreme court convened today for the May term, with all the judges present, but a rather small attendance of the prominent lawyers of the state. A law class of thirty was turned over to the bar commission for examination for admittance to the bar. The court rendered a number of decisions and commenced the bearing of oral arguments in others. An Interesting case decided was one from Page county, in which a verdict for dam- ages was obtalned by Sarah and W. H. Wiltong. They were struck by a train on the Omaha & St. Louis rallroad and in- Jured. The testimony showed that Wolfong stopped his horses just before crossing the track and looked up and down the track to see It a traln was coming, but it was Just at a cut in the road and he falled to see a coming train which was late and on which the whistle was out of order. Buits were brought by both for damages and verdicts secured. The eupreme court re- versed the case as to the wife and sustained the lower court as to the husband, the sole point at issue being whether or not the duty of the wife as to looking for herself is the same as for the husband. The court held that the doctrine of imputed negli- gence as between husband and wife which presumes that the wife is in the care of the husband and has a right to rely on him has been repudiated in this court and that she was bound to the same degree of care that would be required of her husband in looking out for herself. On this theory she cannot recover, because she failed to look for herself to see whether the train was coming. The following are the decisions of the court as rendered today: Samuel Briles, appellant, against Sarah H. Goodrich et al; Hamilton county, Judge W eaver; action on contract; affirmed. Edwin' Carter et al, appellants, against I I. Nicol; lowa county, Judge Wade; for- feitures ori sale of Intoxicating liquors; af- firmed, W. W.

Welfon, against Omaha & St. Louls Railway, appel- lant; Page county, Judges Green and Thor- nell;’ actlon for ‘damages for personal in. ury; reversed as to first plaintiff and af- rmed as to second. Patrick F. Quinn against Prudential In- surance | Company, appellant; Dubuque county, Judge O'Donnell; damages on ace count of libel; reversed. T. H. Bacon against John Early Susnn Stoner, appellants; Polk Judge Bishop; reversed. Enormous Cost of Smallpox. The city auditor of Des Moines is en- gaged in preparing a statement for pre- sentation to the city council showing the cost of the smallpox epidemic to Des Molnes the past year. He finds that nearly $100,000 was spenit in various ways In con- Beotion with ‘the epidemic. During the months of December, January, February and March last the city allowed bills in the sum of $24,000, all of which will have to go to judgment, as the city has not money with which to pay the bills. There are the sums spent previous to December which are being slowly paid out of the judgment fund, the expenses since that time, the unaudited bills, the cost of a smallpox hospital and various other mat- ters, bringing the total up to nearly $100,~ 000. This includes also a large sum spent by the county in furnishing provisions for those in quarantine. The city is now comparatively free from smallpox, thdugh for a long time there was at least 500 cases listeq with the au- thorities all the time. Only by incurring the great expense has the city been freed 80 quickly. Cost of State Wards. The state treasurer today pald out $100,- 696.46 on account of the state institutions. Of this sum $15,000 was for the construc tion of the Cherokee hospital and $2,874.09 for completing and furnishing the bullding, this latter sum being a part of an appro- priation made by the Twenty-ninth general assembly. Twenty thousana dollars, ap- proximately, was pald out for additional land at the Clarinda hospital, also by vir. tue of acts of the last general embly. Saddlery Men Hold Meeting.
