The hall was crowded with Masons of different degrees who all joined in paying honor to the master of the grand lodge. Jo F. Barton sang “Mizpah” and “The Holy Clty,” during the evening and was heartily encored. Olaf E. Peflersen also played two much appreciated 'eelections om the flute, and I. M. Treynor sang ‘“Even Brav- est” and “The Fisher Malden.” Clyde J. Backus began the evening with a short address and introduced each member on the program. Matthew A. Hall, as ohe of St. John's spoke to “Greetings to Our Guest.” Carl E. Herring had the subject, “A Worthy Member of St. John's." Henry H. Wilson of Lincoln, an ex-grand master, spoke for the grand lodge, and Willlamson 8. Sommers made the last of the compli- mentary addresses, “Man and Mason."” Robert E. Evans was to have spoken also, but could not be present and Ernest Nordin was prevented by an injury to a finger from playing during the evening. Alfred M. Oleson, on behalf of the lodge, presented Judge Keysor the past master's jewel, with a few words of sincere sorrow at the departure of the honored brother Mason. Judge Keysor was much affected and dur- ing his response his voice frequently broke and tears stood in his eyes. He sald that he had been present when the last sad offices were pald to some departed com- rade, but bad never felt more solemn than &t the present time.

Roach treasurer. The assoclation has’ been formed with many objects In view, but principally in order to force the news agents to make satisfactory terms. Most of the news dealers in the city are members of the new organisation.

Among other things was the report of the committee appointed to formulate a plan of work for the union for this year, Mrs. Tilden being chairman. The recom- mendations included the continuation of the high school lunch, the continuation of the jail work, that the union should continue to contribute $6 per month to the suppert of the Tri rs’ Ald and that the industrial and temperance class: hould be contluued at the City mission on Tenth street.

Then, mc- cording to Dinan and otber strikers, Fauver wielded his club with some effect upon Dinan and a flerce encounter ensued, In which, according to the company side of the story, Dinan came off “second best.” Fauver's physical powers enabled him to defend himself with success, but Ish, who is somewhat diminutive as compared with his partner, is said tn have suffered from his underweight. - was gcruck in the face and a plece of hts eve glass, it is sald, driven into his flesh, causing a painful 1t not serious injury.

As to the warramt issued for Jack McKenna, we can simply say that McKenna was at home when the fight occurred.” Company Makes Statement. The legal department of the Union Pa- cific gives this version of the affair, after taking the statements of the guards: . “Two guards, Fauver and lsh, were re- lieved from duty at 6 o'clock and went out at one of the gates to go to their homes in the city. When they bad gone a shert dis- tance they found that they were being fol- lowed by a crowd of ten or fifteen strikers. Some of those in the crowd sald, ‘Now we have you outside the yards, we will see that you don't get back in. “Those In the crowd then assaulted the two guards, and a running fight ensued, during wkieh time the guards defended themselves the best they could. Fauver is s powerful man, and while he was struck and kicked several times and had bricks thrown at bim, he sustained no serious in- jury, and succeeded in beating off those who came to close quarters. As the fight progressed the police came up and arrested Fauver and one of the assailants. They were taken to the etation, and then the police went back to look for the others, ‘who of course had disappeared. “During the fight became separated trom Fauver and was badly beaten by sev- eral of the strikers. One of his eyeglasses was broken and the pleces driven into his eye, and he sustained other hurts, so that be required the care of a physician. “This is the ffth consecutive evening that employes of the company have been as- saulted by the pickets or by strikers near the yards. It seems that the sireets lead- ing to the yards are patrolled by pickets clear up town. The legal department of the railroad fis actively engaged in collecting all the evi- dence it can in this and other cases of a similar nature which are clalmed to have been enacted within the last five nights. “This thing must be stopped.” said of the officials. “Our guards are entitled to protection and they must and will re- celve it, if not one kind, then another. We have the statements of four or five men in the employ of the Unlon Pacific who have been subjected to assaults of the strikers and some of them have sustalned bad injuries. Among these men is Mike Cronin, who has lived in the city of Omaha for twenty years or more, and worked for the Union Pacific for a good many years. He claims to qwn property here valued at 5,000 or $6,000. He wanta to work in the on the Mission board, insisted that the money should be handled by the usion's representative, and In this she was sup- ported by other members. Mrs. Ti'den ex- plained that so far as the members of the jolnt committee were concerned all had every confidence in Miss Magee's ability to conduct the work and handle the money, but that under the circumstances the ar- rangement suggested had been considered best. It was clearly an effort on the part of the joint committec to avold further fric- tion between Mrs. Shinrock and Miss M goe, and it was fnally decided that the fa dustrial work should be continued under the direction of & superintendent, who is to be appointed later. Mrs. Covell is to h charge of the mothers’ meetings. At last the temple question came up and after belng presented from both sides th women decided to pay the §100, as they had originally voted. Mre.

Monday is Ringling Bros.' circus day in Omaha. One can get tired of the theaters, books will hore, pictures pall and it does not take long to outgrow the joys of a moonlight picale, but the circus, the thrill- ing, whooping joy of the circus, never dles. The parade, which is an extraordinary feature of the Ringling circus, will leave the grounds Monday morning at 10 o'clock. The Ringling pageant has been much ad- mired here in the past and it Is more de- @erving now than ever. There is alwava a tidy, spick-and-span look about it that ome often misses In processions of this char- acter. The horses and other animals look well groomed and cared for and all the people concerned appear prosperous, self- respecting and happy. Most of the animal cages are left open during the parade so that the public may see these fine speci- mens without cost. = Handsomely-gowned women riding thoroughbred horses, jockeys in buckskin, soldler types of great nations of the world, clown fun-makers, Japaneso Jugglers, plantation sitgers, Ofiental min- strels, a children's mehagerie, tableaux cars, illustrating Falfyland stories; a mounted band, thirty “elephafits, twenty camels, educated donkeys, goats and dogs, a chime of church bdells and the inevitable calliope are among the diversified and mul- tiplied features of the great parade organ- ized by the Ringling brothers. The ring performances have caused en- thusiastic prafse elsewhere. There are more than 100 acts, sometimes as many as ten golng om at the same time. When the most important features are presented there are no other acts golng on at the same time, so that one’s attention is not diverted from the sensational merits of these num- bers.

As all the events happened at the same time, McKaver, a member of the firm and a brother of Ollie, is persuaded that Ollie and Mike are the cause of the firm's financial loss. This euspicion is strengthened, he told the police, by his knowledge of the fact that Olile and Mike were met at Mead- ows, the home of the once-verdant Mike, by a two-horse wagon; that the goods taken from the store were transterred to the wagon and that Ollie and Mike are now selling the goods to bargain seekers thranghout tha rural Alstriets.
