Jones was . and, pliot, Thomas Allen was oars- n and. Bill Allen baled the water out p. the old craft afloat. The three Dear the present location of the nothing here at that time but an Indian village and trading post. Next morning, blazing a tree and putting thereon his Initials with his survey marking iron, he blazed northward to a point afterward Chosen by Herman Kountze as a sito for his home. Jones finished his work In order, being a surveyor, thus making the first claim in Douglas county. Later the Indlans protested against Jones' claim, and it was then he secured, through his brother 0dd Fellow, J. D. Test, of Council Bluffs, the appolntment as postmaster and put up his bullding. Shortly after he arrived in what is now Omaha Jones began to talk of organizing an 0dd Fellows lodge, He needed four be- sides himself to apply for a charter, but one of his prospective members left the territory and disappeared, never being heard of afterward. This occasioned delay, and before Jones could drum up a fifth man holding & regular withdrawal card lodge No. 1 was chartered at Nebraska City. Not long after the granting of this charter Jones forwarded his applieation for a charter in Omaha, bearing the names of Alfred D. Jones, Hadley D. Johnson, Ambrose §. Bishop, Tayjor G. Goodwill and George Armstrong. The charter of Omaha lodge No. 2 bears date of November 17, 185, being the oldest document of its character in this state. It was warrant for the establishment in Omaha of the first lodge of this or any other order, and it was the first fraternal lodge instituted in the state which lived, as Nebraska lodge No. 1 soon dropped and 5 FRIEND A LINIMENT FOR EXTERNAL USE. ¥4~ No wonisn who bears children need suffer during the period of waiting, age st $he time of baby’s coming, if Mother's Friend is seed AN & mastagé for the muscles; tendons and glands of the body.

ATLANTA,. GA. | was incorporated with Frontier lodge No. 3. On February 1, 1865, according to Mr. Greenjeaf’s finding, the five charter mem- bers of Omaha lodge No. 1 assembled in the old territorfal capitol bullding, which stood on the west side of Ninth street, be- tween Farnam and Douglas streets, just south of the alley. Districy Deputy Grand Sire J. P. Cassidy of Council Bluffs at that time, Installed these officers: Noble Grand, Alfred D. Jones; vice grand, Taylor G. Goddwlll; recording secretary, Ambrose 8. Bishop; permanent secretary, George Armstrong; treasurer, Hadley D. Johnson. Besides these men there were present C. C. Van Fort from Des Moines lodge No, 25, Abram Hecht from Cincinnatl, ~Milton Rogers, J. D. Test, M. W. Robinson, John A. Latfferty, George Dougherty, J. J. Mar- tin, J. 8. Hootun and E. R. Robinson. 1 At the third meeting the first new mem- ber was initiated In the person of Hiram C. Anderson, a druggist. He was ap- pointed warden of the lode. At the fifth meeting two ministers were taken in, Rev. Willlam Leach and Rev. J. F. Collins. The one was made chaplain of ‘the lodge and the other conductor. June 13, 1866, John Ricks, J. W. Richardson and G. W. Hepburn were admitted by card. D. D, Carr was taken In at the next session, also by card. ! Double Up omn Offices. During quite a period that followed many members filled two offices in the lodge and meetings were not very regular. By November 4, 185, Dr. George L. Miller, H. W. Tuttle, John Y. Clopper and J. B. Allen had been Initiated, and Jeremiah Cassldy, Asa Hunt, John R. Porter and G, . Crowell were admitted by card. On that date all the offices In the lodge were filled for the first time In December, 1856, it was dectded to aliow, | the secretary to receive city serip for dues, as times were hard on account of a panic in the previous September. Going ‘along easy, the lodge had grown to a membership of thirty-nine by January, 188, Then a ball was given, which netted $60.3. The old minutes say this was one of the great- est balls ever glyen anywhere on earth for real jollity and pure enjoyment After meeting for some time In the old capitol bullding, the lodge moved into ‘s small wooden bullding on the site where the police station now stands. From here the meeting place was changed to a house on Dodge street, near Twelfth, ocoupled by Rev. Mr. Leach, “which, was 8o cold water would freeze behind a red hot stove.” The modemn winter has Improved but slightly, it at all, on the achievements of its early Nebraska ancestors, The old Western Exchange bullding, which stoed at Twelfth and Farnam streets, . was the next meeting place, ahd during all these moves Alfred D. Jones kept the records in his home at Park Wilde, carrying them to and from all meet- ings. Meetings in Armstrong Home. George Armstrong’s residence witnessed the holding of a good many lodge meet- ings. This house was on Dodge, just east of Fifteenth. In the next few years the lodge met In the Ploneer block, on Farnam, between Eleventh and Twelfth, and in the third story of a bullding on Farnam, occu- pled by G. H. and J. 8. Collins, The latter location was held until 1§74, when the lodge took up its quarters in the present home, Fourteenth and Dodge. The Townsite com- pany gave the lot and the bullding cost 327,00 “And Jones pald the taxes for many years when the lodge was short of funds.” Martin Dunham often told a story of holding meetings and initiations by candie light, furnished by Joseph F. Sheeley, and the members holding them aloft. A travel- ing brother brought word of a new fangled thing called a chandelfer, and the lodge decided to have one right away. So @ brother donated an old wagon wheel rim, which was suspended from the celling at the proper height, and the candles were set_about this several inches apart. Thik new lighting arrangement was the wonder of the community, and the falthful chron- |icler says “the result was dazzling when |all the candles were lighted.” Through ad oversight later, the old: chandelier was not preserved, as it should have been, ‘being the pride of the lodge for many month When the grand lodge of Nebraska, In | dependent Order of Odd Fellows was or- ganized at Nebraska City, September 27, 167, but three lodges were represented, Nos. 1. 2 and 3, 'and the delegates present paying the freight for Omaha No. 2. The date of the charter of the Nébraska grand lodge is January § 1858, and on April 27, City by Charles ¥. Holley, deputy grand sire for Nebraska territory, Besides the three lodges mentioned Bellevue No. 4 and Brownville No, 6 were represented. Brother George Armstrong of No. 2 was made tem- porary secretary, Wit “the Nebraska City breth rm seemed. g have packed the con- vention, as they had seven of the ten rep- |resutatives present, and accordingly car- ried off most of the plums, usual getting nothing.” Grand Lodge's Fitst Session. September 14, 1865, was the date of the first regular session of the grand lodge, held at Omaba In the hall of No. 2, with six lodges represented. The Clvil war shattered most lodges then existing In Nebraska, but No. 2 worried along. One of its members, General John M, ‘Thayer, commanded the first regiment of spldiers ralsed in the territory of Ne- braska, and another Odd Fellow, Colonel Robert W. Furnas, ofBrownville, No. b, commanded the second regiment. Alvin Sdunders, governor and United States sena- tot, was also an honored member of Omaha lodge, No. 2, as was Gegeral John M. Chiv- ington, U.'8. A, ‘‘wl relentiess pursuit and severe punishment of the Indians pro- voked much unfavorable criticism.’ George Armstrong, long ‘prominent in the lodge, arrived In Omaha In 1864 «He bullt the first capital bullding.for the territory, was afterward mayor of Omaha, became a sol- Qler and served as major of the Second Nebraska cavaley.' Alfred D, Jones also achleved distinetion s a parfamentarian and debater My ‘two ‘sesslons of the terri- torial courtetly. Oldest Lifing Member. Mr. Greenleat's historical research brought to light Nelson T, Spoor, now of St. Louls, as the oldest liying member of Omaha lodge, No. 2, comi "tre by card from Counefl Bluffs, His rd shows that he has been an Odd Fellow for over fifty-seven years without a break. Next comes Wil- lam Doll, with an unbroken record of fifty-three vears. Willlam H. Larkin was Initiated fifty-one years coming to No. 2 by card' In January, 182 R. P. Kimball, Yohn W.

In the work of preparing the historical data of Omaha lodge No. 2, from which the above information i8 taken, Samuel K Greenleat had the assistance of Louls Helmrod, G. Striffler and George E. Turk- ington, the four heing members of a com- mittee especially appointed for that pur- pose. GREATEST TESTING MACHINE Pressure of Ten Million Pounds the New Test for Bullding Construction. Over 2,000 tests have been made by the technologic branch of the survey under the supervision of Engineer Richard”L. Hum- phrey of plain and re-enforced concrete beams, columns and blocks, under every possible condition, to determine thelr tensill and crushing strength and fire resisting qualities. The concrete was manufactured at the testing plant with various branls of cement, sand, gravel and stone, obtaine] from all parts of the country. To accom- plish these tests a number of heavy ma- chines have been used, several 200,000 and 300,000 pounds, and one of 800,000 poun s’ capaglty. There is now nearing completion also, at Pittsburg, the largest machine In | the world for testing the strength of struc- | tural materials used in great buildings and engineering works. This machine will ex- ert a maximum pressure of 10,000,000 pounds. It will stand some eighty feet above a solld concrete foundation, and be housed in a structure 100 feet In height, with ele- vators running to the top so that the en- gineers may examine the dlstribution of the loads in the columns being tested at any point, and may also detect the firs sight of weakening. Had this machine been available to the engineers of the Quebec bride that aceldent would probably never have happened. Here, again, the country at large will be the greatest beneficlary, although this powers tul testing apparatus was acquired by the geological survey primarily for the pur- pose of testing large blocks of stone, beams and ‘columns of concrete, and other ma- terial used in the construction work of the government. The federal government s | the largest bullder in the world, and it is a matter of simple economy in the expendi- | ture of its money that there should be a | detinite knowledge by its engineers of the strength of the material used.—Review -of Reviews. ¢ | e —— ' A Dangerous Wound. |1s rendered antiseptic by Bucklen's Arnica Salve, the healing wonder for sorcs, burns, plles, ecgema &nd salt rheum For sale by Beaton Drug Co, e ———— e, MAKES KIDNEYS ACT FINE—ENDING | LAME BACK AND BLADDER MISERY regulate your out-of-order Kidneys and make you feel fine.
