REBEKAH CONSTITUTION The Grand Lodge Makes Ope Im- portant Change in That Article. GRAND WARDEN CANDIDATES. Strong but Friend!ly Rivalry as to to Who Shail Fill That Office for Next Year. Despite the fact that the preceding even- ing was spent in convivialities, the dele- gates to the Forty-fourth annual conven- tion of the Grand Lodge of the Independ- ent Order of Odd Fellows of California were up yesterday hour to enjoy the brigirt, warm sunshine and talk over the affairs of the organiza- tion with fellow-members prior to the day’s session. At 10 o'clock, the regular hour appointed for the morning meetings, Odd Fellows' | building was thronged with delegates and members, gayly bedecked with the insignia of the order. In their character of a foster- ing parent, the gentlemen alternated be- tween Assembly and Memorial halls, the latter being the meeting-place of the Daughters of Rebekah. Just as the Grand Lodge was called to order Past Grand Master 8. E. Moreland, spokesman for the Alameda delegation, rose from bhis seat and stepped forward with a large, beautiful bouquet of roses in a curiously wrought vase of antique de- , which be presented to Grand Master Gosbey with an eloguent speech in recog- nition of his efforts for the welfare of the GRCDBRutc« body of which he had been the head for a year. The grand master was evidently deeply touched this tribute to his integrity and e ciency and made a feeling speech, thanking the Alameda delegation warmly for t kinduess and forethought. The major part of the time devoted to the morning the reports of standi: The committee on a very full statement of the conditions of | the order throughout both the oid and the new worlds. lows: morning at an early | sion was taken up by | £ committees | yrrespondence made | In part it reads as fol- | united as brothers, we bid defiance to all oppo- :;uan and triumph over the greatest difficul. ies. France—Reports of the two lodges in this jurisdiction show a membership loss of seven. These two lodges are situated in Havre. They hope to show better results next report. Germany—The order generally is doing well. . ltaly has opened a new field for_our labors in instituting Columbo Lodge No. 1, with twenty-one wembers, at Naples. Japan—No report to us; and in Mexico the order is making no progress. Netherlancs —The reports show the three lodges in_this jurisdiction in a healthy con- ditfon, with a fair gain in membership, while in Peru they feel as_though it is only & ques- tion of time when Odd Fellowship there will be 8 thing of the past. Sandwich Islands—In this jurisdiction we note a smailioss in membership. Sweden, Europe—The Grand Lodge of Sweden was instituted by Brother Herman Block, special deputy grand sire for Europe, July 8, 1895 Sweden, as yet, 1s in its infancy, and that be- fore long it will be one of the most prosperous Jjurisdictions in Europe. Switzerland, Europe—The report shows the order in a good condition, with & steady in- crease in membership. As tnis report is about going to print we re- ceived the Journalof Procecdingsof the Grand Lodge of Manitoba showing an increase of ten lodges and 354 in membership. The report of the committee on finance was adopted, as well as that of the com- mittee on petitions. The reportof the latter contained a clause, iptmdnced by Representative Phelps of No. 282, asking that an amendmeat be made to the con- stitution of subordidate lodges providing that no saloon-keeper, bartender or pro- fessional gambler be eligible to member- ship. The clause was reicrred to the com- mittee on legislation. The committee further recommended that the grand master’s salary be increased from $1000 to $1500. The recommendation was adopted unacimously. % Areselution was entered providing that the Grand Lodge present a veteran jewel to all memberslo( twenty-five years’ stand- ing, but it was lost. - Fhe county of San Mateo, which by some oversight nad been omitted in last year's list of districts, was given a place in | District No. 3 It was decmed inexpedient to printa digest with the copies of constitutions and by-laws of the subordinate lodges | hereafter issued, as an official digest will J = Kéé:ncrrt. We have care ol band and find that with & very few cxceptions come reports from all parts of ited States and many of the foreig dictions of stagnation in business and de ciation in values, which .no doubt has been the meaus of retardin e progress of Odd ¥ellowship to & greater extent this year than for many years past, yet it is pleasing to note that in ‘nearly ail the reports are words of cheerfulness and encouragement such as ema- only from those who have been oughly imbued with & proper conception of their capabilities for good Although the order hias not made the growth t has in some years gone by, stiil 1t shows that 2 p 10,603 members in the jurisdiction of the T d States and Canada and the Rebekah lodges with a net gain of 21,909 members in the same jurisdiction. While the order in the United States is mak- ing a very fnir progress, the reports as a whole rom the foreign jurisdictions are not encourag- ing Australasis—Report that owing to the un- | satisfactory condition of trade they will show an aggregate loss of membership for the past vear, but they are doing ail in their power to ussistin a forward movement.

They are, however, hopeful that in the neer future the order may revive egai Cuba—On account of the revolution that has broken out on the isiand the Governor- eneral las issued a decree prohibiting all secret socie- ties from assembling. We have no reports as to their present standing, but we alldo know the deplorable €ondition of that beauti- ful island. It is & source of regret that the secd of 0dd Fellowship once sown tnere should not have produced thousanafold. And we hope that the time is not far off when they will more fully realize the fact that, 1y examined {he latest re- | thor- | gressive epirit In making & net gein of | =oon be prepared by the Grand Lodge, and furnished as a separate volume. The afternoon meeting was opened with an executive session, which lasted from 2 o'clock, the hour of commencement, until & few minutes of 3. Some of the members and delegates were unlucky enough to ar- rive late and consequently bad to stand round in the corridors disconsolate. However, they managed to pass the time discussing the prospects of candi- | dates for the various otgees until the exec- utive session was over. During tnis secret part of the afternoon meeting Grand Representative Thompson exemplified the unwritten work of the or- | der for the bencit of the visiting delogatos, | Those who were lucky enough to hear it | expressed themselves as having received a | much better understanding of the work | than heretofore. The rest of the afternoon session wasde- | voted to the adoption of a constitution for | the State Assembly of Rebekahs. They were formerly known when in conclave as a convention and had a constitution for | such a bodv; but the last act of the | Grand Lodge during its forty-third. an- | nual communication was to transform the | body into an assembly. For that reason | it was found necessary to alter the consti- | tution. | . Only one important change was made. | While the former constitution empowered | the grand president to issue dispensations | to the members of subordinate lodges to | aprear in public in regalia, the latter takes this authority away. To offset this the grand president is granted five new powers not possessed by her heretofore. I The election of officers comes off to-day. Though a great deal of interest is taken in Mrs. Marian Greenwood, Who Will Be Grand President of the Rebekahs for the Ensuing Year. | twenty vears and at | the California Odd Feliow. We believe that Odd Fellowship in | the election of all those officers who are not to be advanced by precedent, such as the office of grand master, which will be occupied by Deputy Grand Master War- boys, by far tie greatest amount of time and attention is given to the grand warden- ship. There are no less than twelve can- didates in the field now and more to hear from. The reason for this, assigned by mem- bers lobbying for particular candidates, is obvious. By precsden: the grand warden next fiils the dopm{ grand master’s chair, and so comes at last to be the grand master. The other offices are purely elec- tive and lead to nothine. Perbaps the most prominent candidate now inthe field is J. L. Robinette of Sacra- mento. He has been an Odd Fellow for resent is editor of Besides, his following is increased by the fact that he isnot only a member of the grana lodge, but also of Industrial Lodge No. 157, Occ! dental Encampment No. 52, Canton Sacra- mento No. 1, % Star Rebekah Lo No. 8, the Veteran Odd Fellows’ Associa- tion, and is chairman of the general relief committee. Another prominent member whose card 1s cut for grand warden is Karl C. Brueck of Stockton. Though a member of only nine years’ standing, he has held practi- cally every office in_ the subordinate lodges, is on the committee of legislation in the Grand Lodge, and ran second for the grand wardenship last year, which will place him in the line of progression. For some reason or other the Alameda contingent has rever yet placed a member in the candidacy for any of the Grand Lodge offices. As the county has many lodges and a large roll of members, the delegates decided that they would not lag this time, and placed T.E. Whitney of Oakland forward, Itisrumored that Mr. Whitney had at least 150 votes pledged to him up to the time of adjournment yes- terday. Another aspirant, also accredited with a large pledged vote, is Samuel F. Smith, a leading lawyer of San Diego. He has been in the order for fiiteen years, a member of the Grand Lodge for five years, and on various standing committees for four ears. Then, there is W. A. Bonynge of s Angeles, who has belonged to the Odd Fellows for eighteen years; John E. Baker of Alturas, and J. F. Crosett of this city, Secretary of the Gold Miners’ Exchange, who is the Past Grand Patriarch of the order. The evening session was not employed in labor, but tne Capital Lodge Degree Carps, No. 87, of Sacramento, exemplified the first and second degrees to the enjoy- ment of the visitors from other lodges. S SRR SESSION OF REBEKAHS. A Benefit for the Orphans’ Home at the Columbia Theater to Take Place To-Night. The whole morning’s session of the Re- bekahs’ lodge was spent in a considera- J WeWAREBOYS tion of their new constitution. The con- stitution was taken up article by article and section by section, and subjected to | TE Marphy, Stackion rigid criticism. *If you think we women can’t concen- trate our minds, you ought just to have seen us bring the gray matter of our cerebral organs to bear uvon that docu- ment,” said Mrs. Allen, a member of the press com mittee. Between the hours of 1 and 2 in the afternoon Grand Representative Thomp- son conferred the Grand Rebekah degree in Prospect Hall. This is a new degree, and corresponds to the Grand Lodge de- ee. gl.\\'hen the meeting was formally opened in the afternoon Past Grand Master Alex- ander was introduced to the ladies and talked pleasantly about the work and his- tory of the order for a half hour. This gentleman is something of a ce- lebrity, as he was the first man to enter a resolution providing that the Adamic rib should be taken from the body of theOdd Fellows with which to give life 1o the Re- bekah Eve. A great part of the afternoon was passed in discussing a private matter in regard to_the constitution. The guestion was raised during the morning session and taken up again. The committee on secret work then ex- emplified that branch for the instruction of the delegates and new members. After the secret work had been exem- plified, various committees, about one- third of the total number, brought in their repors. The afternoon session ended with the singing of “*Auld Lang Syne.” To-morrow morning will occur the elec- tion of officers for the ensuing year. D trict Deputy Antoinette Shaw will ex- emFli!y the installation coremony. Mrs. Mary E. Donoho, the present grand secretary, is said to be sure of re-election. She has held this office for the term of five years, ever since the Rebekahs were organized, and, though there are many aspirants for that seem to think that she will again be called upon to occupy hef post. Mrs. Marian Greenwood of Stockton is in the line of promotion to the grand pres- idency and in accordance with precedent will occupy that office for the coming year. There was no evening session, not even the conferring of any degrees. The ladies wanted one evening, they said, to go whither they would. To-morrow evening a benefit under the auspices of the Rebekah Lodge will be given for the I. O. O. F. Orphans’ Home at the Columbia Theater. The drama of Mor- rison’s “Faust” will be played and the Grand Lodge will also cease their labors and attend. SHERWOOD-PLACE SCANDAL, Charges Booked Against F. H. Worth and Robert Madden, & Sailor. Accompanied by the three girls, Annie Docherty, Katie Langshaw and Annie Oates, who were maltreated in the house of F. H. Worth, the “Black Diamond,” on Sherwood place, Policeman Ryan went on board the Bennington on' Tuesday night to see if they .could identify any of the sailors. All the men were called on deck, and the girls pointed out Robert Madden and John Wilson as two of the men who were in Worth’s house. Madden was placed under arrest and taken to the City Prison yesterday morn- ing. Wilson was not arrested, as the girls said although he was present he did not take part in the outrage. 18 years of age, and the officers of the ship said he bore an excellent reputation. The sailors made up a purse and engaged Crittenden Thornton to defend him. Four charges were booked against the colored man Worth yesterday and one charge against Madden. The police are hunting for another man, position, the majority | Madden is only ; NO FOUR-YEAR TERMS, Judge Seawell Has Decided Kahn's Suit to Test the Law. The Reprecincting of the City Put Over for a While—Will Hurry the Appeal. Judge Seawell sustained the demurrer of the Election Commissioners to Julius Kahn'’s suit yesterday, and so falls for the present, at least, all hope for those anxious for a four-year term in office. The decision was an oral one. It was simply, “‘Demurrer sustained.” An opin- ion will probably be filed within a day or two, however., The ground for his de- cision was that the county government act does not apply to San Francisco, at least so far as the four-year clause is cone cerned. Kahn’s suit was to enjoin the Election Commissioners from proceeding to pre- are for the municipal election next ovember. The design wasto test the four- year-law, and with that end in view an appeal will be taken from Judge Seawell's decision at once. X Immediately on hearing of Judge Sea- well’s decision the Election Commission- ers held a special meeting to decide whether or not it was necessary to repre- cinct the City. City and County Attorney Creswell was for havingit done at once, but acting Mayor Taylor advised waiting until the Supreme Court passes on the case. It was decided to consult Attorneys Barnes and McEnerney and ascertain whether there 1s any likelihood of the matter being brought to a speedy conclu- sion. Registrar Hinton announced that he had decided to begin registration on the 27th inst., or 160 days before election. Mr. Creswell objected, but as the matter had been left to the discretion of the Regis- trar, his decision was final. It is intended to rush matters as fast as possible before the Supreme Court, and it 18 hoped to have a decision by July 1. —————— HOTEL ARRIVALS. RUSS HOUSE.
