AKLAND, Aug. 2lL.—Twenty-five vears ago California Lodge No. 1, Ancient Order of United Workmen, was or- ganized at West Oakland. To-day the order celebrated its silver ann sary by a picnic at Shell Mound Park during the day and literary exercises at the First Presbyterian Church in the evening. As the order was born in Qakland a quarter of a century ago and as the present grand master of the State, Charles E. Snook, is a resi- dent of Cakland, it was fitting that the Alameda County lodges should have charge of the anniversary. It was Angust 21, 1875, that the late Horace G. Platt. who was one of the original organizers of the Workmen, called a meeting in the hall on the corner of Seventh and Pine streets and formed California Lodge No. 1, A. O.'U. W. There were fifteen members on the charter roll and the first officers were: Edward Surrhyne, master workman; J. C. Fields, past master workman; William H. Fiske, foreman; Henry, overseer. The other officers and members were: J. A. Cariton, B. B. Allen, A. B. Hoag, J. A. Chase, Newottny, A. H. Anderson, W. H%Omey, John Woof, J. W. Plummer, J. H. Tyler and A. Bear. nce then the order has grown to be one of the most powerful in the State, but Oakland still continues to be the home of the Workmen, Grand Master Charles E. Snook was largely instrumental in arranging the celebration to-day, which was success- ful In every way. i members of the Ancient Order of to-day at Shell Mound Park, which of the order's birth.
