The wild Indian warwhoop echoed and choed last night through Mechanics’ : for the amusement of the y The Indians, or rather the al- Indians, were decked out in full er and liberally besmeared with war- t. They entered the hall, lustily giv- g their warwhoops, and forming a circle und a fire bufit in the middle of the or they executed a war dance which realistic enough to deceive &ny who had never seen the real ued aborigines. To the discord- oy of a base drum the “sav- danced and executed all manner of antics around the fire.

They were supposed to be prison- ers of the Indians, who made frequent imitations of scalping rhem. Before the prisoners lost any of their blood a com- pany of regulars appeared on the field and rescaed them. The rescue was truly a pod-curdling scene. The soldiers rged the Indians with their pistols and the savages fought back, using clubbed m: s and scalping knives. When the bloodless fleld was won all the Indians save one had their toes turned up to greet e rising sun. The one who escaped un- unately had his wig lost in the shuf- and had to give up the play of “dead jun.” Preceding the war dance two Japanese wrestlers and two Japanese fencers en- tertained the Xnights. As few of the visitors had ever before witnessed the nimble little brown men in their sports, the exhibitions proved very interesting. “harles A. Doyle, director of amuse- ments in Mechanics’ Pavilion, had charge of the programme and did the announcing in a very commendable manner.

Bangs called the session to order, and af- ter the convention had conferred the Su- preme Lodge rank upon John T. Horner of Kentucky the report of the condition of the Endowment Rank was taken up and thoroughly discussed. The election of two members of the board of control of the Endowment Rank was first on the programme at the after- noon session. Frank H.

It was decided to hold an executive ses- sion of the Supreme Lodge next Tuesday to correct guestions of law now upon the statutes that are in conflict with the su- preme constitution of the order. Another important matter that was be- fore the Supreme Lodge was the proposi- tion of creating an executive committee of the board of control. The board is com- posed of seven members and heretofore it has been necessary for the whole board to meet before any actlon could be taken in business matters. With the new arrange- ment there will be an executive commit- tee composed of three members who will have full power to act. The sensation of the session this morn- ing will be the introduction of a resolu- tion to expel John A. Hinsey from the Su- preme Lodge. Although he has few ad- herents among the members of the lodge, it is thought that scme excitement will be caused in adopting the resolution. Further reports of the president of the board of control will be considered show- ing that within the last year, since Hin- sey was removed from office, the liabili- ties of the order have been reduced from $615.000 to A sum less than $122,000, besides | paying over $2,000,000 of current claims and expenses. By special vote of the convention the members of Canton Lodge of Canton, Ohio, were allowed to subscribe to the McKinley memorial fund. Henry P. Caldwell of Illinois was ap- pointed official reporter of the Supreme Lodge. Mr. Caldwell has made a study of and is an authority on Pythian law. He has been a member of committees which prepared two digests and three constitutions of the Grand Lodge, and has performed the principal part of the work in revising the present statutes of Illi- nols, the publication of which will mark :x nelw era in the arrangement of frater- nal law.

New Destroyer Chauncy Succeeds. PHILADELPHIA. Aug. 15—The new The Supreme Tribunaj Renders Some De- cisions. HE most important matter ‘ that has occurred at this ses- * slon of the Supreme Tribunal ~ and one that is of interest to ~ every member of the order was the trial of the case of * John A. Hinsey at the Occi- dental Hotel yesterday. Hinsey was president of the board of control from 1888 up to January, 1901, and during this time it is alleged that he fraudulently converted to his own use sums aggregating over $5,000,000. Some of the charges were rather vague inasmuch as Hinsey invested sums for the Endow- ment Rank and when the venture proved | good, it is alleged, he appropriated the profits. On other occasions when the | deals resulted In a loss, it is claimed, he charged it to the order. There were a | large number of loans made on fraudu- lent receipts to parties supposed to have been partners of Hinsey, it is further charged, and when these loans were dis- covered to be worthless the statutes of limitation in the criminal courts pre- vented prosecution. The subordinate lodge of which Hinsey was a member apgointed a trial commit- tee to listen to the case and the result | was that he was found not guilty. Later the prosecution appealed to the Grand Tribunal of Illinois upon the grounds that the subordinate lodge did not have juris- diction to try the case. When the appeal Ship-building Company to-day after a successful trip. The figures “29.51,” paint- ed on the smokestack, represented the maximum speed in knots attained by the destroyer on her trial. President Sed- dinger of ‘the ship-building company says the Chauncy made an average speed of 28.64 knots in her four trial runs, and dur- ing the endurance trial of one hour she averaged 26.80 knots, or nearly one knot above the speed required. The speedy lit- tle vessel will be turned over to the Gov- ernment shortly. Boy’s Cigarette Starts Blaze. CINCINNATI, Aug. 15.—Shortly after- noon to-day Plke’s Opera-house was dis- covered on fire.

World says to-day that Mrs. Anna E. Nelson, mother of the late Mrs. Charles L. Falr, accompanied by her son, A. G. Nelson, a half-brother of the late Mrs. Fair, will leave their home at Newmarket, N. J., on Sunday for San Francisco, where they will employ law- yers to represent them in the distribution of the Fair estate. The paper add: the trip_is made at thaplg!tl ali;nthzg Joseph Harvey of San Francisco, who nad telegraphed Mrs. Nelson to come im- mediately. The paper also quotes Edward S. Lefler, a real estate dealer of this city, as saying that he and his family would take steps to protect their interests as r. Lefler's mother was a sister Charles L. Fair. Among Mrs. Fair's heirs besides her mother, others who live in the East, are said to be Mrs. Elizabeth Bunnell of Union, N. J.; Mrs. Laura Leonard of Caldwell, N. J.; Wil- eventually Mrs. M. E. Cushing of Mil- waukee succeeded in gathering the most votes and she was declared the manager. Mrs. N.

For many weeks the mem- bers of the Supreme Temple have been discussing the chances of the two, and the outcome of the election was watched with much interest. After two ballots the name of Mrs. Quinlan was well in the lead and her election so certain that it ‘was. made almost unanimous on the last. For the office of supreme senior there was no contest, and as a mark of the es- teem in which she is held by the members of the order Mrs. Lydia A. Monroe of Riverside, Cal., was chosen by acclama- tion. Mrs. Monroe was the only officer selected at yesterday’s election in such a manner, and the result is considered a tribute to the State. Candidates for the office of supreme ju- nior were numerous, as this is considered to be the stepping stone to the place of supreme chief. It took a number of bal- lots to decide the election, but in the end Mrs. Josephine Hall of Hudson, Mich., ‘was the winner. The further the election went the more plentiful became the candidates. For the office of supreme manager there were no less than seven, and it was only through a motion to close the nominations that the ladies then stopped.

They are Mrs. Sarah Lefler of Orange, Mrs. Laura Leonard of Caldwell and Mrs. Libbie Bunnell and ‘Will Smith of Newmarket. Besides these a half-brother, Abraham Nelson, lives with Mr. Smith’s mother, Mrs. Abraham Nelson, at Newmarket. Mr. Smith went to Denver this after- noon on receipt of a telegram from 2 nephew connected with a New York law firm, advising him to see an attorney.

One bears on the plans for raising the indemnity and was promulgated at Peking. The other concerns the disarm- ing of the people ard was issued by ths Viceroy of Chili. The decree concerning thedindemn!(y was issued on July 30 and reads: Concerning various rew plans for raising the new indemnity, there is not a single good one among them. Edicts bave been repeatedly is- sued on the subject Instructing Viceroys _and Governors to deliberate on the state ot affairs and to devise a satisfactory plan of action. There must be no oppression of the people. The throne has pity for the people and does not forget them, awake or asleep, and as a special reminder we command the Viceroys and Gov- ernors to do away with whatever may cause too much friction in their plans for raising the indemnity. There shculd not be the least need- less severity which might lead to trouble. They should be made to understand the cir- cumstances so that they may be willing to do their duty gladly. Concerning the officials in connected with the likin, who collect taxes, it is more necessary that a stop be put to flling their own pockets and they be strictly prohib- jted from practicing extortion. If any be found at their oid tricks only seeking to make profit we command that they be justly impeached so that they may be severely deait with. Thers will be no leniency shown. The Viceroys and Governors have received great favors from the throne, and they should, {rom time to time, ke investigations with the special object of affording relief in th ease the burdens of the people. special injunctions. Respect this. Since this edict was issued the likin tax has been abolished. Governor Yuan Shik Kae on July 1 issuell this edict concern- ing the carrying of arms in the province of Chili: Private possession of weapons has hitherto been forbidden by law. In 1900, during the time of trouble, a good many weapons were left among the peopie to the injury of various localities. Some time ago I laid_down clear rules for giving up such arms. In case any train bands are still in possession of weapons and have not complied with the law, they must at once do so and give them up to pre- vent trouble. As to native Christians in pos- session of munitions of war, they must also deliver them up. No private individual will be permitted to carry weapons about his person in order to disarm suspicion and aveid trouble. The year befors last the Hoxer® caused dis- turbances, killing and plundering, but these are now old scores which sheuld not be raked up. Aside from instructing all under my juris- diction to comply with the above orders, I put out this proclamation, hoping that the gentry and people will take note of this and comply.
