C., met in its 40th Annual Grand Communication at Masonic Hall, 308 11th st.n. w., Washing- ton, D. C.,and was opened in am- ple form by the Grand Master, P. W , Bro. John H. Lee. The G, 8., Bro, Myers, read his reports to the Grand Lodge for the year ending Dec. 27th, which reports show that the affairs of the Grand Lodge are in a prosperous condition, and that there are on the register, 10 Lodges with an aggregate member- ship of 800. The G. L. then went into election of grand officer for the year ’89, which resulted as follows: Grand Master, R, W. B., John H. tLee; D. G. M., do Robert B. Tin- nia; G. S, W., do Henry Coleman; G. J. W., do Horitio.N. Smith; G. Treasurer, do, Mason B. Lowrey ; G. Sect., do William H. Myers; after which the Grand Lodge was closed in due form by its grand master. As before stated, the Bre spoke in relation toa bome for the color- ed Masons, of the D, C., for an_il- lustration, an individual can by his own exertion buy a home and pay a certain amount, say $6,000, now the grand question is, cannot 800 smart men buy a place suitable for a hall and stop paying rent. Let some of the bright lights come to the front, and staré the ball in motion. The proposed pilgrimage of Mt. Cal. Commandery, No. 4. K. T., to Providence, R. I., 7, 28, 789, prom- ises to be a grand affair. Itis ex pected that a large number will accompany this popular command- ery on its trip. They proposed to |stopin New York, New Bedford and Providence, R. I., so triends | commence to save up for the trip, | as it will bea glorious affair. For particulars will be given at a later date. | a | | Let every Baptist member min CLOTHING, Goods: must be sacrificed, Clothing converted into cash at all hazards_at this GIGANTIC BANKRUPT SALE, 912 F st.
