From the New York Times (Ind Dem.) The Southern papers are not well advised in their severe criticism of the President for inviting Dr. Booker Washington to dinner at the White House.

The colored Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite Masons in the United States will on the 6th ofnext August, 1go2, at Springfield, Ohio celebrate the fifty -second year of the introduct- ion of the Ancient Accepted Sottish Rite among the colored masons in the United States. The United Supreme Council of the Ancient Accepted Scottish Rite for the southern “and western masonic jurisdiction of the United States, its territories and de- pendences, will hold at that time their thirty-third annual session at Spriag- field, Ohio, All masons of the exalted rank of the 33rd degree will come from all sections of the conntry at that time. The members of the Supreme Connell of tne Ancient Accepted Rite of the thirty-third degree are divided into two distinzuishing branches active and honory members. The Supreme Council is limited to thirty- | three active member,s and they are elected for life. The colored masons in the state of Florida called a meeting to organize anew grand Lodge fos the state of Florida. They are in open revolt against the unmasonic conduct of Grand Master John Dickerson. It Grand Master Dickerson ignored all the wasonic lawand masonic teaching oe the order.
