B’NAI BRITH.

Organization of Ligonier Lodge No. 298,

The organization of a lodge of the “Song of the Covenant,” in Ligonier, is anevent to the consummation of which the Israelitish portion of our population looked forth with unusual interest and anxiety. TFor weeks the project, had been earnestly discussed in their circles, and when finally a day for permanent organization had been fixed, the most elabgrate preparations were made to rendér it an- oceasion long to be remembered by the partieipants. : _ v

Sunday last was the day fixed upon for calling into existence, in our midst, a new secret order. Twenty-six members were initiated into the mysteries of the Order by Grand Secretaries A. Abraham, of Cineinnati, and-Adolph Loeb, of Chicago, assisted by resident “B. B’s” who joined the order in other places years ago. The work necessarily consumed considerable time and must have greatly taxed the physical endurance of the principal actors. About 9 o’clock iin the evening nearly one hundred ladies and gentlemen congregated in Kann’s Hall to partake of an elegém_t supper prepared in honor of the event of the day and to listen to short speeches explanatory of the purposes of the new organization. A brief address of welcome was delivered by President Goldsmith,after which the members and invited guests gratified their appetites at a table fairly groaning ‘under the weight of the choicest viands perhaps everset before a Ligonier gathering. Gemuethlichkeit seemed to reign supreme. Speechifying was continued until 12 o’cloék, when some of the more elderly guests quietly withdrew, while the younger portion prepared for ahop which, we understand, was highly enjoyed and passed off very pleasantly, o The officers of the new lodge are: President, Abe Goldsmith; Vice-Pres-ident, N. Wertheimer; Treasurer, Eli Jacobs ; Secretary, Leo Solomon ; MonJoseph Selig; Warden, Ilenry Sax; Gurdian, Jacob Frank. = = - The Independent Order B'nai Brith, (Sons of the Covenant), of which the lodgo just opened in this town is component part, was established in New York about 35 years ago. It was

instituted by a few Hebrew citizens for & purpose at (irst scarcely definitely understood. Theidea was to establish a brotherhood among themselves and their co-religionists for mutual aid and assistance; to help each other in sicknessiand in trouble; to lend a helping hand to the' poor emigrant seeking shelter on American soil; to care for the widow and fatherless, and to perform those general works of charity and benevolen¢e for which these singular people are proverbial. The founders of this society never supposed that their organization would advance beyond a mere beneficial society, and if they could rise from their graves and see the great brotherhood that this day, in its ramifications, extends from the Atlantic to the Pacific, from the Gulf States to the Canadian shores, having its lodges even in the ‘British Dominions, they would fail to recognize therein the little insignificant lodge of “Zion, No, 1,” started in New York in 1843. Nevertheless the fact is incontrovertible, and the 298 lodges of the order this day spéak in loud tones of the progress that has been made. With this great progress in lodges and means has also arisen a marked change in the composition of the order. Men of influence and ability, who in former days stood aloof, waiting, as it seemed, to see the certain downfall of the society, have now lived 'to witness its pronounced prosperity, and the best of Israbl’s intelligence, the highest of Hebrew intellect, the most potent of Hebrew influence, are now proud to enter the ranks and be enrolled under the Banner of the B’nai Brith. With this accession of intellectual means a change also came over the character of the order, and while all that was charitable and benevolent was securely retained, a desire for.a higher purpose was developed which eventually resulted in the recognition of the supremacy of education and the dissemination of intelligence, and the brotherhood -to-day numbers among its members men em--Inent 1n all the higher elements of intellectual supremacy. . What this organization will do in the future it is hard to say, but if its progress in time {o comesis to be proportionate with its advancement in the past, it will certainly be a power in the land; to be felt wherever brain contests with mus¢le or mammeon.

The order has its headquarters in New York, where the supreme or constitution Grand Lodge is located. This lodge has a jurisdiction over the ‘entire order, and meets in general convention every five years, every lodge in the order being therein represented by one elected member. The convention will meet next January in Philadelphia, and is already being anticipated with much interest. - The opder. is then divided into distriets, each one having a local specified jurisdiction, and of which thereare seven. Distriet Grand Lodge No. 1 is located in New York and has jurisdiction over the Eastern States. District: Grand Lodge No. 2 is located in Cincinn{ati and has jurisdiction over Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, Kansas and Colorado. No." 8 is located in Philadelphia and governs Pennsylvania and the Middle Stan. No. 4is in San Francisco and has jurisdiction over California, Utah and the Territories, No. 5 ig in Baltimore governing Maryland, District of Columbia, Georgia and the Carolinas. No. 6 isin Chicago and governing Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan and adjoining States; and No. 7 is in Memphis, having jurisdiction over Tennessee and the Southern States. Each of the districts have local laws of their own, governing in their own jurisdictions; but all are amenable to a general law, known as the Organic Law,which governs strictly the’ entire order, making it one universal’' republic as it were—each one potent in itself, but all subservient to the government of one chosen head. The order works harmoniously and for good deeds; its meetings are secret, but for no bad purpose. Its general alm is for the general good, and if it has any purpose desirable to be kept from public gaze, it is that the charity of the right hand may be hidden from the’ knowledge of the left, their aim being to “do good by stealth, and blush to find it fame.” The advent of a lodge of such an order in Ligonier is a step in the right direetion, and while we congratulate onr Hebrew fellow citizéns on their affiliation with the I. O. B. B, we hope those of an adverse faith will recognize in this step a desire to advance the interests of all humanity. We are‘indebted to Mr. A. Abraham, of Cincinnati, Secretary of District Grand Lodge No. 2, for the information ‘conveyed in the preceding sketeh. . : S |

The ConstiTuTroNAL Cararen REmMEpy is the first ariicle placed before the public that proposed to cure Catarrh by burlding up the Constitution. . 1t struck at the root of the whole difficulty, and thounsands opon thousands of letters bave been received by the proprietors, setting forth the marvelons cures, and, what is remarkable, curing not only the Catarrh, but all other ailments at the same time. This is what it nlwa{s does. The following etatement is only a sample of what we are constantly receiving frum well known people, to whom you can write, and not to bogus ones.— Catarrh and its attendant evils, cold in head, hacking cough, incif)ient consumptioa, headache, aing 1 back and loins, dizziness, languidness, Foss of appetite and general weakness, all leave together when the Constitutional Catarrh Remedy is taken as recommended. ; Mxsgses.
