’ _ THE KNiGHTS OF PYTHIAS. Their Twenty-fifth Anniversary—The First - Annual Recept‘ioa_x of the Ligonier K, of P.—A Brilliant Social Gathering — Brief Historiecal . : Sketch of the Order, 3 ‘On Tuesday last: Feb. 19, the Knights of Pythias all over the courtry celebrated the Twenty-fifth anniversary of the foundation of the order,’ by balls, banquets and other appropriate exercises. The members of the order in ‘Ligonier were not to be outdone in this matter by their fellow-Knights in other localities, and made the event the occasion for their First Annual Reception, which came off on Tuesday evening at City Hall. It was one of the pleasantest and most enjoyable soisociai gatherings Ligonier has had ‘this season. The hall was tastefully ‘decorated with flags, banners and streamers emblematic of the order and bearing its colors, red, yellow and blue. The ball opened about 9 o’clock with the grand march, and from that hour until about 3:30 a. m., forty whirlinyg, happy couple kept the musicians busy and made the scene a perfect tableau of beauty and pleasurable excitement. There were a number of guests present from Elkhart, Albion, Plymouth and other places. About twelve o’clock the tired dancers wended their way to the Waverly and partook of an excellent supper. The affair was in all respects carried out in admirable style, reflecting great credit on the managers, and those who were for tunate enough to take part in the entertainment will long remember it as one of the best conducted and most enjoyable affairs ef the season.

Among the many secret orders, which now flourish in this country there seem to be none that so rapidly made its way to a front rank in popularity as have the Knights of Pythias. The following brief sketch of its rise and progress will, therefore, we have no doubt, be read with interest:

HISTORY OF THE ORDER.

The preliminary meeting, at which the ritual of the order was first read and the Initiatory steps in the establishment of the order taken, was held in Washington, Feb. 15, 1864. The founders, or those who were present at the first meeting, were J.. H. Rathbone, Robert A. Champion, D. L. Burnett, E. S. Kimball, W. H. Burnett, Charles H. Roberts and William Beder. The first lodge was formed in Washington and grew out of the meeting, Feb. 19, 1864, and the name, ‘‘Knights of Pythias,”” was then given. The 'officers were J. H. Rathbone, worthy chancellor; Joel R. Woodruff, vice chancellor; J. T. K. Plant, venerable patriarch; D. L. Burnett, worthy scribe; A. Van Derveer, banker; R. A. Champion, assistant banker; George R. Covert, assistant scribe.

This lodge at Washington, the mother of the order, died in a short time, and no efforts have been made to revive the charter. She has left, however, numerous progeny. In 1864 a grand lodge of the District of Columbia was crganized. Despite discouraging circumstances, lodges continued to be formed in the District of Columbia, and in 1867 the order began to reach out into other fields. In 1867 lodoes were organized in Pennsylvania.. In 1868 delegates from a number of grand lodges met in Philadelphia and agreed on a plan for a constitution for the supreme lodge. The constitution was submitted to the different grand lodges and, it being ratified by them; another convention was held in Washington, August 1868, when the supreme lodge was organized with the following officers: Wilbur H. Myers, supreme venerable patriarch: Samuel Read, supreme chancellor; Clarence M. Barton, supreme scribe; W. A. Porter, supreme banker and C. F. Abbotl, supreme guide. The first annual session of the supreme lodge was held in Richmond,‘ Va., March 9, 1869; the second at New York, March 8, 1870, and the third at Philadelphia, April 18, 1871. The work of the order progressed, and grand lodges were organized in forty-five states and territories, in the District of Columbia and the province of Ontario. The fourth annual session of the supreme lodge was held at Baltimore, April 16, 1872, and opencd with evidence that peace prevailed and.progress still continued. On July 13, 1886, the supreme lodge convened for the first time outside of the United States, when it met at Toronto, July 13, 1886. Last year’s convention was held in Cincinnati. The demonstration made at that time by the uniform rank was conceded by regular army officers who witnessed it to be the finest display ever made by any semi-military body. “The following shows' the condition of the order; Grand lodges, 47; subordinate _lodges, 3,500; membership, 300,000; amount on hand and invested, $5,000,000. At the Cincinnati session Gen. William Ward, of Newark, N. J., was elected supreme chancellor. The grand lodge in Indianapolis was organized in October, 1869. There are now in the state 208 lodges, of which 106 are active. The membership 1s nearly 16,000. Within the last Pythian vear, which does not end until June, thirteen new lodges have been established, and it is the hope of the officers to establish twenty-five new lodges before the year closes.

The human being who thinks it needs neither sympathy nor friendly help in this world, is the human being who never gave any—without a consideration. And, sad to say, there are many of them.

At a recent ball in New York a young lady wore a pair of satin slippers, studded with diamonds and topazes, the money value of which was $l,OOO. These trifles *light as air’’ are what make socialist and anarchic speeches heavy weighted—and convincing to a very large number of thinking people. :

President-elect Harrison was counted in by a lot of so called ‘‘Presidential Electors’’ on Monday last. The people of the United States voted against him by over 100,000 majority—not plurality. But, then, thisisa government of the people, and by the people and for the people.’” What bald-faced liars, we are, anyhow!

- The Indianapolis Evening News—an excellent newspaper—is the only journal, claiming respectability and independence, that backs up Dudley and Wood. In this matter the News has fairly earned a monopoly of partisan fealty, and Mr. Harrison shouldn’t forget it when the loaves and fishes hre being passed around. '

Thirty years ago there was but one republican vote cast in Dubois county, Indiana, and when the judges came to count the ballots and found it in the box they wisely concluded that some wag put it in as a joke, and they threw it out, There are a few more republican votes cast 'there now, but scarcely enough to bother counting them. :

The Jewish Messenger rebukes a young Jewish preacher who the other Saturday in a sermon spoke of the ‘“‘supposed founder of Christianity’’ as ‘‘an amiable young enthusiast of moderate education.”” It says: ¢While themes of this character are out of place in the synagogue, no Jewish preacher has aright to refer contemotuously to Christianity’s founder. We resent prejudice against Judiasm; let as be careful lest we show the same spirit toward other religions.”’

The just and unjust .stood on slippery places Friday morning, and the rubber shoe manufacturers deserye more credit for the fact that in this town there were no broken bones reported, than the merchants who scattered ashes on their side-walks. We would Jike to know, simply as a curiosity, whether there is any stata, county, township or municipal law, which permits a citizen’s neck to be broken on an icy pavement, and compels his heirs to bury him without compensation. The courts ought to be called upon to decide this matter. The storekeeper or householder who was teo selfish, or mean, or negligent to scatter a few shovelfuls of ashes or sand in front of his premises on such a morning as that of Friday last, should be made in some way to feel that the public have rights that must occasionally be respected. A fine of from $5 to $25 would be about the right thing.

This world has,in its much-disputed period ot existence, produced a great number of grand, and 'in some cases, magnificent rascals—forgers, embezzlers, defalcators, etc.—not to mention petty thieves innumerable. But in the long and sickening list of these firstclags and second-class and low-down rascals, Dr. Le Caron, who last week recited the story of his infamy before the Parnell Commission in Londor, will fill an' unoccupied niche in histery. His infamy is of a grade so deep and damnable that no words have ever yet found . their way into a dictionary that could properly characterize It. A man of education and good business ability, with every fair show that our beneficient government and largehearted people so cheerfully accord to all honest, well-meaning, industrious men, this dastardly scoundrel, with a madlice that must have been born of the devil himself, preferred instead of earning an honorable livlihood to sell his soul, hisconscience (?,) his manhood —no, no, his miserable self—éforamess‘ of pottage, which must now taste bitterer to his palate than that that poor Esau sold his birthright for. Patrick Henry remarked, on an occasion that has become historical, that Cemsar had his Biutus, Charles the First his Crom‘well and other tyrants and traitors have 'had their avengers—and it will not be {forgotten that Carey had his.
