ELKS PREPARE FOR TKIEin DIG PARADE Tomorrow's Show Will Be Next Important Event at Annual Convention in Detroit. "GARRY" HERRMANN RULER CINCINNATI MAN ELECTED WITH- . OUT OPPOSITION ATLANTIC CITY SELECTED AS PLACE FOR ' ltll CONVENTION.

Detroit. Mich.. Julr 13. "GarryHerrmann of Cincinnati it now the big man in Elkdom. He was elected grand exalted ruler by acclamation. ' Other officers chosen, all re-elected, are: Grand treasurer. Edward Leach, New York; grand tyler, P. H. Shields, Clarksburg, W. Va.: grand secretary, Fred C. Robinson, Dubuque, la. There was a warm contest over the lection of the grand secretary. Two Michigan men. George D. Bostock of Grand Rapids and David McArron of Port Huron thought that Robinson hnd had the Job long enough. The rote was probably the heaviest ever polled in in Elks grand lodge election. With the choice of officers for the , ensuing year made most of the Elks re looking forward to the grand parade Thursday as the next event of real Importance. Today's program Is one of entertainments, except a short session of the grand lodge In the morning, at which the result of the vote for grand secretary was announced. In the parade the lodges will march In the order of the number of their charters and the first ones follow closely the size of the cities they represent New York is first, Philadelphia second, then comes Frisco. Chicago, Cincinnati, Baltimore, Louisville, St. Louis, Boston and Indianapolis. Past Grand Exalted Ruler William E. English of Indianapolis has the honor of being the dean of the former rulers of the order present at the reunion. There are fourteen present, including Sammls, retiring exalted ruler. Atlantic City In 1911. Atlantic City secured the 1911 reunion with as little trouble as Herr- - mann grabbed the grand lodge reins. Boston's competition was so perfunctory as to fall even to place that city fa a commanding position to campaign for 1912. Portland. Ore.: has Just about . cinched that meeting already. Its campaign has been the real big noise of the political side of the convention. At Eleven O'clock. As the hands of the big city clock reached 11 o'clock last night every 'light In downtown Detroit was extinguished. Only the searchlights played uposj the Woodward avenue portico of the city building, where stood the famous Columbus, O.. chorus of Elks. 'Should old acquaintance be forgot" Faintly at first the voices drifted out over the throngs that choked the streets. Then the thousands of Elks took up the strains of the order's toast. The song spread contagiously until thousands more, men and women, finished the last lines of the old song "In the days of Auld Lang Syne." For the first time this week the city was impressively silent for a full minute, until an enthusiast started the first line of the song again and the crowds yelled: "Not In Detroit" NOTICE OF STOCKHOLDERS' MEETING. The Stockholders of the Richmond Natural Gas Company are hereby notified that a- meeting of the Stockholders of the Company will be held at the office of the company at No. 43 North Eighth street in the city' of Richmond on Saturday morning.

BENEFITS OF UNIONS. tVht the Cigarmak.r. Have Don to . Relieve Distress. In the Cigar makers' Official Journul of recent Issue a summary is given of the amounts of money paid lu beneSt to members by the organized craft during the last thirty years, says the Minnesota Union Advocate. The amount is striking in its magnitude and gives an Impressive Illustration of the advantages of trades unionism to those who are In the movement and to the country at large In relieving distress and providing for temporary wants In the case of hosts of industrious workers who would without this aid b? thrown at times on the charity of the communities in which they live. The gross sum paid in benefits from the time when the system was adopted. November. 1S79. Is $8,033,763.51. the amount for 1900 alone being $502,. 963.02. The chain of provision for the relief of members in need . Includes strike, sick, out of work aud death and total disability benefits and loans to traveling members. The different grounds on which relief is granted cover almost every possible case of need, and the sum luvolved in providing for them is very large. Yet the cigarmakers make no boast of the great benefaction they bestow and seem to regard it as only a matter of course a necessary incident of their existence as an organized craft. Thus modestly and unostentatiously do the labor unions of the country go on in their good work, taking care of their members who happen to -meet with reverses or disaster, saving them from the cold and upbraiding band of charity, sustaining and encouraging them until the clouds pass away and belplug them continually to better conditions of life. Yet they are condemned by the thoughtless or the vicious as unholy organizations, conspiring agalnsi the best Interests of the country and working no end of evlL Another most gratifying fact shown up In this summary is an increase in the membership of the clgurmakers' unions in the country aggregating 21,34S during the last eighteen years. 3.040 of which was the gain for 1000. Throughout the greater part of that year the conditions of trade were very unsatisfactory, but the unions went on taking in new members and adding to their numerical and financial strength. Their enterprise and constancy of purpose In the face of great difficulties are worthy of the highest commendation. Tibet la said to" have been a kingdom so long ago as 313 B.

DAYLIGHT FOR WORKERS. St. Paul Employers Favor Early Closing Plan. Eighty-nine employers In St Paul have gone on record as being In favor of giving their employees the advantage of having more daylight" recreation by allowing them to start worU earlier in the morning and finishing their day's labor earlier in the afternoon. Some time ago the National Daylight association, which is a well known organization in the east, through its St. Paul representative. C. A. Alstrom. began the campaign in favor of giving all laborers an opportunity to start to work earlier in the morning so as to finish early in the afternoon through the months of May. June. July. August and September in facb year. A postal was sent to the different firms asking if they were willing to Join the movement, and the replies received expressed-a hearty support. "We ask that employers allow their employees to start work at 7 o'clock and get through at 4:30 in the afternoon." said Mr. Alstrom. "We believe the health and welfare of the employees would be benefited by this arrangement, and I am sure the firms that have agreed to give their help 'more daylight' will be gainers by the movement"

INSPECT CORN CLUB

Committee Will Visit Patches Being Tilled in the Boys' Competition. WINNERS GO TO PURDUE Inspection of the work done by members of the Wayne County Boys Corn club will be made by the committee in a short time. Each boy has been instructed to arrange his quarteracre of corn and be in readiness for an Inspection visit by- the committee. Although this visit will have much to do with the committee's selection of members who are to attend the short course at Purdue university next winter, their selection will depend largely on the number of bushels harvested next fall. There are two hundred and fifty members of the club. From this number fifty will be selected on the merit system to attend the university. The boys are required to keep a record of the number of days of work, the number of times, their patches have been tilled, the amount of fertilizer used and the number of bushels harvested. The committee in charge of the club believes from the reports that there will be close competition, i BLINDNESS FROM HEAT. Locomotive Firemen Risk Loss, of Sight Every Day. Here is a bit of testimony given n Chicago recently before tbe federal arbitration board which Is trying to adjust the long pending dispute over wages between western railroads and their employees: "E. A. Milllgan. a fireman discharged from railroad service recently for defective vision, testified that tbe Intense beat generated in tbe furnaces of modern locomotives frequently caused firemen to lose their sight." The present study of occupational diseases in this and other states should establish definitely to what extent firemen are disabled by the beat and glare of tbe tires which they feed. ' If their labor tends to destroy their sight what shall be said of a government which does not require that the industry share the burden of loss when a blinded fireman is compelled to quit bis post? Compensation for- workers disabled at their tasks must -become a part of the cost of service in this country as it is in others. Chicago Daily News. Labor Tempi For Chicago. Plans have been prepared for a labor temple in Chicago which will cost $100,000 and will, it is said, be one of the finest buildings in the country owned by a labor organization. Carpenters' union No. G2 is to have the building erected on land purchased by it several months ago at Sixty-fourth and South H.ilsred streets. Tbeplambave been prepared, and the contracts for the work have been awarded. It is expected that tbe building will be ready for occupancy next fall. Tbe building will be five stories In height, of pressed brick and terra cotta.

At Local Theaters

B. P. O. E. Song. That the management made no mistake In bringing the big act. "Ye Colonial Septette" to the Murray this week- is shown by the hearty aprpeciation indicated for the big act aa well as the meritoriousness of this musical production, which as a whole is novel and artistic. The seven performers, each an artist, combine dramatic ability with finished musical 'inclination. The act is staged in a manner worthy of the best scenic productions on the legitimate stage. " Weston and Cushman hand out a good line , of talk and .their songs are well received, the B. P. O. E. song being especially fetching. Every member of the order should hear this song. Tommy Overbolt does a most pleasing dancing stunt, and the acrobatic and balancing feats of Marvelous Ed, the one legged performer, are surprising to the spectators. His finish is especially fine. The motion pictures tell a story, apparently true to life. Here is just one more reference to Halley's comet which a French scientist declares was known to the authors of the Talmud long before Halley came Into existence. This French scientist quotes from the Talmud: "Two wise men of Palestine, Gambiel and Joshua made a voyage on the sea. The first had brought with him bread to eat. The second one in addition had brought flour, saying to him: 'How didst thou know we should be so long on our journey that thou didst bring flour?" To which Joshua' did answer: 'There is a very bright star which appeareth every seventy years and which deceiveth mariners. I have thought that perchance it might surprise us during our voyage, lead us astray, and thus prolong our voyage on the sea. Hence it is that I have provided myself with flour." The first attempt to manufacture watches or clocks on a large scale in America was made by Eli Terry, a Connecticut Yankee, who invented wooden wheels for his clocks. New Murray Theatre .

Richmond People Have Good Reason For Complete Reliance. : Do you know how To find quick relief from backache; To correct distressing urinary ills; To surely cure sick kidneys? Just ' one way your neighbors used Doan's Kidney Pills; Have proved their worth in many testa. Here's Richmond testimony. David Hershey. 316 S. Thirteenth Street, Richmond. Ind., says: "I waa troubled for some time by kidney complaint and tbe remedies I tried did not help me. Often I was hardly able to straighten on account of sharp, cutting pains across the small of my back and the least exertion or any cold I contracted caused the kidney secretions to pass too frequently. Doan's Kidney Pills, procured at A. G. Luken & Co's Drug Store cured me, and at that time, I publicly recommended them. I now gladly confirm all I then said, as I still firmly believe that Doan's Kidney Pills are a splendid remedy for kidney disorders." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. .
