Lafayctte ia prepared or the reception of the great army of Knights of Pythias who will invade the city next Monday for the week's encampment and jubilee. The tent city at Columbian park, which has been christened Camp Warner, in honor of John W. Warner of this city, colonel of the eighth regiment of the Uniform Rank. Knights of Pythias, Is growing rapidly on the green lawns at the municipal playground. The actual work of erecting the hundreds of tents In which the visiting Sir Knights will live during their week's stay here was begun this morning when experts from the Wagner company, of Cleveland, O., which furnished the tents, began putting up the canvas abodes along the lines marked out by Brigade Engineer Blccard and City Engineer John B. Truman. The camp Is arranged in military style with streets and avenues and a big plaza between the tents of the brigade officers and the privates of the different regiments. Mess Tent for One, Thousand. The mess tent where the army of visitors will be fed will be the largest mess tent ever pitched in Indiana, according to the local committees. It will occupy a position across the street from Columbian park and will seat nearly one thousand persons at once. The tent is ninety feet wide by 150 feet long. An army of cooks and waiters will be employed and the visiting Knights will eat in squads. It is expected 23,000 visitors will be here next week and the local restaurants will be unable to feed them. The hotels and boarding houses have rented all their rooms and private homes will be thrown open to the visitors, hundreds of people already volunteering to entertain visiting Knights. The streets in the business section are now being decorated. The deRlgns are elaborate, consisting of American

and Pythian flngp, with banners, bunt ing, shields, crests and emblems. Courthouse Headquarters. ' The courthouse, which will be the center of all activity, will be arrayed In flags and banners.

Clever Dancers

ELLIOTT AND At Local Theaters Murray. The Murray theater this week presents one of the best all round vaudevilles seen here this season. From the five stellar acts which go to make up a decidedly attractive and pleasing bill it would be a difficult matter to pick a headliner. A. J. Carlos in a novelty act is a cartoonist of great ability. His act is a rare one, something entirely different from the ordinary act of cartoonists work and must be seen to be appreciated. The pictures are above the average and will be appreciated .by the lovers of the picture line. Elliott and West comedy and eccentric dancers and singers have an act that is good in every respect, being somewhat different from all other eccentric singing and dancing acts which have shown here so far. That their act is a riot is shown by the applause. Smith Bros, do some heavy lifting that is quite out of the ordinary. Both brothers are big husky men whose muscles have been developed to an enormous size by their athletic work. Jeanette Adler who has been select ed by the Rossiter Pub. Co. to make popular the song "Somewhere This Summer With You" has more than succeeded. She has a beautiful voice and a choice selection of popular song.s. Carley Carlos is a Spanish dancer who is known as the International dancer. She has been all over the world and gives the favorite dances of all nations in a variety of costumes. It is one of the prettiest things ever seen anywhere. Gennett Theater. If the crowds that are filling the Gennett Theater this week is judge of a good snow, surely the Keitn stock Company is the best attraction of its kind ever seen at the Gennett, for they are breaking all records. Yesterday afternoon the company presented Mam Zelle, over two hundred people were turned away. Without any exception Mara Zelle is the most sensational play written which can be vouched for by all those who witnessed it. This same bill will be repeated again on Saturday night. Tonight, the feature play of the week will be seen, "Shore Acres," ex actly as produced by the big one night stand attractions. Mr. Keith takes pleasure in presenting this play as he carries the scenery and electrical effects necessary to give a first class production besides the excellent cast which he has arranged for this bill. Clever Reasoning. Rather an original lesson in political economy was that once tartght by the Japanese nobleiuan Awoto and thus translated by Sir Edwin Arnold in "Seas and Lands:" One evening as he wax going to th palace to take his turn in keeping tbt night watch he let ten cash drop out of bis tinder case into the stream and then bought fifty cash worth of torches to search for the lost coin. His friends laughed at him for spending so muc-l' In order to recover so little, and he reDlied. with a frown: "Sirs, you are foolish and ignorant of economics. Had I not songht for tbes ten cash they would have been lost forever sunk in the bottom of the Namerlgawa. The fifty cash which I have expended on torches will remain in the hands of the tradesman. Whether be has them or I Is no matter, but not a single one of the sixty has been lost, and that Is a clear gain to the country. Wadding Ring Mottoes. When posies or mottoes Inscribed Inside wedding rings were first introduced does not seem to be known, but from the sixteenth century nntit the middle of the eighteenth it was customary to have them engraved on rings. These mottoes seldom consisted of more thnn two lines of a verse, often of only one, but there are a few instances known where three lines were used. Some of these posies are very quaint and curious, and a few reach a high standard of poetic beauty. Tba South Kensington museum has a good collection of posy rings, and among them are the following Inscriptions: "United hearts death ouly parts;" "Let us share in joy and care;" "Love and tire happily." London Standard.
