Raleigh, N, C., Jan. 16.—In examin-
ing the records of Hiram Masonic
Lodge No. 40 of this city, It was rec-
ently found that the regular meeting
of the lodge that was Begun on the
night of April 17, 1865, the night
news was recetved here that Lincoln
was shot, had never been office ily
concluded, and last night this formal-
ity was carried out with historic cer-
emonies.
John Nichols, 83 years old, former
representative in congress, who as
master opened the memorable session
of the lodge more than half a century
ngo, acted as master again last night.
Masons were present from many Sou-
thern states, since last night’s 'cere-
mony was preliminary to the"opening
here today of the'113th annual meeting
of the Grand Lodge of North Carolina.
On the night of April 17, 18f.;., the
city of Raleigh was occupied tjy Kil-
patrick’s division of Sherman’s army.
When the union soldiers on the out-
skirts of the city learned of the as-
sassination of Lincoln, retaliatory
measure were suggested and the offi-
cers had difficulty in holding the men
in check. While the civil population
of Raleigh was unaware of the assas-
sination and of the excitement among
the- troops, Hiram lodge opened its
regular meeting as usual, but in the
midst of it Captain W. C. Whitten.-of
the Ninth Maine regiment, detailed as
provost officer, informed Master Nich-
ols of the assassination and requested
that the meeting be dismissed in or
der that no gathering should add to
!the confusion when the news became
generally known. The members dis-
persed immediately without the for-
mality of closing the lodge.

PROHIBITIONISTS LOOK AHEAD

Chicago, 111., Jan. 16.—William J.
Bryan’s fight to compel the Democrat-
ic party to adopt a country wide pro-,
hibition plank at its next national con-
vention will be one of the subjects
discussed at the next meeting of the
national committee of the Prohibition
party today. Chairman Virgil G. Hin-
shaw said:
“In about four years the prime ob-
ject of the Prohibition party will have
been attained. Then will arise a sit-
uation in which the party will either
be politically supreme or become a
part of that other party which embrac-
es prohibition. These are the two
fates of the Prohibition party. As
long as so-called dry congressmen
vote for prohibitory measure's in con-
gress and then baUot for a ‘wet’ speak-
er or President and Vice President,
the work of the Prohibition party will
continue.” ^

Visitors 'Again Safe in Juarez.
ously-treated while in Juarez. Mayor
Melchor Herrera gives the same guar-
anty.
Juarez offers much for the interest
of the sightseer. Its civilization, so
different from that just over the bor-
der, the vestiges of former Invading
armies, its poverty stricken lower
class, its bi-weekly band concerts, its
medieval street merchants, many of
whom offer native herbs for the cure
of disease, and many other features
of thet town can not fail to attract the
visitor.
These things have failed to attract
for months past, because of the mili-
tary situation; but a different condi-
tion seems to prevail and the excur-
sionist apparently has no fear when
he crosses the boundary line that he
leaves the protection of the Stars and
Stripes behind.—El Paso Times.
