members at the association meeting wanted a concatene-tion the next evening, If possible. With his usual energyMr. Moore set about to accomplish this. The weather wsaclown to yero that evening, but seventeen old members ceported for work. There were only two to be initiated. Onoof these was an Englishman, who is traveling n thiscountry ucow, and this concatenation adds one more br-eige country to the roll of membership. Bro. Moore actedas Snarlc, Elliott Lang as Senior and J. L. Lane as Junior,l3ro, Moore says that Jim Lane "put tice gentleman fromLpndon, England, through tice paces."

Though the class was small, tice evening was an en-joyable one and the concatenation, in the fullest sense Oftice words, was worth the while,

fly far one of the most enjoyable and successful .concatenations hoid under the jui'iscliction of lohn J. Rumbarger,Vicegerent Snark for tic., Eastern District of Pennsylvania,took place on Thursday evening, January 12, in PhIa1ei-piule. There was noi one minute of the five hours the catsand kittens spent together in the gardens and on the roottical was not full of ruin. Snaric Rumbarger has the upport of all tice faithful In luis territory accU had it nut bßsflfor another gaticering of lumbermen the same evening theattendance Would Icavo been larger. While but six candi-dates appeared the numbec was great enough to interesttice half icundre(l cats who answered the summons of theS ccc rk

There is never any hitch to the Quaker City concatenations and everything was ready at the appointed hour.Tice gardens were laici out in a spacioucs room near theLumbermen's Exchange in the Bourse Building, and theoccion latcli was set out with considerable care and fore-ticoccglìt, In the words of the song "For didn't they ranble,for didn't iicey ramble," tice purblind kittens had theireyes wide open before they were halt through gamboling,urged on by the catswho wore there to see the fun, Thehalf dozen purring Innocents, "got all that was coming toticeni."

lt was nearly 9 O'clock when the Snark and his fellowoi11cerc had concluded tice ceremonies and the assemblagea(ijourneli to the Bourse restaurant. At one end of thebig rothu was arranged a table for the officers and the hit.tens, the older cate being seated about a dozen smallertal)les. The courses came along quickly and the hunger ofthe merry throng was 50011 appeased, while now and thencame ali outburst of song as the orchestra played somelopcclar ditty of the stage. Henry William Rudolph EmilGuenther was there in his accccstomed place as toastmaster,and with his Paraphrased motto "Lot no good man escape"he put them all to tho test.

One after another they spoke earnestly, lightly or tolda story worth telling, and Dro. Joe Rogers favored thegathering with a violin solo, There was sincerity in the(ocie of one or two who spoke of what Snark Rumbargericas done for the Order in the East, whicic drew forth ahearty "for lie's a jolly good fellow." The last 81p of coffeeand the Inst puff of cigars marked dangerously near themkiniglct hour, and tice parting "one, two, three" broughtthe night's frolic to an end.

A llfllqlco feature of the concatenation held by Vicege-rent Joe Wallace lic Nashville during tice meeting of theHardwood Manufacturers' Association was the resolutionIntroduced by Lewis Doster, the popular secretary of thatassociation. Mr, Doster's motion was that all Hoo'Hoo on

We hadjust brought the initlatton ceremonies to a close and haillined up and were posing for a flash-light picture, Thewalls au1 celiliug ut tic diclag laaH la the M!flnnuiHotel, where our concatenatiotu was held, was draped withflags and bunting of various kinds, which icresented a verybeautiful appearance, when tice magnesia powder was exploded by. an electric spark, tice flash set fire to some of thedecorations, and in an Incredibly short space of time titefire wast all over the wails and ceiling, with the result that

our very bountiful repast, which had been furnished by tileMidland Hotel Iceolcie. was entirely ruined. We had se'cured tice services of the Railway Club of this city, whowere going to fccrnish us witic a few songs and stories, andwere to crack a few jolies; and Mr. James J, Corbott, ex'champion prize fighter of the world, was also on the program and was to entertain cts in his characteristic way, ailof which, togeticer with ticri music anti luncheon, promisedto furnish n very enjoyable evening.

Columbus, Kan., Jan. 5, 1905-I was very naicli enter-tamed by " Notes und Comments" in last issue of The Bui-letiui I vas surprised to learn you were of the MaeGregors,i)tit of course your tracing of names proves (?) it conclu-sively. Being a good Scot you should know, but I bclicveyou arc mistaken in giving the sex of the soothsayer whowarned Lochici before the battle of Cuhloden You willremember that L,ochiel in answering lutti offered him auuiantic, with the suggestion to-

" Draw, dotard, around thy old wavering sight.This inauutle, to cover the phauitouuis of frighuL"

This language would certainly indicate thuat (lue seer %'asa mau. Besides, tuo Scot would talk that way to a lady.

The Saxouis uvero accus-tooted to warn their guards to look out for high halls-hutyou see the connection. Strange how llames and ternas arehanded down through the centuries.
