Odd Fellowship originated in Eng
land in the early part of the 18th cen
tury. In the Gentleman's Magazine,
1745, the Odd Eellows' Lodge Is men
tioned as a place where very pleasant
and recreative evenings are spent.
The poet, James Montgomery, In 17
wrote a song for a body of Odd Fellows,
The Odd Fellows' Keepsake states that
the early English Lodges were sup
ported and their members relieved by
each member and visitor paying
penny to tho Secretary on entering the
Lodge. These allusions are sufficient
proof of the existence of the Order at
that time, but they tell nothing of Its
alms, objects and characteristics; from
other sources It Is known that the
Lodges were originally formed by work
lngmon for social purposes, and for
giving the brethren aid and assisting
them to obtain employment wheu out
of work. At first there was little or no
ritual and no formal mode of conduct
ing the business of tho Lodge. Theso
were matters of gradual and slow
growth. Tho natal day of American
Odd Fellowship was the 2Cth day of
April, 1819, the attempts made prior to
that to establish the Order here having
failed. The first Lodge was established
at Baltimore on the above date under
the name of Washington Lodge of Odd
Fellows. On the first day of February,
1820, the charter was granted to Wash
ington Lodge, No. 1, I. O. O. F., in
Preston, Lancaster county, England,
which charter entitled the Lodge to be
the Grand Lodge of Maryland, and o:
the United States of America.

the latter company Is not so badly oh

locomotives the Reading will order a

X Kuglne 903, tho largest and fastest
passenger engine iu America, built by
the Schenectady Locomotive Works
for tho New York Central aud Hudson
River ltallroad, was on exhibition in
the yard of tho Grand Central Depot
Monday afternoon, where it attracted
much attention. The great peculiarity
of this splendid motor is its tremend
ous driving wheels. There are four o
them, and each is 7 feet 3 iuches in
diameter. Thoy are the largest used
by any enlgue In the United States and
they are the largest set of coupled
wheels used on any engine iu the world,
These wheels have steel tires .3!$ inches
thick and are oporated by two cylind
ers 19 Inches diameter and21 Iuches in
stroke. The wheel base of the drivers
is 8 feet 0 iuches. The extreme leueth
of the boiler Is 30 feet and It is so high
abovo the rails that a six-foot man can
stand upright on tho track underneath
It. It has 208 tubes, each 11H feet long
and 2 Inches in diameter, The fire
box is 10 feet long and 45 Inches wide.
The boiler Is "underhung," that is,
88,000 pounds of Its weight is support
ed by springs, which are placed under
neath the axles of the drivers. The
boiler makes steam so easily that the
furnace doors left unlatched half the
time. Tho oil cups of tho connecting
rods and driving bars are forged to
them, which is a novelty lu locomotive
construction. The engineer's cab Is
very commodious aud bo high that It
permits tho engineer to stand erect
while driving the engine. The extreme
length of the engine and teuder over
all is GO feet. The tender Is a monster.
It will carry 0 tons of coal and holds
3,000 gallons of water. It has also a
scoop for taking up water while under
way. The entire weight of engine and
tender is about 85 tons. Ths height
of tho steam dome is 15 feet from the
top of the rails. In accordance with
tho prevailing fashion the smoke stack
Is straight and only two feet high above
the top of the locomotive. The engine
is provided with every modern attach
ment of value in the shape of Injectors
and attachments, Drawing a baggage
car and four drawing-room coaches No.
903 Is thought to be capable of making
the 143-mlle ruu between Philadelphia
and Albany in two hours. She has very
little bright work, but is a beauty from
a mechanical point of vlow and Is the
first of the twenty whloh the Central
expects to put ou the road to employ
in its passenger service next season.

Tho now system of voting at tho re
cent election has proved so highly satis
factory to the peoplo of all parties, that
we take plear ure In referring to the per.
slstcnt and commendable efforts of
Hon. W. M. Rapsher In urging Its final
passage through the Senate. Sonator
Rapsher ou May 18th 1891 offered the
the following resolution. (Seo Legis
lative Record page 2500).
Mr. Rapsher. Mr. President 1 offer
tho following resolution. Tho resolu
tion was read by tho clork as follows:
'Whereas, the sosslon of tho Logisle
turo of 1891 Is rapidly drawing to n
close, and whereas, tho masses of the
people aud tho almost solid press or
Pennsylvania are urgently demanding
the passage of the Baker ballot re
form bill before tho Legislature Anally
adjourns: Therefore be It resolved,
that tho Committee on Elections be
kindly admonished to report House
Bill No. 2, (popularly known as the
Baker ballot reform bill) to the Senate
with the least possible delay, so that
said bill can surely be acted upon be
fore final adjournment."
Tho resolution was twice read aud re
ferred to the Commltteo on Elections.
The Commltteo did not report and two
days lator (May 20th) Senator Rapsher
agalu called public attention to tho bill
by offering tho following resolution,
(See Legislative Record page 2CS5),
The time for final adjournment had al

that lt can surely printed and read ou

The Commltteo then reported the

While the re-election of President

What Ono Man Saw In One Hay.
"I saw three very curious things

Coming in on a suburban train I sat

She was a fnll blooded negro, and her
nalr was as straight as yours or mine
and as soft as velvet. 1 don't think
there is another snch case in the world
"Walking up Broadway later on I saw
an electric wire catch fire and burn in
twain, the pieces falling to the ground,
There were no cross wires nor any wire
nor anything within ten feet of it when
lt caught." lie rested awhile.
"Sayl Ahem! When I was eating
supper last night 1 found a worm i
black, shaggy worm an inch long in
fresh egg. You see I havo my eggs
served to me in the shell and eat them
with a spoon from the shell. As I dug
down into the yolk of one brought me at
af ashionable restaurant I saw something
black in the center, and pulling lt out
discovered what I have told you. The
egg was sonnd as a dollar. Tho way
figure it out Is that an old hen swal
lowed a worm just before the egg began
to form and the worm got tangled up In
the machinery and got stuck. Well,

Fear Hi-fore the Tlalit.
Testimony differs as to the feeling of
the soldier on going into a light, and the
many experiences related by Grand
Army men to their always willing lis
teners show that in their war histories
there wa9 no uniformity of either fear
or daring. The major of a New Hamp
shire regiment said: "1 always felt
timid wnen uie snot began to reach us,
but as soon as wo got into action I was
carried away by excitement. 1 am not
nsnally a profane man, and I have no
recollection of talking roughly to my
troops, yet a -good many of them have
assured mo that all through alight
would swear like well, like a trooper.
Another man, a colonel, said: "It'
all nousenso to say that it man doesn't fed
afraid in tho licgiimiug of n tight and all
through it. Of course he does. He has
reason. Sherman said of General Sum
ner that he wai the ouly man who grew
bolder as he grew older, but the only
man i ever paw who really seeiued to
want to fight, and to enjoy it after he
was lu It, wus tauter. New York Buu.
Poverty Is hard, but debt Is horrible,
A man might as well have a smoky

A I-awn Game.
Tetherball Is a new game of Eng
lish origin which possesses the pro
nounced advantage of being played iu
a few feet of lawn or courtyaid, A
post eight feet high Is set up, and to
this is attached a cord having at its end
a ball, The space of the grounds may
influence somewhat the length of the
string, which should be, however, not
less than eight nor more than ten feet
long, The ball is set in rotary motion,
and with tenuis racquets the two play
eis endeavor in turn to hit it. The
game U said to be exciting, and decid
edly a warm contest, as the ball proves
very elusive. Exchange.
