wnmn SE PTTTSBUEG DISPATCH, EETDAY. AUGUST, 12. 1892. 10 THE MIGHTS' LEADER. Hon. Hush McCurdy, of Michigan, Chosen Grand Master at Denver. THE TEDE MISSION OP THE ORDER He Eajs 'in Pis Speech Is to Give Cups of Cold Water to the Weak. MASONIC CAREER OP THE CHIEFTAIN Denver, Aig. 1L The Knights awoke this morninc tired and weary after last night's lestivities, for there were recep tions without number, and there were few who did not attend. The weather was de lightful, and many of the commanderies started out early for the trips to nearby resorts and to the points of interest about the city. The Grand Encampment went into session at the usual hour, and the members of this body are the only ones who are doing any hard work. The principal event of this morninc was the firemen's parade given by the local fire department, in honor of tne visitors. Every engine and piece of apparatus in the department was out. Hon. Hugh McCurdy, of Corunna, Mich,, was this morning elected Grand blaster of the Knights Templar of the United States. Mr. McCurdy acknowltged the compliment in an address in which he modestly denied his own merit and eulogized the men who " had preceded him in that exalted position. He continued: The Hich Standard of Templarism. That you have in the past called such men to leadership Is or Itseir an eloquent declar ation to tho world of your lofty idea of Templailsm. Tlie men we choose as lead ers should be illustrative or ourselves as men, and should at the same tlmo urge us to bo manlier men. He should be a reflection of their character and au inspiration to a better character. A bouse is home only when its location and furniture are in per lect harmony with those who live in it. A leader of men is a leader only when he has .wwnnnnrrhMlr turn Trent. And careful Thinking, as the trait prows out of the very J Heart or the tree. Mutual reflection and inspiration of char acterthis Is the secret of growth in our common livelihood. This is the only solu tion of the problems how to grow larger in spuitas we grow older in years. We pre serve the youth of Teinplansm only by each year adding something to its inner lite. While we must rigidly adhere to the path of our fathers, yet we must not forget that the lutuie has some better things in store for us, and that they without us cannot be made perfect, Out-mission as Free Masons is not to destroy but tulfllI;out of their faith vt e mnst develop a larger, better laith. The one potent question is not wnat have they done for us, but what are we doing for them not what lias been their past, but what will be our past. What are we going to give the future? Those ot the past who left a magnificent heritage for tho luture were men whose am bition it was to contribute something of their on n to the age in which they lived. The Present Mission ot ths Ordrr. It was this spirit that Rnveus all that is of real value in art and science, architecture and literature. It has recently been said that American people, while they spend millions every year for works of art, are contributing almost nothing to the art treasures of the future. We love the word antique. We have antique architecture, but,iio modern aichitecture. Are we satis fled to be mere copyists, imitators? i'o. Unless theie be something original, in a week it is only copy. Are we as men, as Knight Templars, any thing more than copyists of ttie valiant Sir Knights ol the Middle Ages? Tholr mission as to rescue the sepulchre of the ton of Man from tho Saracens. Our grander mis sion is in nis name to give cups of cold water to his little ones. This spirit the world needs far more than it needs any ma terial thing which may be in our pow er to gie. It is by thus giving to the needy brother the cup of cold water in the spirit of our common biotherhood that we manl iest our loyalty to Him in whose life, resur rection and ascension we find an abiding inspiration. Men are not asking to-day how far back into the past does your history extend; but how far reaching is your present everyday Hie. What of your o"nt Are you adding to the ae in which you live? We cannot afford to. live lor our own gratification, nor for dis play of cross, plume, sword or star. Iiy a larger grow tn in ourselves and a wider in fluence upon our lellow men we must em phasize the meaning of our name and the signification ot oi'r symbols. Every Bond of Fellowship a Debt. Sir Knigbts, the woild needs us at our best. Every bond, said Savonarola, is a debit. In paying this debt, and nowhere else, all right lies. Our bonds of fellowship, not only as Free Masons with one another, but as men with our lellow men, are debts. In paying these all our rights lie. Man was not made lor tree Masonry, but Free Masonry for man. The age demands the enunciation of the principles of our order. Men need that deeper sense of the f acied ness of human life which comes only from a belief in the fatherhood of God and tho btotheihoodor man. By this sense alone may be dissipated all the spirit of discon tentthose differences separating men and threatening our peace. Eight Sir Judge Hugh McCurdy, thirty third degree, It. E.

Some years ago Mr. Wyllie was engaged playing all comers in the Central Clnb, Glas gow. After an unusually large numbor of duffers had. passed through his hands there was a lull. The onlookeis, apparently dis mayed at the havoc made, waited patiently, ever and anon casting eager glances toward the doorway in expectation of seeing a fresh victim enter. So did James, till wear ing at last he calmly and with measured de liberation placed a position on the innocent board, and looking round motioned Mr. J. Holm, a piajer of some re pute, toward him and queried: "Can ye draw that?" Mr. Holm looked in as wise a manner as possible, and then ventured to say, "Ye-es, I think so," but after the third failure he was not Just so sure. Determined how ever not to be beaten, he tried again, and again failed, to the evident delight of the spectators, who bad "tumbled" to some thing. Looking up at Mr. Wyllie for the Eurpose of remarking it was a "tough one," e noticed a twinkling or the usually placid eye, and leaning over the table asked, "Is it a draw?" With difficulty the gay old de ceiver got out the monosyllable "no," and then, as if repenting, added: "I never said it was." PRECEPT AND PRACTICE. An aged couple in Wooster are very fond of checkers, and play frequently. When he beats at the game she loses her temper, and declares she will not play again. It vexes him to have her net so, but be contiols the irritation, and talks to her about it. He tells her how wrong it is for ueople at their age in life to be disturbed by such trifles, and Bbows her so cleatly the folly of such a course that she becomes ashamed of her weakness and returns to the game and plays so well that she beats him. Then he throws the men in one diiection and kicks the board in an other, and saj s he will never play with any body who cheats so awfully, and stalks moodily to bed, leaving her to pick up the things. We think the above shows a trait of character that is quite pievalent among playeis in general. When winning the ma loiity of games all is well, but when losing the tendency is to get ruffled, and in many instances to act in a very unbecoming way. It is alwa s in keeping to follow the advice of an old-time player: "Avoid satire; win with modesty and lose with good temper." THE WORLD'S'CHAMPIONSHIP. ' O. REAY'S CRITICISM OP 0. P. BARKER. The dispute about tho championship has now almost spent itself, with the result that Mr. Wyllie's claims are almost universally admitted. It is true that Mr. Baiker stilt proclaims his determination to fight on his' own "miuaen-ueau" onty, anu continues at the end of bis nanio to ostentatiously flaunt the title "Champion of the World," which it pleases him to ay he has honorably won. Except, however, by a very small coterie, bis claims are laughed at or ignored. It is relt that, if it gives him pleasure to assume the title, the draughts woild need not trouble itself about It, for little harm can ensue. But it is lather disappointing that he should have taken up his present atti tude. Better things were expected from him. Ambition is said to be the last infirm ity of noble minda, but the mind that can lest content with Mr. Barker's thadowy claims to the title cannot be one of a robust type. CHECKER ITEMS IN BRIEF. Two more numbers of the "British Draught Player" have been issued by Mr. J. Gould, the Bristol nnd Dundee openings, compiled by Mr. F. Teschelelt, Champion of London, England. Entiles for tho Draughts Championship of Queensland closed on June 30, and play be gan in the first w eek in July at the Brisbane Draughts Club. In audition to the title, the winner will leceive a 2-guinea pliotograoh, the gift of Mr. Paul C. Paulsen, and Queens land Puncli for 12 months, presented by the Punch editor. Mr. Mar, the present holder or the title, is now tho draughts champion of Australia, and has intimated that he will not comnete in this year's Queensland championship tournev. Mr. Wyllie lias concluded a very success ful three days' engagement in Greenock. Altogether ho played 107 games, a sui prising number In such a short time. Out of these Mr. Wyllie on 97 games, the remaining 10 being draws. The lollowing gentlemen se cured the draws: Messrs. A. Grant, 4: G. T. Mitchell, 1; T. Benstadt, 1; R. McVicar, 1; Isaac Constable, l: R. Holdon, 1, and H. xiume, 1. Owing to difficulties of copyright, Mr. James Hill has now abandoned his intention or publishing a fourth edition of his valua ble little book, "Synopsis of Draughts Open ings." The American Checker Review, for the month of August contains a photograph of Mr. Lyman M. Stearns, draughts editor or the Derry News, and a short biographical sketch of this ardent worker in the field of draughts; by trade Mr. Stearns is a shoe maker, and tor pastime he devotes his time between chickens and checkers, a strong combination, and ono of the above is reckoned enough for ordinary men at one time, but Mr. Stearns seems to success fully handle both and attend to his lobular business besides. "What lia happened," asks a correspond ent of the Glasgow Herald, "to the doughty editor of the Colorado Boot Jack of late? Has he been 'put under,' or is he quietly com- Sleting arrangements to 'bust' Ferrie and arker, and capture the chief prize in the World's Fair tournament?" The above doughty editor's effusion turned up in PittsDurg on the evening of the 8th inst. We thought the idea or his re maining silent until the opening of the World's Fair was too good news to be true. M'DONALDIS UP AGAIN. t Its Production Increased by the Free Use of Nitro-Glycorlne Big Well Reported in tb Northwest Part otSlstersville Crnde StlU Advances. Several interesting phases in the south west fields were developed yesterday. The estimated production of McDonald went up from 18,800 to 20,000 barrels. Four new wells were added to the list of those mak ing 20 barrels an hour or more. Down at Sistersville a big well was reported on the 'Jesse Bowels farm. 'The revival of the McDonald field was brought about by a free use of nitre-glycerine, nnd the way some of these old wells respond to shots astonishes the operators in the field. Many of these old wells have been torpedoed from 7 to 15 times, and carloads of sand have been taken out of them, bat they invariably come to the front and resrtond when touched up with the gieasy compound. The production can only be kept up by Incessant shooting. The new wells added to the gauges were Greenleef A Forst's No. 3 MoMurra v, which is reported at'50 barrels an hour; the People's Gas Company's Nos. 146 and 1(8, at 40, and the Royal Gas Conipany'sNo. 1 on the Mark Bobb, Whloh is given as good for 20 ban els an hour: These, with the Sinclair Oil Com pany's Hos, 1 and 2 Kiik,bring tne aggregate hour prodnction of the larger wells from 40 barrels, which it was on Wednesday, to 145 an hour yesterday. The Forest Oil Company's No. 3 on the McClelland farm, northeast of Oakdale, which was reported to be showing for a well Wednesday, had made 115 barrels up to 7 o'clock yesterday morning, and they were deep enough in the sand to have struck any second pay that might be there. Greenlee & Forst will start to spudding to day at their No. 2 on the Noble heirs farm in the western part of the field and south west of tbe old Fife pool. They have made a location for No. 7 on the Marshall farm Just south of Noblestown. C. D. Greenlee said last evening that their No. 3 McMnrray occasionally went as high as 75 barrels an hour. Devonian Absorbing the Victor. The Devonian Oil Company has recently acqnlred a thtee-fourths interest in the Victor Oil Company, which is operating in the Sistersville region. When the Victor began work in that field a tew months ago the Devonian held only a three-eighths in terest. The Devonian shnt down on top, of the Gordon yesterday at its No. 2 Moo'rhead, southwest or McDonald, to move tho boiler. The Duquesne Gas Company is drilling a well on the Semple farm, two miles south west of Perrysville. The well in the Sistersville field which was creating so much talk last evening be longs to Jennings, Galloway, McQaaid Co., and is located on the "Jesse Rowels farm, about two miles northwest from Sis tersville on a 45 line, and on the Ohio side of the river. McQuaid, one of the owners, told W. B. Lambing at Sistersville yesterday that the well was only a foot in the sand, and had made 500 barrels in the 16 hours ending at 6 o'clock yesterday morning. If this is the case. It is probably the biggest surprise which has been sprung in that field, as It is away off to the northwest, and less than 60 rods due north of a dry hole drilled by Connelly Bros. & E. T. Johnson on the E. J. Colvln farm. A few rods east of It is a producer on the T. Elliott farm. There are no completed wells northwest of it, but the Buchheit Oil Company expect; to finish up a well this week on the Buchheit farm, about 100 rods to the. northwest. In the vicinity of the new well the Kanawha Oil Company owns a lot of lenses. Among them are the farms of George Shook, Philip Mendlck, Benedict Clay, E. Thlel, L. Rosalie, Issao Sole and John R. Clatter, if tbe Jesse Rowels well is as good as reported it will boom operations in that direction. The Victor Oil Company has finished up No. 2 on the Wells farm just below town, which is reported as good for 200 barrels. They are down 700 feet on the Mrs. T. R. Wells farm, east or Wells Island. The market advanced azain yesterday, going as high ns 57 bid. The sales amount to about 15,000 barrels. Uhe Glensbaw Oil and Gas Company was reported to have struck oil on the Herron farm back or Glenshaw on the Pittsburg and Western Railroad yesterday. There was also a well teported at Leetsdale on the Ohio river, bnt no particulars regarding it were obtained. Tbe Ganges. Tbe production of McDonald was 20,000 yesterday. The hourly gauges ot the larger wells at McDonald yesterday were as follows: Sinclair Oil Company's Nos. 1 and 2, 35; Greenlee & Forst's No. 3 McMurray. 50: Peo ple's Gas Company's Nos. 146 and 1(8, 40; Royal Gas Company's No. 1 Mark Robb, 20.
