DURNO WASHINGTON', May 2S. Meet Mister Kbrlner! , Mr. Shrlner Is preparing for a Bhort sojourn In the city of Washington from May 30 to June lu, during which time he hope to put on the greatest fraternal convention ever attempted. Mr. Shriner stands a mere l.ooo feet In bis stocung leeu lie weighs the modest total of T5.000.0UU pounds. As he walks down Pennsylvania avenue, halt a block at a stride, his pedal extremities 150 feet long and encased in shoe with soles 15 feet thick, by careful managing he keeps from scraping off the side of the buildings. The Shrine Kei on his head would Just nicely tit over the dome of the Capitol, while the shaft be Is leaning hi weight upon is the Washington Monument. - I liaised upon an average man, five feet eight lnche In height and weigh ing 150 pounds, this enormous giant represent a composite picture of the 500.000 Sbriners and their families and friend wno wiu.oe present in nasn Ington for the annual gathering ot the Ancient Arabic IJrder of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine. An Avalanche of Food. Arrangements tor feeding and housing this enormous delegation have been completed on an unprecedented scale. Figure announced by the com mittee in charge ot the work are appalling in their magnitude. An Idea of what Washington 1 up against may be obtained from the following: The hens of six state must work night and day to lay eggs enough for the convention. Bread will be consumed daily at the rate of 250.009 loaves, or 2,500.000 for the ten-day session. . A minimum of 60.000 quart of milk will be needed dally tor the visitors. Two hundred and fifty thousand pounds ot meat will go by the board each day. These figures are all under-estlmates, and do not, of course, Include an equal amount of food required for the regular population of the city. As to bousing: Thirteen hundred ptrilmans will ue parked in tne terminal varus uunng the stay of the convention. One hundred and forty hotels already nave received reservations tor capacity. ' . . - Every rooming bouse and private residence in me cuy wun a vacant room has been registered, together with the rental, and these rooms are being allotted as fast a they are registered. . Brings Money to wasningion. As to the financial end. Washington stands to profit by the Shrine Invasion to the -extent 'of between 340.000.000 and $50,000,000. The bank clearings in the city of San Francisco following the meeting of the Shrine there last year exceeded byt 122,700,000 any corresponding period in the history of the city. As but 300,000 attended the coast convention, in com parison with the 600.000 that will be In Washington, the forty-to-flfly million dollar estimate is considered conservative. Washlngtonian have been -urged to get in a supply ot staples tor a two-week period before May SO by the Shrine committees. In order to amommodate the 1.300 pullmans to be used, on May 30 every freight car will be moved out of the yard1 and none will move In for two weeks. Perishable good consigned to Washington, together with absolute necessities, will be dumped at Baltimore and Laurel, Md., during the convention and trans ported to Washington in trucks. Despite the magnitude of the proposition, however, everything has been carefully and efficiently handled and absolute assurances havo been given that there will be bo shortage of food, and that, none of the visitors will be unable to find accommodations! at a reasonable price.-- '.- PARK TO PARK LEVIATHAN TO DIRECTORS TOMAKE MAIDEN IMEET IN JUKE1V0YAGE IN JULY DETROIT.
