Number 10
VISIT OF THE ELKS.
A Herd of the Antlered Animals
at Large in Toledo.
On May 14, 1804, the Lewis & Clark
expedition, numbering 30 persons, left
the mouth of the Missouri on its long
journey into the unexplored wilds of
the far west.
On June 13, 1903, 40 brave- men left
tne shores of the Willamette toexnW
the hauuts of the noble Elk in Lincoln
county. They certainly showed tact
and wisdom, for it was "In the good old
summer-time" all along the line. These
pilgrims left Albany in a special car,
witnabandof their "own, to visit the
scattering members of the herd. Ar
riving at, Toledo, they fonn nnito n
number browsing around, with heads
and tails in the air. They had a pleas
ant time renewing old acquaintance.
At 7 p. m. the band gave a splendid
concert forninst the opera house, to
the delight of the lesser ones and the
entire SHtisfaction of all. .
At 9 p. m. the opera house was
thrown open and there assembled a
curious throng of animials, the Elks
predominating.
Brother, Davis, M. D., of Albany was
escorted to the throne to be master of
ceremonies of the social session. He
at once called the session to order and
three fine selections were furnished by
the bund. Dr. Davis then appointed
his police for the evening. (Police, you
know, are to keep order.) Brother
Clyde Fox of Summit gave a very fine
selection on the piano.
Pursuant to an old and well-estab
lished custom the police did their duty
well. At thia time Brother Eli Gaither
was delegated to act as secretary of the
meeting. The duty of the police was
to bring before the master of cere
monies anyone caught disobeying any
or tne rules of the order.
Then came t he address of welcome
to the visiting Elks bv Brother Ben
J ones of Toledo, who gave a very graphic
account of the introduction of the Elk
as far-reaching as is the east from the
wesc. He paid a glowing tribute to the
noble animal, with its fleetness qf foot,
quickness of eye and gentleness of dis
position, that brought rounds of an
plause. Brother Bilyeu of Albany
responded with a well-chosen and log
ical address, which was also received
with warm demonstrations of approval.
Brother Burggraff then rendered a
solo and was promptly fined $1.25 for
not knowing when to quit.
Brother Neissgavean inspiring solo-
chorus by the audience entitled "In
the Good Old Summer-time."
Brother Ross rendered a fihe solo.
accompanied by Brother Clyde Pox
upon the piano,
Brother Eli Gaither gave a solo en
titled "Little Black Me," that was full
of pathos and feeling.
Then the fun commenced. Culprit
. ... .
alter cuipnt was arrested and an
promptly fined some for omission
ana some tor commission. All were
commission men before the bar. If
any were forgotten, they expressed no
regrets. The "pair o" docs" was verv
clever indeed. The nolice arrested
Brother A. A. Fuller and . arraigned
him at the bar not for what he had
not done, but for what he had done.
The mnster of ceremonies, in a few well
chosen remarks about Brother Fuller's
fine baby girl three weeks old, told him
he ought to be ashamed of himself;
that he merited a floe, etc.. but would
order that the secretary should
t j
him a sum of money with which his
little daughter Florence might procure
a souvenir of the occasion. The money
was paid, Brother Fuller expressed bis
gratification and said the little- daugh
ter should have the present, with the
name and number of the lodge present
ing the same. Then the entire assem
bly wbh invited to the banquet room,
where "the tables fairly groaued" with
the good things prepared by a commit
tee consisting of Brothers Lee Wade,
rred Stanton and Hurley Lutz.' The
English language is inadequate to fully
describe the menu. Think of evcrv
thing good, and you have it.
After supper came more boiiim. two-
steps three-steps and no steps at all.
At 5 a. m. of the 14th all took the
train for Newport. After spending a
very enjoyable day there thoy departed
for home at O n. m.. leaving manv
well wishes and hopes of a return visit
in the future. Adonis.

Grant reports a way-up time-even If
it was somewhat expensive.
Superintendent Con Sullivan of the
C. & E. came in with the Elks last
Saturday, but evidently got a little bit
timid and went on to Newport. Really,
the Elks are not as wild as they look." '
The Racine, Rite Derrick's new
launch, made a trial trip to Yaquina
Monday in charge of Engineer Enos.
The boat caused but little trouble and
showed all the speed that had been pre
dicted. H. K. Lugger, an old resident of Ya-!
quina, came In Saturday evening with
the Albany Elks, of which herd he is an
honored member and a towering mon
ument of sobriety and culture. In fact,
it is said the Elks Insist upon Mr. Lug
ger accompanying them on all their ex
cursions on account of his dignified
bearing, yet mild and gentle disposition.
The directors of the Toledo Ceuie
tery Association desire to build a side
walk from Toledo to the cemetery this
season and also Improve the grounds.
This will require some money, and all
owners of cemetery lots who are de
linquent are urged to band the amount
to T. P. Fish as soon ax possible. This
is an important matter one in whioU
every citizen should be interested.
Commissioners Stanton and King
made an official trip last week over the
Siletz bay-Newport rond and t he enntu

country. We'll probably have all of
them some day if a littln ninBi,n. i.

Geo. McCluskey has forsaken i
porarily, at least the honorable and
well-paid vocation of toachlng the
youag Idea how to shoot and become
editor and proprietor of the Reporter.
While years of experience eannn in
doubt the wisdom of Brother McClus
key's act, we hope he will meet with
that degree of success merited by his
Integrity and honest endeavor to mould
public opinion along unselfish and
broad-minded lines. No honest man
will score an utter failure, notwith
standing the cynical construction of
the old adago; "Do others, or tlmv ll
do you."
