K I'HO.VK IS IX SX IIOMiOW ISH- I,KSS AXI MKISTS WlltKH The turrltory in and around Sagl- naw was RiiMected to the most de structive electrical storm remembered by the oldest Inhabitant laHt Sunday. The bri I h of 1 1 Kh tn I n K played havoc with the telephone linen, trees and buildings. I'p at Lynx Hollow every telephone was knocked out of com mission, and In many cases torn from the walla and destroyed. The insulated wires melted and ran out. The firm place to receive damage from this storm was the Saginaw boarding house. Fortunately . this was not occupied at the time or most disastrous results might have hap pened, possibly loss of life. A bolt of lightning struck the side of the roof, making a small hole, going oompletely through thte structure, demolishing the Interior and making a huge hole at least ten feet In di ameter In the Bide of the building. The telephone was wrecked, being torn from the wall, and everything metallic melted beyond recognition. It Is at tills place. It In thought, the lightning followed the wires on Its course of ruin. The next place visited was that of J K. Noet, where the "Juice" tore off a couple of boards from the house, burning out the 'phone, and Jumped to the local telegraph wires leading to the home of C. J. Queen. Here it followed the wires across the woodwork, tearing1 off several boards. Two polos were shattered. and thus the lightning went on its course up Lynx Hollow, hurling great trees to tne ground In bii (Intern mid destroying telephones. j Other houses were struck, hut with little damage. The lightning was accompanied with rcuorts' like that of a pistol, and a number of the Inhabitants were badly frightened ftu viuven had a telegraph Instru ment which was pretty well melted ns a result of the electrical visit. This was without doubt the worst storm that section has ever had, and none are hankering after another such ex perience. Cottage Grove Western Oregon.

A four days' celebration was inaugurated 1n Boston today in observance of the centennial anniversary of the Insti tution of the first grand lodge of col ored Masons In America. Nearly all of the 42 colored grand lodges of regular Masons in the United States and Canada have sent representatives to the celebration, which Is being condncted under the direction of the Prince Hall grand lodge, V. & A. M., of Massachusetts. A Imrnrla til hlup InHi'o Masnna preceeded the opening of the anni sersary exercises in Symphony Hall this afternoon. The exercises were of a historical character and Includ ed the reading of the original war rant 4T.Q f,ftm ,), -QnH nl Kngland, which Is the foundation of aumority upon wnicn tne order In the United States stands. The chief festliro if t ha arnrnlDa, hnwans. was an oration by ex-Kepresentatlve William L. Heed, a past grand master of the Prince Hall grand lodge. i nougn the first grand lodge of negro Masons dates from 180S there were subordinate lodges among the negro residents of Hoston and vicin ity many years before that time. In 1775., Prlnre Hall, then 97 ran of age, wended his way to the quar ters of General Care nn Ciiim's Hill to become a Mason.

On Jiarcn 6 Prince Hall and 14 other ne groes were authorized to work under dlsoensatinn until rhov U-Ora an,hnr ized by charter. Prince Hall was not content with the limited powers contained in the dispensation from the army lodge Ho petitioned General Joseph War ren for a charter. His request was entertained, but before action could be taken Warren fell at Hunker Hill. Hall then applied to the provincial grand master of modern Masons of Massachusetts for a charter, This petition was rejected on account of his color. Prince Hall nnd liU fyilit,r elded to make application to for eigners for that which had been re- nisen mem at home.
