a past grand '4 exalted ruler of the I. B. P. O. of Elks of the World and a charter member of Brooklyn Lodge, according" to reports is laughing again at the boys in the lodge.

It seems as if Mac was successful in playing a big part in the election of delegates to the Elks Grand Lodge Session which will be held in Detroit, in August There were eight delegates chosen and the so called MacFarland slate was elected. Those elected'wereStephen" B. Mayo, Benjamin F. Butler Thomas L. Higgins, Henry H.

Ham, Exalted Ruler Percy A. Buchanan. Charles T. Magil and Walter A. Peterson.

Some of the brothers claim that the procedure was in the election but from all indications it is believed that those electetd will remain. MacFarland is one of the best known fraternal politicians in the country and many have marveled that he was never a candidate for grand exalted ruler. Louis Van Dorn, one of the popular members of the lodge was chosen as esteemed loyal knight. He succeeds Malvin Smith. We did not mention him in last week's issue.

Much interest is being shown in the annual excursion that will take place on July 20. Robert L. Zeno is chairman of the committee. The candidacy of Henry Ham for the post of grand esteemed loyal knight has received the support of a member of lodges on Long Island. "Man With Hoe" Speaks At Nazarene Church Edwin Markham, the distinguished white poet, appeared at the Nazarene Congregational Church on Friday evening, June 13.

The world famous poet, author of "The Man With The Hoe," and many others, gave splendid readings from his works. The affair was held under auspices of the Goldstone Literary Society of the church, of which Prince Simmons is the president. Mr. Markham, who is 78 years old, was introduced by the Rev. C.

Gretnwaye of All Souls Church. Dr. S. Parkes' Cadman 1 came in later spoke. The choir of the church provided special music for the occasion.

Mrs. L. H. Caldwell also sang. The occasion brought together a trio of stranget interest.

The noted poet was in his earlier years of his life a hornyhanded son of toil; he was a farmer a blacksmith and a cattle and sheep herder in the West before he turned to literature. Dr. Cadman in his earlier years was a coal miner in the old country. Dr. Proctor, pastor of the church where the affair was held, was a farmer in the South in his younger days.

Mr. Markham found another poet on the program in the person of Miss Frank Ball, 15, of 1615 Pacific street who shyly read her own little poem entitled "May." glllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllimilllfU SLUGGISH I bavx taken Black Draught 5 3 for a.long time, and it has 3 helped me wonderfully," writes 5 3 Miss Theo E.

Soon after the will was filed for1 probate, the four sons, contending that their mother lived at 648 Lafayette avenue, Brooklyn, in Kings County, and not at Sea Cliff.

They were given ten days in which to file affidavits from various persons to that effect Accordingly, they canvassed Brook lyn and New York, and filed about 30 affidavits to the effect that the late Mrs. Smith had been a resident of Brooklyn.

Smith and made William H. Smith jr. the true and lawful attorney for his mother.
