"Why Can't a Wcman le a
2?ascn ?
At a Masonic celebration in Austin,
Nev., years ago. General (then Major)
Sherman delivered the address,
abounding in wit and humor, clustering
around eloquent gems of
Masonic tradition. As a specimen
of the same the Reveills gave the
following extracts as a solution to
the above query:
" Women sometimes complain that
they are not permitted to enter our
lodge and work with the craft in
their labors and learn all there is to
be learned in the institution. We
leam that before the Almighty
finished His work He was in some
doubt about creating EYe. The
creation of every living thing had
been accomplished, and tlie Almighty
had made Adam (who was the first
Mason), and created him for the
finest lodge in the world, and it was
Paradise No. 1.? He then caused
all the beasts of thefield and fowls of
the air to pass before Adam for him
to name them, which was a piece of
work he had to do alone, so that no
confusion might therefore arise
when Eve was created, whom He
knew would make trouble if she was
allowed to participate in it, if he
created her beforehand. Adam, being
very much fatigued with the
labors of the first task, fell asleep.
and when he awoke he louna h.ye m
the lodge with him.
' Adam, being senior warden,
placed Eve as the pillar of beauty in
the South, and they received their
instructions from the Grand Master
in the East, which when finished,
she immediately called the craft to
refreshments. Instead of attending
to the office as she ought, she left
her station, violated her obligations,
let in an expelled Mason, who had
no business there, and went around
with him, leaving Adam to look
after the jewels. The fellow had
been expelled from the lodge, with
several others, some time before, and
hearing the footsteps of the Grand
Master, he suddenly took his leave,
telling Eve to go to making spoons,
as she and Adam were not in proper
QKo snrl fr?ld Adam.
and when the Grand Master returned
to the lodge he found his gavel had
been stolen, and he called for the
and junior wardens, who had
theJ^^jj^Bd, and demanded of
Adam^hat he was doing there in
stead of occupying his official position.
Adam replied that he was waiting
for Eve to call the craft together
again, and that they were not prop
erly clothed, which they were then
making provisions for.
"Turning to Eve, He asked hex
what she had to offer* in excuse for
the unofficial and uninason-like conduct.
She replied that a fellow
passing himself off as a grand lec1
liiiv ipcfrn
lUI'er, uau ucrii un
tions, and she thought it no harm.
The Grand Master then asked her
what had become of his gavel. She
said she did not know, unless the
fellow had taken it away. Finding
that Eve was no longer trustworthy,
that she had caused Adam to neglect
his duty, and having let one in
whom He expelled, the Grand Master
closed the lodge and turned them
out, set a faithful tyler to watch the
door with a flaming sword. Adam,
repenting of his folly, went to work
like a man and a good Mason in
order to get reinstated again. Not
so with Eve. She got angry about
it and commenced raising Cain.
Adam, on account of his reformation,
was permitted to establish lodges
and work in the degrees, and while
Eve was allowed to join him in acts
of chanty outside, she was never
again admitted to assist in the regu
lar lodge work of the craft. Henc*
the aeason why a woman cannot be

Lisbon Alliance Hicks Out cf Traces
A Crumb of Comfort for Gov. Till
man?Some Pertinent Queries.
Tlie following resolutions wer<
unaniuiouslv passed by the Lisboi
Alliance:
Resolved 1st, That this Alliance
ren? \vs its rdlh'em-e to the Farmer*!
I
wmm&S&k win i WESmmrn
i Mohement and to its leader^ Gov. B. !
R. Tillman.
2d. That we do not believe that
Gov. Tillman has been, is, or ever
will be disloyal to the Alliance or the
farmers' interest in South Carolina,
notwithstanding the efforts of cerfm'r?
(vtat tail politicians to persuade
x ^ _
tlie members of the Alliance to the
contrary.
3d. That we favor the Ocala de- .
j mands, but this Alliance accords to
| Gov. Tillman the right of free .
j thought and free speech; and the i
! time has not come to sacrifice Gov. ,
j Tillman for the very doubtful chance i ,
j of getting the sub-treasury or any | ,
j other scheme.
j 4th. That if it is the purpose of j
j the leaders of the Alliance to deliver j ]
! our organization to the Third Party, j
| we would like to know it at once. <
| 5th. Any scheme of legislation
j that is not strong enough to com
j mend itself to the Democratic party
of this State is too weak to command
support, for the Democratic party is
still good enough for us. /

| WHERE MOTHERS BUILD HOUSES. 3
Woman in Zululand Is the Architect and
Constructor of the Domicile. <
The Zulu woman is the architect and
: builder of the Zulu house, and the style .
j of architecture is known in the colonies ]
! as "wattle and daub." It looks like an ]
' exaggerated beehive, for the Zulu mind {
j has this peculiarity, that it cannot
j grasp the idea of anything that is not
| round or eliptical in form. There are I
! no squares iu nature. To build her (
j house the woman traces a circle on the ^
ground, fourteen feet in diameter, and
and getting a number of long, limber
branches, she sticks them firmly into
the ground, and then bends the tops
over and ties them with fiber obtained
i from the numerous creepers or "mon- 1
key ropes."
j Then she twines Quicker creepers in
J * " ^ at! opAnnrl fliu j
i anu OUfc Ul UIOC suvaj cm ai uu.iu ?.V ,
j circle of these spaces, about twelve j
! inches apart, and then taking watile (a
kind of coarse grass or reed) she thatches
j the edifice, leaving a small hole at the 1
i top for a chimney and another hole j
| three feet square for a door. In front ^
{ of this she builds a covered way extendI
ing outward about three feet, and the ^
! exterior of the house is tinished by a j ]
J coat of "daub," or mud.
She then seeks a nest of the white
I ant, and, digging it up, obtains a ,
quantity of white clay, which she beats ! ]
! to powder, dries and then, mixing it <
i with water, kneads it until it is quite
; smooth. This she spreads over the ^
ground inside the hut, and beats it
j carefully uutil it is quite hard and free {
! from cracks. This floor a good housewife
will scour twice a day, with smooth ''
I stones, until it is like a piece of polished 1
i marble.
The fireplace is near the door, and is .
! simply a ring of this clay to confine the
! embers in one place. The other neces- |
' i A ? - i?J i. _ i
| sanes iouaa in a nut are a ounuie ut |
spear shafts, some drying tobacco and
several bunches of millet hanging from
the roof. Grouped around the walls !
are the three amasti (a species cf sour
milk) jars, the native beer jars and ]
j open jar* f<?xJi?d.diug gcaiiu ,
,^^jU?-eour3e the dense wood smoke ris- '
ing coats the roof, millet and tobacco
with soot, and long "fingers" of it hang j
in every direction; but the floor will be
clean enough to eat on, and as long as
that is so the social il.s. Grundy of the i
j Zulu i3 satisfied.?Sheffield Tele;*rapli. 1
A Doorknob Problem. <
The other day a man who is so fond
; of mathematics that he is never so
j happy ij> when setting himself hard
sums, tried "to give some sort of an avi
erage of the amount of work and time
I and strength and health and patience
j and good nature that could be saved if
j everybody opened and closed the doors
j of all the houses by means of the door!
knobs. Of course he had to give it up.
Hut think of it one moment. Think
i of how many doors there are in one
, j house, and how much time it takes
i ofotv u-wb tA spvnh nfr the dirt which
! need" not be there if the finders closed
' j upon the doorknob instead of the door.
Watch yourself, and watch your friends
as they let themselves in and out. They
j turn the knob if there is no other way
' of entering, and then transfer the
j hand to the door, feel of the wood for
awhile, and then push it to with the
| fingers upon the paint instead of the
j knob.
"Show me a human," said the wife !
, of Thomas Carlyie, "who can open j
i and close a door without slamming it, j
j and without leaving a mark upon it,
and I will show you some one whose
1 acquaintance you would do well to cul;
tivate."
Mrs. Carlyie evidently understood
the use of doorknobs.?Harper's Young

Big: Time in the Bird Family.
In the rear ot tne national DauK 01
> Chester county a large pole was raised
yesterday afternoon, on the top of
which was a marten's box. The martens
soon gathered and flew around the
box as it rose, it appeared they were
" inspecting it. Peeling perfectly satisfied
with the affair they signed the lease
and took possession. "At home" cards
will be issued in a day or two, as soon
as Mr. and Mrs. Marten have arranged
their apartments.
Upholstering and wall papering is
^ now the order of the day there. On
5 the occasion of the house warming it
is stated that the Robin family, from
Wawa; the Humming family, from
' Oakbourne. and Mr. and Mrs. BaJtitimore
Oriole will be present, as well as
l the Misses Catbird and Blackbird.
Owing, it is said, to the fact of a faiu_
ily feud which has existed since the
days of Brian Born, the English spar1
rows will be given the cold shoulder
p and will be rigidly excluded from the
drawing rooms. Mr. American Eagle
will be stationed at the door to receive
the cards, which will be issued for the i
eveut.?West Chester (Pa.) News.

The Heat Sort of Trunk.
The best trunk ever made, or that
- j ever will be made, was that old time
I | horsehair covered trunk. It would |
j defy any baggage smasher of the pres- j
. j ent age. Why it went out of style I !
I never knew. It was a good seller and !
I seldom came back for repairs. Next j
j to it the best trunk now made is the i
i cloth covered one. They are much i
j better than the tin covered ones, and
! yet it is almost impossible to convince
. j a customer of that. I do not know
i whether you are aware of it, but most
! Euglish travelers to this country buy
3 | their trunks over here. Our trunks are |
5 ! no better tiian the English trunks, but j

The various forms of leave-taking

is generally awarded to them. "Adieu"
signifies "To God I commend you."
"Good-by" is a contraction of "God
