m?. THE DARLINGTON NEWS. ■MB 1HUH8DAY, MAUOU 1, 1888. HEHBT T. THOBFIION, EDITOB; A FINE OPFOBTUMITY FOB DAB- L1K6T0K. With the exception of the con struction ot the Cberaw A Darting ton HuUronA aoU the opening of the Bank and the Factory, there has bees no sofaeme which has done as Moeh for Darlington dating the Nineteenth Century as will be ac- eomplished by the coos: ruction of the proposed Darlington and Harts- Tills Railroad. By it will be opened up to the trade sad influence of Darlington the very best section of the Conn ty—one which from the very nature efita situation and surroundings has always been more or less allied to her, bat whose affinity will be all the elooer aad dearer by reason of the iron bonds. That the pro jected railroad would be of inesti mable ad rootage to all living along its line, Is beyond question; lands now worth ten dollars an aero Would be doubled or even trebled in value before the new enterprise has been established a year. That It will to a very great degree pro mote the interests ot the prosperous people of the western portion of the County in enabling them to rsaeh their Court House quickly, oouveuientiy, and at a trifling cost, loalao apparent. There is no doubt, too, that '.bo road would be a good paying investment; its ears wruld be Ailed slmnet every day with both passengers and freight, and if the stock no holders should be for innate enough to obt tiu for its management the controlling baud of ooe of onr great financiers, not many years won Id elapse before baodfome dividend r would be de dared. Altogether, this new pro jeot is for the benefit of all parties concerned, end if we are correctly informed, their hearty co-opera lion and aapport is all ^hat will be necessary to make it an established fact. Baalatos au-m of Darlington be alive to your interests! come forward promptly aad assist in bringing to your very doors onr friends of west Darlington, the mo t prosperous eitiaens ot the County. If yon do this, and if the people along the lino will give the infant enterprise their most coiyiUI support and en couragement, nothing will be want- fag to enable ns to embrace thin glorious opportunity wbieb will aarriy redound to the benefit of ns all aad to the increased prosperity of Darlington County.

In the hall the festive board was spread In the form of the letter U U* with tbe opening toward the entranee. This table was twenty- five feat across, with the sides near ly one hundred feet. Tbe band stand was on the sta^e, which was decorated with evergeons and flow en. On the right aa yon entered, in triangles of evergreeu, were the numbers 11, 9, 7 and 3, while ou the lefl, just opposite, were other triangles with the numbers 12,10, 8 and 6.

We have looked forward to this boor with pleasure. We nave known all along that the meeting of the Grand Lodge here would be of lasting benefit to onr Ledge. Much osetnl informa tion has been obtained, from which we ho|ie to receive benefit. Onr anticipations have been fully rea I x' d, sad we have enjoyed tbe so cial fnalnres of this meeting as well Many pleasant friendships have been formed which will last as long as we worthily bear the name of Knights, like Damon and Pythias let ns ever be knit together by the grand priueiplea of our Order, then will it live forever.” Vim toast: “OnrOrder—Recog nizing the universality of tbe hn man brotherhood, this organisation is intended solely to disseminate the pm tuples of friendship, charity and benevolence” Responded to by Mr. Fugle, of Colomblia. The replv of Mr. Fngle was amnsing and instructive. He was as usual very happy iu bis remarks. He said, “That the great mission of the Order was to raise up those who tall; to sooeor the widow and or phan. Thia is onr privilege and pleasure, and is what we are sworn to do. 1 have studied tbe parimee of tbe organisation and watched its growth with interest. How often have I seen help extended to those bound down by sorrow. How many would have bt-eu thrown upon the cold charity of the world but for the efforts of this Order. How many have bad the bitterness of their last hours ameliorate I by the knowledge that their dear ones woald be left in tbe hands of friends and brothers. Onr Grand Lodge is now established on a firm founda tion. In the choice of our efficient Grand Chancellor, elected day, wo may confidently look forward to an ever onward movement. His con nection with tbe press givea him an additional advantage in his work. There is no denying the fact that the press is a strong power, and that by keeping our Order eon stantly before the public its beat interests will be served. It reals with ns to aid him in his doties, without a a bright future before us if we would work tor it. We may at least be con- seioas that wo have done onr doty to the best of onr ability all that mao ean da God grant we may tnoosed.” (Applause. Muaic.) Tbe secoud toast was: “The Sa preme Rank—For year* the Urea were dim upon tbe altars ot tbe young Brotherhood, hot iu the high noon of tbe present the sunlight is reflected from the bright shields of gallsnt Knights.” Responded to by Mr. A. 0. Mustard, of Charles ton, who said: “The Supreme Lodge, Mr. Presi dent and brother Knights, should find a warm place la each of onr hearts. Tbe Supreme Lodge is the imperial mother of each worthy daughter who, as a Lodge, does bei full duty to the high principles o our Order, whose motto is Friend ship, Charity, Benevolence. Friend ship snob as that which impels at to leave onr homes at the call of a brother in distress, wherever the Pythian flag is onfurled; Ch iniy which urges us to be kind in Our judgment of their weakness, which is the oommon heritage of man Benevolence m all that that grand good word implies. Ten years ago I had the pleasure of instituting the Lodge here. Before I came then I heard that the ladies had determin ed to treat me to tar and feathers. To day we are received with dis tiuguished kindness at the hauda of the people of Darlington. I would eujoin upon the yoeuger members of tbe Order that study necessary to make them fully ao quaiuted with their duty, so as to make the Knights of Pythias a lower for good. Wh«n first I vis ted you we were struggling for a toot hold la the State. To-dav the Order is ooe of tbe brightest stars in the fitmameut.” (Applause. Music) The third toast was: “The Grand Lodge of Sooth Carolina—Its laws are reason and equity; its doctrines inspire parity of thought; its inten tion, 'Peace on earth, good will to men.’" Mr. Henry T. Thompson responded as follows: “In rising, brethren, to respond to tbe toast of the Grand Lodge of South Carolina, l caouot but con- gratnlate you on tbe successful and harmonious termination of your ar duous labors of the past two days.

There are 27 Regiments in 20 odd States. He recommended that a division be formed in every Lodge. There are two divbio is in Okarisston. Tbe*r K ve a magnificent parade on the h inst, and this circumstance alone has done more to advance the interests of th«* Order aud increase ita membership than anything else. (Applause. Music.) The several Lodges were then toasted in turn. To the sentiment, “Myrtle Lodge, No. 3,” the oldest Lodge in tbe State, Mr. H. E Bruce, of Columbia, said: “Myrtle Lodge is not the banner Lodge ot the State, that honor be longs to Charleston; bat she h -ld •loft that banner wh-n it was al most trailing in the dost. She stands leadv tedo her whole duty t» the Order at all times. She now has 130 members, bar h"pes tor 400 more She is always ready when called upon; she has slways re spouded to ealle trom other Lodges. We mean to snataiu that record lor all time.” (Applause. Mu»ic.) In reply to “Stonewall Lodge, No. 6,” Mr. Bergman spoke ot tbe pleasure with which be had oome to Darliugton as a Representative of Stonewall Lodge. He said that tbe kindness of tbe Darlington knights had quite won his heart and that when he returned to Char leston he would be pleased to say to bis brothers of Stouewall Lahe that they bad firm friends and al lies in Lodge work, in ih« members of Darlington Lodge, Na 7. Mr. Berg’uan'a pleaaiug manner and affable address won for him rounds ot applause. (Music.) Tbe next regular toast, “Hsrmo ny Lodge, No. 8,” wsa responded to by Mr. M. L. A. Gardner, of Flore ooe. Amoug other appropri ate remarks, Mr. Gardner aaid: “1 am glad to say that there ia harmony iu Harmony Lodge. There is a link ot Friendship binding us all together. May that common bro: herb.tod be ours, aud may we go forward in the good work until we are called io taoe the Supreme Chancellor of the Universe.” (Ap plause. Music.) “Caroliua Lxlge, No. 9,’’ was re S|M>nded to by Mr. G A. Schiffley, of Cbar eston. In responding to this sentiment Mr. Schiffley gave an interesting sketch of bis lodge.
