to say of the C. 0. F. demonstration in
that town on Aug. 2nd :—The pro-

with great interest by the crowds that
lined both sides of the streets through
which it passed. Arriving at the Park
the programme -was carried out with
dispatch. The trapeze, slack wire and
horizontal bar performances sof Prof.
De Alva were daring and thrilling and
were watched with keen interest and
oftentimes anxiety, by the, large crowd.
The lacrosse match between -Kincardine
and Mitchell was a hotly contested
one. Kincardine won by 3 to 1.
Reeve Thompson failed to appear with
his stalwarts from Huron, so Reeve
Bland pitted 'his men against a team
picked on the ,ground. Reeve Bland
won the first and third pulls. The
aecond pull was a stubborn one and was
awarded to the other team. It proved
unsatisfactory as some of the spectators
who should have known better inter-
fered.
GRAND SECRETARY'S REPORT.
To the Most Worshipful the Grand Master
and Members of the Grand Orange
Lodge of British America : -
MOAT WORSHIPFUL SIR AND BRETHREN—
In a000rdance with constitutional prao•
tice, I have great pleasure in presenting
herewith . my third annual report as
Secretary of the Grand Orange Lodge of
British America, which contains a brief
resume of the work transacted during
the past year, •
' We assembled'"tovday in the beautiful
town- of Sault Ste. Marie, in the far-
famed District of Algoma, standing as it
were, halt•way between the Atlantic and
Pacific Oceans, at the gateway of the
great chain of lakes through which the
commerce of half this bontinent passes,
and easily reach by magnificept steamers
from all parte of our great rakes, and
that well equipped road, the Canadian
Pacific Railway, reminding us of the
vastness of this great British North -
American continent, with its 2,000 miles
of fertile landon either side of where we
now asaemble.
Every Principal Grand Orange Lodge
under our jurisdiction has made its
,annual returns, and from these interest-
ing reports, conclusive evidence is
furnished that the year just closed has
been one of the moat successful in the
history of our Association. And
although returns from the Grand Lodges
are not quite complete, the figures
show as follows : by initiation, 4,341; by
depositing their certificate of member.-
ship, 1,638, and by being reinstated to
membership, 520. While our absolute
loss has been As, follows: by expulsion,
159, and by death, 315. The nett in.
crease being 6,0254 It must be a Mat-
ter of pride and congratulation tn all
concerned that the veterans of years
gone by are still to be found to our
ranks, sante of whorii have eorved faith:
fully and true for
more rethan hao

soot""ation are to be found in this newly
ferried County Lodge, and I have no
doubt but what the orgeaniaation of this
Lodge will ,be of great help to thew in
properly :carrying on the work of the
Association.
Six new Orange Yeupg Britons'
Lodgedhave been brought into exist:
enol during the past year, largely signed
requisitions being forwarded in each ins
Stance to the M. W. the Grand Master.
The picers of the Grand Lodge .0 0.
B, are men of energy and ability,
and from present indications it would
appear as if they were about to enjoy a
season ot the old-time prosperity which
made their Order once so Iamous all
over Canada.
Four Ladies' Lodges have also been
formed at the• following places : Hanna.
ton, Brockville, Addison and Athens
making in all ten Lodges of the Ledieel
Loyal, Orange Benevolent Association
now in working order. • It is understood
that the .Executive -of the Ladies' Ass
sociation will be preseutat this session
of Grand Lodge, and will ask for ,the
formation of a Grand Lodge with full
poweraa to carry on their own work
subject to the approbation and approval
of this Grand Lodge.
' Eight Royal Scarlet Dispensations for
the . formation of Chapters have also
been issued to the following places :
County of Cape Breton, N. S.; Districts
of No. 1, North Hastings; East Gwillim-
bury; Vaughan, and West Nipissrng;,
and to three Isolated Lodges, No. 1093,
Fprt William; No. 1608, Regina, and
No. 1617, Prince Albert, N. W. T.
The correspondence for the year just
past has been large and more than
double in volume that of former years.
rt has, howevet, been of a very pleasant
and satisfactory character; and the very
limited number of appeals that have
been entered againet the various decis-
ions, must be regarded as evidence that
the Association is at peace within its
borders, and that good fellowship and a
desire to live and act up to the Constitu.
tion appears to exist throughout our
entire membership.
There are now twentykfive Grand
Lodges working under the jurisdiction
of the Triennial Council, and from
pearly all these Lodges, recent annual
reports have been received, a careful
persual of which elicits the act that the
Orange association has included under
its banner a vast army of men, who are
faithfully and rioply working for the
relief of the sick and distressed, car-
ing for the fatherless and widow, and
standing forward for the principles of
our Protestant faith.
With the consent and approval of the
M. W. the Grand Master, 1 personally
visited the Provincial Grand Orange
Lodge of Quebec, at its annual meeting
held at the City of Montreal, on March
7th last, when I was delighted beyond
measure to witness the large gathering
wbich took place on that date ; over one
hundred good and true men sat down to
deliberate and work out plans for the
advancement of the Association in the
Province of Quebec. Among other mat.
ters that came under discussion, and
one which I had the pleasure of bring,
ing to their notice, was the organisation
of new Lodges in parts not fully ocotis
pied, and also a system of visitation by
the Grand Lecturer of Lodges in sparse.
1y' settled districts. The brethren of
the Grand Lodgewere unanimous in
their desire to maintain the hands of
those carrying on the work of the var.
ious Primary Lodges, and a well prepar,
ed scheme was adopted by the Grand
Lodge, which, if brought into operation,
would no doubt have a. very marked efs
fact in the history of our Association in
the Province of Quebec.
The following day I visited the Pro.
vinoial Grand Orange Lodge of Ontario
East, at their annual meeting at Tweed,
at which their was one of the largest
gatherings that has perhaps occurred
in the history of that prosperous Grand
Lodge. The M. W. the Grand Master
and other officers of this Grand Lodge
were also present and took part in the
proceedings. Great regret was express,
ed at the meeting at the absence of the
venerable Secretary of Ontario East, R.
W. Bro. Major A. J. Vaningen, who
has since passed away to his reward.
His kindly advice and cheery expression
of goodwill to all the brethren will Tong
he remembered by those who had the.
pleasure of attending the meetings of
the Grand Lodge of Ontario East, as
well as ot this Grand Lodge of which he
was Deputy Grand Secretary for many
years.
By special permission of the M. W.
the Graisd Master, and at the request of,
the officers of the Grand Orange Lodge
of the United States, I had the honor
and privilege of being present at the am
nual session of their Grand Lodge, held
in the City of Minneapolis, in the State
of Minnesota. I was surprised and de•
lighted at the large attendance of dele-
gates and visiting brethren, and'agree-
ably pleased at the'harinonious and care-
fulmanner in wbich th business of
Grand. Lodge was conducted.. • The
Orange Assoeiatton of the 'United States,
after years of battling for existence, ap.
pears now to have passed through its
most crucial stage, and if the brethren
are only true u

principles on which the '

The' Grand Orange Lodges of Ontario
West and Newfoindl'and have passel
unanirrmue reaolutiona favoring the pre.,
paration of aRoyal Arch (certificate to
be given to a member on his exaltation.
If a handsomely designed certificate
similar to that of the Royal Scarlet
sho'ild be prepared, 'I have no doubt
but that a vast majority of the brethren
would be pleased to obtain these certifi-
cates, would prize them highly, and
place them in a prominent place in their
homes to remind them of that beautiful
degree.
In the orgat$zation of new Lodges,
considerable difficulty is felt because of
the fact that we furnish only a limited
supply of the necessaries for carrying
on the work of the Lodge. This matter
,has been before the Grand Lodge on
more that one occasion, and it appears
to we that we should consider this clues.tion, which is one of importance, and
deal with it if possible during this see.
sion of Grand Lodge. A Primary Lodge
badly equipped at its organization is
only half prepared for duty; and in
some cases may never recover from the
Effect of doing its work haphazardly or
in a slovenly manner. I am of the
opinion that for a sum not exceeding
double that for which we charge at pre-
sent for Warrants, we could practically
equip a new Lodge with all the neces-
saries for carrying on its work for the
first two aqr three years of its history.
This is cel•taioly a very important mat-
ter and should receive the attention of
the members of, Grand, Lodge at its pre.
sent session.
The qua tion of supplying d uniform
regalia is o'ne which must be dealt with
sooner or later, and if it is considered at
the present session of Grand Lodge,
some of the brethren might afterwards
put their thoughts into shape in the
form of a uotice of motion which could
be discussed at the next annual meeting
of this Grand Lodge, and no doubt would
form tho basis of a solution of this vex,
ed and troublesome question being ar-
rived at.
To the brethren of British America it
seams almost unnecessary to say a word
on behalf: of The Orange Sentinel now so
well known throughout every portioniof
our jurisdiction, or of the splendid
premium pictures which from year to
year has been given to its subscribers
in addition to the valuable reading mat-
ter which from week to week appears in
its columns,. and which ought to make
The Sentinel a weloome visitor in the
homes of every Orangeman and loyalist.
During the past year, Bro. R. R. Clarke,
who was its chief editorial writer from
its inception, has been called away to
his reward i but the work which be car-
ried out so ably has fallen into worthy
hands and is continued with! much
vigor.
In concluding this report, I have great
pleasure in bearing evidence to the
kind assistance and prompt- attention
given to my correspondence by the
Secretaries of the '-various Provincial
Grand Orange Lodges, and to the M. W.
the Grand Master -for his advice and
kindly guidance on all occasions. From
time to time difficulties requiring thought
and judgment will arise, and it is a mats
ter for congratulation to find that after
the clone of another year we are at peace
and harmony within ourselves and the
desire of all seems to be in the building
up and strengthening of the bonds which
bind our vast brotherhood.
Trusting that our deliberations may
be conducive to the best interests of our
Aesociation, to the glory of God, and
the welfare of mankind.
I am, M.W. Sir and Brethren,
Very sincerely yours,
