Major Henry Irvine , J . P ., who presided , explained tho objects of the meeting , after wbich W . F . Black , Esq ., D . L ., in an eloquent and lengthy speech , fully set before those present what it was in
intended for tho Provincial Lodge of Tyrone ana Jiermanagu 10 ao connection with the Centenary Bazaar . He stated that the whole question had been carefully gone into by the brethren , and that after long and serious consideration they considered it more adviasble not to have a separate stall for the Province , but to give all contributions to the stall of the Grand Master of Ireland , his Grace
the Dnko cf Abercorn . Ho urged upon the Masonio brethren present that they , their wives , sisters , and friends , should work to the best of their ability to further the objects they had in view . _ A ladies' committee was then appointed , to receive contributions
and to meet monthly . A oommittee of MasonB was also appointed to receive the report of the ladies' committee nnd contributions sent them , and to transact
general basiness . At the conolusion , on the motion of Sir John M . Stewart , Bart ., P . G . M ., a vote of thanks was aocorded to her Grace the Duchess of Abercorn for her kindness in being present . The visitors were afterwards entertained to evening tea by the brethren of the Omagh Lodges .
NEW H AH FOR KIIAVINNING—The annual meeting of Mother Lodge , No . 0 , was held at Kilwinning , on the 21 sfc ult . Bro . the Hon . Thomas Cochrane R . W . M . presided . There was an excellent turn-out of members . It was resolved to exact annually from members of the Mother Lodge a test fee of 2 s , which , however , might be commuted for a lump sum of £ 1 . The R . W . M . stated that
there were three proposals before the Lodge with reference to new premises . The first was that the present building should be altered and renovated , at a cost of about £ 800 ; the second , that premises be rebuilt entirely on the present site ; and the third , that a Lodgeroom , hall , & c , be erected on a new site . Bro . Patrick Burns submitted a report , plan , and estimate of probable cost of new buildings
on a site belonging to the Earl of Eglintou , between the Abbey tower and the main street . The Earl had agreed to grant the site at a nominal feu duty , and the heritors had also agreed to patronise the scheme by giving off a small corner of the churchyard . The estimated cost was £ 1250 ; their available funds amounted to £ 850 , and he was willing to guarantee that the balance necessary should either
be raised or borrowed . This announcement was received with applause , and , on the motion of Bro . the Rev . W . Lee Ker , seconded by Bro . W . F . Allan , Glasgow , Bro . Burns' proposal was unanimously adopted . A committee , vested with full powers to proceed with the building of the new premises , was then appointed . The Officebearers wero re-elected as undemoted : —Bros , the Hon . Thomas
Cochrane R . W . M ., and as such Provincial Grand Master of Ayrshire ; Scott D . M ., Jack S . M ., Boyd S . W ., Clark J . W ., Wylie Secretary , Matheson Assistant Sec , Conn Treasurer , Rev . Lee Ker Chap , lain , Aird S . D ., Lang J . D ., Stevenson S . S ., Murray J . S ., Armour ( Irvine ) and Wilson ( Glasgow ) Architects , Aitken I . G ., and Gamble Tyler . An adjournment was afterwards made to the hall of the Eglinton , where deputations from Sister Lodges were entertained .
By the deeply lamented death of Colonel Shadwell Clerke , the great Masonio Fraternity sustains an all bnt irreparable loss . Singularly well qualified for the peculiar and multifarious duties devolving upon the chief permanent official of an organisation so powerful , wealthy , and influential as the Freemasons under the English Constitution , Colonel Clerke combined great power of work with infinite
amiability , tact , courtesy , and an ever-ready desire to oblige , and was as thoroughly efficient and popular as it was possible for a man in his position to be . The position of Grand Secretary to the Freemasons of England , rendered vacant by the death recorded , is one by no means easy to fill efficiently . It is technically in the gift of His Royal Highness tho Prince of Wales as Grand Master , but
the Craft is eminently a constitutional body , and the appointment will be doubtless made as heretofore , by long tradition , on tho recommendation of the responsible advisers who form the Grand Master ' s Council . Upon the wisdom of their selection much of the prosperity and stable contentment of the Order depends ; and its well-wishers are alread y hoping that the personal qualifications nnd special fitness
of candidates may bo carefully weighed , and that fantastic claims of whatever kind may be as carefully ignored . It will be difficult , 1 nni replaco tho widely loved , respected , and versatile . Shadwell Clerke , bnt hia loss need not be embittered by tho aopointment ot a ancoossor who would be condemned as unqualified by tho popular voioe— The World .
Iho Deput y Provincial Grand Master of Berkshire ( Bro . Johu norland ) and other distinguished members of tho Craft , wore present , on tne 1 st inst ., at tho installation meeting of tho Loyal Berkshire liouge ol Hope , at Newbury . Tho Senior Warden ( Bro . Harold ) , who ex
